Habilidades perceptivas visuais e qualidade de escrita de escolares com dislexia

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to characterize and compare the visual perceptual skills and writing quality of students with dyslexia, with good academic performance, and to relate the perceptual visual motor skills and the writing quality of students with dyslexia, with good academic performance. METHODS: 40 students participated in this study; 35 males and 5 females, from 8 to 11 years and 11 months, who attended from the 3rd to 5th grade level of public municipal schools of Marília-SP, divided into two groups: Group I (GI) comprised 20 students with interdisciplinar diagnoses of dyslexia, and Group II (GII) comprised 20 students with good academic performance. The Visual Perceptual Skills Test - TVPS-3 and the Disgraphy Scale were applied. RESULTS: The results obtained from this study showed that the students with dyslexia presented difficulties in visual skills concerning discrimination and memory. Besides discrimination and memory skills, it was observed inferior performance concerning the relation visual spacial skills and steady form, and inferior performance in all the visual skills, when compared to the chronological age. However, the group of students with good academic performance has also presented inferior performance concerning the relation visual spacial skills and steady form. CONCLUSIONS: The study mentions that maybe schools do not invest sufficiently in activities which envolve visual experiences necessary for the enhancement of reading and writing. Although statistically significant difference was not observed between the groups concerning disgraphy, it iwas possible to observe that a higher amount of students presented disgraphy.

A linguagem escrita na perspectiva de educadores: subsídios para propostas de assessoria fonoaudiológica escolar

PURPOSE: to describe a proposal that may contribute to the development of actions promoting health to back Speech therapists performance in school, based on educators' investigation on conceptions about the written language development process. METHOD: descriptive study performed through application of questionnaires in nineteen elementary school teachers in three public schools in a city in the State of Parana. The questionnaires contained questions on the development of written language, factors that favor and/or hinder this process. Data analysis was carried out through transcription of discursive replies and quantification of multiple-choice answers. From the content submitted in the replies, it was possible to create subject areas to be discussed. RESULTS: seven reports (35%) showing that the development process of written language starts at school were recorded; contact with writing was quoted twelve times (30%) as support for the development of written language; individual aspects were reported sixteen times (38%) as causes for learning difficulties; and there were twelve reports (39%) on forwarding to other professionals as a solution for such difficulties. CONCLUSION: educators have lack of fundamental knowledge for their educational practice regarding the literacy process, although most have training being consistent with what is advocated by LDB. It is not possible to generalize this conclusion, due to the small sized study sample.

Relação entre potenciais evocados auditivos de média latência e distúrbio de processamento auditivo: estudo de casos

The Auditory Evoked Middle Latency Response is one of the most promising objective tests in audiology and in revealing brain dysfunction and neuro-audiologic findings. The main advantages of its clinical use are precision and objectivity in evaluating children. This study aimed to analyze the auditory evoked middle latency response in two patients with auditory processing disorder and relate objective and behavioral measures. This case study was conducted in 2 patients (P1 = 12 years, female, P2 = 17 years old, male), both with the absence of sensory abnormalities, neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Both were submitted to anamnesis, inspection of the external ear canal, hearing test and evaluation of Auditory Evoked Middle latency Response. There was a significant association between behavioral test and objectives results. In the interview, there were complaints about the difficulty in listening in a noisy environment, sound localization, inattention, and phonological changes in writing and speaking, as confirmed by evaluation of auditory processing and Auditory Evoked Middle Latency Response. Changes were observed in the right decoding process hearing in both cases on the behavioral assessment of auditory processing; auditory evoked potential test middle latency shows that the right contralateral via response was deficient, confirming the difficulties of the patients in the assignment of meaning in acoustic information in a competitive sound condition at right, in both cases. In these cases it was shown the association between the results, but there is a need for further studies with larger sample population to confirm the data.

A aventura da escrita. A produção do diário como instrumento didático pedagógico ou de como as crianças escrevem e tecem considerações sobre o ato de escrever

The diary - considered here as a writing instrument that allows reflection of who reads and who writes - was chosen as a didactc and pedagogical, to follow the trajectory of the writing of the research subjects, which are 30 children, two groups of participants school support, offered by the ONG Núcleo Artevida, and have between 06 and 14 years of age. These children are also attending meetings of the municipal schools of the city of Rio Claro-SP, and in general, have difficulties especially in activities involving the practices of reading and writing. By the writing of the diaries, pretend to, beyond to follow the trajectory of the writing of these children, attend to theirs writing production – on the diaries - attending to what they say about the act of writing. The open pages of each book are invitations to readings, to possible readings. These readings indicate possible dialogical relations and dialogues, and indicated widespread practice of writing. Note that the written diaries is diferente of the school writing, because it doesn't carry the obligation of school tasks, and doesn't require forms, rules and pre-set styles.

Experiência, imaginação e invenção: chaves para um estudo da leitura e escrita entre pessoas pouco escolarizadas

Pensando na importância do contato com o livro e com a leitura, bem como da difusão deste contato, o estudo propõe como objetivo geral, buscar compreender e apontar alguns elementos de como se dão os processos de leitura e como esses podem contribuir para o conhecimento de si e do mundo em que se vive, entre pessoas leitoras e/ou pouco escolarizadas. Para criar esse espaço de leitura, a obra de Lewis Carrol, Alice no País das Maravilhas foi escolhida como material por oferecer amplas possibilidades de leitura, desafiando ao entendimento e proporcionando a busca do leitor pela identificação com as (des)venturas vivenciadas pela protagonista. O compartilhar da leitura foi proposto e desenvolvido junto a alunos e alunas de uma sala de Educação de Jovens e Adultos em uma escola do município de Rio Claro/SP. O estudo é organizado em três momentos de leituras: o primeiro momento apresenta as primeiras leituras realizadas, onde busco entender o lugar e o papel da leitura na formação, situandome como leitora de Alice no País das Maravilhas, e entrelaçando os caminhos de Alice por esse mundo com os caminhos que percorremos como leitores. O segundo configura-se como uma pesquisa documental que objetiva conhecer mais profundamente o livro em pauta e as versões a que, como leitores, temos acesso, propondo levantar diferentes edições disponibilizadas no Brasil. O terceiro momento encaminha-se para as (re)leituras, onde apresento os registros referentes à pesquisa de campo, dos meus caminhos para compartilhar a leitura de Alice..., e das leituras compartilhadas. A proposta de estudo apoia-se, conceitualmente, nas noções de leitura e escrita como práticas culturais, sendo o livro assumido como um objeto cultural; a questão da leitura e escrita posta para pessoas pouco ou nada escolarizadas situa-se em uma perspectiva de interlocução com a cultura escolar e com a cultura cotidiana; e o que concerne às (des)venturas com Alice...

Revisitando a dicotomia fala/escrita

This work has by main objective revisit the dichotomy speech/writing from the perspective of scholars in the field of linguistics in relation to the communicative and interactional aspects of language. The research is based on the study of traditional dichotomies that classically distinguish between the oral form and the written form of the language. It is noted here the importance of the study of communication and interaction of individuals, as language being the main aspect responsible for the organization of society, and, of course, also being indispensable for the development of human being. This study shows that the distinctive peculiarities between speech and writing are not of the characteristics of a particular procedure, but differences that are necessary due to the specific moment of creation of an utterance or text, because both the oral and the mode writing may have traces of formality/informality; completeness/incompleteness, among other things. In other words, there is not a distinctive feature that is present only in speech or writing. Thus, this research shows that, by the numberless technological advances, the communication between people has gone through changes and crossed barriers. Therefore, it is clear that with the collaboration of the media, the old dichotomies recommended for speech and writing are being overcome and can no longer be treated strictly to any of the modalities

Dificuldades e/ou problemas de aprendizagem: concepções e práticas docentes

It is known that some children fail to learn in school and among them are those that present difficulties and / or learning problems. At this difficulty and / or problems are attributed to various causes neurological problems, environmental or both. The areas most likely to be affected are: reading, writing and mathematics. This situation happens frequently in the daily life of schools and teachers should be prepared to work with diversity and enable the development of all, this includes having this particular part of the school population has a significant learning and an appropriate social relationship. It is therefore aim of this study, to investigate the conceptions of teachers in relation to the theme and possible practices of those in public elementary schools in Bauru city, a medium-sized city in the state of Sao Paulo, with those children who can not learn. Because it is a fact that often occurs in schools, it is necessary to investigate how teachers are working with these students since the school should ensure quality education for all and pedagogical efficiency. To obtain the data we used a questionnaire with multiple choice and essay questions, this tool was applied to a municipal school. It was noted that there is confusion between the terms learning difficulties and problems which affect the performance of teachers with these students and the working conditions of educators hinder their practices

Uma arma docente: escrita como reflexão, empoderamento e mudança

O presente trabalho problematiza de que forma a escrita sobre a prática pedagógica pode contribuir para a promoção do empoderamento do professor. Para isto, desenvolvo uma pesquisa documental (LÜDKE; ANDRÉ, 1986), a partir das escritas de um grupo de professores, denominadas “Pipocas Pedagógicas”, crônicas em que são relatados acontecimentos de sua vida escolar, como profissionais e também como alunos. Estes professores são participantes do “Grupo de Terça” vinculado ao Grupo de Estudos e Pesquisa em Educação Continuada (GEPEC), ligado ao Programa de Pós Graduação da Faculdade de Educação da UNICAMP. A pesquisa, foi subsidiada por entrevistas com dois destes professores escritores, para melhor compreender como se desenvolve essa prática. A partir da análise deste material, o estudo perpassa sobre a importância da reflexão sobre a prática pedagógica, como forma de pesquisá-la. Estas temáticas foram necessárias para aprofundar o conceito de empoderamento, e poder pensá-lo dentro da realidade educacional, uma vez que a reflexão articulada ao conhecimento são fatores que podem levar ao empoderamento. Em função disso, realizei uma pesquisa bibliográfica, buscando o conceito de empoderamento em duas bases teóricas: SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) e Anais da ANPEd (Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação), nos quais analisarei os artigos referentes aos Grupos de Trabalho: GT03 – Movimentos Sociais, Sujeitos e Processos Educativos; GT06 – Educação Popular; GT08 – Formação de Professores; GT18 – Educação de Pessoas Jovens e Adultas, fazendo um recorte entre os anos de 2000 a 2011. Desta forma, pretendo contribuir com reflexões que possibilitem (re)pensar formas de se chegar ao empoderamento docente e a consequência disto nos modos de se enxergar à educação

Percepções de uma pesquisadora aprendiz em busca da compreensão da escrita significativa na EJA

O estudo aqui apresentado integra o Projeto de Educação de Jovens e Adultos: práticas e desafios (PEJA), que é um projeto de extensão desenvolvido na Unesp – Rio Claro, com uma das turmas - a turma da Comunidade - que é composta, na maioria, por mulheres. Sendo a multisseriação uma característica desta turma, fazse necessário um trabalho diferenciado dos que ocorrem em escolas que tem Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) “regular”. Tendo como foco a escrita significativa e sua prática, o estudo objetivou buscar compreendê-las na visão dessas mulheres, que estão imersas na sociedade letrada. Por meio do trabalho desenvolvido nos encontros, a cada aula, com diversos tipos de textos, principalmente poemas, procurei considerar o ponto de vista das educandas, tomando como aporte metodológico o relato de alguns aspectos de suas histórias de vida; ao mesmo tempo, tais relatos eram considerados em suas possibilidades criativas para a aprendizagem e uma aproximação do que poderia ser uma escrita significativa, para as próprias mulheres. Entre os estudos teóricos que deram sustentação à pesquisa, estão escritos de Jorge Larrosa e Paulo Freire, considerando, também, outros autores. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de cunho qualitativo e teve como sujeitos participantes, educandas e educadores e a pesquisadora, aprendiz. Para desenvolver a pesquisa utilizei-me de elementos da história oral como recurso teórico-metodológico. Compõem o material de análise as produções escritas das educandas e os registros em diário de campo das atividades realizadas e observações pela pesquisadora. Como objeto de reflexão destaco dois conjuntos de atividades que nomeei de Projeto Poemas e Projeto Palavras Verdes, os quais sustentaram este trabalho. O estudo realizado traz argumentos que podem contribuir para a educação de jovens e adultos... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Oralidade e eventos de letramento relacionados à leitura: práticas sociais constitutivas da escrita

This research is the result of a senior research project and longed to verify if the ways of child‘s participation in orality in classroom and the literacy events related to reading would make possible to child construct a discursive relation with the writing. Besides it investigated the conception of 20 teachers from second year from primary school about orality and literacy and also identifies which theory purposes could be discerned in one of these teachers exercise. The methodology used was the qualitative approach, with exploratory- descriptive character, and based in system of references methodological of bibliographic research and collecting of facts research. The corpus of this research constituted in deflagrate element that stimulated the search for methodology answers which could clear the possible essence of set of problems evidenced. The results indicated that the ignorance of some basic conceptions that imbricate in teaching Portuguese language, principally in orality development, reading of writing by some individuals was alarming component parts, since many of them mediate the teachinglearning process of numberless individuals. Considering that orality and literacy play fundamental function in social interactions, this research has the intention to contribute for teacher‘s continuous formation, just as help them in development of students‘ linguistic competences, and elucidate them about the importance of literacy, besides to make public the more recently theoretical subsidies about this subject

Ditado - Um estudo sobre a evolução da escrita de crianças de um segundo ano do ensino fundamental

Esta pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa busca informações em diferentes tipos de materiais que não receberam, ainda, nenhum trato científico (OLIVEIRA, 2007), como é o caso específico dos ditados dos alunos. Originou-se no Projeto Bolsa Escola Pública e Universidade na Alfabetização, criado pela Secretária da Educação do Estado de São Paulo, do qual participei como aluna-pesquisadora no ano de 2009. O objetivo principal foi o de averiguar se houve evolução da escrita, em ditados de 23 crianças de um segundo ano do ensino fundamental e, quando houve, se ela foi diferente entre os grupos de palavras constituídas de sílabas simples e complexas. Os ditados analisados constituíam-se de palavras e, em algumas ocasiões, também de frases e foram aplicados pela professora da sala em cinco períodos diferentes do ano letivo: março, abril e junho – primeiro semestre; setembro e novembro – segundo semestre. Os alunos apresentaram diferentes níveis de construção de aprendizagem da escrita entre si e, para caracterizá-los, durante a sua evolução, utilizei os níveis de evolução da escrita de Ferreiro e Teberosky (1999). A pesquisa apresenta relevância, não só ao questionar o uso, ainda hoje, do ditado em sala de aula, como uma prática para avaliar a evolução da escrita da criança, no início do processo de alfabetização, ou como uma prática mecânica, utilizada pelos educadores por ser um tanto cômodo, mas também, ao estabelecer, pelo trabalho do aluno-pesquisador, a relação entre a teoria e a prática, resultando em uma visão mais abrangente da sala de aula, do cotidiano escolar e do processo de alfabetização. Os resultados mostraram que o ditado pode ser utilizado em sala de aula pela professora como um meio para analisar... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

A leitura na perspectiva de Bakhtin e suas possibilidades na formação do leitor: na educação infantil e no primeiro ano do ensino fundamental

Overall, in Brazilian schools, the concept of reading does not take into account its possibilities and its meaning for life. But read is assigning meaning to something , make sense, interact with the text read. Thus, the present study addresses the mechanical reading, that without contextualization, performed on a technique by joining letters and syllables loose and also reading social use, consisting of statements, dialogism , polyphony and heteroglossy. It is known that the mechanical reading brings undesirable consequences, including learning problems, such as lack of attention, concentration, memory, imagination. When the reading is taught in a systematic way, with only the goal of the code decoding of written language, destroys social perspectives and intellectual development. It is common, when you offer the children a book, there the difficult disinterest of textual interpretation, because there is no attribute meaning to the content, and even the ability to interact with the text. With the interest in studying the dialogic reading this and the statements and genres, the present study was based on several authors: Bakhtin (1988, 2000), Schneuwly and Dolz (2000), Faraco (2009) and Ponzio (2009) Jolibert (1994), Bajard (2002; 2007) Foucambert (1997) Martins ( 1985) and Smith ( 1999). Aim for this study the following research question: what are the contributions of Mikhail Bakhtin's theory to the teaching of reading from kindergarten through the first grade of elementary school? Our hypothesis is that if they are guaranteed to pre -school and elementary school beginners diversified materials and new approaches in teaching reading and encouragement to her, will be developed in children a taste for the act of reading, so that they can assign meaning and significance, making reading part of their lives...

Inclusão escolar de um aluno com autismo: descrevendo práticas de alfabetização em uma escola pública - ciclo I

Learning the written language has been the subject of research and study of various sciences in recent decades, in the same way that inclusion in regular education of students with disabilities such as autism, also has been the subject of discussions in the academic and even political. However, it can be observed that these two topics are disjointed, despite the importance of ownership of the system of writing by students with autism, because that would be a way to facilitate social interaction, which is the principal difficulty of this students. This research intend to describe the inclusion process of a student with autism into a common room of the initial years, in a public school, observing which are the strategies used by the teacher in the literacy process, as well as analyze the collaborative process developed by the researcher. The methodology was a qualitative and collaborative research, the kind of case study. The participants were a teacher and her students, from the cycle I of Primary School of a public school, among which, one is diagnosed with autism. The instruments used to the data’s analysis were interviews, with the teacher and the mother of the student with autism; the written productions of the student during the research; camp diary; and the observations made during the research. To the interventions, were used alternative practices, including material production (a mobile alphabet and a album of photos), that make more easy the process of literacy, The results showed the great difficulty in performing the interventions in a collaborative process, considering that in the observations, it was found that the practices of this teacher were traditional, and also there was no planning, on her part, content to be deal with the students. Otherwise, related to the development of the autism student’s written language, it could be seen like a breakthrough, have in...
