Teaching fractions represents a great challenge for most teachers from the fourth grade of Elementary School until High School. To offer to the Elementary School teacher one more tool to reach students in a more satisfactory way, this work has researched and applied a more artistic way to teach the contents cited above, inspired in Waldorf Education. It was created by Rudolf Steiner right after the First World War. Besides the artistic part, it was also considered the rhythm of teaching proposed by Steiner, respecting the age of the students and calling successively to the thinking, the feelling and the will during all class activities. The work was done in a class of the sixth grade of the E.E. Prof. Adail Malmegrim Gonçalves during the year of 2013 and considered the teaching of Fractions from the very beginning.

Ecological restoration is an emerging field of restoration ecology, and is widely used as an important tool for biodiversity conservation. However, appropriate indicative allocations of soil quality for the assessment and monitoring of forest restoration projects are still scarce. The objective of this study was to evaluate soil quality of four restored forests of different ages, a forest remnant and their agricultural surroundings in the State of São Paulo through chemical, physical and microbiological soil parameters by categorization by the weighted additive model. To measure the discrimination of soils due to the different locations and types of land use, the weighted additive model, along with a soil quality index (SQI) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used. The PCA differentiated the forests of their agricultural environments and locations with a prevalence of physical and chemical parameters in the distinction between the matrices. The parameters soil organic matter, total cation exchange capacity, phosphorus, soil bulk density, porosity, microbial biomass carbon and microbial activity had higher averages in the forests matrices, being higher in older forests. There was differentiation in soil quality of the studied forests, where the highest rates were obtained in the remaining forest soils and older restored forests. All forest areas showed higher rates compared to their respective agricultural environments. Finally, the SQI used were efficient for the identification of the areas, having potential as a tool to support decision-making on environmental issues.

The primary goal of this dissertation was to evaluate possible contributions that History of Mathematics and Theory of Problem Solving, by George Polya, allied, can offer to the teaching and learning process of some concepts of plane Euclidean geometry, primarily aiming at awakening logical reasoning, visual perception, and geometric thinking of students completing Primary Education. The research was motivated by the need for a more practical, realistic approach of geometry concepts. According to such purpose, a didactic sequence was built and a questionnaire was completed by subjects previously selected, involving a historical, non-routine, challenging problem, in order to lead the students to the historical solution or to other one(s), with the help from the teacher and Polya’s heuristics. We sought to answer the following question: what knowledge is produced by students involved in mathematical tasks inserted in the historical context? In the written records of students we found knowledge of geometric nature, such as visualization, representation, and broadening of mathematical vocabulary regarding use adequate geometric terms.

Industrial Port Complex of Suape (IPCS) project has a long trajectory and can be understood in four different moments of deployment in the history of regional development policy experiences to the Northeast. The first moment, 1955-1970, constitutes the studies coordinated by CONDEPE- highlighting to the research of Lebret in 1955. The second, 1970-1982, is characterized by the institutionalization of the PPS by the Pernambuco government in 1974 and the formulation of its first director’s plans. The third, 1983-2014, in the government of Fernando Henrique Cardoso, appears the PPS as one of the largest ports in Brazil. But, it was from 2006 that has emerged as one of the largest projects of the federal government, which brought together investments of its programs: Growth Acceleration Program (PAC); National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES); Northeast Constitutional Financing Fund (FNE). Also in this time, the Pernambuco government prepared its new Suape Director Plan – 2030. Our hypothesis, in this thesis, is that the Industrial Port Complex of Suape has a particularity: be idealized and institutionalized in new developmental period characterized by the protagonism of the State and public funds for the development leverage. This point – anchoring in developmental project - allows us to present similarities and differences in the proposals of the IPCS for development at different stages of its historical trajectory: by the Old developmentalism in the 1950s until 1970, at the latest phase in the 2000s. In both instances, the State was central figure in the development and was the protagonist of this process in formulating development policies. However, the central difference is that in the developmental period the concept of development was anchored in the axis of economic productivity as an ex-ante condition of social policies. In the new developmentalism the concept of development was marked by the binomial economic growth with social inclusion. The goal proposed in this thesis is to verify that in the period of 2003 to 2014 the federal government has formulated social policies with the same intensity that mobilized resources for economic growth for Suape. This goal was worked for five movement of analysis: 1) Identification of the conception of social policies present in Multi-annuals plans of the federal government; 2) Comparison of social policy design made by the federal government with the instruments of direct application in the strategic territory of Suape, designated by the theme notebooks and the new Director Plan for Suape – 2030; 3) Analysis of resources allocated to public policies in the social area in Suape from consultation realized in federal government programs (PAC, BNDES, FNE, Bolsa Família Program); 4) Assessments of structural changes in the territory of Suape, in special by the survey (or not) of social vulnerability fall and possible recent changes. This movement prioritized the quantitative analysis of the eight municipalities that compose the territory of Suape; 5) A last movement conducted the survey of actions of state and local governments of Pernambuco with the focus on public policies to Suape, using as basic material PPAs of Pernambuco and municipalities.

Through the transition from Empire to Republic in Brazil, coffee farmers constituted the economic and political elite on the municipal, state and federal levels. Starting from a Historical Sociology perspective and based on classical authors – Mosca, Pareto and Michels – the present research aimed to investigate the coffee farmers presence within the elite of São Carlos city, in São Paulo state, Brazil. With this respect, studying the configuration of those farmers was shown to be relevant to comprehend the bonds created and maintained between elite members, specifically between the years 1873 and 1904.

This thesis aims at analyzing the education of bachelor of laws regarding the teaching of Labor Law in Brazil to investigates if this study emancipates or has the purpose of maintaining the capital, instrumentalized by the empire of fragmented and legalistic education. For this, a discussion of the Labor Law in capitalism was done, with regulation of labor by Law and its historical process, through the thought of Karl Marx on the legal socialism, the formation of the working class and the antagonism of classes, as well as about state intervention in labor relations in Brazil. Then, the research focused on the analysis of Labor Law books adopted by some colleges in Brazil, evaluating whether they have the Labor Law in a critical dimension, drawing upon historical, political, philosophical, economic and sociological aspects. Reflect on the possibility of social emancipation through the Labor Law and what is its function in teaching at Law Schools was a significant challenge, allowing the questioning about the authority of the law doctrine and the fragmentation of education which does not reach the essence, since it does not dialogue with other knowledge areas and, at best, is just a non-organic dialogue throughout the text. Based on the analysis, it was found that the Labor Law has as main objective the order maintenance. Thus is necessary to question the possibility of using Labor Law to better social conditions of the working class until a possible emancipation in a perspective in which the law school graduate, the jurist and who deals with law in general, cannot ignore this understanding, regardless of position on the production relations.

The consumption of licit and illicit drugs has increased in a considerable way among women, which becomes a great concern for the managers and a public health problem. Women have different physical characteristics that empower the harmful effects of psychoactive substance use, yonder the suffering of self-stigma, prejudice and stigmatization process by society. This fact demands from the health team the implementation of differentiated actions for this specific population. This study has the aim to analyze the perception of the health team from a CAPS AD from a city in the countryside of São Paulo state about their developed work towards a woman who uses alcohol and other drugs problematically. It is about a case study of qualitative method performed from November 2013 to March 2014, with 12 health professionals from a CAPS AD team, using semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and as analysis technique, the thematic content analysis. The study had as theoretical-interpretative framework the everyday and not everyday concept of Agnes Heller. Three thematic categories came up: development of the assistance work, development of the administrative and educational work and the difficulties on the everyday work with the women users. The results pointed the valorization of reception and qualified hearing activities by the health team, despite the predominance of assistance work be geared toward the male audience. The team’s meeting was a collective management strategy identified by the health professionals in the administrative dimension. In the educational scope the CAPS AD consisted on practical scenario of teaching and learning, strengthening the academics’ and health workers’ education. The main difficulties consisted on the material environmental and human conditions at CAPS AD, in the everyday work. The fragilities found in the organization’s network of psychosocial care of the city reflected on the development work of these professionals, creating physical and emotional overload. It was concluded that despite the prevalence of a pragmatic repetitious and alienated work, the health professionals could ponder discreetly about the work developed with the female audience.

This thesis aims to reveal and to analyze which design New Lourenço Filho School brought up through the prefaces which were published in works Collection Education Library. The assumptions of this research focus in the field of history of pedagogical ideas and historical theory - Critical (Saviani, 2007) adding to these discussions contributions of Certeau (2008). The results point to the conclusion that the design of the New School created and propagated by Lourenço Filho in prefaces written by him - which were published in works Collection Education Library - although fragmented and heterogeneous, was designed with a homogenizer character. By advocating a reform speech, Lourenço Filho created an imaginary in which he articulated by this movement was a departure from what until then had been perpetrated in the educational field. Thus, this new school of design was intended, through the works Collection Education Library, mold/direct the mentality of the teachers of the time.

This paper aims at developing a better understanding of what has set up the new role of the medium-size cities in Sao Paulo in their urban network as well as how their forms of expansion have contributed to the continuity of the construction of cities increasingly unequal as regards the occupation of the territory. The addressed settings concern the production of Housing Projects of Social Interest promoted by the housing policy aimed at low-income families and the production of Closed Housing Projects associated with land and real estate interests. These modalities help in the spatialization of socio-territorial segregation and supports the understanding of the logic city center x outskirts. The research on two empirical objects aimed to illustrate how these settings appropriate the peripheral areas of the cities of Sao Carlos and Sao Jose do Rio Preto. In order to strengthen the argument, the application of three analyzing variables guided the reading of the processes that have been reinforced as well as the processes that have been provoked in the intra-urban scale. Although the origin of the phenomena is the result of disputes over the occupation of urban space, the analytical approach indicated the similarities and peculiarities which were found in each city.

Stereoscopy is a form of image reproduction older than photography itself, and unlike it, it rearranges the spatiality of the elements in the screen, allowing observers different points of view. Although stereoscopy being a form of visualization this old, it did not remain obsolete. It has been reinvented nowadays with the help of different reproduction techniques. Stereoscopy expanded to the cinema, and recently for television and videogames. Regarding stereoscopy, this dissertation proposes to address how the tridimensional perspective influences the immersive experience in videogames, leading the virtual space of the game, closer to the interactor, which ultimately creates an intimate relationship between those two agents, giving new meanings to the interaction. Thus, for the development of this research, it was necessary to survey the historical evolution of stereoscopy, videogames and devices that enable immersion through virtual reality, to understand how this evolution happened and which was the motivation that led to this demand. After this historical overview, this research proposes to present what are the features that make the act of playing a video game something so immersive that sensitizes players to try new experiences. At last, we analyze games that use stereoscopy as a feature that enables enhanced immersion in their experiences, in order to understand the strategies that these games use to strengthen the link between the interactor and the fantastic interactive worlds, making a survey of the main characteristics that are aggregated to these games.

Stressful situations are a real or potential threat for psychological or physiological integrity of an individual. The underlying neurobiological substrates involved in these processes were substancially investigated through the use of animal models of stress. In this context, a crescent number of studies have used more naturalistic animal tests, such as the social defeat test. Regarding neurobiological substrates, it is known that the amygdala plays an important role in the modulation of defensive responses. This forebrain structure has several neurotransmitters and receptors with important implications in emotional states. In this context, the neuropeptide Corticotropin Releasing Factor (CRF) and its receptors, CRF1 and CRF2, have been recently investigated as an important modulatory system of defensive reactions to aversive situations. Activation CRF mechanisms in the amygdala has been postulated as a possible neurochemical substrate underlying the emotional disorders, especially anxiety disorders, induced by stress in humans. To study anxiety-related responses induced by stressors in animals, the elevated plus maze (EPM) test has been widely used. While previous studies have emphasized the role of CRF1 receptors in modulation of anxiety in rodents exposed to the EPM, the involvement of CRF2 receptors remains unclear. Few studies, however, have investigated the effects of CRF and CRF1 and CRF2 antagonists injected directly into the amygdala on the defensive responses in mice. In addition, several studies are needed to clarify the complex relationship between CRF neurotransmission of the amygdala in the etiology of anxiety disorders related to previous exposure to stress. This study investigated the role of CRF in the amygdala upon the defense reactions evaluated in the EPM in mice previously exposed to acute social defeat. Therefore, we carried out experiments to (i) characterize the effects of acute social defeat on behavior in the EPM and on the levels of plasma corticosterone; (ii) to investigate the effects of intraamygdala microinjection of CRF, CRF1 and CRF2 antagonists on the behavior of mice in the EPM and (iii) to investigate the effects of intra-amygdala microinjections of CRF1 and CRF2 antagonists on anxiety-related behaviors of mice pre-exposed to acute social defeat. Results showed that the exposure to acute social defeat stress produces anxiogenesis at short and long terms (i.e, assessed 5 min and 10 days after stress exposure), however short-term anxiety response is variable. Stress-short term effects are accompanied by increased plasma corticosterone levels. In addition, while intra-amygdala CRF increases anxiety, local injection of CRF1 (but not CRF2) receptor antagonists produced anxiolytic-like effects, suggesting a tonic role of CRF1 in the modulation of anxiety in mice exposed to the EPM. However, it was not possible to determine what is the role of CRF neurotransmission in the responses displayed by mice pre-exposed to social defeat and submitted to EPM.

This thesis describes and analyzes from economic transaction cost (ETC) theoretical framework, formal agreements between ten citrus growers and a set of five citrus processors between 1978/79 to 2011/12 harvest seasons. The research uses an exploratory multiple-case study methodology, to deepen the historical relationships established, identifying transactional and relational elements involved, besides the maladaptation problems. The main objective is to verify empirically contractual governance form in São Paulo citrus complex, in the view of new institutional economics (NIE) and the contracts economy, deepening problems of contractual incompleteness, ex-ante and ex-post opportunism and external/internal transaction enforcements requirements. The result of this academic work is a relational contract model proposition that should be implemented in the negotiation between citrus processors and growers, a new orange box buy and sell contracts, supported by relational governance principles and arbitrated by an independent third party. This relational contract model could give greater governance stability and cohesion, reducing conflicts and also transaction cost between citrus growers and processors, modifying São Paulo citrus crises and stagnation that persist more than one decade.

In this dissertation we made an analytic study of the Bethe Ansatz equations for the XXZ six vertex model with periodic boundary conditions. We had show that the Bethe Ansatz equations deduced from the algebraic and coordinate Bethe Ansatze are related by a conformal map. This allowed us to reduce the Bethe Ansatz equations to a system of polynomial equations. For the one, two and three magnon sectors, we succeeded in decouple these equations, so that the solutions could be expressed in terms of the roots of some self-inversive polynomials, Pa (z). Through new theorems deduced here about the distribution of the roots of self-inversive polynomials in the complex plane, we did a thorough analysis of the distribution of the Bethe roots for the two-magnon sector. This analysis allowed us to show that the Bethe Ansatz is indeed complete for this sector, except at some critical values of the anisotropy parameter A, in which the polynomials Pa (z) may have multiple roots. Finally, an unexpected connection between the Bethe Ansatz equations and the Salem polynomials was found and a new algorithm for search small Salem numbers was elaborated.

Brazilian agriculture is currently experiencing significant losses due to a recently introduced pest, the Helicoverpa armigera caterpillar. Belonging to the Heliothinae subfamily, it is an extremely polyphagous insect that has intensely attacked various crops of economic importance, including soybeans, cotton, corn, beans, and tomatoes. Scientometrics is the quantitative study of scientific production, allowing the evaluation of trends and contributions to research activities carried out by researchers, institutions, or countries in different areas of knowledge. Therefore, the objective of this study was to provide an overview of scientific research on H. armigera in Brazil based on bibliometric indicators. To achieve this, a survey of indexed scientific publications present in the SCOPUS® and Google Scholar® databases was carried out. Between 2005 and 2015, approximately 1,860 documents related to H. armigera were published worldwide. As the pest recently emerged in Brazil, only 22 publications were authored by Brazilian authors in the same period. Therefore, it is observed that the incidence of the pest in Brazil was the main motivation for starting research on the caterpillar in the country, whose management and control are urgently needed.

There are several issues related to the pedagogical use of technologies for the construction of knowledge in the current Brazilian education system. Some pass through large and complex issues, such as the transmission of trend change instruction conducted through blackboard and chalk for a reality involving the use of digital technologies as mediators of this process. In this scenario, the future teacher lacks experience in their formative process, the pedagogical use of technology to be able to incorporate them into their lessons. There are several challenges to this incorporation into the teaching-learning process, since simple computerization of school environment does not guarantee the desired benefits. This study assumes that the pedagogical use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) contributes enhancing, facilitating and encouraging the teaching of Mathematics and should be part of initial and continuing teacher training. So this research has the main objective to analyze, from the point of view of the participants in a formative experience, contributions and limits the insertion of the pedagogical use of technology in teacher training so that they can reflect on and use them as a teaching tool in Basic Education in their future professional activities. The theoretical framework for this teacher training focuses on the use of technology in the initial training of teachers of Mathematics and the pedagogical use of ICT. More specifically, it assumes the Lee Shulman knowledge bases and the TPACK framework (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge and Technological Knowledge and Pedagogical Content) Koehler and Mishra. Data were produced by 12 undergraduate students who attended a formative experience over the past year students for a Degree in Mathematics. In this experience they had the opportunity to select digital tools and teach specific classes in detail planned for the computer lab. In a later stage, a couple of interns pedagogically used GeoGebra software for teaching quadratic functions for two 1st year of high school classes. Data were obtained through the application of a pool to characterize the subjects and daily researcher and diaries of the participants followed for the practical classes were prepared, as well as interviews from semi-structured pool. The qualitative analysis was organized in a way that links aspects of learning and difficulties that participants had regarding the selection of technologies and their use in simulated classes or basic education, in the computer lab during the supervised training. The results show learnings, indicate potential and limits on the use of technologies and also emphasize the need for experience of undergraduate students in the pedagogical use of ICT so that they feel at ease in using them pedagogically throughout their careers.

In the agri-chain of cassava starch in Brazil, the supply of firms is through different governance structures. These structures range from the purchase via the spot market - without any contractual control over the production - to the hierarchy or vertical integration, structure in which the company is growing in own areas, with full control over the production. Between these two extremes were also identified other governance structures, which are called Hybrid arrangements that can approach the spot market or hierarchy. This essay aimed to identify the factors that influence the decisions of the paranaenses starch factories on the governance structures in buying - cassava supply in the state of Paraná. The specific objectives are: a) show if there is specifics that support the necessity to search for a particular organizational arrangement to the detriment of business through the spot market in the state of Paraná; b) analyze the factors that justify the choices of cassava starch factories for plural or singular forms in the state of Paraná; c) comparing the efficiency of the use or the combination of governance mechanisms in cassava starch factories in Paraná State, considering idleness as an index for the year 2014. The entire analysis of this essay is based on the theoretical assumptions of the New Institutional Economics (NIE), especially in the Transaction Cost Economics (TCE). In this essay the explanatory method was the most appropriate, once for this it sought to identify the determining factors for the occurrence of the phenomena observed: i) coexistence of plural forms of governance to coordinate the purchase of cassava by starch factories in Brazil and in the state of Paraná. This research method more approach the scientific knowledge to the real world as it explains the reason and why the facts. In the case of cassava, the characteristics of transactions - temporal and locational characteristics, as well as uncertainty and frequency – were not relevant for the choice of governance structures, on the contrary to what literature indicates. Even considering these characteristics, in Brazil and in the state of Paraná was prevailing the coordination by the spot market. The results also indicated the existence of a plurality of transactions in many levels - with different agents, and similar agents in a single transaction - since the combination of different governance structures can reduce transaction costs and even increase the efficiency of industry here measured by the reduction of industrial idleness.

For any action in fauna’s conservation it is necessary to have the previous knowledge of the species in order to adopt the best intervention strategies and to optimize the process. This way, even though the Southern Brown Howler monkey is considered vulnerable to extinction in Sao Paulo State, by the Environment Ministry, few studies on these animals have been conducted at the Fontes do Ipiranga State Park - PEFI, Atlantic Forest urban fragment in the city of Sao Paulo. Therefore, this study is aimed to get basic information about the ecology of the two groups that inhabit the region, as home range, activity pattern and diet, create data in the role they play in the maintenance and regeneration of the forest, as the seed dispersers and to analyze the effects on germination in seeds that passes through their digestive tract. The groups were followed in the period of November 2013 to October 2014, the group in the Zoological Park Foundation of São Paulo (area 1), with the final number of five individuals, and the group in the Botanical Garden of São Paulo (area 2), with final composition of nine individuals, both located in the protected area Fontes do Ipiranga State Park - PEFI. The areas belong to different zoning in the management plan of the protected area, and have different degrees of conservation of its forest. Each group was monitored monthly for three full days. Diet items were recorded by the ad libitum method and subsequently identified, totaling 55 species. Syagrus romanzoffiana highlighted by the large participation in the diet of both groups. The seed germination tests comparing a control group (seeds that have not passed through the digestive tract) with samples taken from animal feces showed a significant positive effect on Ficus luschnathiana and Cecropia spp. seeds. The home range was determined by the method of the Minimum Convex Polygons with points being marked in the GPS every half hour, and found home range of 3.5 ha and 5.6 ha for the area’s groups 1 and 2, respectively. The activity pattern was made by the scan sampling method, with scanning every ten minutes and resulted in the usual pattern described for the species: high percentages of time spent resting and low social interaction.

The present research is guided in discourse analysis "about" and "the" practice of security officers at "Cracolândia" (or Crackland) - located in the central region of São Paulo. The main purpose is to identify the differentiation between users and drug dealers by the officers. The empirical view focuses the Municipal Program to Combat Crack and Other Drugs, entitled "Open Arms", which foresees the intersectorality between the work of Social Welfare, Health and Public Safety in the "fight" to crack. I discuss my object from the speeches of security officers, social workers, health workers and crack users on how policing will be in the region as well as on how it is performed in practice. Documental and field research was performed with different agents that act on the management and use of crack users in the region of "Cracolândia". From the field data, it was possible to note the production of a criminal selectivity in how to operationalize the distinction between users and dealers, question to which I would like to give attention. Thus, I try to fill a gap in the studies of public policies to combat the drug in relation to the apparatus of control exercised by state agents of public security in the region of "Cracolândia".

Continuous flow technology of cycloheptanic compounds derived from (R)-(–)-carvone and the C23-C31 fragment used in the total synthesis of spirangien A methyl ester and spirodienal A polyketides” In the first part of this thesis is described the improvement and development of two synthetic routes to the cycloheptenone 73, in the deca-gram scale, from the monoterpene (R)-(–)-carvone (58). Were developed reactions in the continuous flow mode to accelerate and increase the scale production of 73, and thus avoiding chemical logistics issues. Sharing the principle of the diversity oriented synthesis and taking advantage from the cycloheptanic chiron flexibility, were developed α-carbonyl alkylations followed by catalysis with transition metal, to get, in a fast way, structurally diverse compounds such as spiro 74, guaiane type 75, xathane 76 and the tris-ketal compound 78. The second part of this thesis encompasses some results of our collaboration with Prof. Steven V. Ley CBE FRS and deals with the synthesis acceleration of the fragment 145 through the usage of continuous flow processes. The compound 145 is an advanced synthetic intermediate for the spirangien A (79), spirangien A methyl ester (80) and spirodienal A (81) syntheses, which are on matter at the Prof. Ley`s group. xxiii

The aim of this study is to analyze how professionalism, difference, gender and generation in the journalism career are articulated, from the exam of the journalists’ discourses in the city of São Paulo. We use up the concept of professionalism and the Sociology of the Professions theoretical reference, based on the contributions of Eliot Freidson and Julia Evetts to understand the values of journalism, the representations around what it would be the journalist’s function, the meaning of the changes in the profession, with the emergency of a new journalist’s profile, the relations of the profession with the learning at the universities and at the editorial rooms, the historical changes according to the orientation of the journal and the professional, and their specificities with reference to the process of professionalization of the journalism in Brazil. Our aim is to comprehend how female journalists are represented in different discourses of difference. For this, our approach is set on the Avtar Brah’s theoretical assumptions, highlighting the concept of difference as an analytical category and its several meanings. We have also based our analysis on other cultural studies agents that discuss about the decentralization of the subject and its identity, as the internal diversity that characterizes gender. Fifteen journalists were interviewed, women and men, who live and work in the city of São Paulo, of different generations who act in different types of media and with different types of hire in their relations of work. The selection of the interviewed women searched, contemplate single women professionals, married, with or without children, with different time of work, that represent the time dedicated to the personal and professional lives, corresponding to the impact of personal life in the construction of the career and to the possibilities to balance between these two dimensions in the social life.
