CAMPOS SALLES E O POSITIVISMO UM ESTUDO SOBRE A COMUNICAÇÃO POLÍTICA DO SEGUNDO PRESIDENTE CIVIL BRASILEIRO

Campos Salles foi um político de grande importância para o Brasil, destacando-se como um dos personagens mais ativos do movimento republicano. Iniciou sua carreira política aos 26 anos, sendo eleito Deputado Provincial. Em 1898, com 57 anos, assumiu o mais alto cargo político da Nação. Esta pesquisa pretende analisar as estratégias de comunicação política por ele adotadas até chegar à Presidência da República, procurando comprovar a influência do positivismo em sua trajetória.

FATORES DE RISCO E DE PROTEÇÃO À SAÚDE E A VIDA EM ADOLESCENTES DEFICIENTES VISUAIS

A condição da deficiência é observada ao longo da história da humanidade. Informações, da Organização Mundial da Saúde e do Brasil, mostram a existência no país de 3,6 milhões de pessoas com deficiências visuais, sendo 900 mil cegos e 2,7 milhões de pessoas com baixa visão. A evolução da deficiência visual está relacionada às questões, como o crescimento populacional, dificuldades econômicas, aumento da expectativa de vida, escassez de serviços especializados e falhas na prevenção. Os participantes, deste estudo, foram adolescentes com deficiência visual, possuidores de baixa visão. Foram investigados os fatores de risco e de proteção a saúde e a vida e a avaliação da qualidade de vida. O método de investigação é exploratório e descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa, uma obtida com a aplicação de uma escala de autopreenchimento, que aborda a percepção dos sujeitos sobre a qualidade de vida e a outra, a partir de entrevistas individuais. As análises dos dados obtidos apresentam, que a Qualidade de Vida é percebida e avaliada por eles, positivamente, pois, não existem indicadores negativos nesta questão. Os domínios com maior predominância foram o físico e o psicológico, em que se sobressaiu em comparação aos domínios das relações sociais e meio ambiente. Em relação aos riscos, observamos que existe maior vulnerabilidade em relação à locomoção em espaço público, o nível de deficiência, a superproteção materna e familiar, a dificuldade no processo de ensino aprendizagem, isolamento, fazer escolhas, bebidas alcoólicas e sexualidade. Relatam que lidam com esses riscos por meio da estimulação dos demaissentidos, pelo uso e estimulação da visão residual, boa, meio de uma boa saúde, integração grupal, utilização dos discursos disponíveis, como tecnologia e Braille e por meio da religiosidade. Revelam que a proteção ocorre a partir da auto-estima, do suporte social, por meio de amigos e familiares, pelos professores e um processo de ensino/aprendizagem adequado a esta condição, além do lazer. As expectativas para o futuro envolvem trabalho e estudo, além de questões de desenvolvimento pessoal, profissional e social. Os adolescentes, com deficiência visual, pesquisados, buscam mais autonomia e oportunidades para atravessar os desafios desta complexa etapa do ciclo vital da mesma forma que os demais adolescentes

A animação no contexto expositivo das artes visuais

O presente relatório contempla a investigação em torno da Animação como integrante das Artes Plásticas e do seu local de exibição, enfatizando a relação do espectador com a obra através do espaço e das condições que este proporciona, bem como a metodologia para o desenvolvimento da curta-metragem de animação, “Antagonisma”, e do projecto homónimo que engloba quatro loops animados para serem exibidos num espaço galeria. A investigação, aqui apresentada, contribuiu para o desenvolvimento prático do projecto, relacionando constantemente referências da mesma com as características dos filmes animados, das quais, questões conceptuais em torno do tema narrativo e diferenças formais influenciadas pelo espaço de destino, na tentativa de compreender os motivos pelos quais obras de artes plásticas se inserem muito raramente no circuito artístico, e se espaço pode ser sinónimo de legitimação.

Investigando o uso do sentido háptico na visualização de dados multivariados em gráficos de dispersão bidimensionais

Data Visualization is widely used to facilitate the comprehension of information and find relationships between data. One of the most widely used techniques for multivariate data (4 or more variables) visualization is the 2D scatterplot. This technique associates each data item to a visual mark in the following way: two variables are mapped to Cartesian coordinates so that a visual mark can be placed on the Cartesian plane; the others variables are mapped gradually to visual properties of the mark, such as size, color, shape, among others. As the number of variables to be visualized increases, the amount of visual properties associated to the mark increases as well. As a result, the complexity of the final visualization is higher. However, increasing the complexity of the visualization does not necessarily implies a better visualization and, sometimes, it provides an inverse situation, producing a visually polluted and confusing visualization—this problem is called visual properties overload. This work aims to investigate whether it is possible to work around the overload of the visual channel and improve insight about multivariate data visualized through a modification in the 2D scatterplot technique. In this modification, we map the variables from data items to multisensoriy marks. These marks are composed not only by visual properties, but haptic properties, such as vibration, viscosity and elastic resistance, as well. We believed that this approach could ease the insight process, through the transposition of properties from the visual channel to the haptic channel. The hypothesis was verified through experiments, in which we have analyzed (a) the accuracy of the answers; (b) response time; and (c) the grade of personal satisfaction with the proposed approach. However, the hypothesis was not validated. The results suggest that there is an equivalence between the investigated visual and haptic properties in all analyzed aspects, though in strictly numeric terms the multisensory visualization achieved better results in response time and personal satisfaction.

Ecologia de comunidades e comportamento reprodutivo de anfíbios anuros em savana amazônica

The Amazon savannas occur as isolated patches throughout extensive areas of forest in the states of Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, and Roraima. There is a considerable variation in the composition of anuran assemblages in the localities and phytophysiognomies of Amazon savannas and given the absence of studies on reproductive behavior, a systematic and geographically wide sampling has been carried out in the Amapá savanna, located in the Eastern Amazon. The study was conducted in a savanna area in the state of Amapá to examine the composition, ecology, and reproductive behavior of anuran amphibians. We carried out 24 field trips in each phytophysiognomy (gramineous-woody savana, gramineous-herbaceous-woody savana, park savana, and arboreal savanna); for analysis of reproductive behavior observations were made during the period January to December 2013, lasting four consecutive days. Samples were collected by active and acoustic search along 20 plots of 100x50 meters. Twenty-one anuran species were recorded, of which four are new records for the state of Amapá: Dendropsophus walfordi, Scinax fuscomarginatus, Pseudopaludicola boliviana e Elachistocleis helianneae. The KruskalWallis ANOVA revealed significant differences between richness and species diversity in the phytophysiognomies (p < 0.05). The Bray-Curtis similarity coefficient divided the phytophysiognomies into three groups: arboreal savana, gramineous-woody savanna and gramineous-herbaceous-woody savanna, and park savanna. According to the non-metric multidimensional scaling, the structure of the anuran community resulted in a separation into three phytophysiognomies, with significant differences in the structure of communities (ANOSIM, R = 0.823; p < 0.001). In the study of community ecology, the results obtained for spatial, temporal, and trophic niche breadth suggest that the assemblage of anurans of the Amapá savanna is not composed of predominantly generalist species. Also, the presence of other specialist anurans may explain the processes of speciation associated with the isolation of habitats, resulting in heterogeneity and spatial discontinuity in the phytophysiognomies with open formations. The null model analysis revealed that the community is structured based on temporal and trophic niche, indicating a significant influence of contemporary ecological factors on the assemblage. The absence of structure based on spatial niche might be explained by the spatial segregation in the distribution and occupation of anurans in the different phytophysiognomies of the Amapá savanna. Regarding the reproductive behavior of anurans, 11 species were classified as having a long breeding season, intrinsically associated with the rainy season and the reproductive mode of most species that lay egg clutches in lentic water bodies. Six reproductive modes were recorded and parental care was observed in Leptodactylus macrosternum and L. podicipinus, whose reproductive mode is characterized by foam nests. Regarding behavioral reproductive strategies, calling males were observed in all species of anurans, satellite males were recorded only for D. walfordi, Hypsiboas multifasciatus, S. nebulosus and S. fuscomarginatus; active search for females was observed for Phyllomedusa hypochondrialis and L. fuscus, and male displacement was recorded only for Rhinella major and R. margaritifera. Of the reproductive behaviors observed, throat and vocal sac display is associated with courtship and territorial behavior exhibited by males. In addition to courtship behavior, visual signals associated with courtship strategies were recorded for the anurans of the Amapá savanna.

Pistas visuais no reconhecimento intra e interespecífico em duas borboletas miméticas impalatáveis

Duas espécies de borboletas miméticas Heliconius erato e Heliconius melpomene apresentam coloração similar. Tal similaridade pode atuar confundindo o reconhecimento de seus co-específicos no momento da escolha de parceiros sexuais. As duas espécies possuem um conjunto de variações sutis na cor de suas asas que são compartilhadas por ambas espécies, como os pontos vermelhos encontrados acima da faixa amarela. Em H. erato variações na cor de suas asas são exclusivas da espécie como os red raylets e pontos amarelos na região distal da asa posterior. Acredita-se que tais variações fenotípicas auxiliem no reconhecimento de seus co-específicos, para tanto, o presente estudo tem por intuito verificar se as duas espécies envolvidas na análise reconhecem seus co-específicos. Experimentos com modelos que contemplaram variações sutis foram montados e apresentados aos machos de H. erato e H. melpomene. Em cada experimento foi verificado a probabilidade relativa de aproximação do macho ao modelo. O teste de likelihood indicou que as diferenças sutis encontradas nos padrões de asas de H. erato e H. melpomene podem atuar como pistas de reconhecimento de indivíduos da mesma espécie. Sendo que a espécie H. erato pode ser considerada um discriminador mais refinado no reconhecimento, e ambas as espécies selecionaram modelos que possuem variações médias, indicando seleção normalizadora para a escolha do padrão de asa. Podemos concluir, que a cor e, principalmente, os padrões sutis na variação da cor são utilizados como um sinal usado por borboletas no reconhecimento de seus co-específicos.

Desenho de deficiência visual: uma experiência no ensino de artes visuais na perspectiva da educação inclusiva

Over the past 30 years, Art Education in interface with disabilities has been a subject of increasing interest in research in academia, especially with regard to Special Education, but still has some shortages in terms of socialization studies to discuss this type of teaching from the perspective of inclusive education. In this scenario, this paper presents an analysis from the field of teaching Visual Arts in the context of school inclusion, with emphasis on teaching drawing to the visually impaired. The conducted literature indicates a number of authors who discuss teaching drawing to people with visual disabilities, who are dedicated primarily to the Special Education context. In this sense, the shortage of research that discuss this teaching from the perspective of inclusive education, this research aimed at the inclusive approach to teaching drawing in the school context. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop a proposal for a pedagogical intervention in Visual Arts, with reference to drawing and its construction process, with the participation of seeing and unseeing students. Therefore, the methodological approach, which was qualitative, was the intervention research, in the light of the Bakhtinian principles of dialogism and otherness, with exploratory study characteristics. The locus of the research was the State School Admiral Newton Braga Faria, which is located in Alecrim, on the East Zone of Natal / RN and is near the Institute for Education and Rehabilitation of the Blind - IERC / RN. The class chosen for intervention was the 7th grade “C” afternoon shift, which had children aged 12 to 16, with 27 students enrolled, three students with disabilities: 02 blind girls and 01 deafblind boy with light hearing and visual loss. As interlocutors of the research, we could also count on the Art teacher who served as a collaborator, as well as teacher in the school’s Multifunction Resource Room. The instruments and research procedures were observation, semi-structured interview, field diary and the photo / video recording. In the development of research, we conducted 10 workshops with multisensory teaching sequences, articulating the physical, tactile and graphical expressions as intrinsic to the reading and production of drawing for both seeing and unseeing students. The process and data built on research allowed for a reflection on cultural experiences with drawing in the school context and on the interactions between seeing and unseeing students in the production and analysis of tactile-visual drawings. They also point out the construction of a teaching approach to drawing, in the context of the common class, from educational workshops that enable artistic and aesthetic interactions from the perspective of school inclusiveness. Thus, we argued that the mobilization of the tactile, physical and graphical expressions can be adopted in a multisensory approach that enables a pedagogical focus that involves all students and is not restricted to the presence of students with visual impairment.

Sistemas de cálculo, análise e operação virtual: interferências de campos elétricos e magnéticos produzidas por estações radio base de acesso múltiplo por divisão de código em banda larga - WCDMA

In this work it was developed mathematical resolutions taking as parameter maximum intensity values for the interference analysis of electric and magnetic fields and was given two virtual computer system that supports families of CDMA and WCDMA technologies. The first family were developed computational resources to solve electric and magnetic field calculations and power densities in Radio Base stations , with the use of CDMA technology in the 800 MHz band , taking into account the permissible values referenced by the Commission International Protection on non-Ionizing Radiation . The first family is divided into two segments of calculation carried out in virtual operation. In the first segment to compute the interference field radiated by the base station with input information such as radio channel power; Gain antenna; Radio channel number; Operating frequency; Losses in the cable; Attenuation of direction; Minimum Distance; Reflections. Said computing system allows to quickly and without the need of implementing instruments for measurements, meet the following calculated values: Effective Radiated Power; Sector Power Density; Electric field in the sector; Magnetic field in the sector; Magnetic flux density; point of maximum permissible exposure of electric field and power density. The results are shown in charts for clarity of view of power density in the industry, as well as the coverage area definition. The computer module also includes folders specifications antennas, cables and towers used in cellular telephony, the following manufacturers: RFS World, Andrew, Karthein and BRASILSAT. Many are presented "links" network access "Internet" to supplement the cable specifications, antennas, etc. . In the second segment of the first family work with more variables , seeking to perform calculations quickly and safely assisting in obtaining results of radio signal loss produced by ERB . This module displays screens representing propagation systems denominated "A" and "B". By propagating "A" are obtained radio signal attenuation calculations in areas of urban models , dense urban , suburban , and rural open . In reflection calculations are present the reflection coefficients , the standing wave ratio , return loss , the reflected power ratio , as well as the loss of the signal by mismatch impedance. With the spread " B" seek radio signal losses in the survey line and not targeted , the effective area , the power density , the received power , the coverage radius , the conversion levels and the gain conversion systems radiant . The second family of virtual computing system consists of 7 modules of which 5 are geared towards the design of WCDMA and 2 technology for calculation of telephone traffic serving CDMA and WCDMA . It includes a portfolio of radiant systems used on the site. In the virtual operation of the module 1 is compute-: distance frequency reuse, channel capacity with noise and without noise, Doppler frequency, modulation rate and channel efficiency; Module 2 includes computes the cell area, thermal noise, noise power (dB), noise figure, signal to noise ratio, bit of power (dBm); with the module 3 reaches the calculation: breakpoint, processing gain (dB) loss in the space of BTS, noise power (w), chip period and frequency reuse factor. Module 4 scales effective radiated power, sectorization gain, voice activity and load effect. The module 5 performs the calculation processing gain (Hz / bps) bit time, bit energy (Ws). Module 6 deals with the telephone traffic and scales 1: traffic volume, occupancy intensity, average time of occupancy, traffic intensity, calls completed, congestion. Module 7 deals with two telephone traffic and allows calculating call completion and not completed in HMM. Tests were performed on the mobile network performance field for the calculation of data relating to: CINP , CPI , RSRP , RSRQ , EARFCN , Drop Call , Block Call , Pilot , Data Bler , RSCP , Short Call, Long Call and Data Call ; ECIO - Short Call and Long Call , Data Call Troughput . As survey were conducted surveys of electric and magnetic field in an ERB , trying to observe the degree of exposure to non-ionizing radiation they are exposed to the general public and occupational element. The results were compared to permissible values for health endorsed by the ICNIRP and the CENELEC .

Intervenção mediacional na aprendizagem do braille: um estudo com crianças deficientes visuais

This study aimed to construct and evaluate a proposed mediational intervention with preschool children through reading workshops and writing in Braille system. The proposal is based on the concepts of Vygotsky on defectology and approach to the Mediated Learning Experience (MLE) developed by Feuerstein. For the research were drawn up ten Mediational workshops, in which they developed a work by reading a children's story and from her reading activities and writing in Braille system. The workshops took place within in kindergarten room of the institution. Study participants were four blind children, six and seven years in an institution that assists visually impaired people in the city of Uberaba / MG, and their mothers and the teacher responsible for the room in which they study. During the workshops, the children showed interest in participating in the activities of reading and writing in Braille. We believe that the data built during the research are not sufficient to establish a generalization, due to the small number of participants. However, at the end of the workshops and the assessment of participants' responses can infer the relevance of the proposal, because in addition to the interest shown and the request of the children there were more activities like that, it was noticed greater fluency in reading and greater ease in writing.

Das saudades que se tem: a representação paterna na escrita autobiográfica de Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós

In our work, we analyze some works of Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós that compose the “autobiographical cycle”, especially those ones that bring the image of father’s absence/presence, the relationship between life and writing, as well as the father’s figurations and his intermediates and substitutes. We especially investigated the aspect of repetition about how the family relations are articulated, highlighting those ones that happen between father and son and that appear in these texts. This problematic interested us as a research object, a priori, because the works of Bartholomeu Campos de Queirós are an exponent of literature for children field, as far as they show that the childhood is not always “colorful”, happy and perfect as several productions supposedly made “for children” seek to have us believe. In addition, the selected texts that have an autobiographical characteristic and put the issue of child suffering because of the father’s absence are configured as a very rich corpus for studies related to the relation between life/work and investigations in the dialogue between Literature and Psychoanalysis. These aspects will permit us to understand why the pain of missing father be repetitive and insistent in these books. Thus, we problematize, by the selected works for this study, the concept of literature for children and young people and the notion of literary reading. We also analyzed in the “statements” given by the author the relationship between life and writing and we investigated, based on psychoanalytic studies, the literary writing as a possibility of both unconscious development of memory marked by the father’s absence – remedy – as of a perpetuation of this same conflict – poison. Furthermore, we analyzed how the relationship between son and father are processed considering the mother’s absence, since the works that have this person’s presence, she seems to mediate such relationships in a certain way.

Fondements épistémologiques et préceptes esthétiques de la théorie de la traduction d’Haroldo de Campos : l’apport de Max Bense

Dix années après le décès d’Haroldo de Campos, il n’existe pas encore à ce jour d’études exhaustives sur la théorie de la traduction du poète, critique et traducteur littéraire brésilien. Dans la présente thèse, nous examinons de manière critique une affirmation d’Haroldo de Campos à l’effet qu’il aurait été influencé par le philosophe allemand Max Bense. Nous tentons de retracer dans les textes publiés d’Haroldo de Campos quand et comment ce dernier a été initié aux thèses du concepteur de l’esthétique de l’information. Pour parvenir à évaluer la nature et la valeur de cette influence nous avons passé en revue l’ensemble des textes, c’est-à-dire des monographies, des essais, des articles de journaux ou tout autre type de source de référence, afin de questionner la pertinence de l’affirmation d’Haroldo de Campos. Diverses hypothèses sont examinées, à partir de la visite de Décio Pignatari à Ulm, jusqu’à l’analyse d’une allocution d’Elisabeth Walther-Bense sur le rapport qui existait entre Haroldo de Campos et son feu mari, Max Bense. Au terme de notre investigation, nous devons constater que les textes théoriques d’Haroldo de Campos sont insuffisants en soi pour que l’on puisse expliquer comment s’est opérée et articulé le rapport entre ces deux ténors de la poésie concrète.

Propriocepção de deficientes visuais : Treinamento funcional como possibilidade interventiva

A deficiência visual (DV) é uma limitaçao sensorial que pode comprometer o desenvolvimento motor, afetivo, social e cognitivo do ser humano. No mundo esta limitaçao acomete 39 milhoes de pessoas. No Brasil, existem aproximadamente 6,5 milhoes de DV. O treinamento funcional trabalha de forma integrada, por meio de movimentos multiarticulares e multiplanares que envolvem o sistema proprioceptivo, estando relacionado com a sensaçao de movimento (sinestesia) e posiçao articular. Desta forma, o objetivo desse estudo foi analisar os efeitos do treinamento funcional na propriocepçao de deficientes visuais. O programa de treinamento teve duraçao de 12 semanas, com sessoes bi-semanais das quais participaram oito indivíduos, cinco com baixa visao e três com cegueira total. A avaliaçao da propriocepçao de membros superiores foi realizada com um cinesiômetro, e a avaliaçao de membros inferiores foi realizada com a fixaçao de um flexímetro na articulaçao do joelho do membro dominante do participante. Os resultados evidenciaram melhoras discretas para dois ângulos de membros superiores, porém nos membros inferiores a margem de erro foi bem inferior que nos membros superiores

Presupuestos y gastos del estado en la provincia de Buenos Aires para afrontar las inundaciones de los campos, 1870-1930

Nos proponemos estudiar la participación de la agencia estatal encargada de la gestión de las obras hídricas en el presupuesto de la provincia de Buenos Aires, puesto que indica la importancia que los gobiernos le dieron al problema de las inundaciones en los campos, y ponderar el aporte privado toda vez que se compelía a los propietarios a pagar un impuesto especial. Nuestro período se extiende desde los primeros esfuerzos realizados por los gobiernos provinciales en la década de 1870, hasta 1930 en que empezó un ciclo más seco y los problemas en los métodos de desagüe se postergaron. Enfocaremos el análisis a través de los registros oficiales, los debates en las cámaras de la Legislatura provincial y los mensajes de los gobernadores. Vamos a ponderar la importancia del Ministerio de Obras Públicas entre los diferentes rubros aprobados por la legislatura, seguidamente analizaremos con mayor detalle las transformaciones en la agencia dedicada a las cuestiones hídricas y la, todavía escasa, información sobre los gastos especiales en obras de desagüe
