Política de formação de professores: variação do locus de formação e a experiência do CEFET-RN

The present article discusses the directives of the policies of the initial teachers’ formation introduced in Brazil in the 1990’s. These directives have brought new directions and demands, both to the formation institutions and to teachers’ formation. This work analyzes the enlargement and the variation of the formation locus, a topic criticized by the teaching educators for enabling different and flexible models which have taken to a more technical and instrumental formation to the detriment of a theoretical and practical solid formation. In a general way, the study reveals that the CEFET’s use as a space of teachers’ formation has given priority to the quantitative aspects, the optimization of the resources and the instrumentation of the educators’ formation, even though under the speech of the quality of the educational process. Differently, the operationalization of this policy at CEFET-RN has favored a formative model, which has joined research, extension and teaching, guaranteeing the specificity of a solid formation, as well as the articulation between theory and practice and the sense of investigation, necessary characteristics to the formation of a devoted educator with the quality of public education.

Núcleos de acessibilidade e o atendimento a alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais nas universidades federais do nordeste brasileiro

In the current context of policies for inclusiveness in the Brazilian higher education, the accessibility centers are responsible for the organization of actions toward the fulfillment of the legal requirements regarding accessibility and the elimination of barriers that interfere with the participation and learning of persons with special learning needs (SLN), providing conditions for the full inclusion of these students in the activities of learning, research and community outreach in this learning level. This research had the goal to analyse the work developed by the accessibility centers in the federal universities in the northeastern region of Brazil towards the care of students with SLN. It is a descriptive work, with quantitative and qualitative approaches. Twelve federal universities participated through their accessibility center’s coordinators. The data - gathered by means of an electronic survey filled out in 2014 - was organized and analyzed through descriptive statistics and content analysis; their discussion was made around four topics: organization of accessibility centers for the care of students with SLN, kinds and numbers of students with SLN cared for, actions developed, and suggestions for the improvement of the accessibility centers. It was found that in the sphere of the researched universities, the accessibility centers have been taking actions involving many parts of the academic community towards the improvement of the conditions and permanence of students with SLN. However, in some institutional realities, these action need to be expanded and/or consolidated. The coordinators suggest further actions towards the betterment of these centers, regarding expansion of financial and human resources, professional qualification, awareness of the academic community, institutionalization and the formation of a collaborative network among the accessibility centers. Thus, although there are still challenges to overcome, the presence of the accessibility centers is shown to advance the realization of policies for the inclusion of students with SLN in the post-secondary education, towards the democratization of learning starting from the universal right to education.

Programa de licenciatura internacional na Universidade Federal de Uberlândia : limites e possibilidades

This research is the result of research at the level of Master of the Graduate Program in Education of the Federal University of Uberlândia – PPGED/UFU, inserted in the line of research "State Policy and Management in Education." Its object of study International Degree Programme – PLI established officially in 2010, the Higher Education Personnel Improvement Coordination – Capes, in particular the PLI at UFU. The overall objective is to describe and analyze the implications, while limits and possibilities of its implementation in UFU in the 2010-2012 period, from the context of the internationalization of higher education and educational policies in this area. They were used as data collection instruments, bibliographical, documentary research and semi-structured interview applied to the former rector of the UFU, managers, engineers, teachers and students participating in the PLI/UFU 2010-2012. For the data analysis, the theoretical and political aspects influencing policies for teacher training, as well as the legal PLI documents were considered. As a result, on the one hand, it was found that the PLI, in the context of UFU, gives opportunity to the participants the possibility of holding courses abroad, contributes to their personal and cultural background. On the other hand, the PLI would not be, in fact, academically contributing to improve vocational training as its main objective, but rather, for what happened in Portugal over the three issues considered, it would have contributed to reaffirm, among the students, political will to not act as teachers in the context of basic education.

O processo de subjetivação profissional durante os estágios supervisionados em psicologia

Internship is legally understood in Brazil as an overseen educational activity to be developed in a work setting aiming to prepare students to make productive work. According to the federal law number 11.788/08, its main aim is to provide students with competences directly related to the professional activity in a curricular context and to make students develop themselves to live as citizens and to work professionally. With a focus on the professionalizing internship, this research aimed at understanding the professional subjectiveness process of Psychology undergraduates at a public university in the state Minas Gerais during their internship and according to a critic perspective in schooling psychology. The importance of studying psychologist academic training above all the relationship between theory and practice is on the fact that the internship is his/her initial contact with the professional experience itself after four years of theoretical studies. Understood as a way of appropriating and internalizing theoretical and practical dimensions related to the psychologist profession and constructed by the individual, the concept of professional subjectiveness is viewed in the light of the cultural-historical theory, that is, as a result of the human being social constitution. Three Psychology s intern students and their respective overseers were interviewed during their internship period to talk about the process of professional constitution at this phase of the academic training. To do so, oral history proved to be an important methodological support, for it offers a means of giving voice to common people and letting them signify their multi-circumstantial experiences. Results reiterate the presence of subjectivity in the dynamics of an undergraduate training, but they showed that it is permeated by social relations established in his/her personal life story and professional trajectory, stemming from the professional choice, the relationship between intern and overseer, the professional activity properly considered, the psychotherapy, the rules, and from the institutionalization of knowledge, among others aspects that guide the professional subjectiveness during the internship. We verified that the training of a Psychology undergraduate includes multiple determinations that exceed the academic setting because it points out the breaking down of the professional dimensions and personal one dichotomy.

Formação inicial do professor de matemática com uso de tecnologias da informação e comunicação no contexto da escola pública

This paper intends to analyze which contribution for teachers formative training the participation on extension projects can bring to the bachelors in Mathematics teaching. The research was conducted during the developing of a Project from the Program of Extension - Programa de Extensão UFU/Comunidade (PEIC) in a municipal school located in a country zone from Uberlândia-MG. The research was constituted by a series of activities with students from the ninth year of the Fundamental Education, Middle School. The main focus is the work developed by two bachelors of Mathemactics teaching from the Federal University from Uberlândia who were part of the PEIC team. This present research intends to answer the following question: How the extension project “Information technology and communication on Mathematics problem resolution in country zone schools” has contribited to reinforce and to (re)criate the fomative experiences of students from the Mathematics teaching course who have developed such project? The presente study is from a qualitative nature and has made use of the partaker searching methodology. The presente paper was organized in three chapters. On chapter I evidence is given to theoretical discussion made, having as main references the works of Larrosa, Ponte e Shön. Chapter II brings the description of the three activities that were developed and aplied during the PEIC Project, which are: Problems in the Park, Inaccessible Hight and Lili Game. On chapter III, the data analysis is presented. The data was obtained through instruments of registration such as: camera recording, photografic material, meetings reports, field notes, surveys and semi-structured interviews. The initial hypothesis aim is on the fact that the participation on extention projects during the graduation course can bring rich contribution for the teachers to be, since it’s going to provide the knowledge and chalenge close to the one from the future profession. With the analysis of the obtained results from the colected data, it was possible to conclude that the PEIC has provided the bachelors in Mathematics teching the opportunity of recreate and potenciate their formative experiences. Such opportunity happened in situations that involved, for example, planning makings, development of colective work, softwares usage, different school spaces and the direct interaction with school bureaucracy. Beyond that, it was possible to work with the cocepts of reflection in action in a way to contribute to the professional development of the future Mathematics teachers. Thereby, in our final considerations, is possible to conclude that extension projects performed during the graduation course can bring great contributions to the professional formation of the bachelors in Mathematics teaching, among them we highlight the potentiation of the previous formative experiences and the development of colective work and behavior related to a reflexive teacher.

Resiliência, Coping e Autocompaixão em Cuidadores Formais da Rede Nacional de Cuidados Continuados Integrados

Introdução: Na literatura internacional e nacional verifica-se a inexistência de estudos sobre os correlatos psicológicos de cuidadores formais, como a resiliência e o coping. Apesar de se reconhecer a importância de uma prestação de cuidados mais compassivos e humanizados, mais uma vez, não existem estudos nesta área. Este facto estende-se aos cuidadores formais que trabalham com pessoas em situação de dependência, na Rede Nacional de Cuidados Continuados Integrados. Assim, foram nossos objetivos: caraterizar os cuidadores formais de algumas Unidades de Cuidados Continuados (UCC) da RNCCI em variáveis sociodemográficas e profissionais; analisar os seus níveis de resiliência, coping e autocompaixão; verificar se existem associações significativas entre estas variáveis e com as variáveis sociodemográficas e profissionais. Metodologia: 78 cuidadores formais (sexo feminino, n = 76; 97,4%), com uma média de idades de 35,45 anos (DP = 9,0) forneceram o seu consentimento informado para preencherem um questionário sociodemográfico e profissional, a Escala de Avaliação Global da Resiliência, o Brief COPE e a Self Compassion Scale (SELFCS). Resultados: Os cuidadores revelaram um nível médio de resiliência (total). A dimensão de coping com média mais elevada foi o Coping ativo e a com média mais baixa foi o Uso de substâncias. Na SELFCS a dimensão com média mais elevada foi o Calor/compreensão e a com média mais baixa foi o Isolamento. No geral, a pontuação total de resiliência correlacionou-se de forma positiva com as dimensões positivas da autocompaixão (SELFCS) e de forma negativa com as dimensões negativas desta escala. As dimensões mais positivas de coping correlacionaram-se de forma positiva com as dimensões positivas de autocompaixão e as mais negativas de coping com as dimensões negativas de autocompaixão. Quanto maior a idade dos cuidadores menor o nível de Suporte Emocional e maior o nível de Religião e Mindfulness. Mais horas de trabalho associaram-se a menor resiliência e a maior nível de Suporte Emocional Discussão: Este estudo revelou, ainda que numa amostra reduzida, que os cuidadores formais das UCC parecem revelar níveis equilibrados em correlatos psicológicos importantes quando se “cuida” de outra pessoa. Porém, as UCC devem preocupar-se em fomentar, junto dos cuidadores, níveis mais elevados de resiliência, estratégias mais positivas de coping e a compaixão auto e hétero dirigida, para assegurar um “cuidar” mais pleno quer para os profissionais, quer para aqueles que são cuidados. / Introduction: In the international and national literature, we verified the inexistence of studies about psychological correlates of formal caregivers, such as resilience and coping. Although the importance of more humanized and compassive care is recognized, again, there are no studies in this area. This is also verified regarding formal caregivers that work with people in a dependence situation, as in the National Network of Continuous Care. Our aims were to characterize the formal caregivers from some units of the National Network of Continuous Care in sociodemographic and professional variables; analyze these professionals levels of resilience, coping and self-compassion; verify if there are significant associations between these variables and with the sociodemographic and professional variables. Methodology: 78 formal caregivers (female, n = 76; 97,4%), with an mean age of 35,45 years (SD = 9,0) provided their informed consent to fill in a professional and sociodemographic questionnaire, the Global Resiliency Evaluation Scale, the Brief COPE and the Self Compassion Scale (SELFCS). Results: The caregivers showed a medium level of resilience. The coping dimension with the highest mean was Active coping and the dimension with the lowest mean was Substance Use. Regarding SELFCS the dimension with the highest mean was Warmth, contrasting with Isolation, the dimension with the lowest mean. Overall, the total score of resilience was positively correlated with self-compassion positive dimensions (SELFCS) and negatively correlated with the negative dimensions of this scale. The most positive dimensions of coping were positively correlated with the positive dimensions of self-compassion and the most negative dimensions of coping were correlated with the negative dimensions of self-compassion. Older caregivers showed lower use of Emotional support and higher level of Religion and Mindfulness use. More daily hours of work were associated with less resilience and higher Emotional Support. Discussion: This study revealed, although in a small sample, that Continuous Care Units (CCU) formal caregivers seem to have balanced levels of psychological correlates that are important while caring for others. However, the CCU should promote, in the caregivers higher levels of resilience, coping and self-compassion, to ensure a better care, simultaneously the professionals and patients.

Modos projetuais de simulação: uso de ferramentas de simulação térmica no processo projetual de arquitetura

This thesis aims to describe and demonstrate the developed concept to facilitate the use of thermal simulation tools during the building design process. Despite the impact of architectural elements on the performance of buildings, some influential decisions are frequently based solely on qualitative information. Even though such design support is adequate for most decisions, the designer will eventually have doubts concerning the performance of some design decisions. These situations will require some kind of additional knowledge to be properly approached. The concept of designerly ways of simulating focuses on the formulation and solution of design dilemmas, which are doubts about the design that cannot be fully understood nor solved without using quantitative information. The concept intends to combine the power of analysis from computer simulation tools with the capacity of synthesis from architects. Three types of simulation tools are considered: solar analysis, thermal/energy simulation and CFD. Design dilemmas are formulated and framed according to the architect s reflection process about performance aspects. Throughout the thesis, the problem is investigated in three fields: professional, technical and theoretical fields. This approach on distinct parts of the problem aimed to i) characterize different professional categories with regards to their design practice and use of tools, ii) investigate preceding researchers on the use of simulation tools and iii) draw analogies between the proposed concept, and some concepts developed or described in previous works about design theory. The proposed concept was tested in eight design dilemmas extracted from three case studies in the Netherlands. The three investigated processes are houses designed by Dutch architectural firms. Relevant information and criteria from each case study were obtained through interviews and conversations with the involved architects. The practical application, despite its success in the research context, allowed the identification of some applicability limitations of the concept, concerning the architects need to have technical knowledge and the actual evolution stage of simulation tools

Relatório EPE - Relatório de estágio em Educação Pré-Escolar: O presente relatório tem como objetivo apresentar o trabalho desenvolvido pela estagiária durante toda a sua prática pedagógica supervisionada, assim como demonstrar a aquisição de competências profissionais ao longo deste período. Esta aquisição de competências vai ao encontro do grande objetivo da prática pedagógica, uma vez que esta pretende que a estudante desenvolva múltiplas competências que a permita agir enquanto futura profissional de educação. O período de prática pedagógica da formanda realizou-se entre dia vinte de fevereiro e catorze de junho do presente ano na instituição Monfortinhos de Real, pertencente ao concelho da Maia, contando com um trabalho intensivo realizado em tríade (par pedagógico e educadora cooperante). Este trabalho permitiu uma reflexão conjunta de extrema importância para a transformação e melhoramento das ações da estagiária. Toda a prática desenvolvida pela formanda baseou-se numa metodologia de investigação-ação centrada em dois eixos fundamentais: ação e reflexão, passando também por uma metodologia de observação do contexto, uma planificação das ações e uma avaliação das mesmas. Posto isto, importa referir que da prática fizeram parte várias estratégias para a orientação da formanda, como é o caso dos guiões e grelhas de observação, das planificações semanais, das narrativas colaborativas mensais, da reunião de avaliação reguladora, da construção de um projeto curricular de grupo, bem como da elaboração de um diário de formação. A elaboração deste documento permitiu à estudante realizar uma reflexão introspetiva sobre as suas práticas ao longo do período de estágio, analisando as competências adquiridas, bem como aspetos a melhor em intervenções futuras.
