Resumo: Alguns educadores e educandos estão descontentes com o atual sistema de ensino. Com as inúmeras transformações sociais a maneira de ensinar e aprender também foram modificando ao longo dos anos, assim tanto professores quanto alunos percebem algumas práticas pedagógicas como desatualizadas. Sabemos que as transformações são inevitáveis e necessárias, todavia o desafio fica estabelecido para os professores que necessitam adequar ensino, aprendizagem, tecnologias e sociedade às suas práticas diárias mudando ou reformulando sua didática. Dessa forma o presente artigo objetiva enfatizar a importância da didática, através de discussões acerca das linhas pedagógicas, da formação do professor e do papel da didática proporcionando reflexões que permitam novos olhares sobre o ensino-aprendizagem.  Mediante a esse contexto para lecionar é necessária formação didática? O domínio do conteúdo é mais importante para o desempenho do professor do que a didática? Apresenta-se um estudo de abordagem qualitativa através de uma pesquisa bibliográfica. Conclui-se, dessa forma, que como disciplina importante e fundamental a didática conduz o trabalho, unindo teoria e prática permitindo um processo de aprendizagem significativa.Palavras-chave: Didática; prática; formaçãoAbstrat: Some educators and students are unhappy with the current education system. With the countless social changes, the way of teaching and learning have also changed over the years, so that both teachers and students perceive some pedagogical practices as outdated. We know that transformations are inevitable and necessary, however the challenge is established for teachers who need to adapt teaching, learning, technologies and society to their daily practices by changing or reformulating their didactics. Thus, this article aims to emphasize the importance of didactics, through discussions about pedagogical lines, teacher training and the role of didactics providing reflections that allow new perspectives on teaching-learning. Through this context, to teach is didactic training necessary? Is the mastery of content more important for teacher performance than didactics? A study with a qualitative approach is presented through a bibliographic search. It is concluded, therefore, that as an important and fundamental discipline, didactics conduct the work, uniting theory and practice allowing a meaningful learning process.Keyword: Didactics - practice - training

In this article, we reflect on the variables to be considered when teaching in English a subject of the bachelor’s degree of Computer Engineering: “Learning Professional Skills for Engineers”. In order to make this study, we start from an analysis of the recent history of teaching in English at university level and the institutional context in which it happens. Three research questions are posed, with the intent to check what minimum conditions must be met to be able to teach this subject in English. The results lead us to conclude that the option of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) is not the appropriate one, taking into account both the linguistic and didactic training of the teaching staff and the language accreditation of the students. However, it is feasible to opt for the Integrating Content and Language in Higher Education (ICLHE) option.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to implement and track the outcomes of a yearlong, structured mentoring program aimed at enhancing the retention and success of underrepresented graduate and undergraduate students in speech-language pathology. Method Student participants were recruited following an open application process and based on meeting eligibility requirements and committing to program completion. The focus of this program was to provide didactic training on leadership development, culturally responsive practice, and research methods used in speech-language pathology. This program emphasized participant needs assessments and goal-setting, access to one-on-one and group mentoring by peers and professionals, and a culminating experience in which participant teams completed a supervised clinical research project or a community outreach and education project. Results Forty-six participants in three cohorts completed the yearlong program in three consecutive years. Positive outcomes included program completion, degree completion, student perceptions of program benefit, completion of innovative community-engaged and research projects, and dissemination of scholarly work. Conclusion Our findings from implementing this program and tracking its outcomes have implications for using innovative, equity-minded, and evidence-based strategies for retaining and mentoring minoritized students in speech-language pathology.

Training focused on recognizing when a medical procedure has not been implemented effectively may reduce preventable battlefield deaths. Although important research has been conducted about a range of error recovery training strategies, few studies have been conducted in the context of training for high stakes, dynamic domains such as combat medic training. We conducted a literature review to examine how error recovery training has been designed in other contexts, with the intent of abstracting recommendations for designing error recovery training to support military personnel providing emergency field medicine. Implications for combat medic training include: 1) a focus on error management rather than error avoidance, 2) a didactic training component may support training engagement and mental model development, 3) an experiential component may be designed to support perceptual skill development and anomaly detection, and 4) feedback should focus on allowing learners to make errors and encouraging them to learn from errors.

Since 2014, select states have allowed pharmacists to prescribe hormonal contraception (HC). This study describes student pharmacists’ perceptions of a pharmacist’s scope of practice, education, and interest, and identifies differences between students who have completed didactic HC content in their professional curriculum versus those who have not. A voluntary online survey was emailed to all students in three Georgia pharmacy schools. Descriptive statistics were reported. Likert square responses were dichotomized, and Chi square testing identified differences between groups. A total of 1256 students were invited, 35% completed the survey, of those 68% had received HC didactic content in their curriculum. Regardless of HC education, most students “agree” or “strongly agree” that pharmacists are adequately educated to prescribe HC (92% vs. 86%, p = 0.05) and prescribing HC is within the pharmacist’s scope of practice (89% vs. 84%, p = 0.12). Although not currently permitted in Georgia, most are interested in prescribing (97% vs. 96%, p = 0.5). Of the students who have received HC didactic content, 87% felt “moderately”, “well”, or “extremely well-educated” regarding HC prescribing clinical skills. Regardless of didactic training, pharmacy students believe pharmacists are prepared to prescribe HC and support pharmacist-prescribed HC as a part of their future professional scope of practice.

The purpose of this article is to highlight the factors that decisively affect the effectiveness of the teacher in fulfilling his role, giving special importance to his pedagogical and didactic training. Initially, the role of the teacher is approached in relation to the mission of the school and the characteristics of an effective teacher. Subsequently, the content and the importance of pedagogical and didactic training for the exercise of the educational work are approached, as well as the additional reasons that impose it. In addition, the existing pedagogical and didactic training of current teachers is approached, in relation to the consequences of its absence for the educational process and the student. The article concludes with the final findings and remarks.

Abstract: This article presents a partial excerpt from an ongoing master's research on the methodological theoretical aspects of problems related to the content of volumes, selected from the evaluations of the National High School Exam (ENEM). The Exam consists of a test proposed by the Brazilian federal government, which aims to assess the performance of students at the end of high school, in addition to being used as a selection criterion to enter higher education. In this way, a didactic situation is proposed in the context of ENEM structured in the Theory of Didactic Situations (TSD) and subsidized by the use of the GeoGebra software as a technological resource for the construction and resolution of the problem situation on the volume of a cylinder. The didactic session was consolidated in Didactic Training Engineering (EDF) and developed to design a didactic resource for teaching and training mathematics teachers. GeoGebra was used to carry out the didactic transposition of the problem, as it benefits the student to break the difficulties inherent in the understanding and appropriation of geometric concepts. This structure facilitates didactic mediation, in addition to giving a new meaning to the study and teaching of volumes in the context of ENEM assessments.
