Possibilidades e limitações da prática do professor na experiência com a temática energia e desenvolvimento humano no ensino de ciências

Reflections on the Movement STSE, in basic education, have pointed to the introduction of discussions involving the socio-scientific issues, as a way of organization and development of forming processes in science classes. In this sense, the research that we developed sought to bring to physics classes of basic education, the discussions surrounding the relationship between science, technology, society and environment issues related to production and access to electricity and human development. In order to interpret formative aspects of this approach was achieved through a short course. Thus, we discuss in this paper, the discourse of students and a professor of physics who participated in this short course. Therefore, we seek in discourse analysis, reflection on this practice, which has limitations such as lack of recognition of this type of training status by the students as well as possibilities represented by the establishment of training spaces that contribute to the discussion of socio-scientific issues.

Histórias em quadrinhos como recurso didático para o ensino do corpo humano em anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental

Teaching resources involve different elements used to support the organization of teaching and learning. Among these are the comic books, involving visual aspects, both cognitive and creative, that provide an alternative way to complement the lectures. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a comic book entitled “Human Body”, focusing on the circulatory, digestive, nervous and respiratory systems, to provide an alternative resource for the teaching of the content in the initial years. The material was evaluated with students of the 5th year of elementary education at a public school in the state of São Paulo, through the use of questionnaires. The comic book proved to be valid as a complementary teaching resource for learning in students, enabling reflection on the relevance of the development and use of comics to science education in the initial years.

A Aplicação de um modelo matemático na resolução de um problema de carregamento de paletes

Global competitiveness has been increased significantly in the last decade and, as consequence, companies are always looking for developing better processes in supply chain operations in order to maintain their competitive costs and keep themselves in the business. Logistics operations represent a large part of the product's final cost. Transportation can represent more than fifty percent of final cost sometimes. The solutions for cutting and packing problems consist in simple and low investment actions, as enhancing the arrangement of the transported load in order to decrease both material and room wastes. As per the presented reasons, the objective of this paper is to show and analyze a real application of a mathematical model to solve a manufacturer pallet-loading problem, comparing results from the model execution and the solution proposed by the company studied. This study will not only find the best arrangement to load pallets (which will optimize storage and transportation process), but also to check the effectiveness of existing modeling in the literature. For this study a computational package was used, which consists of a modeling language GAMS with the CPLEX optimization solver and two other existing software in the market, all of them indicating that an accurate mathematical model for solving this kind of problem in a two-dimensional approach is difficult to be found, in addition to a long execution time. However, the study and the software utilization indicate that the problem would be easily solved by heuristics in a shorter execution time

Efeitos de regras com diferentes extensões sobre o comportamento humano

Para investigar se a extensão de uma regra interfere no seguir regras, dezesseis estudantes universitários foram expostos a um procedimento de escolha segundo o modelo. Em cada tentativa, um estímulo modelo e três de comparação eram apresentados ao participante, que deveria apontar para os estímulos de comparação em seqüência. As seqüências corretas eram reforçadas. Cada condição era constituída de três sessões de trinta tentativas. As Sessões 1, 2 e 3 eram iniciadas por: Instruções mínimas na Condição I; Regras R1, R2 e R1, respectivamente, na Condição II; R2, R1 e R2, respectivamente, na Condição III, e R3, R1 e R3, respectivamente, na Condição IV. R3 era mais extensa que R2 e R2 mais extensa que R1. Os resultados mostraram que R1 e R2 foram sempre seguidas. R3 foi seguida apenas na terceira sessão da Condição IV. Sugere-se que a extensão e a complexidade de uma regra pode interferir no seguir regras.
