Creating landscapes of investigation is a primary concern of critical mathematics education. It enables us to organise educational processes so that students and teachers are able to get involved in explorations guided by dialogical interactions. It attempts to address explicit or implicit forms of social injustice by means of mathematics, and also to promote a critical conception of mathematics, challenging the assumption that the subject represents objectivity and neutrality. Landscapes of Investigation provides many illustrations of how this can be done in primary, secondary, and university education. It also illustrates how exploring landscapes of investigation can contribute to mathemat...
The book Critical Mathematics Education provides Ole Skovsmose’s recent contribution to the further development of critical mathematics education. It gives examples of learning environments, which invite students to engage in investigative processes. It discusses how mathematics can be used for identifying cases of social injustice, and it shows how mathematics itself can become investigated critically. Critical Mathematics Education addresses issues with respect to racism, oppression, erosion of democracy, sustainability, formatting power of mathematics, and banality of mathematical expertise. It explores relationships between mathematics, ethics, crises, and critique. Ole Skovsmose has p...
The book provides an overview of state-of-the-art research from Brazil and Germany in the field of inclusive mathematics education. Originated from a research cooperation between two countries where inclusive education in mathematics has been a major challenge, this volume seeks to make recent research findings available to the international community of mathematics teachers and researchers. In the book, the authors cover a wide variety of special needs that learners of mathematics may have in inclusive settings. They present theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches for research and practice.
Foram convidados a contribuir com a edição deste livro docentes e egressos de alguns dos cursos de Pós-graduação lato sensu da Unoeste EAD que tiveram seus trabalhos elogiados pela banca examinadora, cujos temas foram considerados relevantes e que, portanto, mereciam divulgação à comunidade científica, acadêmica e educacional. Os trabalhos selecionados e apresentados neste livro perpassam por quatro grandes eixos: 1) Inclusão, Direitos Humanos e Interculturalidade; 2) Pesquisa em Educação a Distância; 3) Práticas Pedagógicas; e 4) Tecnologias da Educação.
Este livro apresenta um novo olhar de como a formação inicial de professores pode ser realizada, usando a abordagem Construcionista, Contextualizada e Significativa, a estratégia pedagógica Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos, e as TDIC como recursos de apoio para a construção do conhecimento, procurando considerar o contexto do estudante nos ambientes de aprendizagem, ressignificando o modo de aprender e de ensinar, na perspectiva de uma Educação Inclusiva.
A obra Educação Inclusiva: um desafio para o século XXI nos traz a oportunidade de conhecer a real situação do processo de inclusão nos diferentes espaços e níveis de ensino. Uma coletânea com diferentes profissionais que atuam na área da inclusão e apontam caminhos diversos e viáveis para que possamos superar os desafios e alcançar os objetivos previstos estabelecidos pela política de inclusão, que vem sendo implantada desde os anos 90 nas escolas estaduais e municipais, mas ainda não conseguiu se solidificar e eliminar a discriminação. Organizada por Irene Elias Rodrigues os textos percorrem um caminho rico de informações subsidiadas em pesquisas e experimentações cujo objetivo principal é contribuir para a efetivação de uma educação de oportunidades iguais para todos. O leitor encontrará conhecimentos teóricos e ações práticas que lhe possibilitará uma visão atual e crítica do processo de inclusão em nosso país.
This book provides an in-depth overview on the manifold functions of fungal extracellular vesicles (EV) which span from cell-to-cell communication, pathogenicity and stimulation of host’s immunity to export of hundreds of biomolecules. The book summarizes the present knowledge on the impact of extracellular vesicles on fungal biology. Extracellular vesicles participate in fundamental biological processes in all living cells but only during the last 15 years the production and functions of EVs were identified and studied in fungal species too. Up to date more than 50 independent studies have shown that extracellular vesicles are produced by at least 20 fungal species. The book addresses researchers and advanced students in Microbiology, Mycology and Biotechnology.
