Um modelo complexo do ato educativo

O currículo, enquanto área de estudo e investigação, tem uma história relativamente recente, como todos sabemos. A sua afirmação identitária deveu-se ao facto de ter um objecto de estudo bem específico e delimitado, que não se confunde nem com a psicologia, nem com a sociologia, estas sim, ciências autónomas de longa data. No entanto, uma delimitação estrita das fronteiras do currículo, relativamente a outras áreas científicas que com ela interagem, pode levar a um seu esvaziamento conceptual, transformando-a, afinal, num mero enunciado de intenções e regras de bem ensinar e avaliar que, por serem normativas e prescritivas, a despojariam do seu estatuto científico. Se é certo que o currículo não se consegue dissociar do poder que o determina (seja ele do Estado, da Região, da Escola ou da Turma – estes últimos se pensarmos nos actuais Projectos Educativos e Curriculares de Escola e de Turma), ele só ganha sentido na sua relação directa com a prática, ou seja, o currículo, para ser currículo, necessita de ser desenvolvimento curricular. Primeiro, entendido ao nível da interpretação e análise crítica do professor sobre o que o poder pretende que ele ensine, e depois na relação com a sua própria operacionalização curricular, ou seja, o acto educativo. Esta reflexão visa perspectivar as diversas leituras curriculares, desde a perspectiva simplista, unidimensional, passando pela visão sequencialmente organizada, até desembocar numa abordagem necessariamente complexa do acto educativo.

Weblog e identidade: uma experiência no 1º Ciclo do E.B.

Esta comunicação pretende evidenciar o papel da escrita em Weblogs na construção de identidades. Para esta investigação qualitativa de natureza etnográfica, o investigador acompanhou entre Maio de 2005 e Junho de 2006 uma turma do 4º ano de escolaridade, de uma escola urbana do Funchal, enquanto os alunos construíam e mantinham Weblogs. Os conceitos de identidade, autoria, autonomia e criatividade ganham visibilidade à medida que os alunos constroem o conhecimento, em contextos específicos de aprendizagem. A escrita em Weblogs individuais e colectivos expressa projectos e possibilita um enriquecimento das relações constituídas na sala de aula e fora dela. A interacção comunicativa, entre os posts e os comentários do blog analisado estabelece um movimento que interliga a compreensão, como relação dialéctica na confrontação de sentidos. O fenómeno é analisado a partir de diversas fontes de dados: opiniões dos alunos, sobre aquele artefacto; opiniões da professora e dos encarregados de educação, de forma a reunir uma reflexão mais abrangente do tema. Os resultados mostram como a escrita em Weblogs incorpora, pode projectar e concorrer para a consolidação de identidades para além do horizonte da sala de aula. Por outras palavras,cumprir um papel formativo e educativo.

Património musical madeirense: a preservação da identidade através do currículo

O objetivo do presente estudo consiste em perceber o papel do currículo na preservação da identidade cultural. O estudo justifica-se pelo seu contributo original no campo do currículo, mediante uma investigação pioneira e inédita no que diz respeito à articulação entre o currículo, a identidade e o património musical madeirense. Para compreender aquele processo, recorremos a um trabalho de campo, caracterizado por um estudo exploratório, sob a égide da abordagem qualitativa, abrangendo todos os professores de Educação Musical da Região Autónoma da Madeira. Como instrumentos de recolha, assinalamos: observação de conferências e a análise das planificações no âmbito do projeto Regionalização do Currículo de Educação Musical (RCEM), entrevistas semiestruturadas, inquérito por questionário e análise documental. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo, organizados em seis categorias, e os dados quantitativos foram analisados através de uma grelha do programa excel. Dos resultados do estudo, evidenciamos: reconhecimento da importância da construção curricular local; integração de componentes regionais e locais no currículo como prática comum a todos os professores; valorização das atividades práticas e dos saberes dos alunos, constitui um vetor importante para a motivação; constatação de uma boa adesão pela maioria dos alunos às propostas naquele âmbito; reconhecimento de que as novas sonoridades são um fator de motivação; reconhecimento de carência de formação no âmbito do projeto RCEM; conhecimento e utilização de vários materiais pedagógicos no âmbito do projeto RCEM; existência de um conhecimento geral do património imaterial madeirense; conhecimento da grande maioria das instituições e grupos culturais musicais e da sua importância na pesquisa e divulgação do património; constatação de uma fraca colaboração entre aquelas instituições e a escola; reconhecimento de que a cultura demarca a identidade; constatação de que a música é um veículo de identidade; reconhecimento de que música madeirense representa um legado histórico; reconhecimento de que educação ajuda a formar a identidade do aluno, considerando que o currículo é um documento de identidade. Estes resultados sustentam a posição da educação, através do currículo, como vetor de transmissão cultural e formação da identidade.

A (re)construção do PCT: uma abordagem às práticas dos professores no âmbito da gestão/flexibilização curricular. Um estudo numa turma do 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico RAM

Num mundo marcado pela globalização e mundialização dos problemas, um mundo igualmente em busca da preservação das raízes locais e identitárias, novas exigências se impõem à escola, no sentido de esta acompanhar as mudanças ocorridas e se adaptar às novas realidades. Uma adaptação que passa por soluções cada vez mais flexíveis e diferenciadas, pressupondo ou implicando uma mudança igualmente ao nível das políticas educativas, numa sociedade também ela cada vez mais heterogénea, pelo que a resposta está na “diversificação e gestão local do currículo”, em cujo âmbito a “(re)construção do PCT” vai assumir uma importância singular. Assim, o estudo que agora apresentamos propõe-se analisar, de maneira crítica e fundamentada, as conceções e as práticas dos docentes de uma turma do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico do Funchal – RAM, no campo da reorganização curricular para este nível de ensino, estabelecida pelo Decreto-Lei n.º 6/2001, procurando entender “de que forma é que eles (re)constroem o seu PCT”, enquanto ferramenta para uma gestão curricular flexível e adequada à diversidade da turma a que se destina, à sua realidade mais particular ou específica. Nesse sentido, a recolha de dados implicou uma abordagem qualitativa, consubstanciada pela análise de documentos referentes às entrevistas, aos inquéritos por questionário, aos Projetos da escola (PEE e PCE) e ao Projeto da turma dos docentes nele envolvidos (PCT), e ainda às observações levadas a cabo na mesma. Não obstante as limitações que um estudo desta natureza apresenta, os resultados apontam para a urgência de uma mudança ao nível das práticas neste âmbito. Por conseguinte, percebemos que os docentes, de um modo geral, dominam a noção de PCT e as conceções a ele inerentes, e reconhecem as vantagens da sua (re)construção, sobretudo ao nível da oferta educativa e consequente melhoria da aprendizagem dos alunos. No entanto, também percebemos que falta melhorar certos aspetos ao nível da ação, melhor dizendo, da interação e colaboração docente, para uma mudança significativa das práticas, para uma verdadeira (re)construção do PCT. De qualquer modo, ficou patente a necessidade de uma aposta na formação dos professores, de forma a promover e estimular neles uma “cultura de Projeto”, e a dotálos com as devidas competências que lhes permitam práticas colaborativas e os ajudem na (re)construção de PCT com sentido, numa escola para todos.

O Litoral e a metrópole dinâmica imobiliária, turismo e expansão urbana na região metropolitana de Natal-RN

The metropolitan regions of Northeast Brazil are being gradually included in a scenario of international investments, which are motivated by the restructuring of both touristic and real-estate sectors. The new capital, real-estate developers and space configurations that result from this process indicate the need for the creation and implementation of public tools which should, at least, allow the mitigation of the urban impacts and environmental losses resulting from this situation. The effects on landscape and on the socio-spatial configuration result from the intensification caused by the dynamism of the "real estate-tourism" sector. There is a regional integration as an expression of the urban expansion of the metropolitan area of Natal. This study investigates the uniqueness of the restructuring and territorial integration of coastal areas and the strategies of the circuit of capital accumulation formed by linking the real estate to tourism. It is intended to increase the understanding about the strategies of tourism, real estate and public policy agents involved in this territorial reconfiguration and in the fund-raising needed for the investments, to understand the existing social and environmental effects and their future trends and also to understand the forms of spatial production as results from the practices of approaching the land transformation and the tourism valorization of the landscape, in a synchronous manner, first in the Northeast region and, as a focal study, in the Metropolitan Area of Natal. Likewise, it is intended to apprehend the current processes of metropolization of the eastern coast of Rio Grande do Norte, in addition to indicate its physical-territorial transformation and the types of projects/developments promoted by the market in the recent period. Based upon analysis undertaken for the Metropolitan Region of Natal RN, this piece of work presents some considerations on possible legal instruments that can be adjusted to the municipalities which are experiencing the impact of this peculiar and recent phenomenon in the region, caused by the arrival of the real estate-touristic capital. It is also intended to point out basic proposals to the forms of public intervention, in a speculative way, starting from a Metropolitan Planning project within a medium and long term

Espaços especiais em Natal (moradia e meio ambiente): um necessário diálogo entre direitos e espaços na perspectiva de proteção aos direitos fundamentais na cidade contemporânea

Some protected special spaces on behalf of fundamental rights to the environment and the housing at the city of Natal are fragile by facing actions and attempts to suppress and changing (or omission in the implementation) of standards in furtherance of those rights at the local level, which seems to reflect a situation that goes beyond the context of the city. Based on integrated approach of the housing rights and the environment and its protection of special spaces on the field of fundamental rights, the thesis seeks to understand the weaknesses that affect the legal state duty under the realization/implementation of fundamental rights to the environment and housing in cities, focusing on the issues of flexibility of the founding legislation of special spaces to the detriment of the attributes they protected and the lack of implementation of the legal system that allows their effectiveness. So, it looks initially to understand the environment and housing rights and their special protected areas in the brazilian legal system, looking forward the evolution of its legal protection, as well as the weaknesses that emerge in the field of their effectiveness. Analyzing the trajectory of the environment and housing rights and their special protected areas in Natal, considering its standards, attributes, protection indicators, weaknesses and negative evidence within its legal protections and their enforcement by state entity, this thesis proposes to verify the existence of forms to confronting the weaknesses founded in the maintenance of legal protection and its implementation. At this point it discusses the legal basis and safeguard instruments of protection, especially within the juridical field, as part of a (re)discussion about issues of legislative and administrative discretion in the face of objective legal state duty to realization/implementation of fundamental rights in the urban space. With all these issues together the thesis does not ignore the scenario where the dividing line between public and private (economic) are becoming ever more tenuous in the field of state action and where the city stands as a special commodity to the reproduction of real estate, according to the interests of capitalist logic

Outorga onerosa do direito de construir e dinâmica do mercado imobiliário formal: planejamento e descaminhos na expansão urbana de Parnamirim RN (2008-2010)

The `Outorga Onerosa do Direito de Construir - OODC` (Public Concession of Building Rights), instrument instituted by The City Statute in 2001, has as main objective the recovery of urban property, seeking for a fair distribution the urbanization benefits. The possibility of usage of the OODC instrument is linked to the maximum utilization coefficient, determined to specific areas in accordance to existing infrastructure conditions, further taking into account the formal real estate market, expansion axis and crowding. Being an instrument which establishes values to be paid for a better use of land, it maintains a narrow relation to the real estate, incentivizing or discouraging the crowding in specific areas. The present study investigates the relationship between the criteria for the making of the Public Concession of Building Rights instrument and the dynamics of the formal real estate market. It takes as empiric universe Parnamirim (RN), part of the Natal Metropolitan Area (RN), focusing on the application of the OODC in the period of 2008-2010. It seeks to better understand the necessary basis for the formulation of the instrument, about how it works and its relation to the formal real estate market. It aims to depict the formal real estate market by presenting the production of urban space in Parnamirim in terms of intensity and nature of the real estate, furthermore identifying the licensed properties through the application of the municipality instrument. For the conclusion, it is discussed the criteria for the formation of OODC, its relationship to the dynamics of the formal real estate market and its influencing possibilities in the processes of usage and occupation of land in the context of urban planning

Configurando a cidade contemporânea em Natal : os processos espaciais em Ponta Negra

This dissertation is about the spatial configuration in Natal and processes in the Ponta Negra neighborhood today. Ponta Negra has undergone a number of critical social and spatial changes due to tourism development after the 1990s. It is of special interest to consider the intensification of real estate investment after 2000, when the new airport terminal, located in the neighboring municipality of Parnamirim, was in use. Ponta Negra is the place where most tourists go to, so attracting considerable public investments. New agents of transformation have produced change in the neighborhood as well. The present study aims at analysing the spatial processes in this part of the city. Here, the spatial configuration that resulted from extended real estate investments, both public and private, in recent years, is analysed in detail. The study identifies the multually differentiated, however internally homogenous areas. The concepts of production of space, contemporanean urban development and spatial dynamics are discussed. The research is based on document analysis and field work. Results were plotted to maps and tables. A detailed analysis of the spatial processes in the Ponta Negra neighborhood is undertaken as a conclusion, considering the contemporanean global scenario

De gata borralheira a Cinderela :nova espacialidade decorrente do desenvolvimento turístico, diferenciada pelo estilo de vida em Ponta Negra, Natal, RN

The transformations economical, social and politics in you finish them decades of the century XX brought changes that didn't just limit to the production system. The flexible accumulation took many workers lost her/it their workstations and they look for her/it new survival forms, migrating for administrative activities, of services rendered and for the tourist activity of small and medium load. The State has been investing in the implantation of plans of tourist development in order to create favorable conditions for the reproduction of the tourist activity in Brazil, mainly in the Northeast. A space when it starts to present a predominant economical activity suffers a restructuring in their social and economical relationships. The restructuring of these relationships takes to the construction of a new espacialidade. In the city of Christmas, in Rio Grande do Norte, the neighborhood of Black Tip is the most representative of the public investments for the tourist development. After intense process of tourist urbanization, Black Tip passed interfering in the global context consolidating as the tourist locus in the city. The tourist urbanization of the neighborhood took to the transformation of the space in merchandise that is sold and consumed as such. The recreation of fragments of other cultures brought by social actors, resulting from migratory processes stimulated by the tourist development, it has been presenting ruled social relationships in the informational technology, consumption of global goods and in the fragmentation of the urban space characterized by the internationalization and cosmopolitização. That process has been masking the inequalities partners and cultural as well as the territorial appropriation for an economical elite. The spaces are being appropriate for investors of the tourist section, private investors, agents and real estate producers, where the inequality is not just economical, but also cultural. The local population, mainly of the urban fraction of the Town of Black Tip, it doesn't participate of the productive process in function of the little or any professional qualification and he/she doesn't also have access to the consumption process. To the native ones it remains the fight for the preservation of his/her cultural identity and for the survival

A produção capitalista do espaço: os loteamentos, os condomínios fechados e o seu papel na formação do Bairro de Nova Parnamirim/Parnamirim-RN

This work exposed desired to investigate the function of evolution of closed allotment, of market of the earth and of forms of extraction of the lace of earth, in the processes capitalist production of urban space in Nova Parnamirim, community of Parnamirim/RN. This tendentious urbanization were marked for an expressive increase of number of horizontal and vertical closed residences joint ownership concerning at social groups more privileged financial position.

This way, make necessary understand the past of local structure earth, in order that to make possible analyze the beginning of the process. Not enough, appealed the publics institutions as immobile notary s office and secretary municipal for to collect the more important information, and in the field through of application of formulary together the population of ward, in order that of examine the motivation of residential establishment inside. Make this, confirmed that the actual spatial organization of ward of Nova Parnamirim started of two allotments: the Vale do Pitimbú Park and Eucaliptos Park, both divided in several little allotments. Before of begin the ward, allotments reproduced set off from that native has been consigned during the 80, 90 decade s and begin the actual century, resigning a complicated urban structure earth, dynamized by exploration of a promising residential area. Leashed of this, confirmed the installation of logic of segregation and auto-segregation conducted by an immobile market which exclude the poor class and absorb rich class, motivate by perspective of obtaining of urban lace of earth by immobile promoter. However, perceived that the growth this market was promoted by migration of groups of capital, interior of state and others regions of country. Not distant, horizontal and vertical closed residences represent production forms of a new form of residence, corresponding the pattern architectonic as socioeconomics, strengthened by ideal of security, quality of life, necessity of reclusion and of proximity of Natal. Is in the capital which this individual found possibilities of attend satisfactory minimum of yours necessity in relation a consumption of bens and specialized and specifics services. Before this qualitative perceive that the social and spacial differential of Nova Parnamirim was the responsible by soil and habitation valorization of ward, that reinforce the promotion of segregation and of auto-segregation, and consequently, of capitalist reproduction of urban space

Produção do espaço e transformações urbanas no litoral sul de João Pessoa - PB

This present work has as its objective the analysis of transformations relating to the production processes in the Southern littoral urban space of the city of João Pessoa PB. The research estimated that the urban space is the product, means and condition of the society which produces it. The object-area of this inquiry is constituted of five districts: Altiplano Cabo Branco, Portal do Sol, Ponta do Seixas, Penha and Costa do Sol. The urban expansion which occurs in this area is characterized by the appearance of sufficient contradictory space phenomenona. On the other hand, the launching of real estate products such as the horizontal closed condominiums, directed towards the upper class, and the occurrence of areas of irregular occupation, inhabited by lower socioeconomic class and with a great lack of infrastructure and basic urban services, revealing the social contradictions. Due to this, processes such as auto-segregation and segregation imposed beyond the precarious and delinquent inclusion, has become the determining characteristic of this part of the city in analysis. The study also takes into account the appreciation of the new urban environmental zoning of Altiplano do Cabo Branco and from this moment on, start the discussion about the tendencies of urban expansion in this area, due to the interests and strategies of the real estate sector and the prominent role of the government in the current valorization process of urban soil of the area. The presence of residuals of agricultural businesses indicates a typical picture of the peri-urban areas configuring what we observe today at the Southern littoral of João Pessoa

Mercado imobiliário informal e dinâmica urbana: o caso do bairro de Mãe Luiza Natal/RN

This paper aims at analyzing the dynamics of informal housing in Mãe Luiza, in the context of real estate valuation of the city of Natal/RN, which, like any other urban center, has problems related to access to urban land, which increasingly more is appreciated due to their scarcity and, consequently, has led to the segregation of urban spaces. Recently, the informal housing market has received special attention by scholars who wish to discuss the production of space and ways of access to urban land and housing, especially for those disadvantaged by the housing policies of the government where these exist. When talking about the housing market, we are automatically referring to concepts or categories intrinsic to the existing mode of production in our society - the capitalism. Thus, the categories: income, value (use and exchange), commodity, capital, profits and capital gains, along with other important concepts as well as land use (urban) and real estate agents are of great relevance to discussion we intend to do within the context of production space
