A causalidade de porque em textos escolares: dom��nios de atua����o, g��neros de produ����o

In this article we address the causality conveyed by constructions with porque in compositions written by students from a public school. Our purpose is to compare factors of cognitive and discursive order for examining possible motivations related to the variability and to the complexity involved in causal constructions. The analysis that we propose assumes that porque may have different interpretations depending on the context of use and may indicate the cause of an actual event, or the cause of a belief, or the cause of a speech act. We consider some theses of ontogenetic nature that support that the most cognitively complex meanings appear later, but we hold that there are other issues at stake. In what follows, we present evidence that the emergence of different causal relations with porque also takes place as a result of the operation of discourse genres.

A pesca na Amaz��nia ocidental: tratamento terminol��gico dos termos fundamentais

Fishing is a very important activity in terms of economic and social development throughout the Amazon region. Text reading this topic revealed the presence of a terminology not yet systematized and record little research and scientific publications on the terminology of this activity. This article aims at analyzing the key terms of fishing. At first, we present a brief history of this activity in Western Amazonia, particularly in Rond��nia. The theoretical support was guided by Cabr�� (1999), with her Communicative Theory of Terminology, Aubert (1996), Barbosa (2002), Barros (2004), Biderman (2006), Babini (2006) and linguists as Baldinger (1966) and Pottier (1974) that reveal the details of linguistic analysis terminology. The creation of an electronic corpus, from texts of technical and documental discourse, theses and websites, composed the first stage of our work. Afterwards, collect the terms and fill the terminological records in our database. The terms were organized into a conceptual system with three notional fields: riverside community, type of fishing, gillnet fishing. Early results show that the set of terms collected is characterized by the strong presence of simple and complex terms, and less compound terms.

What does research say about the Special and General Relativity Theory Teaching?

Na literatura da ��rea de Ensino de F��sica encontramos diversos argumentos em defesa da inclus��o, nos curr��culos escolares do Ensino M��dio, de conte��dos de F��sica Moderna e Contempor��nea. A Teoria da Relatividade Especial e Geral (ao lado da Mec��nica Qu��ntica) �� um dos pilares da F��sica Moderna. Consideramos significativo e oportuno obter um panorama da produ����o acad��mica sobre o ensino e aprendizagem deste t��pico. Nosso objetivo �� sintetizar os avan��os, as converg��ncias e sinalizar perspectivas, com o intuito de contribuir para um avan��o e defesa dos trabalhos futuros. Assim, procuramos resposta para a quest��o: Quais as contribui����es da pesquisa em Ensino de F��sica para que a Teoria da Relatividade Especial e Geral (TREG) possa ser abordada no Ensino M��dio?

Avalia����o dos efeitos de aloe-emodin em c��lulas uroteliais imortalizadas e neopl��sicas cultivadas in vitro

Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis Miller), popularly known in Brazil as babosa, has a long history of use as medicinal plant for different therapeutic purposes. The components of the plant extract are present in various products of human use, mainly for nutritional and cosmetics purposes. However, some studies suggest that this extract might also have carcinogenic activity. The aloe vera extract is a complex mixture of bioactive compounds. The study of isolated compounds may contribute to elucidate contradictory results about the effects related to the consumption of the plant, as well as their mechanisms of action. One of the most important compound from Aloe vera is aloe-emodin, which is a secondary metabolite generated in the intestinal tract. Putative antimicrobial and antitumor effects were previously attributed to aloe-emodin. Although the exposure of urothelial cells to aloe-emodin was already reported in the literature, only one study showed its effects on urothelial cells, suggesting that aloe-emodin inhibits the viability of T24 cancer cells due to apoptosis induction. Since there is no sufficient information about the effects of aloe-emodin on urothelial cells, and low efficiency in the treatment of bladder cancer currently, the present study aims to evaluate the hypothesis that the treatment with aloe-emodin could impact the behavior of other urothelial cell lines in vitro. Therefore, the in vitro IC50 exposure of aloe-emodin to human immortalized neoplastic urothelial cells will be determinated in order to verify possible differences in the behavior of urothelial cells in vitro treated with aloe-emodin in comparison with untreated cells. Furthermore, differences between cell lines will be also evaluated

Avalia����o dos processos de tratamento do glicerol proveniente da produ����o do biodiesel

The substitution of diesel by biodiesel meets the current scenario to increase the consumption of alternative energy sources promoting sustainable development of a country. However, the production of biodiesel concurrently generates the formation of glycerine in the process is a by-product. The main application of glycerine is in the food industry, cosmetics, soaps, pharmaceuticals, among others, but these segments are not capable of absorbing the generated volume of glycerine, whereas the total volume of the biodiesel produced about 10% correspond to glycerine. Glycerine obtained from the transesterification reaction (necessary for production of biodiesel) triglycerides and alcohol contains certain impurities such as water, salts, esters, alcohol, and residual oil, which decrease the value. Thus, the purification process or the direct use of glycerine become essential to make it competitive biodiesel production process. This work aims to evaluate the different processes of purification and the use of glycerine obtained as by-product in the production of biodiesel. The research was theoretical, based on technical articles and theses published on this subject, and from these databases was established a summary of the most important processes

ENGA: trajet��ria, mem��ria e perspectivas

A Geografia brasileira ainda carece de sua hist��ria. Nos anos mais recentes, numerosos artigos t��m aparecido, tentando recuperar essa falha, mas nota-se, ainda, a falta de um documento mais abrangente, que recupere os momentos fundamentais, os acertos e os erros, os avan��os e as crises no progresso do conhecimento geogr��fico desenvolvido entre n��s. E a lacuna se faz sentir, tamb��m, em termos de informa����es precisas sobre pesquisas, eventos, trabalhos publicados e teses defendidas, sem as quais n��o se pode reconstruir, de forma segura, a trajet��ria da Geografia brasileira. (DINIZ et al., 1987, p. 3)

Espa��o, territ��rio e paisagem: uma leitura te��ricometodol��gica da Geografia Agr��ria brasileira na p��s-gradua����o a partir dos anos 1970

The aim of this study was to propose a reading of theoretical and methodological geography of Brazilian agriculture in Post-Graduate Studies in Geography (PPGE's) from the Southeast, from the 1970s, trying to present a discussion of the analysis categories (space, territory, landscape, region and place) that has been unleashed over the meetings of Agrarian Geography (ENGA's) and in three meetings of the Research Groups of Agrarian Geography (2005, 2006, 2007). So, we started with the hypothesis that the relativization of scientific concepts may impair development of spatial concepts only. To accomplish our objective we carried out a survey of dissertations and theses supported in the period 1970 to 2009, in Post-Graduate in Geography and UFU UFMG (Minas Gerais), UFRJ, UFF and UERJ (Rio de Janeiro) and USP, UNESP / Rio Claro, UNESP / Presidente Prudente (Sao Paulo). The evaluation dealt with the quantitative and drew a profile of Agrarian Geography. Qualitatively, further analysis, crossing information, contextualizing the themes and especially evaluating the theoretical set referenced in the works, an indication of the possible paths followed by this branch of the Brazilian Geography for which it is observed that the references to the categories space and, more specifically the organization of space, was prioritized in the 1980s and the territory as a reference work after 1990.

A met��fora fundamental do discurso de John Dewey

This work aims to identify the rootmetaphor of John Dewey���s philosophical and educational discourse, by means of rhetorical analyses parameters. This methodology is founded in Aristotle and in the works of Cha��m Perelman and other contemporary authors involved in the revision of Aristotelian philosophy. The article examines the essays ���The philosophical work of Herbert Spencer��� and ���The influence of darwinism on philosophy���, published by John Dewey respectively in 1904 e 1909. They were written in the early years of Dewey in Columbia University, which intellectual environment was not dominated by Pragmatism, and for this reason they can be considered seminal in the structuring of the author���s arguments. The analysis reveals that Dewey is favorable to Darwinian evolutionism thesis and opposite to Spencer���s one. This positioning suggests that Dewey���s discourse is bound to the metaphor ���undetermined route��� because it situates evolution as a process devoid of previously listed purposes at a pre-determined plan, subject only to the relations that are established, so unpredictable, between organisms and the environmental conditions that surround. Analyzing Dewey���s ideas about education, the article concludes that ���undetermined route��� is the rootmetaphor of Dewey���s discourse, hypothesis that can contribute to discuss Dewey in the context of contemporary philosophy.

Or��amento Participativo (OP) ap��s vinte anos de experi��ncias no Brasil: mais qualidade na gest��o or��ament��ria municipal?

This article consists on an analysis of dissertations and thesis on Participatory Budget (PB) in post-graduation courses in Brazil (from the CAPES data bank), from 2000 to 2009. It also makes the evolution of works explicit, the institutions where they were carried out, and the area in which they were produced. Results show that the Participatory Budget has not been often evaluated, understood and explained in terms of its finance and budget technical dimension, in spite of there are two decades studies have been carried out regarding this method on budget management in Brazil. Finally, the importance of understanding aspects on PB must be taken into consideration when carrying out new studies.

O estudo das pr��ticas de professores alfabetizadores no ensino da leitura e da escrita (1980 a 2005): o mudar �� muito dif��cil

Neste artigo, apresentamos os resultados de um estudo que investigou o que as pesquisas dos Programas de P��s-Gradua����o em Educa����o do Estado de S��o Paulo produzidas entre 1980 e 2005, com foco nas pr��ticas de professores alfabetizadores, dizem a respeito dos procedimentos, pr��ticas e saberes que caracterizam a atua����o desses docentes. Primeiramente, fazemos uma breve contextualiza����o da alfabetiza����o. Em seguida, destacamos a an��lise do corpus (8 teses e 32 disserta����es) nos focos tem��ticos: procedimentos de alfabetiza����o, pr��ticas docentes e saberes docentes. Os dados apresentados neste artigo permitem apontar perman��ncias e ind��cios de altera����es nas pr��ticas dos alfabetizadores e, consequentemente, nas pesquisas sobre essas pr��ticas.
