Competência leitora na cultura digital e a biblioteca escolar: a contribuição do letramento informacional

Objetivo: O artigo pretende discutir sobre a contribuição da biblioteca escolar no contexto da leitura atual. A transição da leitura do formato impresso para o digital tem provocado discussões entre pesquisadores da área sobre a influência da cultura digital no cérebro humano, visto que a leitura em tela e o uso dos recursos digitais fragmentam o conteúdo e a atenção dos leitores. Método: Por meio da análise de vídeos do youtube realizados por bibliotecas e bibliotecários no Brasil, durante parte do período de pandemia do coronavírus SARS-CoV-2, os dados mostram que as bibliotecas escolares do Brasil, tradicionalmente, estimularam a leitura e continuam a fazê-la na sociedade contemporânea, mas além disso, preocupam-se também com a formação científica dos estudantes e o desenvolvimento de competências relacionadas à busca, à seleção, ao uso e à comunicação das informações. Resultado: A formação de leitores de 0 a 10 anos, proposta por Wolf (2019), foi comparada com os conteúdos de letramento informacional, transpostos por Gasque (2012), para a educação básica, considerando os parâmetros curriculares vigentes na época. Conclusões: O resultado mostra compatibilidade entre ambos (digital e impresso). A leitura profunda[1] em diferentes gêneros e formatos é considerada uma das competências a ser desenvolvida nesse processo. Nesse sentido, conclui-se que a coexistência entre o mundo digital e físico é essencial para que se possa contribuir para a formação intelectual e leitora dos estudantes.
Development of Innovative Business Parks to Foster Innovation and Entrepreneurship in the SEE Area

The SEE area has a low performance with respect to R&D, innovative activity and thus of competitiveness. Therefore it is crucial to establish frameworks to motivate SMEs for innovation activities, to bring them closer to R&D activities and to provide a favourable environment for them. As a response to that, many national and regional innovation policies in the SEE area aims to develop innovative business parks. However, the effectiveness of attempts to create or further develop such entity varies. Coordination, cooperation, flow of information, transfer of knowledge and best practice among existing business parks are non existing. Joint programmes or projects which strengthen cohesion within the SEE area to achieve a critical mass and international visibility are not in place. There is lack of standards which could serve as guidelines for establishing and further developing innovative business parks and its services in an efficient and effective manner. The main objective of FIDIBE is to develop standards, provide mechanisms of cooperation and exchange of experience, demonstrate best practice in the area of Business Park development.
N to K Uranium PIXE spectra obtained at the high resolution high energy PIXE setup

Abstract The CTN (previous ITN) high resolution high energy (HRHE) PIXE set-up facility was set in operation on July 2008 and upgrades were being implemented until late in 2011. The study of a pure UO2 sample and the mapping of geological sample are the first results where the whole range of possibilities has been exploited, namely the possibility of obtaining simultaneous spectra covering a very wide energy range of more than 100 keV. In this paper, the N-shell to K-shell spectra of Uranium is presented and discussed, as well as the details on the characteristics and capacities of the setup, including the automated X–Y positioning systems installed in the X–Y–Z sample support unit, which allows for the possibility of making macroscopic mappings of geological samples (Chaves et al. (2013) [1] ). As for the N-shell lines in the X-ray Microcalorimeter Spectrometer (XMS) spectrum, due to the lack of data (Zschornack (2007) [2] ), transition energies were determined using ab initio calculations assuming a closed shell U4+ electronic structure for Uranium prior to the ionisation by proton impact.
Effects of waste glass additions on quality of textile sludge-based bricks

This research investigated the utilization of textile sludge as a substitute for clay in brick production. The addition of textile sludge to a brick specimen enhanced its pores, thus reducing the quality of the product. However, the addition of waste glass to brick production materials improved the quality of the brick in terms of both compressive strength and water absorption. Maximum compressive strength was observed with the following composition of waste materials: 30% textile sludge, 60% clay and 10% waste glass. The melting of waste glass clogged up pores on the brick, which improved water absorption performance and compressive strength. Moreover, a leaching test on a sludge-based brick to which 10% waste glass did not detect significant heavy metal compounds in leachates, with the product being in conformance with standard regulations. The recycling of textile sludge for brick production, when combined with waste glass additions, may thus be promising in terms of both product quality and environmental aspects.
Population genomics of co-evolution between non-retroviral rna viruses and their hosts

Recent discoveries clearly show that non-retroviral RNA viruses, despite not coding for reverse transcriptase and integrase, can transfer genetic material to their hosts, similarly to DNA viruses and retroviruses. The distribution of non-retroviral integrated RNA viruses (NIRVs) in host populations, mechanisms of NIRVs formation and effects on hosts are unclear. The main objective of this proposal is to uncover the complex biological interactions between non-retroviral RNA viruses and their hosts using the model system “Aedes albopictus and Flavivirus”. This system is ideal because Ae. albopictus is a known vector of non-retroviral RNA viruses, including several highly relevant for public health such as dengue viruses (Flaviviridae, Flavivirus) and NIRVs phylogenetically related to Flaviviruses have been identified in its genome. First, a population genomic approach will be used to interrogate the genome of Ae. albopictus from different geographic populations at their DNA and RNA levels. This approach will permit the systematic characterization of the distributions of NIRVs in natural host populations, the analyses of correlations between the presence of NIRVs and viral infections and the description of NIRVs genomic context, from which insights on mechanisms of NIRVs formation can be derived. Secondly, tissue-specificity of the NIRVs, their trans-generational stability and impact on mosquito biology will be analysed in a controlled laboratory environment. Somatic integrations could contribute to acquired immunity to their respective viruses or establishment of persistent viral infection. Germ-line integrations could have an evolutionary impact. If NIRVs affect Ae. albopictus vector competence or the genome of emerging viral populations, they could be manipulated for vector control purposes. Additionally, results on NIRV distribution in natural host populations and mechanisms of NIRVs formation will have implications in medicine because several non-retroviral RNA viruses are emerging as delivery systems for gene therapy applications.
Distocia dinámica

Emmanuel A. Friedman propuso normas para el desarrollo del trabajo de parto hace más de 65 años, y estas normas han sido aceptadas a escala internacional. Sin embargo, es sorprendente que haya habido muy poca investigación sobre el trabajo de parto normal hasta principios de la década de 2000. En efecto, son los datos recientes los que han demostrado que las temporalidades del trabajo de parto han cambiado desde la década de 1960. Las notables modificaciones en las prácticas obstétricas y las características cambiantes de las parturientas han tenido, sin duda, un impacto significativo en el desarrollo del trabajo de parto. En el caso de Francia, las investigaciones realizadas en el siglo xxi han demostrado que la velocidad de dilatación es más lenta de lo que en general se aceptaba, sin que ello suponga un aumento significativo de la morbilidad materna y/o neonatal. Estos resultados han animado a las sociedades científicas y a la Organización Mundial de la Salud a proponer nuevas recomendaciones que se ajusten a un respeto más cuidadoso del tiempo necesario para el proceso del parto.
Actors of the Earth

Alpine territory between Cuneo and Nice has a unique cultural and landscape heritage, rich of natural spaces and specific cultures. This patrimony is nowadays threatened by various factors as the depopulation, the aging of the population and a little flux of come back toward mountain areas of a young population who doesn’t have a sufficient knowledge his own territory. From this observation emerge a necessity of a rediscovery of historic traditions, of cultural point of forces and various landscapes of this territory. 
From this, TERRACT project acts on Tende and Lombardie paths, Roya and Tinéé Valley. At the heart of the project is a training path for young actors of the local culture, in order to give them competences to tell and valorise the cultural, immaterial and natural heritage of the territory. 
Formations are based on a methodology named the Social Theatre of Community, a form of art with cultural, psychosocial and well-being finalities, involving actively local communities. This action offer a rise of awareness of the territorial richness in which they live, but also competences to promote it, in order to make them protagonists of a process of empowerment and social inclusion. 
Rediscovery, narratives and community are the key words of INTERRACT. The objective is to create a competences network and active new social networks, increasing in the same time the territorial marketing.
Alumina thin films prepared by direct liquid injection chemical vapor deposition of dimethylaluminum isopropoxide: a process-structure investigation

The development of a new process to obtain amorphous alumina thin films is presented. We show for the first time the direct liquid injection chemical vapor deposition (DLI CVD) of alumina thin films using dimethylaluminum isopropoxide (DMAI) precursor in two oxidizing atmospheres. At high process temperature (500-700 °C), the film growth takes place in the presence of O2 whereas at low temperature (150-300 °C) H2O vapor is used. The materials characteristics, such as the surface morphology and roughness (SEM and AFM), crystal structure (XRD), composition (EPMA) and chemistry (XPS) are discussed in detail. Very smooth films, with typical roughness values lower than 2.0 nm are obtained. The thin films are all composed of an amorphous material with varying composition. Supported by both EPMA and XPS results, film composition evolves from a partial oxyhydroxide to a stoichiometric oxide at low deposition temperature (150-300 °C) in the presence of H2O. At higher growth temperature (500-700 °C) in the presence of O2, the composition changes from that of a stoichiometric oxide to a mixture of an oxide with aluminum carbide.

Design and characterization of single photon avalanche diodes arrays

Abstract During the last years, in collaboration with ST-Microelectronics, we developed a new avalanche photo sensor, single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) see Ref.[S. Privitera, et al., Sensors 8 (2008) 4636 [1] ;S. Tudisco et al., IEEE Sensors Journal 8 (2008) 1324 [2] ]. Such sensor is able to detect and count, with excellent performance, single photons. Today, design and monolithic integration of many elements represents the most challenging goal in this field. In the present contribution we report on design and realization of a bi-dimensional array of SPADs. Such array is realized in standard planar technology and is the first prototype designed for imaging applications. The final aim is to identify the position and the arrival time of the impinging photons. Lay-out, readout strategy, characterization test are discussed.
Value co-creation and performance within Brazilian innovation environments

Purpose This study aims to analyse value co-creation in innovative firms within innovation environments (IEs) in the south region of Brazil from a processual and dynamic perspective, including its antecedents, initiatives and its outcomes in the multiple facets of the firms’ performance. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative and quantitative multi-method study was carried out with the management and support teams of these IEs, as well as with a sample of 91 companies installed. Findings The results helped clarify the value co-creation process in IEs of an emerging economy, suggesting under which conditions and how value co-creation practices are performed and its significant role in specific performance dimensions of companies. Research limitations/implications The study contributes to companies and IEs within emerging economies to prioritize practices related to the co-creation of value to enhance their results. Originality/value In emerging countries, IEs struggle to apply their scarce resources to the development of hosted firms. Having value co-creation as a concept that presupposes the involvement of the beneficiary and other actors to improve the companies’ value proposition, its practice may constitute a valuable ally in this effort. However, the dynamics of value co-creation in such environments, its antecedents and specific outcomes are still unclear.

Proeipaha: coordination, support and promotion activities in favour of eipaha

The goal of PROEIPAHA CSA is to help addressing the challenges identified by the stakeholders and the expert’s group report, by providing a wide range of high quality support services for the EIPAHA, from secretariat services, R&I facilitation, policy guidance, awareness and stakeholder’s engagement support, fostering open and sustainable collaboration. 

In order to pursue this goal, the project adopts a two-tier approach: internally, to reinforce the activity, output and impact of the EIP AHA, and externally, to increase its influence as a “policy catalyser” in the wider European economy. In other words, the project aims at improving the internal collaboration of the EIPAHA, and to widen its external outreach and influence.

The project is not designed as a coordination of EIPAHA, but as a set of support actions to the existing structures of governance, such as coordinators and thematic networks, in order to provide the tools and methodologies to help them deliver the expected results.

The consortium is composed by a balanced set of organization to provide high quality support services to the existing and future Action Plans, identifying synergies across AGs, and providing expert knowledge on Research and Innovation on active and healthy ageing (in wide range of domains impacting the issue), policy and legislation, monitoring, standardization, innovative procurement, knowledge sharing tools and governance methods, plus dissemination and awareness activities.

Sustainable Integrated Management of International River Corridors in SEE Countries 

Rivers in SEE region are often threatened by unsustainable use, increasing human pressure, and problems of increased floods and droughts driven by climate change. Inhabitation of floodplain areas, hydropower utilization, navigation, gravel and sand extraction, unsustainable tourism etc. lead to changes in morphology, increased pollution, degradation of aquatic habitats, as well as land use conflicts. The most pressures in a river basin occur along river corridors, challenging the sustainable water and riparian land use. The common EU legislation, in particular the Water Framework Directive, the Flood Directive, the Habitat Directive, the Birds Directive and the Renewable Resources Directive, gives a framework to develop processes and practices for sustainable river management. However, such sectoral objectives are often antagonistic and provide a challenge for river managing authorities when it comes to the implementation phase. The main objective of the SEE RIVER project is to empower the multi-sectoral stakeholders sharing the territory of an international river corridor to gain knowledge on planning and implementing processes for integration of existing sectoral policies, plans and programmes in order to reach consensus on integrative management of international river corridors, taking into account both the development and the conservation interests. This will be achieved by developing the SEE RIVER Toolkit - a joint approach for establishing common frameworks for integrative management of international river corridors in SEE. Such framework will be established for the Drava River and initiated on 5 other SEE rivers: Bodrog, Prut, Soča, Neretva and Vjosa rivers. The River Frameworks will use a cross-sectoral participatory approach to reach consensus among international stakeholders on the joint vision, goals and measures for sustainable management of river corridors. The project added value is that it does not aim at preparing new sectoral management plans, nor invent new costly managing structures to improve the management of river corridors. It rather provides a framework for utilising the existing management structures and sectoral policies, plans and programmes. The project aim is to simplify and rationalise the procedures for reaching synergetic solutions between development and conservation interests of stakeholders along international river corridors. Through application of the Toolkit and the Frameworks on 6 SEE Rivers the project will improve the transboundary and multi-sectoral cooperation of existing bodies responsible for the management of river corridors in 14 SEE countries. This will increase the capacities and skills for consensus building among policy making and implementing bodies from different sectors in SEE. This way the project will improve policy making processes which we believe is the only way to long term improvement of the quality of life along the river corridors and in the wider SEE region.
The Effect of Perinatal Taurine on Adult Renal Function Does Not Appear to Be Mediated by Taurine’s Inhibition of the Renin-Angiotensin System

This study tests the hypothesis that perinatal taurine supplementation alters adult renal function by inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed normal rat chow and given water alone (Control) or water containing an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (captopril, 400 mg/ml) from conception until delivery (FD) or from delivery until weaning (LD). After weaning, the rats received normal rat chow and tap water. At 7–8 weeks of age, renal function at rest and after an acute saline load was studied in conscious, restrained male rats. Body weight, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, effective renal blood flow, and renal vascular resistance were not significantly different among the three groups. Compared to Control, glomerular filtration rate, but not filtration fraction, significantly increased after a saline load in both FD and LD groups. Water excretion significantly increased only in FD compared to Control, while fractional water excretion was significantly increased after a saline load in both FD and LD groups. Sodium excretion significantly increased after a saline load only in FD, while both captopril-treated groups significantly decreased fractional sodium excretion. Potassium excretion significantly increased in both FD and LD groups, while fractional potassium excretion significantly increased at rest in FD and decreased in LD groups after a saline load. These effects of perinatal RAS inhibition on adult renal function contrast sharply, and are opposite in many cases to, the effects of perinatal taurine supplementation. Thus, these data suggest that perinatal taurine supplementation does not alter adult renal function through its ability to inhibit the perinatal RAS.
