The formation of the monastic communal living traditions in the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius
Authors: Vasikhovskaya Natalia S.
Published: August 2019

The article is devoted to the emergence of the monastic communal living traditions in the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, one of the significant monasteries in Medieval Rus. The paper focuses on the activity of Sergius of Radonezh who contributed to the revival of the lost tradition of communal living and the enhancement of the principles and rules of monastic life. By using conventional sources (Life of Sergius of Radonezh, etc.) and relying on historical anthropological and hermeneutic approaches, the author focuses on the reconstruction of some aspects of the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius monks’ everyday life, trying to identify internal and external factors that determined rules and standards as well as particularities of the monks’ lifestyle. The author concentrated upon the monks’ daily routine, monastic obedience, nutrition and clothing, embodiment of Christian ideals of monastic life, which quite often coexisted with deviations from monastic life standards, as well as on the existence of succession in the revival of the lost traditions of the monastic life.
The orthodox landscape in Ekaterinburg (Sverdlovsk) before the Word War II: historical and statistical analysis
Authors: Bakharev Dmitry S. , Glavatskaya Elena M.
Published: August 2019

This article focuses on the decline of the Russian Orthodox Church landscape during the period 1917-1941 in one of the key Russian provincial cities — Ekaterinburg (named Sverdlovsk in 1924). It was during this period that the Soviet state carried out the most comprehensive attacks on religion, closing churches, destroying religious organizations and their buildings as well as persecuting religious leaders. We use the “religious landscape” concept to analyze the evolution of the religious situation in the city. However, we studied not only the main markers of religion in Ekaterinburg, but also the number of parishioners and the frequency of everyday religious rites. The study is based on documents extracted from the local archives and statistical aggregates. This allowed us to reconstruct the decline of the Orthodox landscape and its main features in three different periods between 1917 and 1941. We argue that the Bolsheviks’ anti-religious measures in the 1920s should be considered as part of the general European secularization, which started before 1917. The data obtained give grounds to put forward a hypothesis about the weak effect of the Bolsheviks’ measures regarding the Orthodox Church nucleus — its active parishioners, for about 25% of the city’s population kept practicing the main religious rites until the mid-1930s.

Published: August 2019

Today, cardiovascular diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality
worldwide. Endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) does not only play a major role in the
course of development but also contributes to several cardiovascular diseases in adulthood. EndMT
is characterized by down-regulation of the endothelial proteins and highly up-regulated fibrotic
specific genes and extracellular matrix-forming proteins. EndMT is also a transforming growth factor-
β-driven (TGF-β) process in which endothelial cells lose their endothelial characteristics and
acquire a mesenchymal phenotype with expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), fibroblastspecific
protein 1, etc. EndMT is a vital process during cardiac development, thus disrupted EndMT
gives rise to the congenital heart diseases, namely septal defects and valve abnormalities. In this
review, we have discussed the main signaling pathways and mechanisms participating in the process
of EndMT such as TGF-β and Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), Wnt#, and Notch signaling
pathway and also studied the role of EndMT in physiological cardiovascular development and
pathological conditions including myocardial infarction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, congenital
heart defects, cardiac fibrosis, and atherosclerosis. As a perspective view, having a clear understanding
of involving cellular and molecular mechanisms in EndMT and conducting Randomized
controlled trials (RCTs) with a large number of samples for involving pharmacological agents may
guide us into novel therapeutic approaches of congenital disorders and heart diseases.
Development of Ultrasonic Vibration Assisted Micro Electrochemical Discharge Machining Tool
Authors: Li Xiaokun , Ren Yuankai , Wei Zhiyuan , Liu Yong
Published: August 2019

Background:

The fabrication of microstructures with high machining quality is always difficult
when it is concerned with non-conductive hard and brittle materials such as glass and engineering
ceramics. It is reported in related papers and patents that Electrochemical Discharge Machining
(ECDM) process is a good choice for machining non-conductive, hard and brittle materials. However,
the machining performance of ECDM process, especially in the aspect of geometric accuracy and surface
quality, needs to be greatly improved.

Objective:

The purpose of this study was to improve the machining quality of conventional ECDM
process by introducing ultrasonic vibration to ECDM process, develop an Ultrasonic Vibration Assisted
Micro Electrochemical Discharge Machining (UAECDM) tool, and investigate the improvements of
the machining performance by means of comparative experiments.

Methods:

Firstly, the machining principle of UAECDM was investigated, and the effects of ultrasonic
vibration are discussed with the analysis of the micro process. Secondly, the hardware system, which
consists of a machine tool body, XY and Z axes, an ultrasonic spindle system and motion control system,
was established; and the software system was developed based on the analysis of the overall
workflow of the machining process. Finally, comparative experiments, including ECDM drilling,
UAECDM drilling, ECDM milling and UAECDM milling, were carried out to reveal the improvements
of the machining quality.

Results:

In the UAECDM group, a micro-hole with the inlet diameter of 133.2µm as well as the 3 × 3
array of micro holes was fabricated on the glass workpiece with 300µm thickness, and a microgroove
with the width of 119.2µm was successfully milled on the glass workpiece. It is shown in both microscopic
photographs and optical measurements that the microstructures fabricated by UAECDM have
better machining quality compared with similar microstructures fabricated by ECDM.

Conclusion:

Based on comparative experiments and discussions of the results, it has been proved that
the machine tool can meet the requirement of the ultrasonic vibration-assisted micro electrochemical
discharge machining and can improve the geometric accuracy and surface quality significantly.

Published: August 2019

Modern video compression standards require significant computational costs for their implementation. With a high rate of receipt of video data and significant computational costs, it may be preferable to use hardware rather than software compression tools. The article proposes a method for synchronizing data streams during hardware implementation of compression / decompression in accordance with the H.264 standard. The developed video codec is an IP core as part of an 1892ВМ14Я microcircuit operating under the control of an external processor core. The architecture and the main characteristics of the video codec are presented. To synchronize the operation of the computing blocks and the controller of direct access to the video memory, the video codec contains an event register, which is a set of data readiness flags for the blocks involved in processing. The experimental results of measuring performance characteristics on real video scenes with various formats of the transmitted image, which confirmed the high throughput of the developed video codec, are presented.
Tools for generation and results analysis of SOC performance tests
Authors: Zhezlov K. A. , Nikitin S. A.
Published: August 2019

To ensure that the SoC project complies with the requirements for efficiency on applied tasks, the entire route of developing SoC, starting with architectural design and ending with qualification tests of the topological list of chains, should be focused on early localization of performance problems. A critical point in terms of performance is the interconnect subsystem of the So C. As part of this work, a tool for generating tests, aimed at verifying the compliance of the system with the stated requirements, was proposed. This tool implements the generation of test scenarios based on the description of data streams and their interdependencies, taking constraints into account. Describing data streams at a high level of abstraction and considering constraints allows you to automatically generate both simple load tests and complex tests based on usage scenarios that require consideration of data dependencies. To automate the analysis of test results, an error analysis tool was developed, the task of which is to scan the test logs and find the reasons for their unsuccessful completion. This module helps to automate the decision to match the current state of the project with the test plan, thus helping to decide on the allocation of resources to the project.

Published: August 2019

The aims of this systematic review were to collect a list of published articles on dental faculty development and to determine the types and location of programs evaluated and years of publication. A subset of selected articles were then assessed using Kirkpatrick assessment model four levels: learner reaction, participant learning, participant behavioral change, and changes in organizational practice. The search, conducted in 2016, comprised all potentially relevant articles in the following databases: PubMed, EMBASE via Ovid, and ERIC. The study screening was done by three reviewers in multiple stages: by title, abstract, and full text review. Following deduplication, 257 titles were obtained; of those, 102 articles were selected for abstract review. As a result of that review, 32 articles were excluded, leaving 70 for data extraction. The majority of the 70 articles were about programs in the U.S., and two‐thirds were studies conducted at individual academic institutions. Most focused on faculty development initiatives (n=49), followed by retention (n=22), recruitment (n=16), and/or promotion/tenure (n=11). The year with the highest number of published articles was 1991 (n=10, 14%), followed by 2007 and 2011 (n=6, 8.6% each). Among the 12 articles evaluated with the Kirkpatrick model, most assessed Levels 1, 2, and 3, but very few addressed Level 4. Research in those 12 articles was conducted primarily at two dental schools: New York University College of Dentistry (n=5) and University of Florida College of Dentistry (n=4). This study generated a varied list of published articles on faculty development, but the results point to the need for research at more institutions and using additional methodologies.

Published: August 2019

The aim of this study was to assess the association among admissions variables, dental school performance, and licensing exam performance for six cohorts of graduates of one dental school. Data from all dental school graduates of Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, Western University, Canada, from 2009 to 2014 who had matching National Dental Examining Board of Canada (NDEB) data (N=298) were analyzed. In the results, significant differences between cohorts were found on both the NDEB objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) and written scores. Approximately 18% of the variation in OSCE scores was attributable to cohort differences and 82% to student differences. Approximately 10% of the variation in written scores was attributable to cohort differences and 90% to student differences. Several multilevel models were conducted. The final predictive model for NDEB OSCE scores consisted of age, Canadian Dental Aptitude Test (DAT) reading comprehension scores, year 2 average, and year 4 average. For predicting NDEB written exam scores, the final model consisted of DAT chemistry and year 1, 2, and 4 averages. The findings of this study showed that academic performance on admissions variables and in training predicted performance on dental licensing exams, whereas variables that captured noncognitive or interpersonal skills, such as interview scores, were not predictive. This difference may be due to construct mismatch, such that the outcome variables had no theoretical association with the predictors. Additional outcome measures (including noncognitive) are needed that have greater ecological validity in predicting potential for competence in practice.

Published: August 2019

Dental students in North American dental schools are exposed to faculty members with various professional backgrounds. These faculty members may include dentists, dental hygienists, and scientists without clinical dental credentials. The practice of dental hygienists’ educating predoctoral dental students has not been well documented. The aims of this two‐part study were to investigate the parameters of didactic, preclinical, and clinical instruction of dental students by dental hygienist faculty members in North American dental schools and to explore dental students’ perceptions of this form of teaching. In part one, a survey was sent electronically to the clinical or academic affairs deans of all 76 American Dental Education Association (ADEA) member dental schools in 2017. Twenty‐nine responded, for a 38.2% response rate. In 76% of the responding schools, dental hygienists were teaching dental students. Most respondents reported that, in their schools, the minimum degree required to teach didactically was a master's, while a bachelor's degree was required for preclinical and clinical courses. There was no significant association between dental hygienists’ instructing dental students and having a dental hygiene educational program at the institution. In part two of the study, a questionnaire was completed by 102 graduating dental students (85% response rate) at one U.S. university to evaluate the impact of dental hygienist educators. Among the respondents, 87% reported feeling that dental hygienists were very effective educators. There were no significant differences in responses between traditional and advanced standing international dental students. This study found that dental hygienists were educating dental students in many North American dental schools and were doing so in curricular content beyond periodontics and that their educational contributions at a sample school were valued by the dental students there.
Development and Evaluation of a Virtual Research Environment to Improve Quality of Care in Overcrowded Emergency Departments: Observational Study
Authors: Houze-Cerfon Charles-Henri , Vaissié Christine , Gout Laurent , Bastiani Bruno , Charpentier Sandrine , Lauque Dominique
Published: August 2019

Background

Despite a wide range of literature on emergency department (ED) overcrowding, scientific knowledge on emergency physicians’ cognitive processes coping with overcrowding is limited.

Objective

This study aimed to develop and evaluate a virtual research environment that will allow us to study the effect of physicians’ strategies and behaviors on quality of care in the context of ED overcrowding.

Methods

A simulation-based observational study was conducted over two stages: the development of a simulation model and its evaluation. A research environment in emergency medicine combining virtual reality and simulated patients was designed and developed. Afterwards, 12 emergency physicians took part in simulation scenarios and had to manage 13 patients during a 2-hour period. The study outcome was the authenticity of the environment through realism, consistency, and mastering. The realism was the resemblance perceived by the participants between virtual and real ED. The consistency of the scenario and the participants’ mastering of the environment was expected for 90% (12/13) of the participants.

Results

The virtual ED was considered realistic with no significant difference from the real world with respect to facilities and resources, except for the length of time of procedures that was perceived to be shorter. A total of 100% (13/13) of participants deemed that patient information, decision making, and managing patient flow were similar to real clinical practice. The virtual environment was well-mastered by all participants over the course of the scenarios.

Conclusions

The new simulation tool, Virtual Research Environment in Emergency Medicine, has been successfully designed and developed. It has been assessed as perfectly authentic by emergency physicians compared with real EDs and thus offers another way to study human factors, quality of care, and patient safety in the context of ED overcrowding.
An Exploratory Study into the Use of Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Larvae in the Production of a Vienna-Style Sausage
Authors: Bessa Leah W. , Pieterse Elsje , Sigge Gunnar , Hoffman L C.
Published: August 2019

Western consumers are becoming more aware of the environmental impact of consuming meat, which has led to an increase in research into protein alternatives with specific interest in insects as a viable option. To determine whether insects could be used in an emulsified sausage application, 4 different treatments were investigated to obtain a Vienna-style sausage made from black soldier fly larvae (BSFL). Treatments consisted of a commercially formulated pork Vienna (control) and 3 BSFL treatments with varying concentrations of BSFL (28, 31, and 34%). Proximate composition, and texture profile analysis on d 1 and d 14 (refrigerated storage) were determined. The pork treatment was higher (P < 0.001) in protein and moisture than all of the BSFL treatments, however, there was no difference between treatments with regard to fat or ash content. Texture profile analysis indicated that the treatments had no effect on perceived hardness and cohesion on d 1. With regard to gumminess and springiness, the pork Vienna sausage had the highest (P < 0.001) gumminess values. After 14 d of refrigerated storage the pork treatment retained its hardness, however, there was a decrease (P < 0.001) in the hardness of all of the BSFL treatments. Cohesion values differed between treatments on d 14 (P < 0.001), but both the 34% and 31% treatments were comparable to the pork treatment. On d 1 there was a difference in springiness between the 34% treatment and 28% treatment (P < 0.05), and only the control and 28% treatment retained its springiness at d 14. This study establishes that although BSFL Vienna-style sausages differ from pork Vienna sausages in terms of nutritional composition and perceived texture, out of the 3 BSFL treatments, the 28% BSFL treatment was most comparable to the pork treatment in terms of protein content, ash content, perceived hardness, cohesion, and gumminess, thereby showing the potential of BSFL for partial use in emulsified meat products.

Published: August 2019

Introduction: the glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) is a composite material that found wide application in construction due to its unique properties. One of the techniques of joining composite units is a bolt attachment that is distinguished by its stability and manufacturability. Owing to relative novelty of the material, there is no comprehensive experimental database and it is impossible to define the corresponding reliability coefficients. The given problem can be solved by means of accelerated climatic tests, which will replace multi-year observation over the installations and will allow conducting precise calculations during design work right nowadays.

Materials and methods: the climatic tests were conducted over samples fabricated from polymeric structural pultrusion profile GFRP for construction purposes produced by Research-and-Production Enterprise ApATeCh (Moscow). The samples were fabricated from a single batch of U-channel 388 × 120 × 10/12 (SPPS-340). The test method consists in sequential cyclic exposure of artificially created system of climatic factors (elevated air temperature and humidity, negative temperature, temperature gradients) to the tested samples and determination of material property variations under the described impacts in the main indicators or the indicator responsible for workability of the material.

Results: the obtained data were processed and the strength-time variation dependences were presented in graphic form. Using approximating dependences, the strength reduction coefficients of the bolt attachment were calculated for 100-year thermomoist exposure.

Conclusions: any significant influence of ultraviolet exposure to strength of the bolt attachments was not revealed. 100-year thermomoist exposure will reduce the bolt attachment strength by not more than one third. One can recommend to introduce revisions in normative documents including reduction of reliability coefficient K2, allowing for GFRP maintenance ageing, from 1.2 to 1.13 in company standard “Road and construction structures from composite materials”.

Net deferred tax assets and the long-run performance of Initial Public Offerings
Authors: Kovermann Jost , Velte Patrick
Published: August 2019

On average, firms’ going public severely underperform compared to the market, a phenomenon which is widely known in the literature as IPO underperformance. Though there is no generally accepted theory on the reasons, information asymmetries and the scarcity of information on the issuers is generally considered to contribute to the phenomenon. Accounting data provided by issuers in the offering prospectuses is mostly backward-looking information that is of limited use in forming expectations of future performance. This problem becomes even more pressing, given the increasing fraction of loss firms among IPOs.
Net deferred tax assets (NDTA), however, are a balance sheet item that can be expected to include forward-looking information on future earnings. Reporting under IFRS, firms may recognize NDTA only to the extent, that positive income will be available in future periods. We, therefore, expect NDTA to be positively associated with the long-run performance of IPOs. Investigating a sample of firms going public in Germany between 2005 and 2015, we find that NDTA are positively associated with long-run stock price performance. The association is particularly strong among loss firms.
Our findings are relevant especially to investors, who regularly have difficulties valuing loss firms. We show that firms which recognized NDTA perform much better in the aftermarket than those that do not have NDTA on the balance sheet. The most important lesson to be learned is that IPO firms that did not recognize NDTA will likely be very poor investments.
Polarization of white-light solar corona and sky polarization effect during total solar eclipse on March 29, 2006
Authors: Merzlyakov V. , Tsvetkov Ts. , Starkova L. , Miteva R.
Published: August 2019

Ground-based total solar eclipse observations are still the key method for coronal investigations. The question about its white-light degree of polarization remains unanswered. There are hypotheses claiming that the degree of polarization in certain regions of the corona may be higher than the maximal theoretically predicted value determined by Thomson scattering. We present polarization of the white-light solar corona observations obtained by three different teams during the March 29, 2006 solar total eclipse. We give an interpretation on how the polarization of the sky impacts brightness of the polarized solar corona, depending on the landscape during the totality. Moreover, it is shown that the singular polarization points of the corona are in linear dependence with the height of the Sun above the horizon.
Airway and Cephalometric Changes in Adult Orthodontic Patients After Premolar Extractions
Authors: Joy Adrienne , Park Joorok , Chambers David William , Oh Heesoo
Published: August 2019

Objective

To examine changes in the airway and cephalometric measurements associated with orthodontic treatment of adults with and without premolar extractions. The study investigated whether extractions had a direct or indirect effect on the airway and examined selected skeletal and dental features.

Materials and Methods

This retrospective study used pre- (T1) and posttreatment (T2) cone-beam computed tomography scans of 83 adult patients matched for age and sex. A total of 15 airway and 10 skeletal and dental measures were analyzed by means of repeated-measures analysis of variance.

Results

There were no results showing that extractions affected airway dimensions that could not be accounted for as reflections of measurement error. There was no evidence that extractions affected the airway indirectly through skeletal and dental changes. There were strong and consistent findings that patients with small airways showed larger ones after treatment and that patients with large airways showed smaller ones later. These effects were independent of whether or not extractions were part of treatment. The measurement phenomena of regression toward the mean and of differential unfolding of natural changes over time could have accounted for the results observed.

Conclusions

There was no evidence that extractions in nongrowing patients have negative consequences on the size of various airway measures in the nasopharynx, retropalatal, or retroglossal regions.
Cognitions Associated With Hypoglycemia Awareness Status and Severe Hypoglycemia Experience in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes
Authors: Cook Amelia J. , DuBose Stephanie N. , Foster Nicole , Smith Emma L. , Wu Mengdi , Margiotta Georgina , Rickels Michael R. , Speight Jane , de Zoysa Nicole , Amiel Stephanie A.
Published: August 2019

OBJECTIVE

Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) and recurrent severe hypoglycemia (RSH) remain problematic for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), despite major therapeutic advances. We explored beliefs around hypo- and hyperglycemia in adults with T1D with, and without, IAH and RSH.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

A cross-sectional U.S. multicenter survey included Attitudes to Awareness of Hypoglycemia (A2A; a 19-item questionnaire concerning beliefs about hypoglycemia), the Gold score (single item: awareness of hypoglycemia), and a question about severe hypoglycemia over the preceding year. The survey was emailed to 6,200 adult participants of the annual T1D Exchange clinic registry data collection. A2A data were subjected to principal component analysis with varimax rotation.

RESULTS

Among 1,978 respondents (response rate 32%), 61.7% were women, mean ± SD age was 39.6 ± 16.3 years, and T1D duration was 23.1 ± 13.8 years. Thirty-seven percent reported IAH, 16% RSH, and 9% both. A2A items segregated into three factors, differently distributed by hypoglycemia experience. Respondents with IAH or RSH expressed appropriate concern about hypoglycemia, but those with IAH were more likely to prioritize hyperglycemia concerns than those with intact awareness (P = 0.002). Those with RSH showed greater normalization of asymptomatic hypoglycemia than those without (P = 0.019) and trended toward prioritizing hyperglycemia concerns (P = 0.097), driven by those with both IAH and RSH.

CONCLUSIONS

Adults with T1D with IAH and RSH report specific cognitions about hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, which may act as barriers to hypoglycemia avoidance and recovery of awareness. These may be modifiable and present a target for enhancing engagement of vulnerable people with strategies to avoid future hypoglycemia.
Paradoxical Rise in Hypoglycemia Symptoms With Development of Hyperglycemia During High-Intensity Interval Training in Type 1 Diabetes
Authors: Potashner Dana , Brown Ruth E. , Li Aihua , Riddell Michael C. , Aronson Ronnie
Published: August 2019

OBJECTIVE

To assess the reliability of self-perception of glycemia during high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

This randomized crossover study included subjects who completed four fasted HIIT sessions. Subjects answered the Edinburgh Hypoglycemia Scale, estimated their blood glucose (BG), and had plasma glucose (PG) collected throughout exercise and recovery.

RESULTS

As PG increased throughout exercise, hypoglycemia scores increased across each category: autonomic (3.1–4.4, P < 0.05), neuroglycopenic (1.5–2.4, P < 0.05), and nonspecific (1.3–1.9, P < 0.05). Subjects’ estimated BG showed a negative bias that widened as exercise progressed and peaked at −1.6 ± 3.3 mmol/L (P < 0.001) postinsulin correction.

CONCLUSIONS

During HIIT, despite progressing hyperglycemia, subjects experience increased hypoglycemia symptoms and tend to underestimate their BG level.
Modern Türk Şehir Planlamasında Aktif Yeşil Alan Standardı: Kayseri Şehir Planlarında Zamansal Bir İnceleme
Authors: ÇABUK Suat
Published: August 2019

Bu çalışmanın amacı, şehir planlarında önemli bir yere sahip olan aktif yeşil alanlara ilişkin mekânsal standardın Türk imar mevzuatında ve Kayseri şehir planlarında zamansal değişimini incelemektir. Osmanlı’dan günümüze imar mevzuatında aktif yeşil alanlar için ortaya konulan asgari standartlar ile Kayseri’nin 1933, 1944, 1975 ve 1986 yıllarında hazırlanan dört şehir planında beklenen değerler ile dönem sonunda gözlenen değerler, betimleyici araştırma yöntemi çerçevesinde ele alınmıştır. Modern Türk şehir planlamasında ve imar mevzuatında yeşil alan kavramı, gerçek anlamını Cumhuriyet Dönemi’nde kazanmıştır. Türk şehirciliğinde yeşil alan standartları ise 1933 yılından beri kullanılmaktadır. Kayseri şehir planları hazırlanırken, başlangıçta imar mevzuatında öngörülen asgari standartlara uyulduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Buna karşılık 2006 yılında şehirde gözlenen kişi başına 2,97 m2 aktif yeşil alan değeri, oldukça düşük bir düzeye işaret etmektedir.Araştırma kapsamında, Kayseri’de kişi başına aktif yeşil alan değeri, Osmanlı’nın son yıllarında 0,89 m2, birinci plan dönemi sonu olan 1944 yılında 1,04 m2, ikinci plan dönemi sonu olan 1975 yılında 3,40 m2, üçüncü plan dönemi sonu olan 1986 yılında 1,84 m2 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada incelenen son Kayseri şehir planı ise dördüncü plan olup, dönem sonu olarak 2006 yılı esas alındığında kişi başına 2,97 m2 aktif yeşil alan değeri ile karşılaşılmaktadır. Bu bulgular ışığında, imar mevzuatının 1933 yılından günümüze zorlayıcı hükümlerine ve Kayseri’de uygulamaya geçirilen dört şehir planına rağmen, asgari aktif yeşil alan değerlerine -günümüzde 10 m2/kişi- 2006 yılına kadar ulaşılamadığı sonucuna varılmaktadır. Kayseri’de metropoliten alan sınırının 2004 yılında değişmesi ile şehrin çeperlerindeki yeşil alan potansiyeli, 2006 sonrasında hazırlanan yeni planlarda devreye alınmıştır. Bu planlarda 2025 yılı hedeflenmiş olup, şehir nüfusunun 1.700.000 olacağı varsayılarak, yine asgari düzeyden hareketle kişi başına 10 m2 aktif yeşil ayrılması öngörülmüştür.

A apropriação de John Dewey na Revista Brasileira de Estudos Pedagógicos (1944-1964)
Authors: Cunha Marcus , Garcia Débora
Published: August 2019

O artigo analisa a presença de John Dewey nas páginas da Revista Brasileira de Estudos Pedagógicos, por meio de oitenta e oito matérias que mencionam o filósofo no período de 1944 a 1964, no intuito de compor um quadro analítico-descritivo sobre os vários modos de menção ao pensamento deweyano. As matérias foram classificadas em três categorias, de acordo com a relevância do nome Dewey no corpo dos textos, visando compreender quais aspectos do pensamento do autor – políticos, filosóficos ou pedagógicos – foram privilegiados em cada uma delas. A discussão fundamentou-se nas noções de “apropriação” e “recontextualização”, em que se considera o uso que um autor faz das idéias de outro, ao elaborar os argumentos que deseja comunicar aos leitores em defesa de suas teses.

Palavras-chave: John Dewey; Periódicos educacionais; Discurso pedagógico

This paper analyzes the presence of John Dewey in the Revista Brasileira de Estudos Pedagógicos, by means of eighty-eight articles that mention the philosopher in the period of 1944 to 1964; the intention is to compose an analytical description of the various ways of mentioning the deweyan thought in those articles. The articles had been classified in three categories, in accordance with the relevance of the name Dewey within the text, in order to understand what aspects of the deweyan thought – political, philosophical or pedagogical – had been privileged in each article. The discussion was based on the concepts “appropriation” and “re-contextualization” that express the use that an author makes of the ideas of another one, in elaborating the arguments that are to be communicated in defense of the author’s major theses.

Esse processo alcançou condições de aparecimento a partir da nacionalização do ensino, movimento político que produziu espaços nos quais foi possível que o discurso da modernização e do aparelhamento do Estado se estabelecesse para a execução de uma reforma educacional que se instalou de forma ampla, intensa e profunda. Tal reforma se inseriu num contexto de reorganização e racionalização dos serviços de instrução pública, no âmbito do qual a população e a educação emergiram como um problema de governo. Nesse processo, destacou-se a participação de Lourenço Filho, que contribuiu, de forma proeminente, para a instalação da modernização educacional no Rio Grande do Sul.
Processo de pesquisa e formação de educadores: reflexões a partir do curso de Pedagogia
Authors: Cardieri Elisabete , Rosa Sanny
Published: August 2019

O artigo aborda o papel da pesquisa na formação de professores por meio do relato da introdução dessa atividade como dimensão transversal do currículo no curso de Pedagogia de uma universidade privada de São Paulo. Práticas curriculares de pesquisa que valorizem o rigor científico na produção e divulgação de seus resultados devem ser estimuladas na graduação, pois vinculam-se ao perfil de um professor investigativo e atento às questões e impasses da prática cotidiana. Os resultados preliminares de uma investigação, iniciada em 2007, sobre o processo de pesquisa na graduação apontam o universo de interesse temático dos alunos e permitem levantar algumas pistas para a discussão do sentido e importância da pesquisa na formação inicial de professores nos cursos de Pedagogia.
Representações sociais da avaliação da aprendizagem em professores do ensino público fundamental de Niterói
Authors: Azâmor Cristiany , Naiff Luciene
Published: August 2019

O presente estudo investigou as representações sociais de professores do ensino fundamental da rede pública municipal de Niterói em relação ao tema avaliação da aprendizagem. A perspectiva teórica de base utilizada foi a Teoria das Representações Sociais de Serge Moscovici. O estudo adotou a abordagem estrutural dessa teoria proposta por Jean Claude Abric. Nesse sentido, levantamos os possíveis elementos formadores do núcleo central das representações sociais de 84 professores do ensino fundamental, de cinco escolas públicas do município de Niterói. As representações sociais indicaram elementos que consideram a avaliação como algo necessário, distante da ideia de aprovar ou reprovar o aluno, mas próximo da de reorganizar suas práticas.
Meninos e meninas num projeto de recuperação paralela
Authors: Pereira Fábio , Carvalho Marília
Published: August 2019

Este artigo é resultado de pesquisa de mestrado cujo objetivo consistiu em analisar, segundo as relações de gênero, os motivos de encaminhamentos de crianças a um projeto de recuperação paralela. Buscamos verificar se as dificuldades de aprendizagem percebidas pelas professoras variavam conforme o sexo das crianças, uma vez que a proporção de meninos com dificuldades era mais que o dobro da de meninas. A pesquisa de campo centrou-se em uma escola de ensino fundamental, bem estruturada e com um bem-sucedido projeto de recuperação paralela. Foram feitas observações e entrevistas semiestruturadas com as professoras regentes de classe e da recuperação. Entre as razões para a presença majoritária de meninos na recuperação, encontramos as percepções das professoras a respeito de alunos e alunas. Se não podemos fazer uma associação linear entre os tipos de dificuldades apontadas e cada um dos sexos, identificamos significados diferentes em falas semelhantes, variações na interpretação do mesmo comportamento, além de diferentes graus de visibilidade de determinadas características, conforme se tratasse de menino ou menina.
