A pós-graduação lato sensu da UFPA no contexto da mercantilização da educação superior

Este trabalho teve por objetivo analisar o processo de mercantilização da educação superior, partindo do estudo dos cursos de pós-graduação lato sensu da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA), no período de 2008 a 2012. Entendemos que a pós-graduação lato sensu - PGLS ganhou destaque no Brasil para atender a uma demanda de profissionais carentes de qualificação, em nível superior, para atuar no mercado de trabalho. No entanto, a partir de 1990, a mesma ganha novos contornos, sendo desvinculada da CAPES e sem um órgão regulador que controle sua oferta, aliado ao fato de não ser atendida pela política educacional de pós-graduação. O cenário que se encontra em vigor é a oferta de cursos autofinanciados e conveniados, sendo mantidos mediante cobrança de mensalidades ou convênio com outras instituições. O fato gera algumas contradições, como no caso da legislação, para a Constituição Federal de 1988 estabelece que o ensino seja gratuito em estabelecimentos oficiais, no entanto, o Conselho Superior de Ensino, Pesquisa e Extensão da UFPA aprovou a Resolução UFPA nº 4.065/2010, regulamentando a oferta desses cursos, caracterizando assim uma das faces de adoção da lógica mercantil no interior dessa universidade pública. Para nossas análises e discussões, buscamos aproximações com o materialismo histórico-dialético e utilizamos como fonte de dados os documentos oficiais nacionais e institucionais, dados disponíveis no Sistema de Pós-Graduação On Line, Relatório de Gestão da UFPA, Pareceres de Aprovação, Projetos e Relatórios dos Cursos selecionados para compor a pesquisa, bem como entrevista semiestruturada com 10 sujeitos. Os resultados da pesquisa mostraram que dos 264 cursos lato sensu ofertados entre 2008 e 2012, 65,2% destes foram autofinanciados, 22,7% conveniados e 12,1% gratuitos. Além disso, foram identificados valores diferenciados no pagamento de hora-aula, nas mensalidades e despesas com coordenadores, principalmente entre cursos de uma mesma unidade acadêmica. Ademais, a análise da utilização dos recursos captados mostra que nos cursos autofinanciados a maioria das despesas são para pagamento de hora-aula, já os cursos conveniados destinam a maioria das receitas para manutenção dos cursos com passagens, diárias, material de escritório, e outros. Em síntese, o estudo mostra a consolidação da mercantilização da PGLS na UFPA, haja vista a rentabilidade que estes cursos propiciam, principalmente para determinadas áreas do conhecimento, seja mediante complementação salarial, seja na adequação dessa instituição à dinâmica capitalista atual no prevalecimento da lógica mercantil para a pós-graduação lato sensu.

A influência da mídia na personalização política dos acadêmicos de jornalismo

This paper aims to present a survey of Journalism students from UNESP (Brazil) and from the University of Seville (Spain) which gathered data to assess the perception of the influence of the media on political decisions in this segment. Through empirical research - qualitative and quantitative – was observed, as a result, that digital media is still gaining ground in political campaigns and the effectiveness of actions organized through on line universe which are beginning to be proven, from the perspective of students. Furthermore, it was possible to realize the criticality that is developed within universities making students able to analyze the context in which they are in

Revista Follow: informação sobre redes sociais na internet

This experimental project consists of a proposal for an editorial product in a magazine format that approaches in its pages the aspects on the use of social media on internet. For the production of the reports the spheres of sociability, leisure and professional development were explored. The editorial product approached the editorials of sociability, leisure, culture, ethics, consumption, politics and sports. The influence of the social media was demonstrated in the scope of each of these editorials. The magazine, named Follow, was elaborated in order to reach readers ranging from 21 to 60 years old, with an accessible language. The first edition of Follow was concluded in November 2010, with the format 17,5 X 25,4 cm. The magazine has 40 pages of editorial content and 4 pages corresponding to the cover and back cover. Follow’s production proposed itself as a contribution to the practices of editorial innovation in the communication market

Desafios da comunicação na gestão da sustentabilidade ambiental das organizações contemporâneas

The present production aims to approach environmental sustainability and communication to demonstrate that the public relations´s professional is capable of legitimation process´s assistance of ethics and coherent speechs and capable of sense´s construction´s assistance for environmental sustainability on contemporary organizations. This position shows that organization´s consistent speechs are connected with its institutional mission and effort besides, it is value and sensitive to interested parts that emphasis the environmental preservation and environmental project´s introduction, integrating organization with community. On this context it is constructed a discussion about Sustainability Report´s content and guidelines used for sustainability reporting framework, as where as main environmental organizational activities, analyzing three different companies and its respective Sustainability Reports on 2009. Thereby, it is pointed out relevance of efficient communication which deal with opposite interests between organizations and its stakeholders so that public relations focus on strategic management trying to include negotiation, dialogue, transparency and ethics to line up both interests

Hydroxyurea in the sickle cell anemia: toxicity and effectiveness

Objective: to evaluate the use of hydroxyurea with regard to effectiveness and toxicity in people with sickle cell anemia. Method: this is a retrospective descriptive study, developed with 57 medical records of patients with sickle cell anemia, treated at the University Hospital Center of Campo Grande (Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil), from 1993 to 2005. Inclusion criteria: electrophoresis of hemoglobin in medical record; regular use of drugs, for an average of 196 weeks; dosage; and hematological analyses before starting treatment. Exclusion criteria: living with other hemoglobinopathies. The variables evaluated were: neutrophils count; platelets; leukocytes; hemoglobin; time using hydroxyurea; drug response to the optimal dosage; and number and type of episodes of hospitalization. The research protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, under the Protocol 645. Results: of the 57 medical records, 3 cases were evaluated. Comparing the hematological values, according to Portaria 872, enacted on 11/12/2002, it was found that: cases A, B, and C present an use of hydroxyurea (500 mg/day) for four years, with an average of 196 weeks. Case A, female, decreased painful episodes and frequency of hospitalization, keeping hematological values with no toxicity. In Case B, female, there was one hospitalization due to pain crises and important hemolysis. It stood out, in case C, male, neutropenia with hematological values < 2,000/mm3 . Conclusion: in the cases analyzed, we observed a drop in the number of hospitalizations with the decrease in painful crises from three to one a year, and there was no toxicity with regard to the dosage and time using hydroxyurea, in all three cases. For more comprehensive results, one suggests further study on this therapy with significant samples of this clientele.

Anemia and hemoglobinopathies in pregnant women attended in a public hospital

Objectives: to identify the demographic profile and frequency of anemia and hemoglobinopathies, as a basis for future implementation of actions aimed at pregnant women in the public health domain. Method: this is a cross-sectional study developed with pregnant women attended in a university hospital at Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Blood samples were collected for the erythrogram analysis for detection of anemia and selective and specific tests for abnormal hemoglobin. The patients regarded as indigenous and mentally ill, as well as inmates, were excluded from the research, as they represent a vulnerable population which needs a cohort different from that of the sample. For data collection, a particular questionnaire was used. The research was approved by the Ethics Committee of Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS), under the Protocol 873/2006. Results: of the 215 pregnant women under study, 20% were adolescents; 36.3% had incomplete primary education; 53.0% were non-Caucasian; 43.3% were from Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil; and 21.1% were of European descent. 17.7% had some type of anemia and, in the evaluation of hemoglobinopathies, 4.7% of patients were detected with some abnormal hemoglobin, with the following frequencies: 3.3% with HbAS; 0.9% with HbAC; and 0.5% with intermediate β-thalassemia. Conclusion: the frequencies of anemia and hemoglobinopathy found in these pregnant women showed the importance of early diagnosis, revealing indicators able to provide a basis for preventive and assistance actions for adequate clinical monitoring, reducing maternal and neonatal morbimortality in the public health services. Descriptors: pregnant women; anemia; hemoglobinopathies; public health; nursing.

A relativa legitimidade da depressão na atualidade: contribuições para uma ética psicanalítica do sujeito

This article is based on the author's clinical practice in the area of public health, and discusses depression as it is known today. Essentially, the author questions the practice of labeling depression as a psychopathological condition. The author also questions today’s trend of seeing a subject’s suffering as a "malaise," or a “disorder.” The possibility is brought up of understanding it as a "demand for analysis." Finally, the article is meant as a contribution to the ethics of psychoanalysis focused on the subject and the possibilities of psychoanalysis in subjectivating this "malaise."

A simulation tool for transient stability analysis on vector computers

This paper deals with transient stability analysis based on time domain simulation on vector processing. This approach requires the solution of a set of differential equations in conjunction of another set of algebraic equations. The solution of the algebraic equations has presented a scalar as sequential set of tasks, and the solution of these equations, on vector computers, has required much more investigations to speedup the simulations. Therefore, the main objective of this paper has been to present methods to solve the algebraic equations using vector processing. The results, using a GRAY computer, have shown that on-line transient stability assessment is feasible.
