Línguas de ritmo silábico

One of the most controversial issues in the history of Phonetics is the discussion about the typology of speech rhythm. Out of the Greek and Latin tradition on poetry versification, the notion of rhythm has been misunderstood as speech rate. In the early years of the 20th century, a dichotomy merged classifying the speech rhythm into stress-timed and syllable-timed languages, inspired by the old theory of poetic versification. Following the same old pattern, later on, a third type of language were proposed: the moraic languages, initially attributed only to Japanese. With the facilities to carry on acoustic research, in the second half of the 20th century, the typology of language rhythm came to a dead end. Different types of language were set out. This paper discusses these ideas, showing a great misunderstanding among researchers in relation to the characterization of a syllable-timed language. The notion of mora is revisited and its role in the study of speech rhythm is better defined.

Gestar: formação de professores em serviço e a abordagem da geometri

This present article aims to present some results of a PhD research in which intended to answer the following investigation question: In which extent a Program of Teacher Education in service in the early years of elementary school, GESTAR, contributed to the development of positive attitudes about Geometry? The participants were twelve teachers from two schools in the State of Mato Grosso. The instruments for data collection were a range of attitudes towards Geometry (EARG) developed and experimented by Viana and Brito (2004). The results showed a meaningful change in Geometry of the data pre and post-experiment.

O uso da atividade guia (brincar) como catalisadora do desenvolvimento do pensamento e da linguagem

To select pedagogical practices that allow the development of psychic function thinking and psychic function language. It's necessary understanding the whole psyche human, postulated by Vygotsky. The action of playing, the main activity of the children in the childhood education, can enhance the resilience of the psychic functions, once it provides stimulus and may include teacher's intervention during its deployment. For a better intervention, this planning in light of a theory is primordial, as well as the reflection on this practice. This research aimed to find the moment of the activities that took place the development of these functions, language and thought, in children who are in the early years of the childhood education. The survey was conducted through a qualitative interpretation approach, as action research. Data analysis allowed us to observe planned teaching practices in which enabled the development of language and thought and consequently a qualitative leap in the other psychic functions

An Artesian Well System in Beaver Crossing, Nebraska- It's Development and Demise

ABSTRACT Nebraska has a veritable wealth of groundwater. The High Plains Aquifer underlies most of the state, and within its sand and gravel deposits, many interconnected aquifers provide fresh water for a variety of uses. One of the most spectacular examples of this resource is the artesian well. Beaver Crossing, Nebraska was once home to one of the most prolific artesian systems in the state before its demise. Founded in the 1880’s, Beaver Crossing soon became known for its many artesian wells, that provided leisure activities and supported profitable business ventures such as small farming, ice production and aquiculture. Eventually these wells would dry up and the town of Beaver Crossing would never see the level of commerce and activity that it saw during its early years. I decided to research this subject because I lived in Beaver Crossing for twelve years. While I lived there I heard stories about the artesian wells, the nationally recognized lily pond, and the large public pool fed by underground water that was plentiful around town. I was interested in knowing what happened to the water, the wells, the pool and businesses. . . And, in the wake of their disappearance, what happened to the town. To research this topic I looked at accounts of the history of Seward County and Beaver Crossing. I also studied the basic geology underlying the Great Plains, as well as local geology and issues pertaining to groundwater levels, such as rainfall amounts, drought and irrigation. As irrigation became a factor in rural Nebraska and through several documented droughts, groundwater levels all over the state declined. At the same time the artesian system in Beaver Crossing all but disappeared.

Ernesto Buonaiuti e la rivista «Il Rinnovamento»

This work is about the modernist writer Ernesto Buonaiuti (1881-1946) in the early years of his cultural activity. He was suggested by Alfred Loisy's historical method and by William James pragmatism in philosophy. So he refused traditional religious education he received to become a catholic priest and started a long-life battle against Roman Catholic Church. My research tries to investigate the influence of pragmatism on Buonaiuti's thought, analyzing articles he published on the modernist review «Il Rinnovamento», from 1907 to 1909. Then I compared philosophical themes with other works by Buonaiuti, trying to focus the development of his way of thinking throught the years until the end. My conclusion: Buonaiuti was a religious pragmatist all over his life and many works he published after the modernist crisis can confirm it.

Informationsstrukturen der protokollbasierten Medizin

Die protokollbasierte Medizin stellt einen interdisziplinären Brennpunkt der Informatik dar. Als besonderer Ausschnitt der medizinischen Teilgebiete erlaubt sie die relativ formale Spezifikation von Prozessen in den drei Bereichen der Prävention, Diagnose und Therapie.Letzterer wurde immer besonders fokussiert und gilt seit jeher im Rahmen klinischer Studien als Projektionsfläche für informationstechnologische Konzepte. Die Euphorie der frühen Jahre ernüchtert sich jedoch bei jeder Bilanz. Nur sehr wenige der unzählbaren Projekte haben ihre Routine in der alltäglichen Praxis gefunden. Die meisten Vorhaben sind an der Illusion der vollständigen Berechenbarkeit medizinischer Arbeitsabläufe gescheitert. Die traditionelle Sichtweise der klinischen Praxis beruht auf einer blockorientierten Vorstellung des Therapieausführungsprozesses. Sie entsteht durch seine Zerlegung in einzelne Therapiezweige, welche aus vordefinierten Blöcken zusammengesetzt sind. Diese können sequentiell oder parallel ausgeführt werden und sind selbst zusammengesetzt aus jeweils einer Menge von Elementen,welche die Aktivitäten der untersten Ebene darstellen. Das blockorientierte Aufbaumodell wird ergänzt durch ein regelorientiertes Ablaufmodell. Ein komplexes Regelwerk bestimmt Bedingungen für die zeitlichen und logischen Abhängigkeiten der Blöcke, deren Anordnung durch den Ausführungsprozeß gebildet wird. Die Modellierung der Therapieausführung steht zunächst vor der grundsätzlichen Frage, inwieweit die traditionelle Sichtweise für eine interne Repräsentation geeignet ist. Das übergeordnete Ziel besteht in der Integration der unterschiedlichen Ebenen der Therapiespezifikation. Dazu gehört nicht nur die strukturelle Komponente, sondern vorallem die Ablaufkomponente. Ein geeignetes Regelmodell ist erforderlich, welches den spezifischen Bedürfnissen der Therapieüberwachung gerecht wird. Die zentrale Aufgabe besteht darin, diese unterschiedlichen Ebenen zusammenzuführen. Eine sinnvolle Alternative zur traditionellen Sichtweise liefert das zustandsorientierte Modell des Therapieausführungsprozesses. Das zustandsorientierte Modell beruht auf der Sichtweise, daß der gesamte Therapieausführungsprozeß letztendlich eine lineare Folge von Zuständen beschreibt, wobei jeder Zustandsübergang durch ein Ereignis eingeleitet wird, an bestimmte Bedingungen geknüpft ist und bestimmte Aktionen auslösen kann. Die Parallelität des blockorientierten Modells tritt in den Hintergrund, denn die Menge der durchzuführenden Maßnahmen sind lediglich Eigenschaften der Zustände und keine strukturellen Elemente der Ablaufspezifikation. Zu jedem Zeitpunkt ist genau ein Zustand aktiv, und er repräsentiert eine von endlich vielen klinischen Situationen, mit all ihren spezifischen Aktivitäten und Ausführungsregeln. Die Vorteile des zustandsorientierten Modells liegen in der Integration. Die Grundstruktur verbindet die statische Darstellung der möglichen Phasenanordnungen mit der dynamischen Ausführung aktiver Regeln. Die ursprünglichen Inhalte des blockorientierten Modells werden als gewöhnliche Eigenschaften der Zustände reproduziert und stellen damit nur einen Spezialfall der zustandsbezogenen Sicht dar.Weitere Möglichkeiten für die Anreicherung der Zustände mit zusätzlichen Details sind denkbar wie sinnvoll. Die Grundstruktur bleibt bei jeder Erweiterung jedoch die gleiche. Es ergibt sich ein wiederverwendbares Grundgerüst,ein gemeinsamer Nenner für die Erfüllung der Überwachungsaufgabe.

Luis Arana e i veterani di Euzkeldun Batzokija: la corrente ortodossa del nazionalismo basco

La tesi di Marco Perez intitolata “Luis Arana e i veterani di Euzkeldun Batzokija: la corrente ortodossa del nazionalismo basco”, può essere considerata come la biografia politica di uno dei personaggi più importanti del nazionalismo basco. Il lavoro di ricerca si centra fondamentalmente sull'ispiratore del nazionalismo euskaldun (e cofondatore del Partido Nacionalista Vasco) e della corrente che ne accompagnò e sostenne l'azione politica. Euzkeldun Batzokija fu il nome dato al primo circolo del PNV, fondato da Luis e Sabino Arana nel 1894. Successivamente, gli statuti del circolo e i suoi membri veterani furono presi come modello del nazionalismo primordiale (che si pretendeva definire sull'esempio dell'Ordine gesuita). Sul piano organizzativo la tesi si divide in sette capitoli che ricostruiscono il percorso politico di Luis Arana, dai primi documenti del 1879 fino alle ultime lettere inviate negli anni quaranta. Si tratta di un lungo periodo, che comprende momenti diversi della storia spagnola (dalle guerre carliste alla Guerra Civile spagnola) e del movimento aranista. In questo senso, sulla base di una generale e comparata riflessione sul nazionalismo, si analizza il movimento basco nei suoi rapporti con la modernità. Una realazione costruita attraverso concetti “diacronicamente” legati a un passato mitico e leggendario e comunque subalterna ai rapporti di forza tra le correnti del PNV. La corrente ortodossa fece sempre riferimento al nazionalismo “originario” (definito dai fratelli Arana nei primi anni del movimento) che fu un'espressione regionale del nazionalcattolicesimo spagnolo. Fu proprio Luis Arana a ricordare la finalità religiosa ed etnica del nazionalismo basco, respingendo qualsiasi aggiornamento teorico e organizzativo del PNV, intesi come una grave violazione dell'ortodossia aranista.

Long-term effects of watershed management on surface runoff and sediment loss in the Ethiopian Highlands

Data on rainfall, runoff and sediment loss from different land use types have been collected by the Soil Conservation Research Programme in seven small catchments (73-673 hectares) throughout the Ethiopian Highlands since the early 1980s. Monitoring was carried out on a storm-to-storm basis for extended periods of 10-20 years, and the data are analysed here to assess long-term effects of changes. Soil and water conservation technologies were introduced in the early years in the catchments in view of their capacity to reduce runoff and sediment yield. Results indicate that rainfall did not substantially change over the observation periods. Land use changes and land degradation, however, altered runoff, as shown by the data from small test plots (30 m2), which were not altered by conservation measures during the monitoring periods. Sediment delivery from the catchments may have decreased due to soil and water conservation, while runoff rates did not change significantly. Extrapolation of the results in the highlands, however, showed that expansion of cultivated and grazing land induced by population growth may have increased the overall surface runoff. Watershed management in the catchments, finally, had beneficial effects on ecosystem services by reducing soil erosion, restoring soil fertility, enhancing agricultural production, and maintaining overall runoff to the benefit of lowland areas and neighbouring countries.
