Gestão democrática caminhos e possibilidades : um estudo de caso em uma escola pública de ensino fundamental em Belém

A linha de pesquisa desenvolvida nesta dissertação não é inédita, todavia, apresenta algumas peculiaridades a respeito da gestão democrática para a educação brasileira, mais especificamente em Belém do Pará, que são no mínimo, um contributo à sociedade. Principalmente porque demonstra sucintamente, no primeiro e segundo capítulos a trajetória sócio histórica e a política-pedagógica da gestão democrática no Brasil a partir dos meados do século XVI, até a implementação da LDB nº 9394/96. No terceiro capítulo trato a respeito das Leis de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional, nº 5692/71 e da LDB nº 9394/96, esta última objetivou romper com os resquícios deixados pela 5692/71, vale frisar que o primeiro estado a implementar as Leis de Diretrizes e Bases, assentadas na Lei nº 9394/96, foi o estado do Pará. Nos capítulos: quarto e quinto destaco a Metodologia aplicada à pesquisa de campo; às análises dos dados coletados e mensurados, e construo uma triangulação e/ou cruzamento (Teoria-Práxis-Teoria que resultará à práxis), entre a teoria pesquisada e analisada, com as referências bibliográficas e com os dados coletados no campo acerca dos caminhos e possibilidades necessários para articular a gestão democrática no município de Belém. Para construir esse trajeto recorri às leituras bibliográficas de autores que já aprofundaram o assunto como: José Júlio Chiavenato, Luiz Fernando Dourado, Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti, Carlos Libâneo, João Monlevad, Vítor Paro, Michel Thiollent, Sofia Lérché Vieira entre outros autores que contribuíram para a construção teórica e prática, e que estão citados na referência. No que concerne a pesquisa de campo foi efetivada uma sondagem prévia e uma apresentação do tema à direção da escola e para a presidente do Conselho Escolar, em seguida foram feitos contatos com os profissionais da educação através de conversas informais a cerca do assunto. Após esse processo foram aplicados questionários com vinte e seis perguntas objetivas e duas perguntas subjetivas, que estão expostas no anexo desta dissertação; outros mecanismos utilizados na pesquisa de campo foram as entrevistas in lócus com alguns profissionais da escola pesquisada, utilizou-se também a observação participante com o viés na abordagem sócio histórica. O trabalho de campo e as referências bibliográficas coadunadas à observação participante, no cotidiano da comunidade escolar, foram essenciais para a consolidação deste trabalho dissertativo que envolveu um tema, que certamente, está em voga na educação brasileira e que serviu como base para o título desta dissertação: Gestão democrática caminhos e possibilidades:. Um estudo de caso em uma escola pública de ensino fundamental em Belém. A dissertação em questão também apresenta no capítulo quinto o tripé básico para a análise científica relacionada a gestão democrática que são: Eleição direta para o Conselho Escolar, eleição direta para o diretor/articulador/social, eleição para o grêmio estudantil, esta sob a direção dos alunos. A base desse tripé deve estar assentada na participação qualitativa de todas as categorias da comunidade escolar, preservando e respeitando a autonomia de cada categoria, bem como demonstra a aproximação e a contribuição da comunidade externa para o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. E, por fim, não menos importante, proponho algumas sugestões que estão expostas nas conclusões e demonstram claramente a necessidade de implementação de alguns caminhos a serem seguidos e implementados para que de fato e de direito se processe a gestão democrática participativa, à luz dos conceitos apresentados nesta dissertação que estão diretamente relacionados à formação, à participação, e à autonomia, para isso é necessário alguns ajustes na lei nº 7.722/94, na resolução nº036/2008 e o conhecimento e domínio da Lei nº 9394/96.__ ABSTRACT: The line of research developed in this thesis is not new, however, presents some peculiarities about the democratic management in Brazilian education, specifically in Belem, which are at least a contribution to society. Mainly because it shows succinctly in the first and second chapters the history and socio-historical political-pedagogical democratic management in Brazil since the mid-sixteenth century through implementation of the LDB 9394/96. ln the third chapter dealing with respect to the Laws of Directives and Bases of National Education, 5692/71 and 9394/96 LDB, the latter aimed to break with the remnants left over from 5692/71, it is worth stressing that the first state to implement the laws Guidelines and Bases, sitting in the Law 9394/96, was the Para The fourth and fifth chapters highlight the Methodology applied to field research, the analysis of data collected and measured and construct a triangulation and I or intersection (Theory-Praxis-Theory resulting praxis), between theory researched and analyzed with the references and the data collected in the field about the ways and possibilities necessary to articulate the democratic management at the education system in the municipality of Belém. To construct this path resorted to reading literature by authors who have explored the subject as: Jose Julio Chiavenato, Luiz Fernando Dourado, Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti, Carlos Libâneo John Monlevade, Paro Vítor, Michel Thiollent, Sofia Lerche Vieira and others who contributed to the theoretical and practical construction andare cited in the reference.

The field research and the references link ed to the participant observation in daily school community. were essential for the consolidation of this dissertational work involving a theme, which certainly, is in vogue in the Brazilian education and That served as the basis for this title dissertation: Management democratic ways and possibilities: A in a public elementary school case study in Belém. This dissertation Thesis presents in Its fifth chapter the basic tripod for scientific analysis related to the democratic management which are: Direct election for the School Board, direct election for chief articulator/social, for students union, this last one under the direction of the students. The basis of this tripod must be seated in the qualitative participation of all categories of the school community, preserving and respecting the autonomy of each on and demonstrates the approach and the contribution of the externa! community to the process of teaching and learning. At finally, but not less important propose some suggestions that are exposed on the conclusion and clearly demonstrate the need to implement some ways to be followed and implemented so that actually and by law the participatory democratic management, may be conducted according to Ulrich the concepts of this dissertation, are directly related to education, participation, and autonomy. However, this requires some adjustments in the Law 7.722/94, in its resolution 036/2008, and indeed the knowledge mastery of the Law 9394/96.

The Support Educational Commitee Participation in the Pedagogical Approach of an Educational Integration

Educational services are essential to social and economical development of people, mainly to the progress of all sectors of society. Establishing actions that can promote the participation of various social groups is essential to improve their quality of life and building more respectful and fair human rights without any discrimination or exclusion. In recent years, the Costa Rican education system has undergone significant changes due to the pedagogical approach of inclusive education in which students with educational needs may require different support and specialized resources for training and development.

A Pedagogical Strategy for Integrated Education of Spanish in the 4th to 6th Grades of the General Basic Education

Language teaching has become a priority in the Costa Rican educational system, considering it as a tool for communication and development of thought. Without language, there is no access to other curriculum disciplinary knowledge. A successful experience conducted some years ago, with students from 4th to 6th grade, was the basis for the design and implementation of a professional development activity addressed to promoting an integration strategy previously adjusted according to the Ministry’s requirements and the existing national regulations. This study is developed in the framework of a qualitative paradigm including research-action and systematization. A purposive sample was selected based on a suitability factor, through which individuals are informed about the strategy, and then the strategy is applied to a group of students from urban-marginal areas. The techniques used include literature review, analysis of curriculum and Ministry’s regulations, application of an in-depth interview, discussions from the course’s participant in a portfolio, and discussions from students to whom the strategy was applied. We analyzed the considerations of teachers and students, as well as the theoretical and regulatory information by triangulation. The study’s conclusion is the necessity of a communicative approach in language teaching and our recommendation is to implement the strategy developed in the Costa Rican classrooms as provided in this paper.

Pedagogical Mediation for the Autonomy of Future Professionals in Teacher Training

This article studies the importance of pedagogical mediation in helping first-year students in the Teacher Training area to advance from intellectual heteronomy to intellectual autonomy. It explains some strategies and experiences implemented by the authors. It focuses on the need of paying attention to students in order to understand their expectations, opinions and previous experiences as a basis for developing different topics and concepts, to favor an actual free participation in the pedagogical mediation dynamics and, consequently, opportunities for students to express themselves with autonomy. The aforementioned strategies allow for the transition from a pedagogy centered on teaching to a pedagogy centered on learning, in such a way that the future educator becomes a protagonist in his/her formation and constructs his/her own intellectual identity, based on the concept of action-reflection-action. The authors of this article consider that the first year in higher education is a privileged opportunity to develop the autonomy of future teachers, and, as stated by Freire (2004), the respect for autonomy is an ethical imperative.
