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.

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.

'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 Brothers

Introducing a major new voice in Brazilian letters. 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, RGnia, 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.

Once There Was a City Named Dilli

The history of Delhi has been told and retold many times. Often the intent is to use history as an ideological tool for staking a claim to the present of the city. In Intizar Husain’s retelling, it is the tale itself that becomes delectable. A popular recital that highlights the forgotten nuances of the story, Once There was a City Named Dilli, is a celebration of the people and culture that made the city unforgettable. Forts, walled cities, bazaars, diwan khanas, durbars, and the Yamuna itself come alive in this ode to a capital serenaded and ravaged by powerful kings and chieftains over time.

Standard setting targets crucial societal objectives by defining educational benchmarks at different achievement levels, and provides feedback to policy makers, schools and teachers about the strengths and weaknesses of a school system.
