A REPRESENTAÇÃO E A LINGUAGEM COMO ELEMENTOS DE IN-FORMAÇÃO DA IDENTIDADE CULTURAL RURAL: POR UMA REFLEXÃO PRELIMINAR

Este ensaio representa uma provocação inicial para a tessitura de reflexões acerca do processo construtivo da identidade, sendo ela rural. São categorias importantes nessa análise a representação e a linguagem caipira que, por meio de códigos e signos, remete ao ‘espaço’ e ‘lugar’ rural.  Nosso objetivo é analisar as representações e a linguagem como elementos construtores da cultura e identidade rural nos processos de inserções territoriais (re-territorialização) de comunidades tradicionais no interior goiano e mineiro. A proposta é calcada nas perspectivas teórico-metodológicas da Geografia Cultural. Um olhar sobre as comunidades tradicionais do interior goiano e mineiro, no contexto socioprodutivo da cana – de – açúcar darão visibilidade aos signos, às imagens e às representações que estes sujeitos fazem do seu ‘lugar rural’. Existe uma identidade rural sul – goiana e mineira? Em que medida as representações dos sujeitos rurais contribui para formação de uma identidade rural camponesa? A linguagem caipira ainda é marca da cultura rural goiana e mineira? Tais questões serão compreendidas à luz da Ciência Geográfica em sua perspectiva cultural.

A FORMAÇÃO SOCIOESPACIAL DO ESTADO DE SANTA CATARINA, BRASIL

A discussão proposta por este artigo tem como base teórico-metodológica aportes que permitem uma inter-relação entre a dinâmica econômica e geográfica. Para o conjunto do trabalho proposto, o primeiro aporte teórico refere-se à categoria de formação socioespacial, tanto em escala nacional (Milton Santos), como em escala regional (Armen Mamigonian), isso, dentro do ponto de vista geográfico, cuja referência teórica é a Formação Econômica Social (Marx). Portanto, este trabalho tem como objetivo demonstrar a organização socioespacial do território catarinense, descrevendo as diferenças internas de formação e composição desta realidade, na conjuntura atual, através de exemplos da dinâmica industrial de cada região do Estado, diferenciado as áreas de pequena produção mercantil das áreas de formação latifundiária (maior e menor dinâmica econômica, respectivamente).

DINÂMICA SOCIOECONÔMICA E A FORMAÇÃO DE TERRITÓRIOS NO CENTRO DE FORTALEZA-CE: O BECO DA POEIRA E A FEIRA DA SÉ

Compreender o fenômeno urbano no Centro de Fortaleza, com ênfase no comércio informal constitui-se objeto de investigação dessa pesquisa. Nos últimos anos, as transformações no mercado de trabalho, ocasionadas pela recessão econômica, pelo desemprego estrutural, tem contribuído para o crescimento do trabalho informal. São mulheres e homens que ao ficarem de fora do trabalho formal buscam extrair da venda de diversos produtos nos centros das cidades uma renda que garanta a sobrevivência de suas famílias. Partindo do pressuposto de que o comércio informal é um fenômeno crescente na capital cearense e que o mesmo tem sido responsável por mudanças na organização espacial da área central, o tema aparece com grande relevância na atualidade. A existência do Comércio Informal proporciona a formação de Territórios no Centro da cidade de Fortaleza. Com um comércio informal relevante e crescente o bairro que compreende o Centro da cidade passou a ser modificado pelos agentes sociais que o freqüentam e que ali trabalham. Mudaram-se as formas e as funções. Outrora esse local servia para uso da elite local e hoje está sendo usado pela população da periferia da capital cearense. Assim, o Centro Tradicional passa a ser freqüentado pela população de menor poder aquisitivo.

Carotenóides: propriedades, aplicações e biotransformação para formação de compostos de aroma

Carotenoids are widely distributed in nature, providing yellow, orange or red color in a great number of vegetables, microorganisms and in some animals. Carotenoids act as biological antioxidants and seem to play an important role in human health by protecting cells and tissues from the damaging effects of free radicals and singlet oxygen. Several authors describe the oxidative cleavage of carotenoids in flavor compounds as occuring through chemical or photochemical degradations or through biotechnological processes. Biotransformation of carotenoids seems to be a reasonable alternative to produce flavor compounds since these compounds are considered 'natural' ingredients. In this work we describe the properties of some carotenoids, as well as biotechnological approaches to obtain its oxyfunctionalized derivatives.

Formação das substâncias de reserva durante o desenvolvimento de sementes de urucum (Bixa orellana L. - Bixaceae)

Annatto seeds do not germinate during early stages of their development because of insufficient reserve substances. In situ analysis showed that the principal reserves are proteins and starch, deposited in endosperm cells. During the early stages of development, the starch grains were elliptic, because amylose was the minor component. During development, these grains became more spherical due to an increase in amylose relative to amylopectin. Endosperm cells do not contain protein bodies, but they accumulate proteins dispersed in the cytoplasm. At the final stage of development the proteins became compacted due to the dehydration of the seeds wich is part of the global process of orthodox seeds maturation. Natural fluorescence revealed aromatic amino acids, principally tryptophan and tyrosine in the proteins. The seeds reached their maximum dry weight after moisture contents had declined to around 60%. At this point the seeds presented maximum germination capacity.

Formação de conceitos em crianças cegas: questões teóricas e implicações educacionais

Concept formation depends on language and thought, that promote the integration of information coming from the senses. It is postulated that changes in the person, the objects and events to be known suggest flexible models of concept teaching. It is assumed that the same considerations apply to teaching concepts to blind pupils. Specificities of this process are discussed, including the role of touch as resource, although not as a direct substitute to vision, and the notion of representation as a basis for the elaboration of pedagogical resources for the blind student.

A formação de personalidades éticas: representações de si e moral

The article presents studies of a current investigation among 75 adolescents from 12 to 15 years old, students of private schools of Campinas city, that have as main objective to notice a possible correspondence among the moral judgments and the representation that individuals have about themselves. From a questionnaire, the studies bring out the representations of these individuals and answer a questioning if they would have an ethical character or not and if these individuals would correspond to their moral judgments. The results point out to a correspondence among those whose self representations are characterized by more evolved ethical contents and judgments related to sensitivity and to the characters feelings involved in the situations described. Such studies validate the intention of this article to discuss the correspondences between ethics (how the individual sees himself/herself) and moral (how he/she judges the situations moral).

Formação de professores: aspectos históricos e teóricos do problema no contexto brasileiro

This article deals with the theme of teacher training from the historical and theoretical perspectives. In the first part, the historical focus is introduced and the trajectory of teacher training in Brazil is examined, dividing it into six periods beginning with the passing of the Law of Schools of First Letters in 1827 and closing with the promulgation of the new law for national education in 1996. The second part deals with theoretical aspects, considering the two basic models of teacher training, their implications for the training of teachers of primary and pre-school education, the dilemma resulting from the contraposition between the two models and the way for overcoming it and concluding with observations on the training of teachers for special education.

A formação humana na perspectiva histórico-ontológica

The theme of human formation is at the centre of the philosophy of education, whose aim is precisely the process of human promotion brought about by education. Starting from the critical vigilance proper to philosophy, the text sketches a phenomenology of the present time, verifying that the ideas prevailing in education at present are centred on the critique of reason and on the notions of truth and objectivity. This neo-pragmatism, which in the attempt to oppose metaphysics becomes deeply metaphysical, reducing everything to language, is contested by the authors with Marx's thoughts as a historicising philosophy that concerns not abstract subjects, but real individuals, historical subjects that are constituted as a synthesis of social relations. To that end, the authors resort to the historical ontological reflection on human formation contained in Marx's Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844. The article concludes by defending the proposition that access to the classics is a necessary condition for human formation.

Autoscopia: um procedimento de pesquisa e de formação

This article considers a procedure for data collection called autoscopy. Autoscopy entails the video recording of a practice with the purpose of allowing analysis and self-evaluation by one of the protagonists of that practice. The objective of the video recording is that of apprehending the actions of the agent (or agents), the scenario, and the plot that make up a situation. The recorded material is subjected to sessions of analysis after the action that aim at the understanding of the reflective process of the agent (or agents) through their verbalizations during the analysis of video recorded scenes. The present text introduces a theoretical basis for the procedure of autoscopy, deals with advantages and limitations of its use, as well as with aspects that deserve attention and, finally, describes the authors' experiences in two studies in which the procedure was employed. Starting from these two experiences, differences and similarities are pointed out between the studies, especially regarding the participants, object, and the time distribution of the video recordings. The authors draw considerations about the formative-reflective potential of the procedure, both for research situations and for the learning and training of various professionals, considering it to be an excellent educational instrument. It is, however, vital to keep in mind the need to recognize and return to the teacher, as an autoscopic participant, his condition as subject of his own profession, thereby promoting, besides the self-evaluation, also the autonomy of his thinking and doing.

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.
