The calculation of tooth mass discrepancy, essential for good planning and a proper orthodontic finishing, when performed manually, besides being laborious, requires considerable time consumption. The aim of this study was to develop and test Bolton Freeware, a software for analysis of the tooth mass discrepancy of Bolton, aiming to minimize the consumption of time in a less onerous way. The digital analysis of the software was done by means of two-dimensional scanning of plaster study models and compared to manual evaluation (gold standard), using 75 pairs of stone plaster study models divided into two groups according to the magnitude of the Curve of Spee (group I from 0 to 2 mm, group II greater than 2 to 3mm). All the models had permanent dentition and were in perfect condition. The manual evaluation was performed with a digital caliper and a calculator, and the time required to perform the analysis for both methods was recorded and compared. In addition, the software was evaluated by orthodontists regarding its use, by means of questionnaires developed specifically for this purpose. Calibration was performed prior to manual analysis, and excellent levels of inter-rater agreement were achieved, with ICC > 0.75 and r > 0.9 for total and anterior proportion. It was observed in the evaluation of error of the digital method that some teeth showed a significant systematic error, being the highest measured at 0.08 mm. The analysis of total tooth mass discrepancy performed by Bolton Freeware, for those cases in which the curve of Spee is mild and moderate, differ from manual analysis, on average, 0.09 mm and 0.07 mm respectively, for each tooth evaluated, with r> 0, 8 for total and anterior proportion. According to the specificity and sensitivity test, Bolton Freeware has an improved ability to detect true negatives, i.e. the presence of discrepancy. The Bolton analysis digitally performed was faster, with an average difference of time consumed to perform the analysis of Bolton between the two methods of approximately 6 minutes. Most experts interviewed (93%) approved the usability of the software

Dados recentes mostram que os processos de destruição da floresta e formação de fragmentos estão avançando muito rapidamente na Amazônia brasileira. Definir como esses processos afetam a fauna nas diferentes fito fisionomias amazônicas é fundamental para que se possam planejar políticas visando avaliar a vulnerabilidade relativa de diferentes grupos biológicos a esse processo assim estimar o valor de áreas fragmentadas para a conservação. Os invertebrados podem ser usados como bons indicadores para esse objetivo, pois são grupos com grande capacidade adaptativa e de dispersão, dependendo diretamente do ambiente para sua sobrevivência. A utilização de aranhas para avaliar o efeito da fragmentação florestal é recente e ainda pouco explorada, apesar das aranhas serem um grupo megadiverso e com sua biologia diretamente relacionada com a composição e estrutura do ambiente em que vivem. Destarte este trabalho objetivou avaliar os efeitos do tamanho da área florestada, do grau de isolamento e da distância das estradas sobre as comunidades de aranhas em 15 ilhas de floresta, isoladas por matriz de savana e seis áreas de mata contínua no distrito de Alter do Chão, no município de Santarém, no oeste do estado do Pará. As amostragens envolveram um esforço de 252 horas, utilizando-se guarda-chuva entomológico e coleta manual noturna, ambas com controle de tempo e área, sendo a unidade amostral representada pela soma dos resultados obtidos por três coletores em cada área, em transectos de 250m. O protocolo resultou na captura de 7751 aranhas sendo 5477 imaturos e 2274 adultos. Após a identificação do material araneológico obteve-se uma lista com 306 espécies distribuídas em 32 famílias. Os padrões da comunidade de aranhas, analisados através de um MDS (Multidimensional Scaling ou escalonamento multidimensional) utilizando a distância de Bray-Curtis mostraram separação entre as áreas de mata contínua e ilhas de floresta. A análise da resposta à primeira dimensão da ordenação foi feita para as espécies com mais de 10 indivíduos na amostra e uma ordenação direta foi feita com as características das áreas (distância das ilhas de floresta para a floresta contínua, o tamanho e o índice de forma das ilhas de floresta). Uma análise GLM, utilizada para avaliar os efeitos da degradação ambiental, indicou diferenças significativas para o número de árvores por área florestada e para a distância das estradas: a fragmentação florestal sobre a comunidade de aranhas foi significativa apenas para o tamanho das ilhas em relação ao eixo 1 do MDS. A análise de variância (anova), que foi utilizada para se achar as médias das riquezas que foram maiores nas matas contínuas, diferindo do resultado das curvas de rarefação, que apontaram uma riqueza levemente maior nas ilhas de florest. O padrão de hierarquia da comunidade de aranhas foi achado no programa Nestedness Temperature Calculator Program - Nestcalc (Atmar; Patterson, 1995).

Children with cerebral palsy due to movement and posture disorders might have an injured nutritional state. This study's objective was to classify the body mass index of children with cerebral palsy and verify its relation with the injury level of gross motor function. Twenty children, male and female sex, with cerebral palsy with ages between 2 and 14 years participated in the study. They were chosen from a rehabilitation center with physiotherapy, occupational and speech therapy accompaniment. Children were classified according to the gross motor function classification scale. The anthropometric measures of each child weight, heel-knee length, estimated stature and body mass index were gauged. The body mass index was classified according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's body mass index percentile calculator for children and teenagers. The obtained data didn't show any relation between the gross motor function and body mass index. The reduced number of participants and the fact of all children be accompanied in dysphagia clinics and, when necessary, nutrition clinics, might have influenced these results.

The objective of this work is to analyze teaching situations with the use of calculator inside classroom aiming to understand its function and potential to the learning of Mathematics. A survey was carried out about the students and teachers’ conceptions concerning the use of calculator as an auxiliary tool in the learning of Math . The first part of the research is based by means of official documents (Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN) , Proposta Curricular do Estado de São Paulo, Guia do Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD)) , researches and other publications , characterizing by a bibliographic study. The survey with the participants— Math students and teachers acting in public or private schools of São Paulo state— was done through a questionnaire and interviews . The results show that most part of interviewed people are in favor of the use of calculator in the classroom . However , a big part of this number still consider it only as a tool to speed calculations with high numbers or decimals . It was verified that teachers who have recently graduated and have taught for a short period of time accept and comprehend the role of calculator more easily in some activities and consider it as an useful and auxiliary tool to the students’ learning

In this action research study of my classroom of eighth grade mathematics, I investigated the use of calculators. Specifically, I wanted to know the answer to three questions. I wanted to know more about what would happen to my students’ ability to recall basic math facts, their ability to communicate mathematically during problem solving, and their attitude when my students were or were not permitted to use their calculator. I discovered that in my research, I did not find enough evidence to either support or reject my initial hypotheses, that calculators largely influenced my students’ behavior, and also that my students’ ability to recall basic math facts would change when using a calculator. As a result of this research, I plan to continue my research within my classroom. I plan to further investigate the use of calculators within my classroom.
