This study was conducted to characterize the morphology of rumen protozoa isolated in the batch type hydrolysis of sweet sorghum using 1% fresh carabao rumen fluid with duration of 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days of the novel process hydrolysis. Hydrolysis was conducted using 5% chopped sweet sorghum bagasse. Nitrogen content was augmented with 0.35 g urea per 750 ml effective volume with low speed agitation of fermentation bottle at least 20 minutes twice daily and incubated at room temperature. Characterization was limited to microscopic evaluation of the morphological features of protozoa that was stained with methylene blue formalin saline solution. Protozoon population of 2.61 x 10 4 cfu/ml at initial period had significantly lowered down at the 15 days hydrolysis to 0.62 x 104 cfu/ml. Evaluation of morphology for the types of protozoa at different durations showed the predominance of species types with different orientations of caudal spines, shapes of the macromolecules, size of the body, and presence of adoral ciliary zones were features of species types from genus Eodinium Entodinium of the family Ophryoscolecidae. Evaluation of the hydrolysis condition showed that duration had significant effect on the pH (P>0.05). Sweet sorghum hydrolysis has initial pH 7 that significantly declined to pH 5 at 15 days duration. The population of the protozoa in the rumen fluid hydrolysis was significantly affected by duration of the hydrolysis (P>0.05). Entodinium were isolated at all durations of the acidic hydrolysis of sweet sorghum bagasse using carabao rumen fluid. In conclusion, morphological characteristics of the rumen protozoan shows how diverse are the composition of rumen protozoa in the carabao rumen fluid hydrolysis. The presence of the rumen protozoa is a justification of the novel carabao rumen fluid hydrolysis conversion of lignocelluloses in sweet sorghum bagasse into soluble carbohydrates for bioethanol production. The information is vital for animal feed utilization and bioethanol production optimization.

Penerjemahan Struktur Informasi Subtitle Film Bahasa Prancis “Le Grand Voyage” dalam Bahasa Indonesia
Authors: Sajarwa
Published: October 2022

Sebagai sarana komunikasi, bahasa sangat beragam dan berbeda-beda di setiap wilayah. Bahasa yang digunakan mencerminkan pola pikir penuturnya. Salah satu cara untuk mengetahui perbedaan pola pikir tersebut adalah melalui analisis penataan informasi dalam wacana. Penataan informasi meliputi status informasi (informasi lama dan informasi baru) dan urgensi informasi (informasi penting dan kurang penting). Penelitian ini menggunakan data film Le Grand Voyage ‘Perjalanan Agung’. Metode análisis yang digunakan adalah deskriptif-komparatif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pada kalimat bahasa Prancis yang mengedepankan pelaku  dengan pola IL+IB maka hampir dipastikan pada kalimat terjemahan bahasa Indonesia juga mengedepankan pelaku dengan pola sama, yaitu IL+IB. Akan tetapi apabila pada bahasa Prancis mengedepankan keadaan yang menimpa pengalam, maka pada terjemahan bahasa Indonesia menjadi terbalik yaitu pengalam yang dikedepankan kemudian diikuti oleh keadaan.

What are the Drivers of Constitutional Change in Turkey?
Authors: Şahbaz Özge Korkmaz
Published: October 2022

This paper explores the reasons for the last constitutional reform in Turkey. This paper argues that the strong Presidency in the 1982 constitution and 2007 amendments paved the way for the presidential reform in Turkey and the internal fragmentation and weakening tutelage of the military opened a window for institutional change. The power of Erdogan for mobilization of masses and the strong personalization of power around him provided a resource for the last constitutional reform. The failed coup attempt on 15 July 2016 triggered the regime change. The study was conducted by employing the method of causal process tracing and the theory of windows of opportunity as well as different approaches of path-dependence. This paper contributes to the literature by exploring the reasons for the institutional change by considering its historical and political context.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Hyun-Sook , Park Doo-Hyun
Published: October 2022

Objectives The purpose of this study is to introduce an educational method for primary school students to develop context-oriented real English communication skills through process drama based on primary English textbook. Methods A fairy tale(Peter pan) for process drama activities was extracted by analyzing English textbook for primary school 3rd grade of publishing D. In addition, a model for process drama education was developed by referring to the models of Kao & O’Neill(1998) and Ellis(1988). Results Based on the process drama model developed in this study, two lesson plans were constructed using the fairy tale ‘Peter pan’ from the 3rd grade English textbook of publishing D. Additionally, various process drama activities(Pre-text, Mime, Improvisation, Teacher in role, Writing in role, Still image & Thought tracking, Hot seating) were introduced based on the context through the fairy tale(Peter pan) by composing three stages of Preparation Phase, Drama Scenes, and Reflective Phase for each lesson. Conclusions To develop primary school students' real English communication skills, it is necessary to move away from mechanical and formal memorization practice, and to provide context-based and real communication-oriented education through process drama education. In order for process drama education to be successful, teachers must break free from authoritarian attitudes and open education that can negotiate meaning with students must be supported.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Eunhyun , Park HyeRim
Published: October 2022

Objectives This study is to examine the effects of multicultural pre-service teacher training for the integration of multicultural and English education. It aims to study how intensive teacher training affects teaching strategies utilizing multicultural children’s literature and teachers’ multicultural attitude. It also investigates positive and negative factors in applying what they have learned from teacher training to educational contexts. Methods Mixed methods of quantitative and qualitative research methods were adopted. Attitude toward ract/ethnic diversity, multicultural understanding and attitude, English reading and writing ability were analyzed by utilizing SPSS/PC+ 21.0, and teaching journals, work samples, and interview data were also examined through phenomenological research method. Results The findings of quantitative data analysis using t-test showed that multicultural education using children’s literature positively affected both teachers’ and students’ multicultural attitude. The differences were statistically significant. Through the teacher training, per-service teachers could understand how to utilize multicultural children’s literature using culturally responsive pedagogy and how to integrate English and multicultural education. In the teaching contexts, using multicultural picture books had positive impacts on understanding diverse cultures, and positively affected students’ English reading and writing ability. Engaging with multicultural picture books gave students the opportunities to actively participate in the lessons. On the other hand, there were cases where students won’t accept different perspectives about other cultures. Some pre-service teachers also pointed out that meeting with multicultural students in the real world would be integrated into the teacher education program. Conclusions This study addressed not only the positive impacts of teacher training on implementing English and multicultural education utilizing multicultural children’s literature, but also challenges in implementing multicultural education in educational contexts.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Sang Ok , Lee Jung Gun
Published: October 2022

Objectives In this study, it was checked whether parental empathy affects elementary school students' self-determination learning motivation through parenting attitude as a medium. And in this influence, the moderating effect of elementary school students' basic psychological needs was analyzed. Methods A survey was conducted with 600 students and their parents in grades 3 to 6 of elementary school. As suggested by Muller, Judd, and Yzerbyt (2005), the mediating effect, the moderating effect, and the regulated mediating effect were sequentially analyzed. Results Parents' cognitive empathy was found to be mediated by parenting attitudes and affect children's self- determination learning motivation, and this mediating effect was found to be controlled by relationship among sub-factors of children's basic psychological needs. Conclusions Negative parenting attitude partially mediated the effect of cognitive empathy on self-determination learning motivation. This means that parental empathy not only directly positively affects self-determination learning motivation, but also indirectly negatively affects it through negative parenting attitudes. In addition, relation among children's basic psychological needs means that the negative effects of negative parenting attitudes on self-determination learning motivation through indirect paths can be mitigated.

Published: October 2022

Physalis minima (PM) belongs to the family Solanaceae. PM has been traditionally used to cure and prevent several disorders as documented in Vedic Texts. Nevertheless, scientific values of traditional claims haven't been explored yet. In the previous study, GCMS analysis of P. minima ethanolic leaf extracts (PMELE) indicated the presence of Cyclobutanol (C4H8O); D-Alanine (C3H7O2N); 2-Heptanol, 6-Amino-2-Methyl (C8H19ON); 1-Pentanol, 4-Amino (C5H13NO); Benzeneethanamine, 3-Fluoro-Beta.,5-Dihydroxy-N-Methyl (C9H12FNO2) and L-Alanine, N-(N-Acetylglycyl)-, Butyl Ester (C11H20N2O4). However, biological activities of these bioactive compounds are not known which hampers the exploitation of these compounds by pharma-industries on a commercial scale. This study on ADMET, Pharmacokinetics, Drug-likeness and Medicinal Chemistry of Bioactive Compounds in PMELE aims to provide baseline information on PBNPs as a potential source of natural lead molecules for next generation drug design, development and therapeutics.

Hypertension screening of commercial divers from an occupational medicine perspective
Authors:   University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Galveston, Texas U.S, Garbino Alejandro , Sanders Robert W , Mathers Charles H
Published: October 2022

Hypertension is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world: in the United States, it affects one-third of the adult population. Most cases are primary hypertension – with no identified cause – and significantly increase risk for cardiovascular disease and stroke. At NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL), there is a cadre of professional divers who provide underwater support during extravehicular activity training (EVAs, commonly referred to as “spacewalks”) for astronauts. The NBL occupational health program requires regular “work-site” physical exams, including blood pressure checks, on at least a weekly basis. Although some blood pressures measured during such regular checks were elevated, the diagnosis and management of blood pressure was outside the scope of that occupational medicine program. As a result, there was no protocol to analyze and manage asymptomatic elevated blood pressure if and when it warranted physician follow-up. We therefore analyzed the blood pressure data from all divers in 2015, vetted the worksite physical and developed a referral pathway to ensure divers have access to effective management of their blood pressure while minimizing impact of such a program on daily operations.
Novel compact waveguide filtering twist for CNC machining
Authors: Zhang Yi , Shang Xiaobang , Xu Jun , Guo Yuewei , Duan Lei , Lu Xiao
Published: October 2022

In this letter, we present a novel compact waveguide filtering twist
that can be readily fabricated from metal using the computer numerical
control (CNC) machining process. This filtering twist is comprised of
four coupled resonators which are rotationally deformed to provide the
desired 90-degree twist. Such resonator structures eliminate the use of
curved features and therefore are ideally suitable for conventional CNC
machining. The proposed design offers appealing advantages including
great compactness, easy fabrication, and good scalability to
millimetre-wave and terahertz frequencies. The design is demonstrated at
X-band and has a fourth-order Chebyshev filter response (bandwidth 0.4
GHz, centred at 10 GHz). The good agreement between simulation and
measurement results validates the proposed concept.
All-hardware acceleration for binocular vision 3D positioning system
Authors: Yin Chengbin , Wu Xiaosheng
Published: October 2022

Traditionally, stereo vision was mainly based on FPGA+CPU method, which
was limited by lower computing capability of CPU. An innovative
all-hardware acceleration solution of stereo vision is proposed for
positioning application, in which image acquisition, caching,
preprocessing and 3D positioning modules are all implemented in FPGA. A
novel median filter for image preprocessing is proposed to match higher
clock frequency. A complex 3D positioning algorithm is given to simplify
the process without reasonable reduction in operation accuracy, which
makes the system more conducive to implement in FPGA. The experiments
show that the all-hardware acceleration solution has outstanding
advantages in computing speed, power consumption and response time
compared with the traditional FPGA+CPU one.
Bipolarized characteristics of ranging behaviour in sedentary Sika deer on Kyushu Island, Japan
Authors: Morimura Naruki , Ohba Takahiro , Yasuda Masatoshi
Published: October 2022

Ranging behaviour is a fundamental characteristic of wild animal
movement. Recent studies have shown that movement propensity can easily
vary between migrant and resident tactics in various herbivorous
mammals. Understanding the flexibility of ranging behaviour as an
adjustment to changing environmental conditions under natural and
anthropogenic processes provides deep insights into the ecology,
management, and conservation of herbivores. Animal movement based on
locations can be described in the form of a matrix of time and days,
representing the continuous and discrete variables of ranging behaviour
time scales. The matrix yields two independent structural
characteristics of animal location distributions: the day range and the
time-of-day range. These ranges are multi-dimensional variables that
enable the quantification of the extent of spatiotemporal location
variation by eliminating the influence of the absolute value of the
range size. Sika deer (Cervus nippon) is a cervid species that exhibits
diverse and flexible ranging behaviour. The present study aimed to apply
new indices to a GPS dataset of the movements of 46 individuals to
conduct a structural analysis of ranging behaviour. Learning and memory
play important roles in movement and habitat selection. We analysed the
visiting frequency and interval to clarify whether sedentary Sika deer
utilise their ranges monotonously. The ratio of the time-of-day range to
the day range only succeeded at detecting the structural modifications
of range shifting, while the largest distance among time-series pairs of
GPS locations and the maximum size of the day range did not correspond
identically to the range-shift period. An analysis of revisits
illuminated behavioural similarity between sedentary and range-shifting
individuals in terms of their qualitative experience with local
travelling. The findings of the present study suggest a species-specific
characteristic of bipolarized space-use tactics, potentially leading to
high behavioural flexibility in the Sika deer on Kyushu Island.
The first documented interaction between a long-tailed weasel (Mustela frenata) and a plains spotted skunk (Spilogale interrupta) carcass

Published: October 2022

A novel interaction between a long-tailed weasel (Mustela frenata) and a
plains spotted skunk (Spilogale interrupta) carcass is detailed. In
November 2020, a farmer in Edmunds County in north-central South Dakota
sent in a video recording of a long-tailed weasel with a spotted skunk
carcass. Location of the event, carcass condition, and recorded behavior
of the long-tailed weasel offers probable, but unconfirmed, evidence
that the spotted skunk was killed by the long-tailed weasel.
Post-synthesis modification of metal-organic framework-bedded lipases proved efficient in the solvent-free system
Authors: Ji Yuan , Gao Wanning , Sohail Muhammad , zhang xing , Lin Lei
Published: October 2022

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely used as carriers in
bio-catalysis. However, the micropores of the MOFs usually decrease the
activity of bio-catalysts in the solvent-free and viscous reaction
system. Herein, we report a post-modification method with adjustable
apertures to reduce the mass transfer resistance in the described
reaction system. The defected lipase-MOF composites (CRL@dZIF-90),
synthesized by the post-modification method, can efficiently catalyze
the esterification reactions in the solvent-free systems to synthesize
phytosterol esters, including stigmasterol oleate, stigmasterol
linoleate, stigmasterol linolenic ester, and stigmasterol octanoate. The
CRL@dZIF-90 demonstrated comparable activity to the free CRL with
reusability and enhanced stability, validating that post-modification of
the MOFs is a potential way to boost the activity of enzyme@MOF
biocomposite in the solvent-free system, and might be applicable in the
industries in the future
Harnessing Ethical AI Surveillance for Climate Change Governmentality
Authors: Herrera-Vega Eliana
Published: October 2022

Achieving sustainability in respect to the natural environment necessitates a changing paradigm in climate’s governmentality, as to discipline complex modalities of techno-social agency that underlie the current climate crisis. From a transdisciplinary approach, the analysis recalls the science of climate change with the existing frame of international law (hard and soft law), analyzing the conditions for the accountability of organizations (Nations and corporations) in the production of anthropogenic emissions. Organizations are deciphered as complex techno-social systems of communication responding to reflexivity, feature that precludes them from understanding natural environment limitations. Reflexivity triggers carbon lock-in, a special form of path dependency at the base of the current schism between knowledge, intention, and actions.  Reflexivity threatens long-term sustainability while endangering life and social systems. Artificial Intelligence can help overcome reflexivity, only if AI is restrained by an ethical approach constructed by the protection of human rights, the notion of environmental stewardship and the sustainability goals. Idealized ethical AI needs to take the form of hard law regulation.

Published: October 2022

Os escritos textuais fazem referência a uma pesquisa de estágio pós-doutoral do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal do Ceará, Área de Concentração Educação Brasileira. Objetivou-se compreender implicações sociais e pedagógicas do isolamento social na vida de mulheres professoras do Ensino Médio Integrado do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Ceará (IFCE) Campus Canindé no contexto da pandemia do coronavírus. A submissão das mulheres pela naturalização biológica e social advém da imposição cultural por gerações. Esta problemática agravou-se ainda mais no período de isolamento social. Cada vez mais dentro de casa, as mulheres foram sobrecarregadas de atividades. Marcadores teórico-metodológicos aferiram que as mulheres precisam conhecer o sistema social e cultural que as fazem submergir. Urge a mobilização de mulheres com potencial político de articulação para a desconstrução opressora e desmistificação das conexões sociais e culturais do aprisionamento feminino; propostas afirmativas, com ações compensatórias focadas nas diferenças desiguais devem ser efetivadas para o alcance da igualdade de gênero.

De abordagem qualitativa, assentado no método da pesquisa-formação, teve como objetivo compreender os conflitos e as interações presentes no desenvolvimento da formação continuada de professores de língua estrangeira do Centro Cearense de Idiomas (CCI). Para tal estudo foram analisadas as características, os planos e as ações desenvolvidas pela Secretaria da Educação do Ceará (SEDUC-CE) e pelo próprio CCI no que toca à formação continuada de seus docentes. Os resultados revelam que refletir a formação com os pares é uma boa perspectiva de encontro com a realidade; os docentes precisam de políticas públicas de formação que os ajudem a ressignificar seu percurso formativo e não obstáculos que já cercam a profissão docente de forma tão negativa e muitas vezes quase intransponíveis; o trabalho coletivo se apresentou como uma possibilidade para a superação dos desafios.

Este texto apresenta uma pesquisa que teve como objetivo central investigar se os cursos ofertados pela Coordenadoria de Formação Docente e Educação a Distância CODED/CED, da Secretaria de Educação do Estado do Ceará, no ano de 2020, contribuíram para o fortalecimento da prática docente com o ensino remoto. Na mesma perspectiva, intencionou identificar os principais desafios encontrados pela CODED/CED para a efetivação dos cursos e formações no período da pandemia causada pela COVID-19 com os professores da rede estadual de ensino do Ceará. O trabalho se referiu a uma pesquisa de caráter qualitativo. Para a produção dos dados, destacaram-se o questionário (composto por questões abertas) desenvolvido com quatro profissionais da educação que atuam na CODED/CED e a análise documental. Como conclusão, salienta-se que o trabalho promovido pela CODED/CED, ao longo do ano de 2020, foi fundamental no sentido de contribuir para o fortalecimento do trabalho docente para com o uso das tecnologias digitais e o ensino remoto. Como desafios, pontuaram-se: a) o tempo para as atividades de formação; b) a ausência de adesão por parte de alguns professores da educação básica; e c) a infraestrutura, algumas vezes, inadequada, entre outros.

A Educação de Jovens e Adultos é uma modalidade de ensino que carrega marcas identitárias específicas, relacionadas ao público a que se destina, cujas histórias são atravessadas por processos de exclusão diversos. No Ceará, os Centros de Educação de Jovens e Adultos – CEJA se configuram como importantes espaços formativos para a população pouco ou não escolarizada, com idade superior a 15 anos de idade, e como espaço de defesa do direito à educação. O cotidiano desses centros, em decorrência da Pandemia de Covid-19, teve suas formas de funcionamento afetadas. O presente estudo, de abordagem qualitativa, objetiva identificar, através de entrevistas realizadas junto a professores, os limites e possibilidades das estratégias desenvolvidas por um CEJA cearense visando a permanência e o sucesso dos educandos. Os resultados apontam para a dialogicidade freireana como referência fundamental para a (re)organização do trabalho do CEJA pautada na humanização e na defesa da educação como direito.

O trabalho aborda a evasão na licenciatura como um problema público que desafia as políticas públicas e os gestores educacionais para a criação de propostas que possibilitem a permanência e o êxito dos estudantes. Para tanto, analisamos a ocorrência dos fenômenos da evasão e da permanência no contexto dos cursos de licenciatura do Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo (Ifes). O estudo tem caráter qualitativo e optamos neste texto em explorar a discussão e o diálogo com os participantes da pesquisa por meio de entrevistas virtuais. A interpretação dos dados foi realizada a partir da técnica da “análise de conteúdo”. Os dados coletados foram analisados e discutidos a partir de referencial teórico pautado para pensar o Ensino Superior universitário, a docência nesse nível de ensino e a formação de professores, entendendo o professor como um intelectual transformador, crítico e reflexivo e em contribuições sobre as possibilidades para permanência estudantil no Ensino Superior na perspectiva da integração do estudante.
Dealing with anxiety
Authors: Moura Thâmara Soares de , Magalhães Alberto Assis , Silva Francisco Vieira da
Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste estudo consiste em analisar discursos acerca da ansiedade num livro didático de Língua Inglesa do novo ensino médio. O aparato teórico que norteia as reflexões ancora-se nos apontamentos de Michel Foucault, especialmente os conceitos de discurso, enunciado, prática discursiva, verdade, modos de objetivação e de subjetivação, bem como de autores que discutem a problemática do transtorno de ansiedade, tais como o DSM-V (2014). O corpus de análise é formado por um livro didático de Língua Inglesa do ensino médio, English vibes for Brazilian learnes mais especificamente a unidade denominada Dealing with anxiety, cujo foco reside em partir da temática da ansiedade, especialmente entre os jovens, para trabalhar as habilidades do ensino de língua inglesa como língua estrangeira. Metodologicamente, este trabalho é caracterizado como uma pesquisa documental, de natureza qualitativa. As análises denotam que a seleção da ansiedade como um tema para uma unidade do material didático estudado está sensivelmente articulada com a amplitude desse problema em escala mundial. Ademais, foi possível constatar que a posição que enuncia no livro didático, além de trazer materialidades discursivas marcadas pela ênfase na informação acerca da ansiedade, encentram tecnologias de si, por meio das quais o sujeito discente pode subjetivar-se.

Published: October 2022

Em tempos de BNCC, convém promover discussão das orientações que permeiam o currículo da Educação Infantil, destacando as ações de inclusão. Neste artigo, o objetivo é compreender como o currículo da Educação Infantil, considerando as obrigatoriedades da BNCC, contempla ações de inclusão, em Mossoró-RN. Nessa busca, realizamos um estudo exploratório, em fontes bibliográficas e documentais, destacando a inclusão no currículo da Educação Infantil em Mossoró-RN. Foram pontuadas informações em documentos que tratam do currículo no contexto nacional e local,e em dissertações que integram o projeto de fluxo contínuo “As Infâncias Potiguares e suas diferenças: ensino, formação e práticas curriculares”, além de artigos de periódicos e capítulos de livros da área em foco. Nesse percurso, buscou-se compreender a audácia e imposição nos documentos, mas especificamente na BNCC que não orienta, de modo preciso, a inclusão na infância. Sendo assim, dada a importância desse foco, pautamos as inferências dos educadores e negociação coletiva em contextos locais, visando amenizar prejuízos em tempos e espaços curriculares, por meio da resistência, debates formativos e negociações, professores reelaboram ideias e fortalecem o currículo da infância. Assim, positivamente impactam a elaboração curricular e políticas educacionais no contexto local.

Published: October 2022

Apresenta uma discussão sobre interdisciplinaridade e decolonialidade avaliativa e seus contextos, suas características e registros de produção de conhecimentos interdisciplinares nos documentos teóricos, que indiquem o esclarecimento desse termo nas propostas pedagógicas do ensino. O propósito é refletir sobre decololinialidade, avaliação e novas práticas docentes, buscando o significado da interdisciplinaridade como ação educativa e metodológica na educação básica. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por levantamento bibliográfico em artigos e livros; bem como a partir junto a relatos de colegas do Posensino. Os aportes teóricos e as análises possibilitaram cogitações sobre a importância desta temática na educação, para que a interdisciplinaridade possa ocorrer. Faz-se necessário romper as barreiras invisíveis presentes em muitas disciplinas, dificuldades no acesso do saber compartilhado. A ação interdisciplinar é um caminho para o aperfeiçoamento de diferentes áreas de conhecimento, assim como as possíveis narrativas que serão construídas mediante diálogos acadêmicos que esse texto venha suscitar.

ensino de artes no currículo da ducação básica no contexto atual
Authors: Marques Edite Colares Oliveira , Mendes José Ernandi
Published: October 2022

No presente artigo, abordamos a Educação Artística na Educação Básica no Brasil, sobre dois pontos de vista: a formação do educador e a compreensão de arte empregada nos documentos oficiais, e, para em seguida fazermos a defesa de uma formação no campo das artes dos professores da educação básica, indispensável ao trabalho docente e a formação integral das crianças e dos adolescentes. Apoiados em pensadores críticos, discutimos a Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC), quanto à dimensão sensível e o discurso das competências ali expresso, e defendemos uma educação em que a estética componha os fundamentos da formação de professores. Quando analisamos a BNCC, é bem perceptível a falta de valorização e de lugar do campo de saber das Artes. É quase inacreditável que na terceira década deste milénio tenhamos que afirmar o ensino de artes e suas repercussões na escola, e suas inquestionáveis contribuições para o desenvolvimento humano. Destacamos assim a formatividade da Arte e o dever de o Estado garantir o direito de aprendizagem das Artes na escola, assegurando uma educação integral ao estudante.
