This dissertation discusses environmental injustices in the Municipality of Ribeirão Preto’s urban space, State of São Paulo. Based on the perspective that urban Public Green Spaces (PGSs) are capable of producing several benefits for the population that accesses them and of minimizing or mitigating adverse climate effects, the study considers such infrastructures as central in determining the scenario of greater spatial justice in the Municipality. Considering the history of the city's production in Ribeirão Preto and the different epistemological approaches related to socio-environmental inequalities, the work adopts various approaches of justice to review how different historical processes established the scenario of inequality that manifests itself in the contemporaneity. In order to establish the panorama of the configuration of environmental and spatial injustice in force in the municipality, it investigates how the social factors of income, race and housing typology become defining factors in obtaining or not the environmental benefits produced by Public Green Spaces. The study uses public information to generate its analyses based on geoprocessing tools and statistical analyses. Considering proximity to PGSs, surface temperature and distance from areas at high risk of flooding, these factors are highly correlated. As a result, income stands out, as the distance from PGSs increases, the temperature decreases, and the distance from flood areas increases. Regarding race, the white population stands out, being in areas with lower temperatures and further away from flooding. The housing results show how vulnerable populations are allocated to urban spaces characterized as areas of environmental risk. The study demonstrates how environmental inequality was formed in Ribeirão Preto, with the worst rates concentrated in the North and West sectors, as opposed to the South and East sectors, and, in this way, intertwines the terms “environmental justice” and “spatial justice” as terms associated with each other.

Despite the recent changes to the Brazilian high school curriculum and the various studies on the use of active methodologies in the educational context, lecture-based teaching still predominates in formal learning environments, especially in high school, where efforts are directed toward passing university entrance exams. The focus on memorizing large amounts of content as a requirement for entering higher education is one of the reasons why young Brazilians interrupt their studies, particularly those for whom entering the job market is urgent. This research evaluated whether it is possible to motivate students to continue their studies at the higher education level and to reinforce the learning of topics related to chemistry and sustainability through the participation of high school students in an extension project at the Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras de São José do Rio Pardo, using active teaching methodologies with the theme “The Sustainable Development Goals.” In the field of chemistry, concepts related to soap making and the project’s main topic were covered. The research on motivation was based on self-determination theory, in which meeting the basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness is essential for fostering intrinsic motivation, which is the most successful alternative for keeping students engaged with school and their own education. Data collection was carried out through content analysis of logbooks and questionnaires that assessed both the relevance of the information related to chemistry and sustainability and the students’ self-perception of their knowledge of these topics, establishing connections and interpretations about motivation related to their learning. The activities were planned to address these three basic psychological needs, and the main results indicate that the project contributed to learning chemistry, especially in relating the studied content to the students’ daily lives, as well as improving their sense of competence and autonomy in learning these topics. The proposed activities proved effective in bringing the community closer to the higher education institution; however, this connection could be strengthened through interdisciplinarity and a longer project duration.

Gender equality is one of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN). Worldwide, mothers face significant penalties in the labor market compared to men and women without children. These penalties affect career progression, employment opportunities, and the ability to remain in the workforce. This scenario becomes even more challenging after maternity leave, a critical period that can determine whether mothers continue in or leave formal employment. Grounded in Occupational Science, the overall objective of this study was to identify and discuss the support that companies can offer to mothers after maternity leave, from the perspective of these women. A descriptive, comparative, and longitudinal design was used, with a quantitative-qualitative approach. The non-probabilistic sample consisted of mothers employed under the CLT regime who took paid maternity leave (Brazil) and those who took maternity leave (USA). The instruments used for data collection were: the Job Satisfaction Scale, the Turnover Intention Scale, the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, and the Family Supportive Supervisor Behaviors Scale. These instruments were applied through an electronic survey at two points: immediately after returning from maternity leave and three months after that return. A semi-structured interview was also conducted via the Zoom platform, still within the first year of return from leave, with the same participating mothers. Quantitative data were analyzed using Generalized Estimating Equations, and interviews were analyzed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis. Data were collected between February 2022 and September 2023 for Brazil and between September 2023 and July 2024 for the United States. Results indicated that company support increases job satisfaction and reduces the intention to leave employment and that mothers prefer a gradual and planned return after leave. Possible actions of Occupational Therapy are discussed from the perspective of Occupational Science.

Multifunctional materials comprising ferroelectric and ferrimagnetic heterostructures, designated as magnetoelectric multiferroic composites, exhibit characteristics associated with both ferroic orderings. The coupling between the ferroic orderings in these materials is extrinsic and is mainly susceptible to factors such as synthesis, processing, connectivity, and the physical properties of the constituent phases. Consequently, the development of these materials presents a significant challenge in terms of achieving adequate homogeneity between the phases that comprise them. Different connectivities, including 0-3 (particulates) and 2-2 (laminates), are investigated to enhance the magnetoelectric coupling between these phases. Furthermore, chemical synthesis and non-traditional sintering techniques have been employed to produce composites with good magnetoelectric performance. The objective of this research was to develop lead-free particulate and laminated magnetoelectric composites from the 0.94(Na0.5Bi0.5)TiO3-0.06BaTiO3/CoFe2O4 (NBT-BT6/CFO) system using synthesis and sintering methods that provide homogeneity between the constituent phases, as well as correlating the methods used to obtain them with the physical performance of the materials developed. The particulate composites were, originally, co-synthesized in different compositions using the polymeric precursor synthesis method, promoting the crystallization of the NBT-BT6 and CFO phases in a single heat treatment cycle at 750 °C for one hour, resulting in the formation of nanometric powders with good homogeneity of distribution between the phases. Subsequent conventional and microwave-assisted sintering resulted in the effective densification of the bulk. The laminated composites were obtained from nanopowders synthesized from the constituent phases in different configurations of the NBT-BT6/CFO system. This was achieved by employing co-sintering and the hot pressing method, which represents a novel approach for this system. The dielectric, piezoelectric, and magnetoelectric behaviors were evaluated and correlated with their respective connectivity, where the composition containing 20% CFO stood out among the particulates and the laminates, the configuration with 2 layers of CFO and 1 of NBT-BT6 showed the best performance in terms of magnetoelectric response.

This study presents reflections based on Cultural Studies, the Cultural Curriculum, and their articulation with the knowledge of Motor Praxiology, in favor of the inclusive teaching of sociomotor sports such as handball, basketball, futsal, doubles tennis, rugby, and volleyball. The overall objective is to investigate how the articulation between the knowledge of Motor Praxiology and the principles of the Cultural Curriculum, anchored in Cultural Studies, can contribute to the teaching of school sports, with an emphasis on the inclusion of students historically excluded due to social markers of gender and ethnic-racial identity. It also identifies possible differences in practices that are closer to institutionalized sports games than to non-institutionalized sports games (reduced/simplified games). The research was qualitative, with characteristics of intervention research, and categorical content analysis was used. Thirty-three fifth-grade students from a private school in the interior of São Paulo participated. Questionnaires (open and closed), learning diaries, artistic production (drawings, timeline and reflective stickers) were used as resources to obtain the study data. The results indicated that sports games that most closely resembled institutionalized models generated lower participation and a greater sense of exclusion among students, especially when compared to non-institutionalized sports games (reduced/simplified games). When analyzing the data with a focus on Social Markers of gender and ethnic-racial identity, the non-institutionalized games, designed with intentional changes in their internal logic based on Motor Praxiology insights and in intersectional articulation with Cultural Curriculum principles, especially curricular justice, demonstrated potential for broadening student participation. Particularly noteworthy was the increased participation of girls, including Black and brown students, as well as a broader perception of inclusion in classes. The articulation of praxeological knowledge, Cultural Studies, and the principles of the Cultural Curriculum has proven to be a path that can be followed in Physical Education classes with transformative educational goals, as it values inclusive and reflective pedagogical practices in sports education at school. This approach can be explored beyond sports content to other motor practices.

This text analyzes the female writing of Lindanor Celina (1917-2003) in the works "Menina que vem de Itaiara" (1963), "Estradas do tempo-foi" (1971), and "Eram seis assinalados" (1994). Through a reading methodologically proposed by Schwarz (2006), we understand that the trilogy narrates much more than the formation of the character Irene in the 1930s and 1940s and the gender issues that we women share. Moving to a third level of reading, we find that the novels depict critical traces of the non-homogeneity of being a woman and, consequently, in women's struggles, especially regarding issues neglected to this day by so-called universal feminism, namely the different forms of oppression that a woman can suffer due to her female condition linked to intersections such as class, race, sexual orientation, geopolitics, among other aspects, as highlighted by feminist intellectuals like bell hooks (2019), Lélia Gonzalez (2020), Maria Lugones (2020), and others. Lindanor Celina's female writing, by portraying gender issues experienced by a diversity of women: poor (white and black), black, homosexual, and riverside women, allows for reflection on the mistaken idea that the feminist struggle occurred singularly, as it highlights how women did not walk side by side in the fight against patriarchy; after all, as Gonzalez (2020) reminds us, while white women fought for education, the right to vote, and work outside the home, black women took care of the homes and children of bourgeois women. By weaving her literary aesthetics from the standpoint of an Amazonian woman, geographically marginalized from the south, southeast, and central-west of the country, and by creating characters that depict gender problems unique to non-privileged groups, Lindanor Celina's writing presents its plural feminist power, as it does not succumb to colonialist tendencies that attempt to silence strategically marginalized voices.

In this dissertation, linked to the Graduate Program in Education (PPGE) of the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) - research line "Education in Science and Mathematics" - Mathematics Education Axis, we aimed to understand the attitudes, meanings and experiences of high school students in a public school in Minas Gerais in relation to school mathematics. Located in the field of studies in the Psychology of Mathematics Education, the intention of this master's research is to contribute to the theoretical-methodological field of the area by seeking to understand the reasons for feelings of avoidance and aversion to the discipline, constituted, from what we have seen in school practice, by the excessive focus on the application of procedures and rules in isolation. To this end, using a qualitative-quantitative approach, combined with Fritz Schütze narrative method, data production involved the application of a Likert-type Aiken Attitude Scale, translated, adapted and validated by Brito (2006) and, in a more qualitative way, after gauging the students' attitudes, we selected four of them so that they could narrate their biographies in terms of their senses and experiences with mathematics at school. In view of the research objectives, two narratives were analyzed, which made it possible to achieve what we set out to do: create a theoretical model for their analysis. In terms of results, it was possible, through the students' accounts and the existing literature, to see that the relationship between teacher and student; learning mathematics; and the phases of school transitions influence attitudes towards the subject.

Urban Parks are educational spaces, with environmental, social, aesthetic and cultural benefits, in which it is possible to develop environmental education and the responsible appropriation of reality through transformative actions, and it is necessary to know the perception of those who frequent these spaces. This study aims to identify the perception of the population that uses Urban Parks in São Carlos (SP) regarding functions, uses, connections between parks and community involvement, seeking to indicate subsidies for the advancement of the management of green spaces in the city. A survey of 5 laws and decrees referring to the administrative structure responsible for the management of urban parks was carried out, followed by 27 documents referring to the normative legal framework on green areas and urban parks, examining environmental education, functions and social participation, and finally, questionnaires were applied in 6 urban parks in the city, analyzing the functions, uses, connectivity, social participation and suggestions for improvements in the spaces studied. The results indicate that administrative functions regarding green spaces in the city are divided into at least three sectors of three different departments, which results in fragmentation and overlapping responsibilities. The notable advancement of the normative framework on this topic involves the publication of decrees to turn public areas into urban parks, although still without adequate infrastructure or the definition of issues such as connections between green areas or which public body is responsible for environmental education activities. Of the 180 respondents, 50.3% are female, the dominant age group was between 26 and 45 years old and they prefer to visit parks close to their homes. The promotion of leisure activities is the function most perceived (by 137 people), followed by environmental conservation (49), the generation of income (39), the contribution to people's health (37), a more pleasant climate (33) and the encouragement of educational activities (26). The suggestions for improvements collected mostly refer to structural issues, such as maintenance and improvement of equipment and requalification of sports practice spaces. In addition to this, there is a demand for more leisure options and better health and education conditions. It is concluded that urban parks have potential, as educational, leisure and social spaces, which can be better utilized through the continued advancement of legislation.

Discourse plays an important role in establishing different forms of power — this is even more evident due to the person’s social role. It is also through speeches that we can position ourselves ideologically, for or against certain issues and values. Based on these observations, this master's work presents an analysis, based on semiotics of Greimasian origin, of Sergio Moro's ethos, seeking to describe its main features and how it is constructed. For this, the corpus is formed from Lula's conviction sentence, when Sergio Moro was a judge, and also from interviews and statements given by him as a minister and senator, that is, as an outspoken politician. We seek to verify, by comparing these different data, transformations and continuities in relation to the production of ethos. The research is based, above all, on the reflections of José Luiz Fiorin (1996) and Norma Discini de Campos (2003) on enunciation and ethos, and dialogues with the works of Benveniste (1995) and Dominique Maingueneau (1995).

Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) adducts are well-established building blocks in organic synthesis, renowned for their reaction versatility. The ease with which their structures can be modified makes them ideal for the construction of complex molecules, such as those of pharmacological interest. When converted into carbonates, MBH adducts become highly susceptible to allylation reactions, often employing nucleophilic substitution methodologies. Photoredox catalysis, a highly relevant synthetic tool, enables organic transformations via radicals under mild conditions, facilitating the functionalization of the alkene portion connected to electron-withdrawing groups, which act as excellent radical acceptors. We explored this reactivity in two studies. In the first, we employed an organophotocatalytic protocol using 1,2,3,5-tetrakis(carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicyanobenzene (4CzIPN) to generate carbamoyl radicals from 4-carbamoyl-dihydropyridines (carbamoyl-DHPs), yielding 29 examples of polyfunctionalized molecules with up to 98% yields. The robustness of the protocol was demonstrated through monitoring experiments and scale-up. In the second study, we replaced the homogeneous photocatalyst with mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (mpg-CN), a heterogeneous photocatalyst. This new system was effective not only for carbamoylations but also for methylations, acylations, and non-classical glycosylations from 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs), exhibiting broad functional group tolerance across 50 examples of substrates, with yields reaching up to 80%. The reuse of the photocatalyst was also explored, showing excellent results and confirming the robustness of the adopted strategy.

This work addressed how society and the public changed the way they think about the LGBTQIAPN+ community due to their representation in soap operas shown on different Brazilian broadcasters. To this end, a historical approach to this community since the 1980s will be recovered. If before there was little representation and the characters were often portrayed in a stereotypical way, currently there is greater representation and fewer stereotypes. Although this topic has already been addressed in other academic works, the difference in this approach, in the Brazilian case, is the presence of other broadcasters in addition to Rede Globo. We sought to answer the following question: how did the public and society's thinking change in relation to the LGBTQIAPN+ community with the contribution of soap operas?

Popular Health Education as a public policy has become an important reference for the dialogue between knowledge and social actors in health practices. Occupational Therapy proposes a graduate profile capable of analyzing and acting in the relationships that make up the scenario of the populations served based on occupations, activities and daily routines. Thus, Popular Education in Health demonstrates itself as a possible theoretical-methodological and theoretical-conceptual tool for this action. In this sense, this project aims to report the experience of a student in Occupational Therapy and the influence of Popular Health Education in her training process. The specific objectives are: to identify possible skills and competencies developed from the encounter between the framework of Popular Health Education and training in Occupational Therapy; to analyze how the composition of Teaching, Research and Extension influences the learning guided by these frameworks; to understand what strengths, challenges and learning this experience reveals. A qualitative study was carried out based on the experience report explored by Bondía's theory of knowledge from experience. The data sources of the experiences in the Teaching, Research and Extension axes were analyzed through Thematic Content Analysis. The analysis was carried out based on three categories, classified based on the objectives of the work. As contributions, Popular Education in Health is complementary to several absences and/or concepts defined in a generic way in the National Curricular Guidelines or Occupational Therapy. They are also complementary when defending the transformation with the subjects based on the joint construction of what is common. It can be concluded that the work contributes to the reflection on the use of the Popular Education in Health framework in health training as a producer of a pedagogy of care. As well as with the construction of knowledge and methodologies in Occupational Therapy training based on the sharing of experience.

The aim of this study is to support an interpretation of the uniqueness of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's thought in the midst of the Enlightenment. Starting from the incompatibilities pointed out, we maintain the emergence of an ethical attitude that animates Rousseau's various writings, through which his ideas acquire a coherence, sustained by a philosophical orientation around problems that are articulated within the scope of his “theory of man”, more precisely, the paradoxical status of the conception of human nature and its inherent denaturation. In this working hypothesis, in short, the notion of perfectibility, as developed in the Discourse on Inequality, would have a paradigmatic place for understanding Rousseau's “system”.

The formation of the Brazilian population was crossed by processes that involve a series of erasures of forms of culture, knowledge, languages and rituals. Specifically in relation to the indigenous presence, even though it has transformed and become mostly urban, there are at least four categories of indigenous peoples in Brazilian society: The isolated, those who remain living in communities, but have had contact with the population non-indigenous for more than 400 years, those who had more recent contact, and the urban indigenous population, which is the largest of all. For indigenous people who live in urban areas and are LGBTQIA+ there is another layer that must be taken into consideration in social life: we are the country that is at the top of the ranking of violence for environmental activists and for LGBTQIA+ people, with a life expectancy of 35 years for transgender bodies. In this context, Uýra, an indigenous and transgender visual artist, occupies a position as a target artist. This threatened body uses performance, associated with other languages, to carry out artistic and educational practices. In this research, we outline the artist's profile, investigate which languages are adopted within the scope of decoloniality in dialogue with the notions of media convergence and transmedia narrative. In order to understand and raise questions about the theme of resumption.

This study seeks to deepen the understanding of female entrepreneurship or the relationship between gender and innovation in companies that are intensive in technical and scientific knowledge. The analysis of the discourse of female entrepreneurs in technology startups reveals that they face a series of difficulties, such as problems in seeking financing for their businesses, competition in the market and autonomy. Based on this assumption, this research consists of a bibliometric analysis of articles collected from the Web of Science, in the journal with a high impact factor in the fields of gender and entrepreneurship study: Entrepreneurial Theory and Practice. This first stage of the research allows for a qualitative analysis, in the identification of the themes, profile and location of the businesses, as well as a quantitative analysis in the following bibliometric parameters: authors (number, gender, institutional origin and most referenced authors), research procedures and methodological approach of the articles, and year of publication. In addition, in the second stage, two case studies were carried out in companies that are intensive in technical and scientific knowledge and led by women. The research instruments used in this phase are documentary research, with consultations of the Lattes CV and the Fapesp Virtual Library of the selected female entrepreneurs; and field research, with in-depth interviews. The data are discussed in light of the selected literature, as well as their possible implications for the national economy. The studies show that entrepreneurial activity presents challenges that are characteristic of gender, such as the difficulty of reconciling it with maintaining a home, romantic relationships and parental care. In addition, there are prejudices in this regard inherent in negotiations with clients, suppliers and lines of financing. In technology, there is also the aggravating factor of being a predominantly male area. Businesses led by women tend to be less profitable and long-lasting due to complex factors that are often visible only to those who delve into researching this topic.

The Neotropical region is recognized by its high biodiversity, from which Ostariophysian fish represent a group of wide diversifications. Among these fish, those that carry out long-distance migratory movements, that occur naturally during annual reproduction seasons in tropical basins, stand out. There is still much to investigate about how this behavior is reflected in the genetic structure of migratory freshwater fish, such as Salminus brasiliensis, a fish of economic and ecological importance popularly known as Dourado and whose natural populations have been reduced in the last years. Uruguay River represents an area subjected to intense environmental pressure caused by hydroelectrical dams, which constrain both the upstream movement to spawning areas and the passive downstream movement of egg and larvae to nursery and recruitment areas. Although the presence of dams could suggest the existence of a spatial population structure, previous genetic evidence of isolation by time suggests the hypothesis of the presence of reproductive shoals temporally different that could present genetic signatures of this isolation. Using a Genotyping-by-Sequencing (GBS) approach, Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms markers for 60 individuals of S. brasiliensis were assessed. Patterns of genetic structure were inferred using three datasets: (i) Total SNPs, (ii) putative neutral SNPs, and (iii) putative adaptive SNPs, and three sets of individuals: (i) Total individuals, (ii) Itá e (iii) Turvo, in order to test the pattern of Isolation by time described for S. brasiliensis. Clustering analysis using the total and putative neutral SNPs datasets rejected the hypothesis of isolation by time and suggest that dourados from both regions represent a panmictic population. In contrast, 121 putative adaptive SNPs evidenced four genetic clusters. These findings indicated that selection would drive a genetic differentiation between dourados from the upper and middle Uruguay river, resulting in a “Temporal divergent selection” with the formation of two potential ecotypes of S. brasiliensis: “Early” and “Late ” spawners, at the beginning (October-December) and at the end (January-February) of the reproductive season, respectively. By mapping our adaptive SNPs to an annotated genome assemble, those were identified in genes involved in functions at cellular level. Thus, it was suggested that our SNP markers exhibit an effect of “genetic hitchhiking” with genomic regions that are truly under selection, with the probable existence of “genomic islands” shaping the genomic structure of S. brasiliensis during initial stages of ecological divergence under high levels of gene flow. Overall, this study demonstrates the utility of genomic approaches by applying analysis of putative adaptive genetic variation when neutral data fail in revealing patterns of population structure in freshwater migratory fish species. Nevertheless, further studies including both phenotypic and ecological data are necessary to aid to identify management units that guarantee the conservation status of S. brasiliensis from the upper and middle Uruguay River.

Based on well-established literature in other languages (Böhm; Hennemann, 2014; Dendale, 1993, 2010, 2012; Kronning, 2018; Oliveira, 2013; Squartini, 2001), Lourenço (2016) and Mella (2020) consider that the future in the past (futuro do pretérito) in Brazilian Portuguese (BP) is a verbal form that can express not only temporal and modal semantic values in an utterance but also evidential ones. Since this value is much more related to the modal meanings of this verbal form than to the temporal ones (Câmara Jr., 1967, apud Freitag; Araujo, 2011), this study considers the term “conditional” (Dendale, 1993, 2010, 2012; Dendale; Coltier, 2013; Oliveira, 2013) more appropriate to refer to the object of this research: the reportative conditional (Kronning, 2012, 2018). Reportativity is an indirect way of obtaining information and, therefore, a type of evidentiality, characterized by borrowing the content from other sources (Kronning, 2018). By making this borrowing, the speaker automatically expresses the cognitive content of another individual in their utterance (Hattnher, 2018). With this premise in mind and based on the descriptions by Lourenço (2016) and Mella (2020), who attested to the conditional as a grammatical marker of evidentiality in BP, this study aims to (i) broaden the scope of analysis of the object and approach the reportative conditional not only as a functional phenomenon but also as a cognitive one, proposing to analyze it as a grammatical marker of viewpoint construction and perspective shift in discourse. Linguistic viewpoints are specific structures constructed by the speaker through various linguistic mechanisms, oriented toward a given discursive perspective (Dancygier, 2017). The main hypothesis is that the reportative conditional triggers the emergence of a viewpoint that alters the discourse perspective. This study also aims to (ii) contribute to the description of the conditional as a grammatical evidential marker in BP. To achieve this, it seeks to analyze, among other issues, the distribution of conditional occurrences across the considered uses, and, among the reportative ones, those in which the conditional is the only mechanism fulfilling this function in the utterance. Adopting the Cognitive-Functional Linguistics approach as its theoretical framework, to achieve these objectives, the research relied on a corpus compiled manually and composed of records from the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies and the Federal Senate, available on the respective websites of the Legislative Houses. The conditional occurrences were collected using the R Platform (R Core Team, 2023), based on the suffixes of the verbal form, and classified according to their use in each context, following Dendale (2010) and Vatrican (2013, 2014). Those that allowed for a reportative reading were analyzed according to (i) the person and number of the verbal subject and (ii) the verbal form (synthetic or periphrastic), which are morphosyntactic parameters, as well as in relation to the characteristics of (iii) the information source, a semantic-pragmatic parameter. Based on the theoretical assumptions by Kronning (2018) regarding the reportative conditional, the analysis of these parameters yielded results that contributed to elucidating the characterization of this phenomenon in BP. For its treatment as a grammatical marker of construction and shift in discourse phenomena related to viewpoint and perspective in this language, the study analyzed the interaction between grammatical structure and discursive context (Zeman, 2019) and the distinction between deixis and cognition (Vandelanotte, 2019). This analysis confirmed the hypothesis that the reportative conditional is, in fact, a grammatical mechanism of viewpoint construction, strategically employed by the speaker for semantic-pragmatic purposes, capable of triggering a shift in the cognitive perspective of the discourse.

Phalaenopsis is the main genus cultivated for the production of potted flowers in Brazil, with a rapidly expanding market that increasingly seeks technological solutions aimed at productivity and sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the viability of the stationary fertigation system called Nutripool for the production of potted Phalaenopsis, in addition to analyzing the development of the plants and the composition of the most appropriate nutrient solution. The experiment consisted of 8 treatments, 6 in the Nutripool system, divided into 3 nutrient solutions under two different ECs (1.2 mS.cm-1 and 1.0 mS.cm-1) in a 3X2 factorial scheme, in addition to an additional treatment with controlled-release fertilizer and a control treatment of conventional localized fertigation. The vegetative and reproductive development, as well as the physiological indicators of the plants in each treatment, were evaluated. In addition, the interaction of the nutrient solutions in the system was analyzed, with measurements of EC, pH and solution volume. The results showed that all treatments provided similar vegetative development for Phalaenopsis. Regarding the chlorophyll a and b content, the PP solution presented statistically higher values than the S4 solution, while the AC solution did not differ from the others. In the analysis of chlorophyll a fluorescence, no reduction in the efficiency of photosystem II was observed in the treatments analyzed. For flowering, the treatments PP 1.0, AC 1.2, AC 1.0, S4 1.2, FLC presented the best results, corresponding to the performance observed in the control (FC). In the analysis of the interaction of the nutrient solution, it was observed that the Nutripool system promoted an increase in EC and an acidification in the volume of nutrient solution deposited, mainly due to the physiology of the plant, but also due to the nature of the fertilizers. Furthermore, it was observed that the system demonstrated efficiency in reducing water and fertilizer consumption, presenting an average reduction of 58.33% in the volume of nutrient solution consumed by the Nutripool system, compared to micro-sprinkler irrigation, which is widely used in commercial production. It was therefore concluded that the Nutripool system has great potential as an alternative to the micro-sprinkler fertigation system, offering similar performance in plant development combined with a drastic reduction in water and fertilizer consumption. It was also concluded that, among the nutrient solutions evaluated, the AC 1.0 treatment solution was the one that presented the best results, exhibiting the same performance as the control treatment combined with lower fertilizer consumption compared to the others, allowing an even more efficient and sustainable use of the Nutripool system for Phalaenopsis production.

Educational games have been more used each day as valuable tools to help education. Unfortunately, educational games have many limitations relationed to budget and development teams, wich may result in unattractive games to the target audience. One of the main elements to a successful educational game is the engagement. To develop engaging games without sacrificing the educational objectives is an important requirement in the making of educational games. Therefore, this research has as objective, to define a set of design recommendations to the development of more engaging educational games, considering a diverse target audience. To do so, the first step was to conduct a systematic mapping of the literature about recommendations for engaging games and related tools. Relating the found concepts, it was possible to create a initial recommendation gruoup that was later refined with the help of researchers, experts on the field of educational games and also voluntary teachers. The final recommendation group has 76 items sorted by their process step, provided engaging element, benefited player groups, implementation complexity and professional type who has to fulfill them (including developers and teachers). To evaluate the developed recommendation group, a educational game from the Learning Objects Laboratory (LOL) was adapted following the recommendations and used in a case study that applied the game with students from middle school and high school. Said study compared the students’ evaluation and engagement in each version of the game. Through observation and the tools Egameflow (SHU-HUI; WANN-YIH; DENNISON, 2018) and SAM (HAYASHI et al., 2016), and interviews, the adapted version stood out for its higher conclusion rate, in addition to a higher mean of grades in the evaluations. Besides that, when interviewed, the voluntary teachers reported a improvement in the customization and application process when following the created recommendations. Therefore, it was possible to update the state of art about engaging educational games when observing that the recommendation group created had a positive influence over the development, cutomization and application process to provide engaging experiences with educational games.
