Cadernos de Pesquisa do Programa de Pós-graduação em Ensino de Física da UFRGS
Este livro tem por objetivo compartilhar produções conjuntas de docentes e discentes ou egressos do Programa de Pós-graduação em Ensino de Física da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS).
Formação acadêmico profissional
Este livro reúne textos produzidos por pesquisadores do Mestrado Acadêmico em Ensino e compõe a primeira publicação do programa. São vozes que se encontram e compartilham experiências que os leitores podem analisar, refletir, acolher ou contestar, para dar continuidade ao diálogo e inspirar novas pesquisas e o desenvolvimento educacional.
Desafios da educação na contemporaneidade 3
“A alegria não chega apenas no encontro do achado, mas faz parte do processo da busca. E ensinar e aprender não pode dar-se fora da procura, fora da boniteza e da alegria.” Paulo Freire Apresentar um livro é sempre uma alegria e ao mesmo tempo um desafio que se apresenta, principalmente por nele conter tanto de cada autor, de cada pesquisa, suas aspirações, suas expectativas, seus achados e o mais importante de tudo a disseminação do conhecimento produzido cientificamente. Deste modo, não poderia deixar de escolher uma epígrafe que melhor viesse ao encontro com o que se propõe o volume 3 da Coletânea “Desafios da Educação na Contemporaneidade”, pois o ensinar e aprender ...
Developing Models in Science Education
Models and modelling play a central role in the nature of science, in its conduct, in the accreditation and dissemination of its outcomes, as well as forming a bridge to technology. They therefore have an important place in both the formal and informal science education provision made for people of all ages. This book is a product of five years collaborative work by eighteen researchers from four countries. It addresses four key issues: the roles of models in science and their implications for science education; the place of models in curricula for major science subjects; the ways that models can be presented to, are learned about, and can be produced by, individuals; the implications of all these for research and for science teacher education. The work draws on insights from the history and philosophy of science, cognitive psychology, sociology, linguistics, and classroom research, to establish what may be done and what is done. The book will be of interest to researchers in science education and to those taking courses of advanced study throughout the world.
Meselson, Stahl, and the Replication of DNA
In 1957 two young scientists, Matthew Meselson and Frank Stahl, produced a landmark experiment confirming that DNA replicates as predicted by the double helix structure Watson and Crick had recently proposed. It also gained immediate renown as a “most beautiful” experiment whose beauty was tied to its simplicity. Yet the investigative path that led to the experiment was anything but simple, Frederic L. Holmes shows in this masterful account of Meselson and Stahl’s quest. This book vividly reconstructs the complex route that led to the Meselson-Stahl experiment and provides an inside view of day-to-day scientific research--its unpredictability, excitement, intellectual challenge, and se...
Tecnologias da informação e comunicação na educação

Completing College
Even as the number of students attending college has more than doubled in the past forty years, it is still the case that nearly half of all college students in the United States will not complete their degree within six years. It is clear that much remains to be done toward improving student success. For more than twenty years, Vincent Tinto’s pathbreaking book Leaving College has been recognized as the definitive resource on student retention in higher education. Now, with Completing College, Tinto offers administrators a coherent framework with which to develop and implement programs to promote completion. Deftly distilling an enormous amount of research, Tinto identifies the essential ...
Quaternary Dating Methods
This introductory textbook introduces the basics of dating, the range of techniques available and the strengths and limitations of each of the principal methods. Coverage includes: the concept of time in Quaternary Science and related fields the history of dating from lithostratigraphy and biostratigraphy the development and application of radiometric methods different methods in dating: radiometric dating, incremental dating, relative dating and age equivalence Presented in a clear and straightforward manner with the minimum of technical detail, this text is a great introduction for both students and practitioners in the Earth, Environmental and Archaeological Sciences. Praise from the reviews: "This book is a must for any Quaternary scientist." SOUTH AFRICAN GEOGRAPHICAL JOURNAL, September 2006 “...very well organized, clearly and straightforwardly written and provides a good overview on the wide field of Quaternary dating methods...” JOURNAL OF QUATERNARY SCIENCE, January 2007
History, Philosophy and Science Teaching: A Personal Story
This book is an historical narrative of academic appointments, significant personal and collaborative research endeavours, and important editorial and institutional engagements. For forty years Michael Matthews has been a prominent international researcher, author, editor and organiser in the field of ‘History, Philosophy and Science Teaching’. He has systematically brought his own discipline training in science, psychology, philosophy of education, and the history and philosophy of science, to bear upon theoretical, curricular and pedagogical issues in science education. The book includes accounts of philosophers who greatly influenced his own thinking and who also were personal friends – Wallis Suchting, Abner Shimony, Robert Cohen, Marx Wartofsky, Israel Scheffler, Michael Martin and Mario Bunge. It advocates the importance of clear writing and avoidance of faddism in both philosophy and in education. It concludes with a proposal for informed and enlightened science teacher education.
