A educação no meio rural de Barreiro-Ijuí-RS

O tema central versa sobre a educação existente no meio rural de Barreiro. Barreiro é uma pequena comunidade que se encontra no interior do município de Ijuí, ao Nordeste do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A população dedica-se às atividades agrícolas. Como qualquer aglomerado humano, Barreiro tem sua história. História de desenvolvimento, de processos de trabalho, de tradições culrurais e de formas de educação. Partindo do pressuposto de que a inovação tecnológica atua, não somente sobre as relações técnicas do homem com a natureza , mas também sobre as instituições e estruturas sociais, procurou-se evidenciar a influência da modernização da agricultura sobre a educação e as mudanças ocorridas em relação às tradições. Para isso, partiu-se da descrição da forma de ocupaçao da terra. Seguiu-se com um apanhado sobre as fases evolutivas do processo de trabalho, ou seja, das sucessivas inovações tecnológicas . Procurou-se mostrar os vínculos entre as formas de trabalho e as consequentes mudanças aparadas nas tradições familiares, religiosas, educacionais e no relacionamento entre os participantes do grupo social. Teve-se em mente observar e analisar a influência de organismos estranhos ao grupo, como a Cooperativa "COTRIJUÍ", os financiamentos bancários e a ação do "Movimento Comunitário de Base" , mantido pela Fundação de Ensino Superior de Ijuí, enquanto forças induzidas de fora , para provocar mudanças nos processos de produção agrícola e de mentalidade. No centro das discussões enoontra-se a suposição de que as formas de educação extra-escolar, tradicionais, e de que a Educação escolar, não são inovadoras por si próprias. A educação em geral está sujeita às mudanças e introdução de nova tecnologia do processo produtivo, mais do que a prospecção que a educação passa projetar por sua força intrínseca e própria. Para tal demonstração , procurou-se examinar a evolução da escola de Barreiro e verificar em que medida a inovaçao do currículo e da atuação pedagógica esteve e está condicionada às transformações do processo produtivo, sobretudo, de atual modernização da agricultura. Contudo, deve-se observar que a Lei 5692 do Ensino Fundamental, fez concretizar a modernização do ensino que o desenvolvimento tecnológico estava exigindo.

Simulação e análise econômica da produção in vivo e in vitro de embriões em bovinos

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the variables number of recipients, synchronization protocol, reproductive efficiency indicators and pregnancy cost, in the economic effectiveness of in vivo and in vitro bovine embryo production. A simulation application was elaborated to allow the user to insert the input variable parameters. A basic scenario, from the efficiency traditional rates of in vivo (ET) and in vitro production (IVP) techniques of bovine embryos, was introduced in the software as a criterion to compare the results. This software was able to reproduce both ET and IVP scenarios. The embryo production was simulated through stochastic simulation. The optimal number of recipients using sensitivity analysis was determined. The net present value and cost per pregnancy were used as a decision parameter. The synchronization for fixed-time embryo transfer decreased the recipient idleness and, consequently, the final cost of pregnancy, in comparison to the traditional methodology. Foetal sexing must be associated to IVP of bovine embryos. In addition, the optimal recipient number per donor is variable and depends on data inserted in the system.

Por uma educação ambiental corporalizada :a emoção em trilhas interpretativas

Prétendant contribuer au progrès sur le champ épistémologique de l éducation environnementale, nous avons défini l objetif principal de cette recherche visant construire et évaluer initialement des structures éco-vécues appliquées aux sentiers écologiques interprétatifs dans des zones de protection environnementale. Pour conduire la tâche de l investigation écophénoménologique, l objectif présent a été déplié spécifiquement de la façon suivante: 1. Approfondir la discussion sur le rôle de l émotion et du sentiment dans l éducation. 2. Démarquer un trajet de sentier écologique du Parque das Dunas en identifiant des aires éco-sensorielles pour le développement du vécu écologique. 3. Construire des structures des vécus écologiques pour les environnements préalablement définis dans un sentier du Parque das Dunas. 4. Vivre l expérience des structures éco-vécues en tant qu éducateurs, visant leur validation méthodologique. 5. Présenter la conception de l éducation environnementale corpororalisée qui valorise les émotions et les sentiments dans les structures des éco-vécus. Pour orienter notre investigation écophénoménologique à fin de construire et évaluer des structures des éco-vécues appliquées aux sentiers écologiques interprétatifs, quelques présupposés ont été définis pour agir comme une boussole pendant toute notre promenade écologique: Du point de vue biologique, l amour est l émotion qui constitue le domaine des actions dans lequel l autre est accepté comme il est dans le présent, sans attente par rapport aux conséquences de l intimité, même si c est légitime de les attendre (Maturana e Verden-Zöller, 2004). Éduquer dans la biologie de l amour est s occuper du développement, de la pensée et des intelligences et, au même temps, éduquer l écoute du sentiment et l ouverture du coeur (Moraes, 2003). La corporéité est le siège radiant, le premier et le principal le critère éducationnel (Assmann, 1995). Les activités qui fluent, proportionnent la sensation de découverte, un sentiment créatif qui transpose l individu vers une nouvelle réalité (Csikszntmihalyi, 1992). Ressentir le sentiment fait exalter la portée des émotions (Damásio, 2004). L ethnographie et l écophénoménologie ont été les approches méthodologiques utilisées dans l étude. Onze éducateurs ont participé du processus de l expérience vécue et de l évaluation des structures éco-vécues construites dans la perspective d une Education Environnementale Corporalisée. Le développement de la conception d une Education Environnementale Corporalisée à partir du vécu sur les sentiers écologiques du Parque das Dunas, à Natal-RN, nous a amenés à structurer un système autopoïétique pour proposer des propriétés ou des principes configurant les intentions fondamentales d une Éducation Environnementale Corporalisée. Telle conception considère la métaphore de la Toile de la Corporéité vécue dans la Base de Recherche Corporéité et Éducation BACOR/UFRN et le phénomène de la ludopoïèse capable de faire émerger la joie de vivre la vie avec le sens de luminescence humaine. Associés à la Biologie de l amour, nous espérons pouvoir contribuer à la présence des émotions et des sentiments pour une perspective transdisciplinaire et corporalisée pour l Education Environnementale. Nous présentons cinq principes de guidage pour la concrétisation d une Education Environnementale Corporalisée: Ecopréservation, Ecoterritorialité, Ecoconectivité, Ecovaleur, Ecojouissance

O discurso autobiográfico nos relatos de viagem de Nísia Floresta

En plein XIXe siècle, Nísia Floresta Brasileira Augusta a écrit sur deux voyages faits en Europe. Quelques années plus tard, cette norte-rio-grandense a livré au public ses récits de voyage : Itinéraire d un voyage en Allemagne (1857) et Trois ans en Italie Suivis d un Voyage en Grèce (1864/1872). Malgré les particularités qui entourent chacun de ces récits, un aspect y est fortement présent : les marques autobiographiques. Notre travail a comme principal objectif enquêter comment se manifeste ce discours autobiographique. A partir de l‟Analyse du Discours, nous avons travaillé quelques positionnements sur certaines oeuvres littéraires, comme par exemple, le fait qu‟elles aient plus d‟un genre. Ce qui se passe dans les récits de voyage de Nísia Floresta est semblable, car au-délà de raconter le passage de Nísia par ces lieux, nous pouvons trouver des caractéristiques qui appartiennent à l‟écriture fragmentaire, autobiographique et épistolaire. Devant les propositions indiquées par Philippe Lejeune, nous avons pu confirmer que ces récits de Nísia font partie de l‟écriture autobiographique. Sous l‟optique de quelques théories, nous avons parcouru des points intéressants qui enveloppent ces récits et, de cette façon, nous avons voyagé avec Nísia Floresta par l‟Allemagne et ultérieurement par l‟Italie et Grèce, en connaissant ainsi, pas seulement un peu plus sur ces lieux, mais beaucoup de confidences sur cette écrivain potiguar, qui a ouvert son coeur au plublic

Com quantas ave-marias se faz uma santa? relicário de vozes sobre a santa menina

Ce travail a comme objectif analyser la structure et l'efficacité d'un système symbolique, qui est configuré à travers qui le philosophe Dufour (2000), à partir du linguiste Benveniste (1995) et du philosophe Lyotard (1998), dans la manutention et la sustentation des récits et d'histoires, appelle de trinité naturel des la langue. C'est sous cet appareil, inscrit à travers des pronomes « moi », « toi » et « lui » qui nous étudierons les suivantes questions: 1. comme s'il établit, synchronement, la mise à jour du mythe religieux Santa Menina présente dans la ville de Florânia, gêné dans le coeur broussard du Rio Grande do Norte? 2. qui manière, diachronement, les récits sur mentionné mythe s´il récupère? Le culte religieux à la Santa Menina est marqué discoursivement à travers d´un univers à facettes multiples qui se soutient à travers les voix de floranienses sur l'histoire d'une fille, dont le corps est trouvé intact et qui, sacralitée par la population, est connu comme la Santa Menina. Une histoire qui, notamment, avait/a répercussion et résonance, en participant, efficacement, des la réalité culturelle des la population. Théoriquement, notre travail est nourri par des savoirs arrivés, des la Linguistique, et des études sur la Mémoire et l'Histoire Verbale

Viability of human fibroblasts in coconut water as a storage medium

P>AimTo evaluate the effectiveness of a new storage medium for avulsed teeth, coconut water, in maintaining the viability of human fibroblasts.MethodologyCell viability after different time periods was evaluated in the following storage media: coconut water, coconut water with sodium bicarbonate, milk, saline and still mineral water. Human fibroblasts were seeded in Eagle's minimal essential medium (EMEM) supplemented with 7.5% foetal calf serum. After trypsinisation, 100 mu L of culture medium containing approximately 10(4) cells mL(-1) were collected and pipetted into the wells of 96-well plates, which were incubated overnight in 5% CO(2) and 95% air mixture at 37 degrees C. EMEM was then replaced by the storage media and the plates were incubated at 37 degrees C for 1, 2 and 4 h. Cell viability was determined using the neutral red assay. The proportions of viable cells after exposure to the storage media were analysed statistically by anova and the least significant difference (LSD) test (alpha = 5%).ResultsMilk had the greatest capacity to maintain cell viability (P < 0.05), followed by coconut water with sodium bicarbonate and saline. Coconut water was significantly worse at maintaining cell viability compared to milk, coconut water with sodium bicarbonate and saline. The smallest number of viable cells was observed for mineral water (P < 0.05).ConclusionCoconut water was worse than milk in maintaining human fibroblast cell viability.

Annexin-A1 gene expression during liver development and post-translation modification after experimental endotoxemia

Objective and design: We have previously reported a role for annexin-A1 in liver proliferation and tumorogenicity as well as its action as an acute phase protein in a model of endotoxemia in interleukin-6 null mice.Material and methods: In this study, we have investigated the analysis of the gene and protein expression in annexin-A1 null mice and the wild type livers during foetal and adult life, and in the presence of a proinflammatory stimulus.Results: The data indicate a link between the expression of the annexin-A1 as serine-phosphorylated-protein during early events of the inflammatory response and as tyrosine-phosphorylated-form at later time-points, during the resolution of inflammation.Conclusions: The study of annexin-A1 post-translation modification may promote a new annexin-A1 peptide discovery programme to treat specific pathologies.

Transplacental Transfer of Iron in the Water Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis): Uteroferrin and Erythrophagocytosis

The objectives of this investigation were to understand transplacental transport of iron by secreted uteroferrin (UF) and haemophagous areas of water buffalo placenta and clarify the role(s) of blood extravasation at the placental-maternal interface. Placentomes and interplacentomal region of 51 placentae at various stages of gestation were fixed, processed for light and transmission electron microscopy, histochemistry and immunohistochemistry. Haemophagous areas were present in placentomes collected between 4 and 10 months of pregnancy. Perl's reaction for ferric iron was negative in placentomes, but positive in endometrial glands. Positive staining for UF indicated areas in which it was being taken up by phagocytosis and/or fluid phase pinocytosis in areolae of the interplacentomal mesenchyme, with little staining in endometrial stroma. Imunohistochemistry detected UF in trophectoderm of haemophagous regions of placentomes and in other parts of the foetal villous tree, but the strongest immunostaining was in the epithelial cells and lumen of uterine glands. Ultrastructural analyses indicated that erythrophagocytosis was occurring and that erythrocytes were present inside cells of the chorion that also contained endocytic vesicles and caveolae. Results of this study indicate that both the haemophagous areas of placentomes and the areolae at the interface between chorion and endometrial glands are important sites for iron transfer from mother to foetal-placental tissues in buffalo throughout pregnancy.

Modulation of Maternal Immune System During Pregnancy in the Cow

There is a molecular crosstalk between the trophoblast and maternal immune cells of bovine endometrium. The uterine cells are able to secrete cytokine/chemokines to either induce a suppressive environment for establishment of the pregnancy or to recruit immune cells to the endometrium to fight infections. Despite morphological differences between women and cows, mechanisms for immune tolerance during pregnancy seem to be conserved. Mechanisms for uterine immunesuppression in the cow include: reduced expression of major histocompatability proteins by the trophoblast; recruitment of macrophages to the pregnant endometrium; and modulation of immune-related genes in response to the presence of the conceptus. Recently, an eGFP transgenic cloned embryo model developed by our group showed that there is modulation of foetal proteins expressed at the site of syncytium formation, suggesting that foetal cell can regulate not only by the secretion of specific factors such as interferon-tau, but also by regulating their own protein expression to avoid excessive maternal recognition by the local immune system. Furthermore, foetal DNA can be detected in the maternal circulation; this may reflect the occurrence of an invasion of trophoblast cells and/or their fragment beyond the uterine basement membrane in the cow. In fact, the newly description of exosome release by the trophoblast cell suggests that could be a new fashion of maternal-foetal communication at the placental barrier. Additionally, recent global transcriptome studies on bovine endometrium suggested that the immune system is aware, from an immunological point of view, of the presence of the foetus in the cow during early pregnancy.
