A EDUCAÇÃO INCLUSIVA NAS ESCOLAS PÚBLICAS MUNICIPAIS DE ANÁPOLIS NOS ANOS INICIAS DO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL E A FORMAÇÃO DOCENTE

ALVES, MARIA JOSÉ DE MOURA 01 August 2010 (has links)
Submitted by admin tede (tede@pucgoias.edu.br) on 2017-10-25T12:53:22Z No. of bitstreams: 1 MARIA JOSE DE MOURA ALVES.pdf: 820834 bytes, checksum: 501fc449efda843fb4b83e6995ca22e7 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2017-10-25T12:53:22Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 MARIA JOSE DE MOURA ALVES.pdf: 820834 bytes, checksum: 501fc449efda843fb4b83e6995ca22e7 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-08-01 / Treatment to the handicap has undergone many phases, since segregation, going through integration overture until the so called Inclusive Education came along, which strengthened primarily since the Salamanca Declaration. The implementation of the Inclusive Education depends on various factors, amongst which the student board stands out. In this perspective, the objective of this study is to analyze the Inclusive Education Implementation Policy in the County Education System of Anapolis in the early years of Elementary school, as well as the Continued Preparation of Teachers to act in The Inclusive Overture. It is also intended to elucidate the main legislations relative to inclusive education on an international, national and countywide scale, as well as discovering the condition considered necessary for the inclusive implementation, to discuss the role of the teacher in their preparation, analyzing how this preparation has been occurring in relation to the teachers of the 1st and 5th grade of the county education of Anapolis. The methodology used can be described as an exploratory research that involved a bibliographic gathering of the subject studied, and data collecting through questionnaires, documental analyses and strategic methodology of the focal group. 1st to 5th grade Elementary teachers of 15 model schools of Inclusive Education in Anapolis, which corresponds to a total of 50% of this school type, participated in the research, not to mention the teacher of Special Educational Services of the same schools. It is suggested that everyone assumes their responsibility as to the effectiveness of inclusive education, leaving in to public authorities to guarantee the adequate conditions to the implementation, amongst which include the adaptation of the physical structure, adequate didactic material and real conditions of teacher preparation to work with diverse cases. On the other hand, teachers also need to invest in their own formation, seeking to upgrade their knowledge not only through courses, but by reading up to date material about the subject and exchange information with colleagues. The County Secretary of Education has promoted some preparation courses for teacher focusing on Inclusive Education, but this has not been enough to attend to the necessities of teacher preparation. / O atendimento à pessoa com deficiência passou por diversas fases, desde a segregação, passando por propostas de integração até o advento da chamada Educação Inclusiva, cujo fortalecimento deuse principalmente a partir da Declaração de Salamanca. A implementação da Educação Inclusiva depende de uma série de fatores, dentre os quais se destaca a formação docente. Nesta perspectiva, este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar as Políticas de Implementação da Educação Inclusiva no Sistema Municipal de Ensino de Anápolis nos anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, bem como a Formação Continuada dos Professores para Atuar numa Proposta Inclusiva. Pretende-se ainda elucidar as principais legislações relativas à educação inclusiva no âmbito internacional, nacional estadual e municipal, bem como conhecer as condições consideradas necessárias para a implementação da educação inclusiva, discutir o papel do professor em sua formação, analisando como esta formação vem ocorrendo com relação aos professores de 1º ao 5º ano da rede municipal de ensino de Anápolis. A metodologia utilizada pode ser descrita como pesquisa exploratória, que envolveu levantamento bibliográfico sobre o tema em estudo, e coleta de dados mediante aplicação de questionários, análise documental e estratégia metodológica do grupo focal. Participaram da pesquisa professores regentes de 1º ao 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental de 15 escolas referência em Educação Inclusiva em Anápolis, o que corresponde a 50% do total de tais escolas, além dos professores de Atendimento Educacional Especializado das mesmas escolas. Sugere-se que cada um assuma sua responsabilidade em relação à efetivação da educação inclusiva, cabendo ao poder público garantir as condições adequadas à sua implementação, entre as quais estão as adaptações na estrutura física, material didático adequado e condições reais de formação docente para atuar na diversidade. Por outro lado, o professor também precisa investir em sua própria formação, procurando atualizar-se não só por meio de cursos, mas pela leitura de materiais atualizados sobre o tema e troca de experiência com colegas. A Secretaria Municipal de Educação tem promovido alguns cursos de capacitação docente voltada para a Educação Inclusiva, mas estas não têm sido suficientes para atender às necessidades de formação dos professores.

Le travail d'enseignant en milieu carcéral

Lamoureux, Daniel 07 1900 (has links)
Jusqu’à maintenant, la prison a surtout été analysée à partir du point de vue des détenus et celui des surveillants comme si le vécu de l’enfermement et la relation détenus-surveillants étaient les seuls points de vue permettant d’en apprendre sur ce qu’elle est et d’en saisir le fonctionnement. Nous pensons, pour notre part, que d’autres points de vue sont possibles, voire même souhaitables. C’est le cas, notamment, de celui des enseignants qui exercent leur métier en prison. Bien que théoriquement en mesure d’offrir un complément intéressant aux fonctions de dissuasion et de réinsertion sociale que la prison remplit difficilement à elle seule, le projet éducatif carcéral constitue une activité plus ou moins marginalisée qui est ramenée au niveau des autres activités pénitentiaires. Au premier chef, c’est à la prison que nous sommes tentés d’en imputer la responsabilité et, de fait, elle y est pour quelque chose. D’abord conçue pour neutraliser des criminels, il lui est difficile de les éduquer en même temps. Mais cette marginalisation, nous le verrons, n’est pas le seul fait de la prison. Elle tient aussi beaucoup au mandat qu’ils se donnent et à la façon dont les enseignants se représentent leur travail. S’étant eux-mêmes défini un mandat ambitieux de modelage et de remodelage de la personnalité de leurs élèves délinquants détenus, prérequis, selon eux, à un retour harmonieux dans la collectivité, les enseignants déplorent qu’on ne leur accorde pas toute la crédibilité qui devrait leur revenir. Cette situation est d’autant plus difficile à vivre, qu’à titre de travailleurs contractuels pour la plupart, ils sont déjà, aux yeux du personnel correctionnel, objets d’une méfiance qui sera d’autant plus grande que, pour effectuer leur travail, ils doivent se faire une représentation du délinquant et du délit peu compatibles avec celles qui prévalent dans le milieu. C’est ainsi qu’à la marginalisation comme fait organisationnel se superpose une auto-marginalisation, incontournable, qui est le fait des enseignants eux-mêmes et qui se traduit par leur attitude de réserve à l’égard de la prison. La chose est d’autant plus paradoxale que le mandat que se donnent les enseignants, bien qu’ils s’en gardent de le dire, correspond tout à fait au projet correctionnel. Mais la prison, davantage préoccupée par la gestion du risque que par la réinsertion sociale des détenus, n’a d’intérêt pour l’éducation en milieu carcéral que dans la mesure où elle permet une socialisation à l’idéologie pénitentiaire et contribue à consolider la paix à l’intérieur des murs avec la complicité des enseignants eux-mêmes. Du reste, ces derniers ne sont pas dupes et lui en font grief, encore qu’il soit permis de nous demander si on ne lui reproche pas, plus simplement, de ne pas leur donner toute la place qu’ils croient leur revenir et de les laisser suspendus dans le vide carcéral. / Until now, the prison has been analyzed, primarily, from the prisoners and warders points of view as if the reality of confinement and the prison-warder relationship were the only likely opinions that could allow us to learn how the prison operates and thus understand its function. On the contrary, we think that other points of view are not only possible but even desirable. In particular, this is the case for teachers who are working in prisons. Although theoretically being able to offer an interesting complement to the functions of dissuasion and social rehabilitation that the prison fills with difficulty, the prison educational project constitutes a more or less marginalized activity which is brought down to the level of other penitentiary activities. At its highest degree, we are tempted to charge the prison with responsibility for it; and, in fact, a prison does have a certain liability in this matter. Initially conceived to neutralize criminals, it is difficult for the prison to educate them at the same time as pointed out by the sociology of organizations. This marginalization, we will see, is not solely that of the prison but also in the way in which the teachers perceive their work and the mandate which they assign themselves. Prison teachers have defined, for themselves, an ambitious mandate of modeling and remodeling the personalities of their delinquent pupils, a prerequisite, according to them, for a harmonious return to the community. It is an ambitious mandate for which they feel that they do not receive the respect they deserve. This situation is made all the more difficult because, as contractual workers for the majority, they are, in the eyes of the correctional staff, more or less objects of mistrust. This feeling is increased by the fact that the teachers, in order to carry out their work, develop a portrait of the delinquent and offence that is not very compatible with that which prevails in the prison environment. Thus, this marginalization as an organizational fact superimposes a self-marginalization, impossible to circumvent, which is true of the teachers themselves and which results in their attitude of detachment toward the prison. It is all the more paradoxical that the mandate the teachers give themselves, although they take great care to not say it, corresponds completely with that of the correctional project. Even though the prison is more preoccupied with the risk management of its prisoners rather than their social rehabilitation, it does have an interest in education in prison but only insofar as it merges with penitentiary ideology and contributes to a consolidated peace inside the walls made complicit by the teachers themselves. The latter are not easily deceived and object to this point of view and we may ask ourselves whether their criticism of the prison is simply because the prison does not provide them with the required space they believe they should occupy thus leaving them suspended in a vacuum that is the correctional system.

Escolarização de crianças e adolescentes hospitalizados: do direito à realidade

Xavier, Thaís Grilo Moreira 28 February 2012 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2015-05-08T14:47:26Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 1280961 bytes, checksum: 704c707d724630fe3de7dc54cec64863 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012-02-28 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The right of children and teenage to continue enjoying the school process during the hospitalization is guaranteed through resolution No. 02 of 2001 of the National Council of Education/Chamber of basic education. Despite so many laws and documents violations of those rights is a daily fact in Brazil. Our goals were to identify the design of managers of education and health professionals about the education of children and teenage during hospitalization; and seize the family conception of school-age children and teenage regarding the expulsion of the schooling process, during hospitalization. We use in our study the qualitative approach of exploratory type descriptive. The empirical material was produced through semi structured interview and focus group conducted in University Hospital Lauro Wanderley (HULW) and at the Children s Hospital Arlinda Marques (HIAM) in the period April to August 2011. The subject of the research were 21. Among them, 7 were managers, 6 professional and 8 family/caregivers. For the interpretation of empirical material we use thematic analysis. Resolution N° 196/96 National Health Council, and resolution COFEN no 311/2007 guided the development of this research. In the process of analysis of the empirical material resulted in three categories: Hospitalization and Schooling: implications of remoteness and coping strategies; Formal Schooling in Hospital: knowledge of the laws imposed; Pedagogical care Hospital: perception of managers and professionals. These categories have revealed hospitalization is shown that considered moment that makes the child/teenage experience painful experiences due to the remoteness of friends and daily routine; the idleness and lack of activities that will remember the school everyday cause child/teenage retract themselves and forget the healthy childhood. Family members and professionals they blame the management for the non fulfillment of hospital school service polictic, in the absence of that family care seeks ways of tackling school losses of their children. Sometimes managers do not believe that the family recognizes the importance of education for the life of their children. The limited perception of possibility of continuity of cognitive and intellectual formation process demonstrates lack of knowledge and sensitivity of some managers and professionals. Therefore, we infer that, the lack of hospital grade is fact, so we call attention to the need for a face-to-face discussion that should result in effectiveness/implementation this educational strategy. The problems faced by children and adolescents have urgency to be solved, and should be addressed, thus avoiding the aggravation of the situation and the losses. We believe that the political will and looks more human and less welfare of managers will be able to consolidate the implementation of public policies imposed. / O direito de crianças e de adolescentes de continuar desfrutando da escolarização durante a hospitalização é garantido na Resolução Nº 02 de 2001 do Conselho Nacional de Educação/Câmara de Educação Básica. Apesar de tantas leis e documentos, a violação desses direitos é um fato diário no Brasil. Nossos objetivos foram identificar a concepção dos gestores da educação e da saúde e dos profissionais de saúde acerca da escolarização da criança/adolescente durante a hospitalização; e apreender a concepção da família de crianças em idade escolar e adolescentes quanto ao afastamento do processo de escolarização, por ocasião de internação hospitalar. Utilizamos em nosso estudo a abordagem qualitativa do tipo exploratório descritiva. O material empírico foi produzido por meio de entrevista semi estruturada e grupo focal, realizados no Hospital Universitário Lauro Wanderley (HULW) e no Hospital Infantil Arlinda Marques (HIAM) no período de Abril a Agosto de 2011. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram 21. Dentre eles, 7 eram gestores, 6 profissionais e 8 familiares/acompanhantes. Para a interpretação do material empírico utilizamos a análise temática. A Resolução Nº 196/96 do Conselho Nacional de Saúde, e a Resolução COFEN Nº 311/2007 nortearam o desenvolvimento desta pesquisa. No processo de análise do material empírico, foram identificadas três categorias empíricas: Hospitalização e Escolaridade: implicações do afastamento e estratégias para o enfrentamento; Escolarização Formal no Hospital: conhecimento da legislação vigente; Atendimento Pedagógico Hospitalar: percepção de gestores e profissionais. Essas categorias revelaram que a hospitalização é considerada momento que faz a criança/adolescente vivenciar experiências dolorosas devido ao afastamento dos amigos e da rotina diária; a ociosidade e a ausência de atividades que relembrem o cotidiano escolar fazem com que crianças/adolescentes se retraiam e esqueçam da infância saudável. Familiares e profissionais responsabilizam a gestão pela não efetivação da política de atendimento escolar hospitalar, e não dispondo desse atendimento, a família busca formas de enfrentar as perdas escolares de seus filhos. Gestores, por vezes, não acreditam que a família reconheça a importância da educação para a vida de seus filhos. A percepção limitada diante da possibilidade de continuidade do processo de formação cognitiva e intelectual demonstra falta de conhecimento e de sensibilidade de alguns gestores e profissionais. Diante disso, inferimos que, os problemas enfrentados por crianças e adolescentes têm urgência em serem resolvidos, devendo ser solucionados, evitando assim o agravamento da situação e os prejuízos. A inexistência da classe hospitalar é fato, portanto chamamos atenção para a necessidade de uma discussão presencial que culmine na efetivação/implantação dessa estratégia. Acreditamos que a vontade política e os olhares mais humanos e menos assistencialistas dos gestores poderão se consolidar na implementação das políticas públicas instituídas.

Mais recentemente, diferentes autores vêm sugerindo que essa relação não é tão direta. No presente estudo, sete crianças, entre sete e doze anos, com diagnósticos de deficiência (visual, intelectual, física) e/ou dificuldades de aprendizagem, participaram de um projeto de capoeira. O estudo envolveu a observação de 26 aulas semanais de 45 minutos. Foram examinadas videogravações e anotações em Diário de Campo, visando o preenchimento de dois protocolos descritivos: 1- centrado na dinâmica do grupo e 2- centrado no desempenho de cada participante. A análise dos resultados permitiu visualizar envolvimento nas atividades propostas, a apropriação de conhecimentos teóricos e a execução dos gestos técnicos de acordo com as orientações, para a maioria das crianças, com diferentes níveis de aquisição. Os resultados estão em consonância com as concepções de deficiência como fenômeno complexo, e destacam a importância de um planejamento pedagógico apropriado ao perfil dos alunos / Abstract: The diagnostic of impairment has been traditionally related to prognoses of learning difficulties and generalized deficits. More recently, different authors have asserted that this is not a direct relationship. In the present study, seven children took part on a "capoeira" project. The group comprised children seven to twelve years old, who had been diagnosed as presenting an impairment (visual, intellectual or physical impairment) and/or learning difficulties. The study involved the observation of 26 weekly classes of 45 minutes each. Video recording and field notes were analyzed, with different focuses: 1- group dynamics, and 2- performance of each participant in the activities. The analysis of the results indicated the involvement of the children in the proposed activities, the appropriation of theoretical knowledge and the execution of technical gestures, according to the corresponding orientation, for the majority of the children, with different acquisition levels. The results are in agreement with conceptions of deficiency as a complex phenomenon, and highlight the importance of a pedagogical planning which corresponds to the students' profile / Mestrado / Saude da Criança e do Adolescente / Mestre em Saude da Criança e do Adolescente

Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, tipo transversal, e, como instrumento de coleta de dados foi utilizado um questionário aplicado por entrevista contendo perguntas abertas e fechadas, elaborado especificamente para esta pesquisa por meio de estudo exploratório. A coleta de dados realizou-se no período de março a agosto de 2010, nos serviços de Habilitação e Reabilitação Visual da Associação de Deficientes Visuais de Ribeirão Preto (ADEVIRP) e no Centro de Estudos e Pesquisas em Reabilitação "Prof. Dr. Gabriel O.S. Porto" (CEPRE). A população foi composta por 19 escolares que situavam-se na faixa etária entre 12 e 17 anos, sendo 10 mulheres e 9 homens, perfazendo um total de 52,6% e 47,4%, respectivamente, 63,2% (12) estavam matriculados no Ensino Fundamental II e 36,8% (6) no Médio. Verificou-se que 94,7% (18) dos entrevistados apresentavam baixa visão congênita e 5,3% (1) adquirida, foram classificadas como baixa visão moderada (78,9%) (15), profunda (15,8%) (3) e grave (5,3%) (1). Com relação às percepções sobre a condição visual, 73,7% (14) relataram enxergar bem, 68,4% (13) declararam conhecer o nome do problema visual, mas somente 36,8% (7) informaram o nome da parte do olho afetada. Quando questionados por outras pessoas sobre a deficiência, 94,7% (18) declararam que respondem naturalmente e apesar dos escolares informarem enxergar bem, verificou-se que apresentam dificuldades na realização de atividades cotidianas, sobressaindo as dificuldades acadêmicas (78,9%) (15) com ênfase nas atividades de leitura da lousa (60,0%) (9) e do dicionário (26,7%) (4). Quanto ao uso de recursos de tecnologia assistiva, sobressaíram os recursos de informática específicos para baixa visão e os recursos não ópticos, na mesma proporção (73,7%) (14), recursos para perto (57,9%) (11) e para longe (52,6%) (10). As principais expectativas dos escolares sobre o futuro relacionam-se à vida profissional (78,9%) (15), vida pessoal e saúde ocular (26,3%) (5). A maioria dos escolares almejava ter um bom emprego. Na vida pessoal verificou-se que os escolares desejavam construir família por meio do casamento. Quanto à saúde ocular, os resultados mostraram que parte dos escolares desejava enxergar melhor enquanto que outros esperam adaptar-se melhor a baixa visão. Conclui-se que apesar de possuírem baixa visão, relatam enxergar bem e possuem dificuldades visuais na realização das atividades cotidianas, sobressaindo-se as dificuldades acadêmicas, sendo a informática o recurso de tecnologia assistiva mais aceito. Conclui-se também que os escolares mostraram-se otimistas em relação ao futuro / Abstract: The purpose of this research was to identify the perception of low vision students about their visual condition, to verify what and how they say about their disability, to know the most important assistive technology resources used during daily activities, and their expectations about the future and also to offer subsidies to the planning of actions in Education, Habilitation and visual Rehabilitation. It is a cross type and descriptive study and as an instrument for data collection was used a questionnaire applied by interviews with discursive and multiple choice questions, elaborated specifically for this research through exploratory study. The data collection were performed from March to August of 2010, at the Visual Habilitation and Rehabilitation services by Ribeirão Preto's Association of Visual Disability (ADEVIRP) and at Center of Studies and Researches in Rehabilitation "Prof. Dr. Gabriel O. S. Porto" (CEPRE). The population was composed by 19 students who were between 12 and 17 years old, with 10 women and 9 men, making up a total of 52,6% and 47,4% , respectively, 63,5% (12) were enrolled in Junior High and 36,8% (6) in High School. It was noticed that 94,7% (18) of the interviewed presented congenital low vision and 5,3% (1) presented acquired low vision. Students had moderate low vision (78,9%) (15), profound (15,8%) (3) and severe (5,3%) (1). When it comes to their own perception about their visual difficulties, 73,7% (14) said they could see properly, 68,4% (13) declared to know the name of their visual problem, but only 36,8% (7) reported the affected eye part. When questioned by other people about their own disability, 94,7% (18) declared answering normally and despite students have informed seeing well, it was noticed that they have difficulties to perform daily activities, especially academic (78,9%) (15) with emphasis on reading the blackboard (60,0%) (9) and dictionaries (26,7%) (4). About the uses of assistive technology resources, the low vision specific computer resources and non optical-aid excelled in the same proportion (73,7%,) (14), near optical aids (57,9%) (11) and far optical aids (52,6%) (10). The student's most important expectations about the future are related to their professional life (78,9%) (15), their personal life and their eye health (26,3%) (5). Most of the students expected to have a good job. About their personal lives, it was verified that they intend to get married and raise a family. About their eye health, results showed that part of the students want to improve their vision, while others expect to adapt to their low vision condition. It's possible to conclude that even though they suffer from low vision, they naturally declare seeing properly and have difficulties when performing daily activities, specially with academic issues, being the computer resources the most accepted. It's also possible to conclude that students demonstrate optimism about the future / Mestrado / Saude, Interdisciplinaridade e Reabilitação / Mestre em Saúde, Interdisciplinaridade e Reabilitação
