GESTÃO EDUCACIONAL: O CONTEXTO ATUAL DA ADMINISTRAÇÃO ESCOLAR

O presente trabalho é resultado da pesquisa monográfica que buscou compreender o plano de gestão do cotidiano escolar da unidade de ensino de uma escola publica municipal de ItapetingaBA. Pretendemos abordar gestão escolar e permitir pensar em gestão no sentindo de gerir uma instituição, estudando estratégias do cotidiano com a finalidade de uma democratização da gestão educacional. Um dos referenciais teóricos que impulsionou um embasamento sobre o tema foi Libâneo (2005), que desenvolveu estudos sobre a importância da gestão educacional para as práticas do cotidiano escolar, apontando que a gestão favorece tanto o funcionamento físico de uma unidade de ensino bem como as relações pessoais entre os sujeitos envolvidos no processo escolar. Luck (2006) aborda que a gestão democrática participativa no processo educacional só se modifica e se torna mais eficiente na medida em que seus participantes se conscientizem de que são responsáveis pelo mesmo. Libâneo aborda uma concepção da gestão democrático-participativa, defende uma forma coletiva de tomada de decisões, onde cada pessoa deve se responsabilizar por sua parte, admitindo a avaliação sistemática. Sendo assim a gestão democrática participativa demanda uma mudança de pensamento de todos os participantes da comunidade escolar por permitir a construção de ações articuladas e resistentes; ações de trabalho coletivo. Segundo Lück (2000, p. 11), gestão escolar:
Assessment of the Influence of Rainfall and River Discharge on Sediment Yield in the Upper Tana Catchment in Kenya

Sediment yield in the Upper Tana Basin in Kenya has implications on the sustainability of Hydro-Electric Power (HEP) dams and water resources development projects. Therefore, a study was undertaken in the basin to establish the extent to which rainfall and river discharges influence the sediment yield in the catchment. The study was based on hydrological data obtained from the Water Resources Management Authority (WARMA) and Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD). The river discharge data was obtained from three RGS Maragua (4BE01), Gura (4AD01) and Tana Sagana (4BC02) and rainfall data was obtained from Sagana Fish Farm and Nyeri Ministry of Works for the of period 1960-2013.The study also applied the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) Model to determine the extent to which the model can be used to simulate streamflow and sediment yield in the basin. The results of the study showed that there is a significant variability in streamflow and sediment yield in the Upper Tana Basin. In the period between 1960 and 2015, the mean total annual river discharge of Tana Sagana was 128 m3s-1, and the maximum and minimum river discharges were 29.94 m3s-1 and 3.15 m3s-1, respectively. There was an indication of increasing trend in rainfall and subsequently sediment yield in the basin, which may be attributed to alteration of land use and climatic change. The results showed that SWAT model was quite good in simulating the variability of river discharge. The analysis revealed a poor relationship between sediment yield and rainfall. However, the relationship between rainfall and stream flow was strong with r value of 0.9 which is significant at p=0.05. Relationship between simulated and observed river discharge had a R2 of 0.442, r of 0.665 and NSE of -89.43. The relationship between simulated and observed sediment yield had a R2 of 0.733, r of 0.86 and NSE of 0.69. The results of this study showed that SWAT model can be used to predict sediment yield in the Upper Tana catchment. The model had good performance when daily rainfall, stream flow and sediment yield data were used. Thus, the model can be used to establish the relationship between rainfall, discharge, and sediment yield in a highly human-impacted tropical catchment area. The study puts also forward various recommendations on land and water resources management in the basin.

This study uses a netnography method to observe Facebook account of Indonesian netizens that are voicing anti-LGBT expression. The results show that the new media is not value free. Administrators of the new media, in this case are administrators of Facebook community, have their own values. Those who are not in line with the value of the Facebook community had their contestation with the administrator's values removed.
Improving product classification through product family segregation

Information sources are invaluable when taking decisions in Product design especially at the front end of the design process. Product families if properly classified, the connectivity of product form and interaction of the features assist the designer in taking good decisions. This paper addresses product classification from the design perspective with respect to Product family as reflected by the product's presence in the market. Ten different models for a product (Wheelchair) was randomly selected and recorded. The choice of the product has no specific implication other than to demonstrate the practicability of this approach. TRIZ principles were employed to perform a 3-level component segregation on each model. A matrix is thereafter drawn for the product family. The models are recorded on the horizontal axis of the matrix while their corresponding features are recorded on the vertical axis. The frequencies of the models and corresponding features are noted on the right hand side of the table. The frequencies were then taken through cluster analysis using the dendrogram on SPSS 20. The result shows the features categorized into three groups which reveals the commonality and association of the features that are Basic, Performance or Luxury according to customers' satisfaction. This approach also shows a quick method that can ease product design decision making because it is systematic and can be used to dissect and analyze products within a product family. This approach can lead to functional analysis, product design specification preparation and product development.

Measuring Health Inequality and Health Opportunity

The paper considers the measurement of health opportunity with categorical data of health status. A society's health opportunity is represented by an income-health matrix that relates socioeconomic class with health status; each row of the matrix corresponds to a socioeconomic class and contains the respective probability distribution of health. In the first part of the paper, we formally demonstrate an important limitation in applying standard inequality criteria to distributions of health: without specifying the cardinal value for each health status, it is impossible to em- ploy Lorenz dominance in measuring health inequality. In the second part of the paper, we argue that it is a more sensible approach to measure in- equality of health opportunity. By introducing a monotone assumption on the income-health matrix, we derive a sequence of welfare-dominance con- ditions for health-opportunity comparisons. We then obtain dominance conditions for Lorenz curve-based inequality-rankings of health opportu- nities. Finally, we apply the results to compare health opportunities in the US and Canada using the newly released JCUSH data.
A ~400 ka supra-Milankovitch cycle in the Na, Mg, Pb, Ni, and Co records of a ferromanganese crust from the Vityaz fracture zone, central Indian ridge

Abstract. A ~400 ka (kilo years) supra-Milankovitch cycle, recorded in the sodium, magnesium, lead, nickel and cobalt contents of a 32 mm thick ferromanganese crust from Vityaz fracture zone, central Indian ridge is reported here. To arrive at the geological ages, we used both 230Thexeccs and Co-chronometric datings. The correlation coefficient between the 230Thexeccs based dates and Co-chronometric dates for the top 0–8 mm is very high (r=0.9734, at 99.9% significance). The cobalt chronometric age for the bottom most oxide layer of this crust is computed as 3.5 Ma. Red-fit and multi-taper spectral analyses of time series data revealed the existence of the significant ~400 ka cycle, representing the changes in the hydrogeochemical conditions in the ocean due to the Earth's orbital eccentricity related summer insolation at the equator. This is the first report of such cycle from a hydrogenous ferromanganese crust from equatorial Indian ocean.
Investigation of adulteration of sunflower oil with thermally deteriorated oil using Fourier transform mid-infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics

Abstract Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy based on attenuated total reflectance sampling technique, combined with multivariate analysis methods was used to monitor the adulteration of pure sunflower oil (SO) with thermally deteriorated oil (TDO). Contrary to published research, in this work, SO was thermally deteriorated in the absence of foodstuff. SO samples were exposed to temperatures between 125 and 225°C from 6 to 24 h. Quantification of adulteration of SO with TDO, based on principal components regression (PCR), partial least squares regression (PLS-R), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) applied to mid-infrared spectra and to their first and second derivatives is reported for the first time. Infrared frequencies associated with the biochemical differences between TDO samples deteriorated in different conditions were investigated by principal component analysis (PCA). LDA was effective in the twofold classification presence/absence of TDO in adulterated SO (with 5% V/V of less of TDO). It provided 93.7% correct classification for the calibration set and 91.3% correct classification when cross-validated. A detection limit of 1% V/V of TDO in SO was determined. Investigation of an external set of samples allowed the evaluation of the predictability of the models. The regression coefficient (R 2) for prediction was 0.95 and 0.96 and the RMSE was 2.1 and 1.9% V/V when using the PCR or PLS-R models, respectively, and the first derivative of spectra. To the best of our knowledge, no investigation of adulteration of SO with TDO based on PCR, PLS-R, and LDA has been reported so far.
Moral Malleability and Morality Matching: Consumer Deviance in Response to Company Wrongdoing

ADVERTISING CLAIMS ABOUT SEARCH AND EXPERIENTIAL ATTRIBUTES AND THEIR EFFECT ON POST-TRIAL EVALUATIONS OF FUNCTIONAL VERSUS HEDONIC PRODUCTSCamelia MicuUniversity of ConnecticutThis paper focuses on understanding the effects of pre-trial advertising claims on consumers’ post-trial evaluations. Drawing upon message claim and adtrial literature, I hypothesize effects based on product type. For functional products, I expect search claims will generate more favorable post-trial evaluations than experiential claims, and objective claims will result in more favorable evaluations than subjective claims. For hedonic products, I expect experiential claims will generate more favorable post-trial evaluations than search claims, and subjective claims will result in more favorable evaluations than objective claims. I argue that product trial alone generates less favorable post-trial responses for both types of products.
DECISION-MAKING FOR FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS’ TECHNOLOGY CHOICE

The purpose of this paper is to present a method for decision-making support for technology´s choice in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS). The object is a manufacturing cell of the automotive industry. The research method is the qualitative-quantitative modeling. In the qualitative part, specialists in automation engineering created three technological scenarios for the implementation of the FMS. In the quantitative part of the research, six members of the management team used a multicriteria decision support method to distribute importance among competitive priorities and to assess how much each technological scenario can influence each competitive priority. The research also proposes two calculation methods for the final merit of the scenarios. According to both methods, the best scenario was the third one, based on the use of robots. The study also concluded that the adoption of the third scenario is better than do nothing, i.e., continuing with the current manual installation.
Carcass characteristics and meat quality of Holstein-Friesian  ×  Hereford cattle of different sex categories and slaughter ages

Abstract. When dairy cattle production predominates, the quantity and quality of beef can be increased through commercial crossing of beef bulls with dairy cows and creating herds for the purpose of beef production. This experiment was conducted to compare carcass traits in young bulls and steers, produced by crossing Holstein-Friesian (HF) cows with Hereford (HH) bulls and slaughtered at 15 and 18 months of age. One half of 32 young bulls were castrated at 2 or 3 weeks of age. Starting at 7 months of age, they received grass silage supplemented with concentrates. At the end of the fattening period, the animals were slaughtered, carcass quality and the quality of meat from m. longissimus thoracis were evaluated. It was found that unlike steers, bulls can be slaughtered at a later age because their carcass traits improved over time and carcass fat content increased only insignificantly. Meat from steers had higher intramuscular fat content (1.20 and 2.35 % in bulls and steers slaughtered at 15 months of age, respectively; 1.89 and 3.79 % in bulls and steers slaughtered at 18 months of age, respectively), it was tenderer and juicier than meat from bulls, and its sensory quality improved with age. The intramuscular fat (IMF) of steers was characterized by a more desirable n-6 ∕ n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ratio, whereas the IMF of bulls had higher concentrations of conjugated linoleic acid and n-3 PUFAs. Beef from steers is a good choice for consumers who appreciate high-quality meat. The results of this study may encourage producers to raise steers for beef.
Mesopause structure from Thermosphere, Ionosphere, Mesosphere, Energetics, and Dynamics (TIMED)/Sounding of the Atmosphere Using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) observations

[1] Thermosphere, Ionosphere, Mesosphere, Energetics, and Dynamics (TIMED)/ Sounding of the Atmosphere Using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) temperature observations are used to study the global structure and variability of the mesopause altitude and temperature. There are two distinctly different mesopause altitude levels: the higher level at 95–100 km and the lower level below 86 km. The mesopause of the middle- and high-latitude regions is at the lower altitude in the summer hemisphere for about 120 days aroundsummer solstice and is at the higher altitude during other seasons. At the equator the mesopause is at the higher altitude for all seasons. In addition to the seasonal variation in middle and high latitudes, the mesopause altitude and temperature undergomodulationbydiurnalandsemidiurnaltidesatalllatitudes.Themesopauseisabout 1 km higher at most latitudes and 6–9 K warmer at middle to high latitudes around December solstice than it is around June solstice. These can also be interpreted as hemispheric asymmetry between mesopause altitude and temperature at solstice. Possible causes of the asymmetry as related to solar forcing and gravity wave forcing are discussed.

Getting in the Mood: The role of mood in product design and interaction

Understanding emotion in product design and specifically measuring emotions is an area of focus that has gained substantial research attention. Mood research on the other hand, is limited largely due to the challenges presented by defining and measuring mood. While much of product research focuses on emotion, mood as a design criteria and technique is starting to gain interest in product development. Keeping users in a good mood is a valuable design goal. Products that offer detection, indication and inducement of moods are more likely to extend the emotional impact of a product. Understanding the broader experience surrounding product use can increase mood-sensitivity in design. This paper will illustrate how mood plays a vital role in product appraisal and will outline a taxonomy of mood with a specific emphasis on mood as an important interaction design objective.
Alterations in the Gap-Junctional Protein Cx43 under conditions of Ether Lipid-Deficiency

Plasmalogene sind spezielle Ether Lipide, die sich durch eine Vinyl‐Ether‐Bindung an der sn1‐Position unterscheiden und in lipid rafts vorkommen. Der Ausfall von Plasmalogenen fuhrt zu rhizomelischer Chondrodysplasie punctata (RCDP), einer seltenen vererbbaren Krankheit die in einigen Fallen auch von Herzdefekten begleitet ist. Letztere wurden in nicht-RCDP Patienten mit einer Herunterregulation und falschen Lokalisation von Connexin‐43 (Cx43) in Verbindung gebracht. Dieses Protein wurde in Ether Lipid‐defizienten Mausen in reduzierten Mengen vorgefunden. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war, eine mogliche molekulare Verbindung zwischen Ether‐Lipiden und Cx43 in RCDP Zellen sowie Ether Lipid‐defizienten Mausherzen aufzudecken. Wir konnten in unserem System nicht‐phosphorylierte und phosphorylierte Isoformen von Cx43 erkennen. Die nicht‐phosphorylierte Isoform stellt neu synthetisiertes Protein dar, wahrend phosphorylierte Cx43 Isoformen an der Zelloberflache oder in Gap Junctions eingebaut sind. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen eine Dichte‐abhangige Expression von Connexin‐43. Die Cx43 Phospho‐Isoformen waren in humanen primaren Kontrollfibroblasten mit der Dichte erhoht. Jedoch wurde dieser Effekt in Ether Lipid-defizienten Zellen nicht beobachtet. Zusatzlich waren in dieser Zelllinie die Proteinmengen von Cx43 im Vergleich zu den Kontrollzellen signifikant reduziert. Interessanterweise war diese Reduktion vor allem in den Phospho-Isoformen prominent. Zudem zeigten Immunfluoreszenzfarbungen, dass Cx43 an Stellen von Zell‐Zellkontakten lokalisiert, sodass ein kontinuierliches Signal entsteht, wahrend diese Farbung in den primaren Fibroblasten ohne Ether Lipide nicht zu finden war. Wir untersuchten auch die Raft‐Lokalisation von Cx43 durch die Isolation von Detergenzresistenten Membranen der beiden Zelllinien und fanden in Kontrollzellen den Grosteil der Cx43‐Phosphoisoformen in den Raft‐Fraktionen, wahrend in mutanten Zellen kaum welche anwesend waren. Die berichteten RCDP‐Falle mit Herzanomalien veranlassten uns zur Uberprufung von Cx43 in Herzgeweben von Mausen. Verglichen mit Wildtyp‐Mausen, waren Cx43 Proteinmengen in den Herzen der Ether Lipid‐defizienten Mause signifikant reduziert. Zusammengefasst deutet diese Arbeit auf eine mogliche Beteiligung von Cx43 im pathologischen Ablauf des RCDP an. Damit ist es naheliegend zu vermuten, dass Cx43 in den zugrunde liegenden molekularen Mechanismen der Herzphanotypen von RCDP‐Patienten beteiligt sein kann. Diese Daten beschaffen genugend Information, um detaillierte Untersuchungen zu rechtfertigen.
Residual circulation in the Bristol Channel, as suggested by Whoodhead sea-bed drifter recovery patterns

Des flotteurs derivants de Woodhead, largues en 11 stations dans le canal de Bristol, ont ete recuperes dans une proportion de 51 a 68%. Leurs trajectoires sont deduites des coordonnees geographiques a la recuperation ainsi que des durees de derive. Le modele suggere de circulation residuelle de l'eau au voisinage du fond represente le transport vers le large et vers la terre au milieu du canal et le long des zones cotieres, respectivement; il est en accord avec la prevision numerique des courants residuels dus au frottement de la maree. Le transport d'eau vers la terre dans la zone cotiere du canal de Bristol pourrait expliquer le transport vers l'amont des sediments fins. Ce mecanisme s'appliquerait plus generalement a d'autres systemes estuariens
Explaining the Joint Behavior of Employment, Unemployment and Nonparticipation

This paper argues that existing matching models with unemployment as an active search and nonparticipation as an inactive search predict counterfactual results: the unemployment rate is at most two times as volatile as the employmentpopulation ratio; only 20 percent of the actual volatility of the unemployment rate is accounted for; and the labor market variables are perfectly correlated with each other. This paper proposes a modified matching model in which workers are classified after matches take place. The modified model generates the direct transition from nonparticipation to employment with no assumption that nonparticipation is an inactive search and without adjusting the time period of the model. The model also explains the important cyclical features of the U.S. labor market.
