Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) and to correlate functional capacity with quality of life (QoL) of hospitalized octogenarians. Method: A cross-sectional study with 128 patients using the quality of life instruments WHOQOL-OLD and WHOQOL-BREF and the Katz Scale. Results: The majority of patients was fully dependent; patients with higher schooling had less independence; older adults with partial dependence and independence had higher scores in perceived QoL; in the domains of autonomy, past, present and future activities; and better overall QoL than those with full dependence. Partially dependent patients had higher scores in the death and dying domain than independent patients. Conclusion: Older adults’ QoL is associated with the maintenance of autonomy and functional capacity. Older adults experience a health decline during the hospitalization process, due to the limitation in performing their ADL and lack of encouragement by the health team.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the occurrence of violence in the elderly and its associated factors in the city of Betim, Minas Gerais. Method: cross-sectional study constituted by a population survey conducted through structured interviews. The sample was stratified by clusters and included 178 elderly people at the end. Data were analyzed by the chi-square test and was performed a Correspondence Analysis. Results: The most prevalent forms of violence were: lack of access to social rights (31%), verbal violence (22%), moral/psychological (19%), lack of care (16%), physical violence (6%), sexual (3%) and discrimination (3%). Women suffered more abuse than men and violence had greater association with the degree of depressive symptoms. Conclusion: our research has direct implication for the sectors interested in coping with violence in the elderly, especially for nurses, because it shows violence is part of a cycle with characteristic associated factors that conforms a model nested mainly in the family relationship.

Authors: Kletemberg Denise Faucz , Padilha Maria Itayra , Maliska Isabel Alves , Villarinho Mariana Vieira , Costa Roberta
Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the development of the labor market in Gerontological Nursing in Brazil, between 1970 and 1996. Method: a descriptive-qualitative study with a historical approach that uses the oral history of 14 research nurses working in the historical period, based on the ideas of Eliot Freidson. Results: Nursing overcame barriers to change the care practices to elderly people in the period described, considering the lack of a specific labor market; the need for theoretical knowledge for Gerontology care; the scarcity of research and researchers in the field; the emergence of caregivers for elderly people; the construction of multidisciplinarity and the transformation of institutions for a long-term stay. Final considerations: the expansion of the labor market at the time was grounded on advances on the production of knowledge of the aging process, supported by the demographic transition, that determined the increase in the demand by elderly people for health services and the enactment of specific laws protecting this population.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the quality of life related to health for heart failure patients and to relate sociodemographic and clinical data. Method: It is an observational and transversal study, with quantitative approach, carried out in a heart failure ambulatory in the state of Pernambuco. Results: In the sample (n=101), there was prevalence of men older than 60 years old, married and professionally inactive. The quality of life related to health, based on the Minnesota Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire, was considered moderate (34.3±21.6), being significantly related to age (p=0.004), functional class (p<0.001), and patients with chagasic cardiopathy (p=0.02). Conclusion: The quality of life in the HF group of chagasic etiology was more compromised, specially in the emotional dimension. It is suggested that studies on the hypothesis that longer ambulatory follow-up improves quality of life and that having Chagas disease interferes negatively with the quality of life of heart failure patients.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the meaning of sexuality by rural elderly women. Method: a qualitative exploratory and descriptive research, carried out through interview at the home with 26 rural elderly women, aged between 60 and 69 years. The data were analyzed by the thematic content analysis technique of Bardin. Results: understanding sexuality is linked to the construction of sexual and/or loving relationship, and positive and negative factors that interfere with the exercise of sexuality: good relationship with the spouse, physical and mental benefits, chronological age, health problems, no spouse, sexual disinterest and fear of relating for fear or disappointment. Final considerations: there is a decline in the maintenance of sexuality linked to the end of the reproductive period, to the advancing age and the low social perspective that is common for rural elderly women.

ABSTRACT Objective: To synthesize the knowledge produced on best nursing practices in long-term care for elderly at home, in order to promote healthy aging. Method: A systematic review, based on the Joanna Briggs Institute’s proposal: without restriction of dates; in the English, Portuguese and Spanish languages; conducted in PubMed, CINAHL, LILACS, Embase and Scopus databases. Results: Among 453 articles identified, 16 were included in the review: seven qualitative and nine quantitative, published between 1996 and 2015. The synthesis of the data identified as best practices identifies a premise of care centered on the elderly and the inclusion of the elderly, family and nurses as agents of this care. Conclusion: According to evidence, good practices in gerontological and nursing home care fundamentally depend on constant planning and reorganization, so that they are indeed comprehensive and contextualized. Thus, providing care will be reasoned by and driven to the elderly, based on their specific and global needs, favoring a process of healthy and active aging.

ABSTRACT Objective: Analyze the perception of elderly widow women about their health situation. Method: Descriptive and exploratory research, based on qualitative approach performed with 34 widowed women aged 60 years and over, enrolled in primary health care. It was used content analysis in its thematic analysis modality. Results: Three thematic nuclei were obtained: “positive self-perception of health in old age”, “negative understanding of health related to the diseases” and “negative repercussions of the absence of the husband in the health situation of the widows”. Presence of the family, chronic diseases under control, physical limitations and absence of the partner directly influenced the responses of the elderly widows. Final considerations: The elderly widows perceive their health situation as relatively good and some factors are challenges to a better health situation. For the participants, widowhood means more than just the physical loss of the husband, interfering negatively in the perception of their health situation.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To estimate the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome and clusters of its components and to identify possible associated factors in older adults. Method: Cross-sectional and population-based study, involving 271 older people. We collected sociodemographic, behavioral, clinical, biochemical, and anthropometric data. Data were analyzed by descriptive and logistic regression techniques. Results: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 59% and was associated with women, overweight/obesity, and the C-reactive protein. Concerning the clusters, 11.4% of the sample had all the components of the metabolic syndrome, and only 5.2% of individuals did not have any of its components. Conclusion: We found there is a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome and clusters of its components in older adults. It is important to deepen studies on this matter, considering clinical aspects in relation to sex and healthy behavioral habits for creating public policies as well as emphasizing actions aimed at promoting self-care in all cycles of life.

ABSTRACT Objective: To describe relationships between the ECPICID-AVC scale factors and the NANDA-I domains, classes, and Nursing Diagnoses (NDs). Method: Cross-mapping study between the NANDA-I taxonomy and ECPICID-AVC scale was constructed based on the eight ECPICID-AVC scale factors and the 13 NANDA-I domains. A descriptive analysis was performed to present the mapped elements. Results: Areas of similarity and intersection were found between the eight ECPICID-AVC factors and nine NANDA-I domains, 19 classes, and 72 NDs. All scale factors were mapped with the Domain 1/Health Promotion, Class 2/Health Management and the ND “Frail elderly syndrome”. Final considerations: The ECPICID-AVC scale factors were mapped with nine domains, their classes and diagnoses. This study demonstrates the importance of identifying nursing diagnoses and their relationship with factors that evaluate caregiving capacity. The ECPICID-AVC can help nurses generate nursing diagnoses regarding the caregiver’s needs and their capacities related to care to focus such needs.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the life experiences that favor transcendence of the elderly being. Method: a qualitative phenomenological hermeneutic study, in two groups of elderly coexistence. The selection of participants was by intentional sampling: 11 elderly, achieving theoretical saturation. Data collection was carried out through a phenomenological interview with a detonating question. Ethical principles of the General Health Law in health research were fulfilled. Analysis with Heideggerian hermeneutic circle was performed. Results: unity of meaning on the consciousness of a higher power for transcendence is highlighted, where spirituality and religiosity are resources of the elderly for strength, feel protected, overcome difficult situations and reach fullness; both favor the understanding of their historicity by manifesting enlightenment. Final considerations: transcendence of the elderly being is favored with spirituality and the experiences of their daily life are imbued with a spiritual and religious relationship that give meaning to their existence.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the relationship between inadequate functional health literacy and inadequate blood pressure control in older people with hypertension in Primary Health Care. Method: a cross-sectional study with sample calculated at 392. SAHLPA-18 tool was used for functional health literacy; blood pressure was measured; sociodemographic and clinical data were collected. Hierarchical logistic regression was used. Results: (high) inadequate blood pressure and (low) functional inadequate health literacy were present in 41.6% and 54.6% of the people, respectively. Factors associated with inadequate blood pressure were: inadequate functional health literacy, black-brown skin color, overweight-obesity, hypertension diagnosis time, non-adherence to exercise/diet, drug treatment. Schooling had no association with inadequate blood pressure Conclusion: hypertensive elderly people with inadequate health literacy were more likely to have inadequate blood pressure. Thus, health professionals need to value functional health literacy as a possible component to control blood pressure.

Published: December 2019

Abstract Barueiro (Dipteryx alata Vog.), a fruit tree native to the Brazilian cerrado, has aroused the interest of producers and consumers due to its almond highly appraised and valued by local markets. To obtain quality barueiro seedlings, balanced fertilization is required, with special attention to the supply of phosphorus and nitrogen, essential for seedling growth and establishment in the field. The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth of barueiro seedlings produced with different phosphate and nitrogen concentrations in Nova Xavantina – MT. The experiment was conducted at the seedling nursery of the Mato Grosso State University (UNEMAT), Campus of Nova Xavantina - MT, from December 2017 to April 2018. The experimental design was randomized blocks (DBC), in a 5 × 2 factorial scheme, corresponding to 5 phosphorus concentrations and 2 nitrogen concentrations, with 10 treatments, 4 blocks and 10 plants per plot, totalizing 400 seedlings. The applied concentrations were 0, 150, 300, 450 and 600 mg kg-1 P2O5 and 0 and 250 mg kg-1 N. The following variables were evaluated: plant height, plant stem diameter, number of leaves, number of leaflets, fresh and shoot and root dry mass and Dickson’s Quality Index. Significant interaction between phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations for all traits evaluated was observed, except for root dry mass. The greatest growth of barueiro seedlings was obtained when the highest phosphorus concentration (600 mg kg-1de P2O5) was used, associated to nitrogen fertilization of 250 mg kg-1. There was no isolated effect of phosphate fertilization on the growth of barueiro seedlings without nitrogen application.
Peroxidase activity and initial growth of ‘Barbosa’ peach on clonal rootstocks
Authors: Oldoni Chirlene Márcia , Nienow Alexandre Augusto , Schons Jurema , Mayer Newton Alex
Published: December 2019

Abstract In the peach nursery trees production, the use of rootstocks with unknown genetic identity obtained from peach seeds in the canning industry is frequent. The hypothesis tested was that there are rootstocks that express greater graft compatibility, enabling greater survival and growth, and that peroxidase activity can be used as indication of graft incompatibility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival and the peroxidase activity efficiency in identifying graft incompatibility and the trunk diameter growth of ‘Barbosa’ peach grafted onto 18 Prunus clonal rootstocks, propagated by herbaceous cuttings, compared to own-rooted scion trees. The experimental design was three randomized blocks, with one tree per plot. The first three vegetative cycles of trees conducted in double Y (5.0m x 2.0m) without irrigation were evaluated. The highest trunk diameter growth was provided by ‘Okinawa’, ‘Tsukuba-1’, ‘Tsukuba-2’, Mexico F1 and ‘Flordaguard’ rootstocks, without differing from own-rooted ‘Barbosa’ peach. Peroxidase activity differs by rootstock effect at the beginning of the dormancy period, and is higher than in vegetative growth, especially in interspecific graft combinations. Peroxidase activity is a biochemical indicator of stress, but should not be used alone and generalized to characterize graft incompatibility.
Rootstock-scion interaction:6. Phenology, chilling and heat requirements of Cabernet Sauvignon grapevine
Authors: Miele Alberto
Published: December 2019

Abstract The grapevine phenology is dependent on several factors, such as genetics, soil characteristics, climate conditions, pests and diseases and vineyard cultural practices. Among these, grafting may have an effect on the scion behavior due to the influence of the rootstock. Therefore, an experiment was carried out for two years to determine the effect of rootstocks on Cabernet Sauvignon (CS) grapevine phenology, chilling and heat requirements. Treatments consisted of vines grafted on the rootstocks Rupestris du Lot, 101-14 Mgt, 3309 C, 420A Mgt, 5BB K, 161-49 C, SO4, Solferino, 1103 P, 99 R, 110 R, Gravesac, Fercal, Dogridge and Isabel. Budbreak and flowering of the vines, veraison and maturity of the grapes were the phenological stages evaluated, determining the dates of each stage and the number of days between them. The chilling hours (Tbase= 10 °C) for budbreak and the heat summation required to ripen the grapes were also determined. The results showed that the dates of each phenological stage varied according to the year and the rootstock. The average of two years showed that CS/3309 C, CS/161-49 C and CS/101-14 Mgt sprouted earlier and CS/Dogridge later. Grape maturity was earlier on seven CS/rootstocks, where CS/101-14 Mgt and CS/Rupestris du Lot ripened first and CS/Isabel, CS/5BB K and CS/SO4 later. The average intervals between the stages of CS/rootstocks were (in days), 46.8±3.0 (budbreak-flowering), 64.3±2.1 (flowering-veraison), 54.6±6.1 (veraison-maturity) and 165.7±7.4 (budbreak-maturity). In 1998, 615.9±8.0 chill hours were needed to achieve 50% budbreak and in 1999, 870.6±6.5 chill hours, where CS/Dogridge required the highest chilling to break dormancy. In order to ripen the grapes, the heat requirement from budbreak to maturity was 1573.4±43.0 °C in 1998/1999 and 1599.4±25.5 °C in 1999/2000, and the juice total soluble solids values were 19.1 and 18.1 °Brix, respectively. Although the heat summation of the second cycle was 1.65% higher, the total soluble solids were lower due to the rainfall that was much higher during its grape ripening period.

Published: December 2019

Abstract Passiflora cincinnata Mast. or Caatinga passion fruit is widely cultivated in the northeastern semi-arid regions of Goiás, Minas Gerais, and Bahia. The system of cultivation and field management of the Passiflora species affects the physicochemical quality of its fruits. In this study, we evaluated the chemical and physico-chemical characteristics of the fruits of 2 progenies (CPEF2220 and CBAF2334) of P. cincinnata species using the vertical and horizontal trellis system. Fruits were collected from the plants at their physiological maturation stage and tested for the fruit skin color and texture and the pH, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, pulp acidity ratio, and the contents of flavonoids, anthocyanins, and polyphenols in the seedless fruit pulp. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2 x 2 factorial scheme (progenies x conduction system) performed in 3 replications using 4 plants in each. The analysis of variance and the means were compared using the Tukey’s test at 5% probability. The results revealed that the CBAF2334 fruits presented with greener pigments and greater flavonoids. The fruits were characterized by their green color with some yellowish nuances and a low color saturation in both the progenies. The conduction system was not found to affect the physical and physicochemical characteristics as well as the anthocyanin and polyphenol contents of the studied species. The fruits of plants cultivated on vertical trellis presented with 56.73% more flavonoid content than those cultivated on horizontal trellis.

Published: December 2019

RESUMEN: Este artículo analiza la evolución y aplicación de las políticas públicas neoliberales implementadas en la América Latina, con impactos en los sistemas educativos públicos y en el ejercicio del derecho de las personas a la educación. El texto se centra en el desarrollo de políticas en los sectores rurales, con foco en la Educación en el Campo, específicamente en Brasil y Venezuela. Es una investigación cualitativa cuyos datos fueron obtenidos a través de revisión bibliográfica y análisis documental. Tomamos como base los análisis de la legislación en los países citados. Los resultados demostraron que en Venezuela hasta el final del siglo XX el acento de las políticas públicas estuvo afinado en la urbanización del rural, con una educación subordinada a la cultura del petróleo. En el caso de Brasil, la educación para los pueblos del campo, protagonizada por los sujetos campesinos, logró numerosas conquistas desde el punto de vista de las políticas educativas. Sin embargo, carece de enfrentamientos constantes entre la clase obrera y la clase dominante.

O objetivo principal deste trabalho é investigar a política de formação dos profissionais de segurança de Pernambuco. Como metodologia buscou-se o levantamento, nos últimos dez anos, das políticas que envolvem a formação desses profissionais, de forma descritiva bibliográfica, seguida por uma investigação dos dados da atuação e dos reflexos na sociedade, culminando na apresentação dos resultados obtidos. Por fim, podemos concluir que é necessária uma reavaliação da política de formação no âmbito da Educação Corporativa Estadual, especificamente à formação e capacitação dos profissionais de segurança, através de políticas públicas consistentes para formar profissionais reflexivos e serviços de qualidade à Sociedade.
Fontes da educação popular na América Latina: contribuições para uma genealogia de um pensar pedagógico decolonial
Authors: da Mota Neto João Colares , Streck Danilo R.
Published: December 2019

RESUMO Neste artigo, o objetivo é refletir sobre a emergência de um pensamento pedagógico decolonial na América Latina, tomando por base algumas das principais fontes intelectuais da educação popular nesse continente. Ao entender a educação popular como um “acumulado histórico”, que ao longo dos últimos dois séculos vem se afirmando como um movimento de resistência e um discurso pedagógico em favor dos setores populares, traz-se para debate as contribuições intelectuais do brasileiro Paulo Freire (1921-1997) e do colombiano Orlando Fals Borda (1925-2008). Defende-se a ideia de que a educação popular, em sua trajetória histórica, vem contribuindo significativamente para a emergência de uma pedagogia decolonial, capaz de resistir à subalternização dos conhecimentos e das experiências de sujeitos sociais marginalizados pela modernidade/colonialidade.
Socialização, profissionalização e trabalho de professores iniciantes
Authors: Almeida Maria Isabel de , Pimenta Selma Garrido , Fusari José Cerchi
Published: December 2019

RESUMO O presente artigo tem como ponto de partida a indagação acerca de como os modos de inserção profissional de professores iniciantes repercutem na vida desses profissionais. Para buscar respostas a essa indagação, investigou-se as formas como se processa a inserção de licenciados egressos de uma universidade pública como professores nos sistemas escolares públicos do estado de São Paulo. Foram entrevistados 20 professores iniciantes, de distintas áreas de conhecimento que estavam atuando em escolas públicas nos primeiros cinco anos após a formatura. Tomou-se como categorias de análise socialização profissional, profissionalização docente e trabalho docente. O texto busca compreender as formas de ingresso no magistério, o aprender da profissão, relação com os parceiros de trabalho, formas de aproximação com o ambiente profissional, inserção em escolas do sistema público, condições de exercício da docência, motivação para ingresso e permanência na profissão, dificuldades e expectativas quanto ao futuro profissional. Os dados qualitativos, obtidos nas entrevistas semiestruturadas, foram analisados na confluência com a literatura sobre o tema e à luz da concepção crítico-dialética, o que permitiu evidenciar a complexidade e as contradições dos processos de socialização e profissionalização, bem como do trabalho docente.

Um estudo exploratório das tensões nos critérios de seleção de problemas em professores do Ensino Fundamental
Authors: Piñeiro Juan Luis , Ortiz Claudia Vásquez
Published: December 2019

RESUMO A resolução de problemas é considerada central na aprendizagem e no ensino da matemática escolar. Sua implementação nas salas de aula, no entanto, tem sido elusiva e difícil. Um dos fatores identificados como responsáveis foram as concepções dos professores sobre o processo de resolução de problemas, nos quais são valorizados e relacionados ao desenvolvimento do pensamento, ao mesmo tempo em que seu ensino é processualizado. Esse entendimento influenciará a seleção de problemas que o professor faz. Sendo este um papel crítico para a sua implementação bem-sucedida, neste trabalho pretendemos investigar as tensões existentes nos critérios de seleção utilizados pelos professores do Ensino Fundamental do Chile. Construímos e aplicamos um questionário aberto aos participantes de um workshop voluntário sobre a seleção de problemas matemáticos. A análise de suas respostas por meio de uma análise de conteúdo revela que esses professores manifestam concepções objetivistas, utilitárias e humanistas sobre os problemas. Neles é possível identificar as tensões Say/Grow e Security/Challenge e outro par que amplia a visão sobre as tensões que podem emergir no contexto escolar. Conclui-se que as diferentes perspectivas sobre os conceitos promovem tensões na seleção de problemas relacionados com a forma como se dirige a classe, a relação entre o professor e o sistema escolar e entre o professor e a resolução de problemas.
Avaliação da alfabetização gráfica de professores da Educação Básica em formação e em exercício

RESUMO Este artigo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa descritiva transversal realizada em uma universidade do centro-sul do Chile, na qual participam professores do Ensino Fundamental em formação e ativos, sobre representações gráficas por causa do papel que desempenham no processo de ensino e aprendizagem desde o primeiro ano do ensino básico no currículo escolar chileno. Para a coleta de informações foi aplicado um instrumento validado estatisticamente pelos autores no qual se obteve uma confiabilidade (alpha de Cronbach) de 0,78 que permitiu avaliar as habilidades de codificação e decodificação de informações quantitativas resumidas em representações gráficas univariadas e bivariadas, utilizando a taxonomia de Kimura (1999), cuja introdução no nível do sistema escolar geraria as habilidades exigidas pelo currículo nacional. Os resultados mostram que, em geral, os professores em formação e ativos têm percentuais médios elevados na capacidade básica de leitura de informações univariadas, resumidos em polígonos de frequência simples. No entanto, os percentuais diminuem para 61,3% nos futuros professores e para 50% nos docentes ativos por ser um histograma, representação amplamente utilizada para mostrar a distribuição de informações quantitativas em qualquer curso de estatística em nível nacional e internacional. Esses resultados, novidade no contexto chileno, permitem observar professores em formação e ativos não desenvolveram suficientemente a capacidade de realizar uma leitura conjunta de duas variáveis quantitativas resumidas por meio de uma representação gráfica, exigindo inovação em processos instrucionais que garantem uma melhoria no aprendizado.
Professores uruguaios confrontados com a implementação da Plataforma de Adaptação Matemática para aprender e ensinar Matemática
Authors: Testa Yacir , Téllez Liliana Suárez
Published: December 2019

RESUMO Apresentamos uma pesquisa quali-quantitativa cujo objetivo é investigar como os professores enfrentam a implementação da Plataforma Adaptativa de Matemática (PAM) para aprender e ensinar matemática. Conforme Chrysostomou e Mousoulides (2009), para que as mudanças na reforma educacional prosperem, é necessário levar em conta as crenças e preocupações dos professores uruguaios sobre a PAM. O instrumento desta pesquisa foi uma enquete online respondida por 105 professores de forma voluntária. Os resultados mostram que os professores atribuem valor positivo à PAM, que o tipo de uso que fazem dela coloca em ação as características que a definem, e que a diferenciam de outras ferramentas; tais como em sua adaptabilidade, a sua capacidade de personalizar os processos de ensino e aprendizagem, a autonomia do aluno, o feedback imediato que dá ao aluno e ao professor, os diferentes relatórios.
A interpretação dos resultados: um elemento de significado para inferência estatística
Authors: Vera Osmar
Published: December 2019

RESUMO Em dois problemas de resposta aberta, onde um teste de hipótese e uma análise de variância elementar são modelados, analisamos as respostas de (N = 224) estudantes de psicologia da Universidade de Huelva, Espanha, em relação ao significado alcançado pelos alunos na interpretação dos resultados. Uma vez resolvidos, eles foram solicitados a interpretar os resultados em termos do problema. Utilizamos a abordagem ontosemiótica da cognição matemática como referencial teórico. Como parte do referencial, consideramos os objetos matemáticos, os processos envolvidos e os resultados, a fim de descobrir conflitos semióticos que levam a respostas institucionalmente inadequadas. Apresentamos uma classificação detalhada dos conflitos semióticos que emergem da análise das tarefas realizadas pelos estudantes.

Estudo de documentos curriculares prescritos: (de)compondo uma metodologia de investigação
Authors: Tavares Silva Fabiany de Cássia , Fernandes Christiane Caetano Martins
Published: December 2019

RESUMO Este texto expõe os procedimentos metodológicos utilizados em um Programa de Pesquisa que realiza análises sobre documentos curriculares prescritos, também conhecidos como parâmetros, orientações, diretrizes, referenciais, programas e/ou planos, produzidos por redes de ensino estaduais e/ou municipais. Os procedimentos são baseados em uma versão do método de comparação intitulada “estudos comparados”, que suporta outra representação ou outro design qualitativo de comparação, cruzando as áreas de educação comparada, história da educação e sociologia. As fontes de investigação selecionadas são dissertações e teses. De um lado, por constituir expressão de poder simbólico, de dados de enunciação, de fazer ver e crer, de confirmar ou de transformar os conteúdos do ‘mundo curricular’. De outro, por disponibilizar um ‘conhecimento poderoso’, validado pela crença da/na legitimidade das escolhas e de quem as legitima, crença cuja produção torna relevante os estudos acadêmicos sobre documentos curriculares prescritos. E, por fim, porque a produção de análises sobre documentos curriculares e a produção de dissertações e teses são algumas das ações do Programa.
