ResumoNeste trabalho discutimos alguns aspectos apresentados por estudantes com deficiência visual quanto às suas respectivas escolarizações inclusivas enfocando a disciplina de matemática. Foram entrevistados quatro sujeitos, atuais acadêmicos no ensino superior, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, que foram norteadas por um roteiro de perguntas construído com subsídios de uma revisão bibliográfica anterior. Na análise, empregamos os pressupostos da análise de conteúdo, e para expormos nossos resultados, utilizamos categorias elencadas por meio das convergências existentes nas falas dos entrevistados. As categorias identificadas foram: a diferenciação docente de conteúdos e atividades escolares entre estudantes com deficiência visual e videntes; o desconhecimento docente das necessidades educativas do aluno com deficiência visual; negligências/omissões docentes no ensino de estudantes com deficiência visual, incluso quanto aos seus aprendizados; tentativas isoladas de apoio docente como reflexo da falta de um trabalho coletivo escolar mais amplo.Palavras-chave: Deficiência visual, Ensino de matemática inclusivo, Narrativas de estudantes.AbstractIn this paper, we discuss some aspects presented by visually impaired students about their inclusive schooling focusing on mathematics. Four subjects, current higher education students, answered semi-structured interviews we prepared guided by a script of questions constructed with subsidies from a previous bibliographic review. In the analysis, we used the assumptions of content analysis, and to expose our results, we used categories listed through the convergences existing in the statements of the respondents. The categories identified were: the teaching differentiation of school content and activities between visually impaired and sighted students; the teachers' lack of knowledge of the educational needs of the visually impaired student; negligence/omissions in teaching visually impaired students, including their learning; isolated attempts at teaching support as a reflection of the lack of broader collective school work.Keywords: Visual impairment, Teaching of inclusive mathematics, Narratives of students.ResumenEn este artículo se discuten algunos aspectos presentados por estudiantes con discapacidad visual sobre su escolarización inclusiva con enfoque en matemáticas.

<span>The aim of this study is to determine the anxiety level that visually impaired students may have for the future when planning their profession. Anxiety is defined as excessive level fear and worry about real or imaginary situations. So the excessive worry can affect the ability to act to solve a problem. This study is a case study based on the semi-structured interviews. The study group consists of six 8th grade students with visual impairment. The aim of selecting students with visual impairment as a sample group is to determine the individuals who are aware that education is an important for their future plans but at the same time aware that the barriers created by society have greater impact on their the socialization. As a result, visually impaired individuals are willing to be part of the society, but the created obstacles cause anxiety in many different ways as they constitute their futures. This situation negatively affects their motivation and academic performance, and diminishes the importance of education for them as well.</span>

Perceptual Function

The lips and tongue demonstrate similar or greater spatial acuity than the fingertips. Indeed, infants use the mouth to perceive properties of objects such as hardness, texture, and shape. In normal development, it is assumed that mouthing decreases in favour of increasingly advanced hand exploration patterns. However, anecdotal reports suggest that mouthing continues to serve a perceptual function when a person’s vision is abnormal. This study explored blind or visually impaired (BVI) adults’ self-reported use of mouthing to perceive properties of objects. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 20 BVI adults with visual acuities ranging from no light perception to 20/40. Data were analysed using content analysis to identify specific properties perceived by the mouth. Despite social norms that discourage mouthing, some BVI adults use oral tactile perception of texture, shape, temperature, and taste to better characterize objects. These findings suggest that compensatory behaviours using the mouth can support the rehabilitation of individuals with abnormal vision.

Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar os relatos dos gestores de micro e pequenas empresas de João Pessoa-PB sob a perspectiva da Teoria Crítica, discutindo aspectos destes relatos associados aos mitos e fatos defendidos por Mintzberg (1990). A fundamentação teórica aborda três aspectos centrais: a importância da ciência da administração nos contextos teórico e prático; os mitos e fatos gerenciais e; a perspectiva da Teoria Crítica (TC) e suas reflexões no âmbito organizacional. Participaram da pesquisa 12 gestores, divididos em: graduados em administração, outra graduação e gestores sem formação superior. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, sendo, posteriormente, analisadas por meio da análise de conteúdo. Os resultados revelaram alguns aspectos peculiares entre os grupos de entrevistados, tais como: a necessidade dos mesmos em ter auto responsabilidade dentro e fora da empresa para buscar as informações e os conhecimentos necessários para garantir a sua sobrevivência ou ascensão no mercado atuante. Além disso, verificou-se que a abertura da gestão frente às propostas, sugestões ou críticas dos funcionários é um aspecto fundamental para tornar o ambiente de trabalho um lugar mais democrático e favorável às discussões pertinentes aos interesses de todos os colaboradores.  This study aims to analyze the reports of the managers of micro and small enterprises of João Pessoa-PB from the perspective of Critical Theory, discussing aspects of these reports associated to the myths and facts defended by Mintzberg (1990). The theoretical framework addresses three main aspects: the importance of management science in theoretical and practical contexts; the myths and facts and management and; the perspective of Critical Theory (CT) and its reflections on the organizational level. The participants were 12 managers, divided into: managers degree in business administration, with other graduate and managers without higher education. Semi-structured interviews, and later analyzed using content analysis were performed. The results revealed some peculiar aspects of the interview groups, such as the need for them to have self-responsibility inside and outside the company to find the information and knowledge needed to ensure their survival or rise in the active market and the sense of constant learning. Furthermore, it was found that opening the front to management proposals, suggestions or criticisms of the employees is a key aspect to make the workplace a more democratic and favorable place to discussions relevant to the interests of all employees.

Pendahuluan: Tunanetra merupakan istilah yang digunakan untuk kondisi seseorang yang mengalami gangguan dalam indera penglihatannya. Keterbatasan fisik yang dialami oleh tunanetra menyebabkan pengetahuan tentang kesehatan gigi dan mulut sulit didapatkan dan cenderung memiliki tingkat kebersihan gigi dan mulut yang rendah. Oleh karena itu diperlukan pendekatan khusus agar pengetahuan dan kebersihan gigi dan mulut dapat meningkat. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis pengaruh edukasi kesehatan gigi dan mulut berbasis Braille terhadap tingkat kebersihan gigi dan mulut penyandang tunanetra. Metode: Jenis penelitian ini merupakan pre-eksperimental dengan desain penelitian one-group pretest-posttest design. Subjek penelitian berjumlah 18 siswa penyandang tunanetra SLB-A TPA dan SLB Negeri Jember yang diberikan edukasi berupa buku panduan kesehatan gigi dan mulut berbasis buku Braille. Subjek diminta untuk menjaga kebersihan gigi dan mulut salah satunya dengan menyikat gigi dua kali sehari selama 21 hari. Pengukuran tingkat kebersihan gigi dan mulut dilakukan menggunakan indeks OHI-S Green dan Vermillion. Pengukuran dilakukan pada hari ke-1 (evaluasi 1) sebelum diberi perlakuan dan pelatihan sikat gigi, hari ke-10 (evaluasi 2), dan hari ke-21 (evaluasi 3). Data dianalisis dengan uji komparatif parametrik paired sample t-test. Hasil: Distribusi data adalah normal dengan p-value (p>0,05) sebesar 0,200 (evaluasi 1), 0,126 (evaluasi 2), dan 0,118 (evaluasi 3). Edukasi yang diberikan selama 10 hari tidak menurunkan indeks OHI-S dengan p-value 0,317 (p>0,05). Edukasi selama 21 hari dapat menurunkan indeks OHI-S dengan p-value sebesar 0,000 (p<0,05). Simpulan: Pemberian edukasi kesehatan gigi dan mulut berbasis buku Braille pada penyandang tunanetra di SLB-A-TPA dan SLB Negeri   Jember berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan kebersihan gigi dan mulut.Kata kunci: Tunanetra, edukasi, Braille, kebersihan gigi dan mulut, OHI-S. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Visual impairment is a term used for the condition of a person who has a disturbance in the sense of sight. Physical limitations experienced by visually impaired individual make the knowledge regarding oral health difficult to obtain and tends to have a low level of oral hygiene. Therefore, a personal approach is needed so that the oral health knowledge and oral hygiene can be improved. This study was conducted to analyse the effect of Braille-based oral health education on the level of the visually impaired students’ oral hygiene. Methods: This research was pre-experimental research with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Research subjects were 18 students with a visual impairment from Special School-A TPA and Public Special School of Jember who were given education in the form of oral health manuals in the form of Braille books. Subjects were asked to maintain their oral hygiene by brushing their teeth twice a day for 21 days. Measurement of the oral hygiene level was carried out using the Green and Vermillion OHI-S index. Measurements were made on day 1 (evaluation 1) before being treated and trained in toothbrushes; day 10 (evaluation 2); and day 21 (evaluation 3). The data were analysed by the paired sample t-test parametric comparative analysis. Results: Data distribution was normal with p-value > 0.05 of (p = 0.200) (evaluation 1), 0.126 (evaluation 2), and 0.118 (evaluation 3). The counselling was conducted for ten days and had not reduced the OHI-S index, with a p-value of 0.317 (p > 0.05). Counselling then continued for 21 days and was able to reduce the OHI-S index with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Providing Braille books-based oral health education to visually impaired students in Special School-A TPA and Public Special School of Jember improving their oral hygiene.Keywords: Visual impairment, education, Braille, oral hygiene, OHI-S.
