Suspensões e desvios da escrita: travessias da filosofia na escola pública

Este texto nasce do surpreendente convite feito pelas crianças para pensar a relação entre as experiências filosóficas e a escrita na escola Municipal Joaquim da Silva Peçanha, no município de Duque de Caxias. Convite inicialmente feito por alunos da turma 601 que, em sua maioria, no ano de 2010, participavam das experiências de pensamento quando do primeiro segmento do Ensino Fundamental. Meninos e meninas criando tempo fora do tempo. Os atravessamentos da filosofia no contexto da escola têm provocado muitas perguntas, de modo que a escrita do presente texto é, em certo sentido, uma narrativa, uma tentativa de acolher a problematização, as suspensões, os desvios de uma escrita que remetem à temporalidade complexa que vem se configurando desde que o projeto de pesquisa e extensão Em Caxias, a filosofia en-caixa? teve início, no ano de 2007. Que tempo têm inaugurado as experiências de pensamento? Será um tempo de scholé, enquanto tempo sem destinação, livre de e livre para, desde a perspectiva de Jan Masschelein e Maarten Simons? Nesse sentido, problematiza-se também que relação pode haver entre a filosofia que se faz na escola e uma escrita experiência, e em que medida os interrogantes, acima mencionados, têm potencializado o pensamento em torno da relação entre escrita, prática e vida. O encontro com as crianças e com os jovens que participam desse projeto tem feito desmoronar alguns pilares e colocado em questão muitas vezes através de situações-limite o lugar confortável das certezas, das verdades que povoam uma trajetória de formação. Lançar um outro olhar sobre essas verdades, sobre os discursos que transformam escrita e fracasso num sintagma inquebrantável. Pensar o fracasso desde uma perspectiva que, em vez de reforçar a desigualdade e a humilhação, possa mobilizar o pensamento, um outro modo de estar em presença, quem sabe um olhar poético, infantil. Nesses des-caminhos, nessas suspensões e desvios, este texto também é um convite a uma dança, à dança do pensamento. Dos movimentos desse bailado complexo e fascinante, quem sabe surjam outros encontros, outros olhares, outras relações, outras linguagens, outras escritas...

Electronic and mechanical properties of 5d transition metal mononitrides via first principles

The electronic and mechanical properties of 5d transition metal mononitrides from LaN to AuN are systematically investigated by use of the density-functional theory. For each nitride, Six Structures are considered, i.e., rocksalt, zinc blende, CsCl, wurtzite, NiAs and WC structures. Among the considered structures, rocksalt structure is the most stable for LaN, HfN and ALIN, WC structure for TaN, NiAs structure for WN, wurtzite structure for ReN, OsN, IrN and PtN. The most stable Structure for each nitride is mechanically stable. The formation enthalpy increases from LaN to AuN.

First Principles Investigation on the Ultra-Incompressible and Hard TaN

The structural, electronic, and mechanical properties of TaN were investigated by use of the density functional theory (DFT). Eight structures were considered, i.e.. hexagonal WC TaN, NiAs, wurtzite, and CoSn structures. cubic NaCl. zinc-blende and CsCl structures. The results indicate that TaN in TaN-type structure is the most stable at ambient conditions among the considered structures. Above 5 GPa, TaN in WC-type structure becomes energetically the most stable phase. They are also stable both thermodynamically and mechanically. TaN in WC-type has the largest shear Modulus 243 GPa and large bulk modulus 337 GPa among the considered structures. The Volume compressibility is slightly larger than diamond, but smaller than c-BN at pressures from 0 to 100 GPa. The compressibility along the c axis is smaller than the linear compressibility of both diamond and c-BN.

Ab initio study on the electronic and mechanical properties of ReB and ReC

The structural, electronic, and mechanical properties of ReB and ReC have been studied by use of the density functional theory. For each compound, six structures are considered, i.e., hexagonal WC, NiAs, wurtzite, cubic NaCl, CsCl, and zinc-blende type structures. The results indicate that for ReB and ReC, WC type structure is energetically the most stable among the considered structures, followed by NiAs type structure. ReB-WC (i.e., ReB in WC type structure) and ReB-NiAs are both thermodynamically and mechanically stable. ReC-WC and ReC-NiAs are mechanically stable and becomes thermodynamically stable above 35 and 55 GPa, respectively. The estimated hardness from shear modulus is 34 GPa for ReB-WC, 28GPa for ReB-NiAs, 35GPa for ReC-WC and 37GPa for ReC-NiAs, indicating that they are potential candidates to be ultra-incompressible and hard materials.

Herramientas semióticas y currículo de matemáticas

Para la Educación Matemática, el uso de la tecnología computacional hoy, reviste particular interés investigativo en lo que respecta al aprendizaje de las matemáticas de nuestros niños y niñas en las instituciones escolares; dado que, la tecnología computacional posibilita el estudio (tratamiento) de los objetos matemáticos y sistemas de representación y las representaciones semióticas que constituyen un elemento básico para entender la construcción del conocimiento de los estudiantes (Lupiañez, Moreno,1999) y desde las actividades cognitivas de representación inherentes a la semiosis: formación, tratamiento y conversión, de registros semióticos (Duval,1999).

Sex ratio: Los primeros contrastes de significación

El inicio del estudio de la proporción de nacimientos de niños y niñas (sex ratio) comienza en el siglo XVIII y ha ocupado a grandes matemáticos. En 1712 John Arbuthnott ya trató de explicar el hecho comprobado de que el número anual de nacimientos de niños superaba al de niñas. Esto supone el primer ejemplo de un contraste de significación y el germen de la técnica de los contrastes de hipótesis estadísticas. El objetivo de este artículo es mostrar estos inicios y reflexionar sobre su utilidad didáctica hoy.

Analysis of the footprint in school age of 8-10 years old

Biomechanical problems in children, is an important subject currently, existing controversy in different areas, for example, the majority of children have a flattened footprint, or the hypermobility joint is linked to a musculoskeletal pain. The objective of the study was to determine what kind of footprint is most frequent in school-age children (8-10 years) in the area of Plasencia. This was taken as a sign 50 children, of whom 28 were males and 22 females. All the subjects in the study underwent an assessment of footprint planted in static as well as an exploration of different parameters through inspection in a standing position (formula digital, rearfoot). The results show that excavated footprint is present in a 72% cases of the population, 16% was belonging to an excavated footprint in which we find a higher percentage of weight related.For the digital formula we find that the most common is the Egyptian foot by 40% of the cases and that the prevalence in the rearfoot, is a normal hindfoot. In relation with the hypermobility joint, we check that it is more common in girls and that none of them presents an association to musculoskeletal pain. As a future line we could establish a more comprehensive study with new techniques and valuingchild’s statics and dynamics, to have a more accurate study of the different variables in the sample population studied.

Typical reggaeton in Morocco: forms of female political affirmation throught dance

Through an ethnographic account, this text analyses how social dance may become a discourse involving the cultural affirmation of a subordinate group. It describes how a group of girls faced with a complex of outlooks that construed them as Moroccan, Muslim or unattractive —or as objects of education and intervention— responded by affirming their own culture with an unanticipated corporal discourse. The way in which looking construes bodies is explored through metaphors: a hand that touches, a chisel that sculpts, a whip that lashes and a cobweb that controls and traps bodies. Owing to this political dimension of dance, workshops can also be an oppressive and silencing tool; to prevent this, the article concludes with a series of recommendations to implement dance in social intervention processes.

The “re-socialization” of Gypsy women in the literacy courses aimed to the recipients of the Social Integration Revenue Policy of the Region of Madrid

This article studies the gender values that are promoted both in the literacy courses for gypsy women beneficiaries of the Social Integration Revenue Policy of the Region of Madrid and in the events that are organized for this group by public institutions and NGOs. The process of “socialization” that occurs in the educative groups for Gypsy women is focused on constructing an image of what it is to be a “Gypsy modern woman”. Through multiple mechanisms and discursive techniques a specific conception of gender equality is transmitted in these educative spaces. In addition to this, Gypsy women are continually urged to assume certain values and social practices (of gender identity, of "citizenship", of parenting, etc..), while an archetype of "Gypsy Woman" which condenses powerful stereotypes and prejudices about the "Gypsy culture" and the gender relations characteristics of this group is constructed.

Art as an educative and social tool

Since remote times, certain sectors of society have been exposed to inequality and vulnerability, where adequate intervention processes have become conspicuous because of their absence. Nowadays, current societies have the responsibility of contributing, based on their experience and knowledge, with more efficient policies and programs that improve the life quality of the most disadvantaged. It is here where art and its different tools play a very important role, not only on a physical level, but also as an education tool that allows the development of emotional, mental and communicative skills. The aim of this paper is to make clear the potential of art as an instrument of social and educational intervention. It starts by showing worldwide-collected experience related to education and arts, and then, it acquaints the reader with two parallel intervention projects that worked with youths under social vulnerability conditions. These interventions were developed based on a qualitative research (Grounded theory), using as methodology “The Artistic Mediation” with emphasis on body language. This methodology helped researchers to get close to the participants and to know their experiences and emotions. At the same time, it was possible to evidence the positive effects of educative interventions through art. These workshops were based on an artistic methodology especially focused on body language. Data in this work is qualitative, and as such, it permits a special approach to the personal and emotional experiences of the participants; clearly showing the positive effects of the referenced practice on them.

Pupil participation in school life: an approach from the educational community

The Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC, 1989) is currently the most ratified international treaty. Several authors have highlighted its potential for both a moral education and citizenship. However, paradoxically, different studies report its limited or occasional incorporation into school practices. This article explores experiences of participation in schools,the third P of the CRC, from the plurality of voices and actors of the educational community,by means of 14 discussion groups in 11 autonomous communities in Spain. Discourse analysis evidence low levels of student participation in school life. But, at the same time, a favorable educational environment for the development of projects that contribute to child participation is found, as well as for the incorporation of the CRC as a mover and a referential integrator of the different schools projects. However, it is also an educational background conductive to projects for its development, such as the incorporation of the CRC as a referential integrator of the schools projects.

Procesamiento de la Información Social, Relaciones entre Iguales y Ajuste Social: Agresión y Victimización

El presente estudio fue realizado en tres clases del Centro de Educación Primaria "Filósofo Séneca" de Madrid. El objetivo fue determinar la forma en que los niños de 5º y 6º de educación primaria procesan la información social y su relación con el nivel de ajuste social manifestado, expresado en términos de agresividad y victimización. El estudio, se basa en el Modelo de Procesamiento de la Información Social propuesto por Crick y Dodge (1994) y examina el cuarto paso de éste, la generación de respuestas alternativas. Se recogieron datos de forma individualizada de n=55 niños, 24 niños y 31 niñas. La hipótesis principal, formulada como que un déficit en el procesamiento de la información social se relacionará con unos niveles más altos de agresión y victimización, se mantiene.

The following study was implemented in three classes of the Primary EducationCentre «Filósofo Séneca». Its aim was to determine the way that children of this age processsocial information and the relation between this and the level of aggression or victimizationthey show.The study is based on the Model of Social Information Processing proposed byCrick and Dodge in 1994, and examines the fourth step of this model, the generation of alternative responses. The principal hypothesis, that a deficit in social information process-ing will be related to higher levels of aggression and victimization, is supported.

Características del ambiente marino frente a la costa peruana

El ambiente marino frente al Perú es modificado considerablemente por eventos transcendentes de características opuestas: El Niño y La Niña, los mismos que se presentan alternadamente, con diferente intensidad y duración. La temperatura presenta sus máximos y mínimos valores en verano e invierno, respectivamente;ambos E:xtremos dela salinidad se registran en el verano; los nutrientes presentan sus mínimos valores en verano y máximos en el invierno, intensificándose el afloramiento. Frente a la costa peruana se presentan masas de aguas superficiales y subsuperficiales procedentes de la región subtropical, tropical, ecuatorial y de la región subantártica. La Corriente Peruana, se subdivide en Corriente Costera Peruana y Corriente Oceánica Peruana. En la capa subsuperficial se presentan la Corriente Peruana Subsuperficial y la Extensión Sur de la Corriente de Cromwell. El afloramiento, mecanismo esencial de la alta producción marina, se produce sobre todo en las zonas de los 4-5°S,7-8°S, 11-12°S y 14-15°S. Durante las últimas tres décadas tres eventos El Niño y dos Niñas de gran intensidad han afectado severamente el ecosistema marino peruano.

La identidad autóctona y el aprendizaje del español como segunda lengua en comunidades indígenas de Hispanoamérica : el caso de Ecuador

Cette recherche se construit autour d’un travail de terrain réalisé dans trois communautés autochtones quichuas vivant au nord de l’Équateur. Il prétend étudier l’incidence que devrait avoir la diversité culturelle et linguistique dans les politiques éducatives en milieu plurilingue et multiculturel. En Amérique hispanique, l’éducation des peuples autochtones n’a jamais été très attentive à leurs besoins spécifiques en ce qui a trait à l’apprentissage de l’espagnol comme langue seconde. En effet, les motivations des apprenants, plus instrumentales qu’intégratives, prouvent que les autochtones apprennent la langue espagnole presqu’exclusivement pour communiquer, sans vraiment être intéressés au groupe natif de cette langue. De plus, notre recherche sur le terrain avec les apprenants du peuple Otavalo nous a démontré que leur très forte identification ethnique influence l’acquisition de l’espagnol. D’une part, ils sont plus enclins à se distinguer des autres, spécialement des hispano parlants, et de l’autre, ils réussissent plus difficilement à atteindre une compétence élevée dans la langue seconde. Notre recherche conclut donc que l’éducation, qu’elle soit issue du système national ou bilingue, devrait davantage prendre en considération l’identité ethnolinguistique des nombreux enfants indigènes, afin de ne pas préjudicier leurs droits. Ceci permettrait de favoriser un apprentissage positif et significatif de l’espagnol comme langue seconde ou langue maternelle, mais tout en consolidant l’identité autochtone des apprenants.

The dismembered family : youth, memory, and modernity in rural southern Chile

Cette thèse traite de la supposée perte de culture politique et citoyenne que connaît le Chili de la période post-dictature. Bien qu’une telle perte soit généralement considérée comme une évidence, nous évaluons dans quelle mesure celle-ci est bien réelle en nous intéressant aux processus d’apprentissage du comportement civique de la plus jeune génération politique du pays qui a aujourd’hui atteint la vingtaine. Étant donné que les membres de cette génération étaient soit au stade de l’enfance, soit pas même nés au moment de la transition démocratique de 1990, ils ont habituellement pris connaissance des événements de répression étatique et de réconciliation démocratique par l’intermédiaire de leurs aînés. Ce phénomène est encore plus marqué dans les régions rurales du sud du pays où la majeure partie de ce que les jeunes générations savent du passé conflictuel de leur pays, incluant le colonialisme, le socialisme révolutionnaire et le fascisme, n’a pas été transmis par la communication verbale ou volontaire, mais indirectement via les habitudes et préférences culturelles qui ne manquent pas d’influencer les décisions politiques. À travers l’analyse des mécanismes de transmission inter-générationnelle de diverses perspectives d’un passé contesté, notre travail explore les processus par lesquels, à l’échelle micro, certains types de comportement politique sont diffusés au sein des familles et de petits réseaux communautaires. Ces derniers se situent souvent en tension avec les connaissances transmises dans les domaines publics, comme les écoles et certaines associations civiques. De telles tensions soulèvent d’importantes questions au sujet des inégalités de statut des membres de la communauté nationale, en particulier à une époque néolibérale où la réorganisation du fonctionnement des services sociaux et du contrôle des ressources naturelles a transformé les relations entre le monde rural pauvre et la société dominante provenant des centres urbains. Au sein de la jeune génération politique du Chili, dans quelle mesure ces perspectives situées concernant un passé pour le moins contesté, ainsi que leurs impacts sur la distribution actuelle du pouvoir dans le pays façonnent-ils des identités politiques en émergence ? Nous abordons cette question à l’aide d’une analyse ethnographique des moyens auxquels les jeunes recourent pour acquérir et exprimer des connaissances au sujet de l’histoire et de son influence latente dans la vie civique actuelle. Nos données proviennent de plus de deux années de terrain anthropologique réalisées dans trois localités du sud rural ayant été touchées par des interventions industrielles dans les rivières avoisinantes. L'une d'entre elles a été contaminée par une usine de pâte à papier tandis que les autres doivent composer avec des projets de barrage hydroélectrique qui détourneront plusieurs rivières. Ces activités industrielles composent la toile de fond pour non seulement évaluer les identités politiques, émergentes mais aussi pour identifier ce que l’apprentissage de comportement politique révèle à propos de la citoyenneté au Chili à l’heure actuelle.
