Baixem de les tarimes i connectem: recerca en història medieval i innovació docent

We would like to introduce our group of research, [CONTRA TAEDIUM], created by professionals from different fields, that have contributed in this article. Our purpose is to expose our reflections based on our own experiences, not only in research, but also in teaching. We propose new forms of writing history in order to understand the dairy life of the women and men of the past, from birth to death. We would like to point out that interacting all types of sources is essential to understand our history. But, what really makes sense is to bring our students in the historical methodology and involve them in their education. Moreover, it is necessary to design new teaching materials using the new technologies, although it requires team-work and a great, but satisfying, effort

Són els símptomes de la fibromiàlgia la histèria del segle XXI?

Nowadays, fribromialgya is one of the nervous diseases with the highest comorbidity and chronic index. The peculiarity of this symptomatology is becausephysiological pain goes to different parts of the body. The symptomatology of fribromialgya and hysteria could have relation between them and even, sharing many similar simptoms. Therefore, we will focus on studyng two cases to resolve these questions and we will be able to see if fibromialgya has histerical symptoms.

Les TIC aplicades a la història de la infermeria

La cerca d'informació i el pensament crític són competències transversals que es consideren bàsiques per als estudiants universitaris. Aquestes dues competències s'han pogut desenvolupar en el marc d'una activitat denominada cerca i lectura crítica de documents històrics, que es va incloure dins dels crèdits pràctics de l'assignatura Història de la Professió. Les tasques consistien a fer una cerca bibliogràfica a través de les bases de dades més habituals per la Infermeria, obtenir un document històric, fer-ne una lectura crítica i confeccionar un informe escrit. Presentem l'activitat que es va oferir a tots els alumnes de segon semestre d'Infermeria (grups M6 T6), la seva metodologia i els resultats de la seva implementació, que mostren un grau molt elevat de satisfacció en l'alumnat i la seva utilitat en el foment de la lectura crítica.

Dies Irae, la seqüència perdurable : anàlisi i comparació de diferents lectures de la seqüència gregoriana en la història de la música

La seqüència gregoriana Dies Irae s'ha convertit en un material musical àmpliament utilitzat per compositors per dotar d'un significat concret a la seves obres. Però a mesura que han passat el segles es pot determinar que l'objectiu que han tingut els compositors en voler incloure una referència a aquesta seqüència ha variat notablement. En aquest treball tracto de demostrar quins canvis hi ha hagut segons l'època i el compositor, ja sigui des del punt de vista conceptual com des del punt de vista tècnic tot analitzant obres de moments i estils diferents, parant atenció a sis obres concretes que o tenen importància a causa de la seva influència o la seva singularitat. Alhora, exposo com tot això m'ha influït per compondre obres que estiguin relacionades amb el Dies Irae i amb la música al voltant de la mort.

Quinina: 470 anos de história, controvérsias e desenvolvimento

After 470 years, a history of development, international seed smuggling and scientific development that caused deep changes in our society, has reached an end. In 1638, the countess of Chinchón contracted a disease while in the Amazon rain forest and was healed by a potion used by the native inhabitants. In 1856, William H. Perkin while attempting to obtain synthetic quinine, discovered the mauveína, a molecule that changed the world. The synthesis of quinine was also the subject of a bitter controversy among two excellent scientists of the 20th century. During centuries, quinine was the only hope against malaria disease and its exploration almost extinguished the Cinchona tree.

Irradiação de micro-ondas aplicada à síntese orgânica: uma história de sucesso no Brasil

In South America, Brazil leads the publication of articles with the use of microwave irradiation possessing a large advantage in number of articles published over the others countries. The works were divided into four major areas: Catalysis, Reactions without Solvent, Heterocycles Chemistry, Natural Products and Other, and some could be classified in more than one category.

Efeitos da história térmica nas propriedades do polímero pet: um experimento para ensino de análise térmica

Polyethilenetherephtalate (PET) is commonly used in manufacturing of beverage bottles representing a didactic appeal in thermal analysis education due to its presence in the student's day life. Additionally such polymer presents well defined thermal analytical curves and a well known thermal behavior. TGA curve is used to present the thermal stability. The thermal history effects in the thermal properties of a PET sample from a soft drink bottle are used to demonstrate the effect of different heating/cooling conditions on glass transition, melting, crystallization and crystalline degree using DSC curves.

Investigando a presença da história da ciência em livros didáticos de Química Geral para o ensino superior

This paper aims at analyzing the history of science content of three general chemistry textbooks used in Brazilian universities: the translations of Kotz and Treichel's Chemistry & Chemical Reactivity, Atkins and Jones's Chemical Principles, and Garritz and Chamizo's Química. Results revealed different trends for the inclusion of history of science in chemistry teaching. Kotz & Treichel and Atkins & Jones used history mainly as curiosity and ornament. Garritz & Chamizo adopted the historical approach as one of the organizing axis of their textbook. Nevertheless, the historical content of the three textbooks may be criticized from current historiographical standpoint.

"Serpentes de Faraó": a história de uma brincadeira pirotécnica e sua aplicabilidade no ensino de princípios químicos básicos

Fun methodologies developed with alternative materials for teaching chemical reactions of carbon are interesting activities for discussing concepts of stoichiometry and thermochemistry. The decomposition of organic matter, CO2 production and coal formation can be demonstrated in the experiment "Pharaoh´s snake". This experiment is attractive since the simple combustion of sucrose generates a peculiar structure of coal. This paper proposes a simple methodology for making the sugar tablets used in the experiment and contextualizes the experimental observations with the chemical reaction of carbon which leads to coal and to the thermodynamics involving combustion processes.

ARSÊNIO E ARROZ: TOXICIDADE, METABOLISMO E SEGURANÇA ALIMENTAR

Arsenic is considered a semimetal, and its wide distribution in the Earth's crust in different chemical forms, including organic and inorganic species, has a great deal of influence on the mechanisms of toxicity. Exposure to arsenic can be either through occupational practice (use of pesticides) or by the consumption of water and food containing the element. Rice is considered a fundamental constituent of the basic diet of Brazilians and is usually cultivated in flooded conditions. Such a plantation system results in an increased amount of As in the soil and hence a greater accumulation of As in the plant, which is highlighted by the inorganic species' classification as highly toxic. Besides the use of mitigation techniques to reduce the toxicological risk, monitoring the concentration of As and its chemical species in rice and rice products is required through the establishment of legislation in the area. Thus, some world organizations are conducting improved research to determine and establish acceptable concentrations of As and its chemical species in rice, e. g., in 2012, FDA researchers described a chemical speciation methodology for As in rice and rice products. Hence, the application of existing chemical speciation methods and the establishment of parameters for ensuring food security and exposure risk assessment deserve particular consideration.

Tempo dos deuses, tempo dos homens: mito e história no político de Platão

O presente artigo realiza uma exegese do grande mito cósmico do Político de Platão, no intuito de mostrar que a representação da historicidade humana por ele alegoricamente elaborada ilustra e antecipa, em um registro simbólico, algumas das soluções teóricas exploradas pelo diálogo em sua conclusão a respeito das relações entre o melhor regime e a história.

A história como sacrifício em Blaise Pascal

Este trabalho desenvolve o tema da História em Pascal, bus­cando constituí-lo por meio da noção teológica de sacrifício. No contexto pascaliano, a História só é relevante enquanto História Espiritual, a história da salvação dos homens escolhidos entre os condenados pela queda adâmica. Como tal, a História não pode ser regida pela temporalidade vivida ordinaria­mente, mas pela temporalidade da graça, que direciona todos os instantes para o ponto central, o sacrifício de Jesus Cristo. Por isso, os homens só têm esperança de salvação na medida em que se integram ao Corpo Crístico, que prossegue em sacrifício desde o início até o fim dos tempos.

História e filosofia da história na obra do jovem Friedrich Schlegel

Este artigo apresenta e comenta dois textos do jovem Friedrich Schlegel, Vom Wert des Studiums der Griechen und Römer (Sobre o valor do estudo dos gregos e romanos), de 1795/1796, e Über das Studium der griechischen Poesie (Sobre o estudo da poesia grega), de 1795, escritos antes de sua ida para Jena, em 1796, nos quais o autor elabora uma teoria original sobre a história e a filosofia da história.
