    The quest to make manufacturing processes sustainable is an increasingly important need. In this context, the present work assessed the grinding process of cemented tungsten carbide inserts with SNGN geometry (square, with zero clearance angle and without edge preparation) and WC-5%CO composition (ISO grade K10), one of the most used in the industry. The following cutting conditions were varied: cutting speed (12, 40 and 60 m/s), feed speed (2 and 12 mm/min) and coolant fluid flow (12.6 and 16.2 l/min). The combination of the proposed parameters led to 12 conditions applied for each type of diamond grinding wheel, with concentration C100 (0.88 g/cm³), different abrasive grain sizes and bonding materials: grain size of 15 μm and resinoid binder (D15R), grain size of 15 μm and vitrified binder (D15V), grain size of 46 μm and resinoid binder (D46R), grain size of 46 μm and vitrified binder (D46V). The grinding tests were carried out to assess the influence of the different parameters on surface and edge roughness, as well as on energy consumption and efficiency. As a result, it was observed that the variation of grinding parameters had little influence on the insert quality, although a slight increase could be noticed with the use of the vitrified bonded diamond grinding with bigger grain size. The increase in the single grain chip thickness led to an increase in cutting forces and a decrease in specific energy, but there was no influence of grinding conditions on the electric power, being the energy consumption reduced by 62.8% only by changing the feed speed from 2 to 12 mm/min, which actually caused a decrease in processing time.

    Since Brazil's imperial era, enslaved black Africans have sought ways to resist the horrors of slavery. The groups that brought together these individuals received the name of quilombos, a word of origin in the Bantu language, which means settlement or fortress. The communities of quilombos in Brazil live in situation of economic and social vulnerability, being victims of exclusion, discrimination and poverty. These inequalities prevent black women from engaging in occupations they consider significant. Meaningful occupations are purposeful actions which are motivated by interest and will. This study aims to understand how racism interferes in the construction of identity and in the occupational engagement of black quilombola women. The study aims to 1. Describe the significant occupations performed by black quilombola women; 2. Identify women's perceptions and feelings about the experience of racism; 3. Understand the influence of deprivation of occupational engagement in the lives of black quilombola women; 4. Identify the coping strategies eventually used by this group against racist stereotypes. This is a study with a qualitative approach associated with visual methodologies, using photovoice as a data generation instrument, in addition to interviews and participant observation. Data were obtained from narratives and photos produced by nine black women who reside in the quilombola community called Comunidade da Pinguela, located in the countryside of Bahia. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis which resulted in five categories. Category I: Quilombola identity and occupational identity: The ambivalence between pride and shame: the deprivation of occupational engagement outside the quilombo. Category II: Quilombola Resistance: Struggles against invisibility, disputes over territory, difficulties of capitalism, violation of rights, dissatisfaction with federal government policies and inefficient public security. Category III: From black ancestry to the 21st century: Chosen amnesia from historical oppression, black diaspora, ancestral traditions and religious syncretism. Category IV: Racism and occupational injustice: Feelings, perceptions and strategies for overcoming racist stereotypes. Category V: The insurgency of quilombola women: Sisterhood and gender disparity in occupations. Through the results, the main issues experienced by women in their daily lives were shown, such as the care they have with the community, social relationships based on solidarity and sisterhood, how they build their identities and the assigned meanings, the struggle against invisibility, violation of rights and silencing, among other aspects. The study shows that research involving the quilombola population, therapy and occupational science is scarce, and opportunities for professional training and interventions in this field are also rare. Thus, I suggest ways of coping with these tensions, reflecting on the peculiarities of therapy and occupational science for research, teaching and the provision of relevant services to these populations. In addition, the study reaffirms the urgent need to implement public policies that recognize and respect the values ​​and rights of the Brazilian quilombola population.

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a gradual and progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by predominant cortical atrophy in the medial temporal lobe and microscopically extensive neuronal losses and deposits called neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques. From the results of the Rotterdam study in 1992, it is known that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases the risk of dementia. Patients with T2DM have structural brain changes and cognitive impairment, with a high risk of developing AD. These data suggest that insulin may play a key role in brain activity and memory formation. Our group has been studying peripheral AD biomarkers since 2010. Our results indicate that ADAM10 (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease), the α-secretase that inhibits the formation of senile plaques and, therefore, is protective against AD, is active and decreased on platelets. Conversely, ADAM10 is inactive and increased in older adults with this dementia than cognitively healthy older adults. In this sense, this study aimed to verify the plasma ADAM10 levels among cognitively healthy older adults without glycemic alteration, older adults with AD, older adults with T2DM and older adults with the concomitant presence of AD and T2DM. The results showed a significant difference between plasma ADAM10 levels between all groups compared to older adults with AD+T2DM. Therefore, alterations in the insulin pathway can cause changes in ADAM10 levels and contribute to the worsening of AD.

    There is a growing concern about microorganism resistance to chemical agents in the natural ecosystem. The spread of resistance genes through multifactorial mechanisms such as wastewater treatment plants, hospitals or agricultural waste. The management of agricultural livestock is the most hotspot of dissemination pathogenic strains for wild animals. Bovine mastitis is commonly the cause of infections that cause great damage to the dairy industry, affecting the quality of products, decreasing milk production, favoring early slaughter and increasing total expenses with medication and veterinary care on farms. The risk factors associated with mastitis are the drying process of treatment, absence of disinfection practices before and after milking, incorrect treatment with antimicrobial therapy and no-professional training of milkers. This study is a review about the main sources of dissemination of resistant and multidrug-resistant strains and aggravated environmental impasses in the rural environment, especially in dairy cattle production. In addition, it makes an alert list about the neglected use of antimicrobials in dairy production and the main threats to biodiversity by the spread of resistant strains in natural environments.

    The objective of this research was to analyze the Continuing Education of the Director in schools from 0 to 3 years old, for the process of strengthening the professionalization of teaching in Early Childhood Education, having as research field the Municipality of Cabreúva/SP. The interest in the subject arose from the observation that the School Director of this segment often requests support and specific investment for their training in the area of activity, taking into account the particularities existing in their work context. This research uses a qualitative, descriptive and interpretive approach. For the construction of data, a questionnaire (Google Form) was used with directors or deputy directors of this segment. To compose the deepening of the research data, semi-structured interviews were carried out with two directors of Early Childhood Education from 0 to 3 years old in Cabreúva: the first, Effective Director of the network with the longest career in the School Directorate and the second Substitute Deputy Director in the career start. The analysis is based on studies on continuing education and career (NÓVOA, 2017), school management (LÜCK, 2000) and Early Childhood Education Maria Malta Campos. For data analysis, analytical categories were constructed referring to the Principals of Early Childhood Education, namely: training profile; Professional Experience and Professionalization and Continuing Training in Service. The main results indicate that it is necessary to expand the discussions regarding training needs, taking into account the specificities of the context of managers from 0 to 3 years old and Public Policies for Specialized Training to consolidate the professionalization process. The data also indicate the need to offer a follow-up program for the Novice Director, taking into account the specificities faced for work at the beginning of the career.

    The experience as a school pedagogical coordinator raised some concerns about this role, her training, her specificity as a profession and the professional identity of this role. Faced with such questions, the objective of this research was to identify and understand the main elements that constitute the concepts and processes of professionalism and professionalization of school pedagogical coordinators. With this objective established, we opted for the perspective of a qualitative approach to research, and, with a systematic review methodological path, which makes it possible to investigate these concepts and their elements, and the constitution processes, in the research already carried out, discussed and revealed in a given time cut, due to the increase in academic productions on pedagogical coordination, this cut was established from the 2000s 2018 onwards. From the proposed focus, the methodological actions unfolded in the data collection in the Theses and Dissertations Catalog - CAPES, which had 23 researches selected to compose analytical corpus. The chapters present a historical outline of the function and attributions of the pedagogical coordination and the legal historicity of the function, in addition to highlighting the theoretical foundation for the study and deepening of the terms were about professionality (DUBAR, 2005; DAVIS E GORZONI, 2017; AMBROSETTI E ALMEIDA, 2009; ANDRÉ E PLACCO 2007; SACRISTÁN, 1995; ROLDÃO 2008; NÓVOA, 2017) and for professionalization (TARDIF 2013; LENGERT 2011; NÓVOA2017). After collecting data in academic productions, the systematic review of research was inspired by Romanowski (2006). As for the concept of terms; professionalism is understood as a set of attributions of the subject and his profession and as for professionalization as a collective movement of validation and legitimation of training, doing and specific knowledge. The main results of the elements indicate that the process of constitution of professionalism and professionalization of the school pedagogical coordinator are intertwined, however they have their own characteristics, therefore, professionalism involves two main elements organized into two categories; one of self-knowledge (from the coordinators for themselves) and the other of recognition of their formative role (from the coordinators to the other). And the main elements of professionalization involve working conditions and specific continuing education in which professional autonomy is provided and the community is strengthened.

    The search for an efficient literacy method is not new. An approach that has been proving effective in educational environments is Behavior Analysis. This approach has supported interventions with the purpose of remedying the gaps in teaching methods of reading and writing skills regularly used in schools. The present study developed and evaluated a programmed teaching module aimed to teach discriminative skills considered to be elementary for learning to read and write. In order to do this, the present work was divided into two stages: 1) planning and programming a Preparatory Module for teaching elementary reading skills as well as its transposition into computer language and its indexing to the GEIC; 2) implementation and evaluation of three participants of the first full version of the Preparatory Module. Three children from two Brazilian states participated, aged between 9 and 10 years old, enrolled in the 2nd and 3rd grade of elementary school. The teaching program consisted of nine teaching tasks and four probes distributed in four teaching units. Trial blocks with difficulty progression were programmed with accuracy criterion in order to assure the learning of the target abilities. Among the participants, there was performance variability when running the probes; deterioration of some skills after the teaching steps; high number of repetitions of the teaching steps (i.e., due to not meeting the criteria in the first exposure) and difficulties in identifying possible intervening variables that may have affected performance (i.e., changes in the application of the teaching program by the research assistant). The extension of the teaching program, and the remote application condition of the program, assisted by a research assistant, were considered probable problems in application. The results of the present study are promising and indicate the potential of the Preparatory Module to reach the criterion of effectiveness in order to be able to make part of the ALEPP Program.

    In the context of the discrete-time stochastic processes, this thesis presents new results on Poincaré recurrence theory. After a complete review of recent results, we present a new theorem on the exponential approximations for hitting and return times distributions. We show that the scaling parameter of the approximate distribution, called "potential well", brings fundamental informations about the structure of the target set. Moreover, we show that the asymptotic properties of the potential well influences several aspects of the recurrence times, such as limiting distributions and moments. Finally, we apply our results to obtain the waiting time spectrum as a function of the Rényi entropy for classes of processes not covered by previous works.

    The development of bifunctional acid catalysts is an area of heterogeneous catalysis in intense growth, mainly due to the possibility of performing consecutive reactions using a single catalyst and a single reactor. In this sense, bifunctional acid catalysts, containing Lewis and Brönsted acid sites, based on phosphates, are promising materials to catalyze different classes of chemical reactions. Thus, the work sought the synthesis and characterization of phosphates, oxides and oxides of phosphated Sn, Ti and Zr. In addition, a synthesis methodology was developed to obtain aluminophosphates with zeolitic structure (MAPOs) modified with Sn, Ti and Zr (M = Sn, Ti or Zr). The characterization of the materials was obtained by analysis of XRD, Physisorption of N2, TPD-NH3, FTIR-NH3, UV-Vis; XRF, ICP-OES and 31P and 27Al -MAS-RMN. Which, in the case of phosphates, phosphate oxides and oxides of Sn, Ti and Zr showed that the synthesized materials present structures that resemble metallic oxyphosphates and phosphated metallic oxides. In the case of MAPOs, structures with a purely AFI topology with the heteroatom tetrahedrally coordinated to the aluminophosphate structure were obtained, evidencing the effectiveness of the developed synthesis procedure. The activity of the catalysts was evaluated in two different reactions, in the reaction of biomass conversion (glucose and xylose) and in the condensation between ketones and aldehydes to form the chalcone. In the conversion of glucose and xylose, the synthesized catalysts showed medium results, with the maximum formation of fructose and HMF, from xylulose and fufural, from xylose 40%, respectively. However, excellent results were obtained for the reactions of chalcone formation, with Zr(PO4)x presenting yields above 80%, which are similar to the reactions catalyzed in a homogeneous basic medium. In addition, it was observed that Zr(PO4)x maintains its structure and activity unchanged during 5 reuses, evidencing high stability of the material. In addition, another important result was the development of milder procedures, using p-cymene or carrying out the reaction in the absence of solvent, without compromising the TOFinitial of chalcone formation or consumption of acetophenone, demonstrating the potential of this system. Finally, Zr(PO4)x was also active for the formation of chalcones containing different substituents, through the use of aldehydes and centones containing different functional groups.

    There is a lack of studies about people’s reasons for opting to study medicine after graduating in other areas. The aim of this study was to understand the reasons that lead a professional to start a new graduation course, specifically medicine, the difficulties and facilities involved and professional expectations, as well as to list the public policies that allow and are responsible for the increase number of students seeking for a second education. In addition, a reflective memorial was developed to sumarize my experiences and highlight facts that I consider relevant to my choosing of Medicina as my second Bachelor degree. Metodology: a bibliographical research was developed as well as a personal reflective memorial, written freely. Results: Graduates enter the Medical course searching for greater personal and professional valuation, not achieved in the first course, especially better remuneration and employability. Although having completed a graduation brings benefits to joining a second one, such as the ease of studying and maturtity that reflects on inetrpersonal relationships, there are also difficultires, since many have already started a family or need to work.

    The Baja SAE project was created at the University of South Carolina, located in the United States of America, where the first competition was held in 1976. Later, the project started in Brazil, where it became known as Baja SAE Brasil . The Baja SAE Brasil project started its activities in 1994, in which engineering students from several higher education universities have the opportunity to apply the knowledge acquired in the classroom in practice. The participants of the Baja SAE Brasil project prepare a prototype of a off-road vehicle, going through all stages of vehicle manufacture, as well as design, manufacturing and instrumentation. This work focuses on presenting the entire process of developing the brake system for Baja vehicles, especially for the team at the Federal University of São Carlos. Therefore, the design of the brake system was carried out, taking into account several geometric aspects of the vehicle, seeking to achieve comfort, safety and better drivability when braking the vehicle. In addition, we sought a system that is ergonomic for the user, with less effort on his part, and a brake system that has an optimized manufacture and maintenance of some components, such as the drive pedal, caliper attachments and brake discs.

    This study aims to present an analysis of the presence of Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture (HCAA- initials in portuguese) in mathematics textbooks for the final years of Elementary School, approved and distributed by the National Textbook Program (PNLD) of the year of 2020. To carry out these analyses, the theoretical and methodological assumptions of John B. Thompson's socio-critical theory were used, thus, the focus of this work was the Symbolic Forms transmitted through the related themes of the HCAA present in the textbooks of the analyzed collections. In this research, the construction of a historical panorama about the black people in Brazil was carried out, approaching their struggles and achievements in the educational and legislative scope, as well as an analytical reflection on the role of the PNLD, as an educational policy, observing its dimension in the process of valuing the contents of the HCAA in textbooks. The general basis of this analysis was based on 104 excerpts found in textbooks, which cover images, texts and activities related to the HCAA. For this purpose, the typical forms of Thompson's (1995) symbolic construction were used: legitimation, dissimulation, unification, fragmentation and reification. The results obtained referred to the typical strategies of ideology operation, in which the symbolic constructions reinforce asymmetrical and discriminatory relationships. The need for an improvement in the approach to teaching the HCAA in mathematics textbooks is highlighted, which reconsiders its representation from the perspective of the National Curriculum Guidelines for the Education of Ethnic-Racial Relations and for the Teaching of Afro-Brazilian and African History and Culture (DCNERER).

    This dissertation is a result of the research that had as main objective to analyze the Paulista Curriculum of History in the Elementary School stage in the light of Paulo Freire's pedagogy, seeking to identify distances and approximations of the Freirean conception of curriculum from the categories concrete reality, dialogue and praxis. The relevance of this research lies in the fact that the Currículo Paulista de História is a prescriptive document for the pedagogical practices developed in the classroom by teachers and students of the Public Education Network of the State of São Paulo. Through a qualitative approach, we resorted to bibliographic research and document analysis, establishing the Discursive Textual Analysis as a method of document analysis, aiming to understand how the consolidation of History as a school discipline took place from the process of constitution of its curricula and programs, what are the characteristics of the Traditional, Critical and Post-Critical curricula, the foundations of Paulo Freire's critical curriculum and what are the distances and approximations of the Paulista Curriculum of History, of the Freirean critical curriculum conception. For this understanding, we turn to the works of Bittencourt (2010), Abud (2004), Júnior (2013), Mathias (2011), Nadai (1993), Toledo (2005), Santos (2009), Fonseca (2003), Goodson (1997), Silva (2005), Sacristán (2013), Moreira and Tadeu (2011), Lopes and Macedo (2011), Moraes (2003), Lüdke and André (2018) and Chizzotti (2006). At the same time, we used the works Pedagogy of the Oppressed (2019), Extension or Communication? (2020) and Cultural Action for Freedom and other writings (2006) to support Freire's analytical categories concrete reality, dialogue and praxis. The main results of the research show that the Paulista Curriculum of History does not approach the conception of a critical Freirean curriculum, as it does not contemplate in a clear and objective way the categories concrete reality, dialogue and praxis, approaching more of a perspective of Traditional Curriculum, by acting as a guiding and prescriptive document of content and practices for students and teachers.

    Milk production stands out in the world economy. In the last twenty years, its production has increased by 340 million tons. However, there is a concern about the environmental impacts of cattle raising activities. For example, milk production is considered one of the main sources of greenhouse and gas emissions, in addition to that other impacts can be harmed for the environment. Thus, sustainability assessment tools are essential to contribute to sustainability on dairy farms. On top of that, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is considered the main technique used for determining the environmental profile of products. However, there are still gaps concerning the assessment of product’s impacts from the perspective of Ecosystem Services (ES), especially when the production activity demands the use of natural resources, this has being an aspect that can interfere in the provision of ES. The aim of this study is to determine the Net Environmental Performance (NEP) of different dairy production systems. Consequently a case study was conducted in a farm characterized as confined compost barn, located in the southwest of the state of São Paulo, using 1 kg of raw milk with average fat (3.75%) and protein (2.97%) correction as the functional unit. A framework was applied to calculate the NEP by combining LCA with SE, where the ecosystem impacts and benefits were converted into monetary units. To interpret of the results, a scenario was performed to compare the system studied together with confined and semi-confined milk production systems in the regions of Paraná and Minas Gerais. The NEP was calculated only for a gate-to-gate system view, presenting an average value of R$ -0.05 BRL/kg FPCM milk, for the case study system. The other milk production scenarios in Brazil also presented negative NEP, meaning that the environmental impacts were greater than the benefits generated on each system. Finally, it is feared that the steps developed in this study for the calculation of the DAL can be used in further case studies considering also an ecological, SE-oriented view and from a more completed perspective in the product life cycle view, i.e. cradle-to-grave.

    Introduction: Patient safety is a global health problem and the patient, in this context, becomes an active member, more aware and empowered of their rights and responsibilities as a consumer of health services, contributing to the improvement of quality, safety assistance provided and success in their treatment. Objective: To analyze the effectiveness of an educational intervention on patient safety in the self-care and self-efficacy of hospitalized patients. Methods: Quasi-experimental research (ReBEC registration nº RBR-8gzp4f4) with a non-equivalent control design, comprising 2 steps: 1) Scope review, in the WOS, PubMed, CINAHL and LILACS databases, without period limitations, with the objective of supporting the construction and validation of educational material on patient safety by following specific guidelines for the elaboration of educational health materials and consulting 5 experts in the area of interest; 2) Educational intervention on patient safety, carried out at the HU-UFSCar and Santa Casa de Araraquara, with patients hospitalized in the medical and surgical clinic wards. Participants were divided into two groups: CG (control group), which received usual care from hospital institutions and GI (intervention group), which participated in an educational intervention on patient safety; the collection occurred first in the CG and after the end, in the IG. The variables analyzed were self-care and self-efficacy, in two moments: first – up to 96 hours after hospital admission and the second – from 24 to 96 hours after usual care or educational intervention. Both outcome variables underwent a normality test. For qualitative variables, the chi-square test was used; the Mann Whitney test was applied for those with two classes and the Kruskall Wallis test with post Bonferroni test for the variables with more than two classes. In the evaluation of the CG and IG before and after the educational intervention, the Generalized Linear Models were used. Results: In the first stage of the study, scope review, 3237 articles were found, of which 53 met the inclusion criteria and constituted the final sample; the articles were analyzed and categorized according to the information relevant to the patients regarding: 1) Fall Prevention; 2) Correct Identification of the Patient; 3) Medication Safety and; 4) Hand Hygiene. Based on the results of the scoping review and on the assumptions of health literacy, the educational booklet “Patient Safety: important information for patients and caregivers about hand hygiene, preventing falls, correct identification and flawless medication” was proposed, which obtained an index content validity of 0.98. In the second stage, a total of 158 health users participated in the study, with 79 in the control group and 79 in the intervention group. It was observed that there is no association between sociodemographic characteristics and the control group and intervention group (p > 0.05) and a statistically significant difference between the variables antecedent of diabetes (p = 0.003) and other health history (p = 0.012). The intervention group obtained higher scores in the levels of self-care and self-efficacy (p=0.001 and p=0.033) than the control group and after the educational intervention and usual care, the levels of self-efficacy showed statistically higher results (p=0.026). Conclusions: In conclusion, the results presented in this thesis showed that the educational intervention in patient safety, with the educational booklet “Patient Safety: important information for patients and caregivers about hand hygiene, preventing falls, correct identification and medication without fail”, is an effective strategy to increase the self-efficacy and self-care of hospitalized patients.

    Introduction: According to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), it is estimated that in Brazil, in 2060, the elderly population aged 65 years and over will account for 25.5% (58.2 million elderly people), in relative to world population. Thus, as a consequence of population aging, the number of elderly people in urban areas has increased. The diversity of each area is due to the difference in territorial, social, economic and cultural extension. Thus, the increase in population longevity, despite representing a major milestone in society, is accompanied by great questions, as it portrays an audience with unique needs, changes in physical and cognitive abilities, changes in family arrangements and changes regarding social support. It is natural that issues related to this age group arise, such as: social issues, housing and specific needs that this profile demands. Therefore, the question is raised about what is available in the academic literature to date on these three aspects: housing, elderly and participation. Objective: To carry out a narrative review of the literature related to the theme adequate housing and social participation of the elderly. Methodology: This is a narrative review of literature, narrative and qualitative review articles. Data collection took place in the year 2021, between the months of November and December. The literature found is in the following electronic databases: International Literature on Health Sciences (MEDLINE), Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences (LILACS) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO). The following descriptors were used: housing; old man; participation. Result: Of the 40 references found, initially, only two studies were able to meet the adopted criteria. Conclusion: We observed the lack of theoretical material on the three factors together, even though each factor is inseparable. Therefore, there is a very large impact of the three factors together: ambience, housing and age group.

    Introduction: Violence against children and adolescents involves a complexity of factors. Family negligence is included in the violation of rights and is found in an associated way, but it is often disregarded for not having physical consequences and for conceptual inconsistency. Objectives: to understand the meanings attributed to negligence against children from the perspective of families involved in this phenomenon accompanied by a Guardianship Council. Methodology: Qualitative study anchored in the Complex Paradigm, carried out with 20 authors of family neglect, referenced by the Guardianship Council. The research was carried out through a semi-structured interview and a field diary in the period of January 2021. Data analysis took place through the classification and organization of data in reference frames and establishment of relationships between the data. Results and Discussion: Two thematic categories entitled “Care and Negligence” and “Historicality and Negligence” were listed. The first showed that there are elements that understand negligence in a simplifying and normative logic, pointing out the woman as guilty of the practices of violence. This is placed as a process, needing to be seen in a multidimensional aspect. The second revealed the historical and learned character of not caring, denoting the absence of public policies to protect children and adolescents from perpetrators of neglect. There are elements that demonstrate a search for overcoming the path lived, still without interprofessional and intersectoral support. Conclusion: The multidimensionality of family neglect requires effective actions from the protection network; as long as there are insufficient and lame public policies, labeling those responsible as solely guilty of a violation of rights is irresponsible and inconsequential. The importance of seeking to make public policies and interprofessional actions effective in the context of coping, mapping and preventing violence in intrafamily relationships is reiterated, especially by Primary Health Care teams.

    The presented paper intends to investigate the main specificities of the languages adopted in comics and how they act when connecting the student during the reading with several human feelings, as fun or as an object of emotion, thus becoming a strong ally to teaching in the formation of readers. Based on this premise, a qualitative research was established based on keywords, where it was possible to establish the state of the art. With the methodology established, the work aims to present the many ways to identify concepts and specificities that are adopted in the sequential art, enabling to contribute to the possibility of application and development of a project of construction of comics, prepared in the classroom. Besides learning how the stories should be established so that the reading is fluid, the help of technology should also be addressed for the elaboration of framing and sequence, thus enabling the students of a class to make an authorial comic book, thus making them idealizers of their ideas. This work has the interest of contributing directly to the formation of new readers, to demonstrate the enormous contribution that comics bring to education, to inform the teacher of the necessary rules for the elaboration of activities, to update the teacher about the technologies that can help him/her, and to enable new discussions about the approached theme. All the content presented has as a result a practice that can be developed in future projects, thus remaining as a suggestion for future projects focused on education.

    The family institution is the first social nucleus present in the life of the individual and contributes fundamentally as a central reference point in the process of human development. However, since it is formed by several members that acts in its subjective constitution, it is recommended that investigations involving the family delimit the focus on existing relationships. For this reason, the intention of this research was to investigate the representations about giftedness through the parental figure, that is, the father, mother or other responsible adult, who assumes the role of ensuring the care, education and development of children. Assuming that raising a child with atypical development is a challenge, the guiding question of the research was: what do parents think about the giftedness indicated in their children? The main objective was to know the parental representation about the giftedness displayed in their children. The specific objectives were: a) to verify and analyze the meanings attributed by the participants to the giftedness and; b) to point out how the parental representation about the giftedness can interfere in their children's lives. For this purpose, the research was set up with a descriptive approach and adopted the Collective Subject Discourse methodology for the treatment of the data collected in a qualitative and quantitative way, describing the individual’s thoughts collectively and evaluating the degree of sharing and distribution of this thought in the group. To collect the data, the semi-structured interview was used and the sample consisted of nine (9) mothers of preschool children with giftedness. The results indicated that parents' representation about giftedness involves knowledge produced by common sense, which changes in relation to the identification of giftedness in the child. Feelings such as fear and worry are present in the lives of these parents, especially by comparison with personal experiences lived, which may interfere with the child's education. Furthermore, it was possible to verify from the selected sample the recognition of characteristics of giftedness by the participants in themselves and in close relatives after the identification of the children. The social relevance of the research is justified by the importance of the family in the education and socio-emotional development of children. Thus, knowing the aspects involved in having children identified with high potential can contribute to advances in the field, in addition to guiding the development and implementation of work involving preschool children indicated with giftedness and their family, in schools and centers and associations that serv this public.

    The use of composite materials in the manufacture of products has grown in several sectors of the industry, which promotes research and development aimed at the improvement of these materials. However, the machining conditions imposed in the manufacturing process of a material are determining factors in the final quality of the product, due to structural changes resulting from cutting forces, vibrations and temperature, in addition to other interference generated by the process in the surface finish of the machined part. . Thus, the research project in question proposes a comparative study through combinations, involving different rates of feed speed during the machining process used in the milling of parts in CFRP laminates, a material widely used in the aeronautical manufacturing industry. Analyzes were carried out regarding the integrity of the CFRP laminate, in relation to the surface finish and delamination conditions of the composite, caused by the imposed machining conditions. At the same time, the level and characteristics of the mechanical vibration exerted in the milling were monitored, according to the different parameters of feed speed adopted, in order to allow a correlation between the different variables applied in the process. CFRP laminated specimens were milled at different feed rates keeping constant rotation, on a Romi D800 CNC machining center. During the milling process, mechanical vibration signals were captured with a MEMS ADXL335 triaxial accelerometer fixed to the milled part. A rhombic-type end mill was used during machining. To evaluate the structural results obtained on the machined surface of the milled parts, the scanning electron microscopy technique was used, showing the best finish of the machined surface with higher cutting feed rates.
