Currículo e formação no ensino de ciências

Este livro é para aqueles(as) que comungam das mais diferentes teorias educacionais, mas que convergem de algum modo para a ideia de educação para a liberdade, para a autonomia, para a emancipação, para a criticidade, para evitar a barbárie, para a revolução, enfim, em que o conhecimento historicamente sistematizado pela humanidade seja o principal objeto a ser mediado como forma de compreender, enfrentar, mudar/transformar o mundo. Temos certeza, que pelo menos um dos artigos cumprirá essa função de transformação, de reflexão, de crítica.

Ensino de ciências, currículo e inclusão

A obra Ensino de Ciências, Currículo e Inclusão - diálogos interdisciplinares não poderia ter vindo em melhor hora. Ela se apresenta em uma conjuntura bastante consternadora para a Educação Brasileira, quando são postos à prova todos os avanços que alcançamos até aqui, e que apontavam na direção de um projeto cultural de educação emancipatório e transformador. Para aqueles que comungam da ideia freiriana de que o papel primordial da educação se volta para a comunhão entre humanos mediados por determinado objeto de conhecimento, sendo esta um ato revolucionário que permite ao sujeito entender e ter a capacidade de mudar o mundo, vivemos um momento perturbador. Perturbador porque a educação libertadora e, com ela, o currículo crítico e emancipador, a criatividade, o diálogo, a comunicação, os direitos humanos, a tolerância, a autonomia e a humanidade sustentável se tornaram temas a serem combatidos por uma parcela conservadora de nossa sociedade, dado o contexto de reemergência do reacionarismo no Brasil.

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

The Mosquito Bite Author

Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.

The Brothers

Set among a Lebanese immigrant community in the Brazilian port of Manaus, The Brothers is the story of identical twins, Yaqub and Omar, whose mutual jealousy is offset only by their love for their mother. But it is Omar who is the object of Zana's Jocasta-like passion, while her husband, Halim, feels her slipping away from him, as their beautiful daughter, Rania, makes a tragic claim on her brothers' affection. Vivid, exotic, and lushly atmospheric, The Brothers is the story of a family's disintegration, of a changing city and the culture clash between the native-born inhabitants and a new immigrant group, and of the future the next generation will make from the ruins.

Home Reading Service

In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...

A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
