Due to the characteristic of legal opening, new Open Educational Resources (OER) can be created by revising (adapting) and/or remixing (combining) different source OER. Thus, OER expand the opportunities for creating educational materials better suited to a given target audience and context. In this sense, it is essential to provide means to assess and guarantee the quality of the source OER and the OER created so that the user has confidence and security when using a resource. Because of this, data provenance becomes relevant for the assessment of quality, as it allows the description of the history of an OER, from its origin to its current state. In the literature, there are different efforts to assess the quality of OER. However, data provenance is not considered for this purpose. In addition, there are examples of metadata standards and digital repositories that document the history of an OER. However, the information collected is insufficient to describe the provenance information and is not considered an evaluative strategy either. In this way, this doctoral thesis presents a semi-automatic approach, called QualiProcREA, for assessing the quality of OER based on data provenance. The QualiProcREA approach is formed by a Provenance Model for Open Educational Resource (ProcREA Model) and by provenance criteria and mathematical formulas for calculating the quality of OER. The ProcREA Model comprises a minimum metadata for describing the provenance OER and evaluating the quality based on this information. The provenance criteria considered are review and remix, as these activities directly impact the history of an OER. The validation of the QualiProcREA approach aimed to demonstrate that, based on data provenance; it is possible to assign an initial numeric quality value to an OER or to refine the quality value already assigned to a resource. Thus, the OER Commons digital repository was used for comparison and collection of information since OER evaluated and created through review are stored in this repository. Through validation, it was possible to demonstrate that data provenance can be used to refine the quality of OER that present a previous quality value assigned by evaluative strategies considered in the digital repository. It was observed that the numerical value of quality attributed through the QualiProcREA allowed a different classification of OER when compared to the ordering by quality performed by OER Commons. Furthermore, it was proved that, based on data provenance, it is possible to assign a quality value when the OER does not present any initial score. This advantage extends the number of evaluated OER that are returned through a query. Thus, any source OER and respective OER created by revise and/or remix can be evaluated solely based on data provenance.

Faced with the current scenario of education, where the teaching of mathematics takes place, each day more, in a mechanical way and far from critical thinking, the present work approaches a proposal for the use of the history of mathematics as a teaching methodology for the introduction of the content of irrational numbers and construction of the set of real numbers, based on reflections and discussions about the notion of infinity, for a ninth grade elementary school class, with the aim of building a meaningful teaching and learning process for students.

Technology Transfer Offices - TTOs are structures inherent to Science and Technology Institutions - ICT responsible for managing Intellectual Property - IP and Technology Transfer - TT. In Brazil, these structures are commonly called Technological Innovation Centers - NIT, terminology adopted by the Innovation Law in 2004. The ETT are responsible for implementing the TT strategies, that is, they develop activities focused on achieving strategic goals and objectives of ICT TT. Several authors in the international literature analyze factors that influence TT results, but few investigate the performance of the ETT, and even less its decisions about its strategic priorities. Thus, this thesis analyzes how strategic decisions of Brazilian ETT influence their TT results. For that, three chapters (2, 3 and 4) were included in article format. The first is theoretical and have the function of contextualizing the research themes based on the method of systematic literature review. The last two, in turn, are applied with statistical analysis (cluster analysis and regression analysis) to characterize the ETT studied and test the research hypotheses. As main results, in the first article it was seen that despite the growing interest in ETT, there is a greater concentration in studies that analyze strategy and performance and other topics such as human resources, financial resources and networking have fewer studies. With the second article, it was possible to organize the Brazilian ETT into clusters and analyze them, so it was seen that the best performing ETT cluster has a greater emphasis on attributes that minimize the negative effects of the characteristics that hinder the TT process, for example On the other hand, the characteristics related to the high turnover of employees (presence of scholarship holders or interns) and the lack of regular and frequent contact with research groups for prospecting patentable inventions did not declare the same pattern. In the third article, it was seen that strategic objectives oriented towards revenue generation positively satisfied both the results of new protected patents and new licensing agreements. They also indicate that the success metrics used to self-assess the performance of ETT obtained new licensing agreements in different ways. On the other hand, TT results related to invention announcements were not affected by any ETT strategic decision variable. This thesis makes a general contribution to the national and international literature regarding the issue of technology download in the context of the economies of emerging countries, which is still little explored since TT is a recent phenomenon. In this context, it is possible to understand the importance of ICT for Research & Development – R&D and to understand ETT in an initial stage of evolution. In addition, the thesis allows identifying which are the strategic objectives and success metrics that Brazilian ETT should prioritize in order to achieve the intended results in TT.

This study aimed to identify young high school students’ relationships with knowledge based on what they tell us about the science education they receive at school and their thoughts on what it offers them for their actions in the world. We adopted a qualitative methodological approach, using data collection instruments that enabled us to conduct group interviews and a textual elaboration – “Balanço do Saber” (Balance of Knowledge). By analyzing the young students’ manifestations, we took into account their voices, propositions, criticisms, ideas, and desires, which allowed us to reach considerations about the relationship they establish with knowledge, identifying the “Epistemic”; “Social” and “Identity” dimensions, which are from Charlot’s (2000) theoretical proposition, adopted by us as a priori categories. In the case of the “Epistemic” dimension, we adopted the three forms of epistemic relationship proposed by the author as subcategories a priori: “Objectification-Denomination”; “Distanciation-Regulation” and “Imbrication of the Self”. For the other dimensions, we created the respective subcategories: “My Eco-reflection” and “Me and the Other” for the “Identity” dimension, and “World as: Environment and Nature” and “World as: Reality and Existing Knowledge” for the “Social” dimension. We also analyzed the students’ statements about the science education they receive at school and their considerations about what it offers for their actions in the world, configuring the categories: “Thinking about school: ‘I should start learning what actually matters’“; “Learning: ‘I’m here in life, but what for?’”; “Learning: How and what?” and “Improvements and investments for Education and Science in the country”. Finally, we were able to identify central aspects of criticality in the young students’ manifestations based on our theoretical references, which shaped the categories: “Singularity: an important reflection for learning in science education”; “Mobilization: the action of caring for nature and the environment” and “Negationism and the Relationship with Knowledge”. At the end of this work, we have come to some broad conclusions, the main ones being that young students objectify and name knowledge, without making the processes for learning explicit; they relate according to a process of regulating their actions, according to the way they want to act in the world; their actions are inscribed in their bodies and this allows them to dominate them; they understand what themselves are, based on their conceptions of life and what makes sense in terms of their histories, interpretations and values; they imagine and interpret what others think of them and based on this they act, create expectations, interpret and live in a world that exists before them; this world is a place that already exists and is filled with knowledge based on an existing reality. They also say that school, on the one hand, should focus on and prioritize knowledge for everyday life, but on the other hand, it would have to meet external assessments; that learning at school means having to face your doubts, suspend convictions, and even resort to philosophical reflections on the meaning of life; and that investment in education and science in the country could increase the conditions for forming more aware, proactive citizens with positive attitudes. Finally, we believe that the concepts of “Meaning”; “Mobilization” and “Negationism” are relevant elements that bring criticality to science education, mainly based on education for science, technology, and society (STS), considering the latter as a considerable prerequisite for reflecting and stimulating students’ decision-making.

Understanding the work process of PHC managers in the context of the pandemic, based on the identification and analysis of the actions taken, the organization of work, as well as the potentialities and limitations from the manager's point of view, is extremely important for understanding the dynamics of the Unified Health System in emergency situations. The aim is to answer how the new coronavirus pandemic influenced the actions carried out by the local PHC management and how the emergency measures had an impact on the work process of the managers. Objective: This research aims to understand the work process of Primary Health Care (PHC) managers in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a qualitative, descriptive exploratory study, with data collection carried out through semi-structured interviews with PHC managers of a Technical Health Supervision (STS), in the city of São Paulo. Thematic content analysis was carried out in the light of the theoretical framework of the health work process in PHC and health management in PHC. Eleven interviews were carried out through the Google Meet platform, from which the following themes were constructed: 1) actions of PHC managers in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic: reorganization of the work process based on new actions, new strategies developed to optimize the work process and daily management for new work processes; 2) perceptions of PHC managers in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic: limitations and potential. The managers' perception of the process and work of the PHC teams during the COVID-19 pandemic generated knowledge for future health events, especially with regard to the reorganization of the teams' work. New flows for managing symptoms, information gaps, maintaining quality in the face of adversity and not interrupting care for chronic patients, the daily matrix of new processes, the illness of workers, motivating the engagement of professionals in their teams were challenges that had an impact in the work routine and also exhausted them, but at the same time made them develop valuable work tools.

Maranhão’s origin is bonded to the sea and navigation had and still has a very important historical role in the saga of occupation of this territory, as well as in its economic and cultural development and in the habits and customs of its people. The culture of artisanal vessels mobilizes the knowledge and language of naval workers, but at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, it began to present a risk of disappearing, since the new generations did not show interest in learning about it. In order to preserve and value this culture and the know-how of naval workers, Luiz Phelipe Andrès founded, in 2006, the Centro Vocacional Tecnológico Estaleiro Escola, in which master ship carpenters act as teacher-trainers in the Handcrafted Vessel Construction Course and they teach the new generations knowledge and construction techniques alongside professors from the university academy. Thus, this study sought to answer two guiding questions: How did a master naval carpenter become a teacher-trainer of the Technical Course for Construction of Handcrafted Vessels? What mathematical knowledge of the master ship carpenter is taught to new apprentices within the School Shipyard? For this, it aimed to understand (mathematical) knowledge teachers used and taught by a master naval carpenter in the Course of Construction of Artisan Vessels in Maranhenses within the scope of the School Shipyard. Specifically, it sought to understand the culture of artisanal vessels in the context of Maranhão; recognize the creative processes surrounding the creation of the School Shipyard; understand the process of institutionalization of the Technical Course for the Construction of Craft Vessels; identify knowledge of educational practice revealed by a master naval carpenter that allows identifying him as a teacher-trainer; and learn about the mathematical knowledge of the master naval carpenter used in the construction of artisanal vessels and taught within the School Shipyard. The research followed the theoretical-methodological assumption of narrative research, anchored in D. Jean Clandinin and F. Michael Connelly. The research texts for this thesis were written based on data from narrative interviews; notes from the researcher's field diary; of recordings and photographs recorded during the classes of the Vessel Construction Course; of documents from the Embarcações do Maranhão Project; academic productions by Luiz Phelipe and his interviews that are available on the internet; and documentary and bibliographic sources. The constitution of the plot, which considered the three-dimensional space of the narrative research, and the interweaving of the collected data made it possible to understand experiences lived by a master naval carpenter that led him to become a teacher-trainer at the Shipyard School and that the mathematical knowledge he taught are specific to their culture and were developed in the socio-cultural context of their group. It is from this knowledge that naval workers base their interpretations about reality, their intervention projects in it, their essential habits and their everyday behaviors. Throughout the research text and reflections, it was possible to support the thesis: the performance of the master ship carpenter as a teacher-trainer and the teaching of his knowledge, specifically mathematical knowledge, allow the School Shipyard's mission to preserve, value and transmitting Maranhão's culture and art of craft craft building to new generations, does not become just a utopia.

This work addresses a sequence of activities applied in a classroom, in a public school in the city of Bariri in the state of São Paulo, with numerous challenges, some of which are reported in the text. The work was planned to make use of several methodologies, each one applied and adapted to the needs of the room, taking into account the difficulties the room was going through. The statement already gives an idea that, in this work, the student was the protagonist of his learning and the teacher was the mediator of knowledge. The student was induced to go after knowledge, in several stages, so that in the end he could master the topics of coefficients, rates and indices.

Ilha do Bom Abrigo has as a characteristic related to management, the overlapping of institutional spheres, having a growing tourism, however, without planning and regulation. This study sought to describe the profile of visitors and tourism operators, the dynamics of public use, including the evaluation of regulars on the limit of use of the beach strip and the characterization of management performance in the territory. For this, remote questionnaires were applied to two study groups: (a) visitors and (b) nautical operators. The data were interpreted and submitted to multiple correspondence analysis and the description of co-management was based on consultation with the planning and ordering instruments and documentation of the Bom Abrigo Working Group. The profile of visitors with a high level of education, interests and expectations related to landscape and nature, indicated openness to the promotion of environmental education programs. The nautical workers are from Cananéia, self-employed and work in the sports and recreation sector. The context of conservation units existing in the municipality favor the understanding of the sector on the subject and should be the target of educational processes that include training and insertion in spaces of participatory management. The dynamics of public use consists of local tourism, whose beach and boardwalk are the main attractions. The lack of infrastructure and difficult access are obstacles to tourism, however, the prohibition does not reduce anthropic pressures, given the lack of inspection and the discontinuity of political articulation between the responsible bodies. Despite this, the institution of the beach as an area of interest for tourism is an achievement, whose definition and implementation of planning instruments are urgent and necessary. In the evaluation of visitors and operators, the limits of use of the beach strip include 30 to 60 people simultaneously, with 5 to 10 boats concurrently in the vicinity of the island and the average visitation time of 3 to 4 hours. These data can guide carrying capacity studies, which may be revised in the future, after the implementation of sanitation infrastructure, research and monitoring of physical and biological aspects, indicators of environmental quality. Long-term studies, reconciled with face-to-face diagnostic strategies, may also contribute to a better delineation of the profiles and patterns of public use in the territory, including the insertion of other key actors, such as fishermen and users of private vessels. The success of the process of construction and implementation of planning instruments depends on participation and social control, as well as the definition of competences and institutional-administrative attributions for the regulation of tourism.

En el siglo XIII, el movimiento llamado Culto Mariano floreció en Europa, que estuvo marcado por numerosas manifestaciones devocionales y artísticas en honor a la figura de María, Madre de Jesús. En la literatura, fue emprendido por el rey Alfonso X de Castilla y León, el proyecto de composición de las Cantigas de Santa María, en el que se narraron varios milagros y alabanzas a María. En esta obra, los compositores hicieron uso de diversos recursos literarios para crear representaciones de la figura mariana, también presentaban rasgos físicos y psíquicos bien definidos de la madre de Cristo, con el fin de exaltarla y exponer, a través de su ejemplo, modelos moralizadores de conducta a otros cristianos. En este sentido, partiendo del análisis interdisciplinario basado en los Estudios de la Literatura y la Historia, esta investigación pretende entender las representaciones simbólicas (CHARTIER, 1990) de María presentes en la literatura medieval escrita en gallego-portugués, de la obra Cantigas de Santa María, de D. Alfonso X, y analizar en qué medida estas imágenes se referían al imaginario social y al pensamiento de la época (CANDIDO, 2000).

The Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector has been identified as one of the main agents of environmental impacts. Within this context, it is necessary to adopt new strategies that make the sector more sustainable. Therefore, the integration between the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodologies has shown to be promising in supporting decision-making in the development of projects with lower environmental impact. Thus, the present research aims to carry out a survey of the different integration methods, evaluating their application potentialities and limitations and proposing general application guidelines throughout the design process. For this, a Systematic Review of Literature was carried out in order to develop a critical analysis of what has already been studied. In this critical analysis, it was possible to perceive that the methods developed by the analyzed authors, most of them dealt with practical methods for BIM-ACV integration, using case studies to evaluate what was developed. Several databases were used as a source of information, as well as the adoption of more than one for the development of a method. With these studies found of the approaches that contemplate a matrix such as the evaluation potentialities and methods based on the BIM-ACV integration proposals in the most recurrent and depending on the project. Thus, for the initial stages of the project, with the objective of only guiding the first decision decisions, an approach is suggested that uses plug-ins to perform a quick analysis. Already in the stages, they must be used in the design, it is to obtain more results and, therefore, more assertive in favor of the improvements of the methods calculated with precision. Thus, the use of visual programming routines with ACV export with 3D model promissory strategies are. For, in the last final stages of the project, due to the moment to seek the results closer to reality, they can still be used for the presentation of certifications and environmental seals. Thus, in this way, the same strategy of the phase itself is maintained or it can be even within the model's plug-ins configuration. All the strategies of the proposals present their potential and solutions, and their applications are viable in all types of projects. Therefore, it is suggested for future works to carry out long case studies of the design process, as the approaches evaluated here, in order to assess that they safely approach the results.

The implementation of autonomous mobile robots raises important issues when you want a robust navigation system to transport loads. These types of vehicles are often subject to parametric uncertainties and external disturbances. Parameter uncertainties usually arise due to extra devices or loads that are attached to the robot since they influence the parameters of mass, inertia, center of mass, and other parameters initially raised to compose the vehicle mathematical model. And the external disturbances are related to the robot’s collision with static or dynamic obstacles or in overcoming obstacles on the ground by the robot’s wheels, where skidding and slippage of the wheels can occur. Based on this context, the present work proposes a robust and adaptive control architecture for the trajectory tracking problem of a mobile robot subject to external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. The proposed approach will comprise a Nonlinear Adaptive Control ℋ∞ based on Deep Learning. The nonlinear ℋ∞ controller will be responsible for attenuating external disturbances, and the adaptive part will be based on Deep Neural Network for learning the parametric uncertainties related to the robot’s mathematical model. Simulation results of a four-wheel mobile robot for the tracking problem are used to compare the control strategies proposed.

One of the goals of Medicinal Chemistry is to discover new molecules with drug-like characteristics, which is challenging because the search space is discrete, unstructured, and enormous. In recent years, computation has been used as an auxiliary tool in chemical research, and one of the fields of computer science that has gained visibility and applied in various areas of knowledge in recent years is Machine Learning. The field of Machine Learning can be divided into several areas of study. In this research, two fields of Machine Learning are addressed: Constructive Machine Learning and Hierarchical Multi-label Classification. This work explores how Constructive Machine Learning can learn the intrinsic rules of molecule databases and generate instances with similar characteristics to these. The chosen Constructive Machine Learning methods for the study can be divided into two types, those that use the SMILES molecular representation and the methods that use graphs to represent molecules. Considering the different possibilities for evaluating methods and generated molecules, this work proposes the use of hierarchical classification in the evaluation process. Using a hierarchical classifier previously trained on molecule datasets, the generated molecules are classified into a taxonomy. In this way, the relevance of the generated molecules to existing taxonomies can be verified. This work also proposes a measure of dissimilarity between two groups of molecules, the hierarchical distance, which takes into account the taxonomy of the molecules present in these groups to determine the dissimilarity between them.

The central objective of this thesis is to analyze and understand how the process of education for citizenship and the struggle for the dissemination of human rights for children and young people takes place with and for the collective in the social practice of this group present in the Bloco EURECA’s activity/action (understood here as a continuous educational act of creating, recreating, signifying, and re-signifying). The Bloco EURECA adopts the concept of its own name: EURECA - Eu Reconheço o Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente, and the group was created in 1991 by the Projeto Meninos e Meninas de Rua/PMMR (Street Boys and Girls Project) in São Bernardo do Campo, in the São Paulo metropolitan area, known as ABCDMRR (which includes the cities: Santo André, São Bernardo do Campo, São Caetano do Sul, Diadema, Mauá, Ribeirão Pires and Rio Grande da Serra). Likewise, the Bloco's proposal brings social criticism in a playful, affectionate, dancing, and joyful way, based on the premise that social rights, as social or sectoral policies, are instruments or mechanisms that support the conception of the human rights "grammar". This research deals with this proposal and presents a reflection on the pedagogical political project, the methodology and the contributions of the activity/action and policies of this Bloco, which naturally perceives, defines, classifies, and positions itself as an insurgent movement around hope and the adoption of a new look and treatment for Brazilian children, especially those in situations of vulnerability, risk, and suffering. The subjects of the research are children, adolescents, young people, social educators, who conceive themselves from the understanding that democracy is constituted where human rights are founding principles in the construction of educational development, considering other grammars and alternative languages to the narrative of the typification of human dignity elaborated in the Global North. EURECA's sambas-enredo (samba songs), produced collectively, bring this dimension to thinking (human rights) and gestures (public policies). The context in which this activity is organized and developed is the result of the demand made by different civil organizations, projects, social movements, and other social sectors located in different geographical areas of the State of São Paulo. The methodology adopted by Bloco EURECA is based on Freirean concepts in dialogue with the theoretical framework of the Epistemologies of the South. This research is a qualitative case study. The case study methodology adopted in this research is in line with participant-action research, given the need to broaden the understanding of the phenomenon studied, which is configured in the experiences of violation lived in the daily lives of the Bloco participants. This crosses the categories of individual, group, social movement, social and political protagonism, allowing changes in the way children are seen and treated, as well as in the elaboration and development of their life projects. Data were collected through observations, field diaries, interviews, and the lyrics of the sambas-enredo (samba songs), which were collectively constructed, to study, in detail, the collective activity/action of Bloco EURECA, which has been going on for more than three decades. The development of the theoretical-methodological process of this work has the same guiding thread present in the activity/action of the EURECA Block: the theoretical-methodological framework of the Epistemologies of the South and Freirianism. The research addressed theoretical-methodological and critical concepts based on themes, such as the Irregular Situation Doctrine; the Integral Protection Doctrine; Estatuto da criança e do adolescente/ECA (Child and Adolescent Statute); Human Rights for Children and Adolescents; Education in and for Human Rights; Social Participation; Citizenship for Children and Young People and Carnival and Samba, considering that the paradigm shift in Brazilian legislation, since 1988, in relation to the construction, assimilation and conception of children, adolescents and young people, is one of the key factors in the creation of EURECA. The results show that the Bloco’s trajectory is based on the principle of social and citizen participation, which dialectically permeates everyday life and the world of ideas. The collective work process resulted in the collective creation and re-creation of more than thirty sambas-enredo (samba songs), in a process of action-reflection-action on the different forms of violation and violence suffered by children and adolescents in Brazilian society and the guarantee of their human rights. The possibility of defining EURECA as an insurgent movement around the adoption of a new way of seeing and treating Brazilian children in situations of vulnerability, risk and suffering is expanded and configured as a way of building political-critical awareness among its participants, starting from the relationship between the intention (the idea of human rights for children and adolescents) and the gesture (the materialization of the right).

Among the most common diagnoses in patients with shoulder pain are rotator cuff (RC) tears. Although conservative exercise-based treatment as suggested as first line in the management of individuals with RC tears, there is no consensus or evidence to suggest an exercise program for his population and many patients opt to do surgical tendon repair. Thus, it is important that the literature presents sufficient detail to facilitate the implementation of the studies’ findings in clinical practice, and also to understand which factors can influence patient satisfaction with the shoulder to help better clinical outcomes. This thesis is composed of three studies: Study 1: Objective: To compare two exercise-based treatment programs for individuals diagnosed with RC tears. Methods: Subjects with shoulder pain and diagnosis of atraumatic and degenerative RC tear participate in this controlled, randomized and blind clinical trial. One group performs an exercise with no emphasis on the RC and the other group performs exercise program with emphasis on the RC. The primary outcome is quality of life. Patients receive treatment for 12 weeks (2x/week). Results and conclusion: So far, 34 patients have been randomized. Partial analyzes are not appropriate until completion of the study. We expect to offer scientific bases that can help physiotherapists in the management of individuals with RC tear. Study 2: Objective: To evaluate description and fidelity of clinical trials with exercise-based treatment for the population diagnosed with RC tears. Methods: A scoping review was carried out through a systematic search in 8 databases (PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, LILACS, Cochrane, Web of Science, SCOPUS e SciELO). Clinical trials performed in individuals with RC tears confirmed by imaging were included. All studies should have offered some exercise-based treatment. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the PEDro scale (Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale). The TIDieR checklist (Template for Intervention Description and Replication) was used to evaluate the description, and the NIHBCC, (National Institutes of Health Behavior Change Consortium) to evaluate the fidelity of the implementation. Results and conclusion: Despite the adequate methodological quality of the studies, the description of interventions and the fidelity of implementation are reported unsatisfactorily. Improving the description and fidelity of the intervention will support evidence-based practice. Study 3: Objective: To understand which factors can influence satisfaction after RC repair surgery. Methods: Individuals who underwent surgical RC tendon repair completed an online survey. Demographic information, previous and current history were collected with questions about surgical approach, sleep quality, physical therapy treatment, satisfaction, in addition to questionnaires assessing shoulder pain and disability and kinesiophobia. A multiple linear regression was used to investigate the association between the independent variables and the subjects’ satisfaction. Results and conclusion: Sixty-three individuals (59.2±13.6 years, 79.2±12.2 kg, 1.68±0.09 m) participated in the research. Surgery was performed on the dominant side in 54% of subjects, and 38.1% considered themselves much better (+7) on the global of rating of change scale. People with high levels of disability and kinesiophobia were dissatisfied with the surgery.

This dissertation presents a pedagogical proposal based on the Mathematical Modeling method for the study of the quadratic function. Based on an experiment with the transfer of liquids by gravity between two prism-shaped reservoirs, the student will use manual and electronic resources to model the relationship between the heights of the liquids within the two prisms. According to the guidelines contained in the official documents: National Common Curricular Base, Paulista Curriculum and Curricular Reference of the SESI-SP Teaching System that guide the teaching work through the meeting of the necessary skills and competences for the integral formation of the student, we analyzed the presentation and the treatment of quadratic function teaching in high school, including observing the presentation in the Student's Notebook, of the SESI textbook and also, by sampling, a book from the National Textbook Program. Thus, this didactic proposal uses the method of Mathematical Modeling through an experiment, a simulator in GeoGebra, spreadsheet and activity sheets. The implementation of the pedagogical proposal was carried out with a group of 1st year of high school followed by the analysis of the results obtained.

Given the technology advancements in the aerospace sector and the increasing number of low-cost educational nanosatellite missions launched in low Earth orbits, it’s necessary to find solutions that enable communication between the ground and space segments. In order to occur the communication, it’s necessary that the antenna follows the satellite’s trajectory along the largest possible field of view. Therefore, this work proposes a conceptual design aimed to provide a solution for satellite tracking, so that the "tracker" is able to track a satellite in orbit in both azimuth and elevation. The design process revealed difficulties in finding appropriate components and, in some cases, custom components had to be designed to meet the objectives. Other challenges were faced in the interfaces between each subsystem, but technically feasible solutions were found and evaluated, whenever possible, based on design methodology theories, reaching the concept of the "tracker" product. Several aspects related to the project are presented and discussed, justifying the adopted solutions. The concept presented here proved to be feasible, assemblable and manufacturable, however, it still needs to be tested and further optimization of the mass and geometry of components can be done in later stages of the methodology, such as the preliminary and detailed design stages.

This research discusses the democratic management dedicated to the promotion of accessibility in contexts of postgraduate programs - PPGs. In recent years, the democratization of these spaces has culminated in the expansion of the representation of human diversity. Thus, among other challenges, PPGs have been urged to recognize and ensure the rights of people with disabilities at the time of entry (formal right), access (material right), permanence, and title. In this context, the present research had the general objective of identifying and analyzing factors that constitute the legitimation of the right of entry, access, permanence, and title of people with disabilities in stricto sensu graduate programs. As specific objectives, we have: a) to understand and systematize the offers and demands that people with disabilities present to institutional managers involved in PPGs; b) identify elements that support institutional guidelines for the promotion of accessibility in postgraduate contexts, and; c) approach the Institutional Analysis approach to the elements that indicate and configure the construction of accessibility in PPGs. In compliance with ethical principles in research, we carried out an exploratory and qualitative case study. Data collection took place at the Federal University of São Carlos - UFSCar, in the online modality, and had the participation of eight PPG coordinators (in ten brainstorm sessions) and two Pro-Rectory of Graduate Studies managers - ProPG (in three institutional meetings). The data were treated in light of the approach of content analysis and its analysis was based on the compendia of the theory of Institutional Analysis by Gregório Baremblitt. The results suggest that democratic management for accessibility depends on the co-responsibility of the actors involved, orchestrated in an interdisciplinary and intersectoral way, having as a guiding principle the materialization of the rights of people with disabilities (among servers and students) within any area of knowledge. In this sense, in addition to the dialogue established with the academic-scientific community, the research results bring some subsidies to improve debates and guidelines for implementing policies and practices of democratic management to promote accessibility.

Introduction: For a long period, the reality of Psychoactive substances abuse in Brazil was conducted predominantly, from a medical and psychiatric perspective, giving few spaces for psychological, political, and socio-economic perspectives. Brazilian psychiatric reform and the Brazilian anti-asylum struggle are important milestones toward the care and treatment of people with substance use disorders paradigm shift. Despite the emergence, a long time ago, of Therapeutic Communities and Psychosocial Care Centers for Alcohol and Drugs (CAPS-AD) as a resource for treatment of people with disorders related to substance use, there is a lack of understanding about the differences among these kinds of treatments and how it takes place. Background: A scoping review is required, due to a gap in the scientific literature related to differences and particularities of the treatments performed in Therapeutic Communities and CAPS AD in Brazil. General objective: Describe the scientific evidence about how treatments are offered both, in therapeutic communities and in CAPS AD, for people with disorders related to substance use. Specific objectives: Identify possible differences and similarities between the treatments offered in therapeutic communities and CAPS AD and understand how users perceive the experience of treatments in these different services Methodology: In order to recognize the evidence produced so far, a scoping review was carried out, which sought to bring a mapping of the literature in this field of interest. For the search, the databases BVS, Web of Sciences, Scielo, Portal CAPES, and PubMed were used. The terms 1 - “therapeutic community” and treatment; 2- “therapeutic community” and “user perception”; 3 - “therapeutic community” and definition; 4 - “CAPS AD” and treatment; 5 - "CAPS AD" and "user perception" e 6- “CAPS AD” and definition both in English and Portuguese were used for the literature search. For the review, it was included qualitative studies published in the period between 1986 and 2021, in Portuguese and English, from studies conducted in Brazil. To organize the studies, the Rayyan platform was used. The steps stated by the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews were used for the methodological organization. Results: 1582 studies were found, of which 1573 were available and, after the peer decision and conflicts resolved (using the PICO strategy), a final number of 14 studies were included in the review, with regard to divergences and similarities in the two distincts modes of treatment, similar contents were observed, such as the logic of abstinence and prejudice towards users who are undergoing treatment, but there are also quite considerable differences, mainly in the way in which both treatments advocate care for people with substance use disorders, with treatment in freedom and the harm reduction strategy (CAPS-AD) as opposed to treatment in deprivation of liberty (CT). Conclusions: Was perceived a deficit of qualitative studies addressing the mental health of users of these services, in addition, a smaller number of studies carried out in TCs was found. Thus, it is important to consider the limitations in terms of achieving the objectives proposed here. However, it was possible to observe some divergences and confluences of the perceptions of the users treated in the different devices, making future studies necessary to effectively compare the perception of the users about these treatments.
