The period 1969-74 is known as Years of Lead, a reference to the violence of the Medici government in repressing those who opposed the civil-military dictatorship. It was a time marked by strong repression of political organizations and censorship of artistic productions. In 1973, in the midst of this process, the band Secos & Molhados emerged as a marketing phenomenon, bringing a disguised critique of the military dictatorship - and a clear criticism of the customs - in the Brazilian music scene, selling thousands of records and attracting countless people to their shows. The group was particularly surprised to blend a strong sense of virility, not only through the voice, but also through the performance, imparting to the spectacle the idea of ​​two poles that repel and attract each other: male and female, male and female. Thus, we intend to analyze the possibility of sexual liberation, in vogue in Brazil, through the performance of the musical group Secos & Molhados.

  The use of Assistive Technology (AT) brings relevant meanings in the process of teaching and learning mathematics for students with and without disabilities. The AT encompasses resources, methodologies, strategies and pedagogical practices capable of helping in the effectiveness of the educational process aimed at guaranteeing autonomy, independence, quality of life and social inclusion of students with disabilities. Given the importance of AT arises the need to ascertain the facilities and difficulties of teachers when using them in school routine. This article aims to investigate and evaluate the use of AT in the process of teaching and learning mathematics of blind elementary students in regular classes. The methodology, of qualitative nature, used the interview with the pedagogical coordination of a Class School located in Plano Piloto in Brasília-DF about the use of AT in mathematics classes, for the production of data. The results of this research show how the use of AT can contribute to pedagogical practices in the process of teaching and learning mathematics as facilitators of understanding and development of content and promoting school inclusion.

Any epidemic that plagues a country is traumatic, hard and difficult not only to pass, but to assimilate as well. Imagine then a pandemic! It should be something to remember for future generations. But is that really how it happens? Do we learn from the mistakes of the past so that we will not practice them again in the future? The focus that guides this work is to carry out an epistemological analysis under the contemporary sociology bias of the COVID-19 pandemic that humanity is going through, reflecting on what it can mean for everyone, the lessons we can (and should) learn, the mistakes committed before and after it and possible ways to not only overcome it, but to overcome ourselves. It is a theoretical-bibliographic research of literature review.

This article aims to reflect on the difficulties, interests, and knowledge of young people regarding higher education and the job market. The constitution occurs through an exploratory research, carried out with young people from a public school in the region of the city of Ceilândia, as the information collected is characterized by socio-demographic and socio-economic data of these students. It is noticed that most of them are low-class students, unable to attend a good institution of higher education, it was also observed that a percentage of this public lives in peripheral neighborhoods. With the collection of these data, it is also possible to see that students intend to pursue a public career and their main difficulties in achieving such objectives are the financial resources and the opportunities to enter the university to achieve this objective.

This article addresses the Covid-19 pandemic and its impacts on education. Its main goal is to highlight the key impacts on public and private schools, teachers, students and families affected. It specifically aims to reflect on the pandemic and the challenges faced by all players in the educational context, as well as identifying the need to foster equitable public policies for all the different realities affected in this crisis. The study is justified by the relevance of the historical moment in which we are living, as well as being essential to expand the spaces for discussion regarding the pandemic and its effects. As method, exploratory qualitative research in several articles of scientific journals and legal documents were used. The results show that despite the inequalities faced by the realities of public and private schools, teachers, students and families have made great efforts to adapt themselves to remote education, as an emergency, among other demands. The present work concludes the exercise of resilience to live, overcome and (re) invent in the midst of this crisis.

The need to overcome fragmented and reductionist teaching in search of contemporary and meaningful learning has promoted this research to the current pedagogical strategies for transdisciplinary mathematics education. There are already initiatives, but mathematics education still needs to be further studied in a broader educational context, transcending curricular barriers and reaching spaces that provide changes and innovation in the way of teaching. There is room to go deeper and many opportunities to be invested in new strategies.
