O sector da construção é responsável por uma grande percentagem da degradação do meio ambiente. É absolutamente necessário actuarmos a todos os níveis - desde os pequenos edifícios até aos grandes empreendimentos - no sentido de não comprometermos o futuro das gerações vindouras. Neste artigo evidenciam-se práticas de projecto e construtivas de simples aplicação, que podem e devem desde já ser implementadas no sentido da construção de edifícios sustentáveis. Estas práticas enquadram-se em quatro grandes áreas: gestão energética; gestão da água; gestão de materiais e gestão de resíduos de construção e demolição.

Este relatório resulta das ações desenvolvidas no contexto da Prática de Ensino Supervisionada (PES) do Mestrado em Ensino das Ciências no 3º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e Secundário com a turma A do oitavo ano da Escola Básica Dr. António João Eusébio no ano letivo 2009/2010. Pretendi neste documento realizar uma fundamentação teórica de conteúdos relacionados com o ensino, procurando incidir sobre os que são referidos na descrição da PES, à qual se segue uma análise e reflexão sobre as práticas desenvolvidas e opções tomadas durante os momentos da PES e para concluir uma reflexão final do trabalho desenvolvido. A análise e reflexão da PES incidiu nos seguintes itens: projeto educativo de escola, caraterização da escola de acolhimento e do meio envolvente, caraterização da turma, orientações curriculares, planificações para o desenvolvimento dos conteúdos, análise do manual escolar, estratégias e pedagogias exploradas, materiais e métodos, análise dos resultados e atividades extracurriculares. Em suma, este relatório pretende apresentar o que foi a minha prática de ensino supervisionada e todo o processo que lhe esteve subjacente. Aprender a ensinar é uma construção continuada do professor ao longo da vida, é a construção do seu saber e das suas aptidões, mas também da sua capacidade de discernir e de agir. Considero que a PES decorreu de forma bastante satisfatória e foi para mim um momento de crescimento profissional e pessoal.

In the European Union the turn towards renewable energy sources has increased the production of biodiesel from rapeseed oil, leaving glycerol (also known as glycerin) as a valuable by-product. For every litre of biodiesel produced, approximately 79 g of crude glycerol are generated. As the biodiesel production grows, the quantity of crude glycerol generated will be considerable and its utilization will become an urgent topic. One possibility is the use of crude glycerol on animal feeds. Glycerol has been evaluated as a dietary energy source for several farm animals, including fish. A study was undertaken to assess the effect of dietary biodiesel-derived glycerol (from rapeseed oil) on the overall growth performance, digestive capacity and metabolic nutrient utilization in juvenile gilthead seabream fed a low fishmeal level diet. Two practical diets were formulated to be isonitrogenous (crude protein, 45.4% DM), isolipidic (18.5% DM) and isoenergetic (gross energy, 21.3 kJ/g DM). The control diet (CTRL) was formulated with intermediate levels of marine-derived proteins (19%). In the same basal formulation, 5% glycerol (GLY) was incorporated at the expenses of wheat. Each dietary treatment was tested in triplicate tanks over 63 days, with 20 gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata), with a mean initial body weight (IBW) of 27.9 0.12 g. At the end of the trial, fish fed the CTRL diet reached a final body weight of 84.3 2.2 g (more than 3-fold increase of initial body weight). Fish fed the GLY diet showed a significantly higher (P<0.05) growth, expressed in terms of final body weight and specific growth rate. Voluntary feed intake was similar between the two treatments, but both feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio were significantly improved (P<0.05) in fish fed the GLY diet. Dietary glycerol had no effect (P>0.05) on the apparent digestibility of protein. In comparison to the control treatment, dietary glycerol significantly improved (P<0.05) protein and fat retention. Activities of digestive enzymes were significantly affected by the various dietary treatments. Fish fed the GLY diet showed an enhanced activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and pepsin, while activities of lipase and leucine-alanine peptidase (LAP) were little affected by dietary glycerol. Fish show the ability to use crude glycerol as a dietary energy substrate.

Gilthead seabream is the most important farmed species in the Mediterranean, and knowledge on how common farming practices impact its quality is limited. As such, this Thesis aimed to evaluate how gilthead seabream flesh quality is affected by some of these practices. In Chapter 2, the influence of nutritional factors was evaluated, specifically the high replacement of traditional marine-derived ingredients, both fishmeal and fish oil, with vegetable sources. We have seen that the vegetable-based diets tested did not greatly impact seabream flesh quality, although some alterations were seen in the fatty acid profile of the muscle. However, and despite having caused no alterations in flesh texture, vegetable ingredients reduced the amount of sulphated glycosaminoglycans in the extracellular matrix, affected muscle pH and reduced the activity of proteolytic enzymes. Throughout this Thesis, we measured for the first time the activity of proteolytic enzymes in seabream muscle, and cathepsin B was found to play a pivotal role in post-mortem muscle degradation. In Chapter 3, we evaluated the effect of harvesting and slaughter stress on seabream quality, and contrary to what is seen in most farmed species, our results show that gilthead seabream muscle structure is highly resistant to changes caused by stressful events. Nonetheless, considering that welfare is an increasingly important quality criterion, the use of a zero-withdrawal anaesthetic as a rested harvest technique or even slaughter method could prove valuable to the industry. In Chapter 4, we used maslinic acid as a dietary supplement, to modulate the muscle’s energetic status pre-mortem. As a finishing strategy, maslinic acid failed to increase levels of glycogen and ATP in the muscle. However, supplementation resulted in higher muscle fibre diameter and lower cathepsin B activity, and maslinic acid is likely to be useful to promote growth in this species. In general our Thesis has generated new knowledge to a major challenge facing the aquaculture industry, which is to find a compromise between the trends towards intensive rearing and consumer demand for healthy, high quality seafood being ethically acceptable and having a low impact on the environment.
