No cotidiano da escola: o pensar e agir de jovens e adultos

The necessity of the view of the Youth and Adults Education (EJA) subjects beyond of their academic failures becomes imperative for a reconfiguration of this teaching modality. Thus, the compromise of this study is to go into these subjects‘ universe, give them a voice and, therefore, understand, in general, the web of relationships between these subjects and the school. It is understood that it is not possible to figure out the means attributed by the subjects without consideration, as an essential element, the social context in which such means has been built. For the development of this study, the methodology adopted was the ethnographic research. The procedures used for the data construction were the participative observation, the semi-structured interviews with a focal group, and the individualized semi-structured interviews. For the understanding of the data constructed in the field, the content analysis technique was used, which reach the expectations of an interpretative analysis. The observation occurred mainly in the classrooms, on a public school, located in a City of Natal/RN. The interviews were taken with a sample of eight students, males and females, with 25 to 60 year-olds. Such interviews highlight that for the young adult students, the school is much more than a place to learn. They realize such space as enabler of social interaction, as well as the possibility of rising through new professional horizons and, therefore achieve a social mobility. For the older students, mainly among women, the return to the school benches brings into the learning discourse, the desire of making new friends, having moments of meeting, chatting and relaxation, finally, to forget the problems of the day by day. The school quotidian observation allows a better understanding of the action of the subjects in relationship with the school practices. Finally, it can be affirmed that seeking for the school has not only the intention to recover the time lost in the childhood. Learning remains as a secondary goal. It does not matter whether they will be retained or promoted to the next level at the end of the academic year, what really matters is to be in school.

A criança com transtorno do espectro autista (TEA) e o professor: uma proposta de intervenção baseada na experiência de aprendizagem mediada (EAM)

The presence of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in regular schools has increased and with it, the need to develop interventional strategies that enhance their learning. One of the tools that can facilitate this process is Mediated Learning, defined as an interaction style where the teacher selects, modifies, enhances, and interprets environmental stimuli in order to promote student learning. In recent years several studies have used the Mediated Learning Experience Scale (MLE; Lidz, 1991) as a tool to assess the mediator behavior. These studies have suggested that the EAM Scale can provide important guidelines for planning educational interventions, particularly those involving students with special needs. In order to extend these findings, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of an intervention based on the Mediated Learning Experience on social / academic skills of a child with ASD, enrolled in the 4th grade of a regular elementary school. This collaborative study was held in the city of Parnamirim, state of Rio Grande do Norte, in 2014. A 9-year old boy with ASD and his teacher participated in the study. The research used a quasi-experimental A-B design (baseline and treatment) to evaluate the teacher's behavior. Qualitative procedures were also used to analyze the dyad´s responses. Teacher and student behaviors were observed in three school routines during baseline. Based on the results of this phase, a training program was designed for the teacher. Dyad behavior was analyzed again after training in the same routines. The results of this phase showed qualitative and quantitative changes in levels of teacher mediation. Additionally, data indicated that the child enhanced his social and academic skills during the intervention.

A oralidade no ensino de Língua Portuguesa em livros didáticos para educação de jovens e adultos (EJA): reflexões e proposições

This work appears as a reflection on the oral modality of the language in the teaching of Portuguese Language from textbooks proposed for the elementary school. It has as main aim to analyze the textbooks for the Youth and Adult Education - EJA (6th and 7th grade), the collection "It is time to learn", specifically in regard to educational activities focusing on oral proposals in their constituent units. It is a process of reflection with a view to submitting suggestions arising from the discussions held, given the fact that the writing mode has been identified by some scholars, between these Marcuschi (2005), as the most privileged in the classroom and in most manuals that guide the teaching of Portuguese Language. In this work, we start from a broader vision from the principles of dialogic pedagogy by Paulo Freire perspectives towards pedagogical practices that favor the development of linguistic and discursive student skills. In this sense, we emphasize the formation of a critical subject, who can argue and defend points of view, using oral or written language, in various social situations. In this view, this paper set up aims to identify, describe and interpret the activities proposed to the oral modality of Portuguese Language, from interactional theoretical bases, based on authors as Marcuschi (2005, 2010), Fávero, Andrade and Aquino (1999) Schneuwly and Dolz (2004), Antunes (2009), among others. In addition, the objective was to suggest other educational activities, as a way of expanding the existing ones, in order that addressed more efficiently, to aspects of orality been proposed and aspects of formal oral genres. Methodologically, it is a qualitative research, in which, from the teaching materials used in the classroom, there was a reflection on the orality and the oral teaching of the Portuguese language and has been proposed an expansion of activities one oral mode. In this reflection, analysis of the results revealed that the books investigated, used in Portuguese classes in EJA, include in their proposals orality as an object and teaching axis. However, we appoint the need to expand the teaching proposals with the existing activities in order to give greater emphasis to important aspects of orality already prioritized, and also to address to the formal public genres. In seeking to make suggestions and educational proposals that integrate with existing, we postulated the most effective development for oral skills for the EJA student, in Freire's perspective, as also we thought in a way to provide subsidies which could guide teachers of the Portuguese Language area at the fundamental level of education.

A interação ensino-serviço no processo de formação dos graduandos em fisioterapia da UFPB: a percepção dos docentes

The health paradigm, consolidated in the last century, directed the training of health professionals, educated under the aegis of the Flexnerian training, fragmentary and hospital-centered model. However, it proved to be insufficient to meet the demands of the Unified Health System and the population. In this sense, the National Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate health courses emerge as a normative framework in proposing a new professional profile, as well as the recommendation of strategies for the restructuring of curricula and teaching practices, and one of them is the teaching-service integration. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the process of training of Physiotherapy course students of the Federal University of Paraíba with the guiding principle of teaching-service integration, considering DCN. In this sense, the chosen method was a case study with qualitative approach. The sample was intentional, including all faculty members of the permanent staff of the Department of Physiotherapy at UFPB, linked to curriculum components whose practice scenarios occur in the SUS network and time longer than one year in that component. The data collection technique was the semi-structured interview. Data analysis was performed using the content analysis technique. The following categories were considered: professional training for SUS, integration of students to the SUS network services, the relationship between theory and practice in the training of physiotherapists, teaching and health professional partnership in the teaching-learning process and programs of training reorientation and their integration with the course. The results allowed identifying positive points in the teaching-service integration: recognition of the importance of integration activities between university and health services based on the insertion of students in the network, the combined actuation with health service professionals and the opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary team; the existence of structured and organized School Network; participation of students and teachers in government programs that offer the experience of insertion in the labor market. The following weaknesses stood out: difficulties in agreement, planning and evaluation of activities by the service; gap between theoretical and practical activities; lack of definition of roles of teacher and health service professionals in the training process and the fragile relationship of reorientation of vocational training programs with the curricular activities of the course. The teaching-service integration as a guiding principle in the analysis of the formation of physiotherapists reveals limits and possibilities for training that meets the health needs of the population. Thus, the choices of educational institutions regarding the care model have an influence on health practices, as well as the commitment by management and services and the permeability to social control instances decisively contribute to the improvement in the training of future professionals. Thus, the commitment of all involved for the effective change in the training process of health paradigm is indispensable.

O tema água no ensino de ciências:uma proposta didático pedagógica elaborada com base nos três momentos pedagógicos

Science and technology are increasingly present in society’s everyday living, interfering with the appearance and social relationships, which requires from the population: knowledge, skills and actions to intervene consciously and responsibly in the new socio-cultural setting. The science education might become a great ally in the task of literacy and / or enable students to live consciously and critically in a world even more influenced by scientific and technological aspects. The aim of the dissertation is to develop a didactic-pedagogic proposal for science classes of the 6th year of elementary school, based on the "Generator Theme: Water and its treatment", involving the dynamics of the Three Pedagogic Moments. Such proposal consists of a Course which embraces seven teaching modules containing topics related to Generator Theme. The modules were designed and developed with four student groups of 6th year in twelve hours / class per group, with a total of approximately 120 students. The interpretation of the developed content, resulting from the thematic modules with students, led to the creation of five analysis categories. Considering the results, it is possible to conclude it is necessary, for successful teaching practices in the school environment, that the teachers embrace the aim of teaching in a meaningful way, drawing up activities that really recognize and include the student as an active subject of the educational and learning process. The use of activities that lead students to recognize themselves as main process actors, developing practices based on previous knowledge and on their specific learning, results in a situation which they will recognize the science in their lives, learn to be reflective and aware of their attitudes about the world where they live.

As escolas polivalentes do Triângulo Mineiro e Alto Paranaíba (MG): sondagem vocacional no projeto desenvolvimentista civil-militar (1965–1976)

This study has as object eight state vocational schools located in Araguari, Araxá, Frutal, Ituiutaba, Monte Carmelo, Patos de Minas, Uberaba and Uberlândia, in Minas Gerais. The period analyzed comprises the years from 1965 to 1976, from the signature of the Agreement 512-11-610-042 beteween the Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC) and the American Agency for International Development (USAID), which started a series of other agreements, and actions ending up with the creation of the Expansion and Improvement of High Schools Program (Programa de Expansão e Melhoria do Ensino Médio - PREMEM) and, from this, the Vocational Schools. The upper limit of the study, 1976, was the year when these agreements, known as MEC/USAID agreements ceased. The Vocational Schools were characterized as vocation probing schools, directing the professional formation of the population in general, which would happen a posteriori, turning it shorter and more effective, since the labor market would demand, urgently, capable professionals for an expanding economy. The project of Vocational Schools had a national scope, and foresaw, for its unfolding, the complete substitution of State Schools for the new model, called “multi-curricula”. The theme Vocational schools was the object of my Master’s degree study, when I focused the State School Guiomar de Freitas Costa, in Uberlândia. That study raised questionings and concerns that resulted in the central problem of the thesis presented here: understanding the measure in which such schools integrated the country’s development project – mostly in the first half of the military rule – and to understand its structure, functionality and efficacyThe development of the study presented here, demanded the use of several sources: 1) specialized literature about the topics presented, i.e., the situation of national education in a temporal analysis, the political, economical and social context, research methodologies, the theory of human capital, vocational teaching, pedagogical trends and practices, agreements MEC-USAID and PREMEM; 2) national, state and county laws related to the discussion: laws of national education directives and basis, decrees and reports stating about the program of technical cooperation between Brazil and the United States of America, the Program of Expansion and Improvement of Teaching (PREMEM), formation of professors, establishment of Vocational Schools and educational planning; 3) documentation of school archives: books of minutes of Collegiate and of faculty and staff, registrar books with final scores, enrolment, visits of inspector, accounting books, punch clock records, student, professor and staff occurrences, inventory, class schedules, school year calendar, school rules, class reports, payment rolls, bills of sales, exchanged mail, personal documentation of professional personnel, documents of land acquisition, blueprints, manuals of PREMEM, didactic materials/resources used in classes, books available in the school library, structured evaluations for follow-up of school processes, pictures of events, texts prepared for special dates, and news from the official newspaper and, finally, 4) national and local press reports, especially from Folha de São Paulo, Correio de Araxá, Correio de Uberlândia and Lavoura e Comércio (Uberaba). The proposition of Vocational schools was conciliate theoretical and practical formation through an active education permeated by technological resources. The contact with knowledge and several practical activities under professional supervision, the student would identify the knowledge area that would interest him the most and his aptitude. This formation in primary school would make way for the vocation studies in high school, which became mandatory by the law 5.692/71, that reformed school education from the previous levels of elementary, middle high and high school. However, the multi-curricula proposal that would be spread to the other public schools in the country ended up succumbing to the model already established. From its ephemeral existence, maybe the Vocational Schools have not reached the more general goals in political, economic and social aspects; however, this study demonstrated that, for the people that, directly or indirectly, had contact with such schools, a legacy of vocational and quality teaching was made, so much so, that forty years after the end of that proposal, they are still remembered.

SABERES DOCENTES DOS PROFESSORES QUE ATUAM NOS ANOS FINAIS DO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL

O estudo busca conhecer o trabalho desenvolvido por professores de diferentes componentes curriculares dos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental da rede pública de ensino da cidade de São Paulo de modo a identificar e compreender suas percepções a respeito dos saberes docentes no contexto do processo ensino e aprendizagem. Assim discute-se os saberes que os professores adquirem e/ou reelaboram na prática pedagógica e que são por eles vistos como possibilidades de mudanças no processo ensino e aprendizagem que contemple um ensino de qualidade. O referencial adotado pauta-se em estudos sobre saberes docentes e sua prática, o conhecimento sobre os processos de ensino e aprendizagem e a formação dos professores que atuam nos anos finais do Ensino de Fundamental, tendo como autores principais, Tardif, Garrido, Gatti e Luckesi. Para tanto, procede-se à análise de documentos oficiais e à aplicação de um questionário a doze professores dos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental com o objetivo de conhecer aspectos da vida profissional, bem como as articulações que eles fazem entre saberes docentes, práticas profissionais e processo ensino e aprendizagem. Os resultados demonstram os saberes desenvolvidos pelos docentes, e as práticas pedagógicas que construíram ao longo de seu exercício profissional frente as dificuldades evidenciadas em alguns grupos de alunos. Por fim, os dados revelam a necessidade de se garantir discussões sobre o currículo das turmas dos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental de forma a se perceber que a evolução que os educadores almejam com todos os envolvidos no processo ensino e aprendizagem se ressignificam na prática do conhecimento.

Contradições como força de mudança: o processo de formação continuada de professores do ensino médio enquanto potencializador da práxis transformadora à luz da teoria histórico-cultural

The intervention research proposed was based on the Cultural-Historical Theory based on the laws and logic of materialism historical-dialectical. Therefore, we tried to design a research process that involved all as responsible for the process. In the field of continuous teacher's training usually has been found dualistic relationship / paradoxical processes as a result of the adopted training models which are characterized by individualist human processes. The teacher training work sought to overcome this dualism, to promote the unveiling of the contradictions with regard to teaching models. As a hypothesis, we imagined that immersed in this process, teachers recognize such contradictions, and this recognition would make the contradictions become the driving force of change in teaching practice, realizing the teaching-learning-development triad as the basis of praxis. Aiming to develop a process of continuing education to bring results to the professional teachers development looking for answer the following research question: How and what the changes of teachers who participated in the Didactic-Formative Intervention process raised the quality of their teaching practices? In this context, the objective of the research was to develop a process of Didactic-Formative Intervention from the perspective of Cultural-Historical Theory with high school teachers in order to theorize about the changes in pedagogical practices of teachers and learn aspects that transform the essence teaching practice. The research involved two high school teachers of a public school in Uberlândia-MG. The training meetings took place at the school through a collective study group between the years 2013 and 2015. As procedures were used two interconnected aspects: classes observations, and a theoretical and methodological training, both for diagnosis and for the process evaluation, the second aspect has a formative dimension, and a didactic dimension (double meaning) to form didactically the teacher and to elaborate didactic procedures. The collected data were analyzed by observing the assumptions of the method, analysis by units and the processuality. As results teachers showed changes in their teaching practices regarding the organization of the pedagogical work and also centered their design educational actions based on learning and development of the students. The presence of continuous diagnosis during the classes, work with a systems of concepts and their conceptual links, problematization as a teaching method can be pointed as meaningful changes in their praxis. Regarding the training activities that emerged from the analysis of the compiled materials and analyzed throughout the process can be emphasized: forming a collective group of school teachers continuous training, diagnostics, development of practical activities, increase relationships among participants, the choice of scientific material used should have direct relation to the needs of the participants, promoting conditions that enable the emergence of contradictions between the pedagogical practice of teachers and teaching based on the perspective of the Cultural-Historical Theory. This research craved to develop and design a teachers' training processes that increase the quality of teachers life and ways of teaching in the Brazilian public school.

Refletindo e investigando enquanto educadora/professora: contributos de uma pedagogia em participação na dinamização do espaço “canto da leitura”.

O presente relatório foi realizado no âmbito do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar e Ensino do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico, estando organizado em duas dimensões, a primeira referente à dimensão reflexiva e a segunda à dimensão investigativa. A primeira dimensão, a reflexiva, consiste na apresentação do percurso que realizei ao longo do Mestrado partindo das minhas expectativas antes das práticas pedagógicas, dos momentos de planificação, intervenção e reflexão/avaliação, das minhas dificuldades, e ainda das aprendizagens realizadas, procurando sempre estabelecer uma ponte com o meu desempenho profissional. Já a segunda dimensão, a investigativa, consiste na partilha do estudo realizado com um grupo de crianças de jardim-de-infância, onde se pretende compreender o contributo da participação das crianças na dinamização do espaço “canto da leitura” nas interações entre pares aí desenvolvidas. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo em que se pretende compreender que tipo de interações eram desenvolvidas no “canto da leitura” antes e depois de implementar as propostas educativas sugeridas pelas crianças e dinamizadoras do espaço. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam a importância de uma participação e postura ativas da criança na atribuição de sentido e significado às interações entre pares, reforçando-se o papel da pedagogia em participação no processo de desenvolvimento e aprendizagem das crianças.

Refletindo sobre a Prática Pedagógica em Educação de Infância e 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico – A perceção das crianças relativamente ao seu desempenho nas atividades de interpretação musical em contexto de sala de aula

O presente relatório integra o Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar e Ensino do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e apresenta-se constituído por duas dimensões: a reflexiva e a investigativa. A dimensão reflexiva é a primeira dimensão do relatório que se estrutura em três partes fundamentais. A primeira e a segunda partes incluem uma reflexão crítica sobre as práticas pedagógicas desenvolvidas em contexto de Educação de Infância e em 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico. A terceira refere-se aos papéis reflexivo e investigativo do educador e do professor, transversais aos dois contextos. A dimensão investigativa é a segunda dimensão do relatório, na qual se apresenta um estudo de caso realizado com cinco crianças do 3.º ano de escolaridade de uma escola dos arredores da cidade de Leiria. A investigação procurou resposta para a seguinte questão “Quais as perceções das crianças do 3.º ano de escolaridade sobre o seu desempenho nas atividades de interpretação musical, realizadas em contextos de sala de aula?”. Numa primeira fase, realizou-se a caracterização das experiências de participação musical da turma através de um inquérito por questionário. Foram utilizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, de caráter individual, antes e após a concretização de duas sequências de atividades para todos os alunos da turma. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que existem algumas alterações nas perceções dos aluno e que as propostas educativas implementadas com as crianças influenciaram positivamente as suas perceções relativamente à interpretação de canções.

Refletindo sobre a Prática Pedagógica em Educação de Infância e 1.º CEB: a flutuabilidade com crianças do 1.º ano

O presente relatório foi realizado no âmbito do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar e Ensino do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico, encontrando-se dividido em duas partes. A Parte I referente à dimensão reflexiva e a Parte II referente à dimensão investigativa. Na Parte I é apresentada uma reflexão crítica e fundamentada relativamente às minhas expetativas, principais aprendizagens e experiências mais marcantes em cada um dos contextos vivenciados nas Práticas Pedagógicas. Apresenta-se ainda uma breve reflexão sobre o que perspetivo ser enquanto futura educadora e professora, fazendo referência aos aspetos que considero essenciais para o bom exercício da profissão. Na parte II é apresentada a investigação realizada com uma turma do 1.º ano de escolaridade sobre as conceções dos alunos relativamente à flutuabilidade de objetos em água. O presente estudo apresenta um carácter qualitativo/interpretativo, uma vez que se pretendeu compreender as conceções alternativas dos alunos e perceber a influência das atividades práticas e experimentais na alteração dessas conceções iniciais. Os dados recolhidos revelam, de um modo geral, uma mudança das ideias iniciais dos alunos para ideias cientificamente mais corretas relativamente à flutuação de objetos. Verifica-se ainda que, mesmo os alunos que não alteraram por completo a sua conceção inicial modificaram em parte as suas ideias, recorrendo a exemplos das atividades realizadas em contexto de sala de aula. Este aspeto levou-me a considerar que o conjunto de atividades propostas teve uma influência positiva para os alunos.

A música nos currículos específicos individuais

Tendo como suporte a revisão bibliográfica, pretende-se com este estudo de caso de carater interpretativo, compreender qual o papel da música inserida nos currículos específicos individuais (CEI). O estudo pretende contribuir para uma maior compreensão acerca da inclusão da disciplina de Educação Musical nos CEI, conhecer as práticas pedagógicas desenvolvidas com alunos ao abrigo de um CEI e caraterizar e promover o desenvolvimento musical dos três alunos participantes. O trabalho empírico no qual foi delineada a investigação assenta numa metodologia qualitativa. Nos instrumentos de recolha de dados saliento, as entrevistas, as notas de campo e o círculo de desenvolvimento musical “Sound of Intent”. Os resultados reforçam a importância da formação docente na intervenção com crianças com NEE e a clara valorização do papel da música nestes currículos. Observa-se que os três alunos, embora caraterizados com perturbações de grau e patologia diferenciadas, e com manifestações variadas, mostram níveis de musical dos alunos, corresponde ao perfil descrito na literatura o que nos permite sugerir que as atividades e estratégias utilizadas contribuíram para o desenvolvimento das diferentes dimensões analisadas promovendo o desenvolvimento de competências musicais e extra musicais.

Refletindo sobre a Prática Pedagógica em Educação de Infância e em 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico: O Contributo da Expressão Dramática para o Desenvolvimento de Competências Expressivas e Comunicativas

O presente relatório surge no âmbito do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar e Ensino do 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e resulta das aprendizagens mais significativas realizadas ao longo das práticas pedagógicas em educação pré-escolar e do 1ºCEB. Este trabalho encontra-se dividido em dois capítulos. O primeiro, contempla a dimensão reflexiva que surge da análise crítica das situações mais marcantes, vivenciadas ao longo dos diferentes contextos educacionais. O propósito deste capítulo é refletir sobre receios, dificuldades, aprendizagens e estratégias utilizadas ao longo da prática, e dessa forma, melhorar intervenções futuras. O segundo capítulo, incide na dimensão investigativa onde é apresentado um estudo, de natureza qualitativa, realizado em contexto de 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico na área de Expressão Dramática. Este estudo foi realizado numa turma de 2º ano de escolaridade de uma escola da rede pública do Ministério da Educação, e teve como questão de investigação: “Qual o contributo da Expressão Dramática no desenvolvimento de competências comunicativas e expressivas?” Os resultados do estudo evidenciam que as sessões de Expressão Dramáticas, quando proporcionados aos alunos, influenciam positivamente a sua comunicação e expressão. Este estudo, ao facultar situações de desenvolvimento das capacidades comunicativas e expressivas, contribuiu para o desenvolvimento global e harmonioso das crianças, nomeadamente na sua desinibição e imaginação.
