A tese tem como objetivo a reflexão sobre a educação para a democracia no Brasil, fundamentada na filosofia social de John Dewey, um dos principais nomes do pragmatismo norte-americano, e Jürgen Habermas, expressão da segunda geração da Escola de Frankfurt. A Constituição Federal de 1988 institui, em oposição ao passado autoritário brasileiro, um Estado Democrático de Direito que, amparado em vigoroso sistema de direitos humanos, tem a educação como um instrumento fundamental para sua consolidação. Os referenciais teóricos, em diálogo, permitem a leitura enriquecida do projeto constitucional, dentro da tradição da modernidade em que ele se inscreve , criticamente revisitada. Democracia e educação são apreendidas à luz do conceito de discurso e de seu potencial racional cognitivo e prático. A democracia se destaca como experiência racional-comunicativa e moral cognitivista de autodeterminação, em que, no processo discursivo de formação da opinião e da vontade e de solução compartilhada de problemas comuns, prevalece sobre a atuação do sistema político e a orientando a atuação da sociedade civil, na esfera pública. Lugar da realização do projeto moderno emancipatório, traz consigo a ideia da autonomia intersubjetivamente apreendida, no medium da linguagem voltada ao entendimento. A educação para a democracia, assim concebida discursivamente, não se distingue da aprendizagem orientada ao pleno desenvolvimento da pessoa. Compreende uma experiência educativa configurada a partir das seguintes diretrizes: a educação dialógica; o desenvolvimento cognitivo e moral do educando, a partir do exercício do pensamento reflexivo e da reconstrução criativa do inventário cognitivo, em vista da solução de problemas enfrentados no curso da experiência; a pedagogia diretiva, destacado o papel do docente, inversamente proporcional ao crescimento do educando; o diálogo interdisciplinar; e a participação da sociedade civil, que se distingue do Estado, sem ser assimilada pela economia. Entreve-se, desse modo, na socialização dialógica, a formação da individualidade na direção do estágio da consciência moral autônoma (pós-convencional), com competência e disposição comunicativa para a práxis discursiva, que marca a experiência social democrática. / This thesis has the objective to discuss the education for democracy in Brazil, based on the social philosophy of John Dewey, a leading name in American pragmatism, and Jürgen Habermas, the main representative of the second generation of the Frankfurt School. In opposition to the Brazilian authoritarian past, the Federal Constitution of 1988 establishes a democratic rule of law, which is supported by a powerful human rights system and has education as a fundamental instrument for its consolidation. The theoretical references, in dialogue, allow an enriched constitutional projects interpretation, within the tradition of modernity critically revisited. The democracy and the education are discussed under the discursive standpoint. Democracy stands as a rational-communicative and moral experience of self-determination. Herein, the civil society performs, in the public sphere, the discursive formation of opinion and will and the shared solutions to its common problems. It prevails over the political system performance and directs it. Democracy is the place where the modern emancipatory project occurs. It brings the idea of autonomy, intersubjectively grasped, in the medium of agreement oriented language. Therefore, the education for democracy discursively conceived is indistinguishable from the personalitys full development education. It can be explained as an educative experience based on the following of guidelines: dialogical education; cognitive and moral development, based on reflective thinkings exercise and cognitive apparatus creative reconstruction, by means of problems solution in the course of the experience; the pedagogically-oriented education, highlighting the educators role being inversely proportional to the students growth; interdisciplinary dialogue; and the civil societys participation, distinguished for the State, without being assimilated by the economy. In this way, in the dialogic socialization, it is possible to glimpse the individualitys formation towards the autonomous moral conscience stage (post-conventional), where the person can achieve a communicative competence and disposition to the practical discourse, which marks the social democratic experience.

We sought to examine to which extent the Soviet authors shared the propositions of the Progressive Education movement, especially John Dewey s ideas, by problematizing the process of development and consolidation of capitalism, supported by liberalism and its fundamental principles, with emphasis on the second phase of liberalism, in which John Dewey is situated. We also discuss the challenges faced by the revolutionary Russia, highlighting the important elements in the struggle between liberals, fascists and socialists, as well as the elements that were incorporated, denied or even overcome by the Soviet theorists. For this study, it was necessary to understand that the concepts are not universal, but they have different meanings and respond to specific needs, taking the particularities of each time and place into account. In this sense, we examined the relationship between capitalism and liberalism, and how this relationship was expressed in the Progressive Education movement, as well as how socialism has entered this debate, considering the particular reality experienced in the Soviet Union. According to our findings, John Dewey s idea of Integral Education is that the school must provide an education that integrates culture with its practical use, which comprise the challenges faced by capitalism in that period, such as the absence of democratic institutions. On the other hand, within the Marxism s conceptual framework, the possibilities of an Integral Education aiming at the development of human being in its multiple dimensions, that is, an omnilateral education as opposed to unilateral education, could only be effective in a society where the full development of man was more important than the interests of capitalist accumulation and reproduction, that is, in the communist society. Although we are based on the assumption that Russia experienced, in the first decades after the Revolution, a transitional phase socialism , it was possible to find out that the Soviets idea of education was close to a conception of Integral Education as they pursued an education that included the political, economic and cultural dimensions, articulated to the revolutionary process. Regarding the Integrated Education, we have found that it is mainly used to express the relationship between school and society, and education and work, considering the historical particularities. Yet from different perspectives, bearing in mind the different projects of society and education, it was possible to establish the conception of Integrated Education both in John Dewey and in the Soviet authors. / Este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar as propostas de Educação Integral e Integrada nos teóricos da União Soviética, especificamente Vladimir Ilitch Ulianov, o Lênin (1870-1924), Nadejda Konstantinovna Krupskaia (1869-1939), Moisés Mikhaylovich Pistrak (1888-1940) e Anton Semionovich Makarenko (1888-1939), a partir da Revolução de Outubro de 1917 até a década de 1930; e em John Dewey (1859-1952), expoente máximo da chamada Pedagogia da Escola Nova. Tratou-se de apreender em que medida os autores soviéticos dialogaram com as proposições escolanovistas, notadamente com John Dewey, a partir da problematização do processo de desenvolvimento e de consolidação do capitalismo, sustentado pelo liberalismo e seus princípios fundamentais, com ênfase para a segunda fase do liberalismo, na qual John Dewey está situado. Ao mesmo tempo, explicitamos os desafios que a Rússia revolucionária enfrentava, destacando o que era pertinente no embate entre os liberais, fascistas e socialistas, bem como os elementos incorporados, negados ou até mesmo superados pelos teóricos soviéticos. Nesse caminho, tornou-se fundamental o entendimento de que os conceitos não são universais, mas que assumem diferentes sentidos e respondem a determinadas necessidades, respeitando as particularidades de cada tempo e lugar. É por isso que foi necessário compreender a relação entre capitalismo e liberalismo e como isso se expressou no movimento escolanovista, bem como a forma como o socialismo se inseriu nesse debate, a partir da realidade particular vivida na União Soviética. Constatou-se que, para John Dewey, a Educação Integral está articulada à perspectiva de que a escola propicie uma formação que integre a cultura com a sua utilidade prática, esta entendida a partir dos desafios enfrentados pelo capitalismo no período, dentre eles, a ausência de instituições democráticas. Por sua vez, para o marxismo, as possibilidades de uma Educação Integral, visando ao desenvolvimento do ser humano, em suas múltiplas dimensões, uma formação omnilateral, em contraponto à formação unilateral, somente poderia se efetivar numa sociedade em que o pleno desenvolvimento humano estivesse à frente dos interesses da reprodução e da acumulação capitalista: a sociedade comunista. Embora partamos do pressuposto de que a Rússia viveu, nas primeiras décadas após a Revolução, uma fase de transição, o socialismo, foi possível verificar a aproximação dos autores soviéticos de uma concepção de Educação Integral, ao buscarem uma formação que contemplasse as dimensões da política, da economia, da cultura, articuladas ao processo revolucionário. Em relação à Educação Integrada, foi possível verificar que ela é mais usada no sentido de expressar a vinculação entre escola e sociedade e educação e trabalho, respeitadas as particularidades históricas. Embora com perspectiva diferenciada, tendo em vista projetos distintos de sociedade e de educação, foi possível evidenciar a concepção de Educação Integrada em John Dewey e nos autores soviéticos.

This thesis traces versions of the theory of individualism by three major theorists, John Locke, John Stuart Mill and John Dewey, as they criticize existing social, cultural, economic, legal and military conditions of their times. I argue that each theorist modifies the theory of individualism to best suit their understanding of human nature, adapting it where they can and outright removing aspects where they cannot. Based upon each thinker's conception of human nature, their corresponding theory of individualism does justice to that nature. With their view of individualism, each thinker criticizes the activities of their day for its lack of justice to human nature for the bulk of humanity. I examine each thinker's concrete conditions, their theory of human nature, theory of justice and their corresponding theory of individualism. In the first three chapters, I examine first Locke's, then Mill's then Dewey's theory of human nature, justice and individualism. In my final chapter, I critically examine each thinker's theory of individualism and find that John Dewey's is most adequate for our current social conditions. Locke's individualism was a criticism of the absolute rule of aristocratic Land-owners and was an attempt to undermine the conceptual basis for their continued power. John Stuart Mill's individualism was a criticism of John Locke's individualism insofar as majoritarianism had taken root in England and resulted in the "Tyranny of the Majority." Therefore Mill gave high value to the sanctity of the individual even in disagreement with the overwhelming majority. Dewey's theory of individualism largely was a criticism of widespread poverty and abuse of political power in America during the Great Depression. laissez faire economics, combined with cut-throat competitiveness and atomistic individualism had resulted in pervasive injustice and Dewey recommended recognition of our inter-connectedness and continuity rather than our separateness. While I believe Dewey's theory of individualism to be most fit for our current social setting, even his theory suffers from problems yet to be worked out. I lay out these problems in the final chapter and conclude with remarks on what needs yet to be done.

The main purpose of this study is to find out how technology as a school subject is formed into pedagogical action. Issues addressed are: – How does teaching in the school subject of technology differ in terms of content and process? – How do frame factors influence teaching in technology? As analytic tools, concepts from philosophical thought on technology and education as well as frame factor theory are used to throw light on the way technology education takes shape in the practices of two primary school teachers. The philosophical concepts employed and developed have been inspired by the thinking of Martin Heidegger and John Dewey. These con-cepts are “place” and “shaping of technology,” where the shaping of tech-no¬logy involves the following phases: formulation of the assignment, analysis, visualization/construction and evaluation/reflection. The basic questions are investigated in two case studies over a period of one year. Data is collected based on ethnographic methods and consists of observations, video recordings, documentation in the form of teachers’ diaries as well as pupils’ work, taped interviews with pupils, and interviews with the two teachers both before and after the project was finished. The overall results of the study show that the two teachers, to a different degree, use place, e.g. they try to use the children’s own experiences and the surrounding environment as a starting point in their teaching. They try to organize their teaching as a process of knowledge construction instead of as a process of transmission. In that process, different forms of represen¬tation are used, such as sketches, model constructions and written docu¬mentation, with the element of model construction providing a common denominator given the availability of tools and material. Another similarity between the practices is that the children are given opportunities to work at problem solving in cases where there are no given solutions. However, they enter problems due to their own embodiment in a pedagogy of transmission, which results in the fact that the shaping of technology becomes difficult to organize. Strict borders between subjects, the fragmented timetable of the school, and the organization of the classroom space and scarce equipment and materials all influence the possibilities of teaching in technology.

Esta tesis acepta el carácter polimórfico del pragmatismo, acepta de buen grado que se trata siempre de una orientación más que de una escuela de pensamiento. Y al hacerlo constituye una nueva herejía, una hipótesis que está a mitad de camino de la interpretación ecuménica de William James y la más sediciosa de Charles Peirce. Intenta encontrar aquellas tesis que hacen del pragmatismo un nuevo nombre para una vieja forma de conducir la polémica acerca del realismo.

A noção se constitui como objeto desta investigação e, portanto, eixo dos cinco artigos, a partir de contribuições de diferentes campos de conhecimento: geografia, história do teatro, estética e educação. Os artigos são independentes, mas complementares. O conjunto deles pode ser apreendido como base interdisciplinar de uma noção que consideramos como recurso ou ferramenta heurística para o desenvolvimento de uma atividade artística nesses contextos geográficos e históricos específicos que são as interzonas. O primeiro artigo aborda a noção segundo uma perspectiva geográfica e oferece os traços característicos desses espaços de interzona. No segundo artigo, exploramos a filosofia da arte de John Dewey com o intuito de analisar as relações que o filósofo estabelece entre arte e meio ambiente. A interpretação dessas relações configura uma base para desenvolver uma estética de interzonas. A análise de uma filosofia da arte fundada na noção de experiência entendida como interação com o meio ambiente forneceu bases conceituais para desenvolver as pistas para uma estética de interzonas exposta no artigo três. A proposta dessa estética organiza-se em quatro tópicos: a questão política e social, a questão dos materiais, a questão do veículo e a questão da forma. O quarto artigo é uma revisão de certos momentos da tradição teatral ocidental do século XX que contribuem para uma reflexão no campo das artes cênicas sobre a relação entre teatro e meio ambiente. No quinto artigo, apresenta-se uma proposta de ensino, pesquisa e extensão, visando desenvolver uma linha de trabalho sobre teatro em interzonas no contexto geográfico do Extremo Sul da Bahia e no contexto institucional da Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia (UFSB). Neste artigo, a vila de Corumbau é identificada como uma interzona no Extremo Sul da Bahia. A investigação quis explorar se e como o empreendimento artístico denominado interzona pode contribuir para a sustentabilidade e novas formas de vida e arte; por fim, propõe um possível enfoque epistemológico para práticas artísticas de interzonas. / We present the notion of interzone through five articles. This notion is the object of this investigation and axis of these articles by bringing contributions from different fields of knowledge: Geography, Theater History, Aesthetics and Education. These articles are independent but complementary. They can be seized as an interdisciplinary basis of a notion that we consider as a resource or heuristic tool for the development of an artistic activity in these specific geographical and historical contexts: interzones. The first article approaches the features of such spaces that we propose to call interzone and discusses them in a geographical perspective. In the second article, we explore John Dewey’s philosophy of art in order to analyze the relationships between art and environment. The interpretation of these relations constitutes a basis for developing an interzone aesthetic. The analysis of a philosophy of art based on the notion of experience as a form of interaction with the environment provided us with the conceptual foundations to develop the field for an interzone aesthetic. The goal of this aesthetic is organized into four issues: social and political, of materials, of vehicles and of form. The fourth article is a review of certain moments from the twentieth century western theatre tradition that contribute to the discussion regarding relationship between theater and environment. In the fifth article, we present an educational research and outreach proposal in order to develop a line of work on interzone theatre within the geographical context of southern Bahia as well as the institutional context of Federal University of Southern Bahia (UFSB). In this article, we identify the village of Corumbau as an interzone in southern Bahia. This investigation was intended to explore the question of if and how an artistic venture called interzone can cpontribute to sustainability and new forms of life and art; lastly, we propose a possible epistemological approach to artistic practices in interzones.

In order to do that the methodology used was based in Dermeval Saviani s categories. Indeed to understand how Dewey s educational ideas were presented in Brazil is a very important investigation to be carried out. As result in this research through the reading and analyzes of a journal published between 1916- 1923 an effort was made to capture and comprehend the presence of Dewey`s ideas. The results point out that John Dewey`s educational thoughts were present in this teachers college and psychology teachers were responsible for teaching it. Dewey`s ideas were appropriate by this teachers before its formal entrance in Brazil in 1932. This is an important data for researches who works to understand how and when Dewey`s ideas were incorporated to our pedagogical knowledge. / A presente pesquisa buscou apreender e analisar como as ideias de John Dewey influenciaram ou até mesmo se tornaram guias teórico-metodológicos na formação de professores no interior de uma instituição educacional paulista. Apresenta-se, desta forma, como problemática, a necessidade de compreensão de como as concepções educacionais de John Dewey foram apropriadas na formação de professores da Antiga Escola Normal Secundária de São Carlos SP, procurando compreender a forma de apreensão pelos docentes e normalistas dessa instituição e as aproximações ou não que houveram neste movimento. A pesquisa corresponde a uma investigação de caráter teórico-bibliográfico tendo como princípios norteadores da metodologia e categorias de análise das ideias pedagógicas elucidadas por Saviani (2007), dentre as quais se destacam: caráter concreto do conhecimento histórico-educacional; perspectiva de longa duração ; olhar analítico sintético no trato com as fontes; articulação do singular e do universal; atualidade da pesquisa histórica. Para compreender esses preceitos buscou-se estudar e analisar os artigos publicados na Revista da Escola Normal de São Carlos (feita sob a responsabilidade dos docentes da instituição, entre 1916-1923), na qual se destacaram pela apropriação e discussão direta das concepções educacionais iniciais de John Dewey, as quais se encontram organizadas nas coleções: The Early Works (1882-1898) e The Middle Works (1899-1924) ; e cujos nomes que se destacaram por essa veiculação foram os professores: Carlos da Silveira e João Augusto de Toledo; responsáveis pela 11ª e 12ª cadeiras respectivamente, cuja denominação é a mesma: Psicologia Experimental, Pedagogia e Educação Cívica . Os resultados obtidos por esse estudo demonstram a presença e apropriação de John Dewey no interior da Escola Normal Secundária de São Carlos, e pela descrição de cada artigo que trabalha com os conceitos educacionais do autor permite a compreensão do movimento das ideias pedagógicas de John Dewey no contexto Brasil, antes, porém, do Manifesto dos Pioneiros da Educação Nova de 1932.

World religions should be taught at the secondary level of education. In this, a pragmatic approach is superior to the traditional approach, because it shows not just the history of this topic, but it also lets students experience the everyday life of those who believe. It is not in any way a method to convert anybody to this or that faith or tradition. It is a pedagogic method for critical thinking and both making and challenging interpretations of the facts before each student. In my thesis I showed my own method and I made my own version of a better textbook that utilizes the basic points of pragmatic pedagogy. I studied the works of John Dewey, John Gatto, Neil Postman and Charles Weingartner. And I propose a method that takes no more than 4 lessons, if needed, which is the most time teachers can give to such topic. I looked at the educational programs of the Czech Republic and found that world religions are a very small portion of the subject Education in citizenship. Since John Dewey was an atheist, it is not common for people to think of religion as a topic to teach with his methodology. Most of the social sciences are still taught as history lessons and not as the fun and interesting lessons they can be. I think it is not just the natural sciences that should have their laboratories at...

This article examines the role of epideictic rhetoric as a tool for promoting civic virtue in the public realm through the application of Kenneth Burke's theory of identification and John Dewey's explanation of an aesthetic experience. Long the jurisdiction of Aristotle's logical arguments, civic discussion usually works within the realm of forensic or deliberative persuasion. However, scholarship in the last fifty years suggests there is an unexplored dimension of Aristotle's discussion of epideictic and emotion that needs to be examined in an attempt to identify its usefulness as a tool for examining human experience and practical behavior in the political realm. I attempt to add to the discussion by exploring the presidential funerals of Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, and Ronald Reagan as opportunities for a nation to display a hero's virtues as extensions of society's virtues. Virtues often define what a nation considers good which, in turn, influences the nature of the discussion and often determines political action.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur lärare i årskurs F-3 resonerar kring arbetet med elever i språklig sårbarhet i matematikämnet. Denna studie är relevant då forskning visar att kommunikation och samspel är en viktig del i lärandet av matematik. Elever i språklig sårbarhet kan ha svårt att delta i moment som bygger på detta och lärare kan ha svårt att överkomma denna svårighet. Vi har genomfört semistrukturerade intervjuer med fem tillfrågade lärare. Lärarna är verksamma på fyra olika skolor i mellersta Sverige med olika lång erfarenhet. Studien har sin grund i det fenomenologiska perspektivet och det insamlade materialet är transkriberat och analyserat utifrån fenomenologisk analysmetod. Resultatet visar att språklig sårbarhet påverkar elever i matematikundervisningen i olika sammanhang. Lärare beskriver att de använder olika typer av arbetssätt för att stötta elever i språklig sårbarhet och använder olika typer av strategier för att uppmärksamma hinder. Slutsatsen för denna studie är att det är en fördel att vara klasslärare när det kommer till att hantera språklig sårbarhet i matematikundervisningen.
