This study aims to build a tool for evaluating energy efficiency and insert it in disciplines of Civil Engineering courses. The instrument was constructed by applying the criteria for certification of sustainable construction in Brazil: High Environmental Quality, Energy Efficiency Labeling of buildings and Seal Blue House CASH. An investigation of the status in the Civil Engineering courses was performed based on information gathered from, either syllabuses, or programmatic content of the disciplines. This investigation included the curriculum established by the Resolution CNE/CES N. 11, which points out the National Curriculum Guidelines of an undergraduate degree in engineering. The higher education institutions were selected based on courses in Civil Engineering, which were evaluated in 2008 by the National Survey of Student Performance. In addition, in the process of selecting courses, only the courses with pedagogical project or curriculum which shows at the webpage the notes or syllabus of the courses was considered. Following these criteria, 15 courses of Civil Engineering were selected. The results show that it is difficult to separate the content of the subjects according to the core content. This situation may be the reason for the average workload of the core of basic and professional contents in both biannual and annual periodicities courses be larger than the requirements of the Guidelines National Curriculum. On the other hand, for the specific content core, it was observed the opposite in both periodicities. In this case there was difficulty in separating the content according to the core content. In addition, the courses of Civil Engineering still do not use the possibility of curricular flexibility allowed by these Guidelines. The reduced number of disciplines that include energy efficiency indicated that the educational institutions are not taking advantage of the possibility of introducing new up to date and important topics in the engineer formation, such as energy efficiency.
Percursos juvenis e trajetórias escolares : vidas que se tecem nas periferias das cidades
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2011-12-20) Silva, Carla Regina; Lopes, Roseli Esquerdo; https://lattes.cnpq.br/1507752191797249; https://lattes.cnpq.br/6417501858864106
In Brazil, the youth, besides the historic numerical relevance in the drawing of population, has become an important social category, that brings specific demands, wherein education and work are central themes. Recently, we are watching the settlement of an institutional framework, specific for youth, but, in what is intended in terms of social rights, has not yet become effective. Thus, the most part of the Brazilian youth, in other words, the poor youth or from popular groups, is the group that presents the highest vulnerability, represented by a major quantitative and qualitative educational gap and lack of integration with real world (related to jobs). This study has addressed this issue in order to correlate and understand the macrossocial interactions in what could be called microssocial - life path and school career of four poor young students, who live in suburbs of a medium-sized city in the countryside of São Paulo state. Research has made use of methodological procedures based on a combination of strategies, including, monitoring either, individual and collectives in the territory - articulation of resources in social field, dynamization of the attention network and workshops of activities, projects and dynamics and, speccialy, apprehension of research territory. Those strategies were formulated on the basis of social occupational therapy and education in a Freire perspective, also supported by the participant objectification proposed by Pierre Bourdieu. The socio-historical approach, chosen in this work, supported the research and contributed to analysis the relations among the public policies aimed at youth, mainly, the educational policies and how them are reflected in the paths of life of those youngsters. Consequently, as we have policies according capitalist system of production and contemporary neo-liberal doctrine, we got little efficiency strategies, such as expanding access to secondary and superior degrees, the expansion of superior degree and its alternative forms the inclusion of vulnerable groups, that resulted vulnerable, because their inability to meet the demands of individuals of the poor youth. In the same way, the family, society and others institutions also came to be insufficient or inadequate to supports the leverage the life‟s projects presented by the individuals of the research. These youngsters, though, immersed in difficulties, limitations, and precariousness, projected possibilities, until now, show that failures shoot down upon specific paths, highlighting the need for a broader network of protection and support, capable of transforming life, where in education has a fundamental role.
