Évaluation de l'influence d'une approche pédagogique adaptée axée sur le conte et les habiletés du conteur sur la propension à la lecture des élèves d'une classe de maturation

Le sujet de cette recherche concerne l'évaluation de l'influence d'une approche pédagogique adaptée tenant compte des dimensions affective et cognitive de la clientèle d'une classe de maturation. Cette approche dite "adaptée" utilise le livre, le conte et les habiletés du conteur dans le but de développer une propension à la lecture chez ces élèves. À la lumière des ouvrages des auteurs tels que Jackson, Hayden, Bettelheim, Jean, Held, Michel et Seung sur l'influence affective et cognitive du livre, du conte et des habiletés du conteur chez l'individu ainsi qu'à la lumière du modèle théorique de la compréhension du rôle de l'affectivité relié au processus de la lecture de Mathewson, nous avons formulé l'hypothèse que l'application de l'approche pédagogique adaptée axée sur le conte et les habiletés du conteur augmente la propension à la lecture chez les élèves d'une classe de maturation. La cueillette des données a été réalisée à l'aide de l'évaluation d'un expert (avant et après l'application de l'approche pédagogique adaptée), d'un questionnaire adressé aux sujets, d'un questionnaire adressé aux parents (avant et après l'application de l'approche pédagogique adaptée) et des observations de l'enseignante. L'analyse de l'ensemble des résultats et des observations durant la période de l'expérimentation confirment l'hypothèse de cette recherche.

La censura nelle traduzioni italiane de Il conte di Montecristo

Pubblicato tra il 1844 e il 1846 come romanzo d’appendice, Il conte di Montecristo è un romanzo di Alexandre Dumas di cui la fama è ormai nota e condivisa. Nonostante il grande successo e apprezzamento da parte dei lettori, l’opera ha dovuto affrontare un lungo percorso di rivalutazione. Per molto tempo, la critica colta ha infatti relegato il romanzo ad una letteratura bassa e popolare, aggettivo a lungo considerato ed utilizzato con accezione negativa. Lo scopo dell’elaborato è dunque quello di comprendere come la reputazione dell’opera abbia influito sull’attenzione dedicata alle edizioni integrali e, in particolare, alle traduzioni italiane. Infatti, per più di un secolo, la maggior parte di queste ultime sono state caratterizzate da tagli e modifiche di cui si è voluto mostrare l’impatto e la natura attraverso il confronto di passaggi scelti appartenenti a tre edizioni ritenute rappresentative: l’edizione Laffont del 1993, l’edizione Mondadori del 1984 e l’edizione pubblicata da Donzelli Editore nel 2010.

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type Ii: Identification Of 30 Novel Mutations Among Latin American Patients.

In this study, 103 unrelated South-American patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) were investigated aiming at the identification of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) disease causing mutations and the possibility of some insights on the genotype-phenotype correlation The strategy used for genotyping involved the identification of the previously reported inversion/disruption of the IDS gene by PCR and screening for other mutations by PCR/SSCP. The exons with altered mobility on SSCP were sequenced, as well as all the exons of patients with no SSCP alteration. By using this strategy, we were able to find the pathogenic mutation in all patients. Alterations such as inversion/disruption and partial/total deletions of the IDS gene were found in 20/103 (19%) patients. Small insertions/deletions/indels (<22 bp) and point mutations were identified in 83/103 (88%) patients, including 30 novel mutations; except for a higher frequency of small duplications in relation to small deletions, the frequencies of major and minor alterations found in our sample are in accordance with those described in the literature.

Preference Mapping Of Dulce De Leche Commercialized In Brazilian Markets.

Dulce de leche samples available in the Brazilian market were submitted to sensory profiling by quantitative descriptive analysis and acceptance test, as well sensory evaluation using the just-about-right scale and purchase intent. External preference mapping and the ideal sensory characteristics of dulce de leche were determined. The results were also evaluated by principal component analysis, hierarchical cluster analysis, partial least squares regression, artificial neural networks, and logistic regression. Overall, significant product acceptance was related to intermediate scores of the sensory attributes in the descriptive test, and this trend was observed even after consumer segmentation. The results obtained by sensometric techniques showed that optimizing an ideal dulce de leche from the sensory standpoint is a multidimensional process, with necessary adjustments on the appearance, aroma, taste, and texture attributes of the product for better consumer acceptance and purchase. The optimum dulce de leche was characterized by high scores for the attributes sweet taste, caramel taste, brightness, color, and caramel aroma in accordance with the preference mapping findings. In industrial terms, this means changing the parameters used in the thermal treatment and quantitative changes in the ingredients used in formulations.

Antioxidative responses of cell suspension cultures of two Coffea arabica varieties to low aluminum levels at pH 5.8

The effects of aluminum (Al) on the activities of antioxidant enzymes and ferritin expression were studied in cell suspension cultures of two varieties of Coffea arabica, Mundo Novo and Icatu, in medium with pH at 5.8. The cells were incubated with 300 µM Al3+, and the Al speciation as Al3+ was 1.45% of the mole fraction. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) were increased in Mundo Novo, whereas glutathione reductase (GR) and guaiacol peroxidase (GPOX) activities remained unchanged. SOD, GR, and GST activities were increased in Icatu, while CAT activity was not changed, and GPOX activity decreased. The expression of two ferritin genes (CaFer1 and CaFer2) were analyzed by Real-Time PCR. Al caused a downregulation of CaFER1 expression and no changes of CaFER2 expression in both varieties. The Western blot showed no alteration in ferritin protein levels in Mundo Novo and a decrease in Icatu. The differential enzymes responses indicate that the response to Al is variety-dependent.
