The text is resulting from a field research about the continued Formation and the Experiencial Knowledges of teachers at a Unit of Municipality Basic Education in São Luís and their implications theoretical-practical. It deals with a case study, so at the sphere of this paper which is prone to study the repercussion of the mentioned formative, process developed at the school s rooms as to the docent s practice. The investigative course based itself in the legal aspects linked to the education and the theoretical contributions from exponentials like Althusser (1999), Bourdieu (1983), Gramsci (1991), Forquím (1995) and others. Its focus is centered upon the teachers, school managers and pedagogical coordinator who get their functions at the Fundamental teaching and considered that all of them take part at the activities linked to the São Luís te Quero lendo e Escrevendo Programme, developed by the Municipal Secretary of Education SEMED, which has as one of its segments the teacher , continued formation. Besides the documental analysis, the bibliographical inquire, it was applied the questionnaire and it was developed a half - structured interview as well as the observation, aiming the recollection of informations. From the interpretations upon the talking of the school representatives, studying field, it was contemplated aspects linked to the occurrence of the continued formation, at the school and its importance to the teachers. / Reflexão sobre as questões relativas à formação de professores e algumas de suas especificidades como perspectiva desta dissertação. O texto é resultante de uma pesquisa sobre a Formação Continuada e os Saberes Experienciais de Professores numa Unidade de Educação Básica Municipal de São Luis e suas implicações teórico-práticas. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, portanto, no âmbito desta pesquisa que se propôs estudar a repercussão do mencionado processo formativo, desenvolvido no recinto escolar, na prática docente. O percurso investigativo respaldou-se nos aspectos legais referentes à educação e nas contribuições teóricas dos expoentes Althusser (1999); Bourdieu (1983); Gramsci (1991); Forquim (1995) e outros. O foco de estudo centrou-se nos professores, gestores e coordenadores pedagógicos que desenvolvem suas funções no Ensino Fundamental, considerando que todos participam das atividades vinculadas ao Programa São Luís te Quero Lendo e Escrevendo, desenvolvido pela Secretaria Municipal de Educação - Semed, o qual tem como um dos segmentos a formação continuada de professores. Além da análise documental, da pesquisa bibliográfica, aplicou-se o questionário, desenvolveu-se a entrevista semi-estruturada bem como as observações feitas, com vistas à coleta das informações. A partir das interpretações dos depoimentos dos representantes da escola, campo de estudo, contemplam-se aspectos pertinentes à ocorrência da formação continuada, na escola e sua significância à docência.

Esta tese inscreve-se no âmbito das pesquisas sobre os saberes docentes, considerando o trabalho como o contexto em que ocorre a mobilização e a constituição destes saberes, com base nas experiências de formação e atuação profissional. Trata-se de uma investigação sobre os saberes presentes na atividade docente desenvolvida durante a alfabetização, etapa da educação básica em que têm ocorrido os maiores índices de fracasso escolar. A pesquisa busca compreender os processos de apropriação/objetivação e criação de saberes na prática pedagógica de uma alfabetizadora por meio de uma abordagem etnográfica que se utiliza de observação participante, entrevistas, análise documental e fotografias. Que saberes são mobilizados pela professora durante seu trabalho com as crianças? Que elementos contribuem ou influenciam na constituição dos saberes da professora? Como ela lida com situações que a defrontam com o não-saber? Procurando responder estas perguntas, a pesquisa mostra que há duas dimensões importantes na constituição desses saberes. Uma dimensão histórico/dialógica que evidencia como os saberes são apropriados e objetivados ao longo da história de formação e de atuação profissional, por meio de diálogo com: a) as diferentes experiências vividas pela docente; b) as formadoras e parceiras profissionais com quem a professora tem a oportunidade de estabelecer trocas; c) as crianças com as quais trabalha; d) os materiais teóricos e pedagógicos consultados na preparação das aulas. Ouvindo as solicitações, necessidades e possibilidades de seus alunos a professora vai dando sentido à tarefa de ensinar a ler e a escrever a todos eles. A segunda dimensão dos saberes docentes é a dimensão criadora, pois mesmo submetida às determinações de um trabalho realizado no cotidiano, este não se caracteriza apenas como reprodução. Ao contrário, diante dos desafios postos pela tarefa de alfabetizar, a professora reorganiza o que sabe, busca novos conhecimentos, usa diferentes recursos para criar formas distintas de intervenção no processo pedagógico. Identifica-se tal dimensão nos seguintes aspectos: na condução do trabalho em sala da aula, no atendimento à diversidade no processo de aprendizagem e no trabalho com os conteúdos relacionados à alfabetização. Por fim, a pesquisa aponta a ênfase dada pelas políticas públicas à formação de professores com programas que se superpõem e que atendem aos diferentes segmentos profissionais em projetos distintos. Além disso, os investimentos na formação não são articulados com as necessárias melhorias das condições objetivas de trabalho nas escolas, evidenciando como, na escola investigada, a precariedade destas condições dificulta as possibilidades de desenvolvimento de um trabalho coletivo, capaz de oferecer um ensino de melhor qualidade às crianças de periferia urbana para quem a escola é a principal fonte de acesso ao conhecimento sistematizado. / This thesis’ scope is that of researches on teaching knowledge, regarding work as the context in which the mobilization and construction of this knowledge takes place, based on experiences of academic development and professional performance. It is an investigation of knowledge present in teaching activity acquired during literacy instruction, the stage on basic education most vulnerable to student’s academic failure. The research seeks to understand the appropriation/objectification processes and the creation of knowledge into the teacher’s practice through an ethnographical approach, which is applied in participatory observation, interviews, document’s analysis and pictures. Which knowledge is mobilized by the teacher during her work with the children? Which elements contribute or influence the construction of teacher knowledge? How does she act with the absence of knowledge? Trying to answer these questions, the research presents two important dimensions into the construction of knowledge. A historical/dialogical dimension that highlights how knowledge is appropriated and objectified along the development history and professional performance, by means of dialogue with: a) the different experiences lived by the educator; b) professional partners with whom the teacher has the opportunity of establishing exchanges; c) the children with whom she works; d) the theoretical and pedagogical materials used up in class preparation. As the teacher listens the solicitations, needs and possibilities of her students, she gives meaning to the teaching task of reading and writing. The second dimension of teaching knowledge to be considered is it’s creative dimension. Even submitted to the limitation of daily work this activity can not be characterized as reproductive. On the contrary, as she faces the challenges of the literacy teaching task, the teacher reorganizes what she knows, searches new knowledge and uses different resources to create different forms of intervention into the pedagogical process. Such dimension can be identified by the following aspects: classroom management, diversity attendance at the process and activities related to literacy teaching. Finally, the research points to the emphasis given by public policies to teachers' development which tends to occur at superposed programs, which attend different professional segments in distinct projects. Moreover, the investments on teacher’s development are not articulated with the necessary improvements to the work’s objective conditions at schools, evidencing how, at the investigated school, the precariousness of these conditions impede the possibilities of a collective work development, able to offer a better teaching quality to suburban children to whom school is the main source of access to systematized knowledge.

O presente estudo buscou identificar os saberes construídos por diretores e coordenadores da rede municipal de educação no município de São Bernardo do Campo na realização do trabalho de formação de professores em serviço, bem como a relação entre esses saberes e a formação oferecida aos diretores no período entre 1998 e 2008. O trabalho inicia pela construção dos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos a partir da revisão da literatura atual sobre formação continuada de professores, na qual se destacaram alguns conceitos que nortearam a pesquisa empírica, dentre eles, o de saber docente (Ruth Mercado), vida cotidiana (Agnes Heller), mediação (Lev Vigotsky), atividade (Alexis Leontiev) formação em serviço (Antônio Nóvoa), profissionalização (Maria Roldão), gêneros profissionais (Yves Clot) e saberes do formador de professores (Marguerite Altet). O trabalho empírico, em moldes qualitativos, investigou os percursos realizados por diretores e coordenadores pedagógicos, na construção de saberes necessários à formação docente, dentro das escolas da rede municipal. Os procedimentos adotados incluem entrevistas com diretores, coordenadores e gestores do sistema de ensino, análise de documentos produzidos sobre a escola e relativos à formação dos formadores de professores. Também foram realizadas observações em momentos formativos, como HTPC e reunião pedagógica, procurando evidenciar situações que explicitem os saberes construídos por eles: a escuta ativa, o planejamento da ação formativa, a articulação teoria e prática, a mediação e os procedimentos metodológicos (a devolutiva, a intervenção e o encaminhamento). A pesquisa mostra que o estabelecimento de um compromisso com a aprendizagem como finalidade da gestão escolar resulta de investimento formativo realizado pelo sistema de ensino. O estudo pode contribuir com o reconhecimento desses profissionais como atores de valor legítimo na formação de professores. / The present study attempted to identify the knowledges constructed by school principals and coordinators in teachers in-service training activities in the São Bernardo do Campo municipal school system, and the relation between these knowledges and the formation offered to the principals in the period between 1998 and 2008. The work starts by the construction of the theoretical-methodological assumptions based on the review of the current literature on teacher continued education. In this review, some of the guiding concepts of the empirical research emerged, namely, teacher knowledge (Ruth Mercado), daily life (Agnes Heller), mediation (Lev Vigotsky), activity (Alexis Leontiev), in-service education (António Nóvoa), professionalization (Maria Roldão), professional genres (Yves Clot), and teacher educator knowledges (Marguerite Altet). The empirical study, of a qualitative nature, investigated the trajectories followed by school principals and pedagogical coordinators in the construction of the knowledges necessary to teacher education within schools of the municipal education system. The procedures adopted included interviews with school principals, coordinators and managers of the education system, the analysis of documents produced about the school, and documents related to the training of teacher educators. Observations were also carried out at formative moments, such as HTPC and Pedagogical Meetings, with the purpose of clarifying situations that bring to the fore the knowledges constructed by them: the active listening, the planning of the formative action, the articulation between theory and practice, the mediation and the methodological procedures (feedback interview, intervention, and referral). The research shows that the establishment of a commitment to learning as the aim of school management results from a formative investment made by the school system. The study can contribute to the recognition of these professionals as agents of legitimate value in the formation of teachers.

This thesis examines the effects of anti-obesity discourses on parenting practices. While academics have paid attention to the political dimensions of anti-obesity policy and related discourses (for example Colls and Evans, 2009, Evans, 2006, 2010, McPhail, 2009, Rawlins, 2009), and others have considered the experiences of feeding and caring for families (for example Curtis and Fisher, 2007, DeVault, 1991 Warin et al, 2008, Valentine, 1999), the way in which anti-obesity policies become enrolled in, and possibly contested through, parenting practices remains largely uncovered. In response to this, the thesis explores the ways in which these anti-obesity policies and discourses are brought into family life, lived, experienced, and made meaningful, contributing to critical obesity geographies and broader literature on bodies, parenting, care, and consumption. The thesis draws on research interviews and focus groups with parents, in which accounts of parenting practices and understandings around body size were explored in light of contemporary UK anti-obesity discourse. Using this research to explore the everyday enaction of parenting knowledges around body size, these parenting enactions are investigated alongside the governance of body size and parenting, developing an account of the ways in which we can see the aims of the state enacted in everyday practices of care (Dyck et al, 2007). By paying attention to everyday practices, this thesis argues that anti-obesity discourse emerges not only through top-down practices of governance, but through mundane and personal relationships of care and engagement with bodies, food, and fat. However, caring practices are demonstrated as existing in multiplicity and the excesses of everyday life in relation to parenting and body size are given space in the thesis to challenge narrow accounts of what it means to be a ‘good’ parent or have a ‘good’ body size; it is argued that we need to take seriously the situated lay knowledges that are developed through everyday practices of care. The thesis contends that such notions of ‘good’ parenting, bodies, and size are enacted through anti-obesity discourse as a particular classed discourse of parenting knowledge and body size, which furthermore, reinforce gendered versions of bodies, parenting, and everyday life.

This work has considered the centrality of language in order to understand how the processes of conceptualization of the term deaf culture have been constituted, as this concept has acquired a status of truth and reality that has become increasingly stronger in the academic environment. The text presents a kind of research that problematizes utterances that constitute a discursive web about deaf culture. The focus is on analyzing how deaf culture has been narrated and thought by the deaf themselves and how it has been constituted as a concept, thus acquiring a real meaning and having a fundamental role in the constitution of the deaf subject, despite acting as a closed, universal concept. The subjected knowledges of the deaf community, as a way of enunciation of this cultural discourse, have triggered the analysis. Under this blend of truths that have been socially authorized by the deaf, deaf culture has become a conceptual imperative, thus inviting us to perceive those enunciations, as well as reflect and act on them. This concept has become a device that triggers discursive practices related to deafness. This work aims at perceiving the imperative of deaf culture at the conceptual level and seeks to genealogically understand the emergence of such a theme, the truths that have supported it and the discursive strategies involved in this process. / Este trabalho toma a centralidade da linguagem para compreender como se constituem os processos da conceituação do termo cultura surda , uma vez que este vem tomando status de verdade e realidade cada vez mais forte no universo acadêmico. O presente estudo apresenta uma forma de pesquisa que problematiza os enunciados que constituem uma trama discursiva acerca da cultura surda. O foco foi analisar como a cultura surda vem sendo narrada e pensada pelos próprios surdos e como vem se constituindo como um conceito, tomando significado real e tendo um papel fundamental na constituição do sujeito surdo. Nesse sentido, a cultura surda vem atuando como um conceito fechado e universal. O que instiga o olhar analítico são os saberes sujeitados da comunidade surda como forma de enunciação desse discurso cultural. Sobre esse amálgama de verdades socialmente autorizadas pelos surdos, a cultura surda vem se tornando um imperativo conceitual, convidando-nos a perceber essas enunciações, bem como a pensar e agir sobre elas. Essa conceituação torna-se um dispositivo que coloca em funcionamento práticas discursivas no que tange à surdez. O trabalho objetiva perceber o imperativo da cultura surda no plano conceitual e busca genealogicamente entender a emergência do tema, as verdades que o sustentam e as estratégias discursivas envolvidas nesse processo.

[pt] A pedagogia convive com uma profunda mutação tecnológica dos meios de comunicação. A comunicação e a tecnologia estão modificando a nossa relação com o tempo e o espaço, provocando um ritmo acelerado de mudanças no mundo a ser conhecido e nos modos de conhecê-lo. Com a expansão dos recursos de software e da Internet, as tecnologias da informação e das comunicações (TIC) abriram caminho para uma relação renovada com o saber, a ser explorado no ensino e na formação do magistério. Ao mesmo tempo, nesse quadro de transformações que afetam a cultura e a profissão docentes, apresenta-se aos professores a tarefa de ir construindo, com base na reflexão sobre a experiência pedagógica concreta, um saber que integre as contribuições tecnológicas e científicas ao seu ofício. Este trabalho discute a formação docente em tecnologias da informação e das comunicações na rede pública, a partir de uma reflexão sobre: os desafios que essas tecnologias apresentam à mediação pedagógica; as análises de alguns educadores sobre o panorama da informática na formação de professores; e a interlocução com formadores de professores de um Núcleo de Tecnologia Educacional do Rio de Janeiro (NTE). / [en] Nowadays pedagogy is inserted in a intense technological mutation of the media. Communication and technology are transforming our relationship with time and space, producing an accelerated rhythm of changes both in the world itself and in our knowledge of it. With the expansion of software and Internet resources, information and communications technologies (ICT) had opened way for a new relationship with knowledge, yet to be explored in the education and professional development of teachers. At the same time, in this context of transformations which affects both culture and teaching profession, such workers are faced with the task of constructing a new knowledge based on their actual pedagogical experience. Such knowledge must integrate the new scientific contributions to their practice. The present work discusses the professional development of teachers facing new information and communications technologies in public education. It is based: a) on the challenges that such technologies present to the pedagogical mediation; b) on the analysis of some educators on how informatics affect the formation of professors; and c) on discussions with mentors of professors of the Nucleus of Educational Technology of Rio de Janeiro (NET).

The study proposed here aimed to investigate how the construction of pedagogical knowledge by teachers of vocational education IFSP Campus President Epitácio is held. This is an interpretative descriptive, of phenomenological orientation, characterized as a case study, carried out at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of São Paulo - Campus President Epitácio. It was realized a data collection from the application of the interviews that allowed inferring the professional / educational profile of these teachers and investigate his career; it was held the observation of classes, aiming to highlight the teaching practice. It was also performed the analysis of documents, building the amalgam of the existing theoretical base, with recent research dealing with relevant issues to this study, along with laws, decrees and edicts regulating this type of education. This stage permeated the development of the preceding ones. The collected material was interpreted from the adopted theoretical framework and it was also used the content analysis for this purpose, as categories of analysis there are: the professional profile, the educational profile, the construction of pedagogical knowledge and the management of matter. As a result, we have: pedagogical knowledge characterize the specific knowledge of the professional practice of teaching; They are built by our participants in practice, based on the trial / error; the need for teacher training for action in education is marked by features such as emergency, special and provisional; that its importance is not recognized either by the institution or by teachers themselves; that the practices of these teachers have gaps that deserve reflections for a more effective teaching, and the understanding that the vast majority of participants have on teaching and learning is superficial. / O presente trabalho insere-se na área de concentração: Instituição Educacional e Formação do Educador, especificamente na Linha de Pesquisa Formação e Prática Pedagógica do Profissional Docente, do Programa de Mestrado em Educação da Universidade do Oeste Paulista (Unoeste) em Presidente Prudente – São Paulo. O estudo aqui proposto teve por objetivo investigar como se dá a construção dos saberes pedagógicos pelos professores do ensino profissionalizante do IFSP Campus Presidente Epitácio. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva interpretativa, de orientação fenomenológica, caracterizada como um estudo de caso, realizada no Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo – Campus Presidente Epitácio. Realizou-se a coleta de dados a partir da aplicação das entrevistas que possibilitaram inferir o perfil profissional/pedagógico desses docentes e investigar sobre sua trajetória profissional; realizou-se a observação das aulas, objetivando evidenciar a prática docente. Realizou-se, também, a análise de documentos, construindo a amálgama do embasamento teórico existente, com pesquisas recentes, que tratam das questões pertinentes ao presente estudo, juntamente com leis, decretos e editais que regulamentam esta modalidade de ensino. Esta etapa permeou o desenvolvimento das anteriores. O material coletado foi interpretado a partir do marco teórico adotado e foi utilizada também a análise de conteúdo para esse fim, como categorias de análises tem-se: o perfil profissional, o perfil pedagógico, a construção dos saberes pedagógicos e a gestão da matéria. Como resultados, tem-se: saberes pedagógicos caracterizam o saber específico do exercício profissional da docência; são construídos por nossos participantes na prática, baseados no ensaio/erro; que a necessidade de formação pedagógica para a atuação na educação profissional é marcada por características como emergencial, especial e provisória; que sua importância não é reconhecida, nem pela instituição, nem pelos próprios docentes; que as práticas desses docentes apresentam lacunas que merecem reflexões para uma docência mais eficiente, e que a compreensão que a grande maioria dos participantes possui sobre ensino e aprendizagem é superficial.

The thesis carries out a critical examination of the problematic and complex dynamics aroused by the conceptual gap between the Modernity and Tradition, suggesting that such polarization is present in the way people think and talk about sex and sexuality in Kenya. Considering the difficulties of implementing Comprehensive Sexuality Education in Kenyan secondary schools, the study questions the possibility of isolating and distancing different sexual values and attitudes, and supports instead the need for a different approach to teaching sexuality, capable of bridging those differences through an inclusive language. Digital Platforms are critically examined as potential spaces for the realization of the theoretical project of an “Ecology of knowledges”, thus as places for developing respectful and comprehensive dialogue about sexuality among adolescents.

Abstract How do we cope with technology today? We are surrounded by machines, computers and technological devices from mobile phones to automated check- outs. These types of machines are no longer exotic in Sweden where today the average person is usually fluent in their use. But do we really have an understanding of how these objects work, is understanding necessary and how do we cope when our knowledge is lacking? This thesis is intended as an introduction to an anthropological way of look- ing at strategies people develop for understanding, using and interacting with technological objects, specifically robots. Still an exotic object, robots are more widely known-about than experienced. Based on ethnographic data, primarily gathered in two distinct workplace environments as well as interviews and video documentation, my analysis aims to illustrate the implications of defining hu- mans and robots as equally significant agents within networks whilst disputing the traditional importance given to the dichotomy of technology (non-human) and human. Whilst robots are definitely less than we expect them to be, they are still so- cial artefacts, firmly situated within social networks and meaning which manifest through human–robot interactions. Perhaps little more than tools, an ambigu- ity exists in human–robot interactions which suggests that we form quasi-social relations that could, and have been exploited by designers and engineers to broaden the range of use for technological objects. Keywords: human-robot interaction, network theory, situated knowledges, agential realism, performativity, social contextualisation of technological objects

This study explores how futures studies could engage with critical feminist perspectives in an intrinsic manner and what feminist futures might mean. The study brings attention to the less discussed subject of epistemological basis in futures studies. Literature study and semi-structured interviews with practitioners and researchers working with feminist approaches in the fields related to futures development was deployed. I’ve analyzed Wendell Bell’s discussion on epistemological foundation of futures studies from feminist epistemological perspective, and have suggested the potential of feminist epistemology of situated knowledges and partial objectivity for futures studies. Based on the findings from the semi-structured interviews, an alternative feminist scenario set in Swedish society in the year of 2050 in the format of a fiction is presented with the aim to provide a detailed and situated narrative of political and daily lives in feminist futures. The feminist futures scenario should not be understood as the singular feminist future suggested for implementation. The intention is to demonstrate how the visionary dimensions of feminist studies could be articulated in various forms of futures studies, and to open up space for rich debates on envisioning feminist futures. / Denna studie utforskar hur framtidsstudier skulle kunna anta ett kritiskt feministiskt perspektiv på ett djuplodande sätt och vad feministiska framtider skulle kunna innebära. Litteraturstudier och semistrukturerade intervjuer med utövare och forskare som arbetar med feministiska tillvägagångssätt inom fält relaterade till framtidsutveckling har genomförts. Jag har analyserat Wendell Bells diskussion om den epistemologiska grunden för framtidsstudier utifrån ett feministiskt epistemologiskt perspektiv, och har föreslagit feministisk epistemologi om situerad kunskap och partiell objektivitet som potentiell epistemologi för framtidsstudier. Utifrån fynden i de semistrukturerade intervjuerna presenteras ett alternativt feministiskt scenario för ett svenskt samhälle år 2050 i ett fiktivt format med syftet att ge ett detaljerat och situerat narrativ om det politiska och dagliga livet inom feministiska framtider. Det feministiska framtidsscenariot bör inte läsas som den enda feministiska framtiden avsedd för implementering. Avsikten är att visa hur feministiska studiers visionära dimensioner kan uttryckas på olika sätt i framtidsstudier och ge utrymme för en bred debatt om hur feministiska framtider kan gestaltas.
