Identificar las perplejidades, contradicciones, y dilemas emergentes de desarticulación entre la formación teórica y la práctica de los docentes. Analizar los medios, estrategias consideradas necesarias para la mejora de la profesionalización docente. Describir los principales modelos de formación de profesores y su relación con el desarrollo de competencias profesionales y personales de los docentes. Articular los modelos de formación como los modelos de actualización dentro de la escuela y el proceso a través del cual los alumnos construyen sus propios modelos y estilos de aprendizaje. Reconocer la formación inicial del profesorado como condición necesaria pero no suficiente. Atribuir a la formación permanente un papel fundamental y decisivo para la mejora de la enseñanza y aprendizaje dentro de las organizaciones educativas. Investigación histórica. La formación de los profesores supone el conjugar la teoría, la filosofía, metodología, técnica junto a procesos de reflexión, adquisiciones de inferencias y retroalimentación de las propias teorías. Los profesores y formadores serán mejores profesionales cuanto sean más conscientes de su práctica diaria en las instituciones formadoras, produciendo más y mejores reflexiones sobre su intervención profesional e institucional. Lo modelos de formación están caracterizados por los principios de la filosofía educativa en la cual están inmersos, por los objetivos y procesos que resultan de las posiciones tomadas entre la teoría y la práctica y el modo en el que cada uno de ellos se articula. Se advierte la necesidad de formar mejores profesionales, que se encuentren impregnados en la propia cultura profesional, y sean capaces de responder a la necesidad de una formación permanente, actualizada y dinámica en el desarrollo de su profesión.. El trabajo muestra el valor y reconocimiento de una formación inicial plástica que a la larga permitirá mejorar la reconversión profesional adaptando a los cambios dinámicos contribuyendo a anular al llamado -complejo de dinosaurio-. Se establece la necesidad de priorizar en el desarrollo de programas de formación permanente, centrados en la escuela, admitiendo que una formación de profesores puede ser una investigación de tipo social. Los docentes han de formarse para saber aprender, buscando, manipulando y utilizando la información con el dominio de las nuevas tecnologías. Se han de revalorizar los aspectos éticos y culturales de la formación, que permita a los profesores el autoconocimiento, reflexión, crítica y autocrítica autoconstructivas, acompañando estos procesos del respeto a la persona humana. Para promover el desarrollo permanente se hace urgente flexibilizar los sistemas educativos como sus respectivas reformas. Los sistemas flexibles son sistemas pedagógicamente ecológicos, esto es, la posibilidad de permanente adaptación de las estructuras de la modificación de ambientes culturales; luego, a las reformas. Las reformas han de ser pedagógicamente ecológicas, una verdadera reforma es aquella que obliga a pensar constantemente , que se trata de una de un proceso de reforma. Es necesario una revalorización de la función docente: Una mejora de la imagen social de los profesores, una motivación para la incorporación a la carrera docente. Los docentes no pueden responder a los desafíos del futuro si no poseen los conocimientos ni las competencias necesarias que les demanda la sociedad, ni disponen de las cualidades personales, motivación y satisfacción profesional. Finalmente, la formación de profesores contempla la formación de profesionales altamente cualificados, además de profesionales visionarios, emprendedores y responsables de su instrucción y desarrollo de la sociedad de la cual forman parte. Los profesores constituyen los pilares de la construcción del futuro.

Uma Análise da Satisfação e da Motivação dos Docentes no Ensino Superior Português

O pessoal docente é um recurso fundamental nas instituições de ensino superior tendo um papel determinante na prossecução dos objectivos da instituição. A satisfação no trabalho é importante na revitalização da motivação dos docentes e manter vivo o seu entusiasmo. A literatura revela que o conceito de satisfação no trabalho é constituído por um conjunto complexo de variáveis que interagem numa miríade de formas. Explicações simplistas e ingénuas da satisfação no trabalho abundam em todos os sectores de actividade. A mais típica é a crença errónea de que os incentivos remuneratórios per se criarão níveis de motivação efectivos e, como tal, satisfação global no trabalho. Existem variáveis intrínsecas relacionadas com o crescimento e desenvolvimento pessoal, e factores extrínsecos associados à segurança no ambiente de trabalho. Existe também uma evidência ampla e bastante óbvia de que a satisfação profissional está relacionada com a motivação dos trabalhadores. Embora se tenham realizado diversos estudos a nível mundial, muito pouco é conhecido no contexto do ensino superior em Portugal sobre esta temática. Este artigo apresenta um estudo em curso em Portugal - PTDC/ESC/67784/2006 – Estudo da Satisfação e Motivação dos Académicos no Ensino Superior Português (ESMAESP), financiado pela Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, que visa identificar os factores que se relacionam com a satisfação e a motivação do pessoal docente.

Análise da associação entre a perda de peso e a actividade física actual, no acompanhamento de adultos obesos mórbidos após cirurgia bariátrica

Em Portugal 0,6% dos adultos são obesos mórbidos. Como a cirurgia bariátrica tem vindo a ganhar popularidade no tratamento desta população, o objectivo principal do presente trabalho é analisar a associação entre a perda de peso e os hábitos de actividade física em adultos obesos mórbidos submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica. Como objectivo secundário estudámos a associação entre os hábitos de actividade física actuais e a maximização da perda de peso, bem como, a sua associação à capacidade aeróbia, nesta população. Este trabalho divide-se em duas partes fundamentais, a primeira uma revisão sistemática da literatura que sumarizou os efeitos da actividade física e/ou exercício físico após cirurgia bariátrica como parte de uma abordagem multidisciplinar. Este estudo permitiu constatar impactos benéficos sobre variáveis antropométricas e da composição corporal, níveis de actividade física/exercício físico, aptidão física, aptidão física funcional, qualidade de vida e marcadores bioquímicos após cirurgia bariátrica. A segunda parte, um estudo experimental onde participaram 75 obesos mórbidos submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 65 anos. Os sujeitos responderam a um questionário sobre hábitos de actividade física, que analisou os hábitos de actividade física e a sua associação à aptidão cardiorrespiratória e à maximização da perda de peso nesta população. Verificou-se uma associação positiva entre a perda de peso e actividade física. Observou-se, ainda, que os participantes que relataram maior intensidade e mais tempo dispendido em actividade física/exercício físico apresentaram um aumento no consumo máximo de oxigénio no pós-operatório. Propõe-se, portanto, que a actividade física/exercício físico seja uma parte essencial de um programa de acompanhamento após cirurgia bariátrica.

Trabalho colaborativo : alavanca do desenvolvimento profissional docente

Longe vão os tempos em que a formação inicial dos docentes era tida como suficiente para o desempenho da profissão. Hoje, a sociedade e o poder político requisitam aos professores maior abrangência nas suas competências profissionais, no sentido de estes serem capazes de responder adequadamente às exigências que enfrentam. A tutela, por seu turno, responde com programas de apoio do tipo TEIP (Território Educativo de Intervenção Prioritária) à enorme variedade de alunos e contextos socioeconómicos. É no seio desta realidade que se coloca a questão: como implementar práticas colaborativas, potenciadoras do desenvolvimento profissional dos professores do Departamento de Matemática e Ciências Experimentais, numa escola TEIP? Fullan e Hargreaves (2001) defendem que só a existência de um trabalho conjunto, a responsabilidade partilhada, o empenhamento e o aperfeiçoamento coletivos, a maior disponibilidade para participar na difícil atividade de reflexão crítica, acerca do trabalho realizado, e uma cultura colaborativa é que poderão conduzir a progressos significativos, na melhoria dos resultados e, consequentemente, no real desenvolvimento profissional docente. Contudo, quer a abertura das salas de aula ao exterior, quer a inclusão de todos os alunos nas mesmas, representam ainda, e em geral, um desafio para muitos docentes. É neste contexto que se apresenta um projeto de formação que tem, como campo de análise, a formação de professores, centrada na escola e ancorada na colaboração e supervisão interpares. A formação referida visa: desenvolver uma cultura de positividade e propositividade; criar, promover, analisar e partilhar experiências e inovações realizadas em contexto; desenvolver experiências consequentes sob o ponto de vista do desenvolvimento profissional docente, ao nível da sala de aula; refletir, em conjunto, sobre estratégias exequíveis e indutoras da melhoria do comportamento e das aprendizagens dos discentes. Com estes propósitos, ancorar-se-á a oficina de formação na criação de tarefas a serem experimentadas em contexto, na observação de aulas e na experiência dos intervenientes, baseada na reflexão sobre as práticas e focalizada nos problemas correntes. A expectativa sobre os resultados a obter com esta formação é grande e alicerça-se no trabalho empírico levado a cabo, tendo os principais resultados apontado, claramente, no sentido da necessidade e disponibilidade, por parte dos docentes, para participarem numa oficina de formação cujos objetivos fossem os citados.

Nas asas de Ícaro: uma análise da Pedagogia Freinet do 2º ao 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental na perspectiva da ação docente continuada

Célestin Freinet was one of the most memorable educators of the twentieth century. He presented some educational alternatives that had the objective of stimulating the construction of pedagogic actions to promote the social development of the student based upon a work centered on the free expression as the way to self-structure the knowledge. With a permanent proposal of research based on the enquiry-based learning, Freinet set human capacity (cognitive, social-affective, psychometrical) taking cooperation in consideration on the processes of knowledge construction. Based on this referential, this present work has the objective to show Freinet s pedagogy in a continuous teaching action from 2nd to 5th grade focusing the teacher s discourse and also the educative practice of the students of a city public school in Natal. The observed work revealed the teacher s discourse and educative experience and delineated the students development while immersed into Freinet s educational practice. By virtue of the nature and specificity of the theme that guided our research, we chose a qualitative approach to it, as a way of conducting ourselves during our investigative process. We observed and analyzed the method that was used to conduct the activities in the classroom, as well as the ways of expression that the children used through drawings, words (oral text), or through writing. We highlight, among the written texts, the individual and collective texts, and also letters and notes, which during some moments served as a base to express a diversity of languages. The results, after a analyzing the research data, point towards a teaching practice that favors the construction of a significant learning process through the grasping of the school environment, on which all these factors are based: society, knowledge acquisition, abilities, attitudes and values. This learning process also strengthens human solidarity bonds and mutual tolerance, on which the student s social life is seated.

O sindicato como espaço de construção da profissão docente

This work examines the connection Syndicate/teachers profession trying to unveil the important role taken over by the Syndical movement in the process of professionalization of the militant teachers. For that, it describes and analyses the historical course of three Syndicates representatives of the teachers category Associação dos Professores Licenciados da Bahia APLB; Sindicato dos Trabalhadores em Educação de Pernambuco SINTEPE; Sindicato dos Servidores Municipais de Petrolina SINDSEMP acting in the micro-region of the San Francisco Valley, especially, in the municipalities of Juazeiro Bahia , and of Petrolina Pernambuco. It concentrates its interests on the contribution of the Syndicates for the professional development of these teachers in this region analysing the aspects related to emerging conflicts into the Syndical organization, to the attitude of these entities before the educational reality to their reinvindicative struggles to the formative dimension of the group actions. This study tries to answer the following questions: How has this syndical movement of teachers of state school of S. Francisco Valley been characterized? How do their actions reflect in the formation and professionalization of the teachers? Do teachers recognize the syndicate as a constructive space for the teaching profession? The methodological trajectory was directed through a qualitative approach of an etnomethodological character, using instruments for the understanding of this reality, The treatment of the data was based on the interpretative analysis of the speeches present in documents and through answers of the interviwees, having as a reference in this analysis the theoretical studies about syndicalism and the teacher professionalization. For a conceptual construction of this work it was studied these two categories from their genesis, from the social historical evolution of their concepts and the up to date discussions that give explanations about the teachers syndical movement and about the process of teachers professionalization. As thesis of this study it was defended the idea of that the teachers syndicates have contributed expressively in the process of the construction of the teacher profession of the militant teachers of this in the micro-region of the S. Francisco Valley. Once the teachers participate actively in this movement promoted by the syndical entities, the teachers develop the critical sense of the educational realty; improve their formation and reinvindicate from the State this condition as a Right; fight for better conditions in the work; reinvindicate the salary valuation and, try to construct an image of teacher basing on a professional model. The contribution of the Syndicate in the process of teachers profissionalization, is more evident in its external dimension that chacterizes the profissionalism, on the related aspects: to the forms of participation in the definition and the management of the educational politics; to the political struggles for the achievements of the professional status, to the recognition and of his eventual valuation. The syndical actions have repercussions with less intensity in the inside dimension that defines the profissionality, in the related aspects: to the administratation of the pedagogical processes in schools and in the classroom; to the acquisition of branches of knowledges; to the epistemological criticism of the acquirements mobilized in the teaching; the curricular question to the mediation that make possible the learning at school and in the classroom

Tear identitário:a prática docente em arte como conhecimento compartilhado

This investigative tissue is about the formation of identification processes of teachers and pedagogical practice of Art, in Teresina city. This search comprised the sum of the needs presented, agreed upon with the teachers engaged in the process, it was developed through the establishment of interactive environment Loom Team where collaboration and critical reflection were steering actions to promote the understanding of existing connections or relations within the processes of identifications and the pedagogical practice of Art. The tissue is formed by the polyphonic plot of the critical reflection of nine teachers of Art who engaged voluntarily and this investigation of formative nature and a production of knowledge. All these teachers have degree and the course of artistic education and especial qualification in Fine Arts and/or Drawing. The texture, which we denominated Identification Loom: The pedagogical practice of Art as share knowledge is (de) (re) construction of knowledge resulting from the critical reflection, in an environment of collaboration, which may have implications and ethical political attitudes in the pedagogical practice of the group. Within this context, we pose the following question: - How does the pedagogical practice in Art influence and/or be influenced by the identification processes of the teachers, and how do they interfere with the search and manifestation of the knowledge involved and the investment in professionalization? In view of this query, we make use of the cooperative investigation, having social history as theoretical reference and as analytic perspective of interactive and dialogical-reflexive processes. Thus, social historic theory, cooperative approach and pedagogical practice were the major components of the plot. The methodological texture counted on the threads of dialogical reflexion, of mediation and of collaboration. The conceptual formulation, the recording in videos of classes and the narratives of formations were the main threads of the analytic substrate of the investigation. With this articulation, theses threads appear as developers of processes leading to a major approximation of the thought on the identity/alterity dialectical pair of the participants involved. The language within this plot had a decisive importance in all the moments of the search of signification, embracing and connecting the identification/alterative processes, the pedagogical practice of Art and the knowledge shared. In such processes involving (de) (re) construction, one can notice a close correlation of the triad social identity, pedagogical practice and knowledge shared. For this reason, the vigotskian, guetmanovian and kopnian theoretizations were the major framework for the analysis of conceptual formulations; and, as for discourse analysis, Baktin and Orlandi were our masters. For these teachers, the experience shared throughout the process of this typology of tri-axial investigation focused the experience of many theoretical and practical assumptions. Such an experience enabled them to state that this, with collaboration, can make reflection on the practice a starting and promoting element, within the individual level of self-management, in addition to being a space of (de)(re)construction of meanings, of knowledge and of reinvention per se

Concepções de infância e de educação infantil que permeiam a prática docente

This investigation proposes to analyze the teaching practice in the Child Education, considering the childhood and the Child Education conceptions declared by the teachers. It was opted as methodological approach the qualitative conception of research, marking a critical perspective of the subjects, and their relations in the educational processes. It was privileged as instruments of construction of the data, the observation of the practices of the teachers developed in the ordinary day, the semistructured interviews, and the documental analysis to complement information, through the developing report of the students, done by the teachers in the end of the teaching year. This way, from the understanding of the childhood in a social perspective, and historically constructed, considering the concrete children insertion in the social reality and the child as a whole subject and by rights, it was developed the interpretative analysis of the data. The investigated reality showed that the childhood conceptions linked to the comprehension of child and child development, declared by the teachers, subjects of the research, have been associated, in some aspects, to the present thought of thinking and acting in relation to the small child, evidencing, consequently, several limitations of pedagogical order, and the demanding evidence of a bigger development of the teachers about the question.

Alfabetizar letrando: investigação-ação fundada nas necessidades de formação docente

The accomplished researches in the education field focus on the importance of the accomplishment of actions involved in the analysis of the needs to graduate teachers as a way to adequate to socialcultural changing that require more and more a creative activity to prepare teachers in their graduation perspective. The worry with a fail at school linked to public school students lead us to make this thesis which goals are: investigate the needs of the graduation of teachers at public Elementary Schools concerning to the subjacent knowledge to the development of a pedagogic practice of alphabetizing with literacy and (re)create, with some teachers as active participants in the researches, knowledge regarding the process of alphabetization with literacy , based on the graduation of teachers. The study was accomplished in a municipal Elementary School in the Ceará-Mirim city, located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, which offers both I and II levels of the Elementary School, 7 teachers and the principal of the school were subjects of our researches. The starting point was the needs of the graduation as subject phenomena, socially created and that allow people to be aware of the goals of a graduation. The investigative broach is qualitative, whose fundamental purpose is the understanding of the meanings, symbols, values and intentions of the mankind actions, as regards to other humanbeing and the contexts in which they interact. Within this context, we chose the investigation-action for we consider this kind of research a place for investigation and professional graduation, in which teachers and the researcher herself assume responsibility of problematizing, build the needs of graduation and think about their practices. As proceedings to create and analyze data, we developed participant observations during the activities in classroom; semi-structured interviews (individual and in groups) with teachers and the principal; analysis of documents and meetings at school for reflexive studies that enabled us to gather data in a pyramidal panoramic view and analyze the contents. The research revealed that the analysis of necessities to graduate teachers is a resource able to contribute to the planning of projects of keeping on graduating more properly, and thus create a critical and reflexive identity for teachers. This way, it was possible the graduation necessities could be revealed and also the knowledge of teachers as regards to alphabetization inserted in a perspective of literacy. Nowadays, conceptualized needs upon difficulties of teachers, there is a tendency to translate them into theorization of problems, without application to these knowledge of teachers, as well as their wishes for changing, especially when those needs are built to analyze and consider concrete practices. Therefore, the graduation experiences have enabled the abandon of a mechanical broach for teaching reading and writing. It has also lead teachers to assume a posture of providing their students the understanding about the reading and writing processes and their functions as social instruments. The graduation theme contents allowed the knowledge to conceive reading and writing in new perspectives, according to their social functions, so that they can improve the education with literacy quality. This theoretical construction has enabled us to understand and consider the necessities of the graduation as progressive process, and has given us the possibility of re-think our own learning processes at the university and review the pedagogical practices of public school teachers. Our conclusion is that once teachers consider their own graduation needs, it contributes to change their concepts and practices in education and literacy, even though there used to be many difficulties in their graduation and organization of the pedagogical work
