Cette thèse est une contribution à l’étude des relations de parenté inuit. Elle présente une ethnographie et une analyse des pratiques relationnelles contemporaines dans le village arctique de Sanikiluaq (Nunavut). Elle vise plus particulièrement à comprendre le processus de production, de pratique et d’interruption du lien de parenté dans une communauté travaillée par le contexte sociohistorique des sociétés inuit canadiennes du début du 21e siècle ; elle met ainsi en regard le contexte historique de l’archipel des îles Belcher, les enjeux électifs travaillant les pratiques relationnelles contemporaines et les identités relationnelles de leurs acteurs pour accéder à une compréhension du sens de la parenté inuit refusant de postuler la flexibilité de l’organisation sociale comme une réponse culturelle satisfaisante à la question de la nature de la parenté.Sur le fond du contexte historique ayant déterminé la formation récente du village de Sanikiluaq, la première partie (chapitres 2 et 3) retrace les évolutions des pratiques relationnelles au cours du 20e siècle et s’attache à identifier les principaux enjeux déterminant aujourd’hui l’élection parentale. La deuxième partie (chapitres 4 et 5) est consacrée à une ethnographie et à une analyse de la fabrique des parentés dans neuf fratries qikirtamiut (i.e. des îles Belcher) contemporaines ; elle travaille le rapport entre les enjeux électifs contemporains, la production du lien de parenté et le vécu effectif de la relation autour des trois registres d’appartenance parentale structurant les pratiques et les théories culturelles concernées : la généalogie, l’identité et le quotidien. La troisième et dernière partie (chapitres 6 et 7) poursuit l’analyse dans des lieux et des milieux mobilisant l’image de la personne et de la relation pour produire, dire et pratiquer le lien. Elle aborde les pratiques relationnelles sur les sites Internet de réseaux sociaux, l’utilisation des photographies de famille, ainsi que plusieurs catégories de marquage qui, du tatouage au dessin, participent de pratiques d’identification impliquant l’identité ontologique à la base de la relation de parenté. La thèse propose ainsi une approche de la parenté inuit articulant processus électifs, pratiques relationnelles et productions symboliques dans le contexte arctique du début du 21e siècle. / This doctoral dissertation is a contribution to the study of Inuit kinship. It presents an ethnography and analysis of contemporary kinship practices in the Arctic village of Sanikiluaq (Nunavut). The specific aim is to understand how kinship ties are produced, practised, and severed in a community that historically and socially has much in common with other Canadian Inuit societies of the early 21st century. The text thus covers the history of the Belcher Islands, the strategies currently used to establish kinship ties, and the kin identities of the people involved. The aim, here, is to understand the meaning of Inuit kinship without having to fall back on the flexibility of social organization to provide a satisfactory answer.After describing the historical backdrop to the recent formation of the village of Sanikiluaq, the first part (chapters 2 and 3) retraces the development of kinship practices during the 20th century and identifies the main strategies behind present-day kinship choices, e.g., choosing a mate, a godmother, a godfather, or a namesake for a newborn child. The second part (chapters 4 and 5) provides an ethnography and analysis of kinship choices in nine groups of siblings who are contemporary Qikirtamiut (i.e., Inuit of the Belcher Islands). It addresses how kinship strategies, production of kinship ties, and the actual kinship experience interrelate in terms of three factors that structure the practices and cultural theories under discussion: genealogy, identity, and daily life. The third and last part (chapters 6 and 7) pursues this analysis in places and settings where images of oneself and one’s kin group are used as means to produce, convey, and practise kinship. Topics include kinship practices on social networking websites, use of family photos, and several categories of tagging, which range from tattooing to drawing, that help people to identify themselves to others via the ontological identity that underlies their kinship ties. In sum, this dissertation describes Inuit kinship by showing how strategy processes, day-to-day practices, and forms of symbolic production relate to each other in the Arctic of the early 21st century.

L'objectif de notre recherche est de tenter d'identifier les compétences professionnelles (Altet, 1996 et 2009) acquises ou en cours d'acquisition des maîtres novices durant leur année de stagiarisation (visée heuristique). Pour ce faire, nous nous inscrivons dans le paradigme écologique ou paradigme de la complexité (Clanet, 1997 ; Piot, 2014). Nous portons un intérêt particulier à l'acquisition des compétences liées à trois dimensions clés que sont la gestion du temps, la tâche et les interactions maîtres-élèves, dimensions étudiées notamment par les chercheurs intégrés au réseau OPEN (Observation des pratiques enseignantes). Nous postulons que le développement professionnel (Wittorski & Briquet-Duhazé, 2010), initié en début de carrière, est variable selon les novices et que cette variabilité est interdépendante du degré de maîtrise des compétences attachées à ces dimensions. Le niveau d'expérience constituant un axe majeur de notre recherche, nous opposerons dans une approche contrastive, l'enseignant stagiaire à l'enseignant expérimenté, évoluant dans des situations similaires. Si nous avons pour ambition de déceler des différences entre les stagiaires en formation professionnelle (variabilité inter-maîtres), nous visons également l'identification des « invariances qui dénotent la présence d'organisateurs des pratiques » (Clanet, 2001). Nous nous efforçons donc de repérer parmi les pratiques enseignantes mobilisées, les organisateurs des pratiques typiques des maîtres « novices ». Pour ce faire, nous recourons à des méthodes mixtes, quantitative (questionnaires) et qualitative (observations et entretiens). Les questionnaires portent sur le niveau de maîtrise des compétences attendues (Référentiel de compétences, 2013) et sur les difficultés potentielles des futurs maîtres. La population enquêtée concerne les stagiaires eux-mêmes (N=178) ainsi que les maîtres d'accueil temporaire (MAT) (N=83) qui les accompagnent. Dans un second temps sont confrontés les deux corpus de représentations pour en évaluer le degré de congruence. Centrées sur trois dimensions organisatrices précédemment déclinées (Clanet, 2010), les observations portent sur six trinômes d'enseignants (un MAT et deux stagiaires N=18) œuvrant dans des classes de cycle III. Nous prenons appui sur la dimension tâche, afin d'analyser les dimensions transversales temps et interactions. Plus précisément, les étapes communes, mises en évidence au sein de séances portant sur la résolution de problèmes – et partant la tâche donnée à l'élève – sont analysées via la gestion du temps et des interactions. Dans une perspective ergonomique (Leplat, 2000), nous mesurons enfin, à travers ces observations et des entretiens, l'écart entre tâche « prescrite » et tâche « effective ». Les premiers résultats nous ont permis de dégager une typologie déclinant trois profils dominants parmi les maîtres stagiaires. En outre, il semble que s'agissant de l'enseignement des mathématiques à l'école élémentaire, les stagiaires rencontrent certaines difficultés communes, caractéristiques des premiers pas dans le métier. Pour autant, l'opposition initiale entre pratiques des stagiaires et pratiques des maîtres expérimentés laisse place à un continuum intégrant la complexité des pratiques d'enseignement donnant lieu à de multiples déclinaisons. Au regard de l'analyse des résultats, la formation initiale des futurs professeurs des écoles pourrait être questionnée dans le but d'en améliorer la qualité via un processus réflexif. / The aim of our research is to try to identify the professional competences that have been acquired or are being acquired by new teachers during their training year (heuristic objective). To do so, we are following an ecological or complex paradigm (Clanet, 1997; Piot, 2014). We are particularly interested in the acquisition of competences related to three key notions such as time control, task, teacher-pupil interactions, that are studied by researchers integrated in the OPEN network (Observation des pratiques enseignantes). We presume that the professional development (Wittorski & Briquet-Duhazé, 2010), initiated at the beginning of a career, varies according to people and that this variability is interdependent of the level of these notions' competence mastering. The experience level is a major axis in our study; in a contrastive study, we shall oppose the trainee to the experienced teacher that are working in similar situations. If we aim to find out differences between professional trainees (Inter-trainee varaibility), we also claim to identify « invariabilities that show the presence of practice organisers » (Clanet, 2001). We try to identify typical beginner teacher organisers among teaching practice that are set up. To do so, we use mixed, quantitative (questionnaires) and qualitative (observation and interviews) methodologies. Questionnaires are about the mastering level of expected competences (Competence official list, 2013) and about the potential difficulties met by future teachers. People in the survey are trainees (N=178) as well as their temporary trainee supervisers (MAT: N=83). Eventually, the two representation studies are compared in order to assess their similarities. Six groups of three persons (a superviser and two trainees) in cycle 3 classes are being observed according to the three previously defined notions (Clanet, 2010). We focus on the notion of « task » in order to analyse the cross notions time and interactions. Common steps that are seen during lessons dealing with problem solving activities- and consequently tasks given to pupils- are analysed through time control and interactions. In an ergonomic perspective (Lepalt, 2000), we measure the gap between a « given » and an « effective » task through observation and interviews. The first results allow us to find out a typology of three main profiles among trainees. Moreover, in maths teaching at primary level, trainees meet similar obstacles that are common to beginners. The initial opposition between training and experienced teachers is replaced by a continuum which integrates complex teaching practice leading to multiple consequences. Through the result analysis, initial primary teacher training could be questioned in order to improve its quality, thanks to a reflexive process.

Thesis (MPH.) -- University of Limpopo, 2015 / Background: The revised Infant and Young Child Feeding Policy (IYCFP) 2013 encourages HIV-positive mothers to also exclusively breastfeed for six months, and to continue breastfeeding for a year with introduction of appropriate complementary feeding, while their children receive antiretroviral treatment. The aim of this study was to determine knowledge and practices of the Primary Health Care Workers (PHCWs) related to the implementation of the revised IYCFP 2013 in the Blouberg Municipality of Capricorn District, Limpopo Province. Methods: A quantitative descriptive study was conducted on 103 PHCWs. The questionnaire was closed ended. The questionnaire was developed based on the contents of the revised IYCFP 2013. A simple random sampling technique was used to sample nurses irrespective of the category. Data were analyzed through SPSS Software v23.0. Results: Most participants were females (91.3%), category were Professional Nurses (44.7%), aged between 31 and 40 years (44.7%) and also mostly worked for >10 years (56.3%). The results revealed that 97.1% of the participants have good knowledge about infant and young child feeding, 68% of participants were not trained on the revised IYCFP 2013, resulting to only 32% of participants having a good practice of this policy. Also 44.7% of the participants reported that they were not aware if clinics had a copy of this policy. The results further revealed that 92.2% of the participants reported that clinics still receive, keep and issue infant formula to HIV positive mothers, which maybe the reason the dieticians still receive requests for Infant Formulas to be delivered to HIV-positive mothers. Conclusion: There is a need for monitoring and evaluation to ensure availability and vi implementation of the revised IYCFP 2013; and also the need for in-service training on this policy in order to improve the capacity to implement the revised IYCFP 2013. Key Concepts Revised IYCFP 2013; knowledge; practice; implementation; PHCWs; infant and young child feeding.

A Contabilidade, na qualidade de Ciência voltada à administração e a economia, envolve, a um tempo, um valor específico e uma prática abrangente, na medida em que tem por função orientar, controlar e registrar eventos econômicos proporcionando informações para a tomada de decisões. Esse conceito exige, portanto, dos seus profissionais, uma visão sistêmica, holística e interdisciplinar, que lhes possibilite um desempenho de qualidade. No entanto, as estratégias de ensino utilizadas, ainda hoje, têm priorizando os aspectos operacionais da Contabilidade, em detrimento da sua capacidade informativa, que implica necessariamente juízo de valor. Visando contribuir para dotar o ensino da Contabilidade Geral em nível de 3º grau de um instrumento de aproximação entre a teoria e a prática que reflita melhor a realidade das empresas e suas necessidades das informações contábeis para a tomada de decisões, esta pesquisa objetiva a apresentação de um simulador de transações, em forma de jogo, aplicado ao ensino da Contabilidade Geral. Por meio da pesquisa-ação, desenvolve-se a modelagem de um simulador de transações, em forma de jogo, desdobrando analiticamente a tomada de decisão num processo de planejamento, execução e controle, valendo-se para isso da teoria dos jogos, levando o aprendiz a tomar decisões e fazer julgamento de valor. Ao elaborarmos um simulador de transações e aplicá-lo em sala de aula, a nossa contribuição reside não na estratégia em si, mas, antes, no processo de comunicação, motivando o aluno a participar de uma situação simulada. Importa, sobretudo, a representação, ou seja, a ficção que obriga a trabalhar não apenas tendo em vista o real, mas aquilo que tem a aparência de real, e que possibilita o interesse do jogo para o aluno. Conclui-se da pesquisa que o uso do simulador de transações, em forma de jogo, estimula e favorece o aprendizado dos conteúdos propostos pela disciplina de Contabilidade Geral, proporcionando ao aprendiz a visão abrangente desejada. / Accountancy as a Science oriented to management and economy involves at the same time an specific value and more encompassing practices based on the purpose to guide, control and record economic events providing information for decision making. This concept demands, however, a systemic, holistic and interdisciplinary view from professionals to achieve high quality performance. Nevertheless, teaching strategies used both in the past and today have prioritized the operational aspects of Accountancy to the detriment of its informative ability which involves a judgment of value. The goal of this study is to help in providing an instrument that can bring together theory and practice in the teaching of General Accounting Level 3 that better expresses business reality and the needs of accountable information for decision making. In addition to the presentation of a simulator of business transactions as a game applied to the teaching of General Accounting. This model representation of business transactions as a game will be developed by means of action-research. This game will analytically unfold the decision making during the planning, performance and control of a process using the theory of games and leading the learners to make decisions and judge values. The key factor of this representation of business transactions and its application in class will not be the strategy itself, but the communication process. It will encourage the students to participate in a simulated situation. All in all, the key aspect is the role play, or in other words, the fiction that encourages the work not only having real facts, but also with the representation of real-life situation and this will increase students interest in the game. The final conclusion of this study is that the use of a simulator of business transactions as a game encourages and favors the learning process of the subjects proposed by General Accounting, therefore providing the students with the desirable comprehensive view.

Este trabalho, fruto de uma iniciativa de mestrado profissional, combinou pesquisa científica com arte literária, especialmente com o romance Ensaio Sobre a Cegueira, de José Saramago. O objetivo desta pesquisa: elaborar um ensaio baseado em um processo de argumentação para pensar a minha formação em saúde a partir de diferentes experiências. Para desenvolvê-lo, uso o seguinte argumento: as minhas experiências no Programa de Educação pelo Trabalho para a Saúde (PET-Saúde) são um diferencial na minha formação em Educação Física. Para demonstrar a validade desse argumento, levantei premissas e discorri sobre elas a fim de concluir esse processo de argumentação. São elas: (1) diversificação do cenário de ensino-aprendizagem; (2) aproximação de estudantes com o ambiente de trabalho; (3) vivência interprofissional com vistas ao exercício da integralidade; (4) abertura para outros modos de pensar o corpo na formação em Educação Física. A propósito das experiências dos participantes da pesquisa, foi feito um encontro no qual conduzi duas atividades: narrativas individuais escritas e roda de conversa nos moldes de um grupo focal. Como resultado, apresento experiências de integração ensino-serviço de estudantes de Educação Física na atenção primária/atenção básica em saúde a partir do PET-Saúde no Projeto da USP-Capital, versão de 2010-2012. A partir delas, destacamos que houve mudanças nos modos de pensar e de operar as práticas de saúde, além de transformar o profissional a ponto de ele se interessar e defender o SUS como espaço de trabalho. É interessante enfatizar que as experiências produziram o que denomino gestos, movimentos que poderão inspirar ou instigar estudantes e profissionais da saúde na reflexão a respeito da formação. / This work results of a professional master\'s initiative and combined scientific research with literary art, especially the novel Blindness, by José Saramago. The objective of this research: developing a essay based on a argumentation process to think about my health trainig from different experiences. To develop it, using the following argument: my experiences in the Programa de Educação pelo Trabalho para a Saúde (PET-Saúde) are an difference in my Physical Education training. To demonstrate the validity of this argument, I raised premises and I discussed about them in order to complete this process of argument. They are: (1) diversification of service-learning scenario; (2) students approach with the work environment; (3) interprofessional experience with a view to the exercise of integrality; (4) openness to other ways of thinking the body in Physical Education training. The purpose of the experiences of research participants, was made a meeting with two activities: written individual narratives and conversation circle like a focus group. As a result, presents experiences of service-learning of Physical Education students in primary care / primary health care from the PET-Saúde Project in the USP-Capital, version 2010-2012. From these, we point out that there have been changes in ways of thinking and operating health practices, beyond transform the professional at way of make him interested in defends the SUS as workspace. It is interesting to emphasize that the experiences have produced what I call gestures, movements that may inspire or instigate students and health professionals in reflection about the training.

This work s goal is to present a discussion about ethic that can be described as coming from the radical behaviourism and pointing the educational principles that should be taught, enhancing the dialogue between the two areas. According to the traditional conception, ethics and moral refer to judgements about what is the good, and the acceptable procedures among a specific group; they are historically resulting concepts, products of autonomic, responsible, rational and free men, who act in a conscious and willing way. The skinnerian ethic system, intrinsic product of radical behaviourism and behaviour analyses, does not need of autonomy, rationality and freedom notions in order to propose the existence of three kinds of goods: personal goods, goods the others and goods for the culture, with the survival value as being the foundation of whole system. Skinner warned that part of planet s population does not know about the serious problems that affect us all and the other part which knows it has not taken relevant measures to change them, especially because the major difficulty is that the future always seems to be in conflict with the present. The education, as a control agency, has the privileged role of planning a culture and the educational policy plans, at the end, the Man and the educational practices. The explicit course of action proposals aims for to overcome the obstacles to culture survival producing. The culture adequate planning, let the person be controlled by circumstances, productive actions, it could take care of maximising behaviours with survival values. To transmit the socially produced accumulated knowledge, to produce the behavioural variability, to minimise immediate consequences and maximising the rare ones, to educate to the self-control, to insert the community into values propositions, to use collective criteria to overrule the individual ones, to re-establish the balanced reciprocity, to educate to the productive laze and amusement, to use the face-to-face control and the soft positives reinforcements, to avoid nasty events, to educate to the environment preservation, to teach social and scientific skills, using the technological control it is what could contribute to the consecution of ethic primary value that radical behaviourists should take as an assumption of their behaviours in any situation that face. / A ética e o ensino da ética foram escolhidos, pela importância e atualidade, como temas privilegiados. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar a discussão sobre ética que pode ser descrita a partir do behaviorismo radical e indicar princípios educacionais que devem ser ensinados, ampliando o diálogo entre as duas áreas. Segundo a concepção tradicional, ética e moral referem-se a julgamentos sobre o que é bem, e condutas aceitas dentro de um determinado grupo; são conceitos historicamente determinados, produtos de homens livres, racionais, responsáveis e autônomos que agem de forma consciente e voluntária. O sistema ético skinneriano, produto intrínseco do behaviorismo radical e da análise do comportamento, prescinde das noções de liberdade, racionalidade e autonomia para propor a existência de três tipos de bens: bens para si, bens para os outros e bens da cultura, com o valor da sobrevivência como sendo o fundante de todo o sistema. Skinner advertiu que parte da população do planeta não sabe dos graves problemas que nos afetam a todos e a parte que sabe não tem feito ações relevantes para alterá-los, especialmente porque a maior dificuldade é que o futuro sempre parece conflitante com o presente. A educação, como uma agência de controle, tem o papel privilegiado de planejar uma cultura e as práticas educativas e a política educacional planeja, no final das contas, o ser humano. As propostas de ação explicitadas visam a superar os obstáculos à produção da sobrevivência da cultura que incluiriam: o planejamento adequado da cultura, e a prática de liberar reforçadores contingentes a ações produtivas, poderiam dar conta de maximizar comportamentos com valor de sobrevivência. Transmitir os conhecimentos acumulados e socialmente produzidos, produzir a variabilidade comportamental, minimizar conseqüências imediatas e maximizar as remotas, educar para o autocontrole, inserir a comunidade na proposição de valores, utilizar critérios coletivos em detrimento dos individuais, restabelecer a reciprocidade balanceada, educar para o lazer produtivo, utilizar-se do controle face-a-face e de reforçadores positivos amenos, evitar eventos aversivos, educar para a preservação do meio físico, ensinar habilidades e conhecimentos científicos e sociais, utilizando-se do controle tecnológico é o que poderia contribuir para a consecução do bem primário da ética que behavioristas radicais deveriam assumir como suposto de seus comportamentos em qualquer situação em que se encontrem.

Through the narrative of the life stories, of semi-structured interviews, among other instruments of mediation, we tried to understand the sense of the speeches of 20 teachers or public and private universities of Fortaleza- Ceará -Brazil, dismissed of pedagogic formation, regarding the origin of their knowledge, ways of being and doing; their conception about how, when and with who they leaned how to teach. We still intend to construct to a theoretical picture on docent knowledge and an illustration of the multiple facets and origin of this. It was our intention also to establish a parallel between the imaginary of the citizens and the socialepistemological theory of Maurice Tardif. We tried to comprehend the sense of the speeches of our collaborators in an active and creative way, following the dialogical and polyphonically perspective of Bakhtin. We understand that the imaginary of these teachers is constituted by a myriad of beliefs, conceptions, values and feelings, instead mutable, dialectical and dynamic. In their set of ideas about knowledge of these teachers have diverse sources and a lot characteristics, witch was identified by the research in individual speeches of the professors of the university. We identified three characteristics of this knowledge: witch the firs is self-learning pratice, witch was based on a gift; or consider as art the knowledge pratice; or in a disciplinal identity witch was consider the knowledge of the subject as primordial. In the imaginary, the collaborators, they judge to have learnt to teach practicing; they also believe that their knowledge are built and rebuilt, , to cross by the voices of relatives, teachers and colleagues with whom they share their life experience through a dialogical relation. They consider also that the knowledge of the subject, as well as their ability of the professional practicing are essential for the exercise of the teaching activity, instead they agree that a knowledge isolated is not enough to forge a good teacher, because this one is made by the conjugation of diverse knowledge, acquired in and by the daily professional work of the teaching job, therefore, through their knowledge of experience, always mediated by the dialog with the diverse people with who they interact in their life and through a spontaneous communicative way, without which the education, the collective job, the cooperation are not possible. Knowing that or not, the teachers of graduation schools perpetuate medieval practices, by experimentation, without the certainty of their efficiency. The way for us, college teachers destitute of pedagogic formation, is to hold the hermeneutic dimension of pedagogy; it’s to develop a pedagogic rationality, a communicative and emancipator competence through a critic reflection of our daily professional work. Knowing that or not this professors had a pratice, an speech and a original pedagogy theory, witch was builded on real teach situation and we believe that should be consider on the educational research. / Abordamos o tema saberes docentes, que está no epicentro das pesquisas internacionais. Através da narrativa das histórias de vida, de entrevistas semi-estruturadas, dentre outros instrumentos de mediação, buscamos entender o sentido do discurso de 20 professores, de universidades públicas e particulares de Fortaleza-Ceará-Brasil, destituídos de formação pedagógica, sobre suas práticas de ensino, modos de ser e fazer; suas concepções sobre como, onde e com quem aprenderam a lecionar. Intentamos ainda construir um quadro teórico sobre o saber docente e uma ilustração das múltiplas facetas e origem desse. Estabelecendo um paralelo entre o enunciado dos sujeitos e a teoria sócio-epistemológica de Maurice Tardif. Procuramos compreender o sentido dos discursos de nossos colaboradores de forma ativa e criativa, segundo a perspectiva dialógica e polifônica de Bakhtin. Depreendemos que o imaginário desses docentes é constituído por uma miríade de crenças, concepções, valores e sentimentos, conquanto mutável, dialético e dinâmico. Em seus ideários os saberes desses professores têm fontes e características diversas, que o estudo identificou de modo fragmentado nas falas individuais dos sujeitos da pesquisa como núcleo duro da docência universitária, embora não reconhecido, assumido e integrado a uma prática docente original e peculiar de cada um deles. Identificamos três características dessa prática de ensino: que a mesma é uma prática autodidata-intuitiva, que se assenta na existência de um dom ou talento especial para o ensino, concebendo-o como arte e numa identidade disciplinar, que considera o conhecimento da matéria lecionada como primordial. Algumas dessas fontes são a família, a escola, a profissão, as interações sociais. Julgam haver aprendido a lecionar na prática; crêem também que seus saberes são construídos e reconstruídos, permeados pelas vozes de familiares, professores e colegas com os quais contataram em suas trajetórias de vida, através de uma relação dialógica. Reputam ainda que os saberes da prática profissional são essenciais ao exercício da atividade docente, conquanto concordem que um saber isoladamente é insuficiente para forjar um bom professor, pois esse se faz na conjugação de diversos saberes, adquiridos na e pela práxis do ofício docente, por conseguinte, através de seus saberes da experiência, sempre mediado pelo diálogo com os sujeitos diversos com os quais interagem em suas trajetórias de vida e através de um agir comunicativo espontâneo, sem o qual a educação, o trabalho coletivo, a cooperação não são possíveis. Um caminho para esses, professores universitários destituídos de formação pedagógica, seria abraçarem a dimensão hermenêutica da pedagogia; seria desenvolverem uma racionalidade pedagógica, uma competência comunicativa e emancipadora através de uma reflexão crítica de suas práxis. Cônscios ou não, os professores do ensino superior são detentores de uma prática, um discurso e uma teoria pedagógica original e própria, constituída a partir de situações reais de ensino em sala de aula, e que acreditamos deve ser considerada na pesquisa educacional.

Para demonstrar a validade desse argumento, levantei premissas e discorri sobre elas a fim de concluir esse processo de argumentação. São elas: (1) diversificação do cenário de ensino-aprendizagem; (2) aproximação de estudantes com o ambiente de trabalho; (3) vivência interprofissional com vistas ao exercício da integralidade; (4) abertura para outros modos de pensar o corpo na formação em Educação Física. A propósito das experiências dos participantes da pesquisa, foi feito um encontro no qual conduzi duas atividades: narrativas individuais escritas e roda de conversa nos moldes de um grupo focal. Como resultado, apresento experiências de integração ensino-serviço de estudantes de Educação Física na atenção primária/atenção básica em saúde a partir do PET-Saúde no Projeto da USP-Capital, versão de 2010-2012. A partir delas, destacamos que houve mudanças nos modos de pensar e de operar as práticas de saúde, além de transformar o profissional a ponto de ele se interessar e defender o SUS como espaço de trabalho. É interessante enfatizar que as experiências produziram o que denomino gestos, movimentos que poderão inspirar ou instigar estudantes e profissionais da saúde na reflexão a respeito da formação. / This work results of a professional master\'s initiative and combined scientific research with literary art, especially the novel Blindness, by José Saramago. The objective of this research: developing a essay based on a argumentation process to think about my health trainig from different experiences. To develop it, using the following argument: my experiences in the Programa de Educação pelo Trabalho para a Saúde (PET-Saúde) are an difference in my Physical Education training.

As a result, presents experiences of service-learning of Physical Education students in primary care / primary health care from the PET-Saúde Project in the USP-Capital, version 2010-2012. From these, we point out that there have been changes in ways of thinking and operating health practices, beyond transform the professional at way of make him interested in defends the SUS as workspace. It is interesting to emphasize that the experiences have produced what I call gestures, movements that may inspire or instigate students and health professionals in reflection about the training.

The boundaries of normative Islam are critically explored in this thesis, which presents a translation of the most important aspects of a modern study on bid‘ah (heretical innovation), by the late Egyptian Reformist Scholar, Shaykh Muhammad al-Ghazālī (1917 – 1996). The translator’s introduction contextualizes the life and work of the author and also briefly locates this particular study within the broader framework of classical and contemporary writings on the subject of bid‘ah. Only the book’s introduction, first three chapters (constituting the theoretical spine of the original work), and conclusion are translated. The first chapter is an introductory excursus into Islamic law, necessary to enable the reader to grasp the legal debate on bid‘ah. The second chapter casts a wider net, examining the influence of foreign elements upon Islamic thought, while the third chapter deals specifically with the topic of bid‘ah. The short conclusion reaffirms the importance of normative Islamic practice. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.A. (Arabic)
