Proyecto de formación del profesorado de educación de personas adultas.

Seminario para el diseño, desarrollo y evaluación de un proyecto de formación del profesorado de personas adultas realizado por once profesores de los centros de formación de personas adultas El Carmen y Paolo Freire, de Vitoria (Alava). El objetivo es ofrecer una alternativa de formación desde el estudio comparativo de las ya existentes, considerando como una necesidad prioritaria la elaboración de un plan de formación estructurado y específico. Se realizan reuniones en pequeño y gran grupo y visitas a distintos centros e instituciones de educación de adultos de Zaragoza.

Una experiencia de evaluación : curso de actualización para profesores de la Scuola Secondaria Superiore

Se presenta la experiencia de evaluación del curso de actualización para profesores de matemáticas de la Scuola Secondaria Superiore con las tecnologías de educación a distancia planificado y realizado en el ámbito de las actividades de Formación Permanente llevadas a cabo, de acuerdo con el Ministero Della Pubblica Istruzione, por il Consorzio per l'Universitá a Distanza en colaboración con la Universidad de Calabria y aprobado y financiado en 1986 por la Direzione Generale Istruzione Tecnica del Ministerio Della Pubblica Istruzione (MPI). El curso se generalizó en todo el territorio italiano en el año académico 1992/93 con una duración de dieciséis semanas, con un total de ochenta horas.

Variation on the effects of the 2003 CAP reform and regional differences in the Italian olive oil sector

This paper analyses the impacts of the 2003 CAP reform on the production of Italian olive oil controlling for the regional differences in olive oil production as well as for the differences between years. Italian olive oil production time series data from the Farm Accountancy Data Network for the 2000-2010 period at regional level is used to examine the effect of the 2003 Fischler reform on the production of olive oil. Production costs and payments received by farmers to support their income are considered. The data were collected at micro level based on a sample of farms representative of the production systems in the country. In order to consider the differences in production among the regions, eight representative regions in terms of surveyed farms are considered: Liguria, Toscana, Umbria, Lazio, Campania, Calabria, Puglia and Sicilia. We found that the most important factors affecting the production of olive oil are the area under olive groves and labour productivity. Results also show no evidence that the level of payments have an impact to the level of production, however, the type of payments has. Future work should explore the impact of the 2003 reform into the technical and production efficiency of the Italian olive oil farmers. It would be interesting to link the measures introduced by the cross compliance and the management practices of the different farms to have a more complete picture of the various parameters influencing the production of olive oil.

Effects of calcium supplementation on body weight reduction in overweight calcium stone formers

A randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in overweight calcium stone-forming (CSF) patients, to evaluate the effect of calcium supplementation associated with a calorie-restricted diet on body weight (BW) and fat reduction and its potential changes upon serum and urinary parameters. Fifteen patients were placed on a hypocaloric diet for 3 months, supplemented with either calcium carbonate (CaCO(3), n = 8) or placebo (n = 7), 500 mg bid. Blood and 24-h urine samples were collected and body composition was assessed at baseline and after the intervention. At the end of the study, final BW was significantly lower vs baseline in both CaCO(3) (74 +/- A 14 vs. 80 +/- A 14 kg, P = 0.01) and placebo groups (80 +/- A 10 vs. 87 +/- A 9 kg, P = 0.02) but the mean percentage of loss of body weight and body fat did not differ between CaCO(3) and placebo (7.0 +/- A 2.0 vs. 8.0 +/- A 3.0%, P = 0.40 and 13.0 +/- A 7.0 vs. 13.0 +/- A 10.0%; P = 0.81, respectively). After CaCO(3) or placebo, no significant differences versus baseline were observed for urinary parameters in both CaCO(3) and placebo, except for a higher mean urinary citrate in placebo group. These data suggest that increasing calcium intake by calcium carbonate supplementation did not contribute to a further reduction of BW and fat in overweight CSF patients submitted to a hypocaloric diet nor altered urinary lithogenic parameters.

DGGE with genomic DNA: Suitable for detection of numerically important organisms but not for identification of the most abundant organisms

Identification of all important community members as well as of the numerically dominant members of a community are key aspects of microbial community analysis of bioreactor samples. A systematic study was conducted with artificial consortia to test whether denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGCE) is a reliable technique to obtain such community data under conditions where results would not be affected by differences in DNA extraction efficiency from cells. A total of 27 consortia were established by mixing DNA extracted from Escherichia coli K12, Burkholderia cepacia and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in different proportions. Concentrations of DNA of single organisms in the consortia were either 0.04, 0.4 or 4 ng/mu l. DGGE-PCR of genomic DNA with primer sets targeted at the V3 and V6-V8 regions of the 16S rDNA failed to detect the three community members in only 7% of consortia, but provided incorrect information about dominance or co-dominance for 85% and 89% of consortia with the primer sets for the V6-V8 and V3 regions, respectively. The high failure rate in detection of dominant B. cepacia with the primers for the V6-V8 region was attributable to a single nucleoticle primer mismatch in the target sequences of both, the forward and reverse primer. Amplification bias in PCR of E. coli and S. maltophilia for the V6-V8 region and for all three organisms for the V3 region occurred due to interference of genomic DNA in PCR-DGGE, since a nested PCR approach, where PCR-DGGE was started from mixtures of 16S rRNA genes of the organisms, provided correct information about the relative abundance of original DNA in the sample. Multiple bands were not observed in pure culture amplicons produced with the V6-V8 primer pair, but pure culture V3 DGGE profiles of E. coli, S. maltophilia and B. cepacia contained 5, 3 and 3 bands, respectively. These results demonstrate DGGE was suitable for identification of all important community members in the three-membered artificial consortium, but not for identification of the dominant organisms in this small community. Multiple DGGE bands obtained for single organisms with the V3 primer pair could greatly confound interpretation of DGGE profiles. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Comunicação: base da interação entre amigos

Essa dissertação aborda na sua parte teórica a Interação Humana com especial ênfase na teoria da Comunicação de Gregory Bateson e Paul Watzlawick. Seu principal objetivo é verificar empiricamente a forma como se dá a comunicação de acordo com as categorias relacionais estabelecidas por Bateson. Para essa observação foram entrevistadas duplas de amigos que mantinham esse vínculo há algum tempo. Procurou-se categorizar os aspectos da Amizade referentes a intimidade, ciúme, confiança, competição, inveja, afetividade, cumplicidade, fidelidade e limites enquadrando-os nos padrões de relação estabelecidos por Bateson e Watzlawick quais sejam complementaridade e simetria. As entrevistas realizadas foram gravadas e delas retirados excertos para realização das análises. Os resultados ofereceram uma ampla margem para a confirmação dos supostos batesonianos, demonstrando por um lado a presença dos padrões complementar e simétrico, e por outro, a existência de flexibilidade entre eles, objetivando à manutenção da relação. Pode-se concluir que a relação de amizade tipifica a possibilidade de existir relacionamentos saudáveis entre as pessoas, distintos dos comumente observados, marcados pelos condicionamentos sociais e psicológicos que levam à competição, à dominação e à falsidade.
