A aula de língua inglesa em uma escola pública de ensino médio : o retrato de um desserviço

O objetivo desta dissertação é investigar, descrever e interpretar como acontece o processo de ensino-aprendizagem de língua estrangeira (inglês) em escola pública de ensino médio que agrupa alunos de diferentes de níveis de conhecimento sistêmico, advindos do ensino fundamental, em uma mesma turma. O estudo é de cunho etnográfico, e segue uma abordagem qualitativa interpretativa, realizado com um grupo de alunos de 1ª série de uma escola pública de ensino médio. A pesquisa de campo foi realizada entre o período de abril a setembro de 2001 guiada pelos questionamentos básicos dessa forma de pesquisa: a) o que está acontecendo aqui? e b) como? Para obter subsídios para análise posterior e, conseqüentemente, respostas às questões norteadoras do trabalho, o estudo incorporou como suporte, momentos e procedimentos de microetnografia (ERICKSON, 1986, 1990) ou microanálise sociolingüística (GUMPERZ, 1982), fundamentando-se na importância da Sociolingüística Interacional como elemento enriquecedor e ampliador para modelar a relação professora / alunos e para compreender o discurso em sala de aula. Teoricamente, este trabalho de pesquisa partiu de fundamentações de pensadores e educadores como Vygotsky e Paulo Freire, entre outros, tendo como pano de fundo, teorias e metodologias de ensino de língua estrangeira como um todo e, especificamente, centradas no cenário educacional brasileiro. Igualmente, estudos sobre ensino formal e postulações de lingüístas como Lightbown e Spada (1995), Ellis (1993,1996), Nunan (1998), Richards e Lockhart (1994) e Thomas (1999). Pela análise dos dados, foi possível articular uma compreensão sobre a abordagem usada na sala de aula foco deste estudo, a qual pode ser entendida como Tradicional, fortalecendo a metodologia de Tradução e Gramática, em uma relação assimétrica entre professora e alunos, sem co-participação social, desconsiderando, pois, a intersubjetividade nas atividades e impedindo, assim, a negociação de significados, pelo discurso dialógico, bem como dificultando a construção do conhecimento em LI. Nessas condições, a definição do processo de ensino é a de educação bancária, caracterizada por Paulo Freire como educação de transmissão, de dominação e de cunho autoritário, diluído em um discurso monológico que resulta na desmotivação, no desinteresse dos alunos e na realização de outras atividades durante as aulas. Essas constatações, respaldadas pelos atores do cenário social investigado, através da triangulação de dados, permitem descrever a prática educativa como de não atendimento oportuno, pertinente ao nível dos alunos e não incidente na zona de desenvolvimento proximal, pontuada por Vygotsky, para um bom ensino. Pôde-se, no entanto, descrever atividades grupais êmicas não previstas no processo de ensino e de aprendizagem. Este estudo e seus resultados possibilita olhares mais cuidadosos para a instrução formal em sala de aula e estudos mais atentos para a prática docente nessas circunstâncias, em especial, para formação de professores de língua estrangeira.

Plano de Desenvolvimento da Escola (PDE): o processo de implantação de uma nova proposta de descentralização em duas escolas da rede municipal de ensino de Natal de 1999 a 2002

The 1988 Constitution was the legal marc to define changes in Brazilian State with major importance to the layout of public politician. In that moment of redefinitions e openness to new ways the redemocratization, participation and decentralization of public school had as their starter the elementary school. This work focus on the manage of FUNDESCOLA, particularly one of its politics called PDE (Educational Development Plan) wich purpose is guarantee a better quality in teaching and spread out democracy throughout its methodology. It was chosen two public schools: Professor Ulisses de Góis and Antonio Campos. The theoretical and methodological orientation is based on the theory of participative democracy developed by authors such as Putnam and Pateman. They says that a cultural background precedes individual participation in society. The collected data (educational legislation, surveys with all sectors of schools and technicians of Natal educational secretary, and relevant documents of de institutions) showed that PDE. Implementation had opposite runnings in the schools studied. In one, as a consequence of bad preparations of its teachers to absorve its methodology, PDE failed. In another way, PDE achieved its goals, especially helping the structure of action plans of the school and the administrative organization making possible several pedagogic activities planned. The work concludes that the main factor the failure or success of PDE relies on the organizational (both political and pedagogical) structure of each school. This discovery implies three important guidelines when comes to formulation of public politicians: a) Constitution of school; b) the local actors who manages the actions; c) the colletive interest in taking part of decisions

Educação inclusiva e formação continuada: contribuições dos casos de ensino para os processos de aprendizagem e desenvolvimento profissional de professores

This study focuses on processes of learning and professional development experienced by elementary school teachers who have students with special educational needs in their classrooms. Cases and case methods can be used as methodological resource to articulate the continued training of teachers in an inclusive perspective. This research-intervention adopted a constructive-collaborative model for continued teachers formation. The main objective was to investigate the possible contributions of teaching cases, while investigative and formative strategies, for the processes of learning and professional development of teachers who work in the regular school. The data were collected by means of analytical activities, drafting collective discussion and teaching cases, having eight teachers as participants in a regular public school, located in the municipality of Natal/RN, Brasil. The theoretical reference covers the inclusive education, teaching learning, teachers professional development, the knowledge base for teaching and teaching cases as a resource for continued teachers formation in an inclusive perspective. The results indicated that teaching cases allowed description and analysis of educational practices developed by regular education teachers and adoption of reflective processes about situations reported and on their own pedagogical actuation, achieving indications of changes. It also indicates the contribution of cases for the clarification, systematization and extension of professional knowledge about inclusive education process as well as for involvement by the teachers of the study in a pedagogical thinking process. The lessons learned are related mainly to own role as teachers of regular education, to the role of professional support and specialized institutions faced to school inclusion. The analyses showed the methodological option was suitable to develop a schoolcentric training process, allowing teachers to seek in their actual environment alternatives for construction of a new logic of teaching that encloses diversity. The conclusion is that the cases, while bringing educational situations closer to the reality experienced by teachers in their daily professional role, causes relevant improvement on teachers education, because it offers training in conjunction with the experience and knowledge that teachers already have

O ensino de óptica no nível fundamental: uma proposta de ensino aprendizagem contextualizada para a oitava série

This dissertation presents the investigation and possible interference in the current teaching of physics, specially of optics, in the eighth grade/ ninth year / fourth cycle of junior high school. The context of the current science teaching is also presented. Besides, the following aspects are discussed: the preparation of the eighth grade teachers, their professional needs, the pedagogical practices and the theoreticmethodological difficulties faced by them. Another important issue in Science Teaching, which is also discussed in this dissertation, is the need for an efficient scientific literacy so that the citizen may express value judgment about Science and Technology issues. The data about the context were gathered from questionaires answered by the teachers. In value of this information, lesson plans were elaborated and implemented. The goal was to point out alternatives for the development of a teaching-learning evaluation which would be both pleasant for the teachers in relation to the implemented methodology, end meaningful for the students by adding elements such as: interdisciplinary approach, contextualization and preparation by competences. Furthermore it was carried out a deeper analysis of the Brazilian curriculum references (LDB, DCN, PCN, RCB) and content aspects (concepts, procedures e attitudes) to be executed by that branch of human knowledge, aiming at a really Contextualized Science Teaching, qualified and pleasant for the eighth grade level. It is also presented in this paper the profile or the Professional which teach this level at state public schools in Russas, state of Ceará, Vale do Jaguaribe Region. The efficacy of the lesson plans were also analysed by using evaluation procedures with the eighth grade students of the following schools: CAIC Senador Carlos Jereissati and EEF Manuel Matoso Filho, from which the concepts acquired during the implementation of the classes became evident in the students

A língua inglesa no ensino fundamentl I público: diálogos com Bakhtin por uma formação plurilíngue

This article aims at discussing the contributions of the Bakhtinian Circle theories to foreign language teaching and learning (HALL et al., 2005), as far as the first years of formal education in Brazil are concerned. Up to the present moment, foreign languages, including English, are not officially part of the National Curriculum of the first five schooling years. Due to the importance of English in a globalized world and despite all the controversial socio-educational impacts of such an influence, there has been an increase in the interest in this discipline at the beginning years of Brazilian public education (ROCHA, 2006), which has been happening at an irregular pace and without official parameters. Therefore, the relevance of this work lies on the possible guidelines it may offer to support a more effective, situated and meaningful teaching-learning process in that context. Standing for a pluralistic approach to language education, we take the bakhtinian speech genres as organizers of the educational process. We strongly believe that through a dialogic, pluralistic and trans/intercultural teaching (MAHER, 2007), whose main objective is the development of multi (COPE e KALANTZIS, 2000) and critical (COMBER, 2006) literacies, the hybridization of genres and cultures, as well as the creation of third spaces (KOSTOGRIZ, 2005; KUMARAVADIVELU, 2008) can happen. From this perspective, foreign language teaching and learning play a transformative role in society and English is seen as a boundary object (STAR e GRIESEMER, 1989), in and by which diversity, pluralism and polyphony can naturally find their way.
