Published: December 2019

Background: Upper GI endoscopy is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure widely used across the world. Some patients, however, experience a great deal of discomfort during the procedure, which is mainly due to activation of the gag reflex. Therefore, topical pharyngeal or general anesthesia is applied to reduce the gag reflex during endoscopy. This study aimed to compare the effect of IV lidocaine versus topical lidocaine spray in reducing the gag reflex in patients sedated with propofol.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted in Imam Khomeini Hospital in 2017. One group of patients received propofol at a dose of 0.5-1 mg/kg plus lidocaine spray and the other group received propofol at the same dose plus IV lidocaine at a dose of 1 mg/kg (maximum 100 mg). Patients in both groups also received 50 µg fentanyl. The variables of gag reflex (using the VAS), patient and physician satisfaction, length of endoscopy, vital signs, and adverse effects were compared between the two groups.
Results: Ninety-three patients were evaluated in this study, of whom 42 (45.2%) were men and the rest were women (n=51, 54.8%). ANOVA was used to evaluate the effect of type of anesthesia on the final level of gag reflex and the results showed lack of any significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Patient satisfaction was higher in the IV anesthesia group (P= 0.036) and the physician satisfaction was higher in the topical anesthesia group (P= 0.027). Among vital signs, only SBP showed a modest difference between the two groups and was significantly higher in the topical anesthesia group (P=0.04). There was no significant difference in the rate of adverse effects between the two groups (P> 0.05).
Conclusion: Topical anesthesia using lidocaine spray is as effective and safe as IV lidocaine in decreasing the gag reflex in upper GI endoscopy in patients sedated with propofol.

ubglottic stenosis (SS) is the leading cause of stridor in pediatric age group. It involves narrowing of subglottic lumen due to incomplete recanalization during embryogenesis (congenital) or after trauma (post intubation). Stridor is the important symptom of SS and usually present in both phases of respiration. Airway management becomes a challenging task to the anesthesiologist in SS due to difficulty in maneuvering endotracheal tube (ETT) through the noncompliant stricture. Location and extent of stricture also pose difficulty in securing front of neck access [1].
 After taking consent of the child’s parent for possible publication in a medical journal, we present a case of subglottic stenosis posted for emergency tracheostomy and ventilated with a novel airway device prepared by simple equipments present in operation theatre.
Case Report
A one-year-old baby of 11 kg presented to the emergency with chief complaint of noisy breathing developed after upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), fever and cough since 2 days. Child’s stridor started since birth that was progressive in severity and frequency, aggravated by recurrent URTI.
At the time of admission, child was in severe respiratory distress with intercostals and suprasternal retraction. Nasal flaring was present with weak cry. Bilateral air entry was decreased with harsh bronchial sounds on auscultation. Hemodynamically child was unstable with heart rate 200 per minute, blood pressure 60/36 mmHg, respiratory rate 44 per minute, axillary temperature 38.5 degree Celsius and SpO2 62% at room air and 88% with Oxygen given by facemask and reservoir at 10 liters per minute. ABG showed pH 7.32, PO2 52 mm Hg, PCO2 68 mm Hg, HCO3 20.2 meq/l and Hb 10.6 mg/dl. Emergency CECT was done which showed the subglottic stenosis of 2.6 mm in length and 2.0 mm of patent airway in diameter at the narrowest point [Figure 1].
Securing the airway was planned with endotracheal intubation followed by surgical tracheostomy and definite correction. Tracheostomy could be done under sedation in a spontaneously breathing child with the aid of facemask or supraglottic airway device. However, an unsuccessful attempt in tracheostomy could completely obstruct the airway and patient may suffer hypoxia.
ETT of 2.0 mm ID was not available that day so we decided to make a novel device in place of ETT. We developed a novel airway device by using 6F suction catheter (SC), 18 G intravenous needle catheter, 3.5 mm ID Endotracheal tube connector and guide wire of 10 F Foleys catheter. We cut the connecting end of SC to resize it equivalent to the length of 2.5mm ID ETT and marking the SC with marker at 6 to 10 cm, 1 cm apart. Foleys guide wire was inserted in the SC and whole

Published: December 2019

Video laryngoscopy has opened its way into airway management and continues to play a larger role in managing patients with difficult airway. Anesthesiologists use video laryngoscopy more often every day and therefore accept the risks of more challenging and difficult airway situations with more confidence.
In the mentioned case below, a 45-year-old female with a large thyroid mass is presented to an academic based hospital, for elective thyroidectomy. The patient was intubated using a video laryngoscopy technique and the airway was secured.
Video laryngoscopy helps secure difficult airways and could be chosen as first line option in such situations.

Authors: Sánchez-Rosas Javier , Sebastián Correa Pablo , Daniel Díaz Iván
Published: December 2019

Actualmente, los docentes se enfrentan al desafío de lograr que los estudiantes perciban como útiles los contenidos que enseñan en clase. Desde la teoría expectativa-valor de la motivación, la utilidad percibida es considerada flexible a las intervenciones externas. Aunque un cuerpo reciente y creciente de investigaciones han evaluado la efectividad de tales intervenciones, no se conocen publicaciones que hayan revisado la cantidad, características, conceptos, correlatos y funcionamiento de las intervenciones investigadas. Para tal fin, en este trabajo se buscó describir las intervenciones que promueven la utilidad percibida por los estudiantes. Se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica no sistemática, construyéndose criterios de análisis ad hoc. Se identificaron doce intervenciones, todas basadas en el modelo teórico de expectativa-valor. El tipo, cantidad y duración de las actividades es diverso y las mismas consisten en pedir a los estudiantes que hagan conexiones de los temas aprendidos en clase con su vida cotidiana. Asimismo, la frecuencia de dichas conexiones es el mecanismo a través del cual las intervenciones poseen efectos sobre el aprendizaje. Esta revisión aporta a la práctica e investigación en educación una diversidad de recursos para producir cambios en la utilidad percibida y mejorar el interés y el rendimiento de los estudiantes.

A utilização de óleos essenciais tem sido usado como uma alternativa no controle de doenças e pragas pode ser uma alternativa viável. Na cultura da manga, a antracnose é considerada a principal doença por causar prejuízos na produtividade e qualidade dos frutos. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a utilização de óleo essencial de noni no controle preventivo e curativo da antracnose da mangueira. O fungo fitopatogênico foi obtido a partir do isolamento de lesões características de plantas de manga. O óleo essencial foi obtido a partir de frutos maduros de noni (Morinda citrifolia L.). Os bioensaios in vitro foram realizados testando-se diferentes concentrações do óleo essencial. Para o teste de fitotoxicidade foi utilizado cinco concentrações diferentes de óleo essencial de noni. O teste de controle preventivo foi instalado aplicando-se por meio de um borrifador manual. Também foi realizado o teste curativo. O óleo essencial de noni têm efeito inibitório no crescimento micelial da antracnose (C. gloeosporioides) in vitro em folhas de manga. Os sintomas de fitotoxicidade foram observados nas folhas de manga em doses de óleo de noni maior que 2,0%. A aplicação curativa do óleo de noni proporcionou controle parcial da doença. Na forma preventiva o uso de óleo de noni é mais eficiente que a curativa no controle da antracnose em plantas de manga. A aplicação do fungicida proporcionou eficiência de controle preventivo e curativo semelhante ao óleo de noni, demonstrando que o controle natural pode ser uma ótima opção de uso no manejo de doenças em plantas.

The process of processing and selling fresh vegetable and mushroom products is accompanied by a high risk of rapid bacteriological damage and, as a consequence, short shelf life. The search for methods of processing lightly damaged varieties of plant materials is an urgent problem of the food industry. Studies have been carried out to study the effect of relativistic electrons on a 10 MeV facility (Tekleor company) on the dynamics of inhibition of native microflora during storage of delicate types of plant materials. Fresh mushroom champignons and fresh spinach greens were chosen as objects of study. Product samples were Packed weighing 200 g in plastic bags brand RA / PE. Storage and transportation of samples was carried out at a temperature of 8–10 ° С. After processing the experimental data, a plateau zone was revealed during processing with a beam energy of 1 kGy with a further decrease in the number of microorganisms with an increase in dose to 2 kGy. Studies of changes in the dynamics of inhibition of the initial number of microorganisms in mushroom and green products showed that in the microflora of mushroom and green products, there are stable types of microorganisms that are characterized by the presence of a plateau zone. Processing spinach with a beam energy of 1 and 2 kGy allows extending the shelf life compared to control samples from 5 to 12 and 15 days. The treatment of champignon mushrooms with a beam energy of 2 kGy, despite the high initial level of seed contamination with native microflora, allowed us to maintain the upper limit of the norm (1 · 105 CFU / g) of microbiological seed for up to 5 days.

Published: December 2019

The extrusion process advantage of agricultural raw materials processing into food and feed over traditional technologies is the high specific productivity, energy efficiency and versatility of use. The presence of a large number of control factors and influence on the raw materials quality, such as operating parameters and structural elements, make extrusion a difficult reproducible process when scaling or moving from one installation to another. But this aspect is the reason for the maximum flexibility of extrusion systems and the possibility of their continuous improvement. One of the ways for the extrusion technology development is the improvement of equipment and design solutions in the field of energy saving. Investigations of the thermoplastic extrusion process of wheat grinding with the application of the recovery of steam heat generated by a special configuration of screw elements and its degassing with the feeding into the processed material were carried out in the work. The modernized extruder Werner & Phleiderer Continua 37, supplemented by a developed recuperative unit and a steam line, was used to achieve this goal. An assessment of changes in energy consumption during steam recovery was carried out. The physicochemical properties of the experimental and control samples of wheat grain extrudates obtained under various operating conditions were investigated and determined. It was found out that the steam recovery mode is a statistically significant reason for increasing the humidity of the extruded product from 3.8 to 5.0 bulk density - by 15% relative to the mode without recovery. A decrease in the explosion coefficient and the water-holding capacity of the extrudates during operation in the regenerative mode of extrusion was noticed. The presented method with additional thermal effects on the processed raw materials allows us to expand the technological capabilities of the process of thermoplastic extrusion in obtaining products of various functional and technological purposes.

In this paper, a composite material based on LDPE filled with 30 vol.% wood microcellulose (MC), in order to assess the possibility of its use as a biomass carrier treatment facilities.The material was obtained in industrial conditions by means of a twin-screw extruder with a leaf head, then samples of a composite biomass carrier in the form of discs with a diameter of 4 cm and a thickness of 1.5 mm were obtained from the sheet by means of a cutting press.Investigated the microstructure and morphological parameters of the composite, it was found that the porosity is about 58%, the surface roughness is 3.5 units of density about 450 kg/cubic m. the basic technological parameters of the melt of the composite by the method of capillary viscometry, the dependences of the shear stress and the melt viscosity of the test material in the velocity range processing, it was found that the composite refers to satisfactory recyclable thermoplastics. Bagley correction was performed. The thermomechanical stability of the material was investigated, the critical temperature of processing-200 °C. the operational properties of the material were Investigated: the tensile strength was 1.6 MPa, the elongation at break-12%, water absorption for 24 hours of soaking-31.2%. The dry biomass residue of activated sludge for 10 days of its immobilization on a composite biomass carrier amounted to 5.54%, which exceeds by 2.4 times the biomass growth on the traditionally used material-pure polyethylene. The material has a relative chemical resistance, does not lose its performance over a long period of operation. In particular, the loss of tensile strength after 5-fold freezing, soaking in 0.01 n solutions of sulfuric acid, acetic acid and sodium hydroxide (for 6 months), exposure to UV solar radiation (for 12 months), soaking in water (for 12 months) did not exceed 10-12%. Thus, the composite composition of LDPE: MC (70: 30 vol.% ) can be recommended for use in biological treatment plants as a highly efficient carrier material-biomass.
Study of the possibilities of technology of complex extraction of useful components from coastal-sea placers of Primorye with application of methods of pyro-hydrometallurgy
Authors: Molchanov V. P. , Yudakov A. A. , Medkov M. A.
Published: December 2019

Intensive exploitation of placer gold deposits in Primorye led to the depletion of their geological reserves, which was reflected in a sharp decrease in the production of precious metals. An alternative source of precious metals is the never before exploited placer deposits of the Primorsky shelf, which have concentrated a significant amount of gold and titanomagnetite. The importance of gold as the basis of the economic security of our country can hardly be overestimated. Titanomagnetites are solid solutions of titanium dioxide in magnetite containing a rich gamut of impurities V, Cr, Zr and other alloying elements. Russia has gained vast experience in processing gold-bearing ores, but the problem of developing gold-titanomagnetite coastal-marine placers has not yet been solved. The objectives of our research included assessing the possibilities of industrial processing of metal-bearing sands of the Rudnev Bay of the Sea of Japan using pyro-hydrometallurgy and fluoride opening methods. For this, a four-stage scheme for the extraction of useful components was developed. In the first of them, the initial sands underwent gravitational enrichment, followed by separation by electromagnetic separation into magnetic and non-magnetic fractions. In the second stage, the magnetic material represented by titanomagnetite underwent fine grinding, reduction firing in hydrogen, and sintering of the powder material. In the third stage, non-magnetic components, which include the bulk of gold and zircon, served as the feedstock for exposure to a thiocarbamide-thiocinate solution. In the fourth stage, the insoluble cake concentrating zircon was fluorinated with ammonium bifluoride. The use of this scheme for processing metal-bearing sands made it possible to extract native gold, zirconium concentrate and iron powders of various fineness.

Published: December 2019

The digitalization process of the modern economic system tightens the conditions for the functioning of enterprises. Domestic enterprises operate under severe restrictions on time, organizational and financial resources. Organizations are urgently faced with the need to increase the number of opportunities for developing key business processes in a strategic perspective. It is necessary to develop tools to support the adoption of a strategic choice of development priorities based on the use of analytic methods of a multifactorial information array aimed at creating an information data array that provides a single vector of strategic development of an enterprise (PJSC NII PM). The final informational array for determining the strategic development vector of the enterprise is primarily focused on the implementation of the strategy under resource constraints and target key performance indicators. In the course of consistent identification and formulation of the main goals through the definition of goals of a lower order, a hierarchical target system of development strategy is created. The phased digitalization of the domestic economy forms a tendency to increase the demand in the product markets for unique and technologically sophisticated products, which determines a significant number of possible directions for the strategic development of the enterprise. The recommended mechanism for supporting the adoption of a strategic choice of enterprise development priorities contains a number of measures aimed at achieving sustainable development. Formed array of priorities allows you to achieve the goals of forming the optimal integrated development strategy of the enterprise. Implementation of development directions is carried out through the formation and implementation of a development program that allows us to assess the required time intervals for achieving strategic development goals, sources of financial and resource support for the enterprise.

Published: December 2019

The topic of increasing labor productivity for Russia is the most important task, without which the country will have no prospects for reaching the level of developed countries in the world. The results of labor productivity growth have a positive effect on personnel, capital, manufactured products, increased competitiveness, reduced costs, increased sales and profits. In this regard, at the federal level, a national project “Labor productivity and employment support” was developed and approved. The paper considers approaches to the concept of labor productivity, which differ among specialists of various profiles. Many of them mix the terms “efficiency” and “productivity”. A significant number of publications on the topic of labor productivity are actually devoted to efficiency, although efficiency and labor productivity are concepts that are not identical. It should be noted that labor productivity is associated with almost all performance criteria and is the most important of them. The factors that affect the productivity of a subsidiary to develop proposals for updating strategic documents determining its development in the future are analyzed. The factors of labor productivity according to the principle of taxonomy are considered. The main constraints to the growth of labor productivity are determined. The issues of increasing labor productivity are considered. The calculation of the total weight development coefficient of the personnel of one of the subsidiaries showed its growth of over 30%.

Published: December 2019

In the modern world, an increasing number of people prefer poultry sausages, since this product has a low calorie level. In addition, poultry sausages contain less fat and cholesterol, which is ideal for people who have a healthy and balanced diet. The creation of new recipes for products from poultry meat with the inclusion of components of animal and vegetable origin is aimed at increasing meat resources and improving the quality of finished products. In many cases, the addition of new components, as well as changing the ratio and methods of introduction into the recipe, can increase the nutritional value of the finished product. A chicken roll recipe was developed using chicken offal, Unicell-500 hydrated wheat fiber and heat-treated carrots. Kiwi was used to soften offal. Organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological studies of chicken rolls, developed according to classical technology and a new recipe, were carried out. The research results showed that the use of carrots and offal in chicken roll improves the taste of the product, allows you to reduce calorie content and get the product with the necessary consistency, improve functional properties, improves economic performance by reducing the cost of finished products from poultry meat. The use of Unicell-500 dietary fiber reduces the consumption of expensive meat raw materials due to the high moisture-binding ability of fiber. Enrichment of chicken roll allowed to improve physico-chemical, organoleptic, microbiological indicators.

Published: December 2019

A Revista Gestão e Sociedade desde 2017 vem promovendo uma intensa reflexão acerca dos desafios e perspectivas que perpassam a complexa rede que envolve diferentes atores, recursos e instituições ligadas à produção acadêmica, com especial ênfase no campo da Administração. Sempre privilegiando a constituição de mesas e debates com pluralidade de visões, tem sido um espaço altamente qualificado na discussão de temas como fator de impacto e medidas de visibilidade, acesso aos periódicos, publicações locais e internacionais, ciência aberta, comunicação com a sociedade, redes sociais, interações institucionais, últimos movimentos da comunidade acadêmica,  o papel dos programas de pós graduação, dentre outros.

Este amplo conjunto de temas foi contemplado na Mesa de Debates intitulada Produção Científica e Sociedade: a Fronteira entre o Passado e o Futuro, realizado no dia 05 de setembro de 2019 nas dependências da Faculdade de Ciências Econômicas da UFMG, em Belo Horizonte, onde uma discussão altamente qualificada proporcionou uma riquíssima reflexão que ajuda a compreender os dilemas e perspectivas do passado e o que pode vir a ser o futuro.  Por isso, a Editoria Cientifica da Revista Gestão e Sociedade considerou necessário materializar as contribuições dos conferencistas como contributo à comunidade acadêmica do que foi discutido naquele momento. Nele é possível identificar desafios e caminhos possíveis neste amplo esforço de consolidar a importância e visibilidade da comunicação cientifica. Mais do que sete diferentes visões e olhares, manifestam o arguto sentimento de que somente a diversidade e a busca do debate permitem construir caminhos que respeitem as diferenças e reconheçam a complexidade de um ambiente em contínua mutação.
Observing the oceans to predict the future
Authors: Nam Sunghyun
Published: December 2019

The ocean covers more than 70 percent of the surface of the planet and some 97 percent of the Earth's water can be found in our oceans. Many of the serious global issues we face, such as warming waters, melting ice and rising sea levels, are directly related to seas and oceans across
the world. There is also the increased threat of natural disasters such as typhoons and hurricanes, tsunamis, heatwaves and floods. Many of these issues are directly related to ocean processes and so it follows that in order to combat these issues, it is vital that we find a means of better
monitoring, predicting and understanding ocean environments. The Ocean Observation Laboratory (OOL), based at the Seoul National University, Republic of Korea, was founded in 2014 by Professor SungHyun Nam, who leads a laboratory intent on developing our understanding of the oceans to generate
scientific findings that will increasingly become a focal point of our lives. The team at the laboratory is currently composed of 15 members, including graduate students, who work together to improve ocean-observing techniques using state-of-the-art technology. The team collaborates closely
with industrial and academic partners as well as national and international ocean observation networks to pool knowledge and speed up the process of improving our understanding of the oceans.
A Web-Based Geolocated Directory of Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs) in the United States: Description of CPC Map Methods and Design Features and Analysis of Baseline Data
Authors: Swartzendruber Andrea , Lambert Danielle N
Published: December 2019

Background

Crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) are nonprofit organizations that aim to dissuade people considering abortion. The centers frequently advertise in misleading ways and provide inaccurate health information. CPCs in the United States are becoming more medicalized and gaining government funding and support. We created a CPC Map, a Web-based geolocated database of all CPCs currently operating in the United States, to help individuals seeking health services know which centers are CPCs and to facilitate academic research.

Objective

This study aimed to describe the methods used to develop and maintain the CPC Map and baseline findings regarding the number and distribution of CPCs in the United States. We also examined associations between direct state funding and the number of CPCs and relationships between the number of CPCs and state legislation proposed in 2018-2019 to ban all or most abortions.

Methods

In 2018, we used standard protocols to identify and verify the locations of and services offered by CPCs operating in the United States. The CPC Map was designed to be a publicly accessible, user-friendly searchable database that can be easily updated. We examined the number of CPCs and, using existing data, the ratios of women of reproductive age to CPCs and CPCs to abortion facilities nationally and by region, subregion, and state. We used unadjusted and adjusted negative binomial regression models to examine associations between direct state funding and the number of CPCs. We used unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression models to examine associations between the number of CPCs by state and legislation introduced in 2018-2019 to ban all or most abortions. Adjusted models controlled for the numbers of women of reproductive age and abortion facilities per state.

Results

We identified 2527 operating CPCs. Of these, 66.17% (1672/2527) offered limited medical services. Nationally, the ratio of women of reproductive age to CPCs was 29,304:1. The number of CPCs per abortion facility was 3.2. The South and Midwest had the greatest numbers of CPCs. The number of CPCs per state ranged from three (Rhode Island) to 203 (Texas). Direct funding was associated with a greater number of CPCs in unadjusted (coefficient: 0.87, 95% CI 0.51-1.22) and adjusted (coefficient: 0.45, 95% CI 0.33-0.57) analyses. The number of CPCs was associated with the state legislation introduced in 2018-2019 to ban all or most abortions in unadjusted (odds ratio [OR] 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.06) and adjusted analyses (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.04-1.19).

Conclusions

CPCs are located in every state and particularly prevalent in the South and Midwest. Distribution of CPCs in the United States is associated with state funding and extreme proposals to restrict abortion. Researchers should track CPCs over time and examine factors that influence their operations and impact on public health and policy.

Authors: Kann Bonpagna , Chay-intr Thodsaporn , Kaing Hour , Theeramunkong Thanaruk
Published: December 2019

Despite the fact that there are a number of researches working on Khmer Language in the field of Natural Language Processing along with some resources regarding words segmentation and POS Tagging, we still lack of high-level resources regarding syntax, Treebanks and grammars, for example. This paper illustrates the semi-automatic framework of constructing Khmer Treebank and the extraction of the Khmer grammar rules from a set of sentences taken from the Khmer grammar books. Initially, these sentences will be manually annotated and processed to generate a number of grammar rules with their probabilities once the Treebank is obtained. In our experiments, the annotated trees and the extracted grammar rules are analyzed in both quantitative and qualitative way. Finally, the results will be evaluated in three evaluation processes including Self-Consistency, 5-Fold Cross-Validation, Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation along with the three validation methods such as Precision, Recall, F1-Measure. According to the result of the three validations, Self-Consistency has shown the best result with more than 92%, followed by the Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation and 5-Fold Cross Validation with the average of 88% and 75% respectively. On the other hand, the crossing bracket data shows that Leave-One-Out Cross Validation holds the highest average with 96% while the other two are 85% and 89%, respectively.

A emergência do gesto de apontar na Síndrome de Down em contexto clínico
Authors: De Melo Ediclécia Sousa , Barbosa Lima Ivonaldo Leidson , Nóbrega Paulo Vinícius Ávila
Published: December 2019

A síndrome de Down (SD) é uma condição genética que provoca uma série de alterações no desenvolvimento linguístico da criança. Em relação à linguagem, é importante considerar sua natureza multimodal, assumindo-a como um envelope linguístico (ÁVILA-NÓBREGA, 2018) constituído de gestos, fala e olhar. Desse modo, é fundamental observar como o envelope linguístico multimodal emerge e é mobilizado pela criança com SD, em diferentes contextos. Este trabalho teve o objetivo de analisar a emergência do gesto do apontar de crianças com SD, em contextos de atendimento clínico. O estudo foi desenvolvido na Clínica Escola de Fonoaudiologia de uma instituição de ensino superior da Paraíba, a partir do registro de atendimentos terapêuticos fonoaudiológicos de duas díades: estagiária e criança com SD. Os dados foram registrados qualitativamente no programa ELAN – EUDICO Linguistic Annotator. Pode-se observar que o gesto de apontar emergiu com frequência no envelope linguístico multimodal das crianças, facilitando sua interação com as estagiárias, bem como na atenção conjunta e referência.
Projeto de letramento e sequência didática na OLP: propostas para o ensino de leitura e escrita
Authors: Fernandes Francisca Vaneíse Andrade , Medeiros Priscila Do Vale Silva
Published: December 2019

Neste artigo, pretendemos evidenciar as contribuições decorrentes de dois modelos didáticos: um projeto de letramento e uma sequência didática, ambos voltados para o ensino de leitura e escrita. Teoricamente, fundamentamo-nos nos estudos de letramento (KLEIMAN, 2000, 2006; TINOCO, 2008; OLIVEIRA; TINOCO; SANTOS, 2011) e no modelo de sequência didática (DOLZ; SCHNEUWLY, 2004; ARAÚJO, 2013). Metodologicamente, este trabalho está ancorado na Linguística Aplicada (MOITA LOPES, 2006) e, para a análise que ora nos propomos, investimos em um trabalho interpretativista dos corpora de duas pesquisas de intervenção desenvolvidas no âmbito do Mestrado Profissional em Letras (PROFLETRAS) e que tiveram em comum a participação na Olimpíada de Língua Portuguesa. A análise desses dados evidencia três contribuições que emergem do projeto de letramento e da sequência didática focalizados e que são comuns às duas propostas de ensino de leitura e escrita: escrita como prática social, produção de diferentes gêneros e ressignificação da prática de alunos e professores.
À procura da poesia em uma novela de Guimarães Rosa
Authors: Marques José Geraldo
Published: December 2019

A partir de alguns pressupostos estéticos da Análise Dialógica do Discurso (ADD), este artigo discute o estatuto poético da obra de João Guimarães Rosa a partir de alguns discursos presentes na novela “Cara-de-Bronze”. Tomamos como base para nossas reflexões, em primeiro lugar, a impossibilidade de distinção entre a linguagem poética e a linguagem cotidiana, ideias caras ao Círculo de Bakhtin. Também recorremos a Bakhtin no que concerne ao objeto estético e suas relações inextricáveis com a vida, transfiguradas esteticamente para outro plano axiológico (plano dos valores). Propomos também neste artigo um esboço do que nomeamos de teoria dialógica da imagem poética.
