DOCUMENTÁRIOS DE CIÊNCIAS NA FORMAÇÃO INICIAL DE PROFESSORES: CONTRIBUIÇÕES PARA UMA LEITURA CRÍTICA SOBRE O AQUECIMENTO GLOBAL
Authors: Pereira Aldo Aoyagui Gomes
Published: August 2020

Neste estudo, analisamos uma atividade desenvolvida com licenciandos em física de uma instituição federal do estado de São Paulo. O principal objetivo da atividade foi investigar o discurso produzido por estes licenciandos ao se engajarem em um debate sobre as possíveis causas do aquecimento global após assistirem dois documentários de ciências. O primeiro intitulado “Uma Verdade Inconveniente” e o segundo “A grande farsa do aquecimento global”. Ambos utilizam uma textualização persuasiva, como depoimentos de cientistas, gráficos, simulações, imagens, etc. para argumentar em favor de 1) causas antropogênicas e 2) causas naturais do aquecimento global, respectivamente. As seguintes questões orientaram nossa análise: as estratégias retóricas utilizadas nesses documentários contribuíram para o posicionamento desses licenciandos em relação às causas do aquecimento global? Se sim, de que maneira? Até que ponto atividades dessa natureza podem contribuir para o desenvolvimento da alfabetização em mídia científica na educação básica? Utilizamos como apoio teórico-metodológico a Análise do Discurso francesa, principalmente por meio de trabalhos publicados no Brasil por Eni Orlandi, além de trabalhos acadêmicos das áreas de divulgação científica e documentários. A análise sugere que o estilo dos documentários, juntamente com aspectos históricos e contextuais, influenciaram o posicionamento final dos licenciandos em relação às causas do aquecimento global.
A PESQUISA EM EDUCAÇÃO EM CIÊNCIAS E MATEMÁTICA COM MICHEL FOUCAULT: PROPAGAÇÃO DA TEORIZAÇÃO FOUCAULTIANA NA ÁREA (1990 A 2016)
Authors: Schnorr Samuel Molina , Pietrocola Maurício
Published: August 2020

À medida que pesquisadores anunciam uma difusão do pensamento de Michel Foucault na educação, também demonstram uma preocupação com os usos desse referencial. Nesse sentido, nos interessa saber como a educação em ciências e matemática, área do conhecimento que tangencia a educação, repercute as ideias do autor. Este trabalho teve como objetivo mapear as pesquisas em educação em ciências e matemática que desenvolvem os conceitos de Michel Foucault e descrever como o trabalho do autor tem sido utilizado na área. Para isso, nos concentramos nos periódicos da área de Ensino, classificados nos estratos A1 e A2, de acordo com o sistema Qualis-CAPES. Selecionamos 26 revistas que tinham como foco a educação em ciências e matemática (n=17) ou a educação de forma mais abrangente (n=9). Buscamos, nos volumes publicados entre 1990 e 2016, todos os artigos que citaram ao menos uma vez uma obra de Michel Foucault e classificamos os textos de acordo com a sua aproximação da obra foucaultiana, em três diferentes abordagens: apropriação incidental, conceitual tópica ou do modo de trabalho. A análise foi realizada em dois momentos: um em que efetuamos um sobrevoo nos dados dos 238 artigos que fizeram uma apropriação do modo de trabalho foucaultiano e outro em que selecionamos 18 textos específicos da área, por meio de palavras-chave relacionadas ao ensino de ciências e matemática, para investigar com maior profundidade os usos desse referencial pelos pesquisadores da área. Sustentamos que há uma difusão de pesquisas na área que operam o modo de trabalho foucaultiano, sobretudo a partir dos anos 2000. A apropriação teórica e metodológica de Foucault encontrada nos artigos se aproxima mais dos procedimentos da análise do discurso, todavia percebemos uma restrição no uso das fontes empíricas. Os autores utilizam o pensamento foucaultiano, em grande parte, como uma ferramenta metodológica e para realizar críticas de segunda ordem, investindo sobre as ideais e práticas já consolidadas na área.
PROFESSORES DE BIOLOGIA E CONFLITOS SOCIOAMBIENTAIS: FORMAÇÃO CONTINUADA EM SUAPE-PE
Authors: Brito Leandro Tavares Santos , Araújo Monica Lopes Folena
Published: August 2020

No estado de Pernambuco há o Complexo Industrial Portuário de Suape – CIPS, localizado nos municípios do Cabo de Santo Agostinho e de Ipojuca. Essa região é caracterizada pela ocorrência de diversos conflitos socioambientais oriundos da instalação de empresas. Esse é o ambiente de atuação de professores de Biologia que, tradicionalmente, são os profissionais mais dedicados às atividades relacionadas a Educação Ambiental – EA. O CIPS oferece cursos voltados a EA cujo público-alvo também são professores, podendo ser considerados como uma formação continuada. Diante disso, emerge a questão norteadora: como a formação continuada de professores de Biologia que atuam no entorno da região de Suape, oferecida pelo próprio CIPS, pode contribuir para a prática docente no que diz respeito à abordagem do enfrentamento de conflitos socioambientais? Traçamos como objetivo geral a compreensão de como essa formação continuada pode contribuir para atividades do professor direcionadas a essa abordagem. Procedemos uma entrevista semiestruturada com análise de possíveis materiais relacionados a suas práticas educativas ambientais. Para o tratamento dos dados procedemos a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin. Os resultados da pesquisa indicaram que apenas um dos sujeitos realizou atividades que se aproximam da abordagem dos conflitos socioambientais, porém não por influência da formação continuada. Percebemos que a formação não abordou conflitos socioambientais, distanciando-se da linha crítica da EA e assemelhando-se à EA ingênua.
A EXPERIMENTAÇÃO PELO OLHAR DE GRADUANDOS EM QUÍMICA: RELAÇÕES COM O CONTEXTO FORMATIVO
Authors: Receputi Caian Cremasco , Pereira Thaiara Magro , Vogel Marcos , Rezende Daisy De Brito
Published: August 2020

Esta comunicação apresenta um estudo com graduandos de dois cursos de Química, denominados curso de Química A e curso de Química B. Objetivou-se identificar as Representações Sociais (RS) desses dois grupos a respeito de “experimentação” e estabelecer relações entre essas representações e o contexto formativo desses graduandos. Para isso, utilizou-se a abordagem estrutural da Teoria das RS. Para a coleta de informações, que ocorreu com 117 sujeitos, empregou-se um questionário com 12 questões, das quais quatro referem-se à técnica de livre associação de palavras a partir do termo indutor “experimentação”, enquanto as demais são de categorização dos sujeitos de pesquisa. Para o tratamento das informações, e determinação das RS desses grupos, empregou-se a análise prototípica e a análise de similitude. Os resultados mostram RS diferentes para os dois grupos. Enquanto os termos do NC das RS acerca de “experimentação” para os graduandos do curso de Química A foram: laboratório, pesquisa e teste, para os licenciandos do curso de Química B foram laboratório, pesquisa e conhecimento. Identificou-se que ambos os grupos compreendem a “experimentação” como um aspecto inerente da Química como uma Ciência empírica. Porém, além disso, os graduandos em Química do curso de Química B concebem a experimentação como um processo no ensino da Química. Dois fatores podem ser indicados como contribuintes para a explicação dessa diferença: i) a estrutura curricular dos cursos; e ii) a participação em projetos de iniciação à docência.
UMA REFLEXÃO SOBRE O USO DE ANALOGIAS NO ENSINO DE CIÊNCIAS E O DESDOBRAMENTO MULTIMODAL DA REALIDADE: O EXEMPLO DE TÓPICOS DA TEORIA DA EVOLUÇÃO BIOLÓGICA
Authors: Seiffert Santos Saulo Cezar
Published: August 2020

As analogias são uma fonte heurística de pensamento para compreensão ou transição de ideias para a formação dos conceitos científicos, sendo muito utilizadas por cientistas e no cotidiano. Neste ensaio, buscamos fazer uma aproximação do conceito de analogia modal da teoria dooyeweerdiana com a Metodologia de Ensino com Analogia (MECA), no intuito de enriquecer as percepções ordinárias dos signos e a abertura cultural analítica científica. Realizamos uma pesquisa de sondagem sobre métodos de ensino com uso de analogias, para em seguida expormos conceitos da teoria cosmonômica de Dooyeweerd buscando fundamentar o conceito de analogia modal, abertura cultural e princípio Shalom. Por fim, evidenciamos o diálogo dessa concepção filosófica dooyeweerdiana com o uso da MECA no exemplo da analogia da Árvore da Vida de Charles Darwin. Nessa interação percebemos o enriquecimento (abertura cultural) de relações analógicas já conhecidas de desenvolvimento evolutivo, extinção e aparecimento de espécimes em função dos órgãos vegetais gomos, folhas e ramos; a construção de novas relações analógicas modais para outros órgãos e situações em que o vegetal comumente sobrevive, como a presença dos seres nos meios ambientais distintos (aquáticos, terrestres e aéreos) e reprodução de caráter teleológico em relação aos órgãos de raízes e frutos; e também a discursividade do equilíbrio para o contexto social e ambiental por meio do princípio Shalom.

Authors: Nikolic Jelena , Marinkovic Marija , Jovanovic Mladen , Mijatov Ivana , Bozic Teodora
Published: August 2020

Background/Aim. Upper blepharoplasty is one of the most often performed aesthetic operations and is indicated for periorbital rejuvenation or correction of some functional problems. The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcome of this procedure and to assess patients? satisfaction and possibilities of objective measurement of operative results. Methods. A two-year prospective observational study was conducted among female patients who had upper blepharoplasty done by the same surgeon. Data were collected from medical documentation, questionnaire, and objective measurements conducted via standardized digital photographs taken before and two months after surgery. Tarsal platform show (TPS) and brow fat span (BFS) were measured at three points (P1, P2, P3) before and two months after the surgery. A questionnaire conducted before surgery and two months after it included general complaints considering upper eyelids (visual field narrowing, fallen eyelids, the sensation of heavy eyelids, raising head backward in order to enhance vision, headache), patients? assessment of eyelid asymmetry and an additional questionnaire after surgery included questions for the surgeon and patients concerning satisfaction with treatment outcome. Results. This study involved 50 female patients aged be-tween 33 and 67 years (49.98 ? 8.6 years). There was a statistically significant difference in all points for TPS and BFS measurements before and after the operation. No significant asymmetries were noticed between eyes neither before nor after surgery. There was a statistically significant difference in operation success among 3 age categories in TPS-P1 (?2 = 13.089, df = 2, p = 0.001) and TPS-P2 (?2 = 8.386, df = 2, p = 0.015) with best results achieved in older patients (> 55 years). There was strong positive, statistically significant correlation between patient?s and surgeon?s satisfaction (r= 0.704, p = 0.002), as well as between patients? satisfaction and their age (r = 0.704, p = 0.002). Conclusion. Realistic expectations, adequate information about the surgery and possible complications, are essential to satisfied patients. Objective measurements correlate with patients? satisfaction and together with photographs can be a useful tool in communication with them.

Published: August 2020

Background/Aim. The cataract surgery in eyes with and without glaucoma results in the sustained intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction but it is still unknown which glaucomatous patients will achieve clinically significant reduction. The preoperative IOP and some ocular biometric parameters have been shown as potential predictors of the postoperative IOP reduction. The aim of our prospective intervention study was to evaluate that relationship in medically controlled patients with the pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) and in the nonglaucomatous patients. Methods. Thirty-one PXG patients (31 eyes) and 31 nonglaucomatous patients (31 eyes), all with clinically significant cataract, were enrolled. The preoperative IOP, anterior chamber depth (ACD), axial length (AL), lens thickness (LT), lens position (LP) [LP = ACD + 0.5 LT], relative lens position (RLP) [RLP = LP / AL] and the pressure-to-depth ratio (PD ratio) [PD ratio = preoperative IOP/preoperative ACD] were evaluated as potential predictors of the IOP change in the 6th postoperative month. Results. In the 6th postoperative month, in the PXG group, the IOP reduction was -3.23 ? 3.41 mmHg (-17.67 ? 16.86%) from the preoperative value of 16.27 ? 3.08 mmHg and in the control group, the reduction was -2.26 ? 1.71 mmHg (-15.06 ? 10.93%) from the preoperative value of 14.53 ? 2.04 mmHg. In the PXG group, the significant predictors of the absolute and the percentage IOP reduction were the preoperative IOP, AL, and PD ratio. In the same group, RLP was shown as a significant predictor of absolute change in the IOP in multi-variate analysis, and the percentage IOP change in both the univariate and the multivariate analyses. In the control group, the preoperative IOP and the PD ratio were the only significant parameters that could predict absolute change in the postoperative IOP. Conclusion. The cataract surgery leads to the IOP reduction both in the PXG and nonglaucomatous eye. Predictors monitored in this study are widely available and simply calculable parameters that can be potentially used in managing glaucoma.

HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 genes have significant and potentially causal associations with autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D). To follow up on the earlier analysis on high-risk HLA-DQ2.5 and DQ8.1, the current analysis uncovers seven residues (αa1, α157, α196, β9, β30, β57, and β70) that are resistant to T1D among subjects with DQ4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-resistant DQ haplotypes. These 7 residues form 13 common motifs: 6 motifs are significantly resistant, 6 motifs have modest or no associations (P values >0.05), and 1 motif has 7 copies observed among control subjects only. The motifs “DAAFYDG,” “DAAYHDG,” and “DAAYYDR” have significant resistance to T1D (odds ratios [ORs] 0.03, 0.25, and 0.18; P = 6.11 × 10−24, 3.54 × 10−15, and 1.03 × 10−21, respectively). Remarkably, a change of a single residue from the motif “DAAYHDG” to “DAAYHSG” (D to S at β57) alters the resistance potential, from resistant motif (OR 0.15; P = 3.54 × 10−15) to a neutral motif (P = 0.183), the change of which was significant (Fisher P value = 0.0065). The extended set of linked residues associated with T1D resistance and unique to each cluster of HLA-DQ haplotypes represents facets of all known features and functions of these molecules: antigenic peptide binding, peptide–MHC class II complex stability, β167-169 RGD loop, T-cell receptor binding, formation of homodimer of α-β heterodimers, and cholesterol binding in the cell membrane rafts. Identification of these residues is a novel understanding of resistant DQ associations with T1D. Our analyses endow potential molecular approaches to identify immunological mechanisms that control disease susceptibility or resistance to provide novel targets for immunotherapeutic strategies.
The RabGAPs TBC1D1 and TBC1D4 control uptake of long-chain fatty acids into skeletal muscle via fatty acid transporter SLC27A4/FATP4 Short title: RabGAPs in skeletal muscle lipid metabolism

The two
closely related RabGTPase-activating proteins (RabGAPs) TBC1D1 and TBC1D4 play
a crucial role in the regulation of GLUT4 translocation in response to insulin
and contraction in skeletal muscle. In mice, deficiency in one or both RabGAPs
leads to reduced insulin and contraction-stimulated glucose uptake, and to
elevated fatty acid uptake and oxidation in both glycolytic and oxidative
muscle fibers without altering mitochondrial copy number and the abundance of
OXPHOS proteins. Here we present evidence for a novel mechanism of skeletal
muscle lipid utilization involving the two RabGAPs and the fatty acid
transporter SLC27A4/FATP4. Both RabGAPs control the uptake of saturated and
unsaturated long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) into skeletal muscle and knockdown
of a subset of RabGAP substrates, Rab8,
Rab10 or Rab14, decreased LCFA
uptake into these cells. In skeletal muscle from Tbc1d1/Tbc1d4 knockout
animals, SLC27A4/FATP4 abundance was increased and depletion of SLC27A4/FATP4 but
not FAT/CD36 completely abrogated the enhanced fatty acid oxidation in RabGAP-deficient
skeletal muscle and cultivated C2C12 myotubes. Collectively, our data
demonstrate that RabGAP-mediated control of skeletal muscle lipid metabolism
converges with glucose metabolism at the level of downstream RabGTPases and
involves regulated transport of LCFAs via SLC27A4/FATP4.
Using a New 3D-Printing Method to Investigate Rubber Friction Laws on Different Scales

Published: August 2020

Rubber friction is a complex phenomenon that is composed of different contributions. Because it always consists of a friction pairing, the road surface topology has a main impact on the adhesive and sliding characteristics in the rubber-road interaction. New manufacturing processes offer the means to develop specific road surfaces. By using a modified three-dimensional (3D) printing method based on selective laser melting with stainless steel, it is possible to create any desired surface up to a resolution of 20 μm. In this work, several metallic surfaces are built for two separate purposes. First, the rubber-road interaction is analyzed and compared for metal and asphalt. Second, theoretical friction laws are investigated with synthetic surfaces. Toward this aim, the friction coefficients are measured in both dry and wet conditions. A multiscale approach for friction properties on different length scales is implemented to accumulate the micro and mesoscopic friction into a macroscopic friction coefficient. On each length scale, a homogenization procedure generates the friction features as a function of slip velocity and contact pressure for the next coarser scale. Within the multiscale approach, adhesion implemented as nonlinear traction separation law is assumed to act only on microscopic length scales. By using the finite element method, the sensitivity of the influencing factors, such as macroscopic slip and load conditions, is investigated. The friction loss from dry to wet conditions cannot be explained by loss of adhesion alone. Hysteresis has to be affected as well. A possible hypothesis for this is the trapped water pools in the texture. The road surface is effectively smoothed and thus hysteresis reduced. To verify this hypothesis, a hysteretic friction model is calibrated to dry measurements. The cavities in the modeled texture are then filled incrementally to simulate various amounts of trapped water.

Published: August 2020

Este trabajo presenta un proyecto de intervención que desarrollaron alumnos de cuarto grado de la licenciatura en Intervención Educativa de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional 141. El objetivo del proyecto fue diseñar e implementar un taller que capacite a las y los adolescentes de tercer grado de la Escuela Secundaria Sor Juana Inés sobre las causas y consecuencias del embarazo a temprana edad, con la finalidad de crear un entorno que favorezca las decisiones libres, responsables e informadas sobre el ejercicio de su sexualidad. Metodológicamente, en primer lugar, se realizó un diagnóstico mediante encuesta para determinar los conocimientos previos de los alumnos. Así, más tarde, el taller contempló los temas propuestos por el alumnado y las omisiones del plan de estudios en materia de sexualidad. Las actividades dentro del taller incluyeron videos, exposiciones y juegos vivenciales que condujeran a la reflexión y tuvo una duración aproximada de tres horas. Los resultados demostraron la necesidad de ejecutar este tipo de proyectos de intervención, ya que la información que poseen los adolescentes es incompleta e inadecuada. Es fundamental que conozcan las formas de prevención para que tomen mejores decisiones y ejerzan una sexualidad de forma responsable. También es importante reconocer que este tipo de proyectos en contextos reales promueven el uso de los conocimientos y habilidades adquiridos por los estudiantes a lo largo de su trayecto educativo.

Published: August 2020

There is an important relationship between the quality of undergraduate education and competitiveness in the global economy, especially for emerging economies. Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is one of the important methodologies in Total Quality Management (TQM) to translate customer requirements into technical specifications. The purpose of this study is to apply Third Generation Western QFD methodology together with Kano model to categorize and prioritize the needs of customers to increase a graduate-level course quality in higher education. To this end, the Voice of the Customer was identified through the Kano technique that enables categorization and prioritization of student requirements. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first empirical study in the literature that integrates the aforementioned methodologies in the field of higher education. With this integration, a focused quality house was generated which includes only prominent student and technical requirements. Accordingly, the prominent student requirements, which are classified as one-dimensional needs, are found to be the ones that are mostly lecturer-oriented attributes, such as the lecturer's theoretical and industrial knowledge. The interaction of the course with the industry, such as technical trips and invited speakers, which are called as attractive needs, are found to increase student satisfaction by creating delight. The prominent technical requirements are found to be budget/funds, number of students enrolled, lecturer workload, industry trip, good communication/empathy, lecturer qualifications, and competency in teaching. The combined framework may help educational decision-makers to identify and satisfy the main student requirements to enhance the quality of educational service processes.

At present, as the growth of SMEs continues to increase and with the presence of marketplace platforms become one of the causes of the decline in product sales over the last three years, namely in the years 2017, 2018 and 2019.

This research was conducted to develop the most suitable strategy based on existing internal and external factors. The results of internal factors analysis demonstrate the strength of reputation and good relationship and weakness in the form of a product type that is seasonal and easily emulated. The results of external factors analysis show the opportunity of online sales and future integration and threats in the form of potential newcomers and higher competencies. Analysis results are used to formulate strategies using SWOT Analysis, TOWS Matrix and Porter's Generic Strategy.

The proposed strategy is the Cost Leadership Strategy and Forward Integration as a strategy used to improve and develop existing business strategies and marketing strategies. These strategies are done by developing limited resources, implementing effective value chain activities and conducting product marketing directly to end consumers through online and offline sales.

Strategy will valuable when it is used as a managerial process for developing and sustaining the integrations between organizational goal, organizational resources, and the continuously changing market opportunity with an objective to shape and adjust organizational effort and products, so an organization can reach competitive advantage. This paper is written to contrast the strategy formulation process and the functions of strategy embedded in the formulation process in textbook theoretical side and in practical side in business organizations in Indonesia. This study uses a questionnaire to see respondents' responses. Majority of the 82 organizations participating in this study believe that they use the same strategy formulation process as the theory suggested and they also believe that they are utilizing the strategic functions embedded in the formulation process. The results of this study are expected to be able to give contribution to the business organizations when they are formulating their strategy, effort that they have to invest, and advantages that they can utilize by having a specific strategy formulation process.  The well crafted and adjusted strategy to changes of the environment and internal factors will enable organizations more focus in reaching their long-term goal and adapting to uncontrollable changes.
SARS-COV-2 Transmission in México´s Dental Practice: Measures, Clinical Implications and Management
Authors: Palma José R. , Palma Pedro J. , Olivares Patricia N. , Macías Olivia
Published: August 2020

The SARS-COV2 outbreak began as a zoonotic transmission, with Chinese horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus sinicus) and pangolins being the most likely origin of the infection. Once the  patient has been infected, the virus is significantly present in the nasopharyngeal and salivary secretions.  The professionals who are most directly exposed to the risk of contagion are dentists since the evolutionary process of virus infection occurs due to the inhalation of particles in the dental environment, the formation of aerosols during practice, and what is more important, in the expectorations emitted by the patients. Therefore, it is necessary to act diligently in professional practice, as well as take the necessary preventive measures to avoid the spread of the infection. The appearance of this new disease forces us to modify all the sanitary measures that have been taken concerning dental care by the professional, as well as auxiliary personnel and the protection of patients, requiring strict sanitary control by the authorities of health. In the university environment, the changes that must be made to allow an open channel of communication between students, teaching, administrative and hygiene personnel must continue to prevent this and future diseases.  The aim of this article is to propose a protocol for dental clinical care, considering the real conditions and needs that prevail in our practice, highlighting the risk and preventive measures that the dental professional must consider, as well as the management of patients.

Achieving the desired results and safety for any engineering project requires regularly review and check the technical specifications and accuracy of the geodetic instruments. Standard calibration models and procedures are exist for all geodetic instruments but it must be developed and modified to meet the standard for advanced precise digital level especially for deformation measurements. Digital levels are widely used for setting out engineering structures and monitoring the structural deformation because of their accuracy, in addition to the possibility of automatically collecting and storing data, which save time and effort required for observations. When performing measurements for an industrial building or construction site, due to the operation of various mechanisms and equipment, vibration occurs on the surface of the earth or on the concrete base, on which a tripod with a digital level is mounted. Under these conditions, the frequency and amplitude of the oscillations has a great effect on the observations of modern digital geodetic instruments. This paper investigates the accuracy of precise digital level observations (height differences and distances) for two cases which are: observations in laboratory and observations in the field (open area - outdoors observations with sun light and different weather condition than laboratory). The paper presents also two new suggested observations techniques for determining the collimation error (angle (θ)) of precise levels depending on least square theory which in turn provide a significant improvement of the suggested methods for determining the characteristic of digital levels. The research presents also experimentally the results of investigating the effect of (level – tripod) vibration on the digital level observations accuracy and suggest a practical technique to reduce the influence of the tripod-level vibration system on the resulted observations.

Students and orphans from Brazilian and Portuguese Vincentian institutions suffered outbreaks of a unknown disease in the 19th century, today called Beriberi. Primary cause was malnutrition, but part of the students did not present Beriberi. Our aim was investigate the effect of malnutrition, as well as secondary factors (consumption of infusions, fasting and depression) in the etiology of Beriberi. Ingestion of thiamine (vitamin B1) in both Caraça school and Asylum D’Ajuda was 815 µg dia-1 and 844 µg dia-1, respectively. Intake of vitamin B1 was of 24 % to 46 % lower than that recommended by RDA. Consumption of infusions from Luxemburghia polyandra (congonha) and Camellia sinensis (black tea) rich in anti-thiamine polyphenols was responsible for degradation of above 25 % of vitamin B1. Prolonged religious fasting decreases food ingestion and it could aggravate hypovitaminosis. The harsh way of life in the Vincentian institutions may contribute to depression emergence in susceptible students going to causing food inappetence. In conclusion, malnutrition associated with consumption of infusion, religious fasting and depression could have triggered the Beriberi in part of the student body of both Caraça school and Asylum D'Ajuda.

Place and Role of Education in Modern Society
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Grechikhin Vladimir Grigoryevich
Published: August 2020

This paper discusses the role of education in the modern world and the problems facing higher education today. The study presents the analysis of statistical data such as the number of higher education institutions in the world and in Russia, the ranking of universities, the volume of state financing of higher education, etc. It is noted that the system of higher education, which has existed without major changes for a long time, is now somewhat outdated and needs to be reviewed both in Russia and around the world. The author concluded that with an increase in the number of higher education institutions and their graduates, the level of Russian education did not increase, but significantly decreased compared to the Soviet one. It is emphasized that in the modern world, the main value of the state is people and their knowledge.

The analysis of third-generation Federal State Educational Standards convinces us that such an important area of activity for graduates of technical universities as preparation for international cooperation has not been adequately reflected in the goals of higher education formulated in the terms of competences. To overcome this shortcoming, the designing of methodical support (DMS) of disciplines related to the teaching of foreign languages for students of all specialties and all levels of education was implemented in order to prepare them for international cooperation. The content of the designing is studied, the author's definition is proposed, the structure and design algorithm are developed. In the process of studying the specifics of international cooperation as a pedagogical category, methodological, cultural and communicative components of this concept are described. The identification of the most significant areas of international cooperation for graduates of technical universities has become the fundamental element in the designing of methodical support. The article describes the designing content in accordance with the developed structure. The obtained results are analyzed and the ways to improve methodical support in order to form students' universal competences are suggested.

The issue of patriotic education of school students is relevant in modern Russia since nowadays the society rethinks the leading value orientations, as well as due to the current crisis of the family institution and the presence of negative manifestations of students in the public life of the country (absence of a civil position, socially appropriate behaviour, participation in socially disapproved activities and online communities). At the moment the features of patriotic education in various types of educational organizations are understudied. The present research provides the experience of studying the features of patriotic education of primary school students of comprehensive schools and orthodox gymnasiums. It is concluded that primary school students of orthodox gymnasiums have a higher level of patriotic education (both boys and girls) compared to comprehensive school students.

The paper reveals the essence of project management as one of the important competencies of civil and municipal servants. The projects as a management subject are characterized by: impossibility of achieving results during current activities, innovation, sufficient complexity of implementation, high level of risks, limited resources, obtaining an additional effect. The management of regional and municipal projects is one of the types of goal-oriented management, along with program-oriented and strategic. Their implementation in a single link “project – program – strategy” is an important “component” of the Belgorod experience of project management, which has received recognition at the federal level. The results of a sociological survey are presented, which indicate not only the achievements in managing regional and municipal projects (the number of projects, the number of projects involved in their development and implementation), but also the unresolved problems associated with the implementation of project activities in the job regulations for state and municipal servants, tendencies of its shift to daily (functional) activities, insufficient staff awareness of project tasks and the activities ensuring their fulfillment, insufficient resource provision. Project management is most corresponding with a democratic leadership style. The main requirements for project managers are professionalism, management experience, broad education, and organizational skills.
The Problem of Criminal Penalties for Certain Age Groups of Youth
Authors:   North Caucasus Federal University, Dolgopolov Kirill Andreyevich
Published: August 2020

The study deals with the problems that arise as a result of criminal penalties imposition to representatives of young people who are eighteen years old. These young people due to their age lose the status of a minor, legally becoming adults, but still maintaining social, psychological, behavioral, and physiological characteristics of teenagers. At the same time, the procedure of assigning and executing criminal penalties for them is radically tightening, which increases the risk of their involvement in the relations that develop between people in places of detention and lead to deep desocialization. The author concludes that it is necessary to form a certain procedure for the imposition of criminal penalties for people of this age group and gives some recommendations.

Published: August 2020

The paper discusses the features of self-identification of students of three universities in relation to the Arctic. The purpose of this study is to identify students' Arctic identity, to define the concept of the Arctic in the world. The comparative results of a questionnaire survey of students of the North-Eastern Federal University (Yakutsk), Northern (Arctic) Federal University (Arkhangelsk) and the Murmansk Arctic State University (Murmansk) conducted in 2017-2019 are analyzed. Arctic identity is considered as a social phenomenon. Preliminary results of the study show that the Arctic identity of university students in the Arctic is not formed, or partially formed. Students identify as northerners rather than residents of arctic territories. The Arctic is identified with the north by half of the respondents; the answer options chosen by the students of NEFU differed from the choice of students at MASU and NArFU. The survey results can be used to create conditions for the formation of the territorial identity of the youth of the Arctic.
