    This work has as the main objective the teaching of Linear Regression contextualized to High School students. For this, it was elaborated a plan of teaching unity which has four class plans. The class plans are structured so that the student, through the data provided by the teacher, uses it to the analysis and the creation of tables and charts, determination of the linear regression line equation and the determination of linear correlation. The content which will be used is the High Scholl Statistics and Related Function. It will be presented three sets of data with diferent situations where the Linear Regression can be used. The first one is from a hospital where the data are the number of calls in one day and the average daily temperature. The second situation is in a company where it analyses the production and the number of worked hours. The third situation is an analysis of systolic pressure of women and their age. Like this, we look to show in three di erent situations the use of the Linear Regression, which can be adapted by the teacher according to the daily life of their students.

    This study investigated the effectiveness of the Kyoto Protocol (KP) in regards to the Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emissions reduction on the first and early second decades of 2000s. It has also taken into account the institutional, such as democracy and property rights levels and development impacts of a countries. Furthermore, it has proposed to analyze the economic performance of Gross Product Value output and the environmental performance concerning the GHG emissions employing a technical efficiency and an environment efficiency measures, respectively. Moreover, it has been proposed to verify the effect of institutional framework on these efficiencies. This study employed a difference in difference model to measure the KP effectiveness and a stochastic frontier analysis to estimate the economic and environmental performances. The results point out an overall low effectiveness of KP. Taking into account different groups of countries with similar characteristics of development or institutional quality, the effectiveness of KP was also low. Countries with low development, low urbanization area covered and high inequality tended to reduce its emissions considering the time difference. Countries with high property rights and democracy level tended to increase the emissions over time. The effect of KP ratification was positive (reduced emissions) for the countries with average institutional and development levels. However, the effect of ratification was negative on the extremes: lowest and highest institutional quality and development levels. The main driver of economic output was capital input and the level of economic output presented a higher share in GHG emissions than the non-renewable energy utilization. The overall economic performance was higher than overall environmental performance. The analysis of the impact of institutional framework on efficiencies suggests mixed results.

    Issues related to the sustainability of productive activities have been the subject of many discussions in various sectors. Agriculture is not excluded from this situation, as resource depletion tends to hamper increased production. In order to meet growing demand, it is essential to adopt technologies and practices that minimize the effects of the farm and also increase productivity in the exploited areas. In this context, the concept of sustainable intensification of production emerges. According to this approach, food security in the future depends on the use of practices and technologies to reconcile increased soil fertility, more efficient use of nutrients and increased food supply. Previous research has sought to identify the factors that may lead to the adoption of sustainable intensification practices (PIS) in agriculture, however, few studies have been devoted to this topic within the olericultura. In view of this reality, the present research sought to identify the determinants of the adoption of practices of sustainable intensification in the olericultura based on a theoretical framework based on the View Based on Resources (VBR) and on the dynamic capabilibities. To do so, a survey was carried out with 213 farmers from the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro, and the data were collected between April and May 2015. The results obtained by the analyzes allowed to identify that the adoption of PIS depends on the strategic choices of the producers in relation to the intended market. However, such choices can only be successful when producers have the necessary production resources, including machinery and equipment, as well as the capabilities built into them. It can also be concluded that the management capabilities stimulated by the strategic choices, from courses and organizational learning, allow a better allocation of resources and the reconfiguration of routines, making possible the adoption of PIS by olericultores.

    The inclusion of students with intellectual deficiency is not only due to enrollment in the regular school system, but also to the guarantee of permanence and effective learning. Given this, there is a direction of actions for the school that can create and organize practices capable of effectively learning the school contents. In this sense, the general objective of the research was to evaluate adaptations in reading and writing content for students with intellectual deficiency in the collaborative perspective, while the specific objectives were: (a) characterize a pedagogical practice implemented by the teacher; (b) verify the profile of class students in reading and writing performance; (c) elaborate and apply a reading and writing intervention proposal based on the collaborative model and (d) check the effectiveness of the intervention proposal. The study included the teacher of the 2nd grade of Elementary School and her students, one of them with an intellectual deficiency report and her mother. The study was characterized as a collaborative research with qualitative focus. For this, a data collection happened in a state public school of the medium-sized city in the interior of the state of São Paulo-SP. To achieve the proposed objectives, the participants answered: (a) a semi-structured interview script for the teacher; (b) School Performance Test - SPT for students; (c) Interview script for the mother; (d) roadmap for an intervention proposal; (e) an intervention proposal evaluation questionnaire. Qualitative analysis was performed through the elaboration of categories, with the data obtained in the analyzes, as well as interviews and quantitative and qualitative analyzes with the data obtained through the School Performance Test – SPT. As for the results, it was found that the teacher encouraged the participation of students in class and that she was aware that the student with intellectual deficiency needed individualized attention, as well as different adaptations in the content worked and the way of teaching. It is still possible that the teacher does not make these adaptations for students with intellectual deficiency, because there is a parallel demand to the other students in the class. School performance in reading and writing skills showed that all students were at the same level, according to the School Performance Test - SPT. Respect for the elaboration of adapted curricular activities, was visible or the involvement of the teacher in all the meetings, as well as the planning of activities for the teaching and learning process of students with intellectual deficiency in the ability for reading and writing. In the evaluation procedure of the intervention proposal, it was noticed the participation of students with intellectual deficiency in classes and activities with greater autonomy and involvement. It was concluded, therefore, that these are recommended actions for in-service training for teachers on how to contemplate their curriculum adaptation planning to support the inclusion of students with intellectual deficiency.

    This research proposes to develop the Sustainable Governance Index (IGS), with concentrated and detailed variables in the processes of elaboration, implementation and management of public policies, under the three levels of the Carlos Matus Governance Triangle - project, governance and capacity; as well as to ensure the involvement of the population in the daily routine of municipal public management. In this way, the IGS serves as an evaluator of public policy processes by governance (public power, private initiative and community), as well as guiding guideline procedures. This is a methodological research that seeks the construction of an index that is capable of evaluating and guiding urban governance. That is, the present research is permeating the constant doubt: "How can we evaluate, monitor, direct, guide and promote urban governance?". The thesis aims at variables of procedures, knowledge, relations and actions, among others, that can influence the success of governance processes, following the principle of democratic management of cities and involving actors in responsibilities and rights, taking advantage of latent synergies. In this, the variables that make up the IGS are selected from the development of the chapters. Firstly, a bibliographical review on the public sphere and governance is carried out, from which the stages of governance and social participation from the most primary to the supposedly more developed, according to the variables that characterize it, are categorized. Then some of the documents that deal with the themes "right to the city" and "environmental balance" are studied: "Cities Charter", "New Urban Agenda" and "Sustainable Development Objectives" (ODS). From this study it was possible to identify common approaches between them. In the same way, the strategies used by public policy observatories as social control of results and means are studied; as well as to motivate municipal management to set public policy agendas to achieve goals and objectives. These strategies are related to the variables of the desired governance stage. Thus, the IGS methodology is designed. The common approaches identified in the documents studied are organized in 5 dimensions; whose cut of the IGS is established in the dimension here titled "Participatory and inclusive governance". The variables that make up the IGS are selected from these approaches related to governance strategies. Of the variables selected, the municipal urban governance evaluation questionnaire was composed of 92 indicators, organized in 27 blocks and 5 axes. Each indicator is a question that composes the questionnaire. In the proposed methodology the system of qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the answers is developed. From then on the IGS is applied in Catanduva, SP, as a case study. In this city the key actors and public and civil managers of public policies are identified, especially those policies geared towards the territorial and environmental physical environment. From the sample size study by the bibliographic recommendation, 68 questionnaires were applied. Parallel to this and still related to the variables of the IGS are analyzed the implementation, change and management flows of some documents - such as the Government Plan of the last two municipal administrations and the Participatory Master Plan of 2006; as well as emerging public policies in the city at the time of the survey. From the results of the application of the IGS questionnaire it was possible to identify intervals of governance excellence from the variables selected for this index and eminent vulnerabilities in the municipal governance processes; especially on the issues surrounding the governance of the system. As well as verifying the fragility of the public policies studied, the insufficiency of social control and the bureaucratization of the participation of the population, among others. In the application of the questionnaire, the lowest results achieved relate to the governance of the system; mainly in the production and dissemination of knowledge. It is expected that the continuous application of the IGS in the cities will assist in the orientation and implementation of the governance processes; but also allows greater transparency and access of society to municipal public management, and is an instrument capable of developing local capacities of technicians and community.

    The education of ethno-racial relations, the focus of this research, provided for the Law 10.639/2003, deals with the teaching of Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture emphasizing the importance of black culture in the formation of Brazilian society, and introducing in the school curriculum the theme of diversity and difference. Based on this, the general objective of this research is to understand how work is articulated with the education of ethno-racial relations, in order to identify practices that reveal the potential of overcoming prejudices and inequalities, in this sphere of social relations, in the curriculum in action in the Elementary School. The study was developed in a school unit of the municipal education system of the city of São Carlos, SP, through an intervention type research in which the researcher was also the teacher of the class. The intervention involved the activities developed during one semester, in 2017, in the class of 2nd year of Elementary School under the responsibility of the teacher-researcher. The activities carried out in the classroom were recorded in audio and registered in field diaries, constituting the data of the research. The research was based on theoretical references related to the intercultural perspective, to ethno-racial relations and to the curriculum. The organization of the data was based on episodes referring to both programmed and spontaneous activities, involving pedagogical practices that had aspects related to the theme in focus. The analysis of data and interlacing with the literature brought important considerations to the teaching practice and, above all, to the pedagogical work on the ethno-racial theme related to the black population in the curriculum in action in the intercultural perspective, which privileges the respect and appreciation of the "other" as well as mutual collaboration. In addition, it has been shown that it is possible to work pedagogically with ethno-racial relations in all curricular components in elementary school - initial years, either in a previously planned or spontaneous way, from situations generated in the curriculum in action. The paper also sought to show some possibilities for rethinking the ways of educating for diversity and reconstructing educational processes geared towards the excluded people, based on the idea that much of what went wrong with the world came from education anchored only in Eurocentric thought, without the due critical eye. Working ethno-racial in the intercultural approach is not to impose ideas or ideals, it is to propose ideas and ideals. It is listening to the voice and not giving the voice. It is giving oneself respect and not imposing respect. It is dialogue and not determination. Finally, to work in the perspective that we defend is: destabilize and reconstruct stereotyped concepts about the black people in our society and show that everything is learned through the act of education, because if we can learn to hate, we can also learn to respect.

    We value ourselves from the hit "Ai, si te tego" (TELÓ et al., 2011), viral because of the insertion in multiple discursive practices (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001), and its translations into the English language and the Spanish language for the test of the theoretical-methodological approach of the Translation Studies (LOW, 2003, 2005; VENUTI, 2000; PYM, 2017) and the Critical Discourse Analysis (see Fairclough, 1989, 2001) in the research on the unfolding and problematization of the issues "sense", "fidelity", "domestication / foreignization" (VENUTI, 2000) and "power relations". The research, which has a qualitative nature and ethnographic basis (CRESEWELL, 2010), had 19 informants distributed in three groups and two other informants contacted at different moments of the progress of the research in confrontation / discussion with the researcher's analysis. From the results: a) the translation proposals sin on the questions of naturalness and meaning (see Low, 2005); b) all the informants accuse the same lexical problems; c) the lexical alternatives proposed by native speakers of the foreign languages ​​and speakers of the English and / or Spanish language as L2 disagree; d) the original and the translation proposals are in line with the maintenance of the hegemonic ideology, which is shown in a more crystalline way in the video clip of the proposal for the English language. Although on a rudimentary level, the approximation between discursive studies and translation studies proves to be productive, thus becoming a call for researchers in the field

    Heavy metals may cause damage to the biota of contaminated environments. The use of multiple endpoints is necessary to better elucidate the mechanisms of toxicity of these compounds. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of cadmium (Cd) and cobalt (Co) on growth, biochemical and photosynthetic parameters of the microalgae Raphidocelis subcapitata, through quantification of carbohydrates, lipid composition, concentration of chlorophyll a (Chl a), maximum (ΦM) and effective quantum yields (Φ’M), efficiency of oxygen evolving complex (OEC) and photochemical and non-photochemical quenchings analysis. To date, this is the first study reporting Co effects in lipid classes of a freshwater Chlorophyceae. After 96 hours of exposure, we found an IC50 of 0.58 and 0.85 µM of Cd and Co, respectively. Both metals led to increase of total lipid content and reduction of efficiency of OEC and of ΦM. Chl a was the most efficient endpoint to detect Cd toxicity, after 96 hours of treatment. In relation to Co, cell density and total lipids content were the most sensitive endpoints, since they were altered in all concentrations. The lipid classes most affected by Cd were wax esters – WE (8-fold increase), and triglycerides – TAG (47% reduction), and Co exposure were sterols – ST (4-fold increase), and acetone mobile polar lipid – AMPL (60% reduction). The use of several endpoints enables to detect differences between the mechanisms of action of each metal, as well as the consequences to microalgae. In addition, the cell-level toxicity assessments carried out in this study based on biochemical parameters and photosynthetic efficiency provided faster responses regarding the damage caused by Cd and Co compared to traditional assessments in ecotoxicology, such as cell density measures, specially with regard to interference of Co in the biochemical composition of the microalgae.

    Anthropogenic activities affect landscapes, biodiversity and ecosystem services. These actions impair animal/plant interactions, mainly involving frugivorous birds. The dispersion played by birds allows plant species to colonize distant areas, increasing the risk of invasion when an exotic species in involved. Exotic species are able to survive and grow, competing with native species resources and may cause changes in plant communities. In this research, we evaluated the potential for invasiveness of the exotic species Schefflera actinophylla (Cheflera), by analyzing bird-fruit interactions, phenophases and fruit offer, and seed germination. The study was carried out from September 2017 to September 2018 in both Carlos Alberto de Souza Park and Quinzinho de Barros Municipal Zoo, in the city of Sorocaba, state of São Paulo. We observed bird species, number and length of visits, number of ingested fruits, feeding behavior and fruit manipulation strategies. We considered the feeding categories of engulf, mash, pick, remove and drop. To estimate the germination percentage, we collected seeds from fruits of the focal trees and from feces of some captive birds. We compared seeds collected from green, immature, mature, fallen and from feces (Mimus saturninus and Turdus rufiventris). High percentage of germination (83.20 ± 8.16%) were observed in all treatments, and no germination for green fruit seeds. Phenophases in different individuals varied from 0 to 25% with the presence of some event. We consider as main potential seed dispersers, Pitangus sulphuratus, Turdus leucomelas and Megarynchus pitangua, with the predominant behavior of engulf the whole fruits (92% of the fruits), together with their frequency of visits (145 visits) and high number of ingested fruits (621 fruits). Feces of M. saturninus and T. rufiventris produced viable seeds, but with a lower percentage of germination. Natural regeneration was observed in the field, possibly from seeds dispersed by birds. Based on seed germination and presence of seedlings in the field, we concluded that Cheflera has a potential to be an invader, and its use in urban design should be avoided.

    The aim of the work was to verify the limit and contributions of the association between Physic and Geosciences in the High School. To this, two Potentially Meaningful Teaching Units (PMTUS) were developed based in either theories (or models): Interdisciplinary Island of Rationality (IIR) of Gerard Fourez and of the David Ausubel's Theory of significant learning. Developed in 2017 for the second year students of a private school in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, the PMTUS were applied from contents of Thermodynamic and Waves. These contents were approached from the study of Climate and Interior Model of the Earth. Preliminary results indicate that the association of Physics and Geosciences can motivate students and give meaning to the contents studied.

    Sugarcane syrup is defined as the product obtained by the concentration of sugarcane juice (Saccharum officinarum L.) or from melted sugarcane. The sugar cane syrup have good acceptance in the Brazilian market and can be used as a sweetener replacing refined sugar, besides containing important minerals. However, the existing specific standards are insufficient to accurately assess the quality of this product. In this context, 15 commercial brands of sugarcane syrup were analyzed based on microbiological properties, moisture, water activity and foreign matter. All brands showed absence of total coliforms and Escherichia coli, while five brands showed contamination by mesophilic bacteria, molds and yeasts. In relation to the count of thermophilic bacteria flat-sour three marks showed contamination, however within the maximum allowed by the legislations. Humidity ranged from 9 to 26.1%, indicating that there was no standardization among the samples analyzed. In relation to water activity, the results ranged from 0.63 to 0.74. The analysis matter strange, conducted under light transmission microscopy, revealed that 14 (93%) brands contained some kind of foreign material, with only one brand (M) meeting the standards. The current national standard (RDC nº. 12/2001) does not contain enough information to analyze the quality of syrup, so an update is necessary to ensure that this product has a quality standard and can be consumed safely.

    This study sought to analyze the impact of the country risk shock on the Brazilian economic cycles post-inflation targeting regime. For this, we used a SOE-RBC model proposed by Schmitt-Grohé and Uribe (2003) modified to estimate parameters by means of Bayesian methods. The results suggest that the country risk shock mainly explains the short-term oscillations of foreign debt and investment and a small part of the short-term oscillations of the capital stock, while the short-term oscillations of the other variables are explained by the productivity shock. In addition, it is considered that a positive shock in the country risk or possible downgrade by a rating agency would have a greater impact on investments and national external debt. When conducting a sensitivity analysis on the external debt impact coefficient on the interest rate, it is found that a lower ratio between net external debt and output mitigates the negative impacts of an increase in country risk, especially in product, investment, hours worked, salary, and capital stock. Given the recent concern to control the trajectory of public debt since Constitutional Amendment n° 95, there is an attention point in the indication of a vicious cycle between the debt increase and the country risk that can be considered in the elaboration of the next Brazilian public and economic policies. However, there is an important trade-off between the possible loss of autonomy and the national sovereignty by the monetary authority when it conforms to the recommendations of evaluating or supranational agencies that need further investigation.

    The sugarcane syrup production is one of the ways to benefit sugarcane and, at the same time, to provide the small rural producer with a safe income source. It is of great importance that the artisanal and cultural product is known intrinsically, aiming its valorization through the improvement of the technological and sensorial qualities. The objective of the study was to obtain information about the physicochemical characteristics, mineral nutrients (ICP-AES), sensorial attributes and labeling of 15 commercial sugarcane syrups, comparing them with the Brazilian legislation regarding the product. The labeling was evaluated according to the legislation in force in Brazil. For the analysis of pH, total acidity, soluble solids, viscosity, moisture, total solids, reducing sugars, ash and instrumental color were found great variations in the contents, showing the variability of the product. On average, the main minerals present in the sugarcane syrup were potassium, magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus with respectively 340, 57, 49 and 48 mg/100g. The sensorial viscosity showed proportional relation to the instrumental viscosity and the soluble solids content. In addition, this work is pioneer in indicating the viscosity in Stokes. The sugarcane syrups with greater purchase intention and preference were the ones of darkest color, more viscous appearance, and texture of little or medium viscosity. All the sugarcane syrups presented in their labels, the denomination, data of origin and validity. They did not present a labeling standard regarding the nutritional table of sugarcane syrup, and 40% of the evaluated brands did not present all the requested information. . There was variation among the physicochemical parameters of sugarcane syrup, mainly regarding to the sugar content reducer. Due to the importance of the labeling for consumer's understanding and conscious purchase, and also the relevance of this information for product valorization.

    Violence is not limited only to the physical aspects; it is also manifested through signs, prejudices, metaphors, etc., by anything that can be interpreted as warning of threat. Knowing this, and the different conceptions about situations of violence, this study had a general goal to analyze the conceptions of elementary school students - 8th and 9th year on situations of violence in the society, at school and in interpersonal relationships. Besides the theoretical contribution and definition of the different types of violence, it was also necessary to carry out an empirical investigation. The empirical research had two stages of approximation: the first corresponded to the contact with the participating school, the elaboration (together with the researchers of Federal University of São Carlos) and the elective course, lasting one semester. The students of the researched school were able to talk about violence issues and produce audiovisual materials (such as videos and photographs). In the second moment, there were three meetings, in the form of focus groups, with six participants to discuss issues of violence in society, school and interpersonal relationships, we used as a trigger element of the meetings three videos produced at the previous moment of the research. Through the review of the students' speeches, we identify their conceptions of violence in three categories: The world around the young students: how violence is perceived; Family and society: situations of violence; and, finally, how the students face situations of school violence. By listening and discussing to their voices and audiovisual productions it was possible to understand how they construct their conceptions and ideas living in a society that has several types of violence. We believe that when the educator has the knowledge of such perceptions, it can help in the school trajectory for the students, having good consequences as students with better social interactions and better school achievements.

    Although in recent years, based on science and politics evidences, we have experienced an important change in the obstetric scenario in Brazil, there is still a gap in care practice, which favors the medicalization of the female body and birth, as well as the inequality of gender and violence against women. The “Projeto Parto Adequado”, supported by the Ministry of Health, which aims to implement improved delivery and childbirth care in private and public hospitals, has been adopted by institutions in order to improve the quality of services, valuing normal childbirth and minimizing negative outcomes for women and infants, as well as providing a satisfactory experience for women. The present study aimed to understand the influence of the Adequate Childbirth Project on the experience of normal birth for women. The Política Nacional de Humanização (PNH) and the Good Practices of Attention to Childbirth and “Boas Práticas de Atencao ao Parto e ao Nascimento”, based on the theory of social representations and as a methodological reference the analysis of thematic content. The data collection took place in a city of the state of Sao Paulo, from January to March 2018 in two stages: in the first one (quantitative part of the research) the “Technique of Free Association of Words with the term “vaginal birth” was applied to 62 pregnant women at their first prenatal hospital visit, and in the second stage (qualitative part), with tracing the deliveries of women in the first stage, 18 puerperal women were individually interviewed with the triggering statement: “Tell me about your experience in maternity”. For the analysis of the material was used, in the first stage the software OpenEvoc and for the second, the software Iramuteq. The analysis of the empirical data allowed to identify that pain, marvelous, recovery, anxiety, desires, love and expectation were part of the central nucleus of the apprehension of women on normal birth and later the experiences were transcribed and treated according to a double criterion of analysis: Lexical Analysis - Word Cloud and 2. Thematic Content Analysis. As the main theme “The Transition of Care Model” and 03 thematic categories: “Surprising model”, “Model that satisfies” and “Model with embarrassments”. Although women have shown an important influence of the Adequate Childbirth Project, women bring notes of still good practices are not completely instituted, as well as demonstrate that they lack to be heard and / or valued. Thus, one realizes that only one policy or one program would not be sufficient to change a reality so concretized. It is necessary to rethink mechanisms that re-signify birth to society, as well as a vocational training path that values gender issues, and a care free of physical and emotional harm.

    This work aims to contribute with research involving large scale research, especially the In-Process Learning Assessment (AAP). With regard to the analysis of this type of document, we present implications of the content of equation of the first degree and linear systems of two equations of the first degree with two variables, from the perspective of the registers of semiotic representation. For the theoretical and methodological course of the research we formulate the following research question: what is the incidence of the criteria of semantic congruence in questions containing first degree equations? The methodological course of this research was qualitative in the documentary modality. In bibliographical terms, our main reference was the contributions of Raymond Duval's theory. In the documentary perspective we present the analysis of the second volume of the Teacher's Book for the 8th year of Elementary School, as well as the analysis of eight questions extracted from AAP editions applied in the period from 2012 to 2018. The results of our research revealed signs in the form necessary attention to the vocabulary appropriate to the algebraic context, as well as the possibility of minimizing non-conserved congruence criteria.

    Debates on the concept of sustainable public procurement have gained more space in public management guidelines, even though most public administration still do not know or do not use these practices. The objective of this work was to verify if the socio-environmental standards of sustainable public procurement according to the Brazilian legislations are being incorporated in governmental biddings. Therefore, a bibliographical review was done on sustainable public procurement in Brazil. The main legislation aimed at regulating the use of this practice was identified, founding the benefits of its use and the obstacles faced by the public administration for its implantation. A methodology was proposed for the identification of socio-environmental standards in public procurement for the sustainable purchase of microcomputers, based on the evaluation of the product life cycle and the pertinent legislation. After the identification of the standards, an analysis was made of how these can be evidenced in an objective manner in the bidding documents. As a result of this methodological proposal, the Matrix of Identification of the Socio-Environmental Standards for the Acquisition of Microcomputers was made. Subsequently, a case study was made to analyze the use of social and environmental standards in bidding documents for the acquisition of microcomputers from two campuses of the University of São Paulo. The growing number of legislations on sustainable public procurement over the years shows the importance of the issue to public agencies. The methodology proposed for the identification of socio-environmental standards in public procurement was effective and could be extended to the acquisition of other goods, provided that it is adapted according to the analysis of the product life cycle and the legislation pertinent to the goods or service that will be purchased. The developed case study showed a low incorporation of socio-environmental standards in USP's bidding documents, but an efficient way of guaranteeing compliance with the legislation relevant to sustainable public procurement is the incorporation of these standards into the fixed information of public notice pre-approved by the university. The request for environmental certifications proved to be an important tool to demonstrate the fulfillment of the socio-environmental standards in the acquisition of microcomputers. Given these results, it is concluded that, in general, there is a significant amount of legislation that requires and supports the use of sustainability standards in public procurement, but these are ignored by the public administration, both by the executing agency of the bidding, and by the oversight body of public accounts. It is hoped that sustainable public procurement will be the rule and not the exception in the near future, where the public administration must act as a protagonist, incorporating standards and good practices of sustainability in its activities and in its bidding documents for goods and services, contributing to changes in society's production and consumption patterns for sustainable development.

    The electronics industry, as a driver of most other sectors, has been gaining prominence in recent years. The opening of trade barriers has made the market more competitive, which is why it requires a new look at quality management in the supply chain (GQCS), which has a systemic approach and aims to improve performance throughout the supply chain. through quality management. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the practices adopted by organizations according to the theory of quality management in the supply chain in the customer-supplier relationship, in particular in an electronic-electric product supplier. From the Systematic Bibliographic Review (RBS), nine main areas related to GQCS have been identified: Communication and partnership; strategy; Quality tools; process management; customer and market focus; supplier relationship management; information and analysis of quality data; management of human resources and innovation, continuous improvement and product design, and according to the main objective of the work was focused on the area of relationship management with suppliers. The data were collected using a semistructured interview conducted in an automotive engine manufacturer and an electronic component supplier, both located in the state of São Paulo, as a main instrument, so it is not possible to generalize the results, but to show the existing relationship . Through the case study carried out, it was possible to identify several present practices, highlighting the measurement and analysis of performance indicators as the main motivator in the search for the improvement of quality in organizations, as well as it was observed that the practices of incentive for improvement the quality of the products received from the suppliers and the joint elaboration of actions and improvement projects require a greater strengthening and incentive by the organizations in order to contribute to the quality improvement in this customer-supplier relationship.

    The textbook is still one of the main resources used by teachers in the classroom. In this sense, the analysis of themes conveyed by these works reveals which conceptions and approaches are considered by authors, publishers, and also by the State, responsible for the National Textbook Program (Programa Nacional do Livro Didático - PNLD). Environmental Education was consolidated as public policy in Brazil and, although it is a diversified field of study, we now perceive that it has been homogenized in reformist discourses of maintenance and social conservation. Environmental Education becomes important, therefore, not only for the discussion about environmental conservation but also for the understanding and transformation of social reality. With the analysis of the Environmental Education theme in Biological textbooks of the 2018 PNLD, we intend to reflect on how these contents are evidenced. In this scenario, we performed descriptive bibliographical research, in which the data were analyzed with a proposal based on the content analysis (CA) of Bardin (2016). The analysis pointed out that the theme is unevenly distributed in the analyzed collections. According to the National Environmental Education Policy (Política Nacional de Educação Ambiental - PNEA), Environmental Education needs to be developed as an integrated, continuous and permanent educational practice. Thus, it is necessary to approach the theme then, in an equal way in the programmatic contents, a fact not observed in the analyzed collections. The analysis also showed that terms referring to Environmental Education are found in all collections, mostly present in the body of the text, which we consider a positive aspect since environmental discussion must occur throughout the development of the theme and not as something parallel and disconnected from the content. In addition, we find that most of the registration units are in the respective collections, in the volumes in which contents related to ecology are approached. With regard to the current studies on Environmental Education, we noticed that the textbooks did not advance much on this subject, giving it the unique and exclusive objective of raising awareness for environmental conservation. In relation to the categorical analysis, the analyzed collections show a conservationist and pragmatic tendency, privileging the transmission of knowledge of ecological systems, with the intention of raising awareness and sensitizing individuals towards a socially responsible behavior.

    Introduction: Coping strategies are techniques used by individuals to adapt to challenging situations and are traditionally classified as problem-focused, emotion-focused, interpersonal coping strategies, or based on spirituality/religiosity. Parents who have children with intellectual disability (ID) experience ambiguous feelings and the coping strategies used by them will indicate the meaning of their experiences. The characterization and understanding of these coping strategies can be useful in clinical interventions and in the planning of public health policies. Aims: This research investigated the coping strategies used by mothers of patients with severe or profound ID during the genetic counseling process. Methodology: This is a clinical-qualitative study carry out with 15 mothers of patients with severe or profound ID, selected by convenience. Data were collected through semi-structured individual interviews. The reports were recorded, transcribed and investigated by the thematic content analysis technique. The results were examined through a comprehensive and interpretative approach. Results: There was a predominance of problem-focused and interpersonal coping strategies that were combined with emotion-focused and spiritual/religious coping strategies. Mothers’ adaptation varied with the stressful events to which they were exposed to and depended on the different degrees of individual tolerance to adverse situations. The higher frequency of problem-focused and interpersonal coping strategies suggested that mothers assessed the situation as likely to be modified and sought institutional and social support to facilitate adaptation to the child's needs and consequently improved their way of life. In general, the religious/spiritual coping strategies were associated with positive outcomes, facilitating the adjustment to the situation. Conclusions: It is necessary to improve external adverse situations by providing adequate support services, especially health services and specific support to the disabled to promote the development of positive coping strategies. Providing orientation on ID and building a comprehensive network of community services and supports are other important factors in coping.
