This work focuses on Brazilian independent cinema and the new paths cinematographers, specially the young ones, are following to make movies. The idea is to observe the new contemporary Brazilian cinema scene and some of its own characteristics, highlighting non traditional subsidezed funds, exhibition and distribution options on alternative channels, such as the internet, film clubs and festivals, as well as aesthetic aspects of its production. Their movies can be understood as peripheric as they may be found outside the scope that includes instutionalized cinema. So 'Cartão Postal' (Josinaldo Medeiros and Wagner Novais, 2011) will be our study case, since it is a movie that can be called peripheric and it is also fit in a specific genre of movie that has been produced on favelas, called cinema de periferia. This movie will be studied on its formal aesthetic dimension as well as on its production strategies, observing how it can fit into some of the main characteristics of this new Brazilian scene.

This research aims to investigate in what way the course of continuing education, and more specifically, the discussion in foruns gender conducted online and offered by the National Pact for Literacy in the Age One (PNAIC) / UFSCar contributes to building and reflection of teaching knowledge and literacy of Study advisors (OEs). The function of these advisors is to form literacy teachers for PNAIC, a project that aims to ensure that all children are fully literate by eight. The development of the research took place within the Distance Learning (EaD) in order to discuss about the interactions that occur in the forums offered in the Moodle platform for Advisors´ study. From this ample goal, the research questions were formulated, which consist of: a) How does the discussion forum that environment?; b) How the gender forum provides interaction, and construction of teaching knowledge ?; c) How do the training course and the forum contribute to the digital literacy? The research is guided by theoretical contributions focused on the discursive genre (BAKHTIN,1997; MARCUSCHI, 2002, 2008, 2010), the dialogism (BAKHTIN,1992; 2006), literacy (KLEIMAN, 2005; STREET, 2007; SOARES, 2000) and digital literacy (BUZATO, 2001, 2006; RIBEIRO, 2009; XAVIER, 2007). The research methodology is qualitative and the methodological procedures used include questionnaire analysis, and participant observation. The results suggest that the forum gender causes and encourages interaction between OEs; and apparently it allows for reflection and construction of teaching knowledge; Furthermore the course and the forum contribute to digital literacy, as it implies learning new ways of reading and writing mediated by technological tools, and provides the knowledge / learning of the virtual tool uses, for example, posts of activities and messages.

Before the great influence that the playfu has in the childhood by providing children to create, to experience new situations, to connect with their peers and to experience elements of culture, it was taken as na ally in education, especially in Young children education as part of many school practices. Thus, this work aimed to know and understand the processes of teaching and learning that occur in the relationships between children and between them and the teacher in the context of play in early childhood education. It also sought to identify how the toy is placed by the children at that time of the play and what roles are as signed by them to that object. We began conducting a literature search in databases and to support us about it, we conducted a theoretical research around topics such as childhood, children, early childhood education in Brazil and playfulness. Qualitative, the research took place with a group of 14 children, having a mean age of 3 years, enrolled in ‘Maternal II’ and their teacher at a public school in kindergarten in the city of Pederneiras - SP. With the approach of conducting research with children, the researcher conducted participant observation, tracking the moment of play that occurred on Fridays, the day the children took his toys to school. Recording the data collection field diaries used and performed the analysis with reference to the content analysis. At the end of the Field research 13 daily were written, one for each insert performed. The authors Who guided the data discussion were: Brougère, Borba, Corsaro, Freire, Rossetti-Ferreira, Sommerhalder; Alves, Carvalho, Kishimoto, Guimarães; Barbosa, Horn, Leontiev and others. The results show that in play children experienced processes of teaching and learning to strengthen the group interaction: knowing how to live and play with each other, lending, trading, deny the request to someone, teach new ways to play, meet other spaces, strengthen friendly relations. When interacting with the toys, children have shown that these objects were essential to their play, being used the way they are or processed according to the imagination or need for the play could occur. When they experience such processes of teaching and learning these children have shown that in the free play, they lived training experiences for life.

The education developed in the schools in the rural area, historically, has witnessed the ills and the neglect of the public power. The claims for having schools in the rural area can be observed in surveys such as Andrade (1993) and the question of to think the Brazilian education and the schools in accordance to the social reality has been placed in the agenda since the propositions of the representatives of the new school, with the Manifesto dos Pioneiros da Educação Nova of 1932, though very little progress. After a long period of Civil- Military Dictatorship in Brazil and the opening for the political democratization, the social movements, before silenced, were able to reorganize and others were created, most claiming rights, including land reform, which in its essence also brought the problematic of the developed education in the rural schools of the country. Since to question the rural education to the appearance of the new propositions for an education for the field, whether they be field education or education in the field, we had educational policies created from the 2000's, the result of the debates and concessions in the face of these demands. Since 2001, we are studying this construction process of the policies and their relationship with the field schools, in this sense, arose the interest in analyzing the educational reality in the educational system of the city of Parauapebas/Pará and in Brazil, in the master, to understanding how has developed the rural or field education in this town from 2005 to 2010, in the period when the field research was carried out. As a methodology we chose the qualitative research, using of the following proceedings: bibliographical study, documentary and field research with the collection of materials and images, registering photos on some schools and applying semistructured interviews to five subjects, in exercise, that we believe are relevant to the understanding of our object: Department of education, Coordinator of the rural education Sector, Pedagogical Coordinator of the rural education Sector, representative of the Landless Rural Workers' Movement (MST), representative of the community in which is located the Escola da Pedagogia da Alternância, in addition we collect reports on teachers’ training and in the Escola Jorge Amado, known as Estação Conhecimento created by the Companhia Vale (CV) in one of its properties. As a result we can highlight that although some educational policies for the rural area have been created, still walking at a slow steps as its implementation in this location. The teacher training both in the sense of the valorization and the qualification need to advance, either in the socialization of knowledge historically built by the humanity, or by the historical appropriation of the peasant reality, walking towards the building of a society where the peasant working class and their children have the right to enjoy the benefits provided by the means of production of the society, of their work and of the technological progress. Regarding the schools taken to exemplify the rural schools, it is worth highlighting the importance of the collective construction of the educational process by the school community, as well as, we should observe and supervise private initiatives (such as those undertaken by the Companhia Vale) within the public education, her administration, educational policies and pedagogical training for fighting against privatization processes grounded in the agenda of the capitalist State.

Materials and processes used to manufacture executive aircraft interiors play an important role in aesthetic and competitive product differentiation, in a scenario where there is growing competition and pressures for more sustainable products. It has been observed that the selection of these materials and processes, in the early stages of product development, has introduced limited measures to reduce costs and environmental improvements in manufacturing, which is reflected in the scientific literature available. This research addresses procedures for materials and processes selection including these factors, as well as other customer and aeronautical design requirements, which requires specialized information and methods of analysis established for this approach of priorities. The aim was to evaluate the current materials and processes and identify new opportunities, looking for a strategy to improve the selection methodology, as a contribution to greater integration design - materials - processes. The main analytical tool used was Value Stream Mapping, associating concepts of lean manufacturing, design for manufacturing and assembly, ecodesign and product lifecycle. Mapping applied to case studies involving an item of furniture was suitable to draw closer environmental requirements and manufacturing prospecting activities, as well as selecting materials and processes. The research also explored solutions filed on patents and knowledge from other industrial sectors which were in line with the opportunities. One example is biopolymer solid panels reinforced with natural fibres, as substitutes for structural materials produced from non-renewable and toxic sources, which require adding resins to reinforce and close the honeycomb core. There was synergy between the possible solutions aimed at improving the economic performance and environmental sustainability of the product, such as ultraviolet radiation curable resins to finish the panels.

The presented research would like to understand the process of ill be teaching in the school context from the teacher’s perceptions. For this work context, we make explicit some of the tensions of post-modernity and related issues to the teaching profession, seeking relationships with professional malaise. It is a qualitative research, from the inseparable link between objectivity and subjectivity, considering that the subject cannot be quantified in their feelings and actions. For this research, we selected two primary state education schools in Sorocaba. They hold opposing positions, in other words satisfactory or unsatisfactory results, in the education human development index of São Paulo State Education (IDESP) 2014. Using fifteen semi-structured questionnaires and interviews, we have checked and organized some possible indicators of ill-being between the employees in the school context, composing a general overview of the subject. From the categorization and analysis, a data triangulation, between them and the specific literature, we realized explicit perceptions of teachers about the ill-being feature in the school context and their possible implications for the current demands, class organization and working conditions. Some issues related to the ill-be can stand out, such as the lack of motivation and student’s indiscipline, school violence, long working hours and the pressure caused by external evaluations. About experiences on uncomfortable situations, the teaches emphasize the abuse of students with the professionals and also point the class attribution in the beginning of the school year and school administration impositions as main cause of this malaise. Thus, according the categories: the teacher malaise in the classroom and the teacher discomfort with working conditions and school training, we underline these teacher’s feelings in the teaching and learning process management, the way how it reach them in their school attribution and their prospects facing the problem the continuing education at school.

Con el avance tecnológico, smartphones y tablets han pasado a integrar nuestras vidas poniéndonos delante textos que mesclan escrita, layout, imágenes, sonidos y objetos 3D. Sin embargo, aunque nuestra exposición a un uso intenso de imágenes en las prácticas sociales pos-modernas que ocurren fuera de los muros de las escuelas, la sistematización con fines pedagógicos aún es insuficiente (OLIVEIRA, 2013), indicando la necesidad de investigaciones que se dediquen a los nuevos letramentos y que visen al perfeccionamiento de la capacidad de lectura de imágenes y otras semioses. Tras el hipótesis de que las actividades de lectura y producción de texto en sala de clase muchas veces no exploran de manera suficiente la interacción entre texto verbal y no-verbal, nuestro trabajo objetiva observar las formas de utilización de materiales paradidácticos en los años iniciales en escuela municipal de enseñanza, en el ámbito del Pacto Nacional por la Alfabetización en la Edad Cierta (PNAIC), con especial atención sobre la forma de dialogo que se construye entre texto verbal y no-verbal. Fundamentamos nuestra investigación en los llamados Estudios del letramento (KLEIMAN 1995, 2007; MARTINS, 2008) y en las teorías que abordan la relación de la imagen con la palabra (SIGNORI, 2014), utilizándonos también del Análisis Critica del Discurso de Fairclough (MEURER, 2015). La metodología de nuestro trabajo se compuso, de un lado, de investigación bibliográfica con profundización en las teorías mencionadas y, de otro, de estudio de caso de sesgo etnográfico (LÜDKE; ANDRÉ, 2012; ANDRÉ, 1995). Estamos inseridos en los presupuestos de la investigación de sesgo cualitativo, sin embargo, nuestro estudio también abarcó algunos elementos cuantitativos. Los resultados señalan la necesidad de un direccionamiento más adecuado para los libros infanto-juveniles en las salas de clase teniendo en cuenta el carácter humanizador de la literatura (CANDIDO, 1992), así como para la importancia de que sea realizado un trabajo con la multimodalidad, de manera a hacer que diferentes modalidades semióticas sean consideradas como productoras de sentido.

One of the most important aspects maize cultivation is the management of fertilization, in order to achieve maximum efficiency in the use of nutrients offered with fertilizers. Nitrogen (N) is the most required nutrient by maize. The source and the form of application of N can influence its use by the culture, since N is subject to important routes of loss, such as leaching, denitrification and, above all, volatilization. The fertilizer industry has invested in new manufacturing technologies, such as polymer-coated urea, which reduce the potential for loss and increase the efficiency of nutrient use by plants. The objective of this work was to compare conventional N fertilizers (common urea and ammonium sulphate) with an innovative source of N, provided with protective technology to minimize losses of the element, regarding the supply of N in topdressing fertilization to maize crop and the effects on plant biometry and soil fertility attributes. Conventional cultivation of maize, AG 8061 PRO 2 hybrid, took place in a dystrophic Oxisol, considering a high response to N and expected productivity of 8 to 10 t ha-1. The experiment was carried out under field conditions, in a completely randomized design, with 5 replicates and 4 treatments with N in the topdressing fertilization: T0 - control; T1 - ammonium sulfate; T2 - polymer-coated urea; T3 - common urea. At 150 days after planting, biometric evaluations of plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves above the ear, dry weight, productivity, weight per ear, and mass of a thousand grains were performed. Macro and micronutrients contents were determined on the diagnostic leaf for evaluation of the nutritional status of maize. At the end of the experiment, chemical analysis for soil fertility purposes, including N, was performed. The results were subjected to analysis of variance and, when significant by the F test (p<0.05), were evaluated by the Tukey test (p<0.05). The use of different sources of N did not influence the biometric and productivity parameters of the maize crop and the leaf contents of K, S and micronutrients. Leaf contents of N, Ca and, Mg were higher in maize plants fertilized with ammonium sulfate. Plants that received common urea showed higher P leaf levels. Leaf levels of P, K, S, Cu and Zn were insufficient, regardless of treatment. The N source did not cause changes in soil attributes, except for the Ca content and the cation exchange capacity, which were higher in the plots fertilized with common urea. Contrary to expectations, the N source did not cause changes in soil pH and residual N. Polymer-coated urea did not promote improvements in the biometric and productivity parameters of the maize crop and in the soil attributes, exhibiting performance similar to the conventional N fertilizers.

Through the last decades, forest remnants were widely converted in crops and pastures, but the reintroduction of native trees offers the perspective of forests ecosystems restoration. This study aimed to investigate the recolonization by birds in riparian restored and reference sites, evaluating the effects of vegetation structure on avifaunal functional categories. We estimated vegetation structure by grass cover, tree density, total basal area, crown depth, height and diameter at breast height of each individual. We classified bird species by diet, foraging strata, nest height, dependence of cavities for nesting and forest dependence. To assess which characteristics were influenced by vegetation structure, we conducted canonical correspondence analysis, using as independent variables the three first axis of principal component analysis of vegetation variables, respectively related to canopy height, crown depth and stratification. We recorded 53 bird species in 326 registers. The avifauna of reference sites were richest and more diverse in all bird taxonomic descriptors. Canopy height influenced avifauna in relation to diet, foraging strata and forest dependence, and combinations of these functional traits also were affected by canopy height and crown depth. Species related to most open sites were granivorous or generalists with low forest dependence. Understory bird species occurred mainly in intermediate stages of vegetation growth, presenting middle forest dependence and more restrict diet. Insetivorous birds with high forest dependence characterized reference sites, with tallest vegetation. Our results emphasized the importance of considering functional traits of bird species on planning and evaluating recolonization of restored sites by birds. Considering the effects of riparian vegetation structure on bird assemblages, we suggest that reintroduction of plant life-forms other than trees for restoration purposes can accelerate both bird taxonomic and functional diversity across recolonization process.

The English Language teacher education has undergone profound changes in recent years. A determining factor for these changes was the creation of the National Curricular Guidelines (DCN) by the National Council of Education of the Ministry of Education in order to underpin the development of the curricula of these courses. This research focuses on the analysis of the consequences in the implementation of the DCN for degree courses in language and literature, specifically English language teachers education courses in the process of reformulating their curricula in order to have them aligned to the determinations in the governmental document. For the verification of these consequences articles, dissertations and theses from 2003 (one year after the publication of DCN) to 2014 were analyzed. The chosen research methodology was the qualitative meta-analysis, which allows, with the use of systematic review, to objectively select the works to be analyzed in order to find answers to the research questions. Initially 163 works were selected and, after the systematic review, 12 of these remained for the final analysis. The analysis of these studies indicates that the English language teachers education scenario presents many challenges in the relationship between the proposals of the State and its practical application in the formulation and administration of the curriculum of English language teacher education courses.

The education of disabled people has been addressed by several public policies arising from important legislative advances over the past few years, which, according to the Higher Education Census data (2001 - 2013), increased the number of enrollments in this type of education, in both public and private spheres. The Decree nº 5626 from 2005 sets outs considerations on bilingual education for deaf people and foresees the possibility of evaluation through alternative mechanisms. Considering this context and focusing on video-recorded entrance examinations in Libras (Brazilian Sign Language), we look for possible answers to the guiding question of this study: what are the impressions of deaf candidates and managers of the entrance examination in Libras, concerning the accessibility barriers (linguistic, cultural and pedagogical) in the admission of students for federal universities? This study aimed to investigate how deaf people who took the video-recorded entrance examination in Libras for two federal universities could comprehend the service addressed to meet their language needs, besides the impressions of the examinations managers. We carried out a qualitative research, exploratory and descriptive, with a semi-structured interview. We translated all the interviews and categorized the data, identifying divergences and convergences within the statements. Authors like Vygotsky (1984, 1989, 1991, 2008), Luria (1980, 1990), Lacerda (1996, 1998, 2000, 2006, 2009, 2012, 2013), Fernandes (2004, 2006, 2008, 2011) and others was adopted as theoretical basis. For methodological design, we used Lacerda (2003), Spink (2000), Costa (2015) and other studies. The results show that deaf people were satisfied with the entrance examination in Libras for both universities since they claim that their linguistic and cultural needs are met. However, accessibility was not enough for everyone to be approved in the examination since there is a deficit in the construction of academic knowledge in the service offered to deaf people in basic education, what needs to be overcome by the realization of high quality education in Brazilian schools. The interviewee also pointed out some technical problems related to the video-recording, which, if taken into account, can guide future actions for the elaboration of entrance examinations in Libras, with a view to expand and improve this service.

The ongoing concern with environmental problems and the fi nity of natural resources arise the need to create special spaces for the maintenance of natural environment and biodiversity conservation - these areas are called Con servation Units (CUs). This study aims to evaluate the potential for the creation of protected areas according to the SNUC in Vitassay and Rosa Pinhal in the municipality of Boituva and was organized in two articles. In a rticle 1 , the areas were evaluated trough the scoring method, where areas were scored in 11 pre - established criteria. These criteria were analyzed through phytosociological study, rapid ecological assessment and landscape analisys . The score was summed and converted to a scale from 0 to 100 . Fragment 1 (Vitassay) scored 53,48 and Rosa Pinhal scored 76,74 points in 100 possible. The conclusion was that Vitassay can become an "Area of ecological interest" , a sustainable use conservation unit, and Ro sa Pinhal may be settled to an i ntegral p rotection conse rvation unit such as " Natural Municipal Park" . In article 2 w as conducted a phyt osociological analysis trhough plots method. 12 plots of 10x10m w ere demarcated in each of the fragments, distributed in two blocks containing six parcels each, forming a set of 20x30m , measuring 600m² in each of the four areas, 1200m² in Rosa Pinhal and other 1200m² in Vitassay, totaling an area of 2400m² sampled vegetation. The calculations were made using the Fitopac 2.1 application. They sampled 365 individuals belonging to 82 spe cies, 171 individuals and 46 species in the area Rosa Pinhal, and 1 94 individuals and 4 8 species in Vitassay area. The Shannon diversity index (H ') was 3.473 in Rosa Pinhal and 3 . 463 in Vitassay. In Rosa Pinhal the ten species with higher cover values (IV C) totaled 64.5% of the total IVC and , in Vitassay , summed 70.23% of the total IVC. Related to the successional groups in Rosa Pinhal area only 17.3% (8 species) species are pioneers and 67.3% (31 species) not pioneers. In Vitassay 34% (16 species) are pio nner and, 59.5% (28 species) are not pioneer s . Four endangered species were found in Rosa Pinhal and three in Vitassay. The results and analysis allowed the construction of a diagnosis of Vitassay and Rosa Pinhal fragments in the municipality of Boituva an d it was found that both areas have characteristics that favor conservation due to the presence of endangered species and diversity found in this fragments.

Among the difficulties present in frames Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are deficits in social skills (SS) and different types of behavior problems (BP). The Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) is a program that takes verbal behavior analysis Skinner and assists in acquiring verbal operant, enabling a functional communication and can facilitate social interactions and reduce competitive behavior problems. Art for the state's definition of interventions in SS and ASD, a systematic review of literature was carried out from 2009 to 2013. The results showed the importance of developing SS in individuals with ASD and the need to develop effective procedures for children with severe ASD, since most of the studies was carried out with mild ASD. Considering the shortcomings of the studies reviewed, the goal of study 02 was to implement and evaluate a teaching program of verbal operant with all phases of PECS for a ten year old with severe ASD, in addition to checking the spread between three environments (clinic, school and home) via a design with multiple baseline characteristics between multiple probes and environments. Prior to the teaching program and the end of each phase of PECS, in all environments, probes were conducted with discrete trial to evaluate the learning of the tasks required in each phase. The teaching program followed the instructions in the manual PECS and operationalization of hits criteria developed by the researcher. The data obtained from the surveys of discrete trial of the tasks of PECS phases were grouped into figures with the child hit percentages at each session. The child had learning criterion for all Phases of PECS and kept 100% accuracy in all phases, including the Follow up except Attributes and Phase VI. After successive polls the child also showed generalization between the three environments. The aim of the study was 03 to assess the effects of this educational program with the PECS in the repertoire of SS and BP participating child. To this end, in addition to the study of the procedure 02, they were conducted preand post-intervention measures with an interview about SS and BP with the mother and child's teacher. In addition to the child's filming in natural situations in all polls conducted during the study 02. These recordings were analyzed in relation to the frequency of SS and BP during the baseline and implementation of the teaching program. The behaviors were classified shot directly taught SS, or verbal operands and SS who were not trained directly to check the side effects of PECS. The interview data of pre and post-test were analyzed for frequency of SS and BP according to the following scales: often, sometimes and never. The results showed gains in SS repertoire and BP reduction in the three environments, especially at home. It was concluded that the child has learned the verbal operant taught by PECS, he learned new classes of social skills and reduced behavioral problems. Limitations will be appointed for each study.

O data warehouse espacial (DWE) é um banco de dados multidimensional integrado e volumoso que armazena dados espaciais e dados convencionais. Já o processamento analítico espacial online (SOLAP) permite consultar o DWE, tanto pela seleção de dados espaciais que satisfazem um relacionamento topológico, quanto pela agregação dos dados espaciais. Deste modo, DWE e SOLAP beneficiam o suporte a tomada de decisão. As aplicações de DWE e SOLAP abordam majoritarimente fenômenos representados por dados espaciais exatos, ou seja, que assumem localizações e fronteiras bem definidas. Contudo, tais aplicações negligenciam dados espaciais afetados por imperfeições, tais como a vagueza espacial, a qual interfere na identificação precisa de um objeto e de seus vizinhos. Um objeto espacial vago não tem sua fronteira ou seu interior precisamente definidos. Além disso, é composto por partes que certamente pertencem a ele e partes que possivelmente pertencem a ele. Apesar de inúmeros fenômenos do mundo real serem caracterizados pela vagueza espacial, na literatura consultada não se identificaram trabalhos que considerassem a vagueza espacial no projeto de DWE e nem para consultar o DWE. Tal limitação motivou a elaboração desta tese de doutorado, a qual introduz os conceitos de DWE vago e de SOLAP vago. Um DWE vago é um DWE que armazena dados espaciais vagos, enquanto que SOLAP vago provê os meios para consultar o DWE vago. Nesta tese, o projeto de DWE vago é abordado e as principais contribuições providas são: (i) o modelo conceitual VSCube que viabiliza a criação de um cubos de dados multidimensional para representar o esquema conceitual de um DWE vago; (ii) o modelo conceitual VSMultiDim que permite criar um diagrama para representar o esquema conceitual de um DWE vago; (iii) diretrizes para o projeto lógico do DWE vago e de suas restrições de integridade, e para estender a linguagem SQL visando processar as consultas de SOLAP vago no DWE vago; e (iv) o índice VSB-index que aprimora o desempenho do processamento de consultas no DWE vago. A aplicabilidade dessas contribuições é demonstrada em dois estudos de caso no domínio da agricultura, por meio da criação de esquemas conceituais de DWE vago, da transformação dos esquemas conceituais em esquemas lógicos de DWE vago, e do processamento de consultas envolvendo as regiões vagas do DWE vago.

The investor, that negotiate assets, is subject to economic risks of any negotiation because there is no certainty regarding the appreciation or depreciation of an asset. Here comes the futures market, where contracts can be negotiated in order to protect (hedge) the risk of excessive losses or gains, making the purchase or sale assets, fair for both sides. The goal of this work consist in study Lévy pure-jump process with finite activity, also known as compound Poisson process, and its applications. Discovered by the French mathematician Paul Pierre Lévy, the Lévy processes admits jumps in paths, which is often observed in financial markets. We will define a hedging strategy for a market model with compound Poisson process using mean-variance hedging and dynamic programming.

The teaching approach based on the STS perspective (Science-Technology-Society) has received highlights in publications in the area of education, because it helps the formation of critical thinking. This research aims to be innovative, in the way that it portrays a reflective practice within the STS perspective, combined with Mathematics contents, stemming from the theme "Energy and the International Year of Light". The choice of this theme occurred due to its relevance and by its potential to increase the interest and motivation of the students. The objective of this study was therefore to analyze the actions and reflections of a teacher approaching Mathematics in STS perspective and reflective teaching. It was planned and executed a teaching sequence with two classes of the 9th year in a regular school in the state of São Paulo. The record of each step of the didactic sequence performed and the writings of records of the persons involved - teacher, speaker and students - were analyzed in a qualitative way, in order to identify the relevance of teacher´s actions and reflections. The planning and execution of the activities with the differentiated teaching strategies favored the active participation of the students as well as the interaction between them and the teacher. In this respect, the teacher developed her actions of teaching with creativity and criticality, according to the assumptions of STS approach, with positive repercussion in the pedagogical practice. When the teacher analyzed her own teaching practice, she exposed the school reality in the educational context that she lived, considering her anxieties, uncertainties, as well as enthusiasm. These feelings were unveiled by her posture through action-reflection-action processes that caused a review of her own practice and the search to overcome her pedagogical and individualistic illusions of teaching, although we recognize that any change is not an easy action. It is procedural, it requires determination and the wish for challenge. In this sense, the reflections promoted in this work aim to contribute to the initial and continuing formation of teachers who intend to work under this teaching approach. Therefore provoke discussion in the teaching and learning process in the current situation.

Considering the DCN a major public policy for training the Psychologist in health, and structuring the curriculum, this study aimed to analyze the pedagogical projects of undergraduate courses in Psychology of public higher education institutions in the state of São Paulo by the DCN. As methodological course, it was a kind of interpretative-explanatory study of a qualitative nature. The educational projects of the six study target schools were obtained by means of a documentary collection, and subsequently were treated through a documentary analysis. From an agreement between researchers from the Post-Graduation Program in the UFSCar Clinic Management was built a matrix as a methodological tool containing two axes: Curricular Axis and Professional Profile Axis and, from these, the analysis categories were defined: C1-Curricular organization: most courses are organized according to the rules of DCN, however, traditional curriculum models are still present; C2- Learning conceptions: more than half of the courses guided their curricula in teachinglearning process proposed by the DCN, and some of these still have more innovative experiences. Other courses present traditional learning conceptions and distant from the DCN; C3- Student assessment procedures: the student assessment envisaged by the DCN is not well defined, as in the case of half of the courses. P1 General Profile; most courses include somehow the professional profile recommended by DCN; P2- Attention and Health Care: two courses are distant from health care benchmarks and model of care proposed by the DCN, and, two stand out due to their larger focus. P3- Health Management: most of the courses, as well as DCN, don’t have a clear delineation of management processes; P4- Health education: the DCN and the courses do not explicitly show this category, except in one of these. Data analysis shows the similarities and differences of pedagogical projects of the courses by DCN about the categories, as well as their intentions. The results indicate the current state of the curricula and training of Psychology for health, and the need for changes both in DCN as in the courses curricular development and reform.

The use of semiconductors for environmental applications and solar photoconversion has been widely explored recently. Due the intensive researches on renewable energy such as the photoelectrochemical H2 evolution from water splitting reaction, the design of new catalysts has been investigated. In this context, tungsten oxide – WO3 – is a promising catalyst for such application, however its conduction band is located at a more positive potential than the potential of water reduction, as a result WO3 does not have the ability to reduce H+ to H2. In the first part, this work deal with the synthesis of WO3 by the oxidant peroxide method, as a promising catalyst for this reaction. Tuning of the band-edge levels for the different synthesized catalysts was verified from Mott Schottky plot, and it represents the effective photoelectrocatalytic water splitting.In the second part, the study of heterostructuring TiO2 with WO3was investigated because of the possibility to mitigate the recombination of electron–hole pairs and therefore obtain more active systems for photocatalytic applications. The synthesis of WO3/TiO2 heterostructures was evaluated by hydrothermal method using three different routes: (I) precursors used as peroxo-complexes; (II) tungsten peroxo-complex and TiO2 pre-formed oxide; (III) pre-formed oxides as building blocks. The results showed by electrochemical characterization demonstrated how the electronic parameters (band edge positions, Fermi level energy and charge migration) affect the photocatalytic activity of heterostructures obtained by the distinct synthetic routes. The as-synthesized materials was investigated toward the photodegradation of organic dye (Rhodamine-B) under visible and UV illumination. The growth mechanism was observed to play a significant role in governing surface and interfacial properties, which has a direct influence on xvi materials photoactivity. The band edge positions for the materials was determined from Mott Schottky plot and the experimentally determined energy diagram is consistent with the formation of a type II heterostructure for WO3/TiO2 and it is well correlated to recent reports in literature. As a result, the photogenerated electrons and holes can be spatially distributed in two different crystalline phases in contact and the charge recombination is inhibited, which is efficient for photocatalytic reactions.Additionally, regarding the energy diagram obtained for the heterostrucutres, it is possible from the thermodynamic aspect the use of those structures as promising candidates for the photoelectrocatalytic water splitting, since the band positions are sufficiently large to overcome the character of this reaction.

Inclusive education allows the presence in the mainstream classroom students with disabilities, disorders and giftedness and talent. For the gifted and talented students are subjects of the educational process, it is important that the teacher knows what's giftedness and talent to identify the students in the classroom and they can be assisted. With this research, it was intended as a general objective to verify if there is indication of gifted students in a 3rd year class and the 4th year of elementary school from two public schools, a total of four investigated classes, applying the tools Observação Direta em Sala de Aula, Lista De Verificação de Identificação de Indicadores de Altas Habilidades/Superdotação, Lista de Verificação de Identificação de Indicadores de Altas Habilidades/Superdotação-Área Artística, and Lista de Verificação de Identificação de Indicadores de Altas Habilidades/Superdotação-Área Corporal Cinestésica. The specific objectives were: To know the gifted and talented students indicated in schools with indexes appointed by (Index of development of basic education (IDEB), namely: a school with the lowest levels ( 3rd and 4th years ) and one with the highest levels ( 3rd and 4th years) at elementary school in a midsized city in the countryside of São Paulo, Brazil and to know the professional profile of the participanting teachers at the research, both in the academic aspect as in their teaching experience as well as theoretical knowledge on the subject of the giftedness and talent. The method was descriptive research. We used a questionnaire to characterize the participating teachers and knowledge on the subject. The results were: School A: (IDEB below) : With the Guia de Observação Direta em Sala de Aula was nominated four students (two of 3rd year and two of 4th year). The LIVIAHSD appointed a student of 3rd year. School B (IDEB above): the Guia de Observação Direta em Sala de Aula indicated nine students (four of 3rd year and five of 4th year). The LIVIAHSD indicated only two students in the 3rd year. The LIVIAHSD-AA and LIVIAHSD-ACC instruments did not indicate any student. The results still showed that: a) the instruments seemed effective to point gifted students; b) LIVIAHSD, LIVIAHSD-AA and LIVIAHSD-ACC didn’t have the same efficiency of the Guia de Observação Direta em Sala de Aula, requiring their completion for comparison and analysis; c) The IDEB schools up and down revealed that there were gifted students, independently the indexes of IDEB, and d) The most of teachers surveyed made explicit about the understanding of the giftedness and talent subject.
