This dissertation examined the meanings and contours that planning made in the educational policies context targeted by the federal government in the 2003-2010 period, based on the analysis of the guidelines to preparation of the Plano de Ações Articuladas (Joint Action Plan). We performed a careful treatment of proposed government programs presented by the then candidate Luis Inácio Lula da Silva at the time of placing the economic, social and political context in which his government inserted the educational policies in the aforementioned period. This procedure made it possible to situate the planning in the conduct of public policy when it drew more clearly the basis for a \"new developmentalism\" as a model of development at Brazil. In the second moment, we discus about the educational policies implemented by facing the social, political and economic processes federal government, this approach became central to the implementation of the Plano de Desenvolvimento da Educação (Development Plan for Education, 2007) and the signing of the Compromisso Todos Pela Educação (All for Education Commitment) which linked the planning education through the development of the Plano de Desenvolvimento da Educação. Finally, the guidelines that shape the Plano de Ações Articuladas development were problematized, which was made on the categories planning, hybridity and regulation to an understanding of recent changes in the management of Brazilian basic education. The analysis developed inferences that the social project and the state role in the first decade of the XXI century has undergone a recomposition process of the power in national state through the recovery of his power , which was done by strengthening its regulatory capacity in ideological, political and socioeconomic levels. In this context we conclude that the regulatory approach taken by the state found in educational planning conditions to effect the coordinated decentralization, monitoring, managing and measuring the evolution of goals, important for the establishment of the responsibility assumed by the local micro-regulation strategies by condition sustainable management in the managerial conception of the state.

This work, was carried out in the Graduation in Education Program of the Uberlândia Federal University. It aims to investigate the contributions of the Introduction to Biology Teaching - Scholarship Institutional Program for the political formation of Biology teacher. The research is committed to the Materialistic-historic-dialectic perspective which guides epistemologically this study and makes use of technical procedures for the collection of data: Documental analysis, state of art about PIBID s articles and interviews with. Contradictions were aised in the textual mapping and grouped in categories for the preparation of the synthesis of ideas, contextualizing them to the theory. The analysis involved three steps after the collection of interviews data: pre-analysis, exploration of material and interpretation. The PIBID program has a potential to catalyze group debates about the teaching profession, but shows weakness on the sociopolitical fellows formation of the pibidianos. Much of the program of discussion and debate continues playing without addressing the productive system, towards a formation based on the instrumentalization of the teaching practice that aims to improve the teaching-learning process disconnected from the history of the reality. It is possible to notice that the fellows are formed to accept the working conditions of the teaching profession, an exercise in a constant precarization process. Nevertheless, the fellows received instructions to have the function of play contents to the formation of students. The absence of studies in the several areas of the teacher development makes it impossible to understand the morphology of the work and ends up forming disabled and unilateral professionals, which transforms the job of a professor as a mere classroom acting. The formation of a teacher is mainly understood as the accumulation of teaching techniques, proposal of innovative lessons, and constant updating with new technologies, causing a false sensation that education is being put in a transforming perspective. The fellows do not adhere to a philosophical framework, keeping their practices anchored to an epistemic eclecticism, what keeps them away from a political understanding of own formation. The inclusion of the fellows in the school environment empowers the glimpse of the contradictions in the world of work. However, the school experiences do not guarantee an education that articulates the whole and the parts, and the parts of the whole in the teacher development. The PIBID is a project with potential for reflexive maturation concerning the teacher s work because it penetrates the school environment and inserts the fellows there, even partly, into the world work.

This study is included in the Education in Science and Mathematics line, in Mastership Course, Education Post-Graduate Program in Federal University of Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil. It is a research which aimed to analyze the animation film Dr. Seuss' The Lorax in order to understand which cultural issues are put into circulation from the environmental approach. We used as methodological inspiration the qualitative approach, which authorized us to find ways of representing reality and we also used the decoupage technique to better understand the movie and, as a consequence, better apprehend meanings produced by it. We analyzed it from the cultural approach, because this line includes the most varied spheres of human experience and their transformations, considering the current context and singularities. Therefore, we seek to understand in what way the cinema, more specifically the animated film artifact, according to cultural studies method, materializes social culture, act as a knowledge producer and builds important meanings in the formation of historical, social and cultural subjects. The film analysis allowed us to perceive that subjects, society and nature are symbolized in the it by the way the characters are presented in the story and how they set their own figurations, as well how the main tools are used in building the cultural subject. The research relevance focuses on the breakdown of using the film only as entertainment, because it allows us a more conscious access to our inner life and, consequently, with our own learning, so it is a pedagogic dispositive that leverages new knowledge. Therefore vision is not merely a skill but a cultural construction that learns and teaches within the social practices, forming identities.

This research is part of the Research Line State, Policy and Management Education, having as main theme the Programa Nacional de Integração da Educação Profissional com a Educação Básica na Modalidade de Jovens e Adultos (Proeja) and its implementation at the Penitentiary of Uberaba. The objective was to analyze and understand the political foundations, historical and social program as well as its limits and possibilities for the formation of the inmates of that prison unit. The study adopted the epistemological founding the historical and dialectical materialism, constituting of a bibliographical and documentary research, qualitative. For the development of the survey were analyzed books, theses, dissertations, research papers and official documents of public policies related to education and youth and adult. They also analyzed documents relating to Proeja available at participating institutions of research, such as Pedagogical Projects, Work Plans, Worksheets Budgets and Expenditures, among others. They were held ten semi-structured interviews, whose subjects were prisoners who participated in the Proeja since 2009 to 2012 and then the local coordinator of the program in the meantime. Our analysis led us to conclude that, despite the comprehensive education discourse that permeates Proeja policy, the integration between basic education and vocational education at the Penitentiary of Uberaba was not achieved at all, because, among other things, structural issues society, the historical association between professional and precarious work and the organization of the prison system.

This study aims to analyze the processes of formation and professional development of university teachers, participants in continuous training activities, with regard to understanding the pedagogical practice. The questions that guided the research were: To participate in training activities and professional development, which the understanding of university teachers regarding their teaching? This problem, other questions arise: What knowledge is constructed by academics who participate in training activities? What are the contributions of the training activities for the development of professional identity of professors? The research subjects were the teachers who work in various areas of knowledge, participants of training actions provided by the Division of Teacher Education of the UFU. The research was based mainly by the following authors:Behrens, Cruz, Imbernón, Pimenta, Masetto, Marcelo Garcia, Nóvoa, Tardif and Vasconcelos. It is a qualitative study, the type action research. Data were obtained through interviews recorded with the participation of teachers in training activities, questionnaires and interviews. Action research consisted understanding of strategy, analysis and diagnosis of reality as it presents possibilities of, to understand reality, their problems and challenges, study concrete ways to modify it. The results indicated that teachers who attended the continuing education courses could understand and revise their beliefs and professional attitudes, build and rebuild knowledge and teaching identity. Thus, it was evident the need to promote training activities for academic staff, with a view to their full professional development and the improvement of their teaching practices, to highlight: the conceptions of education, public policy, planning, classroom organization, teacher-student relationship, education technologies, teaching methodologies, assessment, among other things present in the universe of teaching. In this sense, it is clear the need to establish a training culture as well as the consolidation of institutional policies of teacher professional development at the University. The consolidation of fruitful areas of continuing education that prioritize collective work, exchange of experiences and pedagogical support aimed at improving the teaching work directly reflects the socially referenced improving the quality of higher education.

This study aims to analyze how the official guidelines for early childhood education were implemented in Patos de Minas in the period 1996 to 2010. The incorporation of early childhood education to basic education through the Law of Basic Guidelinesfor Education (known as LDBEN in Brazil) LDBEN 9.394/1996 set responsibilities for the municipalities and demanded actions directly related to early childhood education, such as the organization and expansion of services, the professional training, and the integration of child care to the educational system. We sought to understand the implementation of policies for early childhood education from the macro concept to the institutional action, in the micro context. We historically contextualized early childhood education from the concepts of childhood, children and their institutionalization as well as the policies regarding this segment. Herein, the role of multilateral organizations in the formulation of early childhood education in Brazil the Federal Constitution of 1988 (referendum for the right of early childhood education) and the legislations arising from the LDBEN are focused. Besides, historical and political aspects are described as a means to understand the implementation of childhood education policies. Analyses carried out on the documents issued by the Ministry of Education and by the Municipal Secretariat of Education of Patos de Minas along with an interview with managers and childhood educators belonging to Municipal Centers of Childhood Education, allowed us to conclude that the implementation of policies concerning childhood education (whether it has actually happened) has not been satisfactory when it comes to valuing this educational segment.

La presente investigación examina el periódico O Kró, pequeño informativo que circuló en Caldas Novas GO durante el período del Estado Novo . Través de ese periódico fue posible delinear las estructuras que estaban en formación en la ciudad de Caldas Novas, la forma como la educación sirvió a los intereses del poder local y su contribución para el proyecto pensado por los Coronéis das Águas . Los factores que van a proporcionar este cambio, por cierto, tendrán como uno de sus pilares las nuevas direcciones de Brasil en el pos -1930. Los años de la era Vargas o del Estado Novo , influirían totalmente para la formación política de la nación, el rompimiento de las hegemonías de la política café-com-leite y la introducción de los nuevos políticos en el escenario nacional. El mundo en la década de 30 sufre con la crisi, el caída de la Bolsa de New York y los partidos totalitaristas fascismo y nazismo crean matices diferenciadas a la nueva geopolítica mundial. Y Brasil, de la misma forma, no saldrá incólume de este proceso por la instauración de un populismo. Goiás, en el contexto nacional, tenia poca o ninguna representación, existía una precariedad en las comunicaciones entre este estado y los otros, solamente en 1913 fue implantada la primera ferrovía y la primera estrada asfáltica surgió solamente en 1921. Dentro del período del gobierno provisorio (1930 a 1934) fue creada por Pedro Ludovico la ciudad de Goiânia, esta creación hace parte de los planos de interiorización de Vargas. ¿Como sucede el proceso de formación político-social de la región de las Águas Quentes y la vocación para el láser y, después, para el turismo del municipio de Caldas Novas? ¿Cómo pasa la historia de la prensa y cómo ella fue utilizada en la ciudad? ¿Cómo fue implementada la educación formal y de que modo ella fue utilizada en la elaboración del proyecto de implantación de una estancia termal. Al final, el periódico O Kró descortinará las representaciones locales, desnudando sus moradores y ofrecendo una relectura y una revista a Caldas Novas de aquel período. La ciudad, su matiz, sus escuelas y el grupo escolar con sus modelos pedagógicos. Fueran eses elementos que nortearan el corpus de esa pesquisa, contemplando la necesaria comprensión historiográfica del período.

This research approaches the journalistic work, understanding it from the perspective of immaterial labor and as a producer of stuff in the Culture Industry, understood in its structural place in capitalist society. We discuss journalism and professionals in this area of activity on the development of this society and its relations with the common knowledge in dialogue with the world of life and the world of work. We also reflect on the knowledge that permeates the profession, related to professional culture and expectations of different actors interested in propagation of journalistic information, such as the State and the market. We argue that the way to produce this information, based on all kinds of information that circulate in society is sustained on a model of journalism that was consolidated by the development of capitalism. We intend to show how the product of this activity, the news - in addition to being itself the subjective interpretation of the producer, based on the immediate, fragmented and reified reality -, is constituted from the contradiction between different interests on this information, the limits imposed by the routine production, a specific parameter of social importance and validity, which is historical and social, from the requirements of the consumer market and others. We pointed out that some of these contradictions can be identified in the National Curriculum Guidelines for the degree courses in Journalism, established by the Ministry of Education in 2013, through a critical analysis of this document. The Guidelines, besides indicating another journalism relation with knowledge, this time, academic, refers to the formalization by the State of journalism professional requirements to meet the general demands and accomplish their social role. The Guidelines refer to the result of disputes over the legitimacy and recognition of the profession throughout history, which is based on a specific proposal of what should be the journalist and the news because of the needs of capitalism, of its society and its typical conflicts. All these discussions are made dialectically and the proposals and theoretical concepts are not separated from the method and are constituted in the development of all research.

This research proposes to investigate the actions of the Joint Action Plan (RAP) designed for inclusive and special education, the focus of this research. Thus aims to identify and analyze the actions of the Joint Action Plan aimed at special education in inclusive and intended for continuing teacher training perspective to act in the processes of schooling for people with disabilities, pervasive developmental disorders and high ability / gifted both in the regular classroom as the Educational Service Specializing in Uberlândia-MG, in the period 2008-2013. The research took as the research universe of Uberlândia-MG, covering Municipal Education and a public school. Regarding the methodological procedures, elect: a) documentary aimed to examine the national and the Department of Municipal Education official documents research, seeking information on Joint Action Plan on municipal actions aimed at training teachers to work in Special Education; b) content analysis to analyze the data collected through semi-structured interviews. The results obtained in this study indicate that: a) the PAR is presented as a planning tool that brought the educational management of SME experience to diagnose the reality of municipal education, from dimensions, areas and indicators in detail exposes the advances and shortcomings present in the school structure; b) by the terms of cooperation between the Union and the municipality, this policy brought a process of co-responsibility between federal agencies, with technical and financial support from the federal government in some actions and other actions, the council takes running alone; c) many actions planned in PAR as their sole responsibility the council can not be executed due to lack of financial resources; d) the PAR focuses on actions to continuing education of teachers who work in the ESA, this focus excluding other teachers who work in schools serving the target audience of the Special Education students; e) many demands of the school investigated were not included in the actions of PAR, raising the questioning about the coherence of actions foreseen in the PAR and the municipality experienced real needs in school and felt by its professionals; f) the PAR, according to the perceptions of school personnel investigated, failed to break with the tradition of many educational policies proposed by central agencies that do not consider the different subjects involved, as is the case of teachers, putting them in position mere executors of policy decisions and actions unknown to them.

Teacher training processes, initial and continuing, and professional practice of teachers who teach Mathematics in the early years are highlighted in the literature as complex, but also are regarded as the way to overcome many difficulties in teaching this component curriculum in the school stage in question. The aim of the study was to investigate how the training needs in Mathematics are represented by a group of teachers in the early years of elementary school of public health system of the city of Uberlândia, State of Minas Gerais. The research, qualitative approach, had as object of study the training needs, in Mathematics, of teachers in the early years. The research involved 16 teachers from two schools in the municipal public schools of that city. Data were collected through questionnaires, non-participant observations, semi-structured interviews followed by group and individual. Analyses were performed by means of thematic categories, founded by content analysis. Data interpretation allowed to understand training needs in mathematics that are presented to the collaborating group from their professional practice, considering the knowledge and skills necessary to teaching. It is understood that the teachers of the study group have major limitations in relation to the specific content and didactic knowledge of Mathematics content, however, the concern is that demonstrated not always being aware of it. Moreover, the difficulties experienced in teaching practice proven to be overcome by sources and non-formal training activities, primarily through more experienced colleagues in the profession. Thus, it becomes difficult to think the initial and continuing training courses for teachers without the training needs of the teaching practice is appreciated as an object of study.

This research intended to investigate Social Representations of Science teachers working at 5th-8th grades in what regards the Scientific Method (MC) and the effects of those representations in their educational practices. The methodological theoretical referential used was that of the Social Representations, in the Moscovician perspective. For Moscovici and followers, in order to know the Social Representations of a group, one must identify the group, its symbolic content and in what specific context it is inserted. In order to formulate and present data, we used the three Jodelet s questionings: who are the subjects, what they know and with which effects. The instruments used for the research were questionnaires and interviews. Analyzing the subjects representations we verified some incoherence in their answers, both in the questionnaires when they were asked to take a position in relation to some statements which were sometimes constructivists and other times traditional , and in the interviews, when they verbalized their representations. The analysis of the instruments, although with some incoherence, it points out a prevalence of constructivist representations. In relation to the effects that those representations cause on the subjects practices, we concluded that this happens in part. We also verified that MC experience in the subjects lives was insignificant, both in the Basic and in the Initial and Continued Education, what can explain the difficulty of viability of that methodology in their educational practices. In general the teachers evaluate as advantageous the use of that methodology in the teaching of Sciences, justifying that they don t use it due to some operational difficulties and even due to education. We hope that this work can contribute to those that worry about the teachers of Sciences education.

This research presents a brief study about the influence of advertisements in the civilizing process in Uberabinha city, today Uberlândia, localized in Triângulo Mineiro.

The results preliminary data indicate that teachers love what they do and intend to do a good job, but by the need to teach at more than one school, the lack of time to prepare lessons, the lack of conditions to perform quality its activities; in addition to the work overload and lack of salary incentives, there is a great motivation to teaching.

This research aimed to map the bids called Cultural Policies of Zaire Rezende s government held in the period from 1983 to 1988 in the city of Uberlândia/MG. The initial idea was to collect materials that would enable mapping out the bids that gave subsidies to the development of cultural policies, especially those related to reading incentive. This is a research conveyed the line of history and historiography of education. The specific objectives were: to identify how the cultural policy of Zaire Rezende s government towards reading have been implemented and how they arrived to low-income population; to identify and interview which were the subjects responsible for implementing government reading policies of Zaire Rezende; to investigate in which circumstances the reopening of the Municipal Library \"Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira\" took place, in that same government. It is a qualitative research whose methodology was based on the genre of Thematic Oral History, and used interviews with five people who worked at the Municipal Department of Culture as well as in the Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira Municipal Public Library in the first term of the office of the Zaire Rezende s government of 1983-1988, as it was also performed a documental and bibliographic research with trips to the Municipal Public Archives of Uberlândia and the Municipal Public Library.

In all narratives it was noted the strong desire to make it happen of the employees, as well as this poor population who wished for improvements, especially those related to reading.

This work is part of the research process undertaken by the Postgraduate Studies in Education Program (PPGED) at the Federal University of Uberlandia (UFU) related to the State, Policy and Management Education research line (EPGE). It inquiries about the understanding of the official documents and how they present the relationship between citizenship and education, developing a theoretical reflection up the concept of citizenship and, also, a survey of the inchoate (or not) about this concept in the Brazilian legal provisions, starting by the 1988 Federal Constitution, the National Education Bases and Guidelines Law No. 9394/96, the National Basic Education Curriculum Guidelines and specifically the National Secondary Education Curriculum Guidelines. The emphasis in Secondary Education is due to the condition of this is the last stage from the basic education, being a defining moment for the compliance of the legal provisions about quality education expressed in the guidelines as a nation project concepts. In this sense, it is analyzed the possibilities and challenges of public policies about education in relation to the construction of citizenship at school and its relationship to the state, society, democracy and participation. To this end, a basic education school was inserted in the context of analysis, and documents, such as the Political Pedagogical Project and the teacher s secondary education course plans have been used as a source of collecting data as an attempt to identify, in the documents of the school, the relationship between citizenship and educational processes. The metodology adopted to implement the research was the document analysis, starting with the official documents in order to link this research to the study of the institution\'s own documents. The research has been organized from the national policy taken from the 1990s, considering the issue of democracy and the implementation of national curriculum guidelines. Finally, we present considerations about the official documents analysis, particularly the National Secondary Education Curriculum Guidelines, raising relevant issues presented in the pedagogical proposal of the school and the teachers\' course plans, and being possible to verify the principles and purposes of the documents forms built up in the school pedagogical practice.

This work is part of a process of investigation made with the Post-Graduation Education Program of UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE UBERLANDIA, in the research line of State, Politician and Education Management. The main purpose is analyze the guidelines and make the School Boards stronger, with good proposals , and study your implementation in public schools in the city of Uberlandia while democratization mechanisms through the creation and execution from the categories participation, democratic governance and citizenship. The research starts questioning educational problems of creation and fortification School Boards, this Counsel guide the practice and analyze the viability to effect these proposals. The methodological approach of this work traces back the process of elaboration and implementation of Counsel of School for the democratization of school management that supports in theoretical productions already made about the object. We analyze the implementation of Counsel of School in six schools of city Uberlandia in 2014 and 2015, we done a qualitative approach employing the use of documentary research, in the national, state and local sphere. The research shows the way of how the educational system is organized, the conditions of work that are offered to professionals in Brazil culture, among other factors, the acting of School Boards cannot accomplish all the responsibilities that the regulatory context predict. The conclusion of this work shows that School Boards contribute to the democratization management and for exercise citizenship, but there is no warranty of this practice, because everything depends of other mechanisms of participation and the interests of all involved sectors.

This work is part of the research of the Master s Degree in Education program from the Federal University of Uberlândia/MG and has as its primary objective to know, analyze and register the paths taken in the construction of the Nossa Senhora do Amparo high school, built in the city of Monte Carmelo, in the year of 1939 under the direction of the Franciscan Sisters of Nossa Senhora do Amparo, paying special attention to the issue of feminine education. This research is set between the tears of 1939 and 1973, taking into consideration that, in the 70 s, the Normal Course curriculum received the subjects of the then called Scientific Course, as a consequence of the alterations brought forth by Law 5.692/71 of the 1º and 2º degree education reform, after which it became known as Normal High School. This approach will be made by highlighting the macro history context in which this catholic confessional school inserts itself, allowing therefore the possibility of thinking of it as an educational space where women students and nuns re-create unique and multiple ways of thinking and behaviors, among the appropriations that highlight peculiar and relevant hues for the historical construction of Brazilian education. The theoretical-methodological support for this research was obtained in the propositions of the New Cultural History, under the perspective of the approaches proposed by Roger Chartier, seeing as possible to think history from the point of view of social representations, which articulate themselves as mechanisms forged in the interior of relations permeated by clashes, in the practice of social subjects who manifest themselves in the acceptance/re-elaboration or rejection/resistance to the roles which are in many ways imposed or offered as adequate or convenient. By interviewing the big and the little , it is intended to rescue the details of a history that is built between signals and readings of a past that always provokes a new look, a new path along the ways of historical research of Brazilian education.
