Un model antropològic i la seva transferència a l'educació actual : el cas d'algunes nacions indígenes del Brasil. 'Un modelo antropológico y su transferencia a la educación actual : el caso de algunas naciones indígenas del Brasil'.

Se describe y analiza el comportamiento antropológico de algunas naciones indígenas de Brasil como punto de partida para realizar inferencias sobre los procesos educativos y su vinculación con el ámbito sociocultural y antropológico. El análisis de los elementos culturales de estas colectividades se plantea como un necesario punto de partida para la correcta valoración de sus comportamientos educativos. El trabajo repasa los principales comportamientos antropológicos de estas sociedades: la vida cotidiana, los acontecimientos significativos, las raices culturales, la identidad y se realizan paralelismos con otros modelos pedagógicos actuales. Se concluye afirmando que el subsistema educativo está completamente integrado en el sistema cultural del pueblo y no se encuentra separado de las tareas cotidianas del niño. Los aspectos más significativos por su transferencia al campo educativo son el valor de grupo, la solidaridad, el respeto por la naturaleza, la importancia de la tradición representada por los mayores del grupo, el equilibrio entre las exigencias sociales y culturales, el respeto por el ritmo de desarrollo del niño, la importancia del juego y la educación para la salud.

The exciplex as an intermediate for photocycloaddition of 9-vinyl anthracene and p-N, N-dimethylamino styrene

The appearence of the new fluorescence peak at about 570 nm demonstrates exciplex formation between the singlet states of 9-vinyl anthracene and p-N, N-dimethylamino stytene. With increasing the polarity of solvents t the red-shift of the emission wavelength occurs and the fluorescence quantum yield of the exciplex decreases. For example t the fluorescence peak is at 550 nm in totuene and at 595 nm in butanone. The fluorescence quatum yields in totuene and in butanone are 0.053 and O respectively. Both the relative yield of the photocycloaddition dimer and the ratio of the relative yields of the trans and cis dimers decrease with increasing the polarity of solvents. For example, the relative yields of the dimer are 1.0 in totuene and 0.04 in butanone respectively. The ratio of the relative yields of traits and cis dimers are 0.54 and 0 in totuene and butanones t respectively. In addition, the exciplex intermediate mechanism was suggested for the photocycloaddition between 9-vinyl anthracene and 9-N, N-dimethylamino styrene.

Análisis de perdurabilidad de las empresas que se acogieron a la ley 550 de 1999

A finales del Siglo XX, Colombia se encontraba en un escenario bastante complicado en relación con la situación del país en años anteriores. Todo esto, debido a que el país se vio afligido por una serie de situaciones adversas: el desempleo, la violencia y catástrofes naturales, fueron una de las muchas cosas que generaron un grave periodo de recesión en el país. Frente a estos desafortunados acontecimientos, y en búsqueda de propiciar y fortalecer la economía del país, el Gobierno decide en su momento, intervenir en la economía local, principalmente en el Sector Privado, con el fin de normalizar la actividad productiva del país en todos los sectores económico. Para esto, el Gobierno en conjunto con la Superintendencia de Sociedades y teniendo en cuenta la devaluación de la moneda, las altas tasas de interés que existían en ese entonces, y, la disminución de la demanda, deciden desarrollar mecanismos de conciliación tanto para los deudores como para los acreedores con el fin de reactivar la economía y mejorar la situación financiera y contable del sector productivo y de servicios, con el fin de superar la crisis en la que se encontraban sumergidos en ese entonces. La ley 550, constituida en el año 1999 y también conocida como la Ley de Insolvencia Económica, otorgo herramientas para la reestructuración de empresas que decidieron acogerse a dicha ley, a un total de 1.323 empresas que se encontraban en proceso de liquidación. Para poder acceder a este proceso de reestructuración, además de cumplir con ciertos requisitos que se mencionaran posteriormente, las empresas que podían acceder a esta ley, debían encontrarse en mora en el pago de 2 o más obligaciones por un periodo mayor a noventa días, o, se debían encontrar envueltas en por lo menos 2 demandas ejecutivas por mora en el pago de cualquier deuda adquirida en nombre de dichas empresas.

9,10-Dimetallatriptycenes of group 14: a structural study

From ortho-phenylenemagnesium (1), 9-phenyl-9-germa-10-silatriptycene (5) was prepared via a simple one pot procedure. The previously prepared 9-methyl-10-phenyl-9,10-digermatriptycene (4) and 5 are the first germanium-containing 9,10-dimetallatriptycenes to be structurally characterised. The availability of these structural data allows a comparative discussion of 9,10-dimetallatriptycenes of Group 14.

Isotopic evidence for the late Brasiliano (500-550 Ma) ore-forming mineralization of the Araes gold deposit, Brazil

The Araes gold deposit, located in eastern Mato Grosso State, central Brazil, is hosted in Neoproterozoic volcanosedimentary rocks of the Paraguay belt, which formed during collision of the Amazonian craton and the Rio Apa block. Ar-40/Ar-39 geochronology and Pb and S isotopic analyses constrain the timing and sources of mineralization. Three biotite flakes from two samples of metavolcanic host rock yield Ar-40/Ar-39 plateau ages between 5941 and 531 Ma, interpreted as cooling ages following regional metamorphism. Clay minerals from a hydrothermal alteration zone yield an Ar-40/Ar-39 integrated age of 503 +/- 3 Ma. Galena grains from ore-bearing veins yield values of Pb-206/(204)pb from 17.952 to 18.383, Pb-207/Pb-204 from 15.156 to 15.811, and Pb-208/Pb-204 from 38.072 to 39.681. Pyrite grains from ore-bearing veins yield values of Pb-206/Pb-204 from 18.037 to 18.202, Pb-207/Pb-204 from 15.744 to 15.901., and Pb-208/(204)pb from 38.338 to 38.800. Pb isotope variations may be explained in terms of mixing a less radiogenic lead component (mu similar to 8.4) from mafic and ultramafic basement host-rocks (Nova Xavantina metavolcanosedimentary rocks) and a more radiogenic lead component (mu similar to 9.2) probably derived from supracrustal rocks (Cuiaba sedimentary groups). Sulfur isotope compositions are homogeneous, with delta S-34 values ranging from -1.1 parts per thousand to 0.9 parts per thousand (galena) and -0.7 parts per thousand to 0.9 parts per thousand (pyrite), suggesting a mantle-derived reservoir for the mineralizing solutions. Based on the Ar, Pb, and S isotope data, we suggest that the precious metals were remobilized from metavolcanic host rocks by hydrothermal solutions during Brasilide-Panafrican regional metamorphism. The Arabs gold deposit probably formed during a late stage of the orogeny, coeval with other mineralization events in the Paraguay Belt.

Surgical complications in 550 consecutive cochlear implantation

Cochlear implantation is a safe and reliable method for auditory restoration in patients with severe to profound hearing loss. Objective: To describe the surgical complications of cochlear implantation. Materials and Methods: Information from 591 consecutive multichannel cochlear implant surgeries were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were followed-up for at least one year. Forty-one patients were excluded because of missing data, follow-up loss or middle fossa approach. Results: Of 550 cochlear implantation analyzed, 341 were performed in children or adolescents, and 209 in adults. The mean hearing loss time was 6.3 +/- 6.7 years for prelingual loss and 12.1 +/- 11.6 years for postlingual. Mean follow-up was 3.9 +/- 2.8 years. Major complications occurred in 8.9% and minor in 7.8%. Problems during electrode insertion (3.8%) were the most frequent major complication followed by flap dehiscence (1.4%). Temporary facial palsy (2.2%), canal-wall lesion (2.2%) and tympanic membrane lesion (1.8%) were the more frequent minor complications. No death occurred. Conclusion: There was a low rate of surgical complications, most of them been successfully managed. These results confirm that cochlear implant is a safe surgery and most surgical complications can be managed with conservative measures or minimal intervention.
