Residência Pedagógica: criando caminhos para o desenvolvimento profissional docente

Esta dissertação se insere nos estudos da linha de pesquisa Formação de Professores, História, Memória e Práticas Educativas do Mestrado em Educação da Faculdade de Formação de Professores da Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ). Trata-se de uma pesquisa sobre programa de inserção profissional, denominado Residência Pedagógica, realizado na rede municipal de educação de Niterói no ano de 2011. O presente trabalho se desenvolverá a partir da seguinte questão: quais as possibilidades e a relevância desse modelo de inserção profissional docente? Para responder a esse questionamento, foi definido como objetivo geral investigar o modelo de formação implementado no primeiro ano de estágio probatório para os professores ingressantes. Em termos metodológicos, a pesquisa se constitui em um estudo de caso, que descreve o modelo proposto e analisa a complexidade de um processo de formação docente em serviço em parceria com uma universidade pública. Propomos traçar um panorama sobre os docentes em exercício, que atuaram como professores residentes e as condições da formação destes profissionais. Compõe ainda como estratégias metodológicas a utilização de entrevistas, o levantamento e exame da legislação vigente e a análise de documentos produzidos sobre a Residência Pedagógica. O referencial teórico adotado para embasar a questão aqui apresentada centra-se principalmente nas contribuições de Nóvoa e Marcelo Garcia para refletirmos sobre a relevância dos anos iniciais da docência e desenvolvimento profissional docente, e Fontoura e Cavaco, com relação à importância de criarmos espaços compartilhados de formação docente e com ampla participação de todos os envolvidos nas etapas destas formações. Esperamos contribuir com uma ampliação sobre o entendimento da Residência Pedagógica realizada no município de Niterói, de modo a possibilitar que iniciativas futuras, semelhantes a esta, possam se beneficiar da análise aqui desenvolvida

Tornar-se professor: desvelando a atuação docente no início do exercício da docência

This research, based on authors such as Was (1999), Guarnieri (1996 and 2005), Freitas (2002 and 2007) argue that the understanding of teacher education as a complex continuum aimed at understanding the initiation of the educational performance in the first five years of professional practice, by analyzing the history of teaching teachers early in their career. As we contemplate the specific objectives of interest to examine the training received to enter and work in the classroom and the experiences in teaching at undergraduate students. To perform the empirical study we adopted the use of semi-structured, guided by an outline of issues significant to the conduct of the respondents' narratives. The main results can highlight the difficulties encountered at the beginning of the educational performance are recurrent, data analysis shows that there is a significant increase in the duties of the teacher. With the study arrives at the premise that we must rethink the quality and structure of training courses aimed at improving the quality of performance of professional education, but for this to occur there must be deepening of studies and improvements not only in initial training and in continuing education courses. It is understood here that the training is not solely responsible for the current educational scene, which encompasses the question of the beginner there are many issues to be studied, such as public policies, structuring the curriculum, pay, but the training is beginning to there are faculty prepared to act

Building an effective trade practices commission : the role of Professor Robert Baxt AO

Bob Baxt, the third Chairman of the Trade Practices Commission, served for a single three year term from 1988 to 1991. He followed Bob McComas, who had deliberately adopted a non-litigious approach to preserving the competitive process, believing that he understood business as an insider and that much of what it did was not anti-competitive, when correctly viewed. Baxt was far more pro-active in his approach, and more closely aligned with that of the first Chairman, Ron Bannerman. Baxt sought to push the frontiers of investigation and precedent, and perhaps, more significantly, sought to influence his Ministers, the government, public servants and public opinion about the need to expand the coverage of the Trade Practices Act, increase penalties and properly resource the Commission so that it could perform its assigned roles. This article examines Baxt’s early and on-going role in teaching Australian students and professionals through his interdisciplinary Trade Practices Workshops, the political context of Baxt’s tenure, including his relations with the Attorney-General ,Michael Duffy, and his skilful handling of the Queensland Wire case.

Professor Emeritus Leo G Carney Optometry's quiet achiever

Perhaps more than any other sub-discipline in optometry and vision science, the academic field of cornea and contact lenses is populated by an assortment of extroverted and flamboyant characters who constantly travel the world, entertaining clinicians with dazzling audiovisual presentations, informing them about the latest advances in the field and generally promoting their own scientific agendas. The antithesis of this is Leo Carney (Figure 1), a highly accomplished researcher, teacher, mentor and administrator, who has quietly and with great dignity carved out an impressive career in academic optometry. Indeed, Leo Carney is optometry's quintessential ‘quiet achiever’

The Deleuze Spray, New York 1977 : an Interview with Sanford Kwinter, Professor of Architectural Theory and Criticism at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, on the Architectural Reception of Gilles Deleuze in America

So what do you want to know? I was in Paris between ‘75 and ‘78. But about half way through, Sylvère published the Anti-Oedipus issue of Semiotext(e) and, actually, that was for me one of the deciding events that made me decide to come to the United States, to come study at Columbia University. There appeared to be this little group working at Columbia working around these issues. In 1970, in Paris even, Deleuze was a cult – there was an incredibly small number of people following Deleuze... A transcript of my Interview with Kwinter about the Architectural Reception of Deleuze in America, which took place at Jerry’s,' Soho, New York, 15 January 2003. The transcript appeared as an Appendix at the back of my Masters Thesis undertaken at Yale School of Architecture, printed May 2003.
