Transpondo o abismo: a construção de perfis de cientistas

From the dyagnosis that science has become apart from mainstream culture and everyday life, we discuss in this article the representation of characters and actions which are part of science-making in three profiles published by piauí magazine: “Entre ratos”, by Raquel Freire Zangrandi, “Artur tem um problema”, by João Moreira Salles, and “Com a mão na massa (cerebral)”, by Dorrit Harazim. In constrast, we also analyze the profiles presented in the book Gigantes da ciência, by Philipe Cane, and the series Os cientistas, published by Abril. From this we may consider that the group of texts published by piaui, which are structured according to literary journalism techniques, bring the reader closer to the making of science and the profiled characters, although they still narrate too little of their private lives.

Subtitling as a pedagogical tool for language teaching in journalism

This study was designed to present and discuss some results produced by a research involving the use of English subtitles of some news videos from the webiste Reuters.com (http://www.reuters.com) with pedagogical reasons in a Brazilian context (Academic English for Journalism). We have developed the research during two semesters at UNESP (Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho). The professor in charge of the study has chosen the students of Journalism as the audience to whom the videos were presented. The assumptions of many theorists and experts in Audiovisual Translation were adopted as our Theoretical Sources. The first step of the study was the assessment of the syllabus of each course. This was very helpful as a guidance in order to choose the most relevant and interesting videos for students. After the evaluation of academic and professional interests, we chose some videos to insert appropriate subtitles, according to some strategies suggested by Panayota Georgakopoulou and Henrik Gottlieb. Finally we presented the videos during the English classes. At the first time, they were presented without subtitles just to notice the comprehension level of the students. After that, the videos were presented with English subtitles. As we first assumed, the students haven’t had the whole comprehension of specific details during the first presentation, they have just used their previous knowledge and the visual aids to help them in a superficial understanding of the news. As the subtitles appear, the process of communication was finally accomplished.

Por uma práxis da comunicação na formação de um comunicador comunicólogo

What is the place of theory in the field of communication? From this epistemological inquiry, this paper examines the tensions and connections between theory and practice in the discipline of Communication. It discusses the segmentation of Undergraduate courses of Communication in Journalism, Public Relations, Advertising, and Radio and the emphasis on technical and vocational training that occurs in the communicator’s education. It discusses some components of the new curriculum guidelines of the course of Journalism and articulates this segmentation with the Postgraduate area. The paper also discusses the deduction and induction movements in the construction of the area’s knowledge and advocates a dialectical examination of the relationship between science and experience, theory and practice, leading to a praxis of communication.

Mídia e desenvolvimento social no documentário transmídia

The genre documentary in itself characterized by citizen emancipation from the content discussed in his works. Termed as images of the people by Jean-Claude Bernardet (2003), the documentary is gaining traction in social development when added to citizen participation offered by transmedia storytelling. This study presents the results obtained from a literature search, the film analysis and experimentation supported in quasi-experimental methodology, results that support these conditions. Hopefully, from this discussion, consolidate the systematic development of transmedia documentary works in new media ecology and that maximizes the role of journalism by a traditionally audiovisual platform, now with other strands to the representation of the news.

Gêneros e formatos: a web como espaço legitimado da Folkcomunicação

O estudo sobre a folkcomunicação foi um dos principais legados de Luiz Beltrão em sua batalha para conscientizar os estudantes de jornalismo quanto à comunicação coletiva e a seus múltiplos desdobramentos. A atualidade da pesquisa desse pioneiro tem despertado o interesse de diversos grupos, não só no Brasil, mas também na América Latina e em países europeus. Se, por um lado, a rapidez da sociedade da informação possibilita a criação cotidiana de "um mundo novo" de informações, com a oferta cada vez mais veloz de conhecimento exige, por outro, que toda essa gama de dados que circulam pelas "infovias" comunicacionais faça parte do cotidiano das pessoas quase que em tempo real. Esse ultimato se insere no mundo do trabalho, do lazer, da economia, da política, da cultura em uma aparente cobrança da inserção do indivíduo nesse contexto. Esse tem sido um dos motes principais de articulação da Rede (GOBBI, 2006). A pesquisa que estamos realizando busca conhecer, mapear, sistematizar os dados que estão sendo disponibilizados na rede mundial sobre a Folkcomunicação, tratando mais especificamente da Folkcomunicação Icônica, Formato Funerário e Folkcomunicação cinética, Formato: Rito de passagem, conforme definiu o professor José Marques de Melo, em seu trabalho sobre Gêneros e formatos folkcomunicacionais: aproximação taxionômica. Utilizando pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, a análise objetiva verificar quais tipos estão presentes e se há outros formatos e quais são eles.

Ocorrência de lesões de ligamentares e músculo tendíneas ao longo das fases do ciclo menstrual de atletas de alto redimento: um estudo de caso longitudinal

Female athletes are more susceptible to injury when compared with males. This increased risk of injury, may be caused by fertile-menstrual cycle. The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence in the occurrence of muscle-tendon and ligament injuries in different phases of the menstrual cycle over a period of high performance sports training and identify possible differences of occurrences between the phases. Fifteen female athletes, members of a women's basketball team, with ages between 15 and 22 years (average 17.5 ± 2.6 years), with regular menstrual cycles and daily practitioners of training, received follow-up during the menstrual cycle for 5 months. During the period were noted occurrences of injury in relation to the menstrual period of each athlete. The results showed 13 injuries, all of anterior cruciate ligament. The distribution of percentage values indicated a significantly higher risk of athletes suffer injuries in the follicular phase. The result makes us believe that significant elevations in the concentrations of estrogen in this fertile menstrual cycle phase, more open women to a higher risk of performing different injuries.

This article is part of the result of the Master's thesis of the author, guided by coauthor, and presents a theoretical and conceptual reflection on the representation of Technology in thematic sections Technology in four Brazilian newspaper sites.

Paulo, Folha de S. Paulo, Gazeta do Povo and Correio Braziliense. The study confirms the hypothesis that representation of Technology in newspapers is primarily the marketing, have not corresponding to an expectation of social and cultural concept. In addition, it is noticed that the editorial in question do not have specialized journalism characteristics, despite of potential generated by thematic segmentation.
