Educação social e relação de ajuda: Representações dos educadores sociais sbre as suas práticas

Neste estudo, parte-se dos discursos dos educadores sociais, produzidos no grupo de discussão, para se conhecer as suas representações face à relação de ajuda que desenvolvem com as populações. Problematizou-se o conceito, analisaram-se os discursos buscando os paradigmas que orientam as intervenções, as definições de relação de ajuda, os seus objectivos, e o perfil dos educadores sociais que desenvolvem esta modalidade de intervenção. As conclusões apontam para a necessidade de a reflexão acompanhar a acção do educador social; para a coexistência de diferentes concepções sobre a relação de ajuda, variando de acordo com as orientações paradigmáticas do educador, a sua própria experiência profissional, o eu perfil pessoal e profissional. Surge reforçada a ideia de que é na relação teoria-prática que se vão configurando as práticas de intervenção, adequando-as aos sujeitos com quem se desenvolvem e activando processos internos, ao nível das capacidades e competências, pessoais e interpessoais, dos educadores sociais. /ABSTRACT: The starting point in this study is the social educators' speeches produced in the discussion group, to let us know how they view the helping relationship they develop with the populations. The concept was held as a problem needing clarification, and the speeches were analysed with a view to making understandable the paradigms, the objectives and the definitions of the helping relationship that guide their interventions; the profiles of the professionals in the group that develop this modality of intervention were also analysed. The conclusions point to the need of reflection going along with the social educator's acting. They also point to the presence in the group of different conceptions of the helping relationship, varying with the educator's paradigmatic orientation, her/his own professional experience, her/his personal and professional profile. One strong idea emerges: the intervention practices get their configuration in the relation theory-practice, in the process of making them adequate to the subjects with whom they are developed, and also because they activate the social educators' internal processes, at the level of capacities and competences, both personal and interpersonal.

Communication and health beliefs - Mass and interpersonal influences on perceptions of risk to self and others

This study investigated the impact of media coverage of a health issue (skin cancer) on judgements of risk to self and others and the role of related communication processes. Consistent with predictions derived from the impersonal impact hypothesis, the effects of mass communication were more evident in perceptions of risk to others rather than in perceptions of personal risk. Perceptions of personal risk were more strongly correlated with interpersonal communication. However, as suggested by media system dependency theory, the relationship between mass communication and beliefs was complex. The impact of mass communication on both personal and impersonal perceptions was bound to be moderated by self-reported dependence on mass mediated information. The effect of this two-way interaction 071 perceptions of personal risk was partially mediated through interpersonal communication. Results point to the interdependence of mass and interpersonal communication as sources of social influence and the role of media dependency in shaping media impact.

Theoretical Underpinnings of Community-based Sentences and Custody for Young Offenders in Hong Kong

Much has been written about youth crime, justice and corrections in Hong Kong in the past three decades, in particular, about the historical roots of the youth justice system, causes of juvenile delinquency, and the outcomes of different rehabilitative programmes for young offenders. However, little is known in theory, practice and policy about how community-based and custodial sentences can achieve the goals of rehabilitation and correction for young offenders. In this paper, the author analyses the purposes of penal measures with reference to the classical theories of punishment, rather than empirical data or statistics. The author argues that a community-based sentence, in many respects, performs as or more effectively than a custodial programme in achieving the various sentencing aims.

Currículo-fabulação : a curiosa metamorfose de Francis Tracart

Tem por proposta subversar a escrita linear acadêmica ao (re)fazê-la, vislumbrando as potências e transgressões da literatura menor em seus agenciamentos coletivos, políticos, em seus gaguejos e balbucios, em suas possibilidades de subversão. Fabular a escrita acadêmica e o currículo como ato político e coletivo, como reinvenção da própria língua. Trata da metamorfose de Francis Tracart em sua busca por traçar conceitos,conversações, percepções e afecções. A metodologia se dá por intermédio da pesquisa com os cotidianos e com a cartografia, buscando atentar-se a vozes, entrelinhas, efeitos, tensões, teórico-práticas e saberesfazeres dos sujeitos praticantes dos cotidianos da escola em que se realiza a pesquisa em pé de igualdade com os autores dos livros que permearam o processo de realização do trabalho de pesquisa. Os sujeitos cotidianos, tais como bibliotecária, professoras e alunos de 5º e 6º Ano, orientador, professores e alunos de Pós- Graduação, que participaram do processo de pesquisa, bem como os autores dos livros lidos, se fazem presentes nas vozes, nas falas, nos afectos e nas conversações com leituras, literaturas, currículos, cotidianos, redes de afecções, elementos éticos, estéticos e políticos, espaçostempos, com linhas de fuga, linhas molares e linhas moleculares, com os presentes politemporais,devires, conceitos, metamorfoses, com possíveis e improváveis leituras, fugas e reinvenções do leitor.

Fundamentos didatológicos para a construção de unidades curriculares integradas

Neste trabalho, com base na análise de diferentes formas de conceber e entender a integração didática na perspetiva curricular portuguesa e da consideração do trinómio didático - globalização da aprendizagem / motivação / ensino e aprendizagem integrados nos primeiros anos de escolaridade –, propomos, do ponto de vista científico - didático, uma reflexão sobre os princípios e fundamentos da sequenciação didática e da construção de unidades didáticas integradoras, com o objetivo de dar contributos significativos para que, desde a formação de professores, se possam criar bases teórico-práticas de definição de percursos de ensino e aprendizagem com potencial efetivo de integração nas dimensões epistemológica e curricular.

Influência do modelo de governação das administrações portuárias no seu desempenho

Mestrado em Auditoria

Ciência, Cultura, Teorias, Práticas, Objetos, Sentidos, Valores

Este artigo reflete, e corporiza ele mesmo, uma intersecção: entre ciência e cultura; entre experiência, experimentação, sentidos, sentido e significado; entre a pluralidade de argumentos sustentadores da expressão motriz e matriz ‘culturas experimentais’. Sustentando a necessidade de se transcender uma abordagem essencialista de ‘cultura’ ede transgredir delimitações dos conceitos ‘experiência’ e ‘experimentação’, os autores recorrem à ideia de ‘paisagem’ para designar a quebra dos dualismos teoria-prática e ação-pensamento. Isto dita o repensar das fronteiras entre linguagens disciplinares, em direção a uma ‘ecologia conceptual’que contribua para perspetivas mais amplas e integradoras dos campos educativo, profissional e científico-artístico-cultural.

Adaptação no método do peso da gota para determinação da tensão superficial: um método simplificado para a quantificação da CMC de surfactantes no ensino da química

The discussion based on surfactant cleaning action is commonly used in chemistry classrooms for the comprehension of theoretical concepts related to surface tension and micelle formation. The experimental quantification of surface tension of aqueous solutions of surfactants provides the practical instruments for this discussion. The present paper describes a simplification on the common apparatus employed for the drop-weight method, making the determination of surface tension accessible to any chemistry lab. The surface tension of various liquids and the critical micelle concentration, CMC, of three commercial surfactants were measured with this modified method, and proved to be consistent with literature values.

CASOS INVESTIGATIVOS E A RELAÇÃO COM O SABER: TRAJETÓRIA E PROCESSO DE APRENDIZAGEM DE ESTUDANTES DO ENSINO SUPERIOR NO TOCANTINS

In light of the theory of relationship with know of Bernard Charlot, aiming to understand the unique stories of the subject through a positive lecture, i.e., understanding the reality and the way the subjects read and interpret the world, this article attempts identify how higher education students solve an investigative case and learn the scientific knowledge using this theory. For this, we used narrative as a discourse genre to collect the data of 34 students who participated in the small group activities. After content analysis, the results showed that all groups of students solve the case in a similar way and in three stages, prevailing relations with know with the world, with others and with yourself. However, even if the resolution is similar, chemical learning differs between different groups and differs between the scientific content present in the case. From these results it is possible to identify the effectiveness of learning depends on the epistemic and identity relationships with know of each subject (relationship with yourself) because to learn the student must enter into an intellectual activity (investigative case), stay on it and develop the relationships with known necessary to master the normativity (chemical language).

Wellness and balance: perceptions amongst female health care professionals negotiating career, family, and continuing education /

The purpose ofthis study was to explore the perceptions of wellness and bidance amongst female health care professionals negotiating career, family aiul continuing education commitments. Five women who met the criteria of having a family (with children), holding a full-time professional career in health care, and who were presently pursuing continuing education were interviewed. This paper begins with the introduction to the topic of research and the questions to be answered. The review of literature explores the theory and research A^ch precede this study and addresses the surrounding areas of: wellness, balance, multiple roles, stress and continuing education. < This study has assumed a qualitative, phenomenological approach. The data collected through the use of individual interviews were analyzed using a two-part process. Analysis using both (a) methodological interpretation and (b) The Listening Guide method has allowed for the uncovering of major themes, and the portrayal of each participant's unique experience. Some of the major themes which emerged from this research include: wellness as multidimensional and fluctuating, making personal sacrifices, the presence of stress, professional as a vital role, and continuing education as something for me. Perhaps the most significant finding this research has identified is the positive role continuing education can hold in the lives of women already negotiating multiple commitments. The notion that continuing education can act as a means of enhancing perceptions of wellness and balance holds a number of implications in theory, practice, and for future research.
