Estudo tipológico e conceptual de uma creche e jardim de infância para o Bairro da Cova da Moura

Esta Tese tem como objectivo, contribuir para a construção de uma Creche e Jardim de Infância num bairro social de modo a minimizar a realidade actual, bem como a problemática nos "Bairros Sociais". Este estudo incidiu sobre o Bairro da Cova da Moura, situado no concelho da Amadora, sendo considerado um dos mais perigosos da cidade de Lisboa. O Trabalho iniciou-se com uma análise á origem do Bairro da Cova da Moura, ao seu desenvolvimento e, posteriormente aos seus habitantes a fim de, compreender as suas características e vivências. Na sequência deste trabalho, verificou-se a existência de inúmeras carências afectas ao bairro e à sua população, constatando-se que são nas camadas mais jovens, nomeadamente da infância à adolescência que incidem a maioria destas adversidades. Neste contexto, a proposta de trabalho será a concepção do Projecto de uma Creche e Jardim de Infância, apelando a uma educação mais eficaz e proveitosa, proporcionada em condições de conforto arquitectónico, tendo em conta a zona onde se insere e a população que servirá, tentando interligar o bairro e a convivência dos seus habitantes com as populações periféricas. Mediante a análise destes espaços serão mostradas algumas apreciações feitas para a concepção deste tipo de Equipamento, bem como de alguns conceitos e renovações nos mesmos referentes a questões antropológicas, ergonómicas, tipológicas, funcionais e de alguns problemas e dificuldades associados.

THE POTENTIALITIES OF USING A GRAPHITE-SILICONE RUBBER COMPOSITE ELECTRODE IN THE DETERMINATION OF PROPRANOLOL

A graphite silicone-rubber composite electrode (GSR) was used for the determination of propranolol in drug formulation. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) at the GSR presented an irreversible oxidation peak at + 0.8V vs. SCE, in Britton Robinson (B-R) buffer pH 7.4. The quantitative determination was carried out using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimized parameters a linear dynamic range from 5.0 to 80.6 mu mol L(-1) with a detection limit of 1.1 mu mol L(-1) was observed. A repeatability of 4.5 +/- 0.1 mu A (n = 10) peak current was found after 10 successive DPV voltammograms of propranolol in the same solution after surface renovations. Using the proposed electrode, propranolol was quantified in a pharmaceutical formulation with results that agreed within 95% confidence level (t-test) with those from an official method.

Redefining the Academic Library Managing the Migration to Digital Information Services

Academic libraries are faced with a daunting series of challenges brought on by the digital revolution. In an era when millions of books, articles, images, and videos available instantaneously via the web, libraries across all institutional types are experiencing declining demand for their traditional services, built around the storage and dissemination of physical resources. At the same time, new demand for digital information services and collaborative learning spaces promise new areas of opportunity and engagement with patrons. A rapid and orderly transition to “the library of the future” requires difficult trade-offs, however, as no institution can afford to continue expanding both its commitment to comprehensive, local print collections as well as new investments in staff, technology, and renovations. This report illustrates how progressive academic libraries are evolving in response to these challenges, providing case studies and best practices in managing library space, staff, and resources.

A concepção de paisagem de professores de geografia em escolas do município de Parnamirim (RN)

This work is an exploratory study based on the principles of qualitative research aiming at the conception of landscape by Geography teachers in the city of Parnamirim (RN), as well as the pedagogical implications originated from such conceptions on the formation of students. In order to start our investigative process, we used, as theoretical and methodological reference, some principles of historical and dialectical materialism by Triviños (2007) and historical cultural approach of education by Freire (1987; 1996) e Vygotsky (1993; 2001; 2007), as well as the meaning of conception by Morin (1996) and Ferreira (2007) and the critical approach of geography by Moraes (2005), Santos (1988; 2004; 2006) and Silva (1989; 2010). Also, we used oral history as a research technique such as Moraes (2004), Bertaux (2010), Ferraroti (2010) and Nóvoa (2010) and semi-structured interviews as data collection tools. Our empirical reference is made of four teachers working in four different public schools in the city mentioned above, providing the needed data to start our research. The objective of such interviews is not the verification of the teachers‟ practice in class or outside them, but it highlights the transitoriness of the evidences mentioned in the research. Thus, we conclude that the conception of landscape mostly accepted by the teachers, once it is a process built along their lives and surrounded by their pedagogical practice, prioritizes the visual and morphological aspects and the sentimental livings related to the conception which is situated in a descriptive level of conception. Effectively, the pedagogical implications of these conceptions at school point to a materialization of geography teaching centered on the non-critical reproduction of school subjects which very little instigate the learners to process, via dialogicity, the re-significations of their essential and multiple attributes despite the several attempts and possibilities of some theoretical and methodological renovations on the application of geographical knowledge about landscape, expressed on the report of the interviewees

Modelagem do “tempo de execução” de obras civis: estudo de caso na Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA)

O objetivo desta pesquisa é propor um modelo numérico prognóstico que trate a variável “tempo” de forma eficiente e eficaz, com a finalidade de atender às reais necessidades dos clientes-usuários e à sociedade em geral. Todavia, realizou-se um levantamento bibliográfico sobre gestão pública, no tocante a obras públicas, estatística e pesquisa operacional para sistema organizacional, visando à modelagem numérica. A pesquisa foi baseada em metodologias quantitativas, com ênfase na pesquisa operacional para o estudo das obras públicas executadas sob a gerência da Prefeitura (PCU) da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA). Para a elaboração da base de dados, foram coletados informações de obras, reformas e ampliações, executadas durante o período de 2006 a 2009, junto à Comissão Permanente de Licitação (CPL) e à Fundação de Amparo ao Desenvolvimento da Pesquisa (FADESP). Mediante as regressões lineares e, após as transformadas das funções, foram obtidos para o modelo prognóstico os parâmetros estatísticos: coeficiente de correlação (R), de 0,899; coeficiente de determinação (R²), de 0,808; coeficiente de determinação ajustado (R² ajustado), de 0,796; e erro padrão (Se), de 0,41. Esses parâmetros demonstram forte correlação linearizada entre as variáveis, indicando que 79,60% da variabilidade do tempo para executar uma obra pública é causada ou produzida pela variação, em conjunto, da área; do valor orçado; da capacidade técnica operacional da IFES; da capacidade operacional da empresa; da tipologia de serviço; e da estação do ano. Com os resultados obtidos, conclui-se que é possível aplicar e implementar o modelo prognóstico para execução de obras públicas, pois se obteve uma ferramenta potente em sua aplicação para as melhorias dos procedimentos administrativos, tanto na estrutura como no seu desempenho, cujo principal resultado é a previsão do tempo para execução do empreendimento público.

Análise da ferramenta LEED para a certificação de edifícios sustentáveis no Brasil

CCurrently there are various systems for the evaluation of environmental impacts of buildings, known as tools of environmental certification. Among these, the tool LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations has been the most widely used and accepted worldwide, in assessing the sustainability of buildings. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the tool for LEED certification for construction work in Brazil, which ranks fourth in the world ranking records certification of sustainable buildings. It was found in this analysis that the assumptions of this tool are encouraging the use of more sustainable and less impactful on the environment as it promotes the deployment of innovative projects from a technological standpoint, , as well as the valuation of enterprises certified. Also, very significant results obtained in terms of energy efficiency and environmental quality in occupied buildings

o ensino de leitura na escola: um olhar sobre as concepções de professores do 1º ciclo do ensino fundamental de uma escola municipal de Bauru - SP

This research is being read, thus rendering text on the pole of understanding, as a practice effective dialogue and therefore responsive through which the reader, author, text and context interact. To this end, the reader must turn their knowledge systems and relate them to the linguistic materiality. Thus, aimed to investigate whether the teaching of reading in the early years of elementary school literacy builds skills related to this cultural practice and its relationship to the conceptions of classroom teachers of reading, as well as the teaching and learning methodologies practiced in class classroom. Therefore, I base this research on the theoretical basis of linguistic studies and expository sociointeractionist redefine that, among other things, the concepts of language, genre and text. As for the methodological framework, this study followed the methodology of literature research and fieldwork. The fieldwork took place from the perspective of observing the pedagogical practice of teaching reading, in order to investigate how the educational activities are conducted in a reading room for the third year of elementary school, part of the municipal education Bauru- SP. Were used as instruments of data collection the questionnaire given to school teachers and the school studied the direct observation of teaching practice of one of these professionals. The results of data analysis indicate that the teachers surveyed know key content for teaching reading, as well as renovations of the theoretical and methodological studies of reading, with the consequence that the practices of reading done in the classroom limit the role of student as a reader and does not guarantee the formation of the reader

Validação de aplicativo comercial visando a incorporação da realidade aumentada a um modelo de avaliação pós-ocupação

Post-Occupancy Evaluation of buildings considers user satisfaction, building pathologies and performance, as well as users interventions in the built environment. The possibility of identifying interventions regardless of the user could provide a significant gain in the efficiency of Post-Occupancy Evaluations. We foresee the application of Augmented Reality (AR) to improve the identification of renovations by overlapping the construction information model with an image of the actual building. This article validates the use of AR on existing smartphone and tablet applications. This study proposes the incorporation of AR into the planning, execution and application of Post-Occupancy Evaluation. For the planning, this study proposes the development of a new research tool. With regards to the execution, this study examined the data collection conditions on site through the visualization of overlapping models. For the application, this study proposes displaying the results through the use of RA information layers. The transparency oft he RA model was used to allow comparison between the virtual model and the real model. The development and adaptation of the virtual model and the solution developed for the experiment of the RA proposal are presented and discussed. The experiment points to shortcomings that still make the proposed technological solution unfeasible.

Reabilitação de maxila atrófica com tecido ósseo homógeno e prótese fixa implantossuportada

The techniques of bone reconstruction for atrophic maxillae have been improved in order to promote bone tissue growth in both height and thickness. The grafts performed with use of autogenous bone is considered the gold standard by most researchers, for demonstrating osteogenic capacity and not to promote antigenic response. However, this type of grafting is not possible to get bone tissue in large quantity for extensive renovations. In recent years, alternatives have been researched to overcome the limitations of autogenous bone. Several alternatives have been investigated to supply the disadvantages of autogenous bone grafts. In such studies, allogeneic bone grafts which are obtained from individuals with different genetic load, but from the same species have been extensively used. They can be indicated in cases of arthrosplasty, surgical knee reconstruction, and large bone defects as well as in oral and maxillofacial reconstruction. Besides showing great applicability and biocompatibility, this type of bone is available in unlimited quantities. To rehabilitate atrophic maxillae an option that has been performed with high success rate is the reconstruction with bone graft followed by osseointegrated dental implants to rehabilitate the patient aesthetics and functionally. This paper aims to show the feasibility of allogenic bone as material for reconstruction of atrophic maxilla, and subsequent rehabilitation with metal ceramic fixed prosthesis implant and dental restoration with accompanying three years through literature review and clinical case report.

Na contramão do jornalismo Fast: as relações de subordinação entre mercado e universidade e a necessidade de se repensar a pedagogia do jornalismo

The Brazilian Journalism graduation was created in 1947, when Casper Líbero Foundation has teamed up with Philosophy's Faculty of the São Paulo's Catholic University and built the first Communication course in the country. Since then, the journalism curriculum has undergone several renovations, which influenced the profession in the country: five Currículos mínimos were created in 20 years, with the purpose of regulate journalism in the country, according to differents interests. These Curriculum left marks in Journalism that we feel today, like the perception that Journalism is a Communication's license, forcing students to be a versatile professional. Moreover, Journalism has serious teaching deficit, which separates theory from practice (functionalist perception). For the reasons above, experts in Communication, with the purpose of change the negative influence of these Currículos Mínimos, released a report in 2009, approved in 2013, with the Journalism's National Guidelines for the Journalism's graduation. The document intend to guide the discussion of the reformulation for the Journalism's curriculum in Brazil. Specifically, this paper seeks to contribute to the discussion of curriculum, of Political Pedagogic Project and national guidelines in the São Paulo State University - Universidade Estadual Paulista, UNESP. In this regard, the paper's applicant makes a study of the guidelines contained in the previous and current curriculum proposals, dissects the Journalism's National Curriculum Guidelines and offers help to speed up the discussion of the new Political Pedagogic Project for the journalism course
