We noticed the lack of information about Coffin-Siris syndrome during the pedagogical monitoring of a 3-year-old child with this condition. In the biomedical literature, the diagnosis is described as a set of characteristics of hypoplasia or aplasia, facial dysmorphisms, intellectual interruptions, etc. Through the historical -cultural understanding of the development of people with disabilities, and based on the Dias-Presotti Method, we organized resources and strategies for the teaching process. We present our experience report of a psychopedagogical intervention that occurred over 5 months, and the resulting evidence of the child's learning processes and language development. With this work, we intend to contribute to the expansion of dialogues about this condition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the experiences of Capuxu children with the animals they interact with daily, looking for un understanding about how children's relationships with these companion species cross the Capuxu sociality, including the onomastic system, children's commensality, the techniques for the production of the body and the tasks performed by children with or for their animals. In all these experiences, there is a kind of learning mediated by affection and mutual care, in a process of affectionate imitation, in which children make kinship with animals and paradoxically finish off "growing up as humans", in the view of adults.

This work is part of a larger investigation that aimed to know the understandings of peasant high school students about the process of learning assessment in the area of natural sciences. Within the scope of this essay, the objective was to know the historical elements present in the evaluation practices developed by teachers. To achieve this, a bibliographic research was carried out, with a qualitative approach. The results showed that, over time, the assessment of learning and its procedures have been influenced by different pedagogical tendencies, which have been accentuated in each era, demarcating ideologies of education, teaching and learning. Despite the advances that have occurred in the last three decades, nowadays, the assessment of learning is still surrounded by challenges and is strongly influenced by school exams, so that, through this research, it was possible to identify that there are distances in relation to the evaluation practices developed and the legal determinations. It is concluded that it is important to know the historical aspects that involve the evaluation of learning, recognizing the contributions of the different pedagogies to the evaluation processes developed today.

The teaching of human macroscopic anatomy (hma) has traditionally been relevant for the training of health professionals, as it is a science that allows for understanding the functioning of the human body and, therefore, is necessary for adequate clinical practice. However, the training processes have not comprehensively addressed teaching, learning, and assessment, which hinders the understanding of anatomy and compromises the suitability of future health professionals' training. This research article describes the teaching, learning, and assessment processes in a Human Macroscopic Anatomy I course within a Medicine and Surgery program in Cali, Colombia, from the theoretical perspective of pedagogical content knowledge. A four-phase case study was conducted using participant observation, field notes, and semi-structured interviews as techniques. The participants included ninety second-semester students and two fourth-semester students from the Medicine and Surgery academic program, as well as four hma area professors. It was found that teaching is conceived as the transmission of knowledge, while learning falls on the student, who must autonomously grasp the main ideas of hma. The assessment is mainly oriented towards grading. The teaching experience revealed a lack of understanding of how students learn the main ideas of hma and how teaching and assessment could be integrated to support this learning.

Objective: To base bio-learning on community experiences in a rural territory of Colombia. Methodology: A socio-critical paradigm, qualitative approach, and Critical Participatory Action Research (CPAR) method. Instruments were a sociodemographic survey, focal groups, semi-structured individual interviews and learning experiences. The instruments were supported by the sociodemographic sheet, focal groups and interview scripts, planning of learning experiences, and observation sheets. The work unit was 51 community families, six teachers, 29 students, six community-linked external agents and one research professor for a total of 195 participants. Results: In Cycle I Problematization, the disconnection of the school from the community was recognized due to the lack of recognition of ancestral local knowledge from the culture, customs, and traditions of the community. Cycle II Communitization was implemented to enable the solution of those problems. It was based on three learning experiences related to coffee as the main product of the rural territory. As a result, community-related processes such as the construction of peasant and school knowledge supported by processes of community bio-learning were found to provide an ideographic vision of communitization. The community is constructed in a shared pedagogical environment in which bio-community learners interact as part of a bio-learning community to solve the needs of communitization and project bio-learning. Conclusions: Customs have not passed from generation to generation; neither daily life activities nor the value of bio-learning are being exploited. The learning spaces can be found in everyday life, in nature, or in the rural territory itself; hence, the importance of learning experiences from community participation-based bio-learning. The bio-learning community is recognized as supported by community training processes in, from, and for life. It takes the indigenous, cultural, customs, what is shared from the territory, and what has been referred to as the community spirit of bio-learning as its starting point. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Population aging brings forth various social demands and entails comprehensive changes in social and psychological aspects. To comprehend the complexity of aging, an interdisciplinary approach is necessary. In this context, this study aims to explore issues related to the aging process, its trends, and alternatives to promote individual and collective health, with a particular focus on the psychological aspects of aging, in conjunction with gerontological knowledge. Understanding the common transformations that occur in aging, such as affective issues, emotional regulation, and self-regulation influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic factors, such as functional decline and the presence or absence of a support network, is essential. In this regard, psychological interventions, such as those based on education and learning, play an important role in maintaining and protecting the quality of life during aging, promoting secondary protective factors such as strengthening and creating support networks, self-esteem, and autonomy.

Brazilian university students show interest and engage in entrepreneurial activities, but little is known about the nature, outcomes, and challenges of their ventures. Most studies in the field are predominantly quantitative and do not unveil the details of the entrepreneurial process. This research aimed to understand how the entrepreneurial process unfolded among students in the Administration program at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). A qualitative and descriptive approach was employed in this study with four Administration students from UFMG. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using the Organizational Learning 4i Model. As a result, it was possible to observe that all the entrepreneurs in question engaged in entrepreneurship opportunistically, having never undertaken entrepreneurial activities before. However, they were exposed to entrepreneurship within their families and sought training along their journey. Their businesses had at least two founders, operated in the service sector, were financially independent from public and private organizations, generated revenue for at least one year, and most had late or no formalization. This study fulfilled the role of elucidating details and nuances of entrepreneurial initiatives among the students of Administration at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, by revealing a series of common and divergent characteristics among the processes, entrepreneurs, and companies in question. It also facilitated the understanding of these initiatives and can serve as a source of information for the development of future actions to encourage entrepreneurship. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present article has as its theme the approach referring to the “Linguistic Prejudice in Portuguese Language Classes”, with the objective of researching how common it is to witness cases of prejudice with the language in the classroom. In order to show the influence of society and the role of the school regarding linguistic prejudice, it is therefore necessary to note that the Portuguese language is not based only on normative grammar, it must also be observed that linguistic prejudice affects learning of the student. This study is carried out through bibliographic research. Therefore, it is possible to verify that many remain trapped in the myth that the most difficult language is the most beautiful and the most correct, and only educated people speak this dialect.

This study aims to reflect on the practice of self-assessment at the Salesian School, as an innovation, in view of the quality of teaching. Through bibliographical research, with the review of the ideas of several renowned theorists, it is concluded that, traditionally, evaluation processes are understood, almost exclusively, as itineraries for verification, selection and classification of students. However, reflections on self-assessment discuss such itineraries as integrated processes that aim to develop learning, not being static, but procedural, cyclical and continuous. In this scenario, it is worth thinking about how to improve these itineraries with the aim of developing student autonomy and meaningful learning, especially when it is an ally to school management, which aims to achieve successful learning as a service to society.

Purpose: The contributions of individuals in the innovative process and the way they learn are crucial. However, the various entrepreneurial learning modes are neglected in discussions about innovation. That said, innovation is considered to emerge from continuous learning processes and the accumulation and development of knowledge from relationships, experiences, skills, and information. Thus, this work aims to identify how small business entrepreneurs adopt the different learning modes in their innovation actions. Originality/value: The academic contribution of this research is to present initial steps regarding entrepreneurial learning modes in conjunction with innovation. On the other hand, the practical contribution refers to understanding the different forms of learning that can be considered for innovation, which the study will provide to small business entrepreneurs. Design/methodology/approach: The research strategy adopted was multiple case studies and content and cross-case analysis techniques were used for data analysis. Findings: Research results show that experiential, through networks, formal, and vicarious learning are important modes to help entrepreneurs achieve market distinction through innovative solutions. Thus, the knowledge accumulation provided by the different learning modes studied resulted in implementing various innovation actions, mainly in services, in the companies participating in the study.

Indiscipline currently presents itself as an important element within the school space, since the entire school community, teachers, students, parents and management nucleus perceive its presence, often placing it as one of the aspects that hinder the teaching-learning process. The general objective of the research is to search for an explanation about the construction of indiscipline that deviates from common sense and comes closer to a scientific explanation, since discussions on the topic always refer to different opinions without reaching a common denominator. The work was carried out based on the analysis of indiscipline in two elementary schools in the municipality of Banabuiú. As a research instrument, we chose a questionnaire in which, answering the guiding questions raised in the research, it was found that the different actors in the school space still cannot understand indiscipline in a meaningful way, as a construction. We understand this work as a possibility and a proposal for a different view on (in)discipline within schools, and thus seek to resize our actions. We are aware of the limits and shortcomings of this work, which is why we leave it open to criticism and suggestions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The social isolation imposed by Covid-19 pandemic has generated changes in education and the teaching processes suddenly became supported by technology. Thus, a qualitative research with elementary school mathematics teachers from public school in municipality of Cabo de Santo Agostinho in Pernambuco was developed in order to investigate how the pandemic and the use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies impacted the teaching and learning process in these schools. An open form was applied to understand teachers’ challenges with remote classes and their visions of hybrid teaching, in the future without a pandemic. This research identified that certain teachers encountered difficulties with the use of technologies in the preparation of their classes, specifically in the use of software focused to teaching mathematics. This study’s results show that due to factors such as Internet and electronic devices scarcity, there was low student engagement in the activities proposed by teachers during remote teaching, which indicates the urgency of public policies to assure students’ access to technologies. In relation to the teachers who participated in this research, the experience in pandemic period has given rise to an acceptance to the adoption of technologies, breaking down stigmas related to the use of technology in mathematics teaching.

This research article aimed to analyze the contributions of the use of self-assessment in the education of students, during the discipline of Physics 3, within the Undergraduate Course in Electronic Engineering at a Federal University in the Central-West region of Paraná, Brazil, which was implemented during two semesters of emergency remote teaching in the year 2021. This study has a qualitative-quantitative nature, both with a descriptive approach, in order to thoroughly characterize the collected data. Therefore, the data for the analysis were derived from the final grades of the research individuals and a self-assess-ment developed by the participants at the end of the Physics 3 discipline. Thus, from the 70 enrolled students, only 52 participated in the research. The data were analyzed and discussed in the light of theoretical assumptions, descriptive statistics, and Content Analysis proposed by Bardin (2016). In the end, it was found that the assessment proposal, besides potentially improving the learning process, allowed each student to exercise autonomy to develop a critical and qualitative analysis of their own learning processes. In this sense, they had the opportunity to reflect on their individual and collective actions during the course, becoming more aware of their own needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The science of Mathematics, one of the oldest areas of knowledge, has the philosophy of bringing together abstract and concrete knowledge to build new know-how. This science studies numbers, magnitudes, shapes and possibilities, and maker culture emerges as a notable instrument for the student to establish the inseparable connection between theory and practice. Justification: maker culture is linked to constructivism despite learning by doing. The student learns with creativity, in teaching, in execution, in the art of continuing to learn throughout his life. The center of teaching-learning is the student who stars and writes his or her own story. Therefore, the implementation of the mathematics club in the public school was essential for achieving the objective: central to this study, which is to analyze the results of the implementation of a mathematics club through maker culture, in a state school with high school students. Medium in the second half of 2023. Methodology: The action project, mathematics club, focused on active methodologies, through maker culture (method). Entitled: maker culture and mathematics club - A pedagogical possibility for teaching and learning mathematics in high school, was developed within classrooms. Its methodology focused on observation and execution of different stages and with a qualitative focus it was possible to work on Results: more than numbers. Observation of the project, the experience as a teacher, resulted in theoretical-methodological gains and the students were able to develop a taste for learning Mathematics. Conclusion: With the Mathematics Club, maker culture can be shown as a pedagogical possibility for teaching and learning mathematics. All activities that focus on active methods allow for interactive and collaborative learning, especially with the use of digital technologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The preparation of planning, an element that is part of didactics, is fundamental to educational practice because it is through this document that the teacher addresses what will be carried out in the classroom, being necessary to choose the objectives, contents, methodologies, resources and evaluations. In this context, the present study is inserted, whose objective is to analyze the conceptions of a professor on the subjects didactics, planning and evaluation. This is a qualitative, descriptive research, with the use of bibliographic review and field research, through a questionnaire, carried out with a teacher who works in Elementary and High School, in the area of Biological Sciences. The results show that the participant knows the concepts of Didactics and its tools, but the structural difficulties in the school hinder the good development of the educational practice. Therefore, in view of the answers obtained in the questionnaire, it is clear that the process of his work is always focused on the student to meet the needs of the reality he lives, from the preparation of planning with the choice of contents and methods to the practice of teaching in order to to develop a cognitive, critical, realistic and reflective being about the world around him.

In educational environments, especially in Law course subjects, the use of feedback is a pedagogical strategy for formative assessment, that is, it favors student learning. The teacher, when preparing the feedback, provides information that guides the students, establishing conditions for self-assessment, thus regulating the teaching and learning process. With regard to the theoretical foundation to classify the types of feedbacks, the authors Tunstall and Gipps (1996), Schwartz and White (2000 apud Paiva, 2006, p. 167) and Yorke (2003) were used. This is an exploratory qualitative research, carried out in the years 2020 and 2021, and aims to understand the process of issuing feedbacks by professors of the Law course in face-to-face disciplines. As a method of data collection, semi-structured interviews were used, which were later transcribed. Five professors who work in face-to-face disciplines of the technical-legal training axis of a Higher Education institution in the south of Bahia participated in the research. Data analysis was carried out using Bardin's Content Analysis (2011). It was interpreted that the issuance of feedback takes place in the dialogue at the beginning of the class, as well as after the correction of the assessment instruments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Writing processing occurs at different levels of analysis: phonological, orthographic, morphosyntactic and semantic. In writing, as in reading, the lexical route is used for the transcription of more frequent words while the phonological route allows the phoneme-grapheme association of each unknown word component. During the literacy process, errors are common and demonstrate what hypotheses about writing the student raises at that moment. There are several classifications of spelling errors in the literature and this study seeks to classify them according to the phonological, orthographic, morphosyntactic and semantic levels and also according to three processes: substitution, omission or addition and word junction or segmentation. With these criteria, the spelling profile of typical students from the 2nd to 5th year of elementary school was outlined. The assessment was carried out by dictation of noun phrases applied to groups of 10 children at school. The dictations were analyzed by a panel made up of a speech therapist and a linguist and the errors were classified into 23 categories, subsequently analyzed by item response theory and invariance analysis. The behavior of errors throughout the school years was analyzed using Fisher's exact test. Errors in the substitution process decreased throughout school progression, while errors in the omission and addition process showed a statistically significant difference between the alphabetical phase and the orthographic phase of literacy, and word junction and segmentation errors had statistical significance between the 2nd year and the subsequent years.

This research article is based on the master's thesis titled "OfiCalc and GeoGebra as didactic tools for the understanding, use, and application of angles in 10th-grade students at the I.E. Gabriel García Márquez in San Carlos de Guaroa, Meta Department, Colombia." The study emphasizes the significance of Realistic Mathematics Education (rme) in the teaching and learning of Mathematics, along with its influence on the transformation of the educational curriculum and compliance with the General Education Law (Law 115 of 1994) in Colombia. The main purpose of the article is to evaluate the implementation of this approach in the Colombian educational context, considering existing legal regulations and curriculum guidelines. To achieve this, a qualitative literature review is conducted, facilitating an analysis of the shared principles and foundations between rme and Law 115 of 1994, exploring their relationship with the teaching and learning of mathematics. Additionally, a detailed analysis is provided regarding the importance of promoting rme as a pedagogical approach aimed at enhancing the quality and relevance of mathematical education in Colombia. As a result, the need to establish connections between mathematical concepts and the real world is emphasized, along with the presentation of authentic mathematical challenges to stimulate critical thinking, logical reasoning, and informed decision-making.

In this article, realistic conceptions of knowledge that organize pedagogical decisions are problematized and encourage assessment to be seen as a "monster" that terrorizes the schooling processes of children, young people and adults. This discussion is developed in the light of post-structural theoretical contributions, the appropriation of which has been productive for understanding the theoretical assumptions that support certainties and legitimize exclusionary evaluative practices that feed fears and insecurities in the schooling processes. As a theoretical reference, contributions from post-structural contributions produced in the field of curriculum are appropriate in dialogue with reflections on assessment. As considerations resulting from these reflections, it is worth highlighting that the promotion of evaluative practices that can, in fact, contribute to the realization of a more democratic and inclusive education presupposes theoretical investment in reflections that make explicit the contingency of pedagogical decisions.

Objective: Considering the importance of the beginning of the academic trajectory for children to reach their full development, this work aims to evaluate the school readiness of preschool-age children and identify which factors influence these results, in order to contribute to the proposition of strategies that allow improving the teaching-learning process and child development. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study with 443 preschool children belonging to the West Region Cohort (ROC Cohort), from the public school system of the city of São Paulo. School readiness was assessed by the International Development and Early Learning Assessment (IDELA) tool. Nonparametric techniques were used for the correlation analysis between IDELA scores and sociodemographic and socioeconomic conditions: Spearman’s parametric correlation, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: The children’s mean age was 69 months (standard deviation — SD=2.8; ranging from 55 to 72 months) and most of them came from families with low socioeconomic level. Most children showed adequate readiness in the overall score (65%) and in most domains, except for emergent literacy, in which most (56.9%) were classified as “emergent”. The highest percentage of insufficiency was identified in executive functions (4.1%), which showed a correlation only with the caregiver’s education. Conclusions: Children had adequate school readiness scores, except for emergent literacy, but the insufficiency in executive functions may compromise the future schooling of these children. Thus, pedagogical proposals should consider these aspects for learning and pediatricians need to reinforce the habit of reading and playing games to stimulate child development.

Objective: This systematic review aims to characterize studies on human rights education in schools in Latin America between 2016 and 2022. Its purpose is to contribute to the discussion regarding the formation of this field of knowledge. The backdrop of the debate centers on how tensions between the political-legal and moral aspects, inherent in human rights theory, have influenced the development of the field of rights education. These tensions become apparent when the international political reality intersects with the local political context during the process of integrating human rights covenants, recommendations, and protocols into educational systems. Methodology: The documentary body consists of 51 manuscripts identified in the databases: Redalyc, Jstor, Scielo and Scopus, based on the Protocol for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis PRISMA. The literature analysis is organized by author, year, country, method, and contribution to the understanding of human rights in schools, through indicators related to the political establishment of rights in the educational system, and the set of moral conceptions and resources used for their appropriation. Results: Efforts to organize the school system and ensure education as a right prevail, while promoting knowledge of school systems' regulatory system. In addition, there are discursive practices of a moral nature oriented toward human rights education, but with effects on the formation of new citizenships. Conclusions: Two social forces have converged in the discursive establishment of Human Rights Education (HRE), one with a preeminence of political-legal aspects and a strong moral content; another covering actions coming from popular education. In schools, HRE has favored the development of critical thinking and the public use of reason, with effects on the shaping of political subjectivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article highlights the development of visual arts in Early Childhood Education, showing that Art is of great relevance for the growth of children in all aspects. Without a doubt, Visual Arts are part of every child's daily life. They bring with them baggage from home, as their parents, in some way, passed on something involving the artistic field. This research shows that all these languages are ways for children to express themselves and communicate. Regardless of the help of a professional, she will demonstrate her artistic side, expressing herself naturally. Considering that each child is unique, it is necessary to know unique aspects of each one of them to understand the right way to achieve the desired goals. This type of work that values the child's individuality, as well as their way of seeing and interpreting the world, contributes to providing opportunities for small activities related to Visual Arts so that they feel free when carrying out them.

This article seeks to demonstrate the importance of playfulness in the child development process, seeking to reveal its contributions to the educational and social scenario. When applying learning to a more playful method, it can help the child feel like participating, and thus develop their skills. In addition to adding knowledge that will be developed during classes, thus promoting a pleasant and interactive environment. Play can also stimulate the development of cognitive skills, where the student can use their imagination and creativity, thus contributing to the construction of knowledge, where the teacher will use materials and games as a tool to attract students' attention, so that they can participate and thus contribute to their teaching-learning process. Proposing a more dynamic and creative method can help both the students and the teacher, which will involve the class, leaving them increasingly excited, interested and participating in classes. Showing that play related to learning is an important factor, which makes it clear that play has its value in contributing to learning and it is not just a form of fun, you just need to define its objective in the classroom, if it is used in a way that contributes to students' learning, it will increasingly favor the performance of the class, thus favoring a welcoming environment, where children can have a good relationship with their classmates, where in this way everyone can always be in contact with each other, helping.

It is concluded that the use of the software improves students' learning and their ability to develop thesis projects. The article discusses the functionality, advantages, and disadvantages of using educational software in the educational context, and highlights the importance of it being a didactic and flexible tool. Additionally, it is mentioned that the proper integration of ICT in education can improve the teaching-learning process. [Extracted from the article]

This exploratory study examined the self-assessment practices of Peruvian pedagogy students. The results showed that students tended to use self-assessment in a summative rather than formative way, which limited their development of metacognitive processes. Further research is suggested to strengthen the culture of self-assessment. The article reports on the lack of scientific literature related to self-assessment in higher education students in Peru, both before and after the pandemic. [Extracted from the article]

This study is aimed at analysing and reflecting upon Spanish learning by Brazilian undergraduate students at an educational institution in inner Rio Grande do Sul, teachers-to-be, during the pandemics. For this purpose, at first we present a theoretical framework on the students' perceptions and beliefs regarding the teaching and learning of a foreign language from the perspective of Barcelos (2004, 2006) and Mukai (2014). Next, we address the use of technologies to foreign language teaching, drawing on theoretical frameworks by Moran (2007), Santaella (2013) and Pozo Municio (2020). In order to collect data, the students answered a questionnaire on Google Forms with 32 questions regarding lessons and the methodology applied by teachers to the teaching of Spanish. Results show that, although students prefer on-site lessons, they maintain the interest in learning Spanish, even in a synchronous manner, but they complain about many tasks to be performed at home, which turns out to be very exhausting. Therefore, although these are technological times, students, mainly those who live in the countryside, find difficulties with connection and equipment so they can follow synchronous lessons.

This article provides a review of the state of the art on bioethics in the context of public school education. Through a documentary analysis, trends in this field are examined based on various teaching-learning processes. Among the results, the importance of developing critical thinking through the active participation of students is emphasized, aiming to foster reasoning and moral decision-making while incorporating real-life situations from their context. Certain bioethical topics that students do not handle confidently need to be strengthened. The suggestion is to expand the analysis to determine whether socio-economic conditions in the context of public school education lead students to neglect bioethical principles. Therefore, discussing resilience and will in this context implies the ability to sustain a discourse and a framework of action, as bioethics should be lived and experienced in terms of its principles and values. In this sense, it becomes a capacity to be a leader and set an example for a community so that the entire theory is credible and can be practiced. Finally, it is hoped that bioethics can gain recognition in the context of public school education, especially in communities that also need guidance on bioethical principles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The electronic reflective portfolio (ERP) reveals itself as an innovative resource for learning and assessment, which facilitates cognitive development and critical and reflective thinking. Therefore, the use of PRE in health education is analyzed here in the face of an integrative literature review, with specific objectives: to identify scenarios of PRE use in health education; verify the effects of PRE, as a teaching, learning and assessment strategy; and identify the advantages and challenges of PRE. This is an integrative literature review (2011-2021). The bibliographic survey was conducted electronically, via the Internet, in the Virtual Health Library and Scientific Electronic Library Online database, in September 2021. The analysis categories were formed from the grouping of recurrent aspects in the texts analyzed with a summary of the main elements of each publication. Although researches accuse the benefits of using PRE for the educational process in the health area, considering that it can provide the autonomy of students, reflection on the pedagogical and professional trajectory, overcoming cognitive aspects, the evolution resulting from procedural and formative assessment, from critical and unique narratives and to favor the affective relationship between student-teacher and studentstudent, in favor of the development of new knowledge and skills, it is clear that the quantity of studies on the subject are still unimpressive.

The present study on learning in mathematics: evolution of methodologies and assessment in basic education guides a problem that has evolved, which is the issue of learning, assessment and school planning that guides the teacher as an agent of facilitating education. Therefore, it is challenged to rethink the decision-making resulting from this planning and its mathematical evaluation practice. To corroborate the theme, the applied methodology is action research. It is noteworthy that constructivism preaches that mathematics education has been a new paradigm in stimulating mathematical learning and the development of reasoning, even great thinkers such as PIAGET and VYGOTSKY cite their contributions to learning, problem situations, understanding of operations and applications.

Purpose: The objective of this work is to understand how teaching and learning in project management happens and what their challenges are. Design/methodology/approach: To achieve this objective, we developed a Systematic Literature Review about teaching and learning in project management. Initially, we found 667 works. After reading the title, we selected 150 works for a full reading. 120 were suitable for the proposed objective. Findings: We found five categories: (1) learning; (2) teaching; (3) education; (4) skills; and (5) knowledge. Originality/value: We observed that there are gaps in the studies dealing with these themes concerning project management. Topics such as management of learning processes, the relationship between learning in educational institutions and organizational environments, the impact of informal learning, experiential learning, comparison of serious games and simulations with other learning methods, serous games in projects, hard skills, and soft skills, are still not widely published in academic journals on project management.

This article aims to analyze the ideas that high school students in the city of Guarapuava presented about the substantive concept of democracy. The clipping presented here results from the analysis carried out based on the narratives obtained through questionnaires that explored aspects related to the theme of democracy, whether from a procedural or normative point of view. The concept of democracy presented by the sample revealed a strong link with procedural aspects, especially with regard to the principle of representativeness, at the same time that it showed a high rate of distrust in democratic institutions.

In the context of a deeply uncertain world and with rapid generational change, the scientific direction for the training of Geography and History teachers in the NW of Portugal (University of Minho and Porto), reflect on the evolution of perspectives and concepts of Geography and History presented by students of basic and higher education. It is relevant to understand what young people, in different stages of education, retain about these two areas to clarify whether their reading reflects, or not, the contents and objectives and if they translate, or not, the recent international concerns of education in Geography and History. The starting point is the analysis of the data collected from students at the end of study cycles, through a questionnaire with two open-ended questions, in which we ask them to express "concepts" and "importance/value" for each subject: (1) what is Geography/History; (2) what is Geography/History for. This will result in a hierarchy of the most relevant words, which will be crossed, through a quantitativedescriptive methodology, with those considered: in the Essential Learnings of each study cycle; the purposes of the training pathway of Geography and History teachers in higher education; and with the international benchmarks of teaching and education for these scientific areas. The results express the need to consolidate bridges between the ideas emanating from international scientific forums and the design of the study plans, with reflection on the conceptions that students build about Geography and History, in their relationship with teacher training.

In this article is presented a proposal for modeling in the teaching-learning and evaluation of the Human Macroscopic Anatomy (HMA), based on the analysis of several models made by second semester students of the academic program of Medicine and Surgery. These models were carried out within the framework of a short course called Preanatomy, in which a participant observation was developed, followed by means of a field diary recorded by the main researcher. The models were evaluated with a rubric with five performance levels: preformal, receptive, resolutive, autonomous and strategic. It was found that 33.3 % of the students' models were at a strategic level, 25 % at a receptive level, 16.6 % at a resolutive level, 16.6 % at a preformal level and 8.3 % at an autonomous level. Regarding the students' difficulties by engaging in modeling activities, problems were detected to understand the use of anatomical terminology, identification and differentiation of structures in different cuts and views, and spatial location. According to these results, the modeling proposal includes the following stages: identification of a topic of interest; search, review, analysis and comparison of different texts; observation, inquiry and experimentation; development of the project for the construction of the anatomical model, interdisciplinary work; socialization; improvements to the anatomical model and writing of a manuscript with the model construction process.

Introduction: Violence against the elderly is an important public health problem, since the natural wear and tear of the body resulting from the aging process makes them more vulnerable. In this context, it is important to sensitize society as a whole to face the problem, and games can be used as active educational strategies to approach the theme. Objective: To report the experience of a group of university students from different areas of knowledge, in the Gamification process aimed at preventing violence against the elderly. Methods: This is a qualitative study, which used the experience report technique. For its organization, the following steps were followed: description of the time period, the place, the axis of the experience, type of experience, public of the interventional action, resources, actions, instruments, analysis criteria and ethics. It was developed in a medium-sized municipality, involving university students from different areas of training, from December 2022 to February 2023. Results: 40 students from different areas of training participated in the activity, which were divided into six small groups, after receiving instructions on violence against the elderly and gamification by specialists in the subject. Six game proposals were elaborated, to be developed in different scenarios and actors. Conclusions: Gamification represents a powerful instrument to stimulate and favor the development of the ability to elaborate passable solutions, collaborating in the approach of sensitive themes, as is the case of violence against the elderly, through prevention actions, and awareness and meaningful learning.
