    Population aging imposes demands on Brazilian cities in order to look at the needs of human beings from the perspective of old age. The number of elderly people living in urban areas has increased in recent decades. In addition, a good part of this age group is choosing or being led to live alone, a trend that will remain in the coming years, due to the increase in life expectancy and changes in family arrangements. Linked to this reality, human aging occurs in a heterogeneous way, resulting in different profiles of people in this stage of life. Optimizing the Functional Capacity of the elderly has been an important issue in public policies, due to its direct impact on independence and quality of life, providing healthy and active aging. According to this scenario, the adequacy of housing is urgent. Adequate housing is a constitutional right, which is not restricted to a roof and four walls, but highlights the gathering of other aspects, for example the good location, in order to enable the residents to meet their needs. Still, it is essential that housing is accessible, both physically and economically. It is up to the State to intervene through housing policies, to offer quality and safe housing to disadvantaged population groups, such as low-income elderly people. In the state of São Paulo, there are initiatives to respond to this demand. The Vila Dignidade Program has the purpose of offering housing in small villages, suitable according to the precepts of Universal Design, for independent, low-income elderly people who are alone. In this scenario, the objective of the study was to analyze whether the housing conditions of the Vila Dignidade de Araraquara Program reflect on the functional capacity of its beneficiaries. It is a cross-sectional, descriptive, quantitative-qualitative research. Data collection was performed using the Brazilian Oars Multidimensional Functional Assessment Questionnaire (BOMFAQ) instrument and semi-structured interviews to obtain socioeconomic information and residents' perceptions. Data verification was performed through simple descriptive statistical analysis, and for qualitative ones, content analysis was used. The results indicated that the interviewees do not have a severe commitment to carry out daily activities, and that the reported difficulties are mainly related to health conditions and not directly to the built space of the condominium. Regarding the participants' perception of housing in Vila Dignidade, it was noted that the subjective aspects of adequate housing are well attended to in this public policy. However, problems in living conditions have been reported, such as slippery and brittle floors, which can compromise the Functional Capacity of the elderly, in addition to the effectiveness of this housing complex, whose final proposal is to prevent asylum.

    This work makes a comparison between the existing methods for the calculation of minimum reinforcement in isolated rigid footing in reinforced concrete. After comparing results, a proposal for this calculation was presented. It is suggested that the minimum reinforcement should be equal to 7,20% of the maximum reinforcement, besides proposing a simplified equation for calculating the minimum reinforcement. The Brazilian standards NBR 6118: 2014, North American ACI 318-19 and European Eurocode 2, 2004 were analyzed. These bildings codes have no specific formulations for calculating the minimum reinforcement of the structural element footing, therefore was considered information regarding the structural beam element in reinforced concrete.

    Sanitary and environmental conditions are essential to guarantee local development and promote health to the population. Thus, aspects such as the provision of treated water, collection and treatment of sanitary sewage, collection and final destination of solid waste, vector control, reduction of infant mortality and conditions of socioeconomic aspects. This work aimed to adapt the 1999 Environmental Health Indicator (ISA) method published by the São Paulo State Sanitation Council (CONESAN) and to apply Water Resources Management Unit (UGRHI) 13 in municipalities (Tietê Jacaré). The methodology included: a) collection of statistical data by digital platform; b) scraping (data scrapping) of statistical data and creation of a database with the collected information, c) elaboration for adaptations of indicators by 1st and 2nd degree equation, c) calculation of environmental health by the method adapted through of a fork (fork) of the ISA Calculator tool, made in Python. The municipalities selected for adapted ISA were those with less than 50 thousand inhabitants contained in UGRHI 13, which includes 34 municipalities. Thus, 28 municipalities met this criterion. Of these, 21 of them did not present information in the National Sanitation Information System (SNIS). For the remaining 7 municipalities, the adapted ISA calculation indicated that all reached a healthy situation (76

    Known as the “hunger branch” and distinguished by its family farmers, the Southwest of São Paulo state is one of the least developed regions of the state. As part of a long history of poverty and social inequalities, the implantation of the Lagoa do Sino Campus of the Federal University of São Carlos in 2014 has represented an opportunity for the development of the region, being university extension among family farmers one of its pillars. Based on environmental anthropology and aiming to contribute to extensionism in the region, this dissertation brings out elements of productive history, practices, and traditional knowledge of its family farmers. Nine rural families from the municipalities of Angatuba, Buri and Campina do Monte Alegre have participated in this research. The fieldwork was carried out between October 2019 and January 2020, with a total of 27 visits to the properties and 22 people interviewed. The results bring to the light socioeconomic aspects of the region, the transformations in the local landscape, the productive strategies in the past and the present, as well as the traditional practices and knowledge among family farmers. The regional history of poverty and environmental degradation is related to a process of economic development that has always privileged the land property over the small producer. A pendular movement between diversification (1950-1980) and specialization (1980-2019) of productive strategies was also observed, which may shed light on the future of family farming in the region. It was also possible to show that traditional knowledge remains with some degree of complexity, playing a role in the productive strategies and decision-making of families. Its incorporation into extension projects may be one of the keys to the promotion of agriculture in the region as based on social justice, cultural valorization and environmental responsibility.

    The research seeks to survey scientific productions produced from 2009 to 2019 starting with the publication of National Policies for Special Education from the perspective of Inclusive Education. The search took place within the databases of the National Association of Graduate Studies and Research in Education (ANPEd) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), seeking to analyze, reflect and discover which publications relate the learning of Portuguese language by deaf people, as well as discover which publications bring pedagogical practices. In total, ten articles were published from 2009 to 2019. As a result, SciELO found only three publications that briefly contained some pedagogical practice that could contribute to the learning of the second language (as mentioned in Decree 5.626 / 05). In the ANPEd database only one publication. In total, four publications address educational issues. How others emphasize the challenges of inclusion / exclusion. They report the challenges of acquiring Sign Language as a first language and thus structuring for the learning of the Portuguese (written) language. Thus, it is clear that only public policies that guarantee the rights of deaf people are not enough. There must be structures that ensure that the legislation is actually enforced and the rights of deaf people are guaranteed, especially when the acquisition of the Portuguese language in written form is actually implemented.

    Tim Berners-Lee proposed the Semantic Web for better information retrieval. In this context, there are the Linked Data principles through which the data connection on the Web is established which the main objective is to generate meaning to the Web pages. And, by utilizing, this causes with which the software agents and people could cooperate with each other to reach their goals in an efficient manner. The project consists of working with an initiative that is an example of the application of Linked Open Data, which is the Linking Open Data (LOD), which brings data published in linked data format. The research will focus on describing and analyzing the linguistic datasets present in this initiative. From this point, it is incited as a research problem: what is identified in the links and linguistic datasets in the Linking Open Data initiative? Focusing on this problem, the objective is to map the datasets corresponding to the ‘Linguistics’ category inserted in the Linking Open Data initiative. It is an exploratory and qualitative research and of a theoretical-applied nature, addressing as main theme the mapping of linguistic datasets in Linking Open Data. First, a theoretical and practical investigation was carried out on the identification of the linguistic data sets and the technologies used in the connection of these data; after the investigation was directed to the analysis of the Linguistics category of the Linking Open Data initiative. The results obtained show that types of datasets and technologies of the Semantic Web are found in each of the seven categories of linguistic data: Corpora; Lexicons and Dictionaries; Terminologies, Thesauri and Knowledge Bases; Linguistic Resource Metadata; Linguistic Data Categories; Typological Databases; Other. It is concluded that the Linking Open Data initiative satisfactorily fulfills its function, showing the viability of the open data connection, through the prescribed technologies. As for the linguistic data of such an initiative, it is noted that they are extremely relevant and employs the technologies according required in each category.

    Scientific studies and statistical reports show that young people are living the most precarious paths in the world of work. To this population remains the deregulated work, including uberized work. The uberization process is one of the results of the flexible model of production, neoliberal rationality and the technological era. This process implies in the precariousness of the various life areas of the workers involved. The aim of this study was to understand the work reality of young people who perform informal or deregulated activities, as well as aspects related to their insertion and permanence in works of this type. The study followed the precepts of urban ethnography, used participant observation as a posture for insertion in the field as well as instruments for recording information such as field notebooks, questionnaires and audiovisual data. In-depth meetings are also held in this process. The participants were young food delivery working on digital platforms with 18-29 years old,. However, other informal jobs typically performed by young people were also analyzed during the ethnographic process. Data analysis followed the steps: a) Development of indexes; b) Preparation of titles and subtitles; c) Elaboration of the text. The results showed that the precocious, precarious, and destructive living conditions of young people are decisive in their insertion in the most diverse types of unregulated work. The institutions that support work and youth demonstrate many stereotypes about young workers and insufficient knowledge about their real-life situation, executing actions considered to be palliative, focused on professional education and entrepreneurship. It was possible to identify that due to their living and working conditions, uberized young workers experience problematic realities in the health, education and social relations. Thus, it is pointed out that the professions who acts in the field of work should provide an integral interdisciplinary and intersectoral care to these workers. This care should take place through the workers' health network, but also through the devices of education and social assistance, in conjunction with the legal agencies to support work and with representatives of social control, always considering the peculiarities of workers, including their age idiosyncrasies. The results helped to reflect on the need to expand Occupational Therapy practices in the field of work. Given the current situation, it is important that these practices, in addition to considering the real demands of workers in the various sectors and networks, have a political and critical character, in order to enable/facilitate access to information, awareness, social participation and the role of protagonist of these workers in the process of enabling their rights, as well as their collective articulations in favor of better working and living conditions.

    Older adults tend to be underactive, which is a risk factor for chronic non-communicable diseases, which are equally painful for the individual as they are costly to the public health system. Maintaining levels of physical activity throughout life is a motivational challenge. Digital tools have been used to change this pattern, such as smartphone apps to support physical activity; but in-depth research on personalization is lacking to drive sedentary behavior change, considering what end users really want. Objective: To propose the concept and design vision of a new mobile physical activity application (PAUL) used in urban areas. Method: A qualitative focus group study was carried out, involving by prototype co-design; 24 volunteers divided into 2 focus groups from two Brazilian cities: São Carlos - elderly people who are not users of an app for physical activity and Santos (adults over 35, app users). The following procedures were performed: (i) baseline assessments; (ii) a focus group (iii) develop activities with both groups to redesign the Prototype. Data analysis: Thematic content analysis was performed. Results: the development of physical activity applications in urban environments, for people over 35 years old, should consider the following resources: custom-made and customizable application. Younger adults prefer resources such as self-monitoring, goal setting and social influence. Older adults prefer a simple interface, with self-monitoring, goal setting and reminders. This study provided recommendations for translating motivational strategies theoretically embedded in functional elements that can guide the development of health interventions to engage urban residents in an active urban life.

    Post-harvest rot has been responsible for losses by producers, a fact which has limited the commercialization of agricultural products for consumption in natura, fruits and vegetables. The fungus Alternaria alternata is the cause of black rot in post-harvest tomatoes; its control is carried out with fungicides, which contributes to the need for alternatives that present less risk to human health. In that context, yeasts have been studied as biological control agents in fruits. Considering the above, the objective of this research was to determine the potential of the yeasts Trichosporon asahii (3S44) and Torulaspora globosa (5S55) in the control of the fungus A. alternata in tomato fruits. The production of organic compounds volatile (VOCs) was evaluated using closed containers with the inoculated fruit with A. alternata spores, uncovered Petri dishes inoculated with T cells. asahii or T. globosa, and a gauze moistened with sterile distilled water. To the evaluation of yeast survival in the fruit wound, formulations with T. asahii or T.globosa and Tween 80 vehicles, saline, corn starch, colorless gelatin and sodium alginate were inoculated into the tomato wounds, and after 48 hours the portion of the injured region for dilution and plating. The control of the fungus by yeast in the fruit was evaluated by inoculating T. globosa cells in the wounds, and after 3 hours, spores of A. alternata. After 7 days, evaluations of the outer and inner diameter and qualitative assessments. As a result, it was observed in the test of volatile compounds the internal control of the progress of rot in the treatment with T. globosa and decreased spore production in the presence of T. asahii. O corn starch and the yeast Torulaspora globosa showed the best survival results of yeast in the fruit. In the in vivo test of fungus control, the treatment with the yeast T. globosa differed statistically from the control treatment both in relation to external and internal symptom, in addition to decreased production of mycelium. Therefore, the observed results showed that the yeast T. globosa has the potential to control the Alternaria alternata fungus in tomato fruits.

    This research is the result of a University Extension course aimed at caring/educating at the daycare center. The course was created for professionals who work with babies and young children in a municipal daycare center in the city of São Carlos, SP. We hypothesize that University Extension can be an important opportunity for teacher education, especially for changing and expanding conceptions about teaching in the daycare center, with an emphasis on caring and education. How can a University Extension course contribute to the training of professionals working in early childhood education, especifically with regard to the meanings attributed by the participants about caring and education? This thesis proposes a University Extension Course to analyze how it contributes to the training of professionals working in this scenario. We adopted a theoretical framework on the themes of early childhood education, caring and teacher training. In the field of early childhood education, we rely on legislation, official documents and authors who discuss the bond and credit the child with rights, understanding pedagogical action as a shared activity. We anchor in references that understand teacher training as something permanent and contextualized. With a qualitative approach, the investigation was carried out based on a case study in the scope of intervention. The organization of this action took place in three stages: 1 - Characterization of the group, survey of training needs and initial understandings about caring/educating in early childhood; 2 - Intervention based on the needs presented in the first stage; 3 - Analysis of care/educating after the second stage. We adopted the focus group for the main analysis, with footage and transcriptions of images and audio. This research was conducted in a Municipal Center for Early Childhood Education (CEMEI), having as participants the 25 professionals involved in the Extension course. Data organization was carried out through content analysis. These were organized into three thematic categories: “Understanding caring/educating in Early Childhood Education”; “Training of Professionals in Early Childhood Education in a University Extension Activity”; "Perspectives, reflections and understandings about caring/educating in Early Childhood Education". The results showed that initially the research participants understood the care in the daycare center associated with welfarism. Through participation in the University Extension course, they expanded their understanding on care/education as inseparable and anchored in human relations based on the affection, respect and listening of babies and young children. The University Extension proved to be a privileged opportunity for teacher education as a way to transform and improve their conceptions and practices. This researched proposed how to run an extension course, based on listening to teachers about their difficulties and demands, allowing them to reflect collaboratively on theories and practices. We intend to show that training is accomplished in context and that these professionals are historically situated subjects. That is why the partnership between university and the public education network is necessary and effective, providing quality education that cares/educates these professionals and that impacts teaching.

    This study aims to comprehend the pressures faced by teachers in the beginning of their careers within the school environment while pursuing the bonus from Saresp (Evaluation System of Learning Performance of the State of São Paulo), and also to grasp which are the premises that benefit (or not) the valorization of those professionals. For this purpose, interviews were conducted with teachers who had up until five years of teaching experience in two state schools of basic education I and II, both in the city of São Carlos, SP. Those schools are used to receiving the Saresp bonus, a cash prize given to the teachers rewarding the “learning” of their students. The results were achieved through the qualitative methodology as a tool to analyze the interviews as well as its contents. In order to substantiate the research, Critical Theory and some of its thinkers were employed, especially regarding discussions of autonomy, emancipation and conformism. The study confirms that the pressures experienced by the teachers in the analyzed schools are in fact resulting from the state educational system’s demands, which end up causing tensions among the teachers who prepare their students to achieve Saresp’s desired goals. Such pressure initially causes a feeling of uneasiness, affecting newcomers, however, after some time of work, it can also be identified as an inherent feeling of the teaching/learning process, besides the “race” against time to meet the expectations of the bonus’ policy. It is clear the control of the administered world, which prescribes the teacher’s consciousness, making them relate with what has been imposed to them and meeting Saresp’s goals to receive the bonus, which forces said professionals to abide by the existing domination process. And even when teachers ponder about the damages caused by the oppressive work dynamics, through the impositions of the state educational system as well as other dynamics within the school, they don’t quit this identification with the prevailing values of a society that imposes such structure, emphasizing an adaptation to the dominant system. Consequently, the full training, in other words, the real education, which presents itself to the educational system as the possibility of emancipation and autonomy is, in fact, a semi education. Education moves away from its essential value, the real enlightenment. Thus, the teacher ends up conforming within the current situation and all of their pedagogical practices become exploited into this logic. Such pedagogical practices end up curbing the development of critical thinking and autonomy, which result in adaptation and conformism, in the other words, semi education.

    The present work lists and explains the main considerations for the suspension design of a mini Baja off-road prototype, based on the modeling and multibody analysis of its vertical dynamics. The work includes both the front and rear suspension, in which parameters of stiffness and damping and their respective influences on the behavior of the suspension and the vehicle are analyzed. It is an iterative process of simulations with the objective of establishing ideal values of parameters in order to obtain a dynamic behavior close to the expected one within the limitations imposed on this type of vehicle, such as the competition regulations for example. An improvement in vehicle performance is expected, and, for this type of vehicle, this boils down to high capacity to overcome obstacles combined with minimizing of the efforts transmitted to other car subsystems, including the driver. Several conditions which are found in the competition environment and considered to be among the most critical ones are simulated. The terrain type the car is subjected to, the types of tests and obstacles in competitions, as well as the characteristics of tires, shock absorbers and springs are the parameters of the greatest importance. The UFSCar Baja Team does not have a properly documented suspension project that will serve as a basis for future performance studies and improvements. The objective of this work is the adequate development of the vertical dynamics project of the suspension of the UFSCar Baja, using design methodologies such as: analysis of dynamic systems, design documentation and computer simulations. As a result, it is expected to obtain a suspension proposal that satisfies the demands of the UFSCar Baja project.

    This research aimed to study the meanings of the Family Health Support Centers (NASF) in the Unified Health System (SUS), taking as a reference the scientific production on the subject since its creation and the performance of a NASF according to the health workers of a municipality in the interior of São Paulo. Created through the ordinance nº154 of January 24, 2008, the NASF aims to expand the actions of prevention and health promotion within the territories. Its proposal is exactly to qualify these spaces of care and health assistance, having as target public the teams and subjects of a certain territory, this way, contributing for the performance in Basic Care to be carried out in a qualified way, expanding the resolutiveness and generating good results. Methodologically, it is characterized as a qualitative study, through the case study. The research project was approved and authorized by the UFSCar's Committee of Ethics in Research with Human Beings and also approved by the Municipal Health Secretariat. The study was divided into two articles, the first of which is a bibliographical review, where a reflection of the ten years of creation and implementation of NASF in Brazil, from 2008 to 2018, is made. The second article presents the results of the field research, carried out in the first NASF in the countryside of São Paulo that started its work in March 2008. The discussion of the results showed that the team faces some difficulties to perform its work, such as management support, lack of proper space and understanding of Basic Care about its role. The lack of understanding by municipal managers about the work and the objectives of NASF in Basic Health Care is also highlighted.

    Agricultural modernization through the mechanization of harvest presents itself as an expanding reality in the sugarcane fields of Brazil. The substitution of manual labor for machines has direct implications on work processes. Much is already known about what modernization is from a business perspective – for it is the entrepreneurs themselves who modernize – and what impacts the hegemonic ways of implementing it have on workers; but little is known about the meaning of modernization for subjects who are directly impacted by such actions. Therefore, the question that leads the research is: How do the subjects linked to the sugarcane world interpret and attribute meaning to the process of agricultural modernization that has been occurring in the sugar cane fields of Alagoas? The methodological path of the research has its predominance in the qualitative approach. However, it has also mobilized quantitative strategies when it was necessary. The research field took place in the state of Alagoas and the microregion of São Miguel dos Campos was the chosen territory. Within this micro-region, it was chosen as a research strategy to pick a production unit to carry out a case study. The survey data was collected from interviews (31 in total), field trips, access to government documents and databases, and entities representing the sector. To carry out the analysis, the collected and/or constructed data was compared and contrasted from the primary and secondary sources with the selected reference bibliography. The Theory of Social Representations was the theoretical choice made to help in understanding the subjectivities of workers on the modernization that took place in the sugarcane fields. From the outset, the representations are social, as they are developed from the context in which the subjects are inserted. Given this premise, three levels were investigated: national / regional, state and local. For the national / regional context, the exclusionary modernization process was identified, as the changes, resulting from the technological incorporation that allow the mechanization of work processes, have generated a great reduction in manual labor. In the local context, Alagoas, there is a type of modernization here called retarded, since archaic and modern go hand in hand. Finally, in the local context, the plant chosen for the case study presented itself as the most mechanized in the state. From this context, the investigated subjects positively represent modernization as an event that has enabled: a) better working conditions; b) higher yields; and c) greater professional development. However, the same event also presented, on the part of the interviewed subjects, a negative side, linked to the enormous unemployment that the technological incorporation generates. Thus, this type of representation was here called “rapadura”, because the popular saying that tries to express the multidimensionality of phenomena was used here: it is sweet, but it is not soft!. “Sweet” for a few and hard for many. Oxygenating the debate involving the world of sugarcane work based on the understanding of those directly involved in the modernization process is the contribution expected by the research.

    This Ph.D. thesis covers the production and characterization of gelatin-cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) bionanocomposite films intended for multifunctional food packaging. The up-scalability of the gelatin/CNCs films was attained by continuous casting and the rheological parameters of the film-forming solutions and drying temperature required to produce 12 m film/h were established. The continuous casting processing was proven to be advantageous when compared to the bench solution casting method. Tensile test, thermogravimetric analysis, and water vapor permeability analysis showed that the continuously cast gelatin/CNCs films had exceptionally better performance than the films obtained by bench casting. The physical and structural properties of the gelatin/CNCs bionanocomposites as tailored by pH-dependent electrostatic interactions were investigated. The suitability of CNCs was successfully extended by functionalization with rosin (r-CNCs), thus giving rise to antimicrobial reinforcing agents. Tensile test and antimicrobial analysis showed that r-CNCs served as bacterial nanofillers in gelatin-based films, which otherwise would suffer from limited physical and biological properties. Plant-derived tannic acid was successfully used as an antioxidant and bactericidal additive, as another perspective of extending the potential of the gelatin/CNCs films as a packaging material. Non-oxidized tannic acid favored non-covalent interactions and intermolecular connections between gelatin, CNCs, and tannic acid. These physico chemical interactions showed to have a greater influence on the antioxidant and physical properties of gelatin/CNCs/Tannic acid films. This thesis provides a comprehensive understanding of how CNCs can be explored to develop biodegradable films based on gelatin with enhanced properties or extra functionalities. A continuous solution casting was applied for scaling up the production of gelatin/CNCs-based films making them highly desirable for packaging applications.

    This master thesis aims to guide and characterize the pedagogical and educational practices of the teacher who teaches Mathematics from the annals of the Encontro Nacional de Educação Matemática (ENEM) and the Encontro Nacional de Didática e Prática de Ensino (ENDIPE), in addition to having carried out a initial mapping in the Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Dissertações e Teses (BDBDT) e da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), so we have a total of 14 theses and dissertations and 107 articles. The methodology of this master thesis is quantitative-qualitative and a systematic review was carried out based on the considerations of Falbo, Souza and Felizardo (2017). The production of the mapping was carried out from the file of each research and article, where in the first we used the abstracts as a basis and in the second, we made the file highlighting the author, title, studied theme, problem or research question (when present), objectives, theoretical framework, methodological procedures and main results obtained. The results show that the pedagogical and educational practice can be guided in 6 axes, from the theses and dissertations, and 4 guiding axes from the articles, in which two have already appeared in the mapping of theses and dissertations. In addition, with a new regrouping, we were able to look at the characterization of pedagogical and educational practices, based on what the authors brought as methodologies, and based on authors who debate pedagogical and educational practices in the context of didactics, such as Libâneo (1990); Franco (2016) and Bandeira and Ibiapina (2014),which shows us that they are related to the processes and methodologies used by the teacher who teaches Mathematics to achieve the goal. learning by students, intentionally. These practices are guided and characterized in the relationship with teacher training, continued or initial, in their influence on students' learning, in addition to being related to the use of didactic resources for teaching and learning (educational technologies, games, problem solving, interdisciplinarity), with the reflection and conception of teachers about their own practice, since pedagogical practice is one of the aspects of educational practice. In this bias, a gap that appeared in the works and that was the motivation that triggered this research is, perhaps, the understanding that pedagogical and educational practices are the same concepts, so it opens precepts for new studies in this area, in addition, there were few works from the perspective of talking about educational practice, the subject of experiences, whether from the teacher or the student, for teaching Mathematics and the context in which the student is inserted becomes more present.

    This research aims to analyze the novel O alegre canto da perdiz (2008), by Mozambican writer Paulina Chiziane, through a reading on the thematic axis of polygamy, seeking to observe its preponderance within the fictional constructions of her literary project. Taking as a starting point of discussion some theoretical and conceptual assumptions of post-coloniality and their connections with the articulation of the theme under study, the intention here is to investigate and demonstrate how the novel invests in reflecting on the role of women within the Mozambican society.

    Camille was born in the city of Getúlio Vargas in Rio Grande do Sul. Nádia is from Minas Gerais just like me. Maria Auxiliadora, or rather, Dora Megid is from São Paulo. Camille studied while her parents were at the mate's wheel. Dora Megid was a very good student in mathematics and was literate in the Montessori method. Nádia lost her father at a very young age and he said things like: a woman has to study to be someone in life. Camille learned to play the piano. Dora Megid and Nádia have grandchildren. Camille lived in Curitiba, Nádia in Porto Velho. Camille earned a bachelor's degree and read texts in other languages. Dora Megid studied at a school for nuns. Nádia suffered to get a job during the Military Dictatorship, while Dora Megid took to the streets to protest. At that time, Camille was not even born. A priest was an example for Nádia. Lots of memories... But what do these women have in common? Camille, Nádia and Dora Megid, each following their own path, became teachers who teach mathematics and research their own experiences. The present study aimed to understand the processes of becoming a researcher of her own experience based on the narrative evidence left by these teachers. Narrative clues are the clues and signs found in the narratives of Camille, Nádia and Dora Megid. The narrative evidence made it possible to answer the question: how did teachers who teach mathematics become researchers of their own experience? The teachers' narratives confirmed the following thesis: “being a teacher who teaches mathematics in the 21st century, for the participants of this research, is related to the construction of a professional posture that understands the need to be a researcher of her own experience, considering objective and subjective conditions of life that enable processes of becoming a research teacher”. To face a narrative is to be surprised...
