A coletânea ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA: PESQUISAS E PRÁTICAS PEDAGÓGICAS NAS DIFERENTES LINGUAGENS E ESPAÇOS apresenta resultados de pesquisas e práticas pedagógicas bem como alguns fundamentos teóricos e conceituais presentes no Ensino de Filosofia no Brasil. Com a organização e publicação desta coletânea ocorre uma contribuição para o registro e a divulgação das pesquisas e práticas no Ensino de Filosofia, ao mesmo tempo que reafirma-se o compromisso, como docentes e pesquisadores, em continuar militando política e academicamente para a permanência da Filosofia como disciplina na educação básica e no ensino superior no Brasil, com a certeza de que essa permanência precisa ocorrer com qualidade filosófica e formativa para os sujeitos da aprendizagem no cotidiano escolar.
In Topics in the Foundations of General Relativity and Newtonian Gravitation Theory, David B. Malament presents the basic logical-mathematical structure of general relativity and considers a number of special topics concerning the foundations of general relativity and its relation to Newtonian gravitation theory. These special topics include the geometrized formulation of Newtonian theory (also known as Newton-Cartan theory), the concept of rotation in general relativity, and Gödel spacetime. One of the highlights of the book is a no-go theorem that can be understood to show that there is no criterion of orbital rotation in general relativity that fully answers to our classical intuitions. Topics is intended for both students and researchers in mathematical physics and philosophy of science.
Na tentativa de desenvolver ações didáticas a favor das diferenças e sintonizadas com as demandas da sociedade contemporânea, professores e professoras deixaram-se inspirar pelas teorias pós-críticas e criaram uma pedagogia singular. Denominada Educação Física cultural, culturalmente orientada ou simplesmente currículo cultural, suas especificidades compreendem princípios ético-políticos que orientam a definição das práticas corporais a serem tematizadas, modos de organizar as atividades de ensino, estratégias avaliativas e, sobretudo, os conhecimentos abordados nas aulas. Subvertendo a tradição do componente, a proposta nasceu no chão da quadra, pelas mãos de docentes e discentes que vivem o cotidiano escolar e vem se transformando com o passar do tempo. Este livro descreve a atual configuração da perspectiva cultural da Educação Física a partir da análise dos relatos das experiências mais recentes realizadas em instituições de ensino públicas e privadas.
Michel Meyer offers a new beginning for philosophy rooted in a theory of questioning that he calls "problematology." Meyer argues that a new beginning is necessary in order to resituate philosophy, science, and linguistic analysis, and he proposes a global view of rationality by returning to the nature of questioning itself. For Meyer, philosophy does not solve problems or give answers but instead shows how propositions are related to a whole field of questions that give them meaning. Reason is identified not with answers but with the question-answer process. Meyer pursues this new theory of reason and meaning in a critique of Western philosophy from Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle through He...
Through a collection of 13 chapters, Peggy Deamer examines the profession of architecture not as an abstraction, but as an assemblage of architectural workers. What forces prevent architects from empowering ourselves to be more relevant and better rewarded? How can these forces be set aside by new narratives, new organizations and new methods of production? How can we sit at the decision-making table to combat short-term real estate interests for longer-term social and ethical value? How can we pull architecture—its conceptualization, its pedagogy, and its enactment—into the 21st century without succumbing to its neoliberal paradigm? In addressing these controversial questions, Architect...
"Traces the relations of architecture and urbanism to forms of human unsettlement and territorial insecurity during the 1960s and 70s"--Dust jacket.
Directly confronting the nature of contemporary architectural work, this book is the first to address a void at the heart of architectural discourse and thinking. For too long, architects have avoided questioning how the central aspects of architectural “practice” (professionalism, profit, technology, design, craft, and building) combine to characterize the work performed in the architectural office. Nor has there been a deeper evaluation of the unspoken and historically-determined myths that assign cultural, symbolic, and economic value to architectural labor. The Architect as Worker presents a range of essays exploring the issues central to architectural labor. These include questions ...
