A funcionalidade da Avaliação em Matemática no Ensino Médio

The evaluation appears as a natural process in which a professional education to build a notion of content assimilated by the students as well as whether the teaching methods adopted by him are having an effect on learning of these. Long meant, to apply only to evaluate evidence, a grade and classify students in approved and disapproved. Even today there are teachers who believe that assessment is only in this process. However, this vision has been gradually modified. The evaluation is not at the time of carrying out tests and checks, but is an ongoing process, aimed at reflection for error correction and forwarding the student to acquire the expected objectives. This study was designed to analyze the data from the result of the survey, we can see that the form evaluative functions as an element of integration and motivation for the teaching-learning process. The speech of most education professionals interviewed here reflects the current notion that the evaluation process is currently understood not only as the result of the tests, but the results of the work and / or research that students perform. There are numerous evaluative techniques that allow the teacher to evaluate student performance and escape the traditional written exam, allowing teachers and students to dialogue sought to find and correct possible errors by redirecting the student for learning, motivating for the correction, and suggesting to him new ways of study for better understanding of the issues addressed within the class. The key is to understand that the evaluation process is not just about taking exams and assign grade. Evaluation is a continuous learning process that occurs every day in order to correct mistakes and build new knowledge.

Pedagogical Aspects of Using Mobile Devices in the Biology Classroom

The ubiquity and power of personal digital devices make them attractive tools for STEM instructors who would like to stimulate active learning. These devices offer both abundant pedagogical opportunities and worrisome challenges. We will discuss our two years of experience in using mobile devices to teach biology in a community college setting, as well as our observations on the best ways to organize digital-based activities to facilitate student active learning.

Application of Narrative Pedagogy to Promote Excellence in the Clinical Setting

The clinical setting has become increasingly complex in recent years. Nurse educators have recognized the limitations of traditional pedagogies in the clinical setting. The need for innovative, student-centered learning is essential in order to transfer knowledge to practical situations and discover new ways of thinking about clinical situations. Narrative pedagogy which emphasizes how students learn and experience learning is an effective evidence-based approach to clinical education.

A formação da identidade numa perspectiva educacional

Este trabalho procura elucidar alguns conceitos teóricos de identidade, como é entendida por diferentes autores, como nós a interpretamos e como o processo educacional influencia o desenvolvimento da identidade dos adolescentes. Para isso recorremos ao fenômeno da identificação, aos conflitos intra-psíquicos, particularmente no período da adolescência, e aos vínculos de integração espacial, temporal e social. Consideramos a identidade estruturada por três níveis fundamentais: pelas estruturas mais desenvolvidas da personalidade, caracterizada pela relação interpessoal, baseada nos mecanismos de projeção e introjeção; pelos mecanismos de identificação projetiva-introjetiva e pela persistência da fusão ou estrutura sincicial primitiva que caracteriza a sociabilidade sincrética. Partimos da concepção de identificação como a forma mais primitiva de ligação afetiva. Tomamos a conquista da identidade corporal e sexual como a base das demais identidades parciais. A formação da identidade como um todo, que pressupõe uma crise na adolescência, baseia-se na problemática mais específica da formação de uma identidade sexual. Enquanto a identificação se opera através de introjeções, a identidade resulta da oposição de identificações anteriores. O processo é dialético. Somos de opinião que a identidade é formada por processos eminentemente sociais. Uma vez formada, é mantida, modificada ou mesmo remodelada pelas relações sociais. Nossa preocupação centralizou-se no processo de formação de identidade, considerado em estreita relação çom a família, a escola e a sociedade e em contínua interaçao professor-aluno, ensino-aprendizagem. Tentamos detectar as influências da educação sistematizadas no processo de formação da identidade e em especial visualizar o papel do professor no referido processo, através de pesquisa de campo. Para isso elaboramos um questionário composto de duas partes. A primeira contendo dados de identificação do aluno, da família e da escola. A segunda, composta de 40 perguntas consideradas, inferencialmente, como indicadores dos vínculos de integração espacial, temporal e social. Os sujeitos de nossa pesquisa constituiram-se de 176 alunos, na faixa etária de 14 anos, masculinos e femininos, de 5ª e 8ª series, do ensino de 1º grau das escolas da rede estadual de Divinopolis, M.G., em 1978. A análise dos dados obtidos evidenciou o desenvolvimento de nossos sujeitos em termos de identificação com os grupos primários, predominando a dependência em nível infantil.

A Internet como tecnointeração da aprendizagem: valorização da cultura e identidade juvenil

The present study investigates Internet as technological interaction in the school environment as a resource of the teaching-learning process. It aims to discuss the lack of synchronicity between proposals of educational access for Internet use and types of access and interaction applied by youngsters. For the development of this research, I resorted to a qualitative, descriptive and explanatory research focused on a group whose subjects are youngsters from eleven to fifteen years of age in a catholic school which belongs to a group of private teaching schools in Natal city, Rio Grande do Norte state. As methodological option it focus on a group and the observation of its participation, discourse analysis and ethnography, considering facts and data of the pedagogical practice concerning the focused theme, besides the attempt to know the youngsters everyday at school and the relationship between them and juvenile cultures. It recognizes the existence of two moments of the focused group: the first related to internet use like technological interaction; the second concerns to the way Internet is problematic as technological interaction in classroom learning. While contacting with youngsters, the study discusses the concepts of Media Environments, Culture, Identity, Network, Consumption and Citizenship. It recognizes that it is relevant for the school to consider Internet a pedagogical tool, directed not just at research, but mostly as learning environment and as learning construction in a collaborative way. It points out the need of approach between school and media environment, reevaluating the pedagogical practice, offering a new evaluation proposal (self-evaluation). It suggests a renewal in the teacher's pedagogical practice in the classroom and using Internet, valuing the connection between technological interaction and communication as motivation elements of student s learning construction and their effective participation in decisions involving citizenship. It gives priority to educational work directed at the establishment of dialogic relationship between codes, learning and contents, leading to the new findings domain in the media environment, enabling the development of abilities and performances directed at the recognition and consumption of information from a critical reading of the media

Formação continuada de professores que ensinam matemática: o papel do ábaco na ressignificação da prática pedagógica

The present dissertation performs a study about abacus part on the continuous education of Elementary School s Mathematic teachers on what concerns the basic operations of addition and subtraction with (re)unification by using the manipulative and/or informatical abacus. Therefore, the research intends to answer the following question: How does a teacher reframe the pedagogical practice while teaching the Decimal Numeral System and the conventional operations of addition and subtraction with (re)unification through manipulative and informatical abacus? In order to do so, we rely ourselves on the Guy Brousseau s Theory of Didactic Situations (TDS) from 1996 that affirms the necessity to trace a way in accordance with the teaching situations that lead the student s learning; and on the work of Pierre Lévy (1993), in which the poles of communication oral, written and virtual create three ways of communication through which the learning process happens. The methodology of this paper was based on the Strategic Research-Action of Franco (2005). The didactic sequence was elaborated in accordance with TDS and used the manipulative and informatical abacus as didactic resource. With the application of the didactic sequence, it was verified that the continued formation of Elementary School s teachers concerning the operations of addition and subtraction on the initial years/levels is pertinent once it has been observed some difficulties of the teachers concerning this mathematical subject. Besides, the analysis of the didactic sequence has allowed one to realize that teachers had some difficulties concerning the numeric representation with order zero, the resolution of operations of addition and subtraction using the manipulative and informatical abacus and the realization of (re)unification on the subtraction with meaning. These observations has been discussed with the teachers and, after that, it has been done some didactic-methodological routings of the operations of addition and subtraction with re(unification) that contributes with the teaching and learning process.

Avaliação em matemática: uma leitura de concepções e análise do vivido na sala de aula

Este artigo traz uma reflexão acerca da avaliação em Matemática, destacando os modos pelos quais essa avaliação pode vir a ser compreendida e discutida em um curso de formação de professores da área. Explicita-se como, a partir das situações de sala de aula, o olhar para as possibilidades da avaliação pode contribuir para a formação desse professor no que diz respeito ao compreendido pelos alunos. São analisadas três situações-problema, propostas aos alunos do curso de graduação em Matemática, cujo foco é o modo de avaliar. O olhar avaliativo e o fazer Matemática são entendidos como uma forma de o aluno voltar-se para o conteúdo matemático, abrindo-se ao que, no seu lidar cotidiano, se mostra. Diz-se da importância de se considerarem os dados relevantes e o a ser conhecido nas situações de avaliação que permitem, ao professor, ler a aprendizagem do aluno em seu modo de se expressar.

Tele-education environment and didactic iconography in sexual transmitted diseases

The field of advertising has developed techniques of mass communication and rapid transmission of information. Among these techniques are slogans and iconographies. This work used such tools for educational purposes and was divided into three modules. Module 1 evaluated the use of simplified textual communication (slogans) about the subject Sexually Transmitted Diseases. It was applied to third-year medical students, which had not taken the course on this theme. To evaluate the impact of the textual communication form (slogans), long phrases were elaborated in scientific language containing 15 topics. From these long phrases, compact phrases were developed using techniques of the advertising area for elaboration of slogans. Three forms of didactic material about that theme were developed. The first form consisted of long phrases in descriptive topics, using scientific language. The second was constituted exclusively of compact phrases in the form of slogans, and the third was composed of the combination of the two previous forms. Then, 10 multiple-choice questions were elaborated and applied in two phases. In the first phase, application occurred immediately after the reading of didactic texts; in the second phase, it happened 60 days after the reading. For statistical analysis, Snedcor's F test was used for analysis of variance, at 5% significance level. There was an increase in memorization by students who read the material containing the association between long phrases and slogans, which indicates that the latter, when used as an auxiliary model of learning, can bring significant benefits for education. Module 2 consisted of analyzing the elaboration of educational videos produced in graphic computing (called iconographies) for development of dynamic communication means. The theme Hair Cycle was utilized. Viability of high quantities of information in few minutes of animation could be demonstrated together with the advantage of presenting the process in a dynamic form without wasting scientific details. Module 3 presented the inclusion of slogans in educational videos produced in graphic computing about the Hair Cycle, showing a new tool for rapid and efficient transference of data. Slogans and iconographies, when utilized in educational material, can bring significant benefits for the student's learning.

Leitura e gêneros textuais em livros didáticos de língua inglesa do Ensino Médio

Esta pesquisa, apoiada em uma abordagem de gêneros textuais, teve como objetivo analisar a questão das atividades de compreensão escrita nos livros didáticos de Língua Inglesa do Ensino Médio. Para tanto, buscou verificar se as atividades de leitura procuram trabalhar o gênero de uma maneira comunicativa. Para isso, examinamos os gêneros, os tipos de atividades e os tipos de perguntas de compreensão escrita presentes em dois livros didáticos. Além disso, o presente estudo objetivou investigar em que medida as estratégias de leitura foram trabalhadas, explícita ou implicitamente, como um instrumento que facilita a construção de sentidos dos textos. A metodologia de pesquisa adotada foi a descrição focalizada (Larsen-Freeman e Long, 1991) que buscou selecionar dois livros didáticos constituídos em volume único, publicados em 2004 e trabalhados em escolas particulares na cidade de Belém. Este estudo fundamentou-se nos construtos teóricos sobre gênero textual (Bakhtin [1952-53] 2003; Swales, 1990,1992 e 1998; Marcuschi, 2002, 2003, 2004 e 2005; Ramos, 2004 e outros), sobre o ensino de leitura em língua inglesa (Dias, 2002, 2005; Grabe e Stoller, 2001, 2002; Koda, 2005 e outros) e sobre o livro didático de língua inglesa (Day e Park, 2005; Garinger, 2001; Souza, 1999 e outros). Além disso, retomamos as orientações relacionadas ao ensino de leitura em língua inglesa provenientes dos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Médio para a Língua Estrangeira (PCNEM-LE, 2000, 2002 e 2004). Os resultados mostraram que os livros didáticos não favorecem as atividades para a construção de sentidos na compreensão escrita de uma forma comunicativa, além de não tomar os gêneros como objetos de ensino. A construção dos sentidos é de fato escamoteada pela tradução (ou cópia) de informações do texto. Os resultados da análise evidenciam, ainda, o uso implícito das estratégias de leitura, sem uma conscientização que favoreça a busca de informação de forma mais crítica e significativa para a aprendizagem do aluno. Esses resultados têm implicações pedagógicas, principalmente porque urge a criação de espaço no cenário educacional brasileiro para que se repense e se reflita sobre o uso do livro didático no contexto de ensino e aprendizagem de Língua Inglesa como língua estrangeira.

Concepções de professores sobre a temática das chamadas dificuldades de aprendizagem

This study aimed to identify the conceptions of learning difficulties of teachers working in the beginning years of elementary education. In order to analyze such conceptions from the perspective of inclusive education, the study was carried out in two schools in a city of the State of Paraná. Sixteen teachers (mean age of 41 years) participated in the study. Of these, only one had no higher education. Interviews were carried out individually in the teachers` schools. The interviews were conducted with the support of a topic outline including: aspects of classroom management of the classes in which teachers worked; how to identify students with learning disabilities; causes of learning difficulties; how the school can help a student with learning difficulties. Each interview lasted 50 minutes on average. They were transcribed in full and submitted to thematic analysis. Four categories of analysis were determined: characterization of educational institutions' proposal; conceptions on the identification of students with learning difficulties; conceptions about causes of learning difficulties; possibilities for assisting students with learning difficulties. The results indicated that the main factors reported by the participants on the characterization of pupils with learning difficulties were of the cognitive order. The data also showed that the teachers based their opinions on family aspects in order to focus on causes of learning difficulties; they attributed the largest parcel of responsibility for solving such situations to students' families. One of the main conclusions of this study allowed us to consider that the schools that were investigated reported a practice that doesn't meet the inclusive education assumptions, denoted by the attempt to homogenize regular classes.
