Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação no cotidiano dos adolescentes: enfoque no comportamento e na competências informacionais da geração Google

Introduction: Individuals born from the 1990’s to accompany technological change course and learn how to use the technological resources that have access before they even learn to read or write. In this sense, the literature considers the digital natives or even 'Google generation'. However, it has been questioned their skills to identify information needs and seeking and use of information in the most varied environments digital information available on the Web. Objectives: To characterize the behavior of information seeking in everyday life of a group of teenage students from a private school in Marilia, Sao Paulo. Methodology: A qualitative study with 30 adolescent students of a private school in Marilia, Sao Paulo. Data collection was accomplished at first by means of a questionnaire, based on the research of Hughes-Hussell and August (2007), containing questions about age, gender, hobbies and everyday tasks, and issues the use of computers and the internet, which allowed determination of the social, economic and cultural rights of respondents. Results: have focused on the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to search access and use information. It was suggested that the "Brotherhood of Informatics', an incentive for students to (re) learn the tools of digital communication and make appropriate use of the resources, products and services on the web to search and effective use of information compatible with their needs and that is tied to the ethical and responsible use of technology environments. Conclusions: The results arising from this study will continue through the continuation of the Confraternity of Computing, which became a "thermometer" on the use of digital information environments and the attitude of the students in front of Information and Communication Technologies in the College “Cristo Rei”.

A influência da cultura e da comunicação para a geração de conhecimento em contexto organizacional

In the organizational context culture and communication are fundamental to the processes of appropriation, sharing, generation and use of knowledge. However, in organizations, it is evident that there is little awareness about the influence of information culture and informational communication in the scope of knowledge management. In this perspective and considering the theoretical context, we analyze the influence of culture and communication in the construction of knowledge in an organizational context. This study presents a qualitative research covering national literature focusing theoretical literature published about this thematic. Analyzing this literature we have verified that without an appropriate information culture and an appropriate information communication favoring the organizational processes, hardly the managers would reach the purpose of stimulating knowledge creation within the organization's environment. In conclusion we consider that culture and communication are the foundations for the effectiveness of activities that occur within the context of knowledge management.

Geração de energia renovável em residências: aplicação de tecnologias existentes

Due to the high value of the bill that the Brazilian has been paying, one of the most expensive in the world, is becoming increasingly attractive the option for renewable energy in form of distributed micro and minigeneration. In other words, the renewable energy sources are becoming attractive not only because of environmental concerns, but also due to economic issues. This has become even more relevant and concrete after approval of rules by National Agency of Electric Energy (ANEEL) on 4/17/2012 (Normative Resolution n ° 482/2012 of 04/17/2012) aimed at reducing barriers to installation of small distributed generation, including microgeneration, with up to 100 kW of power, and minigeneration, 100 kW to 1 MW. The Normative Resolution n ° 482/2012 creates the Energy Clearing System, which allows consumers to install small generators in its consumer unit and exchange energy with the local distributor. The rule applies to generators that use renewable sources of energy (hydro, solar, biomass, wind and cogeneration qualified). In this context, this paper presents a technical and economic analysis of installing a residential microgenerating plant composed of photovoltaic cells, solar panels and small wind turbines

Estudo da variação da porcentagem e da estimativa de geração de gás metano para o aterro sanitário do município de Rio Claro - SP

Increased demand for energy and the search for alternative energy sources are remarkable and current facts. The management of domestic solid waste is also part of the issue in view of the possibility of power generation in existing landfills, which could provide financial autonomy to the system of waste management and improve the environmental balance of landfills in Brazil, currently only used for final solids disposal. Landfill gas is a viable alternative energy source has been tested in landfills in the World and in Brazil. Thus, the research aimed to evaluate the percentage of methane (CH4) present in three sinks of gases from a landfill in the municipality of Rio Claro – SP (Brazil), and to estimate the potential methane generation over its life through the application of a mathematical model. As a result it was found that in general the percentage of methane present in the gases is significant, between 50 and 62%. It was also noted that waste with disposal time between 8 and 12 months already are in the methanogenic stage. Finally, there was a tendency to increase the generation of methane in the transition periods of rain and drought

Geração e análise da imunogenicidade de plasmídeos contendo epítopos CD8 sub-dominantes expressos em Trypanosoma cruzi

Durante a infecção experimental por Trypanosoma cruzi, a resposta imune adaptativa mediada por células CD8+ é direcionada a poucos epítopos imunodominantes e subdominantes. Em estudos anteriores, foi demonstrado que, em diferentes linhagens de camundongos, a imunização com plasmídeos ou proteínas recombinantes, que expressam epítopos CD8 imunodominantes, antecipa a resposta imune após o desafio e proporciona resposta imune protetora contra infecções letais com T.cruzi. Em nosso estudo atual, desenvolvemos a hipótese que também é possível gerar resposta imune protetora a partir de imunizações com plasmídeos que expressam epítopos subdominantes. Neste caso, esta resposta poderia se somar a resposta imune dominante ampliando o espectro da resposta imuno-protetora. Para testar nossa hipótese, nós tivemos que construir diferentes plasmídeos contendo a ORF do gene da proteína 2 de superfície de amastigota (asp-2) de T.cruzi contendo mutações que: i) retiraram os epítopos imunodominantes CD8 (VNHRFTLV para H-2Kb ou TEWETGQI para H-2Kk) ;ii) trocaram o epítopo imunodominante por epítopos sub-dominantes (TsKb-18 ANYDFTLV ou TsKb-20 ANYKFTLV). Além disso, também foi construído um plasmídeo contendo somente a porção P4-P7 (261° a 500° aminoácidos) da asp-2. Após a construção destes plasmídeos, testamos a imunogencidade de dois deles, denominados pRE-P4P7 e o pIgSP-VNHRATLA, foram testados individualmente na vacinação de camundongos F1(C57BL/6 x B10.A) (H-2Kb e H- 2Kk) ou de CB10 (H-2Kb), respectivamente, e desafiados com tripomastigotas da cepa Y de T.cruzi. A vacinação de camundongos F1 (C57BL/6 x B10.A) com o plasmídeo pré- P4-P7 aumentou significativamente a resposta imune de células CD8+ específicas ao epítopo sub-dominante TEWETGQI, restrito ao MHC H-2kk, porém não diminuiu a resposta ...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

A geração de resíduos sólidos urbanos e sua influência na gestão urbano-ambiental municipal de Sorocaba/SP

In Brazil, rates of urban solid waste generation increase proportionally more than the annual growing of the population. The government, from its federal authority to the municipal spheres, faces increasing challenges for Urban and Environmental management regarding to solid waste in general and, in particular, municipal solid waste. Financial problems added to public health problems that worsen with the serious environmental impacts generated every year. In August 2010 Brazil the PNRS (National Policy on Solid Waste) was approved and sanctioned in which represented a true watershed in the country as a legal framework extremely ambitious and visionary. This work presents the successes and challenges that the municipality of Sorocaba/SP is facing after more than three years of PNRS sanctioned to conduct an Urban and Environmental management suited to the new legal bases towards the subject of solid waste. The results show a large gap between the content proposed by the law and the technical, financial and temporal reality to practical implementation by the municipal government. New legislation and federal incentives, consortiums among the cities, flexible deadlines and environmental education at all levels are certainly some proposals to catalyze processes that aim to solve and overcome the challenges of solid waste

Análise técnica e econômica da utilização da energia solar e eólica em uma propriedade rural para geração de eletricidade, bombeamento e aquecimento de água

This paper is about a case study of using solar energy and wind energy in a farm. For this purpose were collected from the property, such as water consumption and amount of residents. So, we estimate how many conventional panels or PET bottle panels and boiler needed to supply the farm with warm water. It also calculates the amount of photovoltaic panels and the main accessories for converting solar energy into electrical energy. For the pumping of water using photovoltaic panels is dismissed and dimensioned to be a watermill
