Antifeminisms can be understood as opposition to feminisms, and they are related to conservatism, religious fundamentalism, and the growing electoral expression of new right parties on the world stage. This research makes use of content analysis as a method and has as its main objective to investigate the articulations of antifeminisms and the way in which antifeminist actors uses of discursive strategies to invalidate achievements and expansion of legal rights related to feminist struggles. Therefore, will be used posts from pages on social networks related to the new right in Sorocaba, from 2018 to 2021, considering that this period is important in the history of the construction of a revamped right and the consequent articulation of antifeminism in Brazil. Images, videos and comments from the profiles affiliated to the pages will be taken into account, bearing in mind the ethical particularities of Internet research. The growing use of the internet as a way of disseminating conservative ideas makes it important to study virtual scenarios and understand the articulation of antifeminist actors in this vehicle. In the data’s analysis obtained from the field, we could apprehend the existence of the following categories: criticism of "gender ideology", moral panic and broaching pedofilia and abortion, the supposed "vagrancy" of people from the progressive field, the presumed association of progressive people with “dirt”, the connection of progressive people with madness or drug use, the critique of new masculinities. The research perceived the discourse associated with religious values, male domination and heterocisnormativity as an appeal for electoral representation. Frequently the mockery and psychopathologization strategies to falsify feminist discourses and rights achievements related to progressive agendas.

Given the fact that the costumes of The Handmaid's Tale series (Bruce Miller, 2017-) have become a powerful symbol in many protests around gender inequality and women rights, this research investigates how the narrative genre through which the series builds its plot - a dystopian scientific - engages viewers; identifying and analyzing the elements of audiovisual materiality that invite fans to be affected and to experiment this universe in a similar way to the protagonist. In another sense, this research proceeds by connecting the social context of women, the feminist movement, the use of social platforms and The Handmaid's Tale series, seeking to understand how these phenomena are capable of transforming collective and social memory. By this gaze, it was possible to perceive how the way in which women and the totalitarian universe are represented in the series causes identification in viewers. This is the link that forms the connection of the fictional narrative of THT with the social and political context in which the series is consumed, thus expanding its meaning to the reality of public and political spaces.

This thesis has as its main objective to understand how trans people throughout their life histories build strategies to face the conditions of marginalization. It was intended to map the social support networks (formal and informal), as well as the social actors that compose/compose the life stories of these subjects; identify life projects (executed or not) and how they became dynamic throughout their lives; identify the strategies developed, activated and the way they were executed to face the conditions of marginalization; identify the social and political aspects that are involved in these experiences; and understand what are the expectations of these subjects in relation to the process of participation and social emancipation. To this end, it uses the oral history of life as a data collection methodology, in addition to ethnographic tools, such as observation. Data analysis was based on the concept of ways of life, in the light of the perspectives of Elizabeth Lobo and Isabel Guerra, arranged in three central axes: The system and social actors, history and everyday life, and the objective and subjective in the perception of reality. Furthermore, the analyzes were followed by an intersectional perspective, considering that several other social markers of difference, such as race, class, generation and regionality, were relevant in the construction of coping strategies. The results indicated that the impositions of the sex-gender-desire system operate from the first stages of the life course, using as a gear different actors and social institutions, such as the family, school, health services, among others, in order to regulate social practices and life projects, delimiting the tools and access to the concrete conditions of operationalization of life. The way in which these impositions and limits are perceived mediate the main coping strategies, which are configured as the redefinition of social support networks, the search for strengthening and recognition, which, in the case of the informants in this research, took place through the education and/or insertion in the spaces of the social movement. The analysis based on the concept of ways of life offered a powerful lens for recognizing the demands of this social group, presenting itself as a possibility for social occupational therapy.

This study aimed to better understand the functioning of the schools surveyed regarding democratic and participatory management from the perspective of technological means as factors that can contribute to this process. Against the background of the School Council and APM as a very important social function that instrumentalize and guarantee the exercise of democracy by participants in actions in schools, it was necessary to research which paths have been the most used for the construction of these actions in schools, analyzing and reflecting on the situation in which they find themselves. In this context, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused great impacts on education and the main one is the absence of presence in schools. As a result, the face-to-face meetings of the School Council and APM did not happen or did not happen very much. We use a methodological approach with a qualitative focus and for data collection, where we use a questionnaire, interview, and observation, with a participant-research strategy. The research was carried out in two Municipal Schools of Basic Education (EMEBs) in the city of Batatais - SP, which belong to a total of seven municipal schools that attend Kindergarten and Elementary School. And as participants, we had a director, a coordinator, two teachers, two employees and two parents, in each of the 2 schools surveyed, totaling 16 participants. In the analyses, we realized the importance that the development of a democratic and participative school management brings when built with collective participation and that helps in the construction of knowledge and knowledge of the school reality, following the path of transformation and democracy in education. Thus, we consider that the introduction and use of technological means for communication and interaction between participants could be used in order to continue the actions remotely, since previously the meetings were held in person and, in this way, even more necessary as a facilitating and functional means within school environments. Finally, regarding the results obtained, we noticed a great tendency on the part of the subjects to put these procedures into practice, considering the role of the director of fundamental importance for this, as he is the main driver of this process.

Symmetry is one of the most fundamental concepts in modern science, dictating the basic laws of physics and defining the fundamental forces of nature. Symmetry controls physics both in the high energy regime, with relativity, and in the microscopic world with quantum mechanics. Despite its importance, this concept is not explored either in textbooks or in high school physics classes. In this work we present how structuring and fundamental concepts of physics, such as symmetry, symmetry transformations, homogeneous and isotropic universe, invariance of a physical property, among others, can be worked both conceptually and analytically through a more complete definition of vector, in which we consider the transformation relationship of its components through the rotation of the coordinate axes. Our goal is to facilitate the introduction of these fundamental concepts as soon as possible in physics classes, so that students can understand the importance of mathematics as one of the essential methodologies for the development of physics. Such concepts can also provide a justification for the way physics is treated mathematically in the classroom. Our educational product consists of a didactic sequence containing potentially significant material in a theoretical physics context. For the application of the product in the classroom, we explore the Subsumption Theory of Ausubel of meaningful learning, using the simplified concept of vector, usually worked at the basic level of education, and a simple physical system, described by a block sliding on an inclined plane, to address a more complete definition of vector and demonstrate analytically the concepts of symmetry, symmetry transformations in a homogeneous and isotropic space, and invariance of a physical property. The educational product was applied to high school students in a state school in the city of Itu, municipality of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The results, obtained from questionnaires related to the subjects of each activity, are promising for the proposed contents to be introduced in the first years of high school to be worked on and explored over it.

This research working is part of the Graduate Program in Education, at the Federal University of São Carlos in Brazil, in the line of research on Teacher Education, and seeks to analyze the process of constitution of the teaching identity in nursery school as of the encounter between two types of different formative evaluation: the intern, through in initial training process and the teacher, an active professional, in a continuing education development process. Therefore, within a qualitative research perspective, it will be use bibliographical research and narrative interview. It will be utilized Nóvoa (1989 and 1991) and Pimenta (1999) to deal with the teaching profession; Dubar (2006), Pimenta and Lima (2017) and Nóvoa (1991) for teacher identity; Pimenta and Lima (2017) and Rodrigues (2013) to talk about internship and Campos (2008), Cerisara (1999) and Kuhlmann Junior (1998 and 2000) to talk about the nursery school and its specificities. Narrative interviewing were conducted with teachers and interns, students from the Pedagogy course at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) – Campus Sorocaba, and teachers from a public nursery school in the city of Sorocaba, countryside of São Paulo, participants of the Pedagogical Residency Program (PRP) in the year 2018. As it may realise that the meetings that took place in nursery school during the Pedagogical Residency Program (PRP) constituted an important opportunity to consolidate the options and intentions of teaching in nursery school for the interns who will be fundamental to teaching identity these, allowing teachers a continuing education development process, valuing their knowledge and contributing for the reaffirmation of their teaching identity. Collaboration between university and nursery school in initial and continuing teacher education proved to be as possible as it is necessary as a teacher education policy.

The quality of life of the elderly population is associated to the maintenance of functional capacity. Declines in functional capacity resulting from aging are related to falls in older adults. About 400,000 people die each year around the world after they have had fallen. When falls do not result in death or serious injuries, they can lead to dependency, decreased mobility, decision deficits and an increased risk of falls. There are different tests and scales used to identify changes in functional capacity in the elderly population. Among these tests, Timed-up and Go (TUG) stands out due to its standardization, validation and practicality. The total time to complete TUG has been used to assess the mobility and balance. However, the “gold standard” instrument for obtaining time during TUG execution is the manual stopwatch, which can influence on the data acquisition. The use of more robust instruments (inertial sensors and force platform) would allow for more accurate assessments of the functional capacity of the elderly population. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to assess an agreement between instruments to assess the time to perform the TUG in older adults. For this, the study included 30 samples from the force platform and 14 samples from the inertial sensors, obtained during the performance of the TUG by 5 older adults (66.2 ± 7.2 years). The agreement between measurements was analyzed using correlation tests, Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC), and Bland-Altman graphs. The results revealed that there were positive associations between the times obtained from the stopwatch with the times obtained from the force platform (rs=0.97) and from the inertial sensors (r=0.90). The ICCs indicate an excellent reliability between the times obtained from the stopwatch with the times obtained from the force platform (ICC=0.987) and the inertial sensors (ICC=0.925). Finally, the Bland-Altman graphs showed agreement between the times obtained from the stopwatch with the times obtained from the force platform and inertial sensors. In conclusion, there is agreement between the stopwatch data with data from the force platform and the inertial sensors for the evaluation of the TUG in older adults.

This research intended to investigate the experience of teachers, seven female and one male, about Mathematics Education teaching practices built in an inclusive perspective to Special Education students. This work pursued specifically to identify inclusive education perspectives towards Mathematics Education teaching proposals in the school’s political-pedagogical plan; to know better the teachers’ understanding of inclusive education and schooling process of Special Education aimed students in regular schools, besides the process’ challenges and possibilities; as well as the educators’ view of their own knowledge of the pedagogical practice building regarding inclusive education; through interviews with the research participants, it was possible to get in touch with the dimensions of pedagogical activity in Mathematics Education, including actions pointed by the educators as positive to the inclusion process. This study was based on the Historic-Cultural Theory, adopting as an analysis unit Vygotsky’s concept of living (perezhivanie). The methodological strategy was semi-structured interviews. Results indicated: a) in the school’s political-pedagogical plan, the existence of some broad proposals reckoning the inclusion of Special Education aim students, adding to this group students with learning issues; b) the study participants’ positive posture towards the inclusion of Special Education aimed students in the regular school system, which dialogues with official guidelines; however, teachers underlined difficulties faced in making educational inclusion come true, revealing challenges related to family presence in the inclusion process, initial and continuing education frailties, and technical support in the work with these pupils; c) the accomplishment of favourable practices to inclusion in Mathematics teaching involving games, concrete, playful and manipulable materials, considering in this process interaction among all regular school system enrolled students. Furthermore, the educators highlighted the importance of taking into account each student’s features to elaborate teaching activities, prioritising meaning constructions to the detriment of memorisation procedures; the assessment of educators’ individual experiences, expressed in their speech, allowed theorising the meaning of the pedagogical action and its implications in the individual educational experience, composing a collective dimension. The dialectical movement built by this piece of work joined aspects that interact with the history of Special and Inclusive Educations in Brazil, as much as with the evolution of formation processes to educational inclusion and Mathematics Education practices. It is discussed that, although there are challenges in the inclusive process, a plethora of forms of resistance are thought and undertaken at the extent of educators’ strategy building and persistence in creating proposals from school reality demands and hardships, in an attempt to make policies effective, even though it may be a difficult, gradual and sometimes lonely movement.

The generation of waste in civil construction (CW) will never be zero and the search for other solutions before the simple disposal, should be a continuous improvement aimed by the management and environmental responsibility sectors of the companies in the sector. Both demolitions and new construction sites present residues that are not at the end of their useful life cycle and can be reused in the construction site itself or in other constructions. The circular economy aims to bring the waste to the beginning of the production chain, giving it value as a material, allowing its reuse, reducing costs and preserving the sources of resources. The integrated system of the waste exchange, on the other hand, aims to reduce the emission of debris through the integration of various sectors of the industry, by ensuring and allowing the marketing of by-products from one sector, with a focus on reuse in others. In this context, the present work aimed to develop and present a mobile tool, which enables the value of waste as a product on a trading platform, and allows the presentation of recycling techniques, through a database of scientific papers. For this, a systemic review methodology was proposed, to identify recent studies on methods of reuse and recycling of CWs, which later came to integrate the software. It was also suggested to determine the costs of the materials lost in a stationary waste bucket, to verify the tool's compliance to the concepts of the waste bag. Finally, 14 papers presenting recycling techniques were reached and the result of R$1080.53 was obtained, when pricing the waste in the bucket. From these and other data, a mobile application was developed that, in addition to assisting in the management and disposal, lists possibilities of reintegration and commercialization of CWs.

Alzheimer's Disease is a degenerative disease that mainly affects the cognitive function of memory and because many of the patients are unaware of their own difficulties, their ability to properly judge their mnemonic functions is considered. Metacognition is associated with understanding one's own cognitive functions, so that metamemory is the ability to know, monitor and control the mnemonic process. The objective of this work is to compare the metacognitive knowledge and monitoring, specifically in relation to metamemory, of elderly people with signs of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and elderly people without signs of cognitive decline. Participants were divided into two groups: the first group consisted of 13 elderly people, aged between 62 and 75 years, with no indications of cognitive decline; the second group consisted of 5 elderly people diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease at a mild level, aged between 66 and 65 years. The NEUPSILIN memory subtests and the Metacognitive Judgments Register were used, which aims at the participant to indicate the knowledge about his mnemonic ability and estimate his performance after the application of the memory subtests. Descriptive statistics, Man-Whitney test and correlational analyzes were performed involving metacognitive knowledge, performance in memory subtests and judgment of performance. The results indicated that the two groups of elderly people showed little knowledge about their own memory and the elderly with Alzheimer's tended to overestimate their performance in relation to working memory and semantic episodic verbal memory.

Technology can be defined as a way to solve important human problems. Behavioral technology, specifically, is applying the scientific findings of Behavior Analysis to solve socially relevant behavioral problems. Despite strengthening itself as a scientific perspective of Psychology, being a well-defined field of knowledge, and with a prolific production of data, there are still few investigations about the transposition of behavioral-analytic science to technology development. The aim of this thesis is to propose a heuristic for the development of behavioral technologies and demonstrate its application to a complex problem in the domain of Special Education. As specific objectives, we seek to define, based on the literature, what behavioral technology is; Propose and describe a heuristic for the creation of behavioral technology; Describe the application of the proposed heuristic in the design of a game manual to reduce stigma through structured contact between children with and without ASD. Several methods were applied at each stage of the research. The heuristic was described based on the specialized literature, and a systematic procedure to develop behavioral interventions was created. Evidence was collected using systematic review, and the operational definition process also sought to follow a procedure replicable by other researchers. The development process of the behavioral intervention was described step-by-step, allowing for replication and future iterations. This thesis is structured in three main chapters, two additional chapters, and the created game manual presented as an appendix. The three main chapters go from the theoretical definition of behavioral technology and the functional description of the behaviors that make up the behavior of the behavior analyst in the development of technology, in Chapter 1, through the proposal of a heuristic procedure for the construction of behavioral technologies, in Chapter 2, ending with the demonstration of the application of this heuristic to a natural environment problem (the facilitation of non-stigmatizing interactions between children with and without ASD), in Chapter 3. The two additional chapters are the results of collecting the necessary information for the construction of the game proposed in Chapter 3: a conceptual study of stigmatizing behavior and a proposed operational definition based on empirical literature (Additional Chapter 1); and a systematic review of the literature, evaluating the tools with the strongest evidence in reducing stigma in the school environment (Additional Chapter 2). It is expected that the adoption of a structured procedure for the development of behavioral interventions, when applied to the context of combating the stigmatization of children with ASD, will help in the production of future effective intervention tools. Despite the description of a systematic way of creating the tool, it is important to emphasize that the detailed description of the process of developing technology cannot replace its empirical evaluation. Thus, we hope that in the future efficacy and generalization tests, hampered by the SarsCov2 virus pandemic, can be conducted. Empirical evaluation is indispensable for characterizing a behavioranalytic technology as such.

In this work, we study aggregates, which we will call clusters of copper and gold with and without the adsorbed ethanol molecule. First, we investigated the most favorable positions for ethanol adsorption to occur in metallic clusters. Then, we used three methods to obtain, a priori, these positions with possession only of the clusters without performing calculations with the adsorbed molecule. These methods are the Fukui indices, the interaction of point charges around the metallic cluster, and a geometric index, which gives how close or far apart the metallic atoms are in the isolated cluster in question. These positions obtained are then confronted with those from a later calculation of the cluster and ethanol set. With this, we established the predictive power of the methods used to obtain the best adsorption positions. Gold and copper nanoclusters have been extensively studied in several theoretical works using density functional theory. The present work used the density functional theory, using the hybrid exchange and correlation functional B3LYP and the base set def-SVP and later def-TZVPP. The objective is to compare energy character between several clusters with sizes of 10 to 20 atoms, obtained from the literature. Our studies do not have the nature of being systematic. Instead, develop and carry out a critical analysis of models that could study the adsorption of molecules in metallic clusters. Several theoretical studies indicate that ethanol preferentially adsorbs on metallic nanoclusters via nucleophilic attack by the oxygen-free electronic pair. This work includes the D3 Grimme scattering approximation to correct for van der Waals (vdW) effects. According to the results obtained, it was observed that there is no clear relationship between the energy analysis of the clusters, such as the binding energy (BE) (or the second energy difference (∆2E)) and the adsorption energy of ethanol (Eads). After adsorption of the ethanol molecule, some gold clusters deform their initial geometry in the region of 12 to 18 atoms. This problem is not frequent in copper clusters. The adsorption energy in copper clusters varies from -0.65 to -1.16 eV and, for gold clusters, the adsorption energy varies from -0.40 to -0.75 eV. Our studies showed that metallic clusters might have different stabilities due to geometric deformation against the adsorption of molecules. The studies carried out here will help the development of ethanol catalysis in metallic clusters.

Esta investigación involucró la caracterización geomorfológica de la cuenca del río Itapetininga mediante del análisis de la evolución regional de las unidades de relieve de la cuenca en cuestión y también las limitaciones morfoestructurales y su relación con los ambientes depositacionales y la dinámica de la red de drenaje. Se buscó comprender los procesos que influyen en la morfodinámica regional y local, especialmente en lo que respecta a la dinámica fluvial y su papel en la disección, transporte y consecuente acumulación del depósitos correlativos en destintas zonas. El área de estudio se ubica en la porción sureste del estado del San Pablo, entre las morfoesculturas de la Depresión Periférica Paulista y la Meseta Atlántica, introduciendo una complejidad en cuanto a la tipología de relieve y el padron de la red de drenaje. El objetivo del trabajo fue comprender la evolución del paisaje desde del análisis de terrazas y llanuras y su relación con el cambio climático Cuaternario y los procesos neotectónicos. En cuanto al método, optamos por el enfoque sistémico del Christofolleti (1981) y la metodología se guió por técnicas morfométricas, análisis de modelos de relieve, elaboración del mapas temáticos y análisis físico del depósitos correlactivos. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que el área de estudio fue influenciada por eventos tectónicos relacionados con la apertura del Océano Atlántico y estructuras de fallas preexistentes y también por eventos climáticos Cuaternarios, principalmente de las fases húmeda y semihúmeda del Holoceno Superior e Inferior. El cruce de técnicas y datos permitió una comprensión general de los mecanismos que interfieren en la morfogénesis de la cuenca hidrográfica y que, en consecuencia, demuestran procesos relacionados con los últimos miles de años.

Introduction: Many problems that occur with aging are related to an unhealthy lifestyle. Physical activity (PA) helps to prevent disease and promote health, promoting a healthier lifestyle. One strategy to promote the practice of healthy habits, such as AF, is the use of mobile device applications. However, the elderly population faces difficulties and barriers regarding these technologies. It becomes important, then, to identify the scientific literature on the subject in order to collaborate in the improvement and/or creation of PA applications that are more accessible to this audience. Thus, the objective of this investigation is to map the factors related to adoption and/or adherence to PA mobile apps by the elderly. Methods: In this section, two manuscripts of the scoping review were presented, the first is the protocol with methodological aspects and the second the complete review with the results. Regarding the review methods, searches were performed in five databases, with a strategy developed from terms such as adoption, adherence, factors, mobile applications, PA and elderly. In addition, two additional strategies were performed by checking the list of references of the included and searching Google Scholar. Studies available from 2010 to the date of the search in English, Portuguese or Spanish, that had factors specific to the elderly, were included. The selection of studies was performed by two reviewers in five steps: identification of studies in the databases and removal of duplicates; pilot test; selection by titles and abstracts; inclusion by full texts and realization of additional strategies. Disagreements in the steps were resolved by a third reviewer. Data were extracted by two reviewers using a form. Quantitative data were reported in a narrative form and qualitative data were analyzed through an inductive thematic analysis. Results: The results were presented in the second manuscript, as follows: 12 studies were included in the review, most of which were published after 2017 and half of the studies were published in Switzerland or the United States. The studies had different types of design being the most frequent studies of usability, intervention, interview and design, and product development. In addition, the qualitative approach was the most used and most studies (58.3%) had between 11 and 20 participants. All study participants used at least one PA application and data related to adoption and/or adherence to these applications were collected through different means, such as interviews, focus groups, questionnaires and data from the application itself. The main factors found in relation to adoption were personal factors related to the individual, while for adherence the main factors were the technical reasons related to the application used. Conclusion: This review allowed the identification of specific factors for the elderly public, which could help in the development and improvement of mobile PA applications, increasing the adoption and adherence of this audience and, consequently, the practice of PA.

Several requirements and challenges of modern construction motivated the development of High-Performance Concrete (HPC) and later, with the advance of the research, the Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC). Due to the seek for a concrete that was not only higher in compressive strength, but also with good tensile and ductility behavior, self-compacting, and very high durability. Composed primarily by portland cement, silica fume, quartz powder, small aggregate, steel fibers, super plasticizing additives and water, UHPC first research was developed around 1990 in France and Canada. This material can reach high strength, in the range of 150 MPa to 800 MPa for compression and 5 MPa to 100 MPa for tension, with high ductility. These characteristics allow more durable and slender structures. In addition, there is the possibility to reduce or eliminate the passive reinforcements, in particular shear. The aim of this work is to introduce criteria for structural design using UHPC, as well as its composition, production, curing methods and the main factors that hinder its use in a greater number of constructions. This text organizes all relevant information on the topic, developing a material capable of guiding engineers in the design of structures using this technology, and with that, to encourage their use in the various fields of the civil construction industry in Brazil. The research is composed by a literature review including research already developed on the subject in Brazil and in several other countries, describing the main constructions already executed with this material, design criteria, constructive details and the characteristics that differs it from conventional concretes. As application examples, prestressed bridge girder beam designs are developed using the CUAD and compared with prestressed concrete design using conventional concrete for a feasibility analysis. With the study, it was possible to clearly expose all the information necessary for its design, production and structural application, in addition to providing a material capable of guiding the design of structures using UHPC and also serving as a contribution to future technical normalization.

Early Childhood Education started having some attention about 30 years ago, recognizing its actors and protagonists. With that, laws and documents were elaborated, to deconstruct the welfare stigma carried by Children's Education teachers, especially those working at day care centers. Currently, the BNCC (Base Nacional Comum Curricular) is the guiding document regarding actions and practices of teachers, and a mandatory reference for these institutions. Therefore, we start with the premise on the imposition of Public Policies in the field of Early Childhood Education. In the case of BNCC, reflected as a guiding document for teaching actions. In this sense, this study suggests the following reflections: How do nursery teachers understand the BNCC and how have those regulations reflected in their practices? To what extent have the professional knowledge of these teachers been recognized and articulated in the actions of the BNCC? In order to answer these questions, we analyze the perception of daycare teachers about the implementation of BNCC and its impact on their actions and on the recognition of their professional knowledge. Thus, in order to deepen the investigated object and its peculiarities, three specific objectives were defined: profile the professional identity of the teachers, investigate how daycare teachers interpret and use BNCC regulations in their actions, understand which professional knowledge is mobilized by the teachers in their practices and to what extent this knowledge is valued and aligned with BNCC. In order to reach these goals, qualitative research was carried out, through an exploratory-descriptive study, following four stages of analysis. The first stage refers to a bibliographic survey, looking for studies in the area, that appear in the CAPES and UFSCar research archives. The second stage consisted in a theoretical survey, looking up to authors in the field of professionalization of teaching, early childhood education and public policies, with a focus on the BNCC. The fourth stage was done through a documental analysis on normative documents of national and municipal levels, related to the studied topic. And for the last stage, a questionnaire was applied to 15 teachers who work in a daycare center from a town in São Paulo state. Data was grouped into three axes of analysis, focusing on identity profile, professional knowledge and BNCC. The research results pointed to the absence of teachers' political participation in the implementation of actions, the lack of valuation of professional knowledge both at the BNCC and in the documents prepared by the SME and the nonexistence of perspectives that see the professionals as producers of their know-how in the context of the day care center.

This work aims to evaluate the use of a reinforcement system to strengthen structural masonry panels under vertical and lateral load. The reinforcement system is the Eco-friendly Ductile Cementitious Composite (EDCC). This is a ductile material used for repair and reinforcement of structural masonry walls. The first part of methodology consists in analyzing the structural behavior of masonry reinforced with EDCC, based on experimental test results performed by the research group. The study assessed the influence of the EDCC on masonry compression, flexure, and shear strength. The second part of the methodology consists of finite element modelling of the experimental tests, to calibrate valid models for the correct simulation of the tests. It was possible to determine accurate models simulating the behavior of masonry coated with EDCC submitted to compression, flexure, and shear loads. A formulation to predict the coated masonry compression load capacity is derivate from the models results. The models and the experimental tests returned positive values in relation to the use of EDCC with reinforcement material, showing that there is an increase in strength and ductility of the walls with the increase of the EDCC layer.

The consumption of kale is increasing in Brazil, and curly kale, which has a high nutritional value, is not widespread. Kale is sold in bunches of adult leaves, however, there is the possibility of growing in bunches of young plants in a hydroponic system, which has several advantages, however, densities have not been tested. Thus, the aim was to generate information about the hydroponic cultivation in NFT of curly kale in bunches of young plants, with a study of spacing (0.07; 0.11; 0.15; and 0.20 m) and number of plants per cell (one, two, three, and four), in different seasons (winter and summer), aiming to improve the productivity, quality, and homogeneity of kale. In winter, plant height was higher with smaller spacing; nutrient, ash, fiber, and lipid contents were within normal limits; moisture, protein and total carbohydrate contents were lower than those reported for curly kale, but similar to those reported for collards. In summer, there was no statistical difference in plant height. In both periods, with the smaller spacing the higher was the productivity; with less plants per cell the larger were the leaf dimensions and the more homogeneous were the different plants of the same cell. Thus, the desired product in the cultivation of hydroponic kale in bunches of young plants is decisive for choosing spacing and numbers of plants per cell, since different choices bring different productivities, number and sizes of leaves. The hydroponic system is technically viable for curly kale production throughout the year, providing plants of good nutritional quality.

Over the past decade, the organic synthetic community has witnessed the emergence of a new and complementary approach to the conventional radical chemistry. Photochemistry has proven to be a powerful and more sustainable tool through the photoredox catalysis concepts, which are based on the use of organic and metallic photocatalysts capable of absorbing visible light irradiation and converting it into electrochemical potential, promoting the rationalization of new disconnections that are not viable or difficult to be achieved by conventional methods. Nitrogen-centered 1,3-dipoles are considered key building blocks for the preparation of five-membered heterocyclic compounds and are widely explored in (3 + 2) cycloaddition reactions. Despite the advances in translating these reactions under photocatalytic conditions, the use of such dipoles - except for nitrones and azides - remains scarcely explored. Among this class of versatile compounds, azomethine imines presents a zwitterionic nature that have been mainly explored in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions and only few reports involving photoisomerization and photocyclization promoted by ultraviolet irradiation were disclosed in the literature. In this scenario, we initially became interested in exploring the reactivity of azomethine imines under visible-light irradiation. To this end, we envisioned that the easily generated and reactive α-aminoalkyl radicals would be ideal coupling partners for the development of a new photoredox functionalization strategy of azomethine ions leading to the synthesis of N-(β-aminoalkyl) pyrazolidinones under mild reaction conditions. Having proven the reactive potential of these species under the photoredox catalysis, we then challenged them in a one-electron approach for amide bond installation in the presence of readily available and stable 4-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridines as carbamoyl radical source. The principal relevance of the developed protocol relies on the rich nature of the accessed compounds, as a library of diversified amino acid derivatives, including more complex substrates and drug derivatives. We demonstrated that photoredox catalysis is an excellent strategy for the a-functionalization of azomethine imines, leading to an easy access to high functionalized compounds through a new a-amino functionalization protocol and by installing amide bonds. The potential of the developed methods was demonstrated preparing complex examples involving peptides, pharmaceutical ingredients, and sterically hindered amides.
