Os estágios supervisionados do curso de pedagogia da Universidade Federal do Maranhão

Este trabalho propos-se a analisar a função legalmente proclamada do Estigio Supervisionado das habili taçoes do Curso de Pedagogia da Universidade Federal do Ma ranhão - UFMA. A partir desse pressuposto, procurou-se estu dar a função do Estágio em relação ao contexto social mais amplo. Nesse sentido, foi necessário fazer uma retrospecti va hist~rica sobre a Universidade do Maranhão, uma vez que nao se pode isolar a relação parte/todo. A fim de apreender o fenômeno estudado dentro de sua totalidade concreta, optou-se tambem pelo levanta mento e análise de dados empiricos sobre a realidade dos Estigios Supervisionados das habilitações Administração, Supervisão e Inspeção Escolar, Orientação Educacional e Ma gisterio do Curso de Pedagogia da U.F.MA. Como resultado dessa análise, constatou-se que o Estágio Supervisionado não representa na realidade, o elo de ligação entre conhecimentos teóricos e o trabalho concre to; os conteúdos das disciplinas teóricas desenvolvidas no Curso de Pedagogia da UFMA não servem de suporte ã praxis do Estágio; a parte prática do Estágio apresenta um caráter meramente utilitarista. Diante dessas considerações, concluiu-se que o Estágio Supervisionado do Curso de Pedagogia da UFMA , sob qualquer enfoque teórico analisado necessita ser revis tado. Dai, apresentou-se, como sugestao, a proposta do Está g-io Supervisionado' Integrado das habilitações Administr.ação, Supervisão e Inspeção Escolar, O~ientaçio Educacional 'e 'Ma gisterio que visa a apreensão da realidade global da Escol~ atraves de uma pritica de inserção, integradora dos ':er.emen tos que efetivamente atuam na organização escolar. o Estágio Supervisionado Integrado deverá se desenvolver em tres momentos: observação em sala de aula; estudo da es trutura e funcionamento da escola; e elabor a çao e aplicação d e propostas alternativas.

Touch ‘n’ sketch: pen and fingers on a multi-touch sketch application for tablet PC’s

In many creative and technical areas, professionals make use of paper sketches for developing and expressing concepts and models. Paper offers an almost constraint free environment where they have as much freedom to express themselves as they need. However, paper does have some disadvantages, such as size and not being able to manipulate the content (other than remove it or scratch it), which can be overcome by creating systems that can offer the same freedom people have from paper but none of the disadvantages and limitations. Only in recent years has the technology become massively available that allows doing precisely that, with the development in touch‐sensitive screens that also have the ability to interact with a stylus. In this project a prototype was created with the objective of finding a set of the most useful and usable interactions, which are composed of combinations of multi‐touch and pen. The project selected Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools as its application domain, because it addresses a solid and well‐defined discipline with still sufficient room for new developments. This was the result from the area research conducted to find an application domain, which involved analyzing sketching tools from several possible areas and domains. User studies were conducted using Model Driven Inquiry (MDI) to have a better understanding of the human sketch creation activities and concepts devised. Then the prototype was implemented, through which it was possible to execute user evaluations of the interaction concepts created. Results validated most interactions, in the face of limited testing only being possible at the time. Users had more problems using the pen, however handwriting and ink recognition were very effective, and users quickly learned the manipulations and gestures from the Natural User Interface (NUI).

Mapeamento cromossômico de genes ribossomais em espécies estuarinas da família Gerreidae Identificação de uniformidade cariotípica e sua empregabilidade com fins biotecnológicos - REPROGEN

Perciformes are dominant in the marine environment, characterized as the largest and most diverse fish group. Some families, as Gerreidae, popularly known as silver jennies, carapebas, or mojarras have a high economic potential to marine fish farming, natural explotation and game fishing. Genetic information of these species are of fundamental importance for their management and production. Despite exist over 13,000 marine fish species described, only 2% were cytogenetically analyzed and less than 1% have some reproductive characteristics known. Induced breeding, cytogenetic characterization and cryopreservation of gametes, represent important areas in applied fish studies. In this project cytogenetic analyzes were performed to acess genetic aspects of Gerreidae species, distributed in coastal and estuarine regions of Northeast Brazil. Different methods for identifying chromosomal regions were employed using conventional techniques (Ag-NORs, C-banding), staining with base-specific fluorochromes (DAPI-CMA3), and physical mapping of ribosomal genes 18S and 5S rDNA, through hybridization in situ with fluorescent probes (FISH). The six species analyzed showed remarkable chromosome conservatism. The 18S and 5S ribosomal genes when analyzed in phylogenetic perspective demonstrate varied evolutionary dynamics, suggesting ocurrence of stasis process in some groups and greater dynamism in others. Double FISH with 18S and 5S probes showed both how efficient cytotaxonomic markers in the homogeneous karyotypes of this group of species. The karyotypic pattern identified in addition to the evolutionary aspects of karyotype, are suggestive of existence of low potential of post-zygotic barrier, prompting further research to prospect for artificial interspecific hybridization of these species of commercial importance

Crescimento inicial do cafeeiro irrigado com água salina e salinização do solo

The coffee crop is expanding to new areas with not enough studies about its response to saline irrigation water. The initial growth of coffee plant was evaluated, in greenhouse at the Engineering Department of the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA), under different levels of irrigation water salinity. The completely randomized design was used with 6 treatments (S0 = 0.0 dS m -1, S1 = 0.6 dS m -1, S2 = 1.2 dS m -1, S3 = 1.8 dS m -1, S4 = 2.4 dS m -1 and S5 = 3.0 dS m -1) and 4 replications. The irrigation was accomplished according to soil water retention curve and resistance block reading, restoring the soil water content to its field capacity. It was verified that water salinity affected the plants characteristics significantly. The water salinity above 1.2 dS m -1 caused damage to plant development resulting, in some cases, in death of plants. The leaf area of plant was the variable most affected by salinity of irrigation water. By the end of the experiment, the soil was classified as saline-sodic.

Linguagem e identidade: a construção discursiva das identidades sociais em interações com menores infratores

Este trabalho analisa a construção discursiva das identidades sociais em três interações com menores infratores sob o regime semiliberdade. O objetivo desta investigação é correlacionar língua e identidades. Para isto, o estudo começa por problematizar as idéias sobre o sujeito e sua identificação com diferentes centros sociais numa sociedade moderna e plural. Destaca, também, a influência das instituições na formação identitária do indivíduo, especialmente das instituições reguladoras para menores infratores e do Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente (ECA). Assim, relaciona o estigma, socialmente construído, às contingências identitárias com os quais os menores se deparam nas interações verbais. Deste modo, recorre a abordagens teóricas que consideram a língua em seu contexto social, como a Sociolingüística Interacional e as teorias da Enunciação, como também a outras áreas do conhecimento, como os Estudos Culturais e a Psicologia Social. É uma investigação de cunho interpretativista e etnográfico que analisa a construção das identidades sociais por meio de diferentes alinhamentos e enquadres no discurso, e estuda a relação do discurso dos adolescentes com os discursos que circulam na unidade onde estão e na sociedade. Para tanto, entrevistas com funcionários e pessoas que visitam o referido local foram realizadas, assim como notas de campo sobre a situação social dos participantes foram tomadas. O trabalho observa as identidades emergentes mais relevantes no discurso dos menores, tais como a identidade estigmatizada, a identidade religiosa, as familiares e a identidade da transformação, sempre formadas na sua necessária relação com o outro. A análise revela o conflito entre a identidade do infrator e as identidades, consideradas socialmente como normais, o que demonstra a complexidade das identidades sociais e suscita novas problematizações a serem consideradas em pesquisas futuras.

Um estudo sobre a preparação metalográfica da liga de aluminio AA7075-T6

The increasing technological innovation and demand for materials with better properties boosts research into new materials and new alloys. To do so, aluminum alloys are being developed, among them the AA7075-T6, having many applications in aerospace and military industries, machinery and equipment, molds for plastic injection and structures. To study and understand the properties, characteristics and especially the microstructure of the material, the metallographic preparation is essential. This paper presents new methodologies to achieve the metallography of samples of scrap alloy AA7075-T6, with emphasis on methods of polishing. For the five samples, the best results were those with specific grinding, the samples only going down on the sander. For polishing, the most effective method so far has been using the polishing cloth 16.3, of ATM enterprise, solution of diamond 3 μm, solution of diamond 1 μm, and colloidal solution of OP-S. For the etching, the reactive agent used was phosphoric acid (H3PO4) 85% P.A., as 90% in the proportion of distilled water to 10% acid. The best results were obtained in the attacks of 300 and 240 seconds, revealing the grain boundaries in most areas. Methodologies need more studies and more tests, but the results have proved to be satisfactory

Imagery of a moving object: the role of occipital cortex and human MT/V5+

Visual imagery – similar to visual perception – activates feature-specific and category-specific visual areas. This is frequently observed in experiments where the instruction is to imagine stimuli that have been shown immediately before the imagery task. Hence, feature-specific activation could be related to the short-term memory retrieval of previously presented sensory information. Here, we investigated mental imagery of stimuli that subjects had not seen before, eliminating the effects of short-term memory. We recorded brain activation using fMRI while subjects performed a behaviourally controlled guided imagery task in predefined retinotopic coordinates to optimize sensitivity in early visual areas. Whole brain analyses revealed activation in a parieto-frontal network and lateral–occipital cortex. Region of interest (ROI) based analyses showed activation in left hMT/V5+. Granger causality mapping taking left hMT/V5+ as source revealed an imagery-specific directed influence from the left inferior parietal lobule (IPL). Interestingly, we observed a negative BOLD response in V1–3 during imagery, modulated by the retinotopic location of the imagined motion trace. Our results indicate that rule-based motion imagery can activate higher-order visual areas involved in motion perception, with a role for top-down directed influences originating in IPL. Lower-order visual areas (V1, V2 and V3) were down-regulated during this type of imagery, possibly reflecting inhibition to avoid visual input from interfering with the imagery construction. This suggests that the activation in early visual areas observed in previous studies might be related to short- or long-term memory retrieval of specific sensory experiences.
