Authors: de Klerk Danie , Krull Greig , Maleswena Tshepiso
Published: June 2021

In response to the spread of the Covid‑19 pandemic, the President of South Africa declared a national lockdown that commenced on 27 March 2020. This posed numerous challenges to the higher education sector, one of which was the preparation of students forced to stay at home to be able to study remotely under unique and often unfavourable circumstances. This article outlines and reflects on the conceptualisation, development, and implementation of an online orientation programme aimed at preparing students to rapidly move to emergency remote learning as a result of a nationwide lockdown. Teaching and Learning Centre staff in the Faculty of Commerce, Law and Management at a South African university rapidly created a short online orientation programme in the institutional Learning Management System, using Salmon’s five-stage model as a conceptual framework. The objective was to enable students to acquire the skills and knowledge required for continuing with the university academic programme from 20 April 2020 via emergency remote learning. The orientation programme covered the priority areas of how to get started in emergency remote learning, broad study skills, how to use the required technologies for learning, and managing personal well‑being during social isolation and emergency remote learning. In this article, the conceptualisation and development of the orientation programme is analysed, before reflecting on its implementation, challenges, mitigating measures, and lessons learned. Feedback from students indicates that the majority of students felt more prepared for continuing the academic programme, although they still reported feeling anxious about the many uncertainties. The intervention emerges as a useful strategy for helping students transition during a crisis and contributes to the understanding of how to prepare students for rapid transition to Emergency Remote Learning.
Online Work Readiness Programme: Ready, Set, Go!
Authors: Janeke Belinda
Published: June 2021

There has always been pressure on higher education institutions to enhance the employability of graduates and to instil knowledge, skills, and attributes that will be beneficial to future employers. The impact of Covid‑19 on a global, national, and local level is placing even more pressure on the topic of employability. Graduates are uncertain about job availability and there is a need for career guidance. After a national and local shutdown of university campuses in 2015 and 2016 due to #FeesMustFall, Career Services staff at the University of the Free State designed and created online work readiness programmes in order for students to continue with work preparations, no matter what the circumstances. In 2018, the first topics on CV‑writing and job interview skills were rolled out online and made available to all registered students; each semester, two additional topics were added. By the time Covid‑19 led to a national lockdown in South Africa in March 2020, the transition to online work readiness programmes was fairly easy. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of the online work readiness programmes offered on the Blackboard platform from April to June 2020 during the Covid‑19 pandemic and national lockdown. This article will provide an analysis of a questionnaire conducted with willing participants who have engaged and worked through the online work readiness programmes from April to June 2020, to investigate the impact on graduates’ readiness for the world of work. Through the survey, students shared their learning experiences and the influence it has had on their career planning. It is believed that the findings of this research study will create a deeper understanding of how career services, as a particular functional area in student affairs, can reposition itself during uncertain times to remain responsive to the needs of students.

Published: June 2021

The global pandemic caused by Covid‑19 has impacted every facet of our lives and challenged service delivery to students within Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The Centre for Student Counselling and Development (CSCD) at Stellenbosch University (SU), South Africa, is situated within the Division of Student Affairs (DSAf) and the centre’s reflective practitioners had to respond to the challenge of altering services to ensure continuous support to the SU community. The CSCD aims to provide the SU community with psychological, developmental and support services, with the focus on critical engagement, advocacy, personal growth, and optimising graduate potential. The CSCD has been functioning virtually since mid-March 2020. Each of the Centre’s five units had to respond to both the challenges and opportunities to adhere to social distancing and to accommodate students who did not have access to online devices. All support sessions – whether it be academic, social justice, career, social work, psychotherapy, crisis management, with individuals or with groups – had to be done virtually or via telephone. This depended on a student’s choice and practical reality in terms of space, privacy, and connectivity. This article aims to firstly share the risks and opportunities of rapidly shifting to an online supportive environment, as well as how each unit within the centre had to adjust its functioning to ensure minimum impact on student relationships and interactions. It secondly aims to portray the implications the rapid shift had on the centre’s practitioners and the lessons learned during the process. Sharing these lessons might empower other HEIs in Africa too. Lastly, considering the imperative shift to online functioning caused by the Covid‑19 pandemic, this article concludes with a discussion on the implications for the future functioning of the CSCD.
Leveraging Ed-tech in the Co-curricular Space: Reflections on Design and Development Aspects of the Class Representative Induction Programme at the University of Cape Town
Authors: Immenga Christine
Published: June 2021

Every year, class representatives are elected at the University of Cape Town to represent students on academic matters in relation to a specific academic course. A vital element of this representative role is to advocate for an enabling learning environment that promotes learning excellence. In preparing class representatives for their leadership roles, the Department of Student Affairs, in partnership with the Students’ Representative Council (SRC) and the Faculty Councils, host and facilitate a class representative induction programme. The induction typically utilised face-to-face synchronous teaching methods. However, since the advent of Covid-19, adaptions to the induction programme had to be made in order to reflect the new normal imposed by the pandemic. Against this backdrop, this article addresses various design-related choices encountered from an online education technology perspective. Key areas of reflection include working with the SRC Undergraduate Academic Co-ordinator and Faculty Councils as a design team in transitioning a, hitherto, synchronous programme catering for approximately 420 class representatives, from a face-to-face mode of delivery to an online mode of delivery. Particular attention is paid to the social constructivist design elements of the programme development process and how these elements were managed with regards to the enablements and constraints encountered in the virtual space by exploring the technological affordances of various ed-tech options available to student affairs practitioners. This article contributes to the practitioner literature by demonstrating how ed-tech can be leveraged to aid in the preservation of existing practices as blended learning approaches continue to shape and augment the future of co-curricular programme delivery in higher education.
From Didactics to Datafication: A Critical Reflection on Virtual Learning Environments and the Production of Space
Authors: Bernard Taryn
Published: June 2021

When writing about transformation in higher education (HE) in South Africa, it is quite popular to mention the fall of apartheid, and perhaps also 1994, as a starting point for significant change. I, myself, have made this mistake (see Bernard, 2015). However, the recent #FeesMustFall protests highlighted that many approaches to transformation have been superficial at best, and extremely problematic at worst (Luckett & Naicker, 2019; Luckett, 2019). This is because they have done little to acknowledge the legacies that colonial modes of thinking have had, and continue to have, on the everyday lived experiences of students in spaces that still feel alienating to them. In April 2020, when the doors of South African universities closed to all, and during a swift and mass migration away from university campuses to Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs), I was presented with the opportunity to critically reflect on the impact that increased use of VLEs can have on the transformation agenda in the HE sector. My approach takes up Tumubweinee and Luescher’s (2019, p. 2) argument that many initiatives aimed at transformation in HE have failed, because they do not pay sufficient attention to the where of transformation. Thus, like Tumubweinee and Luescher, I locate my reflection on VLEs in the postmodern, sociopolitical understandings of ‘space’ evident in the work of Lefebvre (1991), but more specifically his notions of conceived and abstract space. In doing so, issues of identity and coloniality are brought to the fore. My approach is critical in that it “implies possibilities, and possibilities as yet unfulfilled” (Lefebvre, 2002, pp.18‑19).

Land is an important and inherent element in human life because most of life depends on the soil. The need for land registration is very important in order to secure land rights owned by someone as well as to realize the orderly administration of land in Indonesia. Efforts to accelerate the implementation of land certification have been carried out since the issuance of the LoGA in 1960 through various programs, but until 2016 only 40.07% registered land. These conditions encourage the government to create a Systematic Complete Land Registration (PTSL) policy to accelerate land registration in Indonesia, especially in Semarang Regency. The research method used is a mixture (mixed methods) to answer the research objectives, namely knowing the effectiveness of policy implementation. The theory of policy implementation used in this study tries to explore the driving and inhibiting factors of PTSL policy implementation in Semarang Regency. The results showed that the implementation of the PTSL policy in Semarang District was quite effective but there were still obstacles, namely the socio-economic conditions of the community, limited implementation of human resources, and no pre-certification budget allocation. Recommendations as a step for the government to do are continuing counseling to increase public awareness about the importance of land certificates, realignment and equitable implementation of the workload of implementers, and the allocation of pre-certification budget for weak economy communities.

Published: June 2021

Nowadays there are lots of methods using three-dimensional or quasi three-dimensional CFD analysis. Unfortunately, this approach is still very demanding, so that quick preliminary design algorithms have still its importance, even though simplified analytical model of radial compressor gives less accurate results. Obtained results can be used in later stages of the radial compressor (RC) design, such as definition of spatial impeller geometry and CFD computation. The article presents the influence of input parameters in the radial compressor design algorithm on the efficiency. The assembled mathematical model of RC is derived from the basic laws of continuum mechanics and can be used for a quick assessment of the preliminary design concept of the RC. A sensitivity analysis is performed on input parameters to select parameters that have the dominant effect on the monitored performance indicators. On the basis of the sensitivity analysis, a multicriteria optimization process was assembled to increase the performance parameters.

Authors: Gorbunov Aleksandr , Nikiforov-Nikishin Dmitry , Gorbunov Oleg
Published: June 2021

The article presents the research results of biological parameters of Daphnia magna development at the critical stages of ontogenesis influenced by the aqueous solutions of ecotoxicants: nitrobenzene and trichlorobenzene. The periods of reproduction and development in Daphnia magna are stated to be decisive, among other parameters (physiological, biochemical). In fact, the entire period of embryogenesis in Daphnia is quite vulnerable, compared to the further stages of development. Under the action of solutions of ecotoxicants taken for the research Daphnias have

a decreased fertility and a delayed oogenesis. The next stage of sensitivity is the number of cast carapaces. The least sensitive parameter is the survival rate of adults. Increasing the remote toxic effect in three generations of Daphnias was not detected in the course of research. The Daphnia magna test object showed high sensitivity to nitrobenzene and trichlorobenzene acting as water environment pollutants in all the experiments. For the main ontogenetic parameters in the assessment of water quality it is preferable to take fecundity and violation of development processes at the pre-natal stages of Daphnia magna. According to the survival parameter, the maximum permissible concentration of the studied benzene compounds was 0.01 mg/l, which was determined by the most sensitive parameters and critical stages of ontogenesis
RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF RESTRUCTURING IN COMPOSITION OF MACROZOOBENTHOS UNDER CASPIAN SEA TRANSGRESSION
Authors: Mikhajlova Anna Viktorovna
Published: June 2021

The article highlights the processes of lowering and raising the Caspian Sea level and its influence on the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the aquatic bioresources, including zoobenthos. The development of macrozoobenthos in the Caspian Sea including the Northern Caspian is associated with various processes: chemical, physical and biological. The presence of macrozoobenthos determines the fish productivity in the sea, it is an integral part of the ecosystem of the northern part of the Caspian Sea. In this regard, the assessment of the composition and quantitative characteristics of bottom communities becomes important. One of the urgent tasks of modern hydrobiology is detecting the basic regularities in the biotic processes that affect the qualitative and quantitative changes in the aquatic organisms. This research is of a retrospective nature. On the basis of a long-term analysis of the dynamics of the species structure of bottom zoocenoses there have been revealed the changes in the macrozoobenthos of the western part of the Northern Caspian in the first and second periods of the sea level rise (1978–1988 and 1989–1995). Decreasing water salinity, increasing desalinated zones and areas with oxygen deficiency in the bottom horizon (in the extremely high-water years of 1990 and 1991) contributed to the significant changes in the quantitative and qualitative composition of the bottom fauna. From the first stage to the second there was recorded a decrease in the number and biomass of crustaceans and molluscs. The species Stenogammarus macrurus (G. O. Sars) and Stenogammarus similis (G. O. Sars), which are tolerant to the significant salinity fluctuations, as well as abra, which is resistant to oxygen deficiency were most abundant in the water complex with light salinity. Also, there has been considered the water content of the rivers of the Caspian basin and the type of soil as factors influencing changes in the concentration of macrozoobenthos.

Authors: Slastina Yuliya
Published: June 2021

The paper presents the results of a study of phytoplankton in Lake Munozero during the vegetation period in 2018. The seasonal dynamics of the biomass and abundance of algae in the southern and northwestern reaches experiencing different anthropogenic pressures has been considered. The reservoir stands out among other water bodies of the Republic of Karelia for its chemical and morphometric characteristics. It is characterized by high mineralization (up to 100 mg/l), isolation of the reaches, low color and content of nutrients and organic compounds. There have been identified 147 taxa of the algoflora with a rank lower than the genus, belonging to 9 divisions. The structure of algocenoses in terms of species richness and quantitative development is determined by representatives of centric diatoms, cyanobacter, dinophytes, and chlorococcal greens, which is important for the formation of the fish food base. Average size of phytoplankton during 2018 in the northwestern reach reached 492 thousand cells/l, the average biomass was 0.468 g/m3. The average size of phytoplankton in the southern reach reached 589 thousand kg/l, the average biomass was 0.459 g/m3. The water quality in the northwestern and southern reaches by the value of the saprobic index corresponds to the III class of waters, but the biomass values characterize both parts of the reservoir as oligotrophic. Shannon's index, quantitative and structural characteristics of phytoplankton differ in the northwestern and southern reaches, seasonal dynamics is not typical for phytoplankton of the oligotrophic Karelian lake. According to the data on abundance and biomass of phytoplankton of Lake Munozero the value of commercial fish catch was calculated.
COVID-19 economic response measures and entrepreneurial activities: a study of micro-enterprises in Nigeria
Authors: Franca Obi Chinazor
Published: June 2021

Nigeria witnessed an economic downturn in 2009 due to the global financial crisis and in 2016 as a result of the global oil price crash. The Nigerian economy was resuscitating from the economic recession before the emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic and its curtail measures. Most private and government firms laid-off their workers, while others had their staff salaries. The sustaining business operations in this era may be extremely difficult due to lack of funds for self-employment, start-up ventures, innovations or new market opportunities. With the help of the Central Bank the government rowed out some monetary and fiscal measures referred to in the study as Economic Responses Measures (ERM). The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between COVID-19 ERM and the Entrepreneurial Activity (EA) of micro business. It has been stated that COVID-19 ERM provide innovations, self-employment, start-up and new market creation activities of micro-enterprises in Nigeria. An exploratory survey was done on 294 randomly selected samples from micro-enterprises (retail, ICT, manufacturing and artisans) across the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria. The result proves empirically that COVID-19 ERM does not have a significantly positive relationship with the EA of micro-businesses in Nigeria. The implication of this finding therefore suggests that many micro-businesses may not have accessed these ERM or do not embark in EA. There is highlighted the importance of government support to micro-businesses and also provided new dimensions for the measures of micro-business EA.

Acceptable-and-attractive Approximate Solution of a Continuous Non-Cooperative Game on a Product of Sinusoidal Strategy Functional Spaces
Authors: Romanuke Vadim
Published: June 2021

A problem of solving a continuous noncooperative game is considered, where the player’s pure strategies are sinusoidal functions of time. In order to reduce issues of practical computability, certainty, and realizability, a method of solving the game approximately is presented. The method is based on mapping the product of the functional spaces into a hyperparallelepiped of the players’ phase lags. The hyperparallelepiped is then substituted with a hypercubic grid due to a uniform sampling. Thus, the initial game is mapped into a finite one, in which the players’ payoff matrices are hypercubic. The approximation is an iterative procedure. The number of intervals along the player’s phase lag is gradually increased, and the respective finite games are solved until an acceptable solution of the finite game becomes sufficiently close to the same-type solutions at the preceding iterations. The sufficient closeness implies that the player’s strategies at the succeeding iterations should be not farther from each other than at the preceding iterations. In a more feasible form, it implies that the respective distance polylines are required to be decreasing on average once they are smoothed with respective polynomials of degree 2, where the parabolas must be having positive coefficients at the squared variable.

Published: June 2021

Los juegos son herramientas útiles para el aprendizaje, mantienen a los estudiantes motivados mientras cumplen con el objetivo de ayudar a desarrollar habilidades cognitivas. En matemáticas a nivel superior, se observa que existe resistencia de algunos docentes en utilizar estrategias de aprendizaje basado en juegos (GBL, por sus siglas en inglés) para enseñar contenidos abstractos que es posible visualizar en entornos digitales, lo que favorece su uso en tiempos de pandemia. El profesorado debe adaptarse a las nuevas generaciones, que aprenden y disfrutan trabajando sobre situaciones cotidianas, y una forma de hacerlo es utilizando el juego como recurso para enseñar. En esta investigación, se propone el uso de un juego clásico conocido por Taken o Juego del 15 como una herramienta de motivación para la enseñanza de algunas propiedades importantes del grupo simétrico S_15, se establece una relación biunívoca entre el juego y las permutaciones con el fin de elaborar explicaciones a fenómenos algebraicos que ocurren al jugar y se construye un instrumento que evalúa los fundamentos conceptuales que se identifican en el juego, para garantizar que la actividad ayuda al desarrollo de las competencias en los alumnos. En consecuencia, se evidencia que el Juego del 15 constituye una estrategia didáctica innovadora, que favorece la enseñanza de permutaciones a estudiantes del nivel superior para temas de álgebra moderna.

Authors:   Grodno State Medical University, Grodno, Belarus, Mahiliavets E. V. , Harelik P. V. ,   Grodno State Medical University, Grodno, Belarus
Published: June 2021

Background. Making treatment / prevention decisions in bleeding from gastroesophageal varices in patients with subhepatic portal hypertension remains challenging and thus requires further research. Objective. To perform a preliminary analysis of the outcomes of selective devascularization of the gastric fundus in patients with chronic pancreatitis and subhepatic portal hypertension. Material and methods. Selective devascularization of the gastric fundus was performed in five patients (3 men and 2 women) aged 23 to 54 with chronic recurrent pancreatitis and subhepatic portal hypertension. In 2 patients, Roux-en-Y cystojejunostomy for pancreatic pseudocyst was performed as the main treatment, and in 3 patients - Frey's surgery. Selective devascularization of the gastric fundus was adjuvant to a draining surgery or a resection-draining one. Results. All patients underwent surgery successfully. The duration of the operation (Me [min; max]) was 205 [190; 255] min. The time spent in the Department of anesthesiology, resuscitation and intensive care comprised 1 [1; 2] days. Postoperative follow-up of these patients over the period of 17 - 58 months detected no recurrence of bleeding from gastric varices. Endoscopy performed a year after revealed a decrease in the size of esophageal varices in all patients. Conclusions. The proposed technique of selective devascularization of the gastric fundus is substantiated by numerous studies of the variant anatomy of venous outflow from the spleen in extrahepatic portal hypertension. This technique is regarded as adjuvant to a draining surgery or a resection-draining one in patients with chronic pancreatitis and subhepatic portal hypertension performed to prevent bleeding from gastric fundus varices. There should be noted the reproducibility of this surgical intervention, its effectiveness and safety. Further research on the efficiency of the technique using randomized controlled trials is required.

Background. Hemobilia is the excretion of blood alongside with bile through intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts. Despite the use of new methods of diagnosis and treatment, the mortality rate from hemobilia remains high (20-40%). Objective. To demonstrate a clinical case and some methods of diagnosis and treatment of a patient with hemobilia. Material and methods. The article presents our own clinical observation of a patient with a penetrating knife wound of the abdominal cavity with liver injury complicated by hemobilia. Two-stage treatment was performed including upper midline laparotomy, cholecystectomy, and biliary tract sanitation with external drainage of the common bile duct according to Pikovsky in combination with angioembolization of the damaged artery of the 4th liver segment. Results. The analysis of the clinical case shows X-ray endovascular methods to be one of the promising ways of increasing surgical management efficiency of traumatic hemobilia. Conclusions. This observation shows the possibility of developing hemobilia without signs of intra-abdominal bleeding in penetrating abdominal wounds with liver injury. The use of X-ray endovascular diagnostic methods can improve treatment outcomes of patients with hemobilia of traumatic origin.
O LUGAR DO CORPO FEMININO EM NARRATIVAS E CANÇÕES CONTEMPORÂNEAS BRASILEIRAS
Authors: De Oliveira Amanda Maria Garcia Holgado
Published: June 2021

Pensar no corpo enquanto instância de enunciado e manifestação de privilégios, resistência, identificações e enfrentamento é o propósito deste artigo. O corpo é visto e confrontado por representar características aceitas ou negadas por um senso comum, o que gera estigmas e preconceitos. Este artigo traz compositoras e autoras da música e literatura brasileiras contemporâneas que apontam o confronto do corpo através das determinações sociais impostas a ele. Serão analisadas na obra musical de Karina Buhr, canções do álbum Selvática, de Karol Conka, canções do álbum Batuk Freak. Na literatura, o romance Coisas que os homens não entendem de Elvira Vigna e o conto “Isaltina Campo Belo” de Conceição Evaristo. Os discursos são analisados considerando um potencial afirmativo das obras sobre as práticas feministas enquanto descolonizadoras, dialogando com as teorias acerca do corpo de Judith Butler, Guacira Lopes Louro e Lélia Gonzales.

As atividades foram realizadas por meio de oficinas com os alunos dos 1º, 2º e 3º anos do Ensino Médio, os quais promoveram a produção e a criação do Jornal do Conhecimento do Centro Estadual de Tempo Integral (CETI) Marcos Parente. Objetivamos, pois, a) relatar a nossa experiência durante o período de atuação e desenvolvimento do jornal escolar; b) abordar o trabalho com gêneros textuais na escola; e c) refletir sobre as contribuições dessas atividades para o processo de ensino-aprendizagem dos alunos. Para a materialização desta proposta, foi feita, inicialmente, uma pesquisa bibliográfica, fundamentada nos embasamentos teóricos de Bakhtin (2003), Marcuschi (2005), Traquina (2005), Lage (2001, 2005), entre outros. Em seguida, foram realizadas as oficinas acerca dos gêneros jornalísticos. Evidenciamos que a prática de atividades voltadas para tais gêneros motivou o desenvolvimento da leitura e da escrita dos alunos, de modo que essas ações funcionaram como instrumento de interação dos discentes em sua vivência escolar.

grande enchente
Authors: Kopenawa Yanomami Davi
Published: June 2021

Davi Kopenawa nos brinda com duas narrativas que relatam a diversidade e a vitalidade das línguas faladas entre os yanomami. Na primeira, conta-nos sobre a grande enchente que levou Ã  diferenciação entre as línguas, ocorrida após um evento extremo causado por uma desordem no plano humano e que abalou tanto o plano divino-espiritual como a terra-floresta. Os povos que dali surgiram foram transformados em espumas de distintas cores e qualidades, e carreados pela correnteza do Rio Parima. Com fina ironia, Kopenawa recorre, no texto seguinte, ao paladar adocicado da cana de açúcar para meditar sobre a atratividade da língua portuguesa, que lhes tem sido imposta através dos tempos.
Kaji’ Pach’un Tzij

Published: June 2021

Escribir permite fortalecer el idioma. En los poemas se registra la escritura de acontecimientos, conocimientos y fenómenos naturales que son parte de la filosofía del pueblo Maya Kaqchikel. También se registran las vivencias que reflejan la forma de ver el mundo de la comunidad. El contenido de los escritos también sirve de reflexión, no solo para resguardar la lengua sino para orientar la actitud del ser humano hacia el buen vivir, en comunidad, como lo han venido haciendo los abuelos, grandes maestros y sabios, quienes han heredado de nuestros ancestros, todas aquellas prácticas culturales que reguardan ciencia, conocimientos y sabiduría de todo un pueblo.
Filosofía rumiante
Authors: Di Berardino María Aurelia
Published: June 2021

El propósito de este artículo es proponer una reflexión sobre la pandemia actual desde una perspectiva que reconoce ciertas filiaciones filosóficas. En particular, seguiré alguna línea de análisis sugerida por el pensamiento cosmopolítico de Isabelle Stengers así como algunas provocaciones del último trabajo de Donna Haraway. Estas ideas permitirán establecer, a su vez, un hilo conductor que hace las veces de clausura provisoria de un diagnóstico científico y filosófico convergente: la pandemia representa la irrupción de un tiempo que demanda una reflexión sui generis. Nada se cancela en este trabajo porque pretendo, como las autoras,seguir con el problema.
Filosofia para além da presença em Heidegger, Levinas e Derrida
Authors: Amorim Castelo Branco Rodrigo
Published: June 2021

Este texto se empenha em discutir de que modo as perspectivas filosóficas de Heidegger, Lévinas e Derrida se aproximam, mas, também, em que pontos se chocam. Embora os dois últimos sejam críticos do primeiro, há uma confluência significativa entre os três autores: a trinca batalha para superar os caminhos seguidos pela tradição pensante do Ocidente. Cada um, em seu prisma filosófico, busca tornar “visível” a vontade de presença na qual a metafísica esteve e está metida. A intenção é demonstrar o lugar comum no qual as ontologias tradicionais permaneceram durante milênios: na zona da representação. O Ocidente esquece-se do ser (Heidegger), encerra o Outro em conceitos egóicos (Lévinas) e deixa de considerar a estrutura diferencial de rastros, o arque-traço da existência (différance) (Derrida).

Authors: Alves Vânia Maria Siqueira
Published: June 2021

Surgidos no século XIX, como recurso de ensino, os museus escolares sofreram transformações em suas funções ao longo do tempo e do espaço. Presente nas legislações educacionais brasileiras do final do século XIX e primeira metade do século XX, os museus escolares foram mobilizados nas proposições de inovação e renovação da escola primária. “Museus escolares no Brasil (1930 -1970): revitalização e crise” trata da prescrição de criação e o florescimento dos museus escolares no contexto do movimento escolanovista, mais especificamente nos anos 1930 ”“ 1940. Diferentemente do contexto europeu onde vivenciaram um período de crise, no Brasil, os museus escolares apresentaram números significativos e estiveram presentes em orientações pedagógicas do período. Frente Ã  carência de pesquisas e dados, operações são necessárias para transformar os fatos em dados. Além da pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, a pesquisa estatística foi crucial no levantamento de informações sobre a presença dessas instituições museológicas nesse período.

Authors: Dos Santos Vinicius Rodrigues , Marandino Martha
Published: June 2021

A existência de museus nos espaços escolares está relacionada tanto a exposição das pesquisas em ciência naturais como ao ensino com base nos objetos usados na “lição das coisas”. Dentre esses objetos, encontramos os dioramas, presentes em museus de história natural desde o século XIX, sendo também encontrados nos museus escolares. Assim, neste artigo, nos apoiamos na Teoria Antropológica do Didático para estudar o potencial educativo de um dos dioramas do Museu de História Natural do Colégio Dante Alighieri (MHN-CDA). Nos resultados discutimos as implicações e apontamos o potencial e o limites dos dioramas para os processos de ensino e aprendizagem.
