Escolhas de letras nas primeiras escritas infantis: função e unidade no discurso

The article deals, initially, from a theoretical point of view, the concept of function in the perspective of Vygotsky (2001), and functional equivalence from the point of view of Smith (1989) and articulates them with the letter funcion in the construction of words in discursive statements. Taking as reference these concepts, it was analysed writings of a student in early literacy at a school in a countryside city in the state of São Paulo, in a situation of writing letters of personal correspondence, whose data were collected in 2009 in order to determine which letters are chosen by the student and why they are chosen to record the speech. The concept of function in Vygotsky and the functional equivalence of Smith (1989) used for the analysis of corpus, revealed that the student’s decisions are characterized by diversity sources and criteria, and rely mainly on the basis that a letter can have the constitution of the word, in the process of enunciation, regardless of their phonetic correspondence. The letter, used as a basis, would lose its status as strictly technical element to achieve the status of a unit of sense since is a constituent part of discourse.

Perfil dos professores participantes da 2ª edição do curso de LIBRAS a distância: uma propsota de formação continuada no contexto educacional inclusivo

This research presents an analysis of the profile of participants in the second edition of the Extension Course “Libras by distance: a proposal for continuing education of teachers in inclusive educational settings”, funded by the Program for Continuing Education of Teachers in Special Education, the SEESP / MEC and the support of the UAB, whose goal was to promote a theoretical-practical-discourse on the importance of Libras in deaf education. The course was developed by the School of Philosophy and Science of UNESP / Marília, in distance mode. practicing teachers in public schools, linked to 19 Departments and / or Directors of Education in several regions of Brazil took the course. The information was collected from the questionnaire responses of the diagnostic evaluation performed in the pre-registration course. In general, the information was about place of residence, marital status, family constitution, educational training and professional experience in special education. We performed quantitative analysis and descriptive statistics on the data. The information presented refers to a summary of results for the total sample investigated. With the release of the profile of participants we expect to contribute towards the organization of new extension courses in the area of deafness, in distance mode, aimed at the in-service training of teachers with a view to Inclusive Education.

As grafias não-convencionais da coda silábica nasal: análise de dados de EJA

Este artigo trata das grafias não convencionais da sílaba com coda nasal encontradasem textos escritos por jovens e adultos. Para a descrição desses dados de escrita, sãoconsideradas duas complexidades: (i) a fonético-fonológica da sílaba, particularmente doelemento nasal em coda, e (ii) a da representação ortográfica da nasalidade em português.Sob o aspecto fonético, a coda corresponde a uma redução de energia, o que pode tornar ossegmentos que preenchem essa posição da sílaba menos audíveis. Sob o aspecto fonológico,a coda pode ser vista como um constituinte não imediato da sílaba cujo preenchimento sofrerestrições. Sob o aspecto ortográfico, são três as possibilidades de registro da nasalidade:, como, respectivamente, em “campo”, “canto”, “maçã”. Argumenta-se que asgrafias não convencionais analisadas podem ser motivadas pelas características fonéticofonológicasdos enunciados falados (particularmente, da sílaba com coda nasal) e, também,pelas características das convenções ortográficas dos enunciados escritos (especificamente,as convenções para representação da nasalidade da coda). Defende-se que essas grafias nãosejam vistas como erros decorrentes da interferência da fala na escrita, mas como pistas darelação constitutiva dos enunciados falados e escritos.

Caracterização molecular do gene que codifica a TCTP (Translationally Controlled Tumor Protein) em tomate (Solanum lycopersicum cv. Santa Clara)

The gene encoding TCTP (Translationally Controlled Tumour Protein) is present in all eukaryotes and its product is involved in various cellular processes. Although well characterized in mammals, there are only few works available in the literature related to the analysis of this protein in plants. In this present work, the expression of the gene encoding TCTP was analyzed in different organs/tissues of tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum cv. Santa Clara). A quantification performed by RT-qPCR revealed the presence of TCTP transcript in all tissues/organs analyzed, with the highest expression level found in leaves. With the exception of fruits in intermediate stage of maturation, for which a small increase on the expression was detected, there was minimal variation in the relative expression of TCTP in other organ/tissues. In parallel, the effects of the constitutive expression of TCTP were investigated using transgenic tobacco lines able to overexpress this protein at different levels (T1, T2 and T3). Seedlings of these lines, and of a non-transgenic control line, were grown in MS culture medium for 21 days. At the end of this period, the length of roots and leaves was taken and the seedlings were photographed. According to Tukey's test, the analysis of the mean root length revealed a significant difference between T1 and T3 lines when compared to the control, although the same was not observed for the T2 line. For leaves, according to Kruskal-Wallis test, there was a statistical difference between the averages of leaf growth obtained for the different lines evaluated. According to these results, we can conclude that TCTP shows an ubiquitous expression in tomato plants, with the highest expression detected in leaves, and also that its overexpression promoted a higher root and leaf development in two of three transgenic tobacco lines tested

As concepções de corpo e de cultura corporal presentes nos discursos oficiais da área de educação física

A temática do corpo e da cultura corporal perpassa por várias ciências e áreas de conhecimento, tornando-se complexa e multifacetada. As relações entre corpo e cultura têm provocado o interesse constante de diversas áreas do conhecimento, como a Educação Física; e essa relação é fundamental e constitutiva dos seres humanos, sendo indissociável. Nosso trabalho situa-se na fronteira entre as ciências sociais e a educação física, com ênfase na educação física escolar. Por ser um tema intrigante, dotado de complexidades e integrações diversas, o nosso enfoque repousará nas concepções de corpo e cultura corporal presentes na área da educação física escolar, seja nos documentos oficiais emanados pelas instituições reguladoras, seja nos projetos pedagógicos do curso de graduação e de uma escola de ensino fundamental. Trata-se de uma investigação qualitativa, utilizando pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, através da análise de conteúdo. Para tanto, será utilizada referências da área de educação física, bem como da sociologia e antropologia e a pesquisa abrangerá os PPP (Projeto Político Pedagógico) de uma escola de ensino fundamental da cidade de Rio Claro e do curso de licenciatura em Educação Física da UNESP de Rio Claro, além dos documentos oficiais, como os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN) e o Currículo do Estado de São Paulo. Analisando os documentos, pudemos perceber que no Currículo do Estado de SP e no PPP de uma escola estadual de Rio Claro, as concepções corpo e cultura de movimento se assemelham por se tratar de uma escola pública paulista que se utiliza desse documento como referência na sua organização curricular. Em contrapartida, nos PCN e no PPP do Curso de Licenciatura em Educação Física da UNESP de Rio Claro, as concepções de corpo e cultura corporal de movimento são parecidas por se tratar de um curso de ensino superior que parece se basear nesse documento...

Mapeamento físico dos genes ribosomais 18S e 5S em peixes do gênero Trichomycterus (Teleostei, Trichomycteridae)

The present study aimed to cytogenetic analysis and structural and molecular level of four fish species of the genus Trichomycterus: T. diabolus, T. iheringi, T. zonatus and T. cf. mimonha collected in different river basins in Brazil. Techniques were used for classical cytogenetic (Giemsa, Silver nitrate impregnation, C-banding) and molecular with the chromosomal location of genes for 18S and 5S rDNA. All individuals examined had a diploid number 54 chromosomes and karyotype consisting of types of metacentric, submetacentric and subtelocentric. The constitutive heterochromatin identified by C-banding was observed in two small blocks in the karyotype of T. diabolus and large blocks of centromeric several pairs in chromosomal karyotypes of T. iheringi, T. zonatus and T. cf. mimonha. The Silver nitrate impregnation and hybridization with 18S rDNA probe revealed the existence of only a couple carryng nucleolar organizing regions (NORs) on the species T. diabolus, T. iheringi and T. cf mimonha, and two pairs carrying 18S rDNA in T. zonatus. The 5S rDNA was observed in interstitial position 6 of the pair in T. iheringi, the synteny with the two pair in 18S rDNA of T.diabolus in pericentromeric position of and two pairs submetacentric, one being also a case of synteny with the 18S rDNA in T. zonatus and T. cf. mimonha, this rDNA was located in the pairs 3, 18 and 25, and synteny in the 18S rDNA pair 18. Although representatives of these four species Trichomycterus present diploid number and karyotypic formula preserved, three is specific about the distribuition patterns of heterochromatin and location of rDNA sequences, indicating that chromosomal differentiation events in this group of fish are acting directly on these genomic portions

Reflexõs sobre a linguagem do ambiente chat no Teletandem sob a perspectiva da natureza heterogênea da escrita

This paper aims at discussing the characteristics of computer mediated language within a foreign language teaching and learning environment enabled by the use of synchronic writing resources – chat. The present research is based on (i) theoretical principles about the use of technologies and the teaching-learning of foreign languages in the scope of the Teletandem Brazil Project: Foreign languages for all – Projeto Teletandem Brasil: línguas estrangeiras para todos (TELLES, 2005); (ii) studies on the characteristics of the language within chat interactions; (iii) different theoretical perspectives on the relationship between spoken and written language, emphasizing the constitutive heterogeneity of writing perspective (CORRÊA, 1997, 1998, 2001); and (iv) some relevant concepts related to Prosodic Phonology field (NESPOR; VOGEL, 1986). Is being taken as research data, the written production of a Brazilian student (finishing a Licentiate in Literature) interacting with an American student (in Religious Studies) through Windows Live Messenger. The data were collected during a five-month period, during which the participants interacted through chat, totalizing 12 interactions in English and in Portuguese. During the analysis, a particular attention was given to the messages’ fragmentation, the use (or not) of punctuation signs and abbreviations within the Brazilian participant’s production, in order to discuss the representations she built of her writing, her interlocutor, herself and on the teaching-learning process of a foreign language.

Mais ou menos negra? Questões de negritude, tradução e a poesia de Harryette Mullen

This paper addresses issues regarding my translation of selected poems by Harryette Mullen, a rising African-American contemporary poet, whose dense poetry works on the black oral tradition, the experimentalism of writing, the (African-American) pop music, in addition to delving into issues such as the representation of (black) female sexuality. One of the complex aspects of her poetry is the notion of miscegenation, conceived as an aesthetic argument and as a constitutive condition of the identity of multiracial Americans. This concept establishes a textuality that questions the accessible intelligibility generally expected from black American poetry, insofar as a mosaic of dissonant voices are brought to light in her text, which makes it difficult to categorize. In Brazil, especially among politically engaged Afro-Brazilians, there has been criticism towards the praise of miscegenation, since the latter has been considered to support of the myth of racial democracy. Building on these aspects, we investigate the extent to which it is a challenge to translate her poetry – based on miscegenation and hybridity as aesthetic constructs – especially when taking into account the discursive locus of readers identified with an Afro-Brazilian aesthetic, particularly critical of miscegenation. From the point of view of translation, we evaluate the extent to which her poetry could be read by the predominant cultural discourse in Brazil, inclined to favor miscegenation as an integral concept of national identity, as a seductively experimental poetry. In view of this, one wonders whether this perspective makes hers poetry “less black” for Afro-Brazilian literary standards.

O estatuto teórico-metodológico do falado e do escrito para a pesquisa em mudança linguística

The objective of this paper is to reflect on the theoretical and methodological status of oral and written data as a source for investigating linguistic change phenomena. The per - spective we adopt here distances itself from a compartmentalized conception of oral and writ - ten texts writing since it is more closely associated with the writers’ relationship with historically and socially established practices of orality and literacy. We conducted an assessment of some of the specialized literature in order to gather arguments to defend the coexistence of written and oral enunciations, understood not as a form of interference, but as a constitutive blend, which, given its hybrid nature, enables the occurrence of the vernacular data, a locus of change also present in written records.

Identidade feminina: a constituição da identidde múltipla e contraditória na literatura hispanoamericana do início do século XX

O estudo da proposta foucaultiana sobre o poder possibilita focalizar as diferenças sociais de gênero como “multiformes e integradas” com outros pontos de poder, os quais não podem ser reduzidos à estrutura binária dominante/dominado, na relação homem/mulher. Portanto, não existe uma estrutura de “opressão de gênero” universal e mono-causal, pois os diferentes contextos discursivos geram campos atravessados por relações de forças muito diversas e variadas, e uma dinâmica de posições de sujeito que também é regulada e aberta a contingências. Por um lado, pensando nas diferenças de gênero e no posicionamento do sujeito dentro do marco de referência nas primeiras décadas do século XX, no qual há a afirmação do papel da mulher como um sujeito social, público, intelectual e artista, mas também assumindo sua categoria de Mãe e Mulher em uma sociedade patriarcalmente estruturada e, por outro lado, vislumbradas a partir das contribuições teóricas da crítica feminista, da crítica literária feminista e, especialmente, da crítica pós-feminista, denominada pósfoucaultiana por July Cháneton (2007), no sentido em que estas teóricas incorporam critica e produtivamente as idéias de Foucault sobre gênero, subjetividade e poder, verificamos como o discursivo-literário de Alfonsina Storni representa a construção de uma subjetividade feminina de posição identitária “múltipla e contraditória”, como parte constitutiva de uma diversidade de posições-sujeito feminina.

Leitura crítica da produção literária de Alfonsina Storni

This paper presents the trajectory traced by the Literary Criticism on the poetry of Alfonsina Storni, an Argentine writer of the early twentieth century. The first literary production of Alfonsina Storni, called modernist or tardorromántica (SARLO, 1988), is produced in the period 1916-1925; from Ocre (1926), she marks a break, confirmed in their last two books of poetry, Mundo de siete Pozos (1935) and Mascarilla y Trébol (1938), with the label of vanguardism and new aesthetic experiences such as antisoneto. Regarding the Criticism built over the poetic work of Alfonsina Storni by his contemporaries, we have three positions of reading: approaches biographical criticism and proposals for readings of critics and poets linked to Vanguard Argentina and made some critical texts by women from the middle academic. According to Salomone (2006), the criticism made by third trend marks another landmark of the constitutive deed of Alfonsina Storni, show tensions and positions that differ from the hegemonic critical. Subsequently, there is setting up a Women's Literature, along with a normative critique, which will consider the production book produced by women as produced by a subject biological woman, and that represents certain textuality with naturalized features peculiar to women. Today, in light of the Critical Feminist and contributions of Discourse Analysis, especially on the concepts and the connections between language and power, a critical reading of the production female, consists of texts of women writers since the mid-nineteenth century, is focused as a result of an ideological perspective and typically androcentric patriarchal, for example, on poems by Alfonsina Storni. According to Alice Salomone (2006), from the 80s of last century, the look on the production literary Latin American writers has another approach, which she calls "critical current: feminist criticism and modernity cultural".

Algumas considerações sobre a poesia de Eucanaã Ferraz

The contemporary Brazilian poetic production is marked by a strong diversity in the forms of expression and the thematic contents that it makes circulate; it is found either turned to the critical reading of the Brazilian poetry‟s most traditional repertoire, or more concerned about the research of new expressive models afforded by language. Such constitutive diversity, which operates on the intermediate gradients between these two tendencies, finds itself underlined by the little orthodox practice of the production divulgation and circulation, that appropriated the internet and the poetic performances to compensate the low paper-based edition. What we have is a type of poetic dialectology which identifies the poetry readers group. Verifying the most regular procedures in the construction of the dialectology, through the work of Eucanaã Ferraz and João Cabral, is the objective of this paper.

O discurso sobre leitura na esfera escolar e sua relação com o discurso científico

In this paper, the discourse about reading skills uttered by teachers and students is analyzed. The analyses are supported by the Bakhtin’s studies concerning the discourse that necessarily consider the meaning affected by the sphere of the activity in which the enunciation occurs. The concrete utterance, in this perspective, has its identity in relation to the social values that constitute the conscience of the author and in the ideologies that materialize in the discourse, which is always marked by the constitutive relation between the other person and me. The results indicate the following conclusions: the common sense discourse about reading appears in the answers of the analyzed teachers, which consider their students like bad readers, these professionals also do not recognize the technology as a source of reading for their students. Thus, reading that interests the students is not acceptable in school. The symbolic violence practiced by school appears at the moment that the teacher does not consider the student’s language and the readings that interest them; it also appears when the teacher prevents their students to have new readings; moreover, reading is always unique as it is neither new, nor unrepeatable, so it the plurality of meanings is impossible.
