O discurso oficial transmitido pelos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN’s), em especial os PCN´s de Geografia, tem incorporado diversos termos e expressões provenientes do discurso acadêmico que tratam do fenômeno educacional. Se, por um lado, tal constatação pode demonstrar atualização e comprometimento com as formulações teóricas atuais, sob outra perspectiva, exige atenção. Os termos “democratização do ensino” ou “educação para a cidadania”, que antes eram mais afeitos ao discurso de oposição às políticas públicas para o setor, na atualidade foram tomados como discurso oficial, como se ambos os discursos tivessem um mesmo significado. Considerando que as prescrições programáticas de conteúdos buscam criar normas relativas a certas diretrizes de políticas educacionais e, também, determinar perspectivas pedagógicas, a forma como estão apresentadas abrem a possibilidade de veicularem conceitos, códigos e expressões que passam a ser elementos centrais do discurso pedagógico de instituições, sem que seus significados práticos ou teóricos recebam uma análise mais profunda entre os agentes envolvidos no trabalho da escola.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Low back pain is a common disease in several industrialized countries, being a public health and incapacity problem, especially among economically active people. This study aimed at grouping and updating knowledge about motor control exercises for low back pain. CONTENTS: Cochrane, Medline (Pubmed) and PEDro databases were queried in the period from 2000 to 2010, using the keywords low back pain, stabilization, multifidus, transversus, exercise and training. Six randomized clinical trials were found, which have shown that such exercises may be indicated for acute low back pain to prevent recurrences, in addition to their indication to decrease chronic low back pain and incapacity. CONCLUSION: Motor control exercises do not improve pain and incapacity in acute cases, but are effective for chronic cases to relieve pain, decrease incapacities and improve quality of life.

In-Car Navigation System and Route Guidance (RGNS), commercial or free, have adopted different graphic designs to maps which support the navigation task. This paper aims at evaluating the driver's subjective preference for colors to represent route and arrow direction in maps for these systems. A total of 54 drivers (27 males and 27 females) participated in an experiment which was performed in a parked vehicle. Two cartographic representations were produced to evaluate the route color and other two for the arrow color. The route was symbolized by black or blue color and the arrow direction by green or red hue. The cartographic representations were presented in a seven-inch navigation monitor. The results indicate that most drivers prefer the navigation route in black color. However, drivers who regularly use navigation systems have presented the tendency to prefer the route in blue hue. The direction arrow in green hue was the mostly preferred by the drivers and there was no significant correlation between different individual characteristics. This study concludes that drivers' preference was influenced by different factors, such as grouping by color, shape and proximity, subjective or conventional association, as well as by the level of contrast among the map features. Evaluating the performance of cartographic representations in route following task is recommended, in order to support the influence of graphic designs to maps in usability of route guidance systems.

Here we present, for the first time, a glossary of biometeorological terms. The glossary aims to address the need for a reliable source of biometeorological definitions, thereby facilitating communication and mutual understanding in this rapidly expanding field. A total of 171 terms are defined, with reference to 234 citations. It is anticipated that the glossary will be revisited in coming years, updating terms and adding new terms, as appropriate. The glossary is intended to provide a useful resource to the biometeorology community, and to this end, readers are encouraged to contact the lead author to suggest additional terms for inclusion in later versions of the glossary as a result of new and emerging developments in the field.
