O PROFESSOR DA EDUCAÇÃO PROFISSIONAL: FORMAÇÃO E PRÁTICA PEDAGÓGICA

Este estudo, inserido no contexto do professor da educação profissional no Brasil, traz à tona uma realidade pouco discutida no meio acadêmico. Discussão esta que para muitos educadores não faz sentido por acreditarem que os cursos técnicos não fazem parte da educação, mas sim de uma formação do indivíduo para o trabalho. Contudo, se é formação, deve existir alguém a formar este profissional, então, quem é este professor? Será mesmo um docente ou apenas um mero reprodutor de técnicas e conhecimentos científicos capaz de levar seu aluno a aprender apertar um parafuso ? Ou será alguém de uma criatividade e conhecimentos inquestionáveis, mas cuja práxis em sala de aula deixa a desejar por lhe faltar a metodologia para o processo ensino-aprendizagem? Para tentar entender um pouco mais deste universo esta análise será feita por meio de entrevistas com professores Engenheiros, Tecnólogos e Administradores de Empresa licenciados e não licenciados atuando na formação profissional, além de uma análise sobre os cursos de licenciatura no Brasil, conhecidos por Programas Especiais de Formação Pedagógica de Docentes, voltados a estes profissionais e o que trazem da contribuição em suas práticas diárias.(AU)

Computação em nuvem no governo: caminhos para a formação de uma agenda governamental

This work aims to understand how cloud computing contextualizes the IT government and decision agenda, in the light of the multiple streams model, considering the current status of public IT policies, the dynamics of the agenda setting for the area, the interface between the various institutions, and existing initiatives on the use of cloud computing in government. Therefore, a qualitative study was conducted through interviews with a group of policy makers and the other group consists of IT managers. As analysis technique, this work made use of content analysis and analysis of documents, with some results by word cloud. As regards the main results to overregulation to the area, usually scattered in various agencies of the federal government, which hinders the performance of the managers. Identified a lack of knowledge of standards, government programs, regulations and guidelines. Among these he highlighted a lack of understanding of the TI Maior Program, the lack of effectiveness of the National Broadband Plan in view of the respondents, as well as the influence of Internet Landmark as an element that can jam the advances in the use of computing cloud in the Brazilian government. Also noteworthy is the bureaucratization of the acquisition of goods to IT services, limited, in many cases, technological advances. Regarding the influence of the actors, it was not possible to identify the presence of a political entrepreneur, and it was noticed a lack of political force. Political flow was affected only by changes within the government. Fragmentation was a major factor for the theme of weakening the agenda formation. Information security was questioned by the respondents pointed out that the main limitation coupled with the lack of training of public servants. In terms of benefits, resource economy is highlighted, followed by improving efficiency. Finally, the discussion about cloud computing needs to advance within the public sphere, whereas the international experience is already far advanced, framing cloud computing as a responsible element for the improvement of processes, services and economy of public resources

Treinamento e desenvolvimento de pessoas e a nova gestão pública : o caso do Projeto Formação de Tecnólogos em Gestão Pública do Governo do Rio Grande do Norte

This thesis aims to identify how civil servants perceive changes made inthe carrying out of their work after their taking part in the Course forTechnicians in Public Management of the Government of Rio Grande do NorteState. As for the methodological procedures, an exploratory-descriptivequantitative research has been carried out through structured questionnaires appliedto 118 civil servants from the first groups of the Course for Technicians, thusshowing a margin of error of 4.18% to 95% of confidence, according to theprocedures of finite sampling. The table processing and analysis rested uponthe Statistical Package for the Social Sciences SPSS and was carried outthrough univariate, bivariate and multivariate techniques with emphasis on thetechnique called Factor Analysis. It was possible to identify that the level ofsatisfaction of the students was high and there was a clear perception by themthat the course assisted to changes in their work. Through Factor Analysis itwas verified that the factors that may be related to changes in the work of thecivil servants are "Contribution to Society", "Efficiency andEfficacy in the Work Environment", "Applicability of Contents"and "Capacitating for Leadership". The conclusion of the studyindicates that the factors obtained are directly related to the basis of thenew public management by means of guidance toward efficiency and efficacy in aperspective of leadership, the contents of the course being thus made into newattitudes toward work which end up yielding better results for society

Relações de cooperação em consórcios públicos de regiões metropolitanas: análises do CONDIAM/PB e consórcio grande Recife

With the disorganized decentralization occurred in Brazil after the 1988 Constitution, municipalities have risen to the level of federal entities. This phenomenon became known as "municipalism" also brought some negative effects such as low capacity financial, economic and political of these entities. In the face of this reality , the municipalities sought in models of collaborative features to address public policy issues ultrarregionais, one of these models are the Public Consortia. Characterized as the organization of all federal entities that aim to solve public policy implementation alone that they could not, or spend great resources for such. This reality of the municipalities have an aggravating factor when looking at the situation in Metropolitan Regions (MRs). This is because the RMs has a historical process of formation that does not encourage cooperation, since that were created top-down during the military regime. Furthermore, the metropolitan municipalities have significant power asymmetries, localist vision, rigidity earmarked revenues, different scenarios conurbation, difficulty standardization of concepts and others that contribute to the vision of low cooperation of these metropolitan areas. Thus, the problem of this work is in the presence of collaborative arrangements, such as the Public Consortia in metropolitan areas, which are seen as areas of low cooperation. To elucidate this research was used for analysis the cases of CONDIAM/PB and Consórcio Grande Recife/PE, because they are apparently antagonistic, but with some points of similarity. The cases has as foundation the Theory of Common Resources, which provides the possibility of collective action through the initiative of individuals. This theory has as its methodology for analyzing the picture IAD Framework, which proposes its analysis based on three axes: external variables, the arena of action and results. The nature of the method of this research was classified as exploratory and descriptive. For the stage of date analysis, was used the method of document analysis and content, Further than of separation of the cases according to theur especificities. At the end of the study, noted that the CONDIAM/PB was a strategy of municipal government of Joao Pessoa to attract funds from the Federal Government for the purpose of to build a landfill, and over the years the ideology of cooperation was left aside, the prevailing view localist municipalities. In the case of Consórcio Grande Recife/PE, members act with some degree of cooperation, especially the collaborative aspect of the region, however, still prevails with greater strength the power of the state of Pernambuco in the decisions and paths of the consortium. Thus, was conclude that the Public Consortia analyzed are an experience of collaborative arrangement, from the initiative of members, as the theory of common resources says, but has not actually signed as a practice of collective action to overcome the dilemmas faced by metropolitan areas

Criatividade para quê? conversas, processos e produções na formação de professores

Esta pesquisa, intitulada CRIATIVIDADE PARA QUÊ? CONVERSAS, PROCESSOS E PRODUÇÕES NA FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES, investiga a criatividade na formação de professores. Sua fundamentação teórica baseia-se, principalmente, na atividade criadora de Fayga Ostrower e é contextualizada nas relações existentes entre imaginação e criatividade, propostas por Vigostky. A investigação intentou compreender as concepções de criatividade de um grupo de estudantes de licenciatura da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande - FURG. Os objetivos específicos consistiram em investigar as condições inibidoras e estimuladoras da criatividade no ensino; identificar as necessidades, desejos e possibilidades dos estudantes de licenciatura em relação ao ensino atual; e discutir as evidências e as características do professor criativo. A produção de dados foi realizada a partir da execução de um projeto de extensão, no qual os participantes realizaram atividades com temáticas relacionadas ao tema de pesquisa, tais como a conceituação de criatividade; inibidores e potencializadores da criatividade; a escola criativa e o professor criativo. Os dados foram produzidos por meio de questionários, diários, áudio e criação de objetos tridimensionais, confeccionados com tecido e outros materiais. O projeto de extensão foi realizado em duas ocasiões com públicos distintos. A primeira versão foi realizada em 2013, com nove alunos de diversos cursos de licenciatura. A segunda ocorreu em 2014, com acadêmicos do curso de Artes Visuais - Licenciatura. A análise de dados foi inspirada na Análise Textual Discursiva - ATD, de Moraes e Galiazzi, e os resultados foram apresentados a partir de histórias ficcionais, contadas por professores, personagens fictícios. Os personagens foram compostos por aspectos relacionados à criatividade, apresentados e discutidos pelos grupos durante o desenvolvimento do projeto, e as histórias identificam características que inibem ou potencializam a criatividade no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Entre os aspectos apontados como inibidores do processo criativo estão o excesso de atividades ao qual estão submetidos os professores e alunos na universidade; o uso de vocabulário prolixo pelo professor; a repressão do sistema educacional, representada pela imposição de regras e pelo excesso de atividades que impedem os alunos de utilizarem a livre expressão. Como elementos que estimulam a criatividade, foram identificados o desejo pelo novo ou desconhecido; a contextualização dos conteúdos, relacionando-os ao cotidiano dos alunos; aulas realizadas em ambientes externos à sala de aula, entre outros. Os aspectos indicados pelos sujeitos da pesquisa como sendo criativos não são surpreendentes ou inovadores. Poucos professores universitários foram lembrados pelos alunos como sendo criativos, e muitas foram as críticas em relação à universidade e aos métodos de ensino utilizados pelos professores que, segundo os sujeitos, inibem o processo criativo. Embora a criatividade seja considerada vital ao homem, constata-se que, no ambiente universitário, há muitas barreiras, dificultando e inibindo o processo criativo dos futuros professores.

Intercâmbios acadêmicos internacionais: bolsas Capes, CNPq e Fapesp

This article is part of a study considering the growing importance of the international transit of people, knowledge, and practices in the schooling and professional education processes of some social segments. Considering the public funds made available by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel - Capes -, the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development - CNPq - and the State of São Paulo Research Foundation - Fapesp - to support researchers' fellowships abroad, aming to improve research and investments on Science and Technology on the context of international exchanges, we have dedicated this article to the preliminary description and analysis of the database of fellows funded abroad by these research agencies from 1970 to 2000. The movement of flows based on the quantitative methodology of the correlation of variables draws the trends of international academic exchange programs in the three research institutions and in the different areas of knowledge, and we intend to analyse them taking into account the scientific and technological development policies adopted by Brazilian State on the period.

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.
