A aprendizagem de algoritmos: uma experiência no curso de Tecnologia em Informática do CEFET- PA

Esta pesquisa trata de uma experiência vivida com os alunos do curso de Tecnologia em Análise e Desenvolvimento de Sistemas do Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica do Pará - CEFET sobre o aprendizado de algoritmos e programação. O presente estudo justifica-se pela relevância em se discutir a prática do profissional da área de informática que atua na educação profissional superior com o ensino de algoritmos. Embora haja concepções acerca dos obstáculos relacionados ao tema, há a necessidade de se investigar as dificuldades e fatores que contribuem com a aprendizagem de algoritmos e consequentemente de programação. Assim este trabalho se propõe a responder a seguinte questão? É possível melhorar o processo ensino-aprendizagem de algoritmos através da pedagogia de projetos? Com base nas observações levantadas, propomos e colocamos em prática um modelo de ensino baseado nesta pedagogia, com o objetivo de potencializar a compreensão de algoritmos. A metodologia adotada utilizou a pesquisa-ação no sentido de investigação colaborativa de observação na ação. Os fundamentos teóricos basearam-se na teoria de aprendizagem significativa de David Ausubel, nas propostas facilitadoras dessa aprendizagem por Postman e Weingartner, Marco Antônio Moreira e no Construcionismo de Papert. De um modo geral foram constatadas boas impressões com desenvolvimento do projeto especialmente por termos observado nos alunos maior motivação com a atividade de programação percebida pela autonomia e reflexão nas etapas de desenvolvimento do projeto.

Análise de algoritmos computacionais utilizados em sistemas de planejamento de braquiterapia de alta taxa de dose: estudo comparativo com o Código MCNP-5C

In radiotherapy, computational systems are used for radiation dose determination in the treatment’s volume and radiometric parameters quality analysis of equipment and field irradiated. Due to the increasing technological advancement, several research has been performed in brachytherapy for different computational algorithms development which may be incorporated to treatment planning systems, providing greater accuracy and confidence in the dose calculation. Informatics and information technology fields undergo constant updating and refinement, allowing the use Monte Carlo Method to simulate brachytherapy source dose distribution. The methodology formalization employed to dosimetric analysis is based mainly in the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) studies, by Task Group nº 43 (TG-43) and protocols aimed at dosimetry of these radiation sources types. This work aims to analyze the feasibility of using the MCNP-5C (Monte Carlo N-Particle) code to obtain radiometric parameters of brachytherapy sources and so to study the radiation dose variation in the treatment planning. Simulations were performed for the radiation dose variation in the source plan and determined the dosimetric parameters required by TG-43 formalism for the characterization of the two high dose rate iridium-192 sources. The calculated values were compared with the presents in the literature, which were obtained with different Monte Carlo simulations codes. The results showed excellent consistency with the compared codes, enhancing MCNP-5C code the capacity and viability in the sources dosimetry employed in HDR brachytherapy. The method employed may suggest a possible incorporation of this code in the treatment planning systems provided by manufactures together with the equipment, since besides reducing acquisition cost, it can also make the used computational routines more comprehensive, facilitating the brachytherapy ...

Inovação tecnológica de boas práticas agrícolas e a informática na gestão agropecuária

This study aims to develop innovative proposals for production agriculture management and plans to build a participatory model, through the digital inclusion of members of the family farm gathered in a cooperative venture seeking to establish new environmental management efficiency for household production. The first part of the hypothesis assumes that a major obstacle to the insertion of small family farms into the markets is skilled labor, human capital. A training model has been developed for traceability and tracking activities on family farms, based on the atemoya culture. The second hypothesis predicts that it is possible to create a model that is scientifically supported by widely accepted rules derived from GlobalGAP standard certification, a global benchmark for good agricultural practices. Using these rules the model seeks to achieve the traceability of agricultural products and operations from the preservation of identity information within the production chain. The results obtained by the computerized system confirmed the presented hypotheses by demonstrating that technological innovation through intensive communication and information technologies education as well as other associated forms are important drivers of regional development, especially if implemented through a digital inclusion project using the state program Infocentros Access São Paulo.
