Sepsis is a subject of significant relevance due to the constant increase in its incidence. It is estimated that around 600,000 new cases occur annually in Brazil and 17 million worldwide. Therefore, it is considered a challenge for public health. To perform the early detection of sepsis, it is essential that the nursing team has knowledge about the content and is competent to identify the clinical manifestations and, consequently, to execute the pertinent interventions. The aim of the research was to develop a digital learning environment using the WebQuest methodology on sepsis and to perform the evaluation of appearance and content with specialist nurses in the area. It is an applied research of technological development with quantitative approach. For the development of WebQuest the following steps were covered: Conception and Planning; Development; Implementation and Evaluation of the WebQuest by the specialist nurses and the Health Surveillance Sector. A total of ten nurses took part in the research, of which eight specialists were distributed in the areas of Sepsis, Patient Safety and Nursing Informatics. And the other two nurses worked in the Health Surveillance Sector of a university hospital located in the interior of the state of São Paulo. WebQuest was evaluated positively in relation to its objectives, content, structure and presentation, activities and relevance, standing out as an effective strategy for the professional qualification in the nursing area. The results obtained from the evaluations of specialists and nurses of the Health Surveillance Sector contributed to assist in the adequacy of WebQuest in order to make it available to the target audience in the future. It is hoped that this material contributes to the development of innovative educational strategies through the use of active methodologies, aiming to provide quality and safety in health care, especially with regard to the topic of sepsis.

Family farming is a social and economic segment of strategic importance for the country, since it ensures an essential part of the Brazilian society's food supply. Recently a set of policies directed to the Brazilian family agriculture was constructed. Among these policies is the so-called institutional food market of family agriculture (PAA and PNAE) also applied to the Ribeira Valley region. In this context, the objective of the research is to analyze the perceptions of key actors regarding these two public policy programs, their relations with ATER and also with their social organizations. It was sought to identify, characterize and describe the main impacts resulting from access to PAA and PNAE. We adopted the qualitative approach from the comprehensive sociology, which guided the construction of the semi-structured interviews and the analysis of the material. The results show that the public policies studied have the potential to positively impact the reality of these farmers, but they present limitations on the reach of the target population (family farmers in the region of the study area), especially due to the lack of information and understanding of the operational the need for qualified technical assistance and improvement in associative and cooperative practices to obtain better results.

Introduction: Hypertension affects a quarter of the Brazilian adult population and is the main risk factor for myocardial infarction, stroke and chronic kidney disease, and has been considered a global health problem. Prospective studies have reported that lowering blood pressure may substantially decrease cardiovascular risks. Although advances in understanding the pathophysiology of hypertension and implementing effective prevention and treatment strategies, hypertension remains one of the major public health problems in the world. It is known that in the blood vessels, light (or photobiomodulation) induces NO release leading to vasodilation. Aims: In renal hypertensive rats (2K-1C), to evaluate the effect of Photobiomodulation (FBM) on blood pressure. Methods: Wistar rats of the Rattus norvegicus, specie were used. In agreed animals, systolic blood pressure (SBP) was determined by the technique of tail plethysmography (NIBP System-ADinstruments) before the surgical procedure and six weeks after this procedure. Hypertensive animals (2K-1C) with SBP greater than or equal to 160 mmHg were used. Subsequently, the hypertensive animals were anesthetized to implant the cannula in the femoral artery in order to evaluate the arterial pressure after acute photobiomodulation in different energies 0.6; 1.8; 3.6; 7.2; 13.8; 28.2; 55.8 and 111.6 Joule. In addition, it was performed vascular reactivity studies and the nitric oxide was quantified. Results: Our results indicate that the acute abdominal application of FBM at 660 nm induced a long-lasting hypotensive effect in hypertensive rats, being this energy effect dependent. The application of FBM in isolated aortic rings induced vasodilation by NO-dependent mechanism. Conclusion: We conclude that photobiomodulation with the red laser (660 nm) at an irradiation in the energy range of 7.2 to 55.8 J presents an effective therapeutic window to reduce SBP, PAD, MAP, HR and induces a hypotensive effect lasting, with loss of effect in higher energy irradiation (111.6 J).

Best management practices consist of technologies of low constructive complexity and low environmental impact, which aim to optimize the infiltration, detention and retention of rainwater, reducing runoff and high investments in hydraulic devices of traditional drainage. For these characteristics, they were used in landscape projects carried out in recent years in green areas in the city of Guarulhos - SP, with the purpose of solving the microdrainage of the projects, of valorizing the utilization of rainwater in the urban environment, as well as bringing improvements in the conditions environmental (soil, microclimate, greater diversity of flora and fauna species) of such areas. The objective of this work is to analyze the implementation of best management practices (BMPs) in 3 (three) projects of green areas of the municipality, from the point of view of hydrological functionality, urban insertion, implementation and maintenance costs, and user appropriation. Based on the PULS method - hydrological model of simulation - urban data collection of the surroundings, visits, photographic records of the place, elaboration of cost sheets and comparison with preexisting data, and interviews to the users of the places of study, results were obtained that demonstrated the potentialities and weaknesses of each BMP project implemented in public areas. In general, the evaluation showed that the BMPs have good acceptance by the user, mainly due to the urban insertion capacity of the projects carried out by the City Hall; that the implantation and maintenance costs of implanted BMPs were, on average, 16.25% lower than those of a possible conventional drainage implantation; and that the proper hydrological functioning of the structures has proved to be fundamental to the appropriation by the user. The work contributes, therefore, to the presentation of relevant aspects of the project of implantation of best management practices in public green areas of the cities, even in areas already consolidated, capable of promoting urban, environmental and, mainly, drainage improvements.

Premix is the main source of micronutrients such as vitamins, probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes, and macro and microminerals in poultry feed, that are included in the ration to improv the digestion of food and the performance of the selected lineage. Therefore, the knowledge of these compounds has great importance in studies on the growth of broilers. Nonlinear models are widely used in these studies, seeking to estimate parameters related to adult weight and growth rate through of methods that consider correlation between the repeated measures in the same chicken and the heterogeneity of the variances of the responses. As individual differences can occur for the weight response of birds, the use of mixed nonlinear models is proposed, allowing the nonlinear function on fixed and random effects, which may solve the problem of explaining variation among these kind of birds. In this work two common alternatives of growth data analysis were used and their results were compared with the approach using the mixed nonlinear model. The non-linear Gompertz model was used to explain the relationship between body weight and age, in broilers fed with feed supplemented with three different brands of premixes available in the market. The measurements of the weighings were collected in seven rounds at baseline and at 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th weeks. There data were obtained from a completely randomized design experiment with three hundred and seventy chickens from the Cobb line, three treatments and seven replicates.

The maize intercropped with green manures, especially Fabaceae provide in addition to soil protection, nutrient recycling, N deposition through biological fixation and control of spontaneous, also contribute to the increase of natural enemies, playing an important pest control insects. Such benefits of green manures are extremely important for organic corn production. With this work proposed to investigate the effects of Crotalaria spectabilis arrangements in the canopy insect community and corn production components grown in a consortium.The experimental design was a randomized block with five replications. Treatments were corn consortia with C. spectabilis: (CL) - C. spectabilis seeded on the same lines of corn; (EC) - C. spectabilis seeded corn rows; (CLE) - C. spectabilis sown in rows and lines of maize and a control (M) - Single corn. For the community canopy insects evaluated the similarities and major components associated with different arrangements C. spectabilis the consortium as well as the severity of damage caused by H. zea and S. frugiperda in maize. To evaluate the agronomic characteristics of corn evaluated were: plant height (m), ear height, dry weight of the stem (MSC), leaves (SPS) and total (MST), number of rows per ear (NFE), number of kernels per row (NGF), Average grain yield and grain hundred, weight (g) and dry matter of C. spectabilis (MSC). CLE consortium was characterized by the presence of predators and parasitoids, and M is mainly characterized by the presence of, phytophagous chewing f. suckers and also by predators. There was no difference between treatments for the damage caused by S. frugiperda on corn and by H. zea. He graduated two similar groups from the community of insects, f guilds. Chewing / f and parasitoids. sucking/predator. We evaluated the agronomic characteristics, corn production components and also the mass of dry matter production and C. spectabilis consortium. The different arrangements of C. spectabilis not affect the productivity of corn grains which averaged 5 t ha-1. However, LC arrangements of plants and reduced output CLE of dry matter of corn stem. The total dry matter in the consortium was on average 3 t ha-1.

The present research focuses on the schooling of people with disabilities, especially the school evaluation of students with intellectual disabilities. The evaluation of school learning aims to diagnose the elements that are contributing and / or hindering learning and help in its improvement. The evaluation actions within the classroom reflect not only in the way of conceiving and applying the evaluation, but also in the schooling of students with and without disabilities. In this direction we must ask ourselves: How are teachers of the regular classroom, Elementary School, performing evaluations of school learning for their students with intellectual disabilities? What does Brazilian academic production reveal to us? The present research had as general objective to make a balance and analysis of the Brazilian academic production on the evaluation of the school learning of students with intellectual deficiency, enrolled in common classroom of the Elementary School. It is a systematic review of literature supported by the methodology of integrative bibliographical research. The results indicate that the number of academic researches that have the evaluation of the learning of students with intellectual disabilities in the regular classroom of Elementary School as an object of research and analysis is small; showed the concomitant occurrence of different conceptions about the intellectual deficiency and evaluation of the learning of these students; that teachers indicate that forms of evaluation are more than documents for the purpose of recording students' performance in the learning of school contents and recognize that the evaluation tools used have an important role. These were the data selected and analyzed by this research and may indicate a transition phase in the way of conceiving intellectual disability in the classroom and how to assess the learning of these students.

The objective of this work was the development of a didactic sequence for the presentation of the set of complex numbers for the students of the third year of High School. The activities carried out prioritized the geometric approach, aiming at the application of operations in geometric transformations of figures (rotation, translation and homotetia), which represents one of the learning situations in the Student Book. These activities were carried out with the intention of minimizing the resistance and disinterest presented, in most cases, by students in relation to the content "Complex Numbers". Preliminary studies were carried out on the history and theory behind the didactic sequence.

Metal complexes containing ligands that present biological activity have been attracting interest in the field of development of new drugs for the treatment of cancer. Lapachol and lawsone are examples of important natural products that exhibit antitumor properties. Thus, in the present work, new ruthenium(II) complexes containing lapachol or lawsone, phosphinic and bipyridine ligands, were synthesized and characterized, in order to obtain potential antitumor agents. Complexes were obtained with the following structural formulas: [Ru(L)(P-P)(bipy)]PF6 and [Ru(L)(P-P)2]PF6, where L = lapachol or lawsone, P-P = dppf = 1,1’-bis(diphenylphosphine)ferrocene, dppe = 1,2’-bis(diphenylphine)ethane, dppm = bis(diphenylphosphine)methane and bipy = 2,2’-bipyridine. The complexes were characterized by the techniques: elemental analysis, conductimetry, absorption spectroscopy in the infrared and in the visible ultraviolet region, cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry, 31P{1H}, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and X-ray diffraction of monocrystal (for the cases in which it was possible to obtain crystals). DNA interaction studies using spectroscopic titration, circular dichroism, agarose gel electrophoresis and fluorescence techniques showed that the complexes interact with the DNA by minor grooves. Analysis of the ability to interact with BSA by fluorescence measurements, allowed to conclude that the complexes exhibit a moderate interaction with the protein, with binding constants in the order of 104 - 105 M. In addition, the interactions occurred spontaneously, as evidenced by the negative values of ΔG°, involving hydrophobic and electrostatic forces. The cytotoxic activity of the complexes was investigated using the tumor cell lines of breast (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7), lung (A549), prostate (DU-145) and non-tumor breast (MCF-10A) and fibroblast of gingiva (FGH). All complexes were active against the evaluated cell lines, presenting IC50 values lower than those obtained for the precursor complexes, free ligands and cisplatin. The complexes [Ru(lap)(dppe)(bipy)]PF6 and [Ru(lap)(dppm)2]PF6 showed to be more selective against breast tumor cells, MDA-MB-231, when compared to results obtained for non-tumor cells, MCF-10A. Therefore, these complexes were selected for the investigation of the possible mechanism of action against the MDA-MB-231 cells. Studies showed that these complexes caused greater changes in the morphology of MDA-MB-231 than in MCF-10A cells. In addition, the complexes showed to be able to act in the colonies formation process, reducing the number and size of the colonies. Cell migration assays have shown that the complexes act inhibiting the cell migration process. Another interesting property observed for the complexes was that they inhibit the formation of tubes in HUVEC cells, with or without FGF-2 growth factor, demonstrating that the complexes are antiangiogenic. Cell cycle analysis of MDA-MB-231 cells showed accumulation of cells in Sub-G1 phase, with a decrease in S phase. Cell accumulation assays showed that the complexes exhibit a greater accumulation in MDA-MB-231 than in non-tumor cells, MCF-10A. The complexes induced cell death by apoptosis, caused depolarization of the membrane potential of mitochondria, and induced ROS formation. In addition, was observed the activation of protective cell signaling through Hsp27, Bad, caspase 3, SAPK/JNK and Smad pathways. Given these results, the oxidative stress is a possible mechanism of cell death for the proposed complexes. The obtained results indicate that ruthenium complexes containing lapachol or lawsone present promising properties for the development of new chemotherapeutics for the treatment of cancer.

The Specialized Educational Assistance is a right established in the Federal Constitution to all students with disabilities, being offered in the Multifunctional Resource Rooms that provide access to services and pedagogical resources and accessibility in schools of the regular network of education. To do so, it is necessary for the schools to provide adequate space for their installation, as well as a specialized teacher for ESA. The present study had as general objective to characterize the teaching performance in multifunctional resource rooms (SRM) of schools of the municipal teaching network of Macapá. Specific objectives were: a) to identify the public that receives specialized educational services in SRMs; b) know the operating conditions and referrals of students to SRMs; c) identify how the teacher organizes his / her teaching work, and d) verify what the teachers think about the school inclusion and implications in the teaching performance. It consisted of a research of qualitative character with exploratory-descriptive character and was realized in Schools of the municipal public network of education in Macapá; having as participants, six (6) teachers who worked in the Specialized Educational Assistance. The schools where the teachers interviewed worked were located in different areas of the city of Macapá, distributed between the North, South, East and West zones, totaling two (2) schools in the South zone, two (2) in the North zone, one ) in the West zone and one (1) in the East zone. The data collection was done through the application of an interview to the teachers who were selected through a lottery. The analyzed data were organized in thematic axes based on the information obtained in the interviews. The results revealed that ESA teachers have a positive conception about inclusion. It was found that a part of multifunctional resource rooms does not have all the necessary resources to attend students, and when they have resources such as games, equipment and computers, they do not work. Students are referred to the specialized educational service by the school secretary and in some situations, the Municipal Education Department, through the Special Education Division, conducts this referral. Participants indicated that the planning of student attendance is done, mostly in partnership with teachers in the regular classroom. As a result, it was also observed that teachers attend a very diversified clientele, which requires adequate training that addresses the demands demanded by the process of school inclusion and that foster student learning, which requires a proposal from the public sector training for these professionals. The data showed the importance of the support of families, the bodies responsible for special education and the school as a whole. It is hoped that this research can contribute with the scientific knowledge and that encourages future works that come to discuss about the Special Education in the municipality of Macapá

Sugarcane vinasse is the main wastewater from the ethanol industry, produced in a proportion of about 12 liters per liter of ethanol. Among alternatives to its disposal, Fertirrigation is commonly used in order to improve soil fertility of crops near the sugarcane producing areas. However, it is currently being questioned due to its effects on the soil and on groundwaters, caused by nutrient lixiviation. An alternative would be the development of slow and/or controlled release systems based on biodegradable polymers, such as pectin and chitosan, using vinasse as the solvent. This could reduce the amount applied and allow the extension of fertirrigation covered area. This study proposed the development of pectin and chitosan particles by ionotropic gelation using vinasse as solvent, intending a possible application in agriculture. Besides the use of vinasse, the incorporation of Desmodesmus subspicatus defatted biomass was considered to enhance nutrient content. The particles were evaluated according to their visual aspects, average diameter, moisture content, pH, solubility in water and CaCl2 0.01 mol L-1, mechanical property, chemical composition, morphology and biodegradation in soil. In general, the particles showed homogeneous matrix and spherical shapes. Pectin/vinasse particles had an average diameter of 2.7 mm, moisture content of 16.0%, pH 3.0, soluble matter of 64 and 48 g 100 g-1 in water and CaCl2 0.01 mol L-1, respectively, and compression force of 31 N. Chitosan/vinasse particles had an average diameter of 1.9 mm, moisture content of 15.2%, pH 6.6, soluble matter 43 and 34 g 100 g-1 in water and 0.01 mol L-1 CaCl2, respectively, and compression force of 62 N. The addition of microalgae biomass did not greatly affect particles properties. However, it increased the concentration of N for pectin particles and the concentration of micronutrients for both particles. The developed materials were able to retain nutrients from vinasse and showed, as solid particles, 65-93% of mineralization after 36 days of contact with soil. According to the Brazilian current legislation, they can be classified as biofertilizers and represent a novel application in agriculture, allowing the recycling of nutrients from vinasse, biopolymers and microalgal biomass to the soil.

In view of the difficulties encountered in the teaching of Combinatorial Analysis in public schools, both the student and the teacher of the High School, the present work has gained form to propose a differentiated approach. The work aims to approach Combinatorial Analysis without the use of formulas, because it has been perceived that Combinatorial Analysis is treated by many as a branch of Mathematics that needs to decorate formulas, mechanizing students' learning. With this, the content is titled as one of the most difficult in Mathematics, so we propose to work only with the Fundamental Principle of Counting (PFC) as a tool of the resolutions of the exercises. We worked on the proposal in practice with a high school room, and we get very good results. We hope that the study will be a material for studies of teachers and students.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a neoplasm that affects the regions of the oral cavity, pharynx and larynx with high incidence, reaching approximately 600 thousand new cases per year. Cases of local recurrence and distant metastases after treatment are common and decrease the rate of overall survival for patients with HNSCC, culminating in increased mortality rates, which have not improved for 40 years. The use of molecular markers, such as microRNAs, has been widely approached by the scientific community as a promising new methodology for tumor detection. This work aimed to the development of a genossensor with microlevels (cantilevers) of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) for analysis and detection of miRNA markers (miR-203 and miR-205) for the study of cervical lymph node metastasis. The genossensor was developed from the functionalisation process, which consists of the chemical modification of the surfaces of the microalvans, so that the complementary tapes of the miRNAs markers are immobilized and subsequently detect their target. Results obtained indicate that the proposed functionalization methodology was efficient, and confirmed the immobilization of the complementary tapes of the miRNAs markers, from the characterization by Fluorescence Microscopy and AFM morphological images. Detection of both miR-203 and miR-205 markers varied according to the different concentrations studied (100, 120, 140 and 160 nM). Through the developed genossensor it was possible to detect the target molecules: for the miR-203 marker, 10 to 72 nm cantilever deflection data were obtained, as well as for the miR-205 marker the deflection data from 10 to 170 nm. The innovative character of this work is contained in the development of a new methodology for the detection of metastasis, which, a priori, uses synthetic samples of HNSCC metastasis markers, but in the future it may be applied to real samples of patients affected by such pathology.

In the past few years, many undergraduate and graduate students from a federal university in the interior of São Paulo state said they used different procedures to study English outside the classroom. In 2015, we proposed students of the 1st year of the Letters Portuguese/English course to write how they had learned English. All the answers showed that they had studied through television series, music, movies, games and the internet. Regarding this, students’ learning strategies (PAIVA, 2005), competences (ALMEIDA FILHO, 2016) and beliefs (BARCELOS, 2004) were investigated. However, we believe that these elements are related to the Spontaneous Competence (ALMEIDA FILHO, 2014). Considering this, we intend to comprehend the characteristics of the productive Spontaneous Competence. This qualitative and exploratory research (SILVEIRA e CÓRDOVA, 2009; SELIGER e SHOHAMY, 1989) was developed with Library and Information Science undergraduate students from a federal university in the state of São Paulo. They answered a questionnaire; they wrote a narrative; they had been observed in their English for Specific Purposes class; and their activities were analyzed. The data showed that different levels/types of motivation, affectivity, informal knowledge, learning strategies, attitudes, actions and other elements contributed to characterize this kind of competence.

Studies focusing on the perspective of attitudes related to aging have pointed out how these can influence social structures and the treatment given to the elderly. This study answered the following objective: To identify and evaluate possible relationships between attitudes of teachers and elementary students - cycle 1, and the students' family members about old age. It is a correlational and comparative research, with quantitative approach. Data collection occurred in six public elementary schools (cycle 1) of a city in the state of São Paulo and was attended by 855 participants, who were divided into three groups: 53 teachers; 403 students aged between seven and eleven and; 399 families of the participating students. The teachers responded to the Neri Scale of Attitudes in relation to old age; the Palmore-Neri-Cachioni Questionnaire on Elderly Knowledge and a structured questionnaire addressed to Education professionals; the children responded to the Todaro Scale of Attitudes Regarding Old Age and a structured questionnaire directed at children; the family members answered the Neri Scale of Attitudes in relation to old age and a structured questionnaire addressed to the family members. Data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA test and two equal proportions, for comparison analyzes and Pearson's correlation test for the correlation analyzes. The participants' discursive responses were analyzed using the Collective Subject Discourse technique. The results did not show significant differences between the attitudes of the three groups, and in all groups there was a predominance of positive attitudes regarding old age. However, it has been shown that the attitudes of parents and children are correlated with each other. As for the teachers' group, the knowledge about aging was understood in this study as a low knowledge about the subject, and did not correlate with attitudes regarding old age. In addition, it was found that in all groups, those who mentioned having good or very good relationships with the elderly obtained more positive scores on the attitudes scales and also, it was observed that teachers and family members presented maintenance regarding the quality of the relationship established with children and adolescents up to the present time. Regarding the old age / aging approach in school, it was verified that although recognized as important, at the same time the theme is poorly focused or not focused, according to the teachers themselves and confirmed by the students' opinions. In addition, a positive correlation was observed between the teachers' attitudes regarding old age and the focus of the theme in the school. It discusses the importance of the quality of intergenerational relationships for positive attitudes towards old age and also about the importance of educational actions to combat age prejudice and attitudes towards old age. It is also pointed out the need to implement educational gerontology in Brazilian public schools and other environments and contexts with the possibility of expanding intergenerational contact and improving the attitudes and knowledge of people regarding old age.

Traditional knowledge, scientific knowledge and the relationship between gender and science are studied in the area of Science, Technology and Society (STS). In this thesis, these themes were united and the traditional knowledge was investigated through the scientific knowledge produced in PhD and master theses, analyzing both the scientific community and the traditional community that were investigated in the studies. This thesis is part of a research agenda initiated in the master's degree and has as contribution to update the information and the advancement of methodological and theoretical instruments on the subject. The objective is to analyze the scientific production of PhD and master theses on the traditional and scientific knowledge. Through a quantitative and qualitative approach and using bibliometric analysis with content analysis, two hundred and sixty (260) theses available in the Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations of the IBICT, defended between the years 2010 and 2015, are analyzed. Information about date of defense, affiliation, authorship, supervision and co-supervision, funding, citation and content are examined. The results show that the number of theses defended by women has increased; most of the defenses were from the University of Brasília, mainly of the Sustainable Development Program; the largest number of defenses was from the subject area of Environmental Sciences; there has been an increase in the number of research theses conducted without funding; field study the approach mostly used; the most frequently investigated group was indigenous people; finally, Environmental / Socio-environmental / Ecological was the most highlighted thematic category in the theses, mainly looking at the relation of the traditional communities with the environment in which they live, demonstrating the insertion of the social aspects of science into scientific productions. In addition, as an important output of this research, a novel methodology that can be used in other bibliometric studies has been developed. The results may help future studies that address traditional knowledge, considering that the books, periodicals and authors that are part of the body of research have been identified.

Este artigo estabelece uma rede de convergências discursivas entre a obra O Alienistade Machado de Assis e outros objetos culturais de diversos formatos e suportes por meio da análise hermenêutico-dialética, objetivando demonstrar uma ênfase constante na representação da ciência, por meio da figura do cientista e dos seus elementos circundantes. O trabalho compara estratégias diversas identificadas nessas obras, embasando-se em teóricos preocupados com o papel da ciência e sua imagem. Observou-se, em relação à obra principal, recorrência de uma imagem negativa, impressa por um comportamento excêntrico, antissocial, e autodestrutivo do cientista.

With main focus to the educational rights established in the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil of 1988 (CRFB / 88), the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (ECA), the Law of Directives and Bases of National Education (LDB / 1996) and the Racial Equality Statute. This is a qualitative research, involving field research with application of questionnaires and documentary analysis. Fifty professionals participated voluntarily in the research, among them teachers, pedagogical coordinators and principals. After the data collection, the data were tabulated in a spreadsheet and categorized. The analysis indicates that there are gaps in the study of legislation, both in the initial and ongoing training of participants. Teachers state they have difficulty understanding and understanding these laws, and most say they do not have the skills or do not know what to do in case of suspected or confirmed maltreatment involving their students. The research also shows the lack of approach to the topic in the HTPCs and the lack of provision of continuing education courses in educational legislation maintained by the Public Power. Thus, we conclude that teachers of the reality investigated need a greater mobilization for the subject and that initiatives are carried out so that it is linked in its daily life. This incentive should be stimulated in the initial training courses and also be fostered in professional teaching experience, based on articulations between the management team and other organs of the Public Power , despite the existence of several laws aimed at guaranteeing the rights of children and adolescents, it is necessary to seek the effectiveness of legal norms in order to be able to defend and guarantee the rights of learners.

Sweet sorghum has been considered an agricultural crop with great potential for the production of bioenergy, recommended for cultivation in sugarcane reform areas to supply raw material for the production of ethanol in the off-season of sugarcane in Brazil. Depending on the bioethanol production system, the entire sweet sorghum plant is harvested, with large exports of nutrients from the agricultural area. Although there is little information in the literature on more specific fertilizer management for sweet sorghum, nitrogen fertilization with 20-40 kg ha-1 of N at sowing and 60-120 kg ha-1 of N in topdressing fertilization is currently recommended. The volatilization of N from urea, the nitrogen fertilizer most used in Brazilian agriculture, is one of the main routes of N loss and one of the main reasons for the low efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers. One of the recommended practices for reducing N losses through volatilization is the incorporation of urea into the soil. Due to the practical difficulty and costs of this operation, some innovative technologies have the possibility of producing stabilized fertilizers, including urea with the additive N- (n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), a urease-inhibiting substance that slows down the rate of urea hydrolysis and reduces N losses through volatilization. The objective of the work was to evaluate the agronomic performance of sweet sorghum fertilized with common urea and with urea with urease inhibitor NBPT for the supply of the recommended N in full dose at sowing or in split doses at sowing and topdressing fertilizations. The experimental design consisted of four randomized blocks, consisting of six treatments: T1 - control (without fertilization); T2 - control (without nitrogen fertilization); T3 - common urea applied at planting; T4 - common urea applied in split application (planting and topdressing); T5 - urea with urease-NBPT inhibitor applied at planting; T6 - urea with urease-NBPT inhibitor applied in split application (planting and topdressing). The plant height, stalk production, dry and fresh matter, panicle mass, stem diameter, number of stems, number of tillers, and the leaf contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S were evaluated. The treatments did not produce significant differences in the biometric and yield parameters and in the leaf contents of macronutrients. The AGRI-001E hybrid of sweet sorghum showed an average of 4.7 m in height and stem diameter of 1.5 cm, with fresh and dry matter yields of 109.2 and 35.1 t ha-1 , respectively. The stalk production was 85.7 t ha-1 and was well above the minimum accepted by the sugarcane industries (50 t ha-1). The leaf contents of N, P, Ca and Mg were considered adequate. There was nutritional deficiency of K and S detected by chemical analysis of plant tissue, with no visible symptoms.

This study originated from the perception that some productions that are linked to Paulo Freire's pedagogical perspective do not appear to be related to their theoretical foundations and their political-pedagogical objectives. From this perception came the problem of this research, which confronts Freirean epistemology with the official Sorocaba curriculum, since the supporting documents claim to be based on Freir-ean foundations, whose episteme is significantly exposed in the works "Pedagogy of the oppressed" (1987) and "Extension or Communication?" (1983), of this author. With this finding, we ask ourselves which are the main epistemological references that support that curriculum, and what implications they cause in the systematization of those documents. For this reason, the general bibliographic review was followed, beginning with the visit to the above quoted author's works, cutting important pas-sages to determine the freirean categories that served as tools for the analysis of the document, and which were compared with excerpts from the works of thinkers of phenomenology and Marxism, mainly with whom Freire demonstrated proximity, in order to detect influences arising from it. The following is a list of the documents that underpin the Sorocaba curriculum: the 2016 Reference Framework, which reflects the theoretical basis of the 2012 Curricular Matrix, which is based on contents and practices that determine the subjects of the serial, to detect if these, claiming to fol-low the work of Freire, are committed to its foundations and political objectives. It should be noted that Freire appropriates primary concepts of existential phenome-nology, from which education derives as a political act, in addition to demonstrating convergence with Marx's thoughts, culminating in the categories of dialogue and political commitment as a humanizing practice; these the knowledge that served as tools of analysis for the documentary stage of the work. As a result, it was found that the Referential Framework brings perspectives and quotes from progressive authors close to the Freirean proposal and even cites them directly, but the content and prac-tical issues of the Curriculum Matrix are based on different political-pedagogical ob-jectives.
