Rapadura is a traditional product made from sugar cane juice (Saccharum officinarum L.). It is very popular in Latin America and the Caribbean, particularly in Haiti, where it is commonly used by the rural population. It is an energy food has a low content of basic nutrients (proteins, fibers and fat). The objective of this work was to aggregate nutritional and sensorial value in artisan shavings, to evaluate the effect of the addition of ingredients in both the nutritional value and the acceptance of the product and comparing with a biscuit that is a delicacy sold in Haiti. Five formulations of artisan rapaduras were analyzed in fiber, fat, protein, moisture, ashes and submitted to sensory analysis preferably in relation to color, aroma, taste, body, overall impression and purchase intention. For the physico-chemical characteristics, the results showed that the enrichment produced rapadura containing higher levels of protein and fat (with peanut, coconut grated and sesame) and a considerable percentage of fiber (with peanuts and sesame). Regarding the sensory characteristics, the means of the judgments for the different samples for each variable remained above the average on a scale of 1 to 9 or of 1 to 5 for purchase intention, regardless the type of ingredients added. Thus, enriched rapadura is a promising alternative as a nutritious delicacy from the family farming, available for populations like in Haiti in which the family farming occupies a prominent place.

Our goal in this research is to analyse Francisco Weffort's politic-intellectual trajectory, as well as his interpretation about Brazil. Our main hypothesis is that Weffort, with his populism theory formulation, built up an ex-ante justification to the Worker's Party formation in 1979. We are also led by another hypothesis, which is fixed in the idea that a radical change in Weffort National History comprehension would have been influenced by his actuation as Secretary-General in the Worker's Party during the 80s. In the first part of his interpretations, especially about the populism theory, there is an understanding which means that for an effective Brazilian democratization process, a rupture with the republican tradition - focused in the Nation construction thematic - would be needed. This reality apprehension, which focused in the criticism of the populism demagogic characteristic, would be the main reason for his commitment in favour of a new workers' political organization. This commitment would not just be able to affirm a classist perspective, but would also disrupt with the conformism and with the typical class conciliation, that in his vision, was descendant from the labour tradition, as well as from the Communist Brazilian Party (PCB). This line of thought, which aimed to break up with national-populist conceptual remarks, improved after the 1964 military coup and became hegemonic in the academic sphere and among the Left not linked to the PCB during the 70s. The process led to an intellectuality expressive fraction to experience the political life and to commit them into the Worker's Party creation. Nevertheless, despite Weffort's winning interpretation, the political practical test would not be so easy for him. After actuating as PT's Secretary-General and coordinating with Lula's Republic Presidential campaign in 1994 he would leave the Party and be in charge of Fernando Henrique Cardoso's Ministry of Culture. Afterwards, Weffort would completely change his interpretation about the nation's reality. From a disruptive republican traditional view, he adopted a position in which he recognized as positive some constitutive tradition elements, which he denied by at the beginning of his interpretations. This new comprehension substantially overpassed his first comprehension about the nation's reality and induced him to reconsider much of his judgments about it. The political and intellectual actors, as well as the history process (the 1930 revolution e.g.), which were hardly criticized during his first interpretations, started to be seen in a positive way and as very important for the state-building process, citizen rights improvement and for the Brazilian's fortification of democracy. In other words, overcoming an essential negative view proposed by the populism theory, Weffort performed a kind of reconciliation with the Brazilian History and with its intellectual traditions, especially with the national-populism.

The Study 1 investigated stimuli equivalence class expansion by two 5years-old visually impaired children. The stimuli were eigth auditory or tactil sets related to three animals: lion /elephant/ monkey. In five sets the stimuli had physical similarities between them and another two were composed by arbitrary stimuli. Conditional discriminations were taught using the matching-to- sample procedure (MTS), followed by equivalence, generalization, maintenance and class expansion tests. The data indicated the formation of three classes with eight stimuli. Study 2 replicated Study 1 with the objective of evaluatingthe formation of equivalence classes of auditory and tactile stimuli by a visually impaired child. Six sets of Study 1 were maintained, two excluded, and a new set with arbitrary stimuli was included. The results replicated the data of the previous study and evidenced the formation of equivalence classes with auditory and tactile stimuli. Study 3 aimed to document the formation of stimulus equivalence classes for infants children with visual impairments. Four sets of conventional stimuli, familiar and unfamiliar, were used, which did not present physical similarities among themselves. The simultaneous MTS procedure was used in attempts to test with tactile stimuli. A 46-month-old child was exposed to teaching and testing arbitrary relations between stimuli. Four sets of conventional stimuli, familiar and unfamiliar were used, which did not present physical similarities among themselves. The simultaneous MTS procedure was used in test’s trials with tactile stimuli. Sorting tests were administered as a secondary measure of class formation. The participant learned the conditional discrimination auditory-tactile and responded consistently to the assessment of the emergence of equivalence relations. Sorting tests confirmed the establishment of relationships between equivalent stimuli, in addition to attesting the maintenance of the classes after the period of twelve months. This work allowed the confirmation and expansion of the findings on equivalence classes in children with visual impairment and allowed that relevant variables in teaching procedures were identified. These data have important implications for the development of teaching technologies for this population.

The contextualization in the teaching of chemistry is indispensable for the comprehension of the expressions of the concepts in the school with the daily life. The research carried out and evaluated the process of teaching learning for the students of the third year of high school of the State School Coselheiro Gavião Peixoto in relation to the concepts on the subject of chemical transformations. What is, therefore, is to provide a more comprehensive approach of a contextualized approach that allows to respond, which learning variables promoted from the study of the productive system of sugar and alcohol. The data collection was based on questionnaires, flowchart, visit to the community, the name of the group of students and the answers of the professor researcher during the development of all the research and the accomplishment of a series of activities a plant. The analysis of the data was performed in a qualitative approach, both the pre-verbal and post-questionnaire questionnaires of a categorical analysis were presented as having been on a course that the students developed the skills and competences necessary for the chemical change of a The physical transformation and the decision-making capacity regarding environmental and social issues in relation to the means of production. The empowerment of students during project activities, especially during the week they promote, school reform, school of activities and learning of teaching-learning.

This thesis deals with some transformations occurred among the Kalapalo, based on an ethnographic study carried out over the last decade in the Aiha village, located in the southeastern portion of the Xingu Indigenous Land. The increased availability of patikula resources (as opposed to what is “of the community”) originated from cash transfer policies and social security benefits, promoted changes in the village’s daily life as so as the peoples’ who live there. Now they have more access to food or industrialized objects, or even travel more frequently to cities. However, although this is a moment when the transformations are very intense, this thesis tries to show how this process finds its roots in the kalapalo way of dealing with alterity. In this case, it is not possible to talk about “generalized predation”, but nor does it mean avoidance of the relationship with the Other. In this sense, I show how the desire category, on the one hand, mobilizes people towards otherness and, on the other hand, contributes to the creation and strengthening of kinship and friendship networks. I conclude with an ethnographic presentation of the uluki, the main exchange ritual in the region. With this presentation, I point out that just as people create relationships among themselves through the circulation of “things”, the same is true for the villages that make up the so-called “xinguan system”, through the rituals.

This paper rescues the historical context of the beginning of child care in Sorocaba and analyzes the process of institutionalization of day care. The research, in its methodological organization, is qualitative and bibliographical, and was carried out from the reading of theses, articles, books and documents referring to the history of day care in the country, with attention to the process in Sorocaba, including federal laws, state and municipal education and childhood. In addition, reinforcing the qualitative aspect, the research was also based on interviews carried out in June and July 2017, with people who worked at the beginning of the day care center in the city, or even before their institutionalization, and who participated directly in the process of inclusion of the nursery in the field of Education immediately after the Federal Constitution, and in the Sorocaba Secretariat of Education in the year 2016. Thus, it is a descriptive bibliographical research, supported by the Oral History methodology. With the main objective of mapping the history of child care in Sorocaba and, secondarily, pointing out and reflecting on the conventions we have about child care. The bibliographical research and the interviews conducted allow us to identify advances achieved by the day care center over the years and the challenges to be faced today.

Bioluminescence, the emission of visible light by living organisms is widely used in biosensors. Firefly luciferases and genes are among the most used reporter gene in bioluminescent biosensors. Firefly luciferases are pH-sensitive, exhibiting a red shifted bioluminescence spectra on the presence of metals, high temperatures and acidic pH, being this last property considered unusual for the most analytical applications. Nowadays most luminescent biosensors to metals and pH are fluorescent, and few of them are ratiometric based on spectral changes. Bioluminescent biosensors despite been less common, have same advantages as low background and does not need UV light irradiation, bring no photodamage to the cell. The aim of this project was: (I) study the applicability of the use of Macrolampis sp2 firefly luciferase and other pH-sensitive luciferases as spectral intracellular ratiometric pH biosensor; (II) apply these pH ratiometric biosensors in mammalian cells to investigate its physiology in real time and (III) developing, by engineering the pH sensor region of Macrolampis sp2 firefly luciferase, a ratiometric biosensor specific to metals. We obtained a relation between the pH and the ratio of the bioluminescence at green and red region of the spectra, allowing estimate ratiometrically the intracellular pH of bacteria and mammalian cells. Besides that, we confirmed its use to cellular image of pH and observed that occurs an alkalinization of the cytosol and nucleus during cell division and apoptosis. We demonstrate the applicability of firefly luciferases, in special the luciferase of Macrolampis sp2, as a ratiometric biosensor to metals and intracellular pH. The existence of a linear relationship between the concentrations of metals like cadmium, mercury and zinc, and the ratio of the bioluminescence at green and red region of the spectra, allowed also estimate ratiometrically, for the first time, concentrations of metals less than 100 μM, enabling the use of firefly luciferases as bioavailability indicator to toxic and potential toxic metals.

The objective of this work is to analyze the teaching and learning process of Geometry in the Mathematics classes of Middle School in the municipal schools of Porto Feliz / SP, by investigating the teaching methodology of Mathematics teachers, if they use teaching instruments such as rulers, compasses and protractors in their teaching practices. The research was motivated by the need of changing the teaching and learning process of Geometry. The theoretical course of the research was based on the review of official documents, books, theses, dissertations and articles by Authors and Teachers that argue and evidence the importance of geometric constructions in the student's formation and in the historical context. The methodological option for this research was quanti-qualitative. In the methodological process of quantitative nature, we developed questionnaires addressed to all the students and teachers from the research scenario, with the purpose of tracing the profiles and investigating the methodology used in teaching-learning Geometry. For the analysis of these data we use the Descriptive Statistics methods, with syntheses presented in the form of graphs and tables. In the methodological process of a qualitative nature, in order to experience the arguments of the theoretical foundation, we developed the weekly geometric lesson project with emphasis on geometric constructions at Coronel Esmédio School, with the students from the 8th Grade Middle School C during the year of 2016. The results of the quantitative research allowed us to trace the profile of students and teachers of the researched environment. We observed the negligence or abandonment of geometric constructions in Mathematics classes and the possible reasons for this sad reality. The performance of the qualitative research allowed us to identify the evolution in participation, concentration and performance of the students, proving the arguments of the theoretical foundation on the benefits of geometric constructions in the teaching and learning process of Geometry. The experiences of the teacher / researcher in the qualitative methodological process, together with the results obtained in the quantitative, made explicit the benefits of the geometric constructions in the student's formation and the need of changing the teaching and learning process of Geometry in the Middle School of Porto Feliz / SP.

This research is based on the hypothesis that the more progressive and detailed constitutions tend to be the result of drafting processes marked by a high level of popular participation. We analyze this relationship based on the 1987-88 drafting process. We present an interpretation on the lobby during the period, proposing an organizational model for the interest groups in the process. We argued that the lobby was translated into the division between two types of interest groups, defined by the product of the relationship between their organizational characteristics and the area of interest in which they were inserted. This dynamic constitutes a theoretical model defined by the tendency of centralization of interests in a single group, which represented, formally or not, all other groups in each area of interest. The model was based on an empirical analysis of the interest groups' performance in the areas of Education and Health Care, whose relationship revealed the occurrence of the organizational model, which we express through network analysis.

The system of pre-sprouted seedlings is a new technology for sugarcane multiplication, which aims to develop materials with a high standard of uniformity and plant health. In this technique, the substrate plays an important role, as a means of supplying water, oxygen and nutrients, decisively influencing the quality of seedlings. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of substrates in the morphological and nutritional characteristics of pre-sprouted seedlings of sugarcane. Mini-stalks of the varieties RB92579, RB966928 and RB867515 were grown in sand, in sand + nutrient solution, and on three commercial substrates (S1, S2 and S3). The experimental design was completely randomized, in a 5x3 factorial scheme, with five replications. At 70 days after planting, height, stem diameter, shoot and root dry matter, Dickson's Quality Index, and use efficiency of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium were assessed. There was a significant interaction between substrates and sugarcane varieties for all variables studied, except for use efficiency of phosphorus and potassium, making it difficult to generalize about which substrate promoted the best development of pre-sprouted seedlings. The RB92579 variety of sugarcane showed the best efficiency in the use of N, P and K. The best efficiency in the use of P and K were obtained in substrates with greater restriction of nutrient supply, indicating that the mini-stalks is important reserve structure in the seedling production phase. The dry root mass was the most suitable parameter to evaluate the quality of pre-sprouted sugarcane seedlings.

Metaprogramming is widely supported by several programming languages. There exist metaprogramming at time of editing, compilation, and execution. In many languages metaprogramming is defined by a protocol that determines in what time and what can be done. Metaprogramming allows a programmer to "participate" in the build process. One of the ways to do this is through meta-objects built by ordinary users that are loaded by the compiler. Meta-objects can make conferences, modifications, and code generation either in the source code or in the Abstract Syntax Tree. However, to use metaprogramming it is necessary to have an in-depth knowledge of the programming language, thus making it tedious and costly to use. On the other hand, we have the visual generation of code. For example, several IDEs support code generation for GUI (Graphical User Interface) in several programming languages although they do not interact directly with the compiler. In this work, we present a plugin for the Eclipse IDE and a Codegs library. Codegs are a special type of compile-time metaobject in Cyan supported by the plugin to the Eclipse IDE, providing visual resources at edit time. The plugin communicates with the compiler through the of Cyan Metaobject Protocol.

Cathepsin L is a lysosomal cysteine protease, that is related to many physiological processes, however overexpression and up- or downregulation may cause several pathologies. Therefore, cathepsin L became an interesting drug target. Peptidyl epoxides and aziridines are reported as potent cathepsin inhibitors.Previously, our research group has synthesized six new epoxi-α-acyloxycarboxamides through one-pot process starting with an organocatalyzed asymmetric epoxidation using catalyst I followed by Passerini reaction. Then, inhibitory assays against cathepsins K, L and V were performed, and the new compounds presented inhibition, mainly against cathepsin L. In order to further evaluate the structure-activity relationship of epoxi-α-acyloxycarboxamides 11 new compounds were synthesized. Among all, LPSN423 exhibited the best inhibitory activity. The mechanistic study showed that LSPN423 is a reversible tight binding uncompetitive inhibitor, which characterized by a high affinity enzyme-inhibitor complex. To further explore the application of 2,3-epoxi-aldehydes in multicomponent reactions, in addition to create a library of compounds to be evaluated against cathepsin L, Ugi reaction were performed sequentially to epoxidation. The 2-step procedure furnished the desired product with yields ranged from 22% to 68%. The new epoxi-α-acylaminocarboxamides were tested against cathepsin L and no significant activity was observed. The organocatalytic aziridination reaction is reported, however some drawbacks are associated with this reaction, such as the use of chlorinated solvents and large excess of base to promote the reaction. Thus, catalyst I allowed the use of the greener solvent mixture ethanol/water and a lower amount of base. Another drawback of this reaction is the unstable product, so to overcome this issue, the one-pot Passerini reaction was performed, right after the completion of the aziridination; the desired products were obtained from moderate to good yields. Preliminary evaluation of the new aziridine peptidomimetics indicates a potential activity of this class of compounds, although further studies are required.

In the political, philosophical and legal aspects, the schooling of children with disabilities, such as blind children, is based on the inclusion paradigm. Considering the particularities in the development and learning of blind children, especially the ones with congenital blindness, the mere provision of certain specific pedagogical resources will not guarantee that their needs are met, which may compromise their process of concept formation at school. That happens because the teacher in a regular classroom will not always have enough support, such as services and resources, suitable for the development of pedagogical practices actually tangible to the blind learner. Thus, since the service of co-teaching has been pointed out in the literature of the area as an alternative to the success of school inclusion, a collaborative action-research case study was conducted. Two studies are ready, with the purpose of implementing in the first one. In Study 1 was implementing, describing and analyzing pedagogical practices that enable students with congenital blindness, in a regular class, to access the curriculum through co-teaching service, in a classroom with two responsables: regular professor who teachs in this class, and a special teacher, this researcher. In the Study 2, the aim was check the knowledge and opinion of the teacher of the regular class about the coensino's service, before and after being provided by this special educator / researcher. The sample was then composed of: a student with congenital blindness - with no other impairments, enrolled in the first cycle of elementary school, his regular classroom teacher and this co-teaching special educator/researcher. The research was developed in the enrollment room and the performance of the participants took place in a 4th year classroom of elementary school, in a municipal public school. Research data were divided into two studies. In Study 1, the Co-teaching service was implemented during a school semester; planning and development of pedagogical practices that enabled the participant to access the curriculum were carried out. A practice from the Sciences curriculum component, with "Solar System" theme, was selected for description and analysis of Study 1; designed by the educators of the regular classroom and the co-teaching special educator/researcher to be initially accessible to the blind student, but planned under the precepts of the Universal Design for Learning (UDL), it was assumed to benefit the other students. The description and analysis of this teaching situation were made through the Protocol for registration and evaluation of curricular pedagogical activities, formulated by this researcher, composed of: Curriculum, Co-teaching, Pedagogical Resource, Measurement and Evaluation. The results of Study 1 showed that the Curriculum had to be adapted and softened to the blind student, but these accommodations, due to the UDL, were extended to all students. Regarding Co-teaching, it was found that the station teaching and teaching team arrangements coexisted, coherent with the student's demands with blindness and this practice. As for the Pedagogical Resource item, concerning both the ones of general and specific use, the participant with blindness showed difficulties in apprehending the concepts, probably due to the mediation strategies carried out, initially through audio description. Finally, regarding the evaluation of the practice, through students "Report of experience", filled out by the end of the class, it was shown that they appreciated the mediations of the concepts relying on the specific pedagogical resources, such as verbal interaction, and revealed the action of his colleagues in the mediation of concepts to the blind student. In Study 2, willing to know teacher Joana’s opinion about co-teaching service, two semi-structured interviews were performed before and after it, which were transcribed and analyzed with the support of the Discursive Textual Analysis technique. From its results, presented and discussed in categories, namely: Knowledge about co-teaching and Characteristics and requirements of co-teaching, it is worth highlighting that the regular classroom educator agreed that, in addition to having expanded her knowledge about the service, she also improved as a teacher and finally became acquainted with and lived school inclusion. In spite of the limitations of the research, since analyzed and discussed only a single pedagogical practice, based on the results obtained, we may infer that this collaborative action-research brought about positive changes in the context and learning process of the students directly and indirectly involved, as well as improved the professional practice of the teacher regarding co-teaching and related subjects in a way that we dare to assume that she started having more favorable social attitudes towards school inclusion.

Throughout history the deaf have fought and still fight for their rights that are guaranteed by law, but despite all legislation, an idea has been created that to include the deaf student just insert it in the classroom of regular education. It is known that in order for inclusion to take place, effective action is needed by the school community and, especially, by teachers. The use of methodological strategies is relevant in the teaching of the deaf because of their need for visuality, since it allows the deaf to create images and mental maps. This research justifies relevant and necessary access to the linguistic goods and knowledge to all deaf subjects using Libras, in compliance with the Accessibility Law n. 10.436 / 02 and Decree n. 5.625 / 05, as well as for bringing an alternative to the teaching of biomes accessible to the deaf, aiming to broaden pedagogical practices for the effective inclusion of deaf students in the regular classroom. With this in mind, this work seeks to investigate the teaching of biology in an accessible way for deaf students, from the analysis of articles that address the teaching of biology for the deaf, focusing on their methodologies. To reflect on the importance of the methodological strategies for deaf students and, finally, to propose a model of didactic material for teaching Biomas in an accessible way for deaf students. For this, a bibliographical review was carried out based on searches in research sites, specific sites and also in a specific magazine of didactic materials. The research evidenced that there are more works on methodological strategies and didactic materials in the teaching of Sciences / Biology for deaf students in research sites than in specific sources of special education and didactic material. Thus, it is imperative to think about education and to reflect on pedagogical practices, especially on the use of strategies for the teaching of the deaf so that they can have access to scientific knowledge, since it is the teacher's duty to seek ways of include the deaf student in the classroom and activities as well as actions that promote teamwork, inclusion and autonomy of the deaf.

Due to the environmental appeal, the shortage of raw material and the chemical complexity of some systems employed at photovoltaic devices, interest has been growing for semiconductors composed of abundant, low toxicity and less costly elements. Among these, the Sb2Se3 has gained attention, because besides having all the mentioned characteristics, it presents good photovoltaic properties. The present work presents the electro-obtaining of Sb2Se3 thin films, as well as the exploratory study of its properties from the effects of the thermal treatment (TT), the electrodeposition parameters and the addition of Fe2+ as a dopant to its photoelectrocatalytic activity in the reduction reaction of H+. The films were prepared by potentiostatic co-electrodeposition on FTO in a bath composed of K(SbO)C4H4O6 and SeO2 in 0.5 mol L-1 Na2SO4/H2SO4 – pH 2.0. After obtaining, they were submitted to different TT conditions under atmosphere of Se(vapor)/N2. Cyclic voltammetries were used to evaluate the electrochemical process of each separate element and the binary system. For the study of the electrodeposition parameters, the concentrations of the Sb and Se precursors (SbO+ and H2SeO3, respectively), the total deposition charge and the type of the supporting electrolyte were evaluated. Finally, the study of the addition of Fe2+ in the bath allowed to evaluate its effect under different concentrations of the dopant. Thus, through the morphological-structural analysis, band-gap and photoelectrocatalytic activity, it was possible to reach the optimized condition of obtaining Sb2Se3 films. Of all the proposed TT conditions, the one submitted to 300 °C for 3 h showed better results, exhibiting good optoelectronic property and photoactivity, with band gap of 1.08 eV and average photocurrent of 168.15 μA cm-2, respectively. With the study of the electrodeposition parameters allowed to reach the following optimized condition: bath with 2.5 mmol L-1 K(SbO)C4H4O6 and 2.0 mmol L-1 SeO2 in 0.5 mol L-1 Na2SO4/H2SO4 – pH 2.0, and deposition total charge of 600 mC, besides of the applied potential of -0.6 V vs. Ag/AgCl/Cl-(sat. KCl). In the doping study, the incorporation of Fe2+ caused low influence on the band gap of the films and on their morphological-structural properties. In the film obtained from the deposition bath composed of 5% Fe, it presented a similar photocurrent to the non-doped film, however, with carrier density in an order of magnitude three times higher, i.e., 1,0 x 10^19 cm-3, showing an important characteristic for a high efficiency and fill factor in the case a photovoltaic device was installed.

Introduction: Children with complex communication needs benefit from rehabilitation programs directed to the orientation and instrumentalization of the user, the family and the school. Objective: To elaborate, implement and analyze the effectiveness of an individualized alternative communication program for children with nonverbal cerebral palsy applied together in three of their daily life contexts: school, residential and clinical. Method: The participants were: 03 children diagnosed with cerebral palsy with their respective interlocutors from the contexts already mentioned: teachers, family members and therapists. The research was carried out at the children's school, at the residence of the participants and at an outpatient school unit linked to a university. To reach the objectives of the research was the design of multiple probes by situations (clinical, home and school) involving 2 phases probing and intervention. The instruments for data collection used were: Protocol of characterization of the participants, Interview script with the interlocutors on the communicative abilities of the child, Protocol for selection of the figures, Road map to analyze the perception of the interlocutors on the implementation of the supplementary communication and / or alternative and Questionnaire of social validity. The data collection and analysis were structured in 5 phases: Phase 1 Initial Survey: Knowledge of the characteristics of the participants and the initial repertoire, Phase 2, 3, 4 Intervention: Theoretical, practical training and preparation of the alternative communication resource and Phase 5 Final Score: Final Score of the acquired skills. Results: The results demonstrated: (1) demand for improvements in the communication of the interlocutors (of the 3 contexts) for failing to recognize the needs and desires of the children needing alternative resources to make this communication meaningful and effective; (2) lack of repertoire of participants' input in relation to alternative communication; (3) that the Multiple Probe Design allowed to carry out a planned intervention, in order to guarantee control of the variables; (4) acquisition of new communicative skills by the children and (5) that from the instrumentalization of the participants the act of "changing a pictographic figure by its corresponding object" took place, which made it possible for the child and the interlocutors to use the alternative communication features with independence, functionality and low level of help. Conclusion: The implementation of an individualized alternative communication program aimed at the interlocutors of children with nonverbal cerebral palsy in three of their development contexts favored the increase of the communicative abilities of these children and promoted changes in the behavior of children in the three contexts (school, clinic and house). Through the results, the research revealed that the Alternative Communication Program was effective in the intervention strategies adopted.

The discussion on monetary policies in the history of economic thought has shaped itself facing political and economic events throughout history. From the quantitative theory of money (QTM) and the Keynesian theory to the policies of inflation targeting and zero interest rates today. This recent interest in zero interest rate policy (ZIRP) or negative interest rate (NIRP) has attracted the attention of economists, academics and policy makers. The present work aims to evaluate and to identify if the reduction of economic growth imposes or not a technical limit for the formulation of policies of interest rates. In addition, it aims to incorporate population variables into the analysis to model possible demographic impacts on interest rates, as populations in most countries are showing lower or even negative population growth rates, shifting demographics of countries towards greater representation of the older population. The possible relationships between the variables will be tested through panel data models, where annual data of interest rates, economic growth, inflation rates and demographic growth/evolution for the period from 1960 to 2015 will be used for a set of countries which adopted zero and/or negative interest rates after the 2008 crisis. The conclusion is that the aging of the population seems to restrict the possible stimulus of monetary policy, generating lower interest rates over time.

The objective of this research is to analyze an intervention in a Sports Curriculum Activity of futsal as well as the application process in test to evaluate the game performance. The research method consisted of strategic action research developed at a state school in São Carlos, for which the researcher carried out an intervention of ten classes that included the application of the TSAP test at the beginning and at the end of this process. The test itself is an effective evaluation method for team sports worked in a teaching unit because it is able to collect data that serves to understand the level of collective and individual game. The training was carried out from the tactical demands of the game based on the pedagogy of team sports. With the application of the intervention we can report that there was on the part of the students a concern with the objectives of the game and questions during the activities and the TSAP helped to see at the end of the intervention the performance of the students.
