COST (European Co-operation in the field of scientific and technical research) is the longest running framework for research co-operation iri Europe, having been established in 1971 by a Ministerial Conference attended by Ministers for Science and Technology from 19 countries. Today COST is used by the scientific communities of 35 European countries to cooperate in exchanging knowledge and technology developed within research projects supported by national or European funds. The main objective of COST is to contribute to the realization of the European Research Área (ERA) anticipating and complementing the activities of the' Framework Programmes, constituting a "bridge" towards the scientific communities of emerging countries, increasing the mobility of researchers across Europe and fostering the establishment of "Networks of Excelience". Another essential objective is the knowledge transfer between the scientific soc'iety and industry. It is widely acknowledged that European scientific performance in relation to investment in science is excellent but technological and commercial performance has steadily worsened. The present paper discusses how the COST Action's instruments, from training schools to short scientific missions and workshops have been used within The COST ACTION FP11O1 Assessment, Reinforcement and Monitoring of Timber Structures to achieve such objectives.

Attention to transferable skills is growing in higher education. Problem-based learning (PBL) is increasingly used in management education for its promising potential to, amongst others, promote transferable skills, including problem-solving, critical thinking and teamwork skills. However, this relationship is seldom assessed. In this study, I use structural equation modelling to examine the effectiveness of PBL, measured through students’ perceptions of satisfaction and skills development. Results show the development of transferable skills is explained by interaction with tutors and a host company, and defining teamwork rules. Satisfaction is explained by skills development, assessment issues, defining teamwork rules and understanding how organisations work. I draw conclusions and recommendations.

As modernas ideias científicas e tecnológicas da Europa mais desenvolvida transpoem fronteiras e institucionalizam-se em Portugal com a denominada Reforma Pombalina da Universidade de Coimbra (1770-72), no reinado de D. José. Mais: não só chega a Portugal o pensamento moderno da época como, antecipando a reforma do ensino universitário no resto da Europa, o ensino universitário português faz uma aposta clara nas ciências matemáticas, físicas e naturais, bem como num ensino experimental/laboratorial. Anos mais tarde, no reinado de D. Maria, surgem outros projectos educativos e científicos igualmente modernos tais como o da criação de uma Academia Real da Marinha (1779) ou o de uma Academia Real das Ciências (1779) e idealiza-se um projeto, porventura, ainda mais revolucionário: o da criação de uma instituição de ensino – também de ciências ditas superiores – destinada, na sua génese, a orfãos e desvalidos à qual se chamou Casa Pia de Lisboa (1780), e que alguns autores reportam como sendo uma “universidade plebeia”. Com base em documentação autógrafa, ainda inédita, recentemente descoberta nos Fundos Setecentistas do Arquivo da Casa de Mateus, exploraremos o papel fundamental que José Anastácio da Cunha (1744-1787) – militar, matemático e poeta – desempenhou na concepção do Plano de Estudos para a instituição; em particular para o colégio de S. Lucas, consagrado às classes científicas.

Sustainability-related skills are becoming more and more relevant for a proficient and professional engineering practice. Industrial engineers in particular, given their broad field of intervention and being at the heart of industrial activity, hold a great deal of potential and responsibility in providing and delivering best industrial practices, that support enhanced industrial systems and products. Therefore making a real contribution in generating wealth and income for all the companies’ stakeholders, including local communities, as well as adding up to more sustainable ecosystems. Previous work by the authors focused on studying the inclusion of this subject on the education of industrial engineers, especially through active-learning methodologies, as well as presenting results on the use of one such approach. The study conducted tried to identify the impacts on sustainability learning using a given specific activity, i.e. a workshop on industrial ecology, held in the 2014/2015 academic year on the Integrated MSc degree on Industrial Engineering and Management at the University of Minho, Portugal. The study uses content analysis of student teams’ reports for two consecutive academic years. The former did not include one such workshop, while the latter did. The Fink taxonomy was used in the discussion of results and reflection. The study outcomes aimed at supporting decision making on worthiness of investment on similar education instruments for sustainability competency development. Some results of the study highlight that: (1) the workshop seem to globally have a positive contribution on the sustainability learning; (2) a number of dimensions of the Life cycle design strategy wheel was developed, but the approach was not broadly used, (3) There was a mismatch on the workshop schedule; (4) students enjoy the workshop; (5) a clearer endorsement on relevance of this aspect is required. Suggestions for future work are also issued.

Business Intelligence (BI) can be seen as a method that gathers information and data from information systems in order to help companies to be more accurate in their decision-making process. Traditionally BI systems were associated with the use of Data Warehouses (DW). The prime purpose of DW is to serve as a repository that stores all the relevant information required for making the correct decision. The necessity to integrate streaming data became crucial with the need to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the decision process. In primary and secondary education, there is a lack of BI solutions. Due to the schools reality the main purpose of this study is to provide a Pervasive BI solution able to monitoring the schools and student data anywhere and anytime in real-time as well as disseminating the information through ubiquitous devices. The first task consisted in gathering data regarding the different choices made by the student since his enrolment in a certain school year until the end of it. Thereafter a dimensional model was developed in order to be possible building a BI platform. This paper presents the dimensional model, a set of pre-defined indicators, the Pervasive Business Intelligence characteristics and the prototype designed. The main contribution of this study was to offer to the schools a tool that could help them to make accurate decisions in real-time. Data dissemination was achieved through a localized application that can be accessed anywhere and anytime.

O sistema de colocação dos professores do ensino secundário em Portugal é um sistema centralizado, gerido pelo governo, mais precisamente pelo Ministério da Educação e Ciência. É um sistema que todos os anos apresenta problemas e, por esse motivo, é alvo de críticas por parte dos seus intervenientes, sobretudo pelos professores. Este artigo pretende identificar esses problemas, para isso efetuou-se uma revisão sistemática e uma meta análise de como é efetuada a colocação de professores em Portugal. Pretendeu-se ainda perceber e descrever como este sistema funciona na União Europeia. Para se encontrar soluções de melhoria para o sistema de colocação de professores efetuaram-se entrevistas a dirigentes escolares. Finalmente, a partir das soluções encontradas em países da União Europeia e das soluções oriundas das opiniões dos dirigentes escolares, são apresentados um conjunto de requisitos que o sistema de colocação de professores deve ter em atenção, de forma a evitar os problemas identificados.
