A comunicação como barreira à inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual em aulas de Física Moderna

This article is part of a study that seeks to understand the main barriers to the inclusion of visually   impaired   students   in   learning   Physics.   Analyzing  modern physics classes, we examine the difficulties in communication between teachers and visually impaired students. Our study emphasizes the analyses of empirical­sensory and semantic structures of speech, indicating factors that may hamper  students’ understanding in the classroom. We recommend alternative procedures that aim to facilitate the effective participation of students with visual impairment in the communication process, such as:  elimination of the interdependent   audiovisual structure and the exploration of the communicational potentialities of a speech based on empirical structures whose accessibility does not depend on visual skills.

Vantagem competitiva nas empresas contemporâneas: a informação e a inteligência competitiva na tomada de decisões estratégicas

We present the importance of information management and competitive intelligence as generating factors of competitive advantage in organizations. Through a study from the company Mizumo (SP) was possible demonstrate how obtaining and using of strategic information tools supported by in competitive intelligence can bring benefits and subsidies to organizations in identifying opportunities and threats, or even contribute to building and implementation of innovative projects aimed at ensuring quality of life for society.

Método primal-dual de pontos interiores aplicado ao problema de despacho econômico e ambiental

Este artigo traz os resultados obtidos através do estudo e da aplicação do Método Primal-Dual Previsor-Corretor de Pontos Interiores para Problema de Programação Quadr´atica convexa a um Problema de Despacho Econômico (PDE) e a um Problema Multiobjetivo de Despacho Econômico e Ambiental (DEA). O primeiro problema busca determinar a solução ótima aproximada, minimizando os custos dos combustíveis empregados na geração termoelétrica de energia e satisfazendo as restrições operacionais. Já o segundo é solucionado através do Método da Soma Ponderada, que apresenta um balanceamento entre o problema de otimização dos custos e o problema de emissão de poluentes. Ao final do artigo, um algoritmo para cada problema é proposto e implementado computacionalmente utilizando o software Borland C++ Builder 6.0. Os testes foram realizados utilizando um PDE de 13 geradores e um DEA de 06 geradores e os resultados obtidos demonstram a eficiˆencia dos m´etodos quando comparados a outros encontrados na literatura.

Potencial de contribuição e importância socioambiental dos 'catadores autônomos' de Rio Claro (SP) para o programa de coleta seletiva municipal

The Urban Solid Residues are the rests of human activity, popularly known by trash and considered by population like useless, undesirable and disposable. On the other hand, for the waste pickers, solid residues are the beginning of a cycle: they see in the other's people trash the only income, an economic value. Currently, in brazilian cities, one million collectors act, alone or in cooperatives, socially excluded by the work they do. The National Policy of Solid Residues (PNRS), instituted in 2010, established guidelines to the execution of integrated residues management, with should be practiced by city halls and other governmental institutions. This policy has, besides other things, goals of residues reduction and inclusion of waste pickers in the mechanism of selective collect and recycling. However, this and other public policies created for residue management are benefic only for cooperated waste pickers. That could negatively affect most of this class, since 90% are waste pickers working in a precarious way on the country's streets. This study has for objective show that most of waste pickers that work in a precarious way on the brazilian territory has a huge potential for the solid residues recycling chain and how they should be valued for the environmental services they provide, so they can be included with dignity on the society, ensuring economic and social benefits for this workers. The methodology adopted was based on the amount of residue collected by the 44 cooperated members of the Rio Claro‟s waste pickers cooperative to estimate the potential of collect and recycling did by 210 autonomous waste pickers who are active on city streets. It was observed that the cooperative collects the equivalent of 10.2% of all recyclable residues generated by city population. However, with the potential that these autonomous waste pickers have, which together could contribute 465 tonnes of solid residues per month, or 5,570 tons a year...

Estudo de viabilidade técnica e econômica da utilização de geração diesel no horário de ponta

Given the current energy crisis experienced in our country with the lack of rain in some areas, the energy distributors were forced to resort to thermal power plants to complement their energy production; raising the cost of electricity generation, they have been forced to repass this value to the customers through the Tariff Flags. Concerned about a substantial increase in their electric bill, some consumers were forced to look for alternatives so that their results are not affected. The use of diesel generation at peak hours is a relatively simple and inexpensive alternative that has been widely used for several industrial, commercial and service customers. In this present work, we conducted a feasibility study of the use of diesel generators at peak hours in a medium-sized hospital, calculating the depreciation period for the investment through savings in electricity bills

Satisfação no trabalho: indicador de qualidade no gerenciamento de recursos humanos em enfermagem

Estudo descritivo que aborda a satisfação no trabalho de enfermeiros gerentes e assistenciais nos Serviços de Hematologia e Hemoterapia de um hospital público da cidade de São Paulo. Objetivou identificar fatores geradores de satisfação no trabalho de enfermeiros gerentes e assistenciais e subsidiar os resultados para a construção de indicadores para avaliação da qualidade do gerenciamento de recursos humanos em Enfermagem. Os componentes do trabalho foram: autonomia, interação, status profissional, requisitos do trabalho, normas organizacionais e remuneração. Participaram do estudo 44 enfermeiros. O instrumento de coleta foi o questionário Índice de Satisfação Profissional (ISP). Concluindo, este estudo permitiu identificar que o grupo assistencial foi o mais satisfeito, com ISP 10,5; o gerencial totalizou 10,0. Quanto à satisfação com a atividade atual, 88,9% dos enfermeiros gerentes disseram estar satisfeitos, assim como 90,9% dos assistenciais. Para os dois grupos, a autonomia foi o componente de maior nível de satisfação profissional.
