In recent years, as sensitivity for human rights and diversity in society increased, inclusion has become an important subject matter for discussions both in wider social context as a parameter reflecting more conscious and democratic understandings of human world, and in particular context of different disciplines. Inclusion has become a widely discussed theme of inclusive education practices both internationally and in Turkey, as well as a central theme for Universal Design approach. In education, inclusion is a challenge which calls for a comprehensive institutional restructuring and demands adaptations in physical education environments. This condition implicitly challenges architects to take action for developing effective design approaches in order to create inclusive education environments. This thesis is a search for a common framework for education and architecture for promoting inclusive education in primary schools. Despite the potential of Universal Design principles for bringing education and architecture together for this common goal, Universal Design approach remains limited for promoting a comprehensive understanding of inclusion. Through a comprehensive review of legislations, literature and a case study carried out for conceiving practical concern of inclusive education, this study broadens the notion of inclusion and claims that inclusion is an ongoing process during which students develop their capacities with the provision of equal opportunities of access to educational resources, supportive services, teachers, professionals and effective education environments. Depending on this thesis&rsquo / process-based and student-centered understanding of inclusion, Universal Design principles are differentiated by focusing on design aspects which maximize students&rsquo / individual strengths during inclusive education process.

In this context, this paper aims to point out the general heterogeneity among experienced growth of Protestant and evangelical denominations, especially those who claim to be inclusive by attending to human diversity, seeking to understand the relationship between religion and homosexuality. Specific objectives aim to understand the functioning and speeches produced by Comunidade Crist? Nova Esperan?a in Natal. The theoretical framework was seated in the works of Bento (2008), Lima (2009), Goffman (2001), Natividade (2008), Musskopf (2008), Helminiak (1998), Foucault (1997), among others. We tried to discuss the trajectory and how is the process of organization of the Comunidade Crist? Nova Esperan?a in Natal, the social advances that have reached homosexuals in our country, how this institution has contributed to the shift in paradigm in Christianity in respect to matters pertaining to religion and homosexuality, and the meaning of being a homosexual christian from the viewpoint perceived by social subjects living this experience / A pluralidade religiosa tem sido cada vez mais intensa no territ?rio brasileiro, ao passo que tem servido como objeto de estudo em diversas ?reas do conhecimento. Neste contexto, esta disserta??o tem como objetivo geral apontar a heterogeneidade vivenciada no meio protestante e o crescimento das denomina??es evang?licas, notadamente aquelas que se declaram inclusivas por atender ? diversidade humana, buscando entender a rela??o entre religi?o e homossexualidade. Como objetivo espec?fico, visa a compreender o funcionamento e os discursos produzidos pela Comunidade Crist? Nova Esperan?a em Natal. O referencial te?rico esteve assentado nas obras de Bento (2008), Lima (2009), Goffman (2001), Natividade (2008), Musskopf (2008), Helminiak (1998), Foucault (1997), entre outros. Buscou-se discutir a trajet?ria e como se d? o processo de organiza??o da Comunidade Crist? Nova Esperan?a em Natal, os avan?os sociais a que t?m alcan?ado os homossexuais em nosso pa?s, de que forma esta institui??o tem contribu?do para a quebra de paradigmas no cristianismo no que tange ?s quest?es pertinentes ? religi?o e homossexualidade, bem como o significado de ser um crist?o homossexual segundo a ?tica percebida pelos sujeitos sociais que vivem esta experi?ncia

No. of bitstreams: 1 Tese part 1 Ricardo Antonio Goncalves Teixeira.pdf: 4391159 bytes, checksum: bbb55bd614204cac670c8bdc31191c41 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-09-20 / This work is part of a research in Faculty Training and Professionalization from the Post-Graduate Program of the School of Education, Federal University of Goiás/Brazil, and was developed with the purpose of understanding the complexity of the process of teaching and learning mathematics from an inclusive perspective, conceived in diversity. To this end, we seek to analyze the existing relationships among inclusion,mathematics and mathematical education, taking as parameter the history of mathematics and its schooling in order to unveil the pathways, perspectives,actions,concepts and conceptions. Aimed at the development of a study that effectively envisions the transformation of the action and discourse actually experienced in the process of teaching and learning mathematics in the context of diversity, this work undertook a research project on a state level public school in the capital of Goiás, based on empirical data and bibliographical studies. The field school,referred by the Secretariat of State and Education of Goiás SEE,met the demands of study for it presents an overly complex démarche.By means of understanding the multiple relationships between mathematical education and the process of exclusion, we seek to analyze SEE s policies, programs and conceptions,as well as its structure, organization and operation. Equipped with information and eager for investigation, we enter the school field to carry out an action-research, within the assumptions of the systemic and integral action-research as proposed by André Morin, outlined under the five principles of analysis - contract, participation, change, discourse and action - and organized under four processes - planning,silent observation, planning for action, and the planned action using as reference the classroom s internal and external environments. We present, in analytical fashion, the results of the developed actions and conclude that it is possible to conceive a transforming mathematics which can effectively contribute to the social and cultural progress of the students. A transforming mathematics, however, demands from both the teacher and the school, as well as from the educational system, an inclusive perspective that embraces everybody, with no exceptions, and in order to reflect upon a mathematics approach under this perspective, it is necessary to comprehend inclusion in its multiple dimensions: historical, conceptual and conceptive. / O presente trabalho insere-se na linha de pesquisa Formação e Profissionalização Docente, do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Federal de Goiás, e foi desenvolvido com o propósito de compreender a complexidade do processo ensino-aprendizagem de matemática na perspectiva inclusiva, concebida na diversidade. Para tanto, busca-se analisar as relações existentes entre inclusão, matemática e educação matemática, tendo como parâmetro o histórico da matemática e a sua escolarização a fim de desvelar os (des)caminhos, perspectivas, ações, conceitos e concepções.Tendo por objetivo o desenvolvimento de um estudo que contemple, de forma efetiva, a transformação da ação e do discurso na realidade vivenciada no processo ensino-aprendizagem de matemática no contexto da diversidade, empreende-se o desenvolvimento de uma pesquisa em uma escola da rede estadual de educação da capital goiana, com base empírica e estudos bibliográficos e documentais. A escola campo, referenciada pela Secretaria de Estado e Educação de Goiás SEE, atende às exigências do estudo, por apresentar uma démarche demasiadamente complexa. Para a compreensão das múltiplas relações existentes entre a educação matemática e o processo de exclusão, busca-se na SEE analisar as políticas, programas e concepções, bem como sua estrutura, organização e funcionamento. Munidos de informações e sedentos pela investigação, adentra-se à escola campo para a realização de uma pesquisa-ação, dentro dos pressupostos da pesquisa-ação integral e sistêmica proposta por André Morin, delineada sob cinco princípios de análise o contrato; a participação; a mudança; o discurso; e a ação e organizada sob quatro processos o planejamento; a observação silenciosa; o planejamento para a ação; e a ação planejada ,tomando como referência o ambiente interno e externo à sala de aula. Apresentam-se, de forma analítica, os resultados das ações desenvolvidas e conclui-se que é possível conceber uma matemática transformadora que possa contribuir, efetivamente, no desenvolvimento sociocultural dos educandos. Mas uma matemática transformadora exige tanto do educador e escola quanto do sistema educacional uma postura inclusiva que contemple a todos, sem exceção e para refletir sobre uma proposta de matemática nessa perspectiva, é necessário compreender a inclusão em suas múltiplas dimensões: histórica, conceitual e conceptiva.
