Efeito de 13 semanas de treinamento físico militar sobre a composição corporal e o desempenho físico dos alunos da escola preparatória de cadetes do exército

INTRODUCTION: Armies from all over the world acknowledge the importance of good physical fitness for the performance of military duties. The Military Exercise Training (MET) attempts to provide assistance to this search for better physical fitness and performance. OBJECTIVE: To verifying the effect on the body composition and physical performance of the students at ESPCEX (Military School for Preparation of Army Cadets) after 13 weeks of MET. METHODS: The sample was formed by 287 male students from the ESPCEX, whose average age was 18.33 ±1.26. Such students accomplished a boarding school routine, having defined schedules, meals and activities from which they were only released during the weekends. The MET was accomplished five days a week and it comprised both aerobic and resistance training. Measurement of body mass, height, skinfold (triceps, abdominal and suprailiac) was accomplished during pre and post training periods, and the following tests were performed: 12-minutes-run, oblique sit up, arm push up and pull up. Fat percentage, fat-free body mass and fat body mass were calculated using the anthropometric data based on the Guedes 3 skinfold protocol. RESULTS: Significant reduction in fat body mass, fat percentage and in triceptal and abdominal skinfold, as well as increase in suprailiac skinfold and fat-free body mass was observed when anthropometric and body composition data were compared, during the initial and the final periods of training. Significant improvement also occurred in all prformed physical tests, in which better performance was achieved. CONCLUSION: The acquired data suggest that performance of MET 5 days a week brought significantly improved body composition as well as physical performance

Among her most notable works are; The Indigo Bird, The Red-Winged Blackbird, and The Pasture Field. The above poem Legacies is one of her most famous works and appears on her gravestone. Wetherald was born in 1857 as the sixth child out of an eventual eleven. Although born in Rockwood Ontario, she spent most of her life in Fenwick (Pelham Township), Ontario, where she died in 1940.

Kompetenzraster aus dem schweizerischen Institut Beatenberg - eine Option für berufliche Schulen in Deutschland?

Der Name einer kleinen Internatsschule im Berner Oberland taucht zunehmend in den Diskussionen über die Gestaltung von selbst organisiertem Lernen auf: Institut Beatenberg. Der Direktor des Instituts, Andreas Müller, und seine Mitarbeiter sind gefragte Referenten auf Veranstaltungen über die Einführung einer Lehr-Lernkultur, die den Lernenden und seine Lernprozesse in den Mittelpunkt der pädagogischen Arbeit stellt. Zudem finden ihre Publikationen zunehmendes Interesse im gesamten deutschsprachigen Raum. Ein Schlüsselinstrument wurde dabei zum Schlagwort: Kompetenzraster. Doch die stellen nur eines der Instrumente dar, die den ‚Wirkungskreislauf des Lernerfolgs’ in Beatenberg stützen. Berufliche Schulen in Hessen und Hamburg haben im Rahmen von Modellprojekten mit der Erarbeitung von Kompetenzrastern nach den Vorbildern in Beatenberg begonnen und versprechen sich damit eine neue, auf selbst organisiertem Lernen aufbauende kompetenzorientierte berufliche Bildung. In dem Beitrag werden die Arbeit mit Kompetenzrastern und den dahinter liegenden ‚Lernlandschaften’ sowie der ‚Wirkungskreislauf den Lernerfolgs’ in Beatenberg kompetenzorientiert dargestellt. Die Dimensionen Definition, Beschreibung, Ordnung, Erwerb, Messung und Anerkennung von Kompetenzen werden herausgearbeitet und die Möglichkeiten von Kompetenzrastern in der beruflichen Bildung kritisch gewürdigt. Der Beitrag ist entlang der genannten Dimensionen gegliedert.

O desenvolvimento verbal e motor da criança institucionalizada e posteriormente adotada

O presente estudo visa a levantar alguns aspectos relevantes relacionados com o estudo de carência da criança institucionalizada. Pretende-se ensaiar uma avaliação do atraso verbal e motor que tal situação acarreta, bem como da recuperação correspondente que a adoção permite. A escassez de tentativas congêneres em nosso meio, visando a trazer à luz dados de realidade sobre este campo, foi o suporte que originou e motivou o presente trabalho. Para esse fim, procedeu-se preliminarmente a uma revisão à literatura, objetivando fundamentar no plano teórico o trabalho não só à luz da psicologia do desenvo1vimento, bem como a luz da legislação relativa à adoção. Realizou-se um estudo exploratório formulando-se o testando-se hipóteses operacionais extraídas da hipótese geral, de haver diferença significativa, em termos do atraso motor e verbal no desenvolvimento e na recuperação motora e verbal em relação a idade inicial e final, bem como a duração da permanência, da criança institucionalizada e posteriormente adotada. As hipóteses foram testadas em termos estatísticos, através do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson adotando um nível de significância de 0,05 para rejeição da hipótese nula.

A produção da subjetividade no contexto institucional de um seminário católico

Esta pesquisa visa estudar a produção da subjetividade no contexto institucional de um Seminário Católico. Este estabelecimento funciona em regime de internato no qual atualmente 70 seminaristas estudam Filosofia durante 3 anos, numa etapa preparatória para o sacerdócio. Pesquisamos o funcionamento da vida institucional através da observação participante e utilizamos entrevistas semi-estruturadas para entender como o seminarista experiencia sua vida. Os resultados preliminares indicam que a vida no contexto institucional do Seminário produz diversas modalizações da subjetividade nos seminaristas internados no estabelecimento: há uma perda considerável de autonomia pessoal, da liberdade de ir e vir, agir e decidir, originando comportamentos de dependência excessiva, de resistência à mudança, de conversão ao papel proposto, de rivalidade fraterna. A contradição detectada entre o aparelho repressivo e o discurso participativo parece produzir nos indivíduos características marcadas pela clivagem e pela recusa.

O internato escolar O Ateneu: produção de subjetividade na instituição total

Dans cet article on cherche à identifier les effets de l'institutionnalisation dans la production de la subjectivité dans un établissement scolaire total. La recherche est basée sur le roman «O Ateneu » de Raul Pompeia, analysé à partir de la théorie de Goffman (1961-1987) relative aux institutions totales. on décrit l itinéraire moral que le personnage Sergio développe, à son entrée à l'internat, évoquant les vicissitudes par lesquelles il passe dans ce contexte institutionnel : période d'adaptation, crises évolutives, initiations sexuelles, problèmes de rivalités, etc. les établissements totaux semblent s'organiser d'une façon caractéristique et fonctionner de manière autonome. on pourra comprendre les problèmes sociaux et les effets sur la subjectivité produite par les institutions totales par l étude des relations de pouvoir subjacentes à ces types d'établissements. Le temps pendant lequel un individu vit comme interné peut laisser des marques profondes dans sa subjectivité et se configure comme un thème personnel approprié.
