A relação sujeito-objeto e a unidade afetivo-cognitiva: contribuições para a psicologia e para a educação

The relationship between affective-emotional problems and school learning is present in areas of Psychology and Education. In the present study, of theoretical and bibliographic characteristics, we investigated elements that might confirm the thesis of the historicity of cognitive and affective processes, giving to these processes a social and symbolic connotation . Through the Historic-Cultural Psychology we approached the subject-object relationship and affective-cognitive unit proposing to overcome the subjectivist and organicist thinking. The study suggested the importance for us to (re) think the relationships that the subject establishes with the environment, the role of knowledge and practical conditions of life and education. Besides, it highlighted the activity as a main category in the constitution of needs and motives, as well in the formation of desires and the objectification of them. In this way, it enhances the learning and promotes the development, considering that the formation of subjectivity in each subject is the effect of an educative process that shall be object of study of both Psychology and Education.

Compreensão leitora de palavras e frases: elaboração de procedimento avaliativo

This study aimed to develop procedures for assessing reading comprehension of words and phrases and characterize the performance of students of 2nd year of elementary school in this procedure. It was divided into two phases: 1) preparation of evaluation tests of reading comprehension, consisting of three events: comprehension of written word (CWW), sentences (CWS) and sentences through pictures (CSP) and 2) application of the elaborated evaluation in 120 students distributed in the following groups: GI, 60 students from a public (municipal) school and GII, 60 students from a private school. The CWW test obtained the highest average of score, followed by CSP and CWS for both groups, since the picture contributes to the comprehension of the meaning either of the word and sentences. The procedure was effective to assess initial skills of reading comprehension once it identified inherent difficulties related to the literacy process.

It was also found that the assessment used by them was characterized by sluggish and it was based mainly on the use of quantitative measuring instruments. Such instruments shortly guide the process of teaching and learning, consequently do not contribute to effective the inclusion of these school students.

We therefore investigated how it relates to the constructs of Werstch, the arguments of the teacher and students' excitement

In municipal elementary schools in Bauru SP, since 2013, went into action the Common curriculum, targeting a unified curriculum. The curriculum has a wide range of definitions, which vary according to the conception of the authors, as well as its practice can occur of different ways resulting from the worldview and teacher's work. So, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between the curriculum of state and municipal schools in Bauru regarding its articulation with the use of technology in the early years of elementary school, opposing proposal curriculum and teaching practice. For this, was necessary check the view of teachers on this process, because they are responsible for putting the curriculum in action and link it with the use of technology. Several authors report that the use of technology in education to provide qualitative advances in school learning, thereby we asked whether there is a joint in the daily life of state and municipal schools, through the existing curriculum. To answer these and other questions in this work, we realized a qualitative empirical research base that used as an instrument of data collection: literature review, documentary, interview and questionnaire with nine teachers from public schools in the city Bauru, on which we identified that there curricular flexibility to articulate the use of technologies.

Educação escolar e constituição do afetivo: algumas considerações a partir da psicologia histórico-cultural

Cultural-Historical Psychology alleges the thesis of social experience as the basis of human formation and points the affective-cognitive unity as the intermediate in subject relations with the knowledge on the development of psychological functions. This article presents some elements that indicate the constitution of affective processes from the relations the subject maintains with human objectifications. Part of the critics to the organismic and subjectivist thought that, both in Psychology and in Education, separates emotions from other functions of human consciousness – treating them as deterrents in the teaching and school learning processes – and signs the importance of (re) thinking the relations the subject establishes with reality, the role of knowledge and of the concrete conditions of life and education that produce the affective processes. It defends that thinking and feeling are psychological processes developed from history of appropriation and objectification of signs and instruments that each subject realizes and affirms in scholar education, and the intentional character of teaching – in the organizational and pedagogical practice – as determinant elements in the transformation of the ways of thinking and feeling.

Aprendizagem na contemporaneidade: jogos digitais no novo cenário em que caminha o ensino de química

Having in sight the current inertia found on the school physical environments as well as on the High School learning methods used, digital games appear as a different tool to build the individuals'/students' knowledge and becomes a driving factor for this research. The usage of this media resource tries to rescue a stimulant type of learning focused on the students' experiences while getting them closer to Science, Technology and Society (STS). The usefulness of this method falls short, however, without the capacitated guidance of a teacher. A literature review has been made about the possible schooling that electronic/digital games provide; it also brings the opinions of students and teachers to help comprehend how the insertion of this new tool in the classroom happens, as well as its efficiency and acceptance. Having in sight the relationship between individuals and the preoccupations about the future of mankind, components of humanity's destiny have been evidenced in the teaching of Chemistry. It is possible to conclude that these games can, indeed, help in the teaching process, although it is necessary that they develop a main didactic role, linked to the teaching of concepts and content, or else become only educational for that matter. Using the tools given by digital games it is possible, for example, through playfulness, to teach the theory of many abstract models, mathematical equations and chemical formulas, making it possible then to grab the students' attention, to thrill them and to develop their participation based on the experience they so often already have with cell phones and personal computers

Hacia una educación inclusiva : reinventar las prácticas curriculares, más allá de las políticas educativas

El presente artículo se propone dejar planteados algunos aportes y debates en torno a la definición de políticas educativas que promueven la inclusión y sus efectos en las prácticas curriculares que se configuran en el dispositivo escolar, el que define sus condiciones de posibilidad. Se plantea que no existe una aplicación lineal de las políticas educativas, atendiendo a las mediaciones que los actores educativos ponen en juego en las prácticas curriculares fundadas en una lógica escolar naturalizada. Por ello la necesidad de propiciar procesos de desnaturalización de las creencias de los actores educativos acerca de las formas de lo escolar, el aprender y el enseñar, el curriculum, la educación común, la educación especial y sus posibles relaciones. De este modo habilitar movimientos instituyentes que transformen las prácticas curriculares en herramientas para la inclusión educativa en términos de igualdad para todos/as.

Inclusión escolar : Reflexiones desde las concepciones y opiniones de los docentes

En este trabajo presentamos los resultados de una investigación (período 2006-2008) destinada a indagar las concepciones y opiniones sobre la inclusión de niños con discapacidades, proporcionadas por dos tipos de actores técnico-docentes. Se trata, en el primer caso, de directivos y docentes procedentes de Institutos Superiores de Formación Docente. En el segundo, de directivos, docentes y personal de los Equipos de Orientación Escolar de escuelas destinadas a niños con necesidades educativas derivadas de las discapacidades (NEDD) y de escuelas de Educación Primaria Básica (EPB). La información fue recabada a través de la realización de entrevistas en profundidad con los participantes seleccionados. Las dimensiones incluidas contemplaron: tipo y calidad de la formación recibida en distintas instancias (grado, en ejercicio, posgrado); conocimientos de los problemas de las personas con discapacidades (tipos y determinantes causales); actitudes frente a la integración e inclusión escolar y sus condiciones de posibilidad; valoraciones sobre los derechos de los niños con discapacidad a ser incluidos en la EPB; y posibilidades de reflexionar sobre la problemática. El objetivo final se orientó a obtener información relevante que colabore en el diseño de estrategias destinadas a propiciar las condiciones para un aprendizaje escolar cooperativo y colaborativo, que contemple la problemática de la diversidad y de las diferencias individuales
