Early career, presented by its complexity, is still in a little explored topic in the world of teacher education. Given the importance of conducting research on the period and the interest in the implementation of actions directed to the initial and continuing training and start teaching, we intend, in this study, know and understand the pedagogical practices of a novice teacher of Physical Education and sources that influence the construction of knowledge in the course of his career. Based on this goal, we reflect on the teacher beginner, the characteristics and implications of this period, initial training in Physical Education, the dimensions of the processes of learning and professional development and teacher knowledge. Similarly, we contextualize Physical Education resuming its historical trajectory to provide visibility and understanding of the constitution of the area, we situate the various trends, we present the construction of the concept of body culture, based our education on a full-length, legislation for Physical Education and studies on the teaching of physical education in the early years of elementary school. Subsidized by qualitative research, we developed a case study with a Physical Education teacher in her fourth year of professional experience in the early years in two schools in the school system of the State Secretary of Education of São Paulo (SSE-SP) in Bauru. We conducted observations, interviews, analyzing documents, we characterize the teacher, contextualize schools and present how the analysis axes were constructed. Based on analyzes of the axes "school subject", "nature of practices: organization, reasoning and evaluation", "teachers dilemmas" and "challenges of physical education in school interventions, relationships and perspectives", consider the participant, not as a beginner teacher, but as a teacher of early career by moving between developing practices successful and some conflicts commonly experienced in the period from entry into teaching, evidence that generally are not defined by the literature on the subject. Such practices are based on a contextualized and interdisciplinary teaching perspective, redefines student learning beyond the procedures. The dialogue with the literature, exchanges with peers, courses and previous experiences reveal the intentionality of the actions of participants and their commitment to the students and the training itself. As a result, their practices relate to the characteristics of a good teacher and an experienced teacher and confirmed the need for public policies to understand the teacher as builder and transmitter of knowledge, to take ownership of this knowledge to propose actions to facilitate training and optimize the process of learning and professional development, helping to ease the hardships of his early career. Also, we intuit that this study may contribute to the early reflections essential to systematize guidelines for public policies for initial and continuing training of physical education teachers who work and who will act in the early years of elementary education in the schools of SSE-SP, and concomitantly promote new dialogues on pedagogical practices of teachers of Physical Education beginners.

The quest for sustainable development is becoming more widespread among government, private organizations and members of civil society, motivated primarily by environmental imbalance and social problems. So the companies conceptualize measure and work toward sustainability and it has become the goal of many of these organizations. This research aimed to analyze how large retail supermarkets companies, that have operation in Brazil, measure their practices aimed at sustainable development. It was carried out during the research, a review of theory and the multiple case studies exploratory; it realized the data collection through public documents (Sustainability reports). First, it’s analyzed 32 reports of 3 retail businesses for several years. It was analyzed as indicators of sustainability are reported by companies in the sector, it was also assessed developments in the application of sustainability reporting in retail and sustainability dimension is prioritized in the reporting of organizational management. It observed a non- regular reporting on sustainability in the periods analyzed, companies report a higher number of indicators related social issues and despite the use of the GRI indicators, the companies had different interpretations about the same indicators. Thus, it identified that companies need to improve their reports and using the external validation (audit) to ensure the transparency and quality of sustainable reporting, enabling the retail supermarket companies to act towards a sustainable management.

In Computer Science, ontologies are used for knowledge representation in a number of applications, aiming to structure and handle domain semantics through models shared by humans and computational systems. Although traditional ontologies model semantic information and support reasoning tasks, they are based on a formalism which is less suitable to express the vagueness inherent in real-world phenomena and human language. To address this issue, many proposals investigate how traditional ontologies can be extended by incorporating concepts from fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic, resulting in fuzzy ontologies. In special, combining the formalism from fuzzy ontologies with fuzzy rule-based reasoning, which has been successfully applied in the context of fuzzy inference systems, can lead to more expressive inferences involving imprecision. In this sense, this doctoral thesis aims at exploring the integration of fuzzy ontology reasoning with fuzzy inference systems, resulting in the definition and the development of two approaches: HyFOM (Hybrid integration of Fuzzy Ontology and Mamdani reasoning) and FT-FIS (Fuzzy Tableau and Fuzzy Inference System). HyFOM is based on a hybrid architecture combining reasoners for ontologies, fuzzy ontologies and fuzzy inference systems, focusing on the interaction among its independent components. FT-FIS defines an interface between a fuzzy tableau-based algorithm and a fuzzy inference system, including the fuzzyRuleReasoning predicate that allows fuzzy rule-based reasoning to be invoked whenever necessary for fuzzy ontology reasoning tasks. The main contribution of HyFOM and FT-FIS comes from their reasoning architectures, which combine flexibility in terms of fuzzy rule semantics with the collaboration between inferences from both types of reasoning. Experiments regarding the recommendation of touristic attractions, based on synthetic data, revealed that HyFOM and FT-FIS provide integrated inferences, in addition to a more expressive approximation of the relation defined by fuzzy rules than the results from the fuzzyDL reasoner. In experiments involving the evaluation of chemical risk in food samples, based on real data, results obtained by HyFOM and FT-FIS are also more precise than fuzzyDL results, in comparison with reference values available in this domain.

Xylanase and feruloyl esterase (FAE) are two enzymes of great importance for plant biomass decomposition. The hemicellulose, one of the biomass constituents, has a great structural variety, so that for its complete deconstruction, several groups of enzymes are required, including mainly xylanases. These enzymes act on the β-1,4 glycosidic bonds between the xylose residues. Xylanase activity can be enhanced in the presence of esterases, such as feruloyl esterase (FAE), since the latter catalyzes the hydrolysis of linkages which make cell wall structure to be more intricated. Such connections are formed mainly by the ferulic acid esterified to sugar residues attached to the carbohydrate main chain. It is noteworthy that the ferulic acid cross-links to hemicellulose, pectin and lignin structures. Both enzymes are of interest in many sectors, for example, during the saccharification for bioethanol production and bleaching stages of pulp and paper industry. Therefore, this study aimed to select and cultivate filamentous fungi from the Amazon rainforest capable of synthesizing FAE and xylanase, and to evaluate the application of these enzymes in the hydrolysis of sugar cane bagasse. Initially, a screening was conducted on agar plates containing ethyl ferulate. Among eleven fungi tested, seven showed a clear halo around the colony, as indicative of FAE production. Then, the fungi were cultivated in liquid nutrient medium supplemented with 1% wheat bran, and, based on productivity values, three strains of Aspergillus oryzae (P21C3, P6B2 and P27C3) were chosen for cultivation in a stirred tank bioreactor. After 24 hours of cultivation of the P21C3 strain in the bioreactor, it was obtained a crude enzyme extract with 74.85 UI.mL-1 and 47.02 UI.L-1 of xylanase and FAE activity, respectively. This extract was used for the hydrolysis of hydrothermal pretreated sugarcane bagasse with supplementation of a commercial cellulolytic enzyme preparation. These hydrolysis reactions resulted in conversions of 51.2% (cellulose to glucose) and 78.1% (hemicellulose to xylose). Furthermore, the addition of the on-site produced enzyme extract increased the glucose release by 35.8% and the xylose release by 53.8%.

The implementation of the mechanized system of the sugar cane has lead a number of direct and indirect benefits to the sugar cane culminating changes in the productive system, among them, changing the infesting flora and the herbicide dynamic. On account of that, this present paper has as goal to study the emergency aspects and the chemical handling of the weeds species. Merremia aegyptia (L.) Urban (Convolvulaceae); Ipomoea purpurea (L.) Roth (Convolvulaceae); Luffa aegyptiaca Miller (Cucurbitaceae); Mucuna aterrima Piper e Tracy (Fabaceae - Leguminosae) e Ricinus communis (L.) (Euphorbiaceae). It was developed two experiments in the greenhouse of Agricultural Science, Universidade Federal de São Carlos, Araras, SP. The first has studied, isolated, the emergency ability of the weeds in designs entirely randomized in factorial scheme 4 x 5, being analyzed in four amount of straw (0,5,10 and 15t ha), five depths of sowing(0, 2, 4, 8 and 10 cm) with for repetition in soil with clayey texture. The emergency percentage of the plants was evaluated until 21 days after the sowing, when the leaf area was also evaluated (cm2), dry mass (g) and height (cm). The second experiment evaluated after emergency controlling of weeds, through the curves of response with amicarbazone herbicide (1400 g ha-1), saflufenacil (50 g ha-1), mesotrione( 120g ha-1) and sulfentrazone(600g ha-1). The herbicides were administered when the weeds presented until the second pair of real leaves, in doses 1,5 D; 1,0 D; 0, 5 D, 0,25 D e o 0,00 D, where D means a commercial dose of product. The evaluations were made after 7, 14 and 21 days the application of the treatments (DAS) and the dry mass after 21. In relation to the emergency ability, the species analyzed presented different responses on account of the sowing depth and the amount of straw placed on the soil surface. For the species of L. aegyptiaca, I. purpurea, R. communis the sowing that was more supercial resulted in a higher percentagem of emercengy of seedlings, regarding the placement of M. atterima seeds to the 0 cm it has resulted in a less number of seedlings. The L. aegyptiaca, M. aterrima e I. purpurea species had presentend less leaf area, height and dry mass at t he moment the seeds were placed in a supercial way (0cm). In relation to the herbicides administration after emergency condition of the weeds, it has verified that the application of amicarbazone provided levels of controlling to 80% in all the doses administered except de R. communist showing to be efficient on weeds handling. The saflunefacil wasn t efficient on L.aegyptiaca controlling and the mesotrione wasn´t efficient on controlling levels to 80% in all the species and doses used. On account of that we can conclude the species analyzed presented adaptation to the harvesting system without previous burning emerging up to 10cm and 15 t ha-1straw on the soil. The response given by the plants has showed changes, in relation to the chemical handling was observed that different levels of susceptibility of weeds regarding to the herbicides administered after emergency, being more efficient amicarbazone and sulfentrazone.

Health-associated infections (HAI) in non-hospital care is a subject still little explored in literature. Among measures that assist in the prevention and control of HAI is the quality of medical instruments processing which aims to avoid the risks from their use. In order to enable the assessment of medical instruments processing in Primary Health Care (PHC), were adapted and validated quality indicators to assess the practice of medical instruments processing for PHC. Assuming this, it was aimed to diagnose the completeness of the medical instruments processing in PHC health services and assess the usability of the instrument available. This is a study with two arms: the) non-experimental, correlational descriptive and b) methodological study. The hypothesis of this study is that there is difference in the medical instruments processing between Basic Health Units (BHU) and Family Health Centres (FHC). Data collection occurred in the city of São Carlos, in ten health services, selected by convenience. Seven health indicators were applied to evaluate the structure, process and result of that practice. This project was approved by Ethics and Research Committee of UFSCar n° 112,528. The results showed that this activity is a secondary practice in health units observed, because the professionals responsible for this activity are scaled to perform other activities concurrently. There are no records in any health service about medical instruments processing and testing for attesting the effectiveness of the process is not part of routine work. The cleaning process indicator was that had lower overall compliance index (18.18% for BHU and 20.00% for FHC), which deserves attention, given the importance of this step for the subsequent steps. Another point that deserves attention is that literature does not bring standardized information regarding the disinfection of medical instruments, which prevented this component was observed, and therefore suggests an aspect to be studied, so that it can assist professionals responsible for this to carry out disinfection safely for use of medical instruments. Regarding the usability of the indicators, the structure are the most achievable, being followed by the process and result. It should be noted that indicators that require sample are influenced directly by these in terms of implementation time. It is understood the need for studies about this topic on PHC, so that they are established strategies aimed at improving these factors contributing to occupational safety and patient.

In this thesis phosphinic ruthenium complexes coordinated to ligands of biological interest: folic acid, 6-mercaptopurine, 2-mercaptopyridine and 8-aminoquinoline, dpqQX, dppz and dpq (dipyridophenazine and derivatives) mainly, were synthesised from the precursor complexes [RuCl2(PPh3)3], [RuCl2(dppb)(PPh3)] and cis- [RuCl2(dppb)(bipy)] and characterized by the usual techniques: 1H, 31P{1H} and 13C{1H}, IR, UV-Vis, molar conductimetry, elemental analysis, cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry, mass spectrometry and X ray diffraction of single crystal when applicable. The synthesized complexes showed values of E1/2 larger than their corresponding precursors, and in the case of complexes with folic acid presented irreversibility in the oxidation of ruthenium. Molar conductance measurements and elemental analysis corroborated the proposed formulae and the study of crystals solved by X ray diffraction confirmed the expected structures. The complexes (series I-III) were evaluated in vitro against MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 breast cancer cell beyond in mouse fibroblast cells. The Ru-FO complexes (series I) has been activity against breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231, suggesting that small structural modifications presented variation in cytotoxic activity. The ruthenium complexes coordinated to dpqQX, dppz and dpq ligands (series II) were very active and selective against breast cancer cells studied. Studies of their Interaction with ct-DNA confirmed the existence of interaction by intercalation mainly of these complexes (series II).

Let M be a closed smooth manifold and T : M ! M be an C1 involution defined on M. It is known that if F is the set of fixed points of T, then it is a finite union of closed submanifolds of M. Given F, a problem in this context is the classification, up to equivariant cobordism, of pairs (M; T) for which the fixed point set is F. In this work we performe the classification, up to equivariant cobordism, of Zk 2 -actions (Mn;Φ) fixing F with F being one of the following: F = KP2n [ KP2m+1; F = KP2n+1 [ KP2m+1 , where KP is the real, complex or quaternionic projective space. We also perform the classification, up to equivariant cobordism, of Z2 2-action whose fixed point set is KdP2n [ K2m+1 e and d < e, where KjP, j = 1; 2; 4 are respectively the real RP, complex CP and quaternionic HP projective spaces. Given that in this case appeared exotic actions, was important that the improvements that we made from the result of Pedro Pergher done in Theorem 3.4.1, which allowed us to obtain such classification.

Due to the importance of using instructional resources in the classroom and of the understanding these are tools to support the teaching, the focus of this research was the creation and evaluation of a didactic game in development of chemical content, involving Periodic Properties. This activity was implemented in E. E. Prof. Marcelo de Mesquita in the city of Ipeúna - SP, with students of two classrooms of Highschool 1st grade. The following step of the research involved: a) the study of Nowadays Chemistry Teaching; b) an investigation of Didactic Resources for Teaching in Brazilian context; c) the teaching of Periodic Properties in Textbooks and Curriculum Proposals of São Paulo State, with the purpose of identify how this content was put to the teachers and also support the development of issues that formed the database of questions used in the game; d) the theoretical study on Didactic Games, to identify what kind of game to develop, and the choice was creating a software. We chose the use of technology in the classroom by creating an electronic game because it presents important instructional possibilities for the Basic Education s teacher. The research was exploratory and its methodology had a qualitative approach to assist in the data collection and its analysis. The instruments for data collection were questionnaires and researcher s observations. The game practice has two parts and one is for diagnostic evaluation. In the diagnostic moment, the students have answered a questionnaire about the Periodic Table and Periodic Properties before the activity and after this played the didactic game itself. Henceforth the students answered another questionnaire about the Periodic Table, its properties and its used resources. By data analysis it was noticed that the game contributed to improve students learning skills, but it s clear that the game is not a self-sufficient tool to teach contents, it must be linked to a sequence of didactic tools, supported by the teacher, considering the pace of pupils' learning and particularity of specific content.

Yttrium-doped barium cerate perovskites are promising electrolyte for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) due to high proton conductivity at intermediate temperature, 400-600°C. However, the proton conductivity is not an intrinsic characteristic but appears after proton insertion on the crystalline structure during heat treatment in rich hydrogen atmosphere. The relationship between proton insertion efficiency and the type of microstructure is still unclear. Another limiting factors in obtaining these perovskites is the high sintering temperature which modifies the stoichiometry generating secondary phases. In this work, the influence of ZnO as sintering aid on the microstructure development and also the influence of microstructure on the protonation process was systematically investigated. Pure and doped with 10% to 20 at% yttrium BaCeO3, with and without ZnO as sintering aid were prepared through oxide mixture, isostatically pressed and sintered at 1300-1600°C temperature range. The sintered samples were characterized by density measurement using Archimedes principle, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equiped with energy-dispersive X-ray detector (EDS) and impedance spectroscopy. The sintered samples microstructures were multiphase and the volumetric relation between the phases was dependent on yttrium content, ZnO addition, and sintering conditions. ZnO acts on the microstructure development through the binary BaO-CeO2 eutectic point but it is only effective as sintering aid in the presence of yttrium. Eutectics microstructures were obtained due the ZnO addition. The protonation efficiency and, in consequence, the electrical conductivity were microstructure dependent. The highest protonic conductivity, 1,44 x 10-2S/cm at 500 °C, was obtaining by 10 at.% yttrium-doped sample with 1.0 wt% of ZnO and sintered at 1600°C-8h.

In evaporative condenser production, galvanized steel has become the most suitable material for piping system production, since it has high corrosion resistance and relative low commercial value. With proper surface treatment, it is possible to make aluminum an efficient alternative for the replacement of galvanized steel on these refrigeration equipment. In this work, thermal spray and organic coating spray were used to cover an aluminum substrate in order to achieve a material condition with better corrosion resistance and better thermal properties. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and open circuit potential were used to evaluate different surface coatings performance. Microstructural characterization of the coatings was made through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and confocal microscope. Electrochemical tests showed that a coating composed of an inner layer of NiCr and external layer of AA1100 aluminum alloy applied by thermal spraying is not effective for the protection of aluminum tubes exposed to an alkaline environment with pH above 10.5, as in evaporative condensers piping system. Yet the coating comprised of a AA1100 aluminum alloy applied by thermal spraying and subsequent application of epoxy resin is a viable alternative for this application.

Mathematics, from the beginning of the schooling process, has occupied important position in the basic training of the citizen, as is present in different activities of our daily life and it is required in almost all selection processes, being so much educational or vocational. Over the past decades, the teaching of Geometry has been neglected in school curricula. An example is the observation that the Geometry is usually work object of the teacher in the classroom only in the last quarter of the year, so when it does not claim lack of time to present it to students, relegating it to oblivion. In addition, many students say that school Mathematics is too theoretical, it has no application in their everyday lives and, consequently, lose interest in studying it and learn it. The research reported here aimed to investigate a strategy didactic and methodological basis for the teaching-learning part of Euclidean Geometry students of 2nd year of high school, a public school in a city in the state of São Paulo. Specifically, the main objective of this research was the development of educational material that exploits mainly the geometric concepts of area, perimeter and scales present in the planning and definition of plant and model of a house from the informal knowledge of the non-professional area, such as masons, carpenters and workmen. Through a sequence of learning activities, originating from problems of construction, sought to integrate motivational elements and creative development of geometrical concepts related to construction the historical elements in the process of teaching and learning. For this was also used in this research plant construction models in the search for ease of viewing and understanding of geometrical concepts studied by students.

In today's society, the increasing integration of Science, Technology and its products in the life of the citizen demands that he be scientifically literate, able not only to understand these issues but make conscious use of its products, taking position autonomously and critique about them. Whereas the school is still the largest area of education systematized, it is in this space that much of the population will acquire the knowledge necessary to function in the world. However, our model of teaching is still highly introductory and marked by the transmission of decontextualized knowledge and, for that, has not cooperated effectively to form the citizen that the current society needs. This form of teaching usually reaches the Degree Courses, forming a professional within a single and totalitarian conception of science, which invariably will be passed on to their students. Seeking to build with the undergraduates another way to think of science, technology and its relations with society, this research conducted an insertion activity in the discipline of Supervised Stage II, that in Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz, Ilhéus / Bahia, is exclusively devoted to spaces of Non-Formal Education, using either the assumptions of scientific literacy, STS curricular perspective and later the Freire s ideas to build another model of science education that takes into consideration the situations of exclusion and helps to fight against the inequalities of Brazilian society. The objectives of this research were to identify theoretical and methodological elements of these theoretical references in educational practices developed by undergraduates, organized in the form of extension projects; to verify possible changes in their conceptions about teaching and science in this training context and to investigate how undergraduates recognize the possibilities of incorporating these references in the context of Formal and Non-Formal Education. The interviews with undergraduates, as well as the projects developed by them reveal that there is still great resistance to a science education that considers nonscientific aspects such as socials, economics, cultural, political etc., and although some recognize that this way of teaching has space within the non-Formal Education, the image of Formal Education that they have, does not allow them to consider innovations such as a more integrated education in this space. However, many undergraduates believes the insertion of STS perspective into the classroom at all levels, and also aspire a more humanized teaching and connected to the real context within the university itself. Experiences such as these show that innovation, creativity and real life itself can be incorporated into teaching practice of these future teachers, since they are formed in this way.

The main objective of this research is to analyze the A Nova Política do Brasil a compilation of pronouncements of the Vargas First Government, between 1930-1945 , and the central themes that was broadly debated by the specialized literature of the period about the position of the Vargas First Government regarding politics, state and economy. For the first element, it is pointed out the discussions about democracy, liberalism and organicism. For the second, and related to the first, the questions of the state centralization and intervention, bringing up the idea of that state configuration. Finally, the last element, intermingled with the two firsts and separated only for analytical reasons , that evoke a discussion about the economic transformations occurred along that period, and expressed in the tensions of the agrarian vocation e industrial vocation debate. Struggle that had as result the industrial development inclination. Despite this dilemma had been pointed consensually by specialized literature, the comprehension of that process dynamics and solutions are dissensual, generating various interpretations about the theme. Thus, the proposal of this thesis is to understand the 1930-1945 period as a process in construction, moving the controversies to the idea of process, trying to get how this has occurred in the level of the relations between the actors involved. We choose focuses on state, for sake of its role of protagonist broadly recognize by the experts of the period. We aggregated to this discussion a closer look upon the Vargas first government too, taken here as a catalyst of the new pact of alliances that was forming along the period, whose definition resulted of disputes in political field. Thus, this makes plausible the analysis of discursive production of that government condensed in A Nova Política. For this intention, it was called upon to the Gramsci s ideas in relation to the process, structure and conjuncture and to Pocock and his suggestions about the interfaces between text and context.

The research presented is linked to the Graduate Program in Education Strictu Sensu and objectively reveal the relations of paid internship with the processes of training , professionalization and casualization of teaching , and to the context of this study , we define the internship paid guided by the law 11.788/2008, which regulates the stage for students . This is a qualitative study, which considers the dynamic relationship between the real world and subject, in a indissoluble link between objectivity and subjectivity - this inherent to the subject that can not be quantified in their actions . The proposed methodology consists of literature search and field research from document analysis and content analysis in a dynamic correlation of both. Research about professionalization and casualization of teaching, have shown that the same factors that is favor professionalize teaching work their can be favor factors of precariousness and accordingly the dynamics of paid internship The Residency Educational Program established by the State Department of Education of São Paulo , as the locus of questioning the paid internship , from document analysis and content analysis , one can see that the practice proposed in this program meets the improvement in indices of systems of avaliation of student learning , especially on SARESP , focusing on the public schools that present as more vulnerable . The Residency Educational Program employs the practice of stage features instrumentation technique that the graduates of the paid internship , develop actions from a Activies Plan that is directly linked to the learning difficulties of the classes where do the stage , and there is also the prediction of support and assistance to professors . While the possibility formative research indicates that the program does not dialogue with the Curriculum Guidelines of undergraduate courses and both the action of the trainee as your listing, closes the purpose of the program , not the training itself , but guaranteed to solve the difficulties of student learning of public schools .

La materialización de la política lingüística prevista por el MERCOSUR alcanzó su punto álgido, en Brasil, con la Ley 11.161 / 2005 y, en Argentina, con la Ley 26.468 / 2009. Las respectivas leyes proponen la enseñanza del portugués y el español como lenguas extranjeras en sus estados miembros, respectivamente, en términos muy similares. Es precisamente la forma en que estos Estados intervienen en estos idiomas, en el sentido de implementar una política deseada para el MERCOSUR, lo que observamos en nuestra investigación, en la que analizamos las regularidades y discontinuidades encontradas en los procesos de presentación, procesamiento y sanción. Ley 11.161) y Ley 26.468 (Argentina). Para esta investigación utilizamos el marco teórico de las áreas de Política Lingüística y Análisis del Discurso de línea francesa. En el caso de la Ley 11.161, tuvimos como punto de partida el trabajo de Fernanda Castelano Rodrigues (2012) sobre el archivo legal y legislativo sobre la enseñanza de lenguas en el Sistema Educativo Brasileño. Intentando establecer relaciones entre el objeto analizado por Rodrigues y el proceso legislativo que condujo a la sanción del derecho argentino, nuestra investigación encontró regularidades en estos procesos y en su discurso. Buscando principalmente equivalencias entre los documentos que conforman los archivos legales y legislativos de los dos países, fue posible observar regularidades genéricas entre la justificación en el discurso legislativo brasileño y los “fundamentos” o “informes” en Argentina. En un segundo paso, confirmamos la equivalencia entre estos documentos a partir de tres características que Rodrigues detectó en el discurso del documento brasileño: “discurso sobre”, “efecto de circularidad y completitud” y “relaciones con el exterior”. Fue a partir de esta caracterización que pudimos encontrar regularidades y discontinuidades entre la Justificación brasileña y el Informe argentino a partir de dos focos de análisis: foco en la importancia del lenguaje y foco en la integración, que, por un lado, determinó la aprobación de la ley en cada uno de estos estados nacionales y, por otro lado, contribuyó a resaltar la forma en que las relaciones entre Brasil y Argentina se configuran en el ámbito del MERCOSUR.

The making of this paper was motivated by an interest in issues concerning the formation of (future) elementary math teachers through distance education and, in a more specific way, the role tutors play in this learning mode. The question that led our investigation was: Which online tutors actions in subjects that involve mathematics in a distance Pedagogy course allow us to identify them as teachers educators? Our theory referential approached issues on the formation of teachers in Pedagogy through discussions over mathematical formation in these courses, over the tutor s role and over the peculiarities of distance education, mainly regarding collective teaching. All data were collected in the Pedagogy course through distance education at Universidade Federal de São Carlos, an affiliate institution to the Brazilian Open University System (Sistema Universidade Aberta do Brasil). The object of the study allowed us to perform a case study which aims to develop knowledge by focusing a specific case and is represented in this study by online tutors work organization. The data that compose this research are questionnaires answered by tutors and students, material that is available online, interviews given by tutors, documents and Brazilian legislation regarding distance education as well as documentation on the organization of the university s distance courses. The analysis of the data took aspects of content analysis into consideration and was performed in a qualitative method. The tutors that were part of the research performed actions that allowed us to identify them as teachers educators in different moments: when they respected specific characteristics of distance education, when they approached issues regarding mathematics content and its teaching and when they acted independently during the collective teaching process. Besides their involvement with students formation, tutors acted as educators when they got involved in their own formative process and had a reflexive view on their own performances, on the course and on the distance education of mathematics. Working conditions, the way the coordination team organized the tutors work and the way each educator conducted his work influenced the tutors performances. After conducting the analysis, it was possible to consider that the quality of a teacher formation distance course is closely related to online tutors work organization and to the possibility that he/she plays the role of a teachers educator. Therefore the aspects that enable this performance must be kept, amplified and qualified and the ones that make the practice difficult must be discussed and minimized.

The analysis of an industrial cluster has become the main discussion to explain the firm agglomerations success worldwide in the last decade. This discussion has given a bigger dimension in economic terms, especially about the strategic management of the local productive chains. This paper aims to contribute to the theoric development of the theme by the proposition of an industrial cluster typology method considering that the set of local variables related to the firms characteristics are essential for the strengthening of the interfirms relationship and consequently their performance. The theoretical basis of this study are the types of clusters found in literature and the research object are the footwear firms (CPCF) from Franca S. Paulo state. The data analysis used was the descriptive statistics tecnicques as well as multivaried exploratory methods. From the theoretical view this study enabled the identification of multiple characacteristics derived from different cluster typologies within the same productive chain. Which extended the perpective about the strategic role played by the local cooperation and also offered the possibility of the managers and institution representatives reflect on the governance principles adopted in collective actions.

The demotivation observed in the students concerning Physics led to the searching for a theoretical referential which could guide this pedagogical work. So, one understands the importance of Science teaching that contributes to a full formation of a conscious citizen that knows how to use their scientific knowledge with social responsibility. One looked for understand the difficult presented in the process of teaching and learning of Physics, focusing mainly in its important relation with Mathematics. For this, supported by PCN, it was analyzed the relation existing between the abilities and competences used in Math and Physics teaching. One also considered in the research, the different stages existing in Science learning, from which one understood the necessity of reaching the multidimensional stage in our schools. From this view, and supported by bibliographic references, it was pointed the existence of four main difficulties presented in the learning process of this subject. They are the difficulties inherent to Physics teaching, which started with the exceeding, premature and almost exclusive use of Math. There are also difficulties arising from Math learning that affect the learning of Physics. The difficulties from Portuguese language domain presented by students when reading, writing and interpreting scientific texts, limit the qualitative understanding of the subject and consequently, its conceptual understanding can be impaired. The existence of epistemological barriers, which arise from the different approaches of its own conceptual body also influence negatively the teaching and learning process of Physics. Supported by this perspective, the following question was done: What should one has to learn to teach, so the classes of Science, Physics and its integration with Math can make the knowledge more significant and, so that, multidimensional stage could be reached? The bibliographic analysis led to work in a theoretical basis with The Mental Models from Johnson-Laird . Using this theoretical support, it was elaborated and applied a didactic sequence, which was developed considering the difficulties in learning that were analyzed in this work. It was looked for understanding qualitatively the results obtained with the application of this didactic sequence. This process led to the elaboration of some topics, which were considered to be relevant in the preparation of a pedagogical activity for the teaching and learning process to be really relevant and, thus, contribute with a full citizen formation and a truly significant learning.
