Leitura recombinativa generalizada após procedimentos de correção com fading em pessoas com atraso no desenvolvimento cognitivo

Estudos têm investigado a aplicação de procedimentos de correção, como o ensino de cópia, ditado e oralização na promoção da leitura recombinativa em pessoas com e sem atraso no desenvolvimento cognitivo. A utilização de técnicas de apoio, como o fading, ainda não foram testadas nesses procedimentos como mais uma variável que poderia estar favorecendo de forma imediata, a leitura recombinativa generalizada. A presente pesquisa relata dois estudos. O estudo 1 com duas etapas, tendo como participantes dois alunos com atraso do desenvolvimento cognitivo. Na Etapa A, os alunos foram submetidos ao ensino das relações entre palavras ditadas e palavras impressas (AC) e em seguida, aos testes de equivalência entre figuras e palavras impressas (BC) e palavras impressas e figuras (CB). Após estes testes, foram aplicados os testes de leitura das palavras de ensino (MALA, PATO e BOCA) e das palavras de generalização (formadas a partir da recombinação entre as sílabas das palavras de ensino). Os participantes apresentaram apenas a leitura das palavras de ensino, após ter sido documentado a formação de classes de equivalência entre figuras, palavras ditadas e palavras impressas. Em seguida, foram aplicadas as sondas de controle pelas unidades silábicas, e após essas sondas, aplicou-se um procedimento de correção com destaque das sílabas específicas (sílabas identificadas após a aplicação das sondas de controle pelas unidades silábicas) durante o ensino de combinado de cópia, ditado e oralização. Após quatro exposições ao procedimento de correção, os participantes continuaram a apresentar somente a leitura das palavras de ensino. Na Etapa B, introduziu-se, no procedimento de correção, um fading in nas sílabas específicas. O participante MAR apresentou a leitura correta de todas as palavras de generalização após a segunda aplicação do procedimento de correção e o participante CLA após a terceira aplicação. Os participantes apresentaram a transferência de função para as novas formas verbais AB, AC, BC, CB, AB, AC, BC e CB. Estes resultados indicaram a necessidade de avaliar os dois procedimentos de correção de forma isolada. No Estudo 2, foram selecionados dois participantes com atraso no desenvolvimento cognitivo. Foi aplicado o mesmo delineamento experimental do Estudo 1, sendo que um participante foi submetido ao procedimento de correção e um outro, ao procedimento de correção com fading in. O participante FER foi submetido a procedimento de correção com fading in e o participante JOS ao procedimento de correção com destaque das silabas. Os dois participantes apresentaram a leitura recombinativa generalizada após a condução do procedimento de correção com fading in. Apresentaram ainda a transferência de função para as novas formas verbais AB, AC, BC, CB, AB, AC, BC e CB. Os resultados sugerem que o procedimento com fading in favorece de forma imediata a leitura recombinativa generalizada em pessoas com atraso no desenvolvimento cognitivo.

Metodologia para análise exergética-econômica de plantas a vapor para geração de eletricidade consumido resíduo de biomassa amazônica

A disponibilidade de recursos energéticos em um país impacta diretamente no seu desenvolvimento sócio-econômico. Com a elevação dos preços dos energéticos no Brasil, a eficientização do uso de energia tornar-se uma atividade estratégica para o setor industrial. Com esse intuito as avaliações energéticas empregadas nesse setor objetivam otimizar a eficiência dos seus sistemas térmicos. Essas avaliações de desempenho energético são baseadas na Primeira Lei da Termodinâmica e são capazes de identificar apenas as perdas de energia, diferente da avaliação exergética que permite qualificar essa energia perdida. Devido a essa análise de qualificação da energia ser sofisticada e demorada, tornar-se necessário desenvolver um protocolo que seja executado de forma rápida e que contemple as particularidades da Amazônia, tanto o clima quanto a sua biomassa. Para isto, este trabalho propõe e aplica uma metodologia através do emprego de análises energéticas, exergética e exergo-econômica em uma planta de potência a vapor instalada no Estado Pará e operando com ciclo Rankine. Com aplicação dessas avaliações obtêm-se as taxas de energia e de perdas de energia, as taxas de exergia, as taxas de destruição de exergia, as taxas de custo de cada produto e o custo monetário da capacidade energética produzida pela planta em R$/kWh. Com esses resultados foi possível identificar as maiores perdas energéticas da planta, quantificar o custo da destruição de exergia nos principais equipamentos e a taxa de custo dos produtos principais da planta que são energia térmica e energia elétrica. Isto permite visualizar o desempenho energético, exergético e econômico em cada equipamento da planta e indicar os processos que merecem um trabalho de desenvolvimento para melhorar a sua eficiência econômica. Além disso, o custo da capacidade energética em R$/kWh produzida pela planta a vapor foi comparado com o valor cobrado pela concessionária de energia local. Essa comparação mostrou que central geradora de energia tem um custo de energia menor do que o valor confrontado.

Escola experimental de primatas: análise da coerência entre pressupostos e práticas empíricas

O desenvolvimento de modelos animais para o estudo de problemas no desenvolvimento cognitivo humano pressupõe como fator principal a existência de certa homologia de processos comportamentais entre os repertórios do modelo e dos humanos. A Escola Experimental de Primatas (EEP) tem utilizado o macaco-prego (Cebus ssp.) como um modelo animal para investigar a aquisição de repertórios relacionais generalizados em humanos. Este trabalho avaliou os estudos empíricos da EEP no sentido de verificar a coerência entre seus pressupostos teóricos e sua prática empírica, especialmente no que diz respeito à existência de homologias de processos comportamentais entre macacos-prego e seres humanos. Ao se analisar a 1) origem dos objetivos e dos procedimentos dos estudos (a maioria provém de estudos com animais); 2) se os resultados esperados foram alcançados ou não (de forma geral, resultados positivos em relação aos objetivos propostos); e 3) se nos estudos da EEP é discutida a questão do modelo animal e/ou a aplicabilidade dos procedimentos utilizados nos estudos para humanos (não é), verificou-se que não são apresentados dados empíricos que sustentem a homologia sugerida na proposta teórica norteadora da EEP. Esses resultados demonstram que a prática científica da EEP tem avançado enquanto pesquisa básica sobre a aprendizagem de repertórios relacionais generalizados para macacosprego, mas ainda sem evidências de transferência para o estudo desse fenômeno em humanos. Sugere-se que o caminho a seguir pode ser: 1) desenvolver estudos empíricos que validem a homologia de processos comportamentais entre alguns repertórios dos macacos-prego e humanos; e 2) dar início à aplicação dos achados da pesquisa básica da EEP no desenvolvimento de procedimentos para ensinar repertórios relacionais para pessoas com atraso no desenvolvimento cognitivo.

Education for Energy Efficiency through an Educational Game

This paper presents an assessment of an educational game for teaching the efficient use of electricity. Developed with Adobe Flash (R), it is a virtual board game where participants choose a car that starts the path and reaches the same final goal, going through a number of track steps defined in terms of a dice that each player rolls in turn. The car moves if the participant is able to correctly answer a question that is randomly generated by the software. The objective of the game is to answer questions related to energy efficiency promoting a healthy and attractive learning process for participants on concepts related to energy efficiency such as: the rational use of energy, the basic concepts of forms of energy generation, among others. The main objective of this paper is to assess the impact of the application of this virtual game in the teaching and learning process of high school students. Therefore, the game was applied in the discipline of physics in a class of junior high public school in the state of Sao Paulo. Initially, the class that had 43 students was divided into 10 groups of 4 students, and 1 group of 3 students. Each student group competed with one another. The idea was that each of them should indicate a student who was the representative of this group until only 4 group leaders were selected for the finals. At this stage, each student could interact with a group of up to ten students that acted as advisers. The adopted assessment process is based on the model proposed by Savi [7]. Then, at the end of the game, the students answered a prepared questionnaire based on the model proposed by Savi. According to Savi, although there are significant studies that show the importance of educational games for the process of cognitive development and learning concepts of students, there are few papers that present forms of assessing the potential of these resources. Thus, the assessment criteria proposed by Savi are based on the model of training evaluation by Kirkpatrick [3], taken as a reference to measure the efficiency of processes of continuing education courses for professionals. The authors assert that the metric of the evaluation proposed to assess the game is based on the first level of the model proposed by Kirkpatrick.

Função simbólica e desenvolvimento da noção temporal em surdos e ouvintes: análise na perspectiva de Jean Piaget

In a previous research, it was observed that are symbolic exchanges established between the persons and the environment they live in that allow them to interact with others, leading them to reorganize their internal cognitive structures, reaching more elaborated stages. In the case of a person with deafness, the possibility of exchange can be compromised and knowledge about the construction of the temporal notion seems to be essential to enable a path of explanation about the difficulties they have regarding their cognitive development. Thus, based on the theory of Jean Piaget, the study intended to understand how the temporal notion constitutes as possible subject to the process of building the real, and examine, through empirical evaluation, if the difficulty in establishing symbolic exchanges caused by deafness would compromise the development of this notion. For this purpose, bibliographical research and empirical research were made, by the comparative evaluating between the performance of deaf and hearing subjects in relation to the construction of temporal notion. Two groups of subjects aged between 10 and 12 years were composed: one with three deaf subjects and another with 3 listeners. The assessment and analysis of the data were based on an experiment created by Piaget and his staff. The results showed that the listeners present responses from operative level, compatible with the age range in which they found themselves. In contrast, the deaf subjects showed responses of transition level, which indicates a situation of cognitive delay. We conclude that the potential compromise linguistic presented by deaf people, can hinder the activity representative causing delay in construction of temporal notion and consequently the development of thought. We conclude that the possible linguistic committal presented by deaf people can hinder the representative activity, causing delay in construction of temporal notion and consequently in the development of thought. In this sense, it seems that the Sign Language constitutes an important tool for deaf people because it allows symbolic exchanges that favor the cognitive development.

O material didático para alunos surdos: a literatura infantil em libras

The reading of history is a fundamental part of early literacy for children as part of the goals for all children's education. The wheel of history or storytelling is an important moment of great help in the cognitive development of children, including a child with disabilities. Searching the accessibility of communication is that the present study aimed to make accessible in Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS) the book O Penuginha by Luiz Vitor Martinello. To facilitate the achievement of this objective, it was considered appropriate to develop a descriptive study following the methodology of qualitative research, to survey the literature on how learning takes place in the Portuguese language by deaf students. This study resulted in a DVD with video recording with the translation of the book O Penuginha in LIBRAS and the narration of the book in Portuguese. Therefore, this project became relevant as the paradigm of the twenty first century is the inclusion of all people in different scenarios and the school is one of the first places where the removal of barriers is essential

O jogo de xadrez e a aprendizagem matemática: uma análise de possibilidades

The idea of this research is to analyze the possibilities of using chess as a nice alternative for motivating and teaching mathematics. The study was carried out in three steps, consisting of a literature review about the importance of games for education, followed by the importance that the game of chess has on the student's cognitive development and, finally, a qualitative analysis of data obtained by recording it. The data were taken from some activities performed in the 6th grade class of elementary education at a public school in the city of Roseira, state of São Paulo, in a team at the age 9 and 12 year-old students. The result of this research proved to be significant the use of chess game to teach math, we were able to verify that there was an easy assimilation of the subject, because when a student plays, he/she willdevelop skills in the game which becomes an incentive to study even more

As entrelinhas dos contos de fadas: ponte para eternizar ideologias

Literature has a role to contribute in the affective, cultural and cognitive development os chindren and it also accumulates the function to form readers among others. Among several genres, there are the fairy tales that are eternal in the western culture and they are the first genres to be read spontaneously at home or to be taught at school. As all the symbolic language, the fairy tales are steeped in ideologies. Thus, the aim of this research is to investigate if the existing ideologies in two fairy tales – Cinderella and The Sleeping Beauty, both from Perrault, influence children between 9 and 10 years old as subjects. An empiric research of quantitative and qualitative approach was done and its data analysis followed the method of Content Analysis, and it has as register analysis unit the word, and of context the sentence (children’s answer). The choice os the classify the categories it was used the syntactic criteria because it’s the most appropriate to refer to register units from ideologies identified by scholars in the area. The results show that children with 9 and 10 years old are influenced by implied ideologies existing in the two fairy tales used in the process of data collection

Processos subjetivos na identificação da motivação dos alunos

In this work, we have some considerations about the interactive process between teacher and students, and we analyze the subjective aspects of how the teacher reacts from its interpretation of the student's motivation throughout his lecture. We utilized Vigotski's theories, about the importance of dealing with the social cognitive process, which may contribute to an efficient school learning and when the teacher is engaged and motivated is able to motivate and excite all students who are in their classroom. We therefore investigated how it relates to the constructs of Werstch, the arguments of the teacher and students' excitement

O uso de experimentos didáticos como ferramenta para o ensino de física nos anos iniciais da educação básica

When it comes to teaching physics in the early years of elementary school, the first question is: but there are opportunities to teach concepts to children of such complexity? This study sought to examine approaches and strategies to enter the Basic Education in Physics. To this end, we used low cost materials testing, taking as its starting point the work of Ferreira (1978) instrumentation for Teaching Physics, particularly with the theme electrostatics. The present study was made from the use of prototypes developed with the materials cited. Observations were made in the classroom looking for, from the records of teaching, analyzing the behavior of children and their arguments, possibilities for Physics Teaching this age group as well as some evidence of their cognitive development. In teaching discussions were held with students of the early years of elementary school involving conceptual and phenomenological aspects, adapting such knowledge at the level of logical and mathematical thinking that was still under development. The work shows that it is possible to work on electrostatic physical concepts with children belonging to the age group of nine to ten years. With the support of the group Pibid Physics city of Rio Claro, I realize my observations and practices at the Municipal School Marcelo Schmidt, which proved to be available and open for acceptance of this proposal

As políticas de formação do arte educador no século XXI: o caso da UNESP no Estado de São Paulo

This paper deals with the training of art educators, focusing on the courses offered at public universities in the state of São Paulo, where, specifically the pedagogical approach of training curricula of grades offered at UNESP, campus of São Paulo and Bauru. In the current situation have been proposed, from training in undergraduate courses, new tasks and responsibilities to work teaching the teacher in order to develop this educational increasingly effective so as to ensure efficient productivity autonomous learner in the process cognitive development in basic education, the teacher being assigned the task of stimulating that process and manage situations of educational work as a way of systematizing knowledge. The research consisted of questioning whether that teacher training allowed contact with the educational resources necessary for teaching, under current conditions assigned by the neoliberal conjuncture educational work of art educator with a view to the formation of aesthetic sensibility of the students from the class working, privileged pupils of public schools, to contribute to establishing the apprehension about the pedagogical training of art educators to confront the reality school, considering the specificity of action of these teachers. Therefore we conducted a desk study of existing legislation and the National Curriculum Guidelines that guide teacher training, correlating them to Pedagogical Policy Projects and curricula of undergraduate courses in Arts Education and / or Visual Arts courses UNESP. The work of desk research, quantitative and analytical, refers strictly pedagogical part, amid restructuring curriculum established by the undergraduate courses in the periods 2003 to 2011, with the promulgation of the CNE/ CP nº. 9 / 2001 and the Resolution CNE/CP n.º 1/2002 and n.º 2/2002...
