Género e Desenvolvimento Rural As agricultoras de Chã de Cana enquanto actores de desenvolvimento local

O presente trabalho intitulado “Género e Desenvolvimento Rural - As mulheres de Chã de Cana enquanto actores de desenvolvimento local”: atenta para outras dimensões do desenvolvimento rural, com o objectivo de desmistificar cada vez mais a complexidade que caracteriza essa categoria social, com realce para as particularidades de género e da ruralidade. O trabalho foi realizado com base na análise de informações recolhidas através de entrevistas, confrontadas com as várias abordagens e propostas de desenvolvimento, com maior ênfase para as abordagens territoriais, dando uma particular atenção à questão de género. O enfoque “mulher em desenvolvimento” deve ser entendido como uma forma diferenciada de engajamento das mulheres de Chã de Cana no processo de desenvolvimento local, engajamento esse que deve considerar as heterogeneidades de género como particularidades resultantes de um processo de construção social, de um sistema de símbolos e valores que, tende a ser orgânico portanto, se complementam num complexo processo de interacção social, e de sociabilidade, por vezes espontâneos.

The Relationship between Teachers and Students in the Classroom: Communicative Language Teaching Approach and Cooperative Learning Strategy to Improve Learning

The aim of this research is to to investigate how a supportive relationship between teachers and students in the classroom can improve the learning process. By having a good relationship with students, teachers can offer to students chances to be motivated and feel engaged in the learning process. Students will be engaged actively in the learning instead of being passive learners. I wish to investigate how using communicative approach and cooperative learning strategies while teaching do affect and improve students’ learning performance. To achieve these goals qualitative data collection was used as the primary method. The results show that teachers and students value a supportive and caring relationship between them and that interaction is essential to the teacher-student relationship. This sense of caring and supporting from teachers motivates students to become a more interested learner. Students benefit and are motivated when their teachers create a safe and trustful environment. And also the methods and strategies teachers uses, makes students feel engaged and stimulated to participate in the learning process. The students have in their mind that a positive relationship with their teachers positively impacts their interest and motivation in school which contributes to the enhancement of the learning process.

Indústria, mineria i artesania en toponímia rural: el cas del municipi d’Osor (la Selva)

The study presented is interdisciplinary names: the presence of place names related with industrial, artisanal or mining activities in rural areas. The main hypothesis refers to this fact; the uniqueness of industrial, mining or craft in a rural area is an important reason to influence their names, a fact that gives archaeological value, remembering economic activities now disappeared. The methodology used for the study has been usually applied in onomastic studies: compilation of names from field work, oral interviews, archival work, revision of ancient documents and revision of works and studies related to the cartography of Osor. The final conclusion is that, as proposed in the hypothesis, in a rural area as the studied, the low presence of industrial, artisanal or mining activities have generated place names that have helped in keeping the memory of economic activities now disappeared

Habitudes alimentaires et image corporelle chez des étudiants de deuxième année de gymnase à Lausanne [Food habits and body image of students in Lausanne]

During adolescence, nutrition needs are high; however the literature shows that few adolescents are following standardized nutritional requirements. A few weeks before an intervention about nutrition to high school adolescents in Lausanne, they were invited to fill in a self-reported questionnaire about their nutrition modes and habits, and their self-image satisfaction (N = 198). Results show that only 5% of youth are eating 5 fruits and vegetables per day and only 29% 3 to 5 dairy products. 21% of female and 6% of boys are not satisfied about their self-image, and those exhibiting a poor self-image tend to adopt health compromising eating patterns in a higher proportion. During adolescence it is important not only to investigate the nutritional habits but also one's self image.
