O presente estudo tem como propósito, através de revista de literatura, verificar as principais alterações estomatológicas na terceira idade. O edentulismo ainda é muito comum. O uso de próteses pode ocasionar o surgimento de lesões como estomatite, candidíase, hiperplasias e úlceras. Concluiu-se que a saúde bucal dos idosos brasileiros é precária e o uso de serviços odontológicos bastante incipiente. São necessários investimentos públicos em saúde bucal para reverter essa situação dos idosos com políticas concretas de ações preventivas, educativas, curativas e de reabilitação oral.

Comunicação pública, transparência e políticas públicas: avaliação de informações em portais brasileiros de governo

An expansion of the professional field of Public Relations can be seen nowadays, influenced by factors such as the increasing use of information and communications technologies for the dissemination of information on public management and the potential creation of dialogue between government and citizens. Despite this trend, there is still a need for specific knowledge about normative aspects of public communication generated by governments on the internet and its role in the fulfillment of the right to information. This article offers a contribution to fulfill the gap of guidelines and standards for professional performance. It describes the results of empirical research which identified the potential contribution of government web portals of the main cities of São Paulo, in the southeastern Brazil, to the strengthening of citizenship, considered in its dimension of exercising the right to information about public policies, particularly those which have an impact on education. The depth and breadth of information were investigated according with twelve categories of evaluation: history; diagnoses; goals; goals; resources and current actions; planned resources and actions; efficiency; effectiveness; impact; cost-effectiveness; user satisfaction; and equity. The data found on the analyzed portals correspond to the average of 11% of which was considered, under the theoretical-methodological context of the research, as information necessary to comprise the full characterization of a public policy in relation to the categories of assessment. Opportunities to improve government web portals were detected, for which we suggest communication management strategies.

Esferas de sociabilidade na formação dos valores profissionais dos estudantes brasileiros: entre a educação universitária e o mercado de trabalho

A partir de um questionário aplicado a alunos de Jornalismo, a pesquisa visa mapear como esses estudantes se posicionam em relação aos valores formadores da cultura e da ética profissional, bem como avaliar quais são as práticas profissionais consideradas validadas ou não por eles. Foi feito um cruzamento de dados entre os estudantes dos primeiros e dos últimos anos, entre os alunos do sexo feminino e masculino, entre os que já atuam no mercado de trabalho e os que ainda não exercem a atividade profissional e entre os estudantes de diferentes posicionamentos políticos. Isso permitiu observar quais são as mudanças de valores que os estudantes passam ao longo do curso, além de uma medição dos fatores de influência em relação às diversas esferas de sociabilidade. Dentre os cruzamentos, a maior amplitude das diferenças de respostas foi obtida entre alunos que já trabalham e os que ainda não, o que nos leva a repensar o papel da tríade ensino-pesquisa-extensão nas faculdades de Jornalismo.

Intelectuais brasileiros em disputa pela Escola Nova na década de 1930

In the first decades of the last century, Brazilian intellectuals played an im- portant role in the new configuration to the country reached. Brazil had then passed by rapid process of moderniza- tion. The educational field was place of contention between different currents of intellectuals. The idea was to create a new society through what is called the New School. In Brazil, unlike in Europe, most of the population had no access to school. Therefore, the New School was not privileged to critique existing school system, but the actual construction of the large Brazilian childhood schooling. Thus, we crea- ted libraries in teaching urban school groups, with the aim of improving the training of primary school teachers in the pedagogical ideas of the New School. This work has for objective to understand the conflicts among Brazi- lian intellectuals on the list of recommended readings for teacher training schools in the first half of the twentieth century. This paper presents an exam- ple of this intellectual dispute through the analysis of a Brazilian school li- brary copy of the 1930s.

Justificativas para o ensino de Astronomia: o que dizem os pesquisadores brasileiros?

We present here a qualitative analysis of a sample of papers published in Brazilian science education journals, which expresses researchers discourses related to Astronomy Education. Within this analytical universe, we sought for discursive excerpts about their justifications for the teaching of this subject, which made the basis for the production of a collective discourse, which identity is socially represented by the researchers authors set. Setting up articulations with discourse analysis, the procedures of the collective subject discourse show to be an important methodological tool to answer to the central question of this study: what do the Brazilian researchers assert as justifications for teaching Astronomy? In other words: why teach Astronomy? Outcomes point to the retaking of reflections about the importance of matters like as Astronomy in formal education, catalyzing teachers work innovative articulations.
