Over the last few years, the evolution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has impacted the interaction between people. In Education, significant changes have occurred in student behavior, and traditional teaching-learning processes have not kept pace with these changes. As a consequence, new learning methodologies have emerged, especially Active Learning Methodologies (ALM), where the student is at the center of the teaching-learning process and no longer the teacher, who becomes the tutor. Courses Based on Active Learning Methodologies (CBALM) lack broad computational support, in particular a Learning Management System (LMS) that meets the specifics of the activities of these courses. The Medicine Programme of the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) employs MAA and, since its inception in 2006, the Ubiquitous Computing Group of the Department of Computing (DC) of UFSCar has been developing projects in partnership with the Department of Medicine (DMed) of UFSCar to provide appropriate computational support for this course. These projects leaded to the development of the product Educational and Academic Management Software for Courses Based on Active Learning Methodologies (EAMS-CBALM), which is the result of a partnership between DC/UFSCar, DMed/UFSCar, Teaching and Research Institute of the Sírio-Libanês Hospital, and a software house. According to the 2019 New Media Consortium (NMC) report, Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are considered emerging technologies to be adopted in Education from 2022 onwards. The main objective of this doctoral project was to investigate the use of AR and VR to support CBALM, in particular at the UFSCar Medicine Programme. For that reason, it was proposed an approach and a software architecture, which uses AR and VR, to guide in the development of computational support for CBALM. This architecture must be coupled to the educational institution's LMS, which in the case of the UFSCar Medicine Programme is the EAMS-CBALM. In order to evaluate the proposed approach and architecture, a prototype was developed for the medical care simulation, to be employed in the Simulation Station and Self-Directed Learning activities of the UFSCar Medicine Programme. For this prototype, were implemented a Virtual Patient to dialogue with the student, and a Virtual Assistant (VA), whose algorithm uses Natural Language Processing to intermediate this dialogue. The VA algorithm obtained and accuracy of 86.21%, slightly lower than 89.66% of the service QnA Maker, but higher than 81.55% of the Machine Learning algorithm.

More and more the society has been experiencing a developing process of awareness-raising through its environmental, social and even economic contexts, regarding the products and services used by the population. In this scenario, since the early nineties the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) makes efforts to achieve a self-sustainability and of its surrounding environment. However, despite of the existence of some actions, the role of the higher education system as a player for an effective environmental awareness remains slow. Thus, the concept of continuous improvement takes place, in order to guarantee the continuity of the activities undertaken by the heads of environmental management and sustainability issues at the universities, as well as to encourage an ever-evolving local. The application of this concept represents the main goal of this work, which was focused on the processes of generation and discharge of solid wastes from academic departments of the Exact and Technology Sciences Center (CCET) of UFSCar, at the São Carlos campus. The research is classified as a study of case, with applied nature, and descriptive character. Interviews and questionnaires were applied to the people responsible for generating and discharging solid wastes. The analysis of the obtained data was used to point out an initial scenario of solid wastes occasioned by the studied Academic Center. Furthermore, it was possible to provide an overview of the major features related to the producing sources and the management processes for these materials. Altogether, the identification of significant problematic aspects discussed here leads to need of training programs and new projects to promote new social-environmental believes and proper behavior inside the academic community, in order to make the university an example for environmental matters to its society.

The essential and nonessential heavy metals zinc (Zn) and chromium (Cr), respectively, are found in natural or cultivated areas as contaminants and can cause direct damage to vegetative propagation. A plant species Cucumis sativus L. (cucumber) is cultivated using the grafting technique and, provides the crop with characteristics such as heavy metal stress tolerance. In addition, this species shows that it is widely investigated in scientific reports on physiological effects caused by clinical factors, or that it qualifies as a 'plant-model' in investigative studies. We examined the hypothesis that heavy metals influence the grafting reestablishment in cucumber plants grown in the nutrient solution. From this hypothesis, our objective was to evaluate the reestablishing of the post-grafting plant from the essential and non-essential root availability of heavy metals via nutrient solution. We collected, weekly, data of linear plant growth dimensions and quantified chlorophyll and carotenoids. The controls adopted were used from different availability of Zn and Cr heavy metals in isolation and in combination, and control treatment of heavy metals. We conducted a initial test for methodological adjustments and understanding of plant responses and, subsequently, the main experiments with robust data collection, such as plant growth measurements, gas exchange and enzymatic analyzes that are used in the current scientific paper model. To the initial teste, we performed an analysis of variance (ANOVA) to verify the relationships among the factors studied and the responses. As the ANOVA assumptions were cut from the ShapiroWilk (normality) and Levene (homogeneity of variance) tests. Then, the data means were compared, for example, from the Tukey test. All tests were conducted considering the significance level of α=0.05. Our study can conclude that the grafted cucumber plants showed no post-grafting plant reestablishment even after the application of heavy metals. The plants differed in vegetative growth according to the applied metal concentrations and the control treatment, however this pattern was not observed in relation to chlorophylls and carotenoids, which may be an indicator of full post-grafting plant reestablishment. Thus, we accept the scientific hypothesis by conclude that the essential heavy metal, zinc, and the nonessential, chromium, influence the reestablishment of the graft. In general, we conclude that heavy metals influenced post-grafting plant growth, however the grafting technique can promote a better antioxidant defense system evidenced by the non-alteration of photosynthetic pigments. However, the application of Cr and high doses of Zn affected the plant growth and increased the enzymatic activity of the plants submitted to these treatments.

Esta tesis ha tenido por objetivo, inicialmente, realizar un estudio discursivo acerca de imaginarios de lengua y de cultura en materiales didácticos de portugués como lengua extranjera. A lo largo de la investigación, a partir del relevamiento de datos realizado en instituciones dedicadas a la enseñanza de portugués como lengua extranjera (PLE) en Buenos Aires que recién han sido sometidas a la producción de materiales propios, de nuestra propia experiencia en la producción de materiales para cursos de PLE en la Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar) y de lecturas interdisciplinares asociadas al tema “enseñanza de portugués”, dos desplazamientos se han producido: un foco en el proceso de mediación editorial (SALGADO, 2016b) de los materiales destinados a la enseñanza de portugués como lengua extranjera, de manera a visibilizar su complejidad y coerciones de orden material y simbólica que se imponen en la linealización de los discursos sobre lengua y cultura; y un análisis de matrices discursivas vectorializadas en estos materiales, considerados, de estos modos, como mídiuns (DEBRAY, 1995; 2000), dispositivos históricos que, en la relación que mantienen con instituciones y comunidades productoras de discursos, construyen y estabilizan imaginarios de Brasil y de portugués brasileño. Establecemos como delimitación de la investigación el año de 2017 y materiales didácticos del Centro Cultural Brasil-Argentina (CCBA), de la Casa do Brasil, del Centro Universitario de Idiomas (CUI) y del Laboratorio de Idiomas de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA), cuatro instituciones de tradición en la enseñanza de PLE en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, además de las unidades didácticas digitales producidas para hispanohablantes disponibles en el Portal do Professor de Português Língua Estrangeira (PPPLE), también reunidas en este periodo de tiempo. Para suplir los engranajes institucionales directamente implicados en su producción y circulación, hemos buscado un corpus complementar producido a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas realizadas presencialmente en 2017 con coordinadores y directores de las instituciones que produjeron parte de los materiales. Esta investigación de la relación entre institucionalidades y mídiuns en la enseñanza de portugués brasileño nos ha llevado a investigar en qué medida la noción de comunidad discursiva (BEACCO, 1992), en la relación que establece con conceptos asociados de modo amplio a la identidad, como comunidad de habla (VANIN, 2009; BAGNO, 2017), posicionamiento y ethos discursivo (MAINGUENEAU, 2008a; 2008b; 2008c; 2008d; 2014 [2005]) pueden contribuir con el análisis de aspectos de la pluralidad constitutiva de lo que se entienda por “lengua” y “cultura” en estos materiales. Este estudio, por ello, es sobretodo cualitativo, documental y sincrónico, y propone una reflexión acerca de la relación del material lingüístico con el extralingüístico ocasionada por los medios y los materiales en los que se inscribe, con foco en las prácticas de textualización y en los indicios de la heterogeneidad constitutiva de dispositivos los cuales se supone, tradicionalmente, ser representativos de una identidad “consensuada” de lengua y de país.

Medicines distribution planning in Brazil involves decisions of logistics network configuration, related to the location of distribution centers (DCs) and product flow among facilities. Medicines distribution planning in Brazil faces some challenges, due to medicines have many different characteristics, concerning to physical attributes (weight and volume), demand patterns and high value-added of the products. Other relevant issue is the Tax on Circulation of Goods and Services (ICMS). This tax depends on the value-added of the products and can significantly affect the distribution network planning. The ICMS is a non-cumulative tax, with rates that vary among states and results in a differentiated tax structure along the supply chain. In this work, we proposed an optimization model to support decisions of DCs location and the customer demand allocation to these DCs. We considered transportation costs, products of different values, interstate and intrastate rates and the matching credit (a tax benefit) offered by some Brazilian States. We used real data from a previous study and analyzed the solutions model to understand the relationships between logistics costs and taxation costs for each region/state. The allocation of lower value-added products depends more on logistics costs, while the allocation of higher value-added products is determine by the tax costs. However, a detailed assessment of the relationship between costs demystifies the advantage of tax benefits, especially for products where unit transport costs are higher than ICMS unit costs.

ntroduction: Prostate cancer (PC) is the third most common cancer in the general population, and the second most frequent among men from all over the world. Radical prostatectomy (RP) stands out as a therapeutic option for the localized PC. The main disadvantages of performing the surgery are the occurrence of urinary incontinence (UI) and sexual dysfunction (SD), which significantly impacts the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients. Objective: To compare the HRQOL of Spanish and Brazilian men submitted to RP. Method: Multicentric, quantitative, descriptive, comparative and cross-sectional study conducted in Asturias (Spain) and Minas Gerais (Brazil). This study included patients undergoing RP after the removal of the bladder catheter and less than 24 months postoperatively. Data collection occurred through a socio-demographic, clinical and surgical characterization instrument, as well as two QOL instruments validated in Spain and Brazil, the World Health Organization Quality Life-Bref (WHOQOL-Bref) and the Expanded Prostate Cancer Composite Index (EPIC). Results: 160 prostatectomized Spanish and 165 Brazilians were evaluated. Among the participants in Spain, the averages of the scores of the general scale and of each WHOQOL-brief domain were: general (69.9), physical (80.0), psychological (79.2), social relations (63.1) and environment (88.5). In Brazil, the following averages were found: general (73.6), physical (78.0), psychological (82.2), social relations (68.0) and environment (81.1). In relation to the EPIC domains, the average values of the participants in Spain and Brazil were respectively: urinary (83.6 and 82.0), intestinal (97.0 and 98.7), sexual (31.9 and 38.6) and hormonal (90.9 and 94.5). In Spain, the aspects that most contributed to a better assessment of QOL were financial resources, access to information and opportunities for leisure activity. In Brazil, the factors that most favor a better perception of QOL by the participants were the absence of frequent feelings of bad mood, anxiety and depression, as well as a demonstration of resignation in relation to the decline in sexual function. Conclusions: In this study a better perception of HRQOL was found among Brazilian prostatectomized patients than among the Spanish.

Aim: To assess the teaching process based on simulations as an educational strategy for the measures of prevention and control infections related to health assistance (IRAS). Method: The study was carried out in two stages: 1st Stage is a methodological study for the development and validation of content from two simulated clinical scenarios. The content analysis was carried out by the content validity index (CVI) in regards to the range, clarity and pertinence. The scenarios were forwarded through the Google forms® app link to simulation and IRAS specialists. 2nd Stage was a semi-experimental and cross-sectional study aimed at measuring the simulation results (knowledge, satisfaction, self-confidence), the simulation design, the educational practice and the debriefing experience processes. The data were analyzed using the descriptive statistic and the Generalized Estimating Equation Model-GEE. The study was carried out by nursing graduates of the 5th through the 9th terms of the Federal University of São João Del-rei - Centro-oeste campus. The data collection took place in two occasions: Day 1 - pre-testing (knowledge assessment test) and expositional class with dialogue; Day 2 - Participation in two clinical simulations and fulfilment of the Scale of Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning (SSSL), of the Simulation Design Scale (SDS), of the Educational Practices Questionnaire (EPQ), and of the Debriefing Experience Scale (DES) and post-testing. Results: 1st Stage: The scenarios were developed based on the conceptual components of the National League for Nursing Jeffries Simulation Theory and the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and a Learning Standards of Best Practices: Simulation. There were 10 experts in the validation process, and the CVI was ≥ 80%. 2nd Stage: There were 44 students and 28 (63,65) were in intermediate graduation (5th through the 7th terms), while 28 (63,6%) students actively participated in the scenario and 23 (52,3%) students had previous knowledge with simulations. There was no statistical difference in the number of correct answers in knowledge assessment instrument results in the pre-testing and post-testing. The SSSL showed an average of 4,5±0,3the average results of the Satisfaction domain were superior to the average results of the Self-confidence domain. The SDS showed an average of 4,7±0,2. The SDS showed an average of 4,7±0,2 where the items scoring the lowest were the ones that assessed realism. The SDS items that scored the least were the ones that assessed realism. The EPQ showed an average of 4,7+0,2. The DES showed an average of 4,8+0,2The instrument reliability was high (>0,81%).The learners' average score in all the instruments were higher for the ones who had previously participated of a simulation, there was no difference in their average score regarding their participation condition (active or observer) and the final graduation period students (8th and 9th terms) scored higher in average for the DES. Conclusion: Simulation-based teaching is an appropriate educational strategy for teaching IRAS prevention and control measures to nursing undergraduates.

This research was carried out through the technique of Single Case Study in a school in the interior of the state of São Paulo. Through a mixed approach, from the perspective of Discursive Textual Analysis and Textual Statistical Analysis, carried out with the aid of NVivo (2017) and IRAMUTEQ (2014) softwares, we sought to verify if the Collective Pedagogical Work Classes (CPWCs) provide (or not) elements for inclusive classes in Natural Science and Mathematics for students with special educational needs (SEN). In this same context, it was evidenced that the demands arising from DE regarding the subjects to be treated in CPWCs generate negative impacts in relation to the school's articularities, as well as in the continuing education of teachers, in a true implementation of a government policy. In addition, it was possible to show that the lack of public resources for the payment of daily fees to DE technicians, to provide training for teachers and Pedagogical Coordinating Teachers (PCTs) in the researched school, has negative impacts in relation to teacher education, making inclusion not fully possible for students with SEN. According to the concept of SEN adopted in this work, the study presented that although it is only a snippet of what happens in the school throughout the year, the perspective for inclusive classes in Natural Sciences and Mathematics for students with SEN is poor. The factors that preclude the mentioned perspectives show, among other elements, the need for changes in the spatial accessibility structures and the comprehension about what students with SEN are, commonly treated as if they were target of Special Education. Moreover, it was possible to infer that the non-collective construction of the school's Political Pedagogical Project (PPP) has implications that do not corroborate the inclusion of students with SEN. Likewise, the large number of students in each class, the attitudinal barriers brought by some teachers, and the mismanagement of financial resources available to the school make the process of inclusion for students with SEN in nature science and mathematics classes prone to failure.

This doctoral dissertation was written in the form of manuscripts for publication and it is composed by a summary of the dissertation with less technical language, a theoretical essay and three experiments. In the essay, a review of behavior-analytic perspectives on prejudice was carried out and then, a critical analysis, pointing research questions with the aim of demonstrating the field’s contributions as well as highlighting paths for studying it. In the three experiments, children aged from 8 to 10, who related faces of White individuals with a positive symbol and/or faces of Black individuals with a negative symbol were recruited and trained to relate, indirectly, Black faces with the positive symbol, using the matching-to-sample procedure on Studies 1 and 2 and a respondent-type training procedure on Study 3. The aims were: to evaluate the formation and maintenance of equivalence classes on Study 1; to check the effectiveness of different training and testing parameters (mixed training of baseline relations, symmetry tests after training each baseline relation, and feedback reduction training before testing for equivalence) on the formation and maintenance of equivalence classes between a positive symbol and faces of Black people on Study 2; and to evaluate the effectiveness of a respondent-type training procedure on the formation of equivalence classes between a positive symbol and faces of Black individuals. In Study 1, 10 of 12 participants recruited formed the classes, that is, start relating the Black faces with the positive symbol after training. These results were maintained for 50 to 75% of participants six weeks after being initially tested for equivalence. Additionally, the number of selections of Black faces given the negative symbol was greatly reduced, from 61 times on pretest to four on posttest. On Study 2, 33 of 46 participants recruited formed the classes. From these, 75 to 81% participants maintained at least one of the equivalence relations on the maintenance test. More participants: a) formed the classes when the symmetry tests were used, and b) maintained those performances when the feedback reduction training was employed. Only six participants from the 12 recruited on Study 3 formed the classes after being exposed to a respondent-type training procedure. Taking into account the results from the three experiments, we suggest the use of all three parameters abovementioned with the matching-to-sample procedure for better results of equivalence class formation and maintenance. Finally, we highlight the scientific and social relevance of these studies and the possibilities of using these findings on future applications.

Introduction: The necessity of increasing resources and care support networks to attend the elderly population becomes emergent every year, due to the accelerated growth of the elderly in Brazil. Chronical diseases, functional limitations, increased longevity and the failure of families to offer appropriate support are present in population ageing. At some point in the old age, the necessity of daily care is real. Family is the first to offer this care, as well as some community spaces that give the support and care based on public policy, among which the Long-Term Care Institutions for Elders (ILPI) and the Senior Day Care Centers (CDI). Objective: Verify the comprehension of the managers of the ILPI that also have CDI in two towns (Araraquara and São Carlos) of the state of São Paulo, about the typology of these services. Methodology: This research is exploratory, descriptive and qualitative and quantitive study. It was carried out in the ILPI of São Carlos and Araraquara. Part of the data were collected on a database of the research group involved, followed by the application of a semi structured questionnaire with the managers of the ILPI that also have CDI services. A simple statistical analysis, descriptive, by means of frequency and percentage, as well as the construction of categorical variables through the content analysis was applied as well as the ethical care. Results: There are 26 ILPI, 21 private and 5 philanthropic. They have 833 vacancies, of which 712 are occupied, mostly by women (68%). The routine is determined by activities in the area of feeding, personal care and medication control. Among the 26 ILPI, 16 offered CDI services. Their managers are 11 women and 5 men, 44 years old on average and connected to the ILPI for 2.6 years. Of these, 11 have higher education with a predominance of nursing degrees (5) and business administration (4). Four managers pointed out that the services should have distinct planning, even though the 16 ILPI use the same structure, routine and staff. Conclusion: The managers' vision about the typology of the services seems to be mistaken, performing it without specific technical standards.

Introduction: Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) may have difficulties in the use of oral communication and may benefit from teaching programs focused on this ability. The literature has pointed benefits to the use of The Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) better known as the Figure Exchange Communication System for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Objective: To analyze the effects of condensed application of the first three phases of PECS on the emergence of new picture exchange responses in autism spectrum disorder in a natural context. Method: Participated in this study a child with speechless ASD, aged six years. The survey was conducted at the participating child's home. The following data collection instruments were used: Interview script to identify the participant's favorite items; Test to evaluate preference, Session registration protocol. The ABA design was used among participants with the baseline, teaching (intervention) and baseline step. Results: The results showed that at baseline the child's performance was null, that is, she had no knowledge of the use of PECs. After the implementation of the teaching / intervention, despite some partial and / or total physical aids, the child was able to exchange pictures for the desired food. Conclusion: The strategies of condensing the three phases of the PECS adopted viable in the home context and provided for the child and their communication partners effective learning about the use of alternative communication.

Agriculture is one of the main processes that change natural landscapes with new configurations. These new landscapes can be formed by forest fragments and mosaics of different land uses, such as agricultural crops. These transformations have consequences for biodiversity, not only at taxonomic per se, but also at functional diversity, which may have implications for ecosystem services provision. With this knowledge, my thesis aims to elucidate as different consequences of bird taxonomic and functional diversity in relation to different land uses in vineyards in southeastern Brazil. As well, the provision of ecosystem services performed by birds and bats in crops. Thus, I approach in my first chapter the influence of landscape on a gradient of heterogeneity and forest cover on bird diversity. My results show that heterogeneity landscapes explained the variation in three metrics of functional diversity, but it is not related to taxonomic diversity. Avian communities in vineyards landscapes suffer by environmental filter. However, in heterogeneous landscapes, these same communities can be structured by limiting similarity processes. In the second chapter, I used the same landscape gradient influence in pest control and how it affects crop yield. Using fishnets for predators exclusions, my results showed that birds and bats can control arthropods in vineyards, they can reduce leaf damage and result in higher agricultural production, estimated at ~USD 2.300 per ha. These results can be able to assist management agricultural areas by encouraging decision-makers and farmers to maintain forested areas or higher heterogeneity within the crops. Finally, these considerations can benefit biodiversity and people in a win-win process.

Gerontology is a science that studies the aging process in the biopsychosocial dimensions of multi and interdisciplinary scope as well as it can contribute to search for new health care practices for the elderly in Brazilian society. However, there are few professionals graduated in Gerontology compared to the number of elderly in Brazil. Therefore, in this study, the objective was to identify the challenges of this new profession from the perception of a multidisciplinary Preventive Medicine team. Data acquisition was made from a case study and a semi-structured questionnaire, approaching a qualitative perspective. Atlas-ti Software was used for results analysis, since this tool helps in the systematic organization of data. The analysis of the results showed that there are common and specific challenges in the assistance and management areas, listed as overcoming barriers. Among the common challenges, we can highlight the building of the profession's essential attributions with the team as well as achieving the profession's recognition by meeting the stakeholders expectations in care and management. Regarding the care area, challenges can be presented to clarify their holistic view of the care process and to highlight their ability to insert themselves in other health services. In the management area, the main challenges observed were to highlight the particularities of the gerontologist's performance in managing organizations that serve the elderly, meet the growing demand and diversity of the elderly population, and be prepared to manage larger teams. Finally, the team pointed out the broad performance of the gerontologist in the health area, including activities relevant to their skills and competencies such as developing and executing preventive projects, performing gerontological assessments, dance and memory workshops, monitoring patients, supervise and guide multidisciplinary teams, manage and discuss cases with the team, coordinate continuing education activities, promote quality care, among others.

Initially, this was a research about the “classifications” of beings that our western biology denominate “birds” from the pratical and semiotic perspectives of the Kujubim indigenous peoples (Rondônia) – a group until here, unknown by ethnology in the Lowlands of South America. However, by conducting a six-month field research with this people and acess various native categories through a series of a controlled equivocation and dissonances between scientific and Kujubim categories, what we find and know were not “birds” but “bichos-de-pena”. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to produce a “multispecies etnhography” around the pratices, knowledge and relations of this people with the “bichos-de-pena” and, in this sense, this is also an “ethnography of the relations”. It is relations, as we will see, that are enable Kujubim to “rate” the “bichos-de-pena”. In the people there are no “classification system”, either conditioning categories and define beigs permanently, but before relations (between beings and between categories) that allow them to transit, or, we suggest, “transform” in the world and the Kujubim thought. The “transform” does not have the meaning attributed to metamorphosis, it’s about an aspect where it can be said that everything is (está), and nothing is (é): among the Kujubim, “bichos-de-pena” never are, in fact, in the sense of condition, but always tend to be or are, in the sense of a state: there, nothing is (é), everything is (está) in permanently becoming, everything is transqualitative, everything is, after all and as we suggested, “anti-taxonomic”.

This work aims to discuss the elaboration of an oral history project of sign language translators-interpreters (TILS) and, from the oral narrative, to seek to understand what constitutes this knowledge of those who I will call here the 'first generation'. of translators and interpreters, that is, the group formed by those who, starting the translation and interpretation of Libras/Portuguese between the years 1980 and 2000 in contexts of evangelical communities, later began to act professionally as interpreters of Libras (language Brazilian Sign Language) in the field that was initiated from the various struggles that these same interpreters, in partnership with the deaf community, played in claiming the rights of this community (SILVA, 2012). This project is justified as we are in a historic moment of transition in the constitution of the professional profile of Libras/Portuguese translators-interpreters in Brazil: by legal determination, with the opening of higher training courses in translation and interpretation in Libras/Portuguese , professional translators-interpreters are no longer trained informally in religious communities and are trained in higher education courses at universities. The record of the experience accumulated by the first generation translators/interpreters who work professionally today, already with more than twenty years of experience and with great notoriety among the deaf community, it is an important work to be done, but so far not yet developed. Certainly, the experience narration of this generation of interpreters brings a important contribution to the formation of the new generation of interpreters, because, without memory and without a project, there is no production of knowledge. From the interview granted, we will analyze, based on the procedures of Leite (2004) in their work with oral history, the system of knowledge, assumptions and beliefs that interpreter trainers have in relation to the training of new interpreters and the skills necessary to work in this field of professional activity. This is a qualitative research with a case study through a semi-structured interview, we interviewed a professional interpreter from a Federal University that brought the following result: we observed through the interviewee's speech the importance of bringing the interpreter closer to the context in which he intends to act, since direct experience with the performance space and the exchanges that are established in it are important elements in training practices.

The Orthocentrinae is one of the least studied subfamilies among the Ichneumonidae, although they have a cosmopolitan distribution and comprise about 30% of the Ichneumonidae collected in Malaise traps, indicating that they are abundant and diverse. Because they are poorly studied, especially in the Neotropical region, the group has many taxonomic problems and has already gone through many classifications and synonyms. Very little is known about their biology, but all reliable sources report parasitism of fungus gnats, fungivorous dipterans responsible for damaging plant roots and spreading pathogenic fungi. Currently, Orthocentrinae have 478 described species in 29 genera, of which only 55 species from 14 genera occure ate the Neotropics and 4 species of 3 genera occure at Brazil, there is no organized key to the identification of such generes. This work sought to know the fauna of this subfamily in high altitude environments, at Reserva Privada do Patrimônio Cultural de Itamonte, MG, Reserva Biológica da Serra do Japi, SP, Parque Nacional da Serra da Bocaina, SP, Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, RJ, through insect sampling using sweeping net, light, Malaise and Moericke traps, with the intention of understanding its composition, providing subsidies for the management and conservation of these threatened areas. The objective was also to improve the knowleged of group classification and to identify new species using molecular tools. Besides that, we sought to understand which collection methods are most effective for the subfamily, the distribution patterns and the possibility of endemism, and to develop a key to the genera found. 130 species molercularly identified in 12 genera were found, of which 21 new species of the genera Megastylus, Gnathochorisis, Proclitus, Eusterinx and Pantisarthrus were described. The genera Plectiscus, Picrsotigeus and Pantisarthrus are first reported in the Neotropical region, while Stenomacrus, Batakomacrus, Megastylus, Gnathochorisis, Proclitus, Eusterinx, Symplecis and the species Gnathochorisis khalaimi, Humala, 2017, are reported for the first time to Brazil. A key for all described species of the genus Pantisarthrus was developed, as well as a key for the genera found in the work. The group has a wide distribution among the different altitudinal gradients, some species showed to occur in all studied altitudes, but some others indicated endemism at altitudes above 1900 m. The Moericke Trap proved to be the most effective collected method.

Brazil being a slave country, where black women have been subjected to violence and unequal treatment that permeates society to this day. In this sense, in search of means of survival and fight against racial prejudice and discrimination, one sees in education an alternative for the valorization of African, AfroBrazilian and indigenous culture, drawn in the historical, social and anthropological dimensions of the reality of the country, such as as the need for a reeducation based on ancestral memories and inheritance. Understanding the need for thematic approaches to Race Relations and Gender in the school environment, cultural and community spaces with children and adolescents, based on social, political, economic, cultural, among others, education is important in the context of an egalitarian and in the critical formation of these subjects. With the urgency of approaching the references and the protagonism of black women, such as their powers and intellectualities, this work refers to the narrative of a black woman as a student of Biological Sciences dialoguing with other black intellectuals seeking to identify solutions and perspectives for women black society, education, and education, as well as their contributions to the anti-racist, sexist, and gender equity struggle.

This research aimed to identify and analyze the proposals for pedagogical projects of Bilingual Pedagogy Courses offered in Brazil, in order to identify the professional expected to work in the school environment and the types of work space made possible by the training . The research is characterized as a qualitative descriptive document, making use of search resources on websites, documents and bibliographic survey. In our country there are three courses: at the National Institute of Education for the Deaf (INES), at the Federal Institute of Goiás – Aparecida de Goiânia Campus and at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Santa Catarina – Palhoça Campus. From the reading and analysis of the Pedagogical Political Projects, it was possible to identify some relevant points, such as the priority for the admission of deaf people in some courses, as well as the offer of proof in Libras, and the type of training, broader or restricted depending on the course. The results indicate the need for broader discussions about the desired professional, giving space to the deaf subject so that he can be an educator with his peers. We hope, with this study, to contribute to discussions in the area and promote reflection on investments in courses such as these.

This study aims to investigate the opinion of undergraduates, who are studying Libras at a Federal University in the interior of the state of São Paulo, expect this as a contribution to future education in deaf education. Based on research conducted in the field of deafness and recent legislation, we developed a quantitative and qualitative descriptive field research that, through the application of questionnaires to 54 undergraduate students, raised important aspects about the implementation of the discipline. The results indicate that due to the reduced workload many students confuse basic concepts related to Libras and deafness, such as the purpose of language learning and the role of Libras interpreter translator in deaf education. We hope, with this investigation, not to let the discussions end and that the offer of the discipline can be rethought to fulfill its role: to promote the inclusion of deaf students.
