A intenção é discutir o papel da afetividade neste processo, identificando suas diferentes formas de manifestação, demonstrando o processo de transformação pelo qual ela passa. Fundamenta-se na abordagem histórico-cultural, discutindo a natureza social dos processos psíquicos, o entrelaçamento entre processos afetivos e cognitivos, como também a perspectiva de desenvolvimento que os acompanha. Destaca, ainda, a função social das emoções e o papel determinante da afetividade no desenvolvimento da criança, bem como o papel das interações sociais para a construção do conhecimento e da própria pessoa. A coleta de dados baseou-se em observações realizadas em sala de aula, envolvendo 8 professores e 51 alunos das quatro séries citadas, numa escola da rede particular em Campinas (São Paulo/Brasil). Utilizou-se o procedimento da autoscopia que consiste na realização de vídeogravações dos sujeitos envolvidos e, posteriormente, submetê-los à observação do material filmado. Registrou-se, através da câmera de vídeo, a dinâmica interativa da sala de aula e, após uma etapa inicial de seleção das imagens e identificação dos sujeitos, estes foram convidados a assistir o material editado. Durante as sessões de autoscopia, os sujeitos eram incentivados a fazer comentários a respeito das práticas pedagógicas, envolvendo a atuação dos professores. Desta maneira, foi possível identificar, nos comentários dos alunos sobre a prática docente, as diversas formas de manifestação da afetividade em cada momento do processo de escolarização, bem como as mudanças que se observaram nas diferentes idades. Tais comentários foram organizados em oito núcleos de significação, segundo os sentidos atribuídos pelos sujeitos às práticas pedagógicas da sala de aula. Os núcleos referem-se aos seguintes aspectos: formas do professor ajudar o aluno, formas do professor falar com o aluno, atividades relevantes destacadas pelos alunos, outras aprendizagens indo além dos conteúdos, formas do professor corrigir e avaliar, aspectos da prática pedagógica que repercutem na relação do aluno com o objeto de conhecimento, a própria relação do professor com o objeto de conhecimento e os sentimentos e percepções dos alunos em relação ao professor / Abstract: This research aims to identify the affection in the interactive dynamics of the classroom, involving students in four different moments of the educational process ¿ the latest grade of each level of education - kindergarten (students around 6 years old), elementary school ¿ 4th grade (students around 10 years old), 8th grade (students around 14 years old) and high school (students around 17 years old). The intention is to discuss the role of affection in this process, identifying its various forms of expression, demonstrating the process by which it goes through, acquiring different forms of expression. The research is based in the historical-cultural approach, discussing the social nature of mental processes, the relationship between affective and cognitive processes and the character of development that accompanies it. It highlights the crucial role of emotions and affection in the child¿s development, as well as the role of social interactions in developing knowledge and people. The data collection was based in classroom observations, involving 8 teachers and 51 students of the four grades mentioned above, in a private school in the city of Campinas (São Paulo/Brazil). The autoscopia procedure was utilized, which consists of holding video-recordings of the individuals involved and submitting these individuals to the observation of the material recorded. A video camera was used to record the interactive dynamics of the classroom and after an initial stage of selection of images and identification of the individuals, they were invited to see the edited material. During the autoscopia sessions, the individuals were encouraged to make comments about what they saw. Thus, it was possible to identify, by the comments of the students, the various forms of affection expressed in every moment of the educational process, as well as the differences that were observed in different levels of education. Such comments have been organized into eight clusters of meaning, according to the meanings the individuals assigned to the teaching practices in the classroom. The clusters of meaning relate to the following points: the teacher¿s ways of helping the student, the teacher¿s forms to speak to the student, relevant activities highlighted by the students, other learning beyond the contents, the teacher¿s forms to correct and evaluate, aspects of the pedagogical practice that impact in the relationship of the student with the object of knowledge, the teacher's own relationship with the object of knowledge and the student¿s feelings and perceptions in relation to the teacher / Doutorado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Doutor em Educação

Science teaching at the secondary level can be made more effective with the judicious utilization of a multi-media approach involving modem information and communication technologies that is entering the Indian educational system in general and the schools in Jammu region (J&K State), in particular, surely but slowly. A major impact of technology today in the field of education is that at all levels classrooms are becoming technology-rich learning environments and as such there is a need to conduct research to study the learning environments of technology-supported classrooms. The study described in this thesis utilized the Technology-Rich, Outcomes-Focused Learning Environment Inventory (TROFLEI), to study the perceptions of students' actual and preferred classroom learning environment in a technology-supported science classroom at the secondary level in an Indian school situation. An important aspect of this research was to determine the reliability and validity of this scale for use in Indian classroom settings. An attitude scale derived from the Test for Science Related Attitudes (TOSRA) for studying the attitude of students towards science was also employed and lastly the Questionnaire on Teacher Interaction (QTI) was used to analyze the teacher student interactions in a technology-supported science classroom environment. Data for research were collected from 700 secondary students in a co-educational Indian school in the city of Jammu. / The study reported that the TROFLEI and the QTI were reliable and valid instruments for assessing the psychosocial learning environments III a technology-supported classroom and the teacher-student interactions III such environments. Significant associations are also reported between the students' perceptions of their technology-supported learning environment and their perceptions of the teacher-student interactions with three learner outcomes; attitude towards science, academic efficacy and academic achievement. Significant gender differences in technology-supported learning environments have also been reported in this study. This research study happens to be the first of its kind in this region and should provide a thrust towards the use of technology-supported classrooms for effectively teaching other school subjects.
