Published: December 2020

In contrast of early nineteen century when the school prohibition for indigenous people was executed, the early century of twenty started up the educational chance. Though the education permitted only for the children of priyayi, rich men and plutocrat, also Dutch government functionary. The queen Wilhelmina‟s policy that politically determinates the discretion for the need of education came along with the time when Islamic education institution gradually founded and dispersed in Java and Sumatera. As it was influenced by colonial government stability, this article covers the education project of Dutch colonial government and institutional Islamic education, includes political Islamic education policy with its intention.

Authors: YÜCEL Ceyhan
Published: December 2020

20. yüzyıl tüm Dünya’da her açıdan geniş çaplı ve hızlı değişimlere sahne olmuştur. Sanayi Devrimi sonrasında bilim ve teknoloji alanında yaşanan gelişmeler ve bunların sosyal ve mekânsal sonuçları, tüm dünyada üretim ve tüketim ilişkilerini yeniden şekillendirmiştir. Kentler bu değişimlerin izlerinin en açık göründüğü yerler olmuştur. Sanayileşmeye bağlı olarak nüfus hızla artmış, kent sayısı ve kentsel alan büyümüş, kentlerde toplumsal katmanlaşma ve işbölümü yeniden oluşmuştur. Bu süreçte kentsel alanda ekonomik ilişkiler yeniden kurulurken, kentsel mekânın planlanması ve düzenlenmesi gibi konular da yüzyılın başından sonuna kadar farklı ölçek, teknik ve içerikte ele alınmıştır. Bu gelişmeler, doğrudan ya da dolaylı Türkiye’de de etkilerini ve sonuçlarını göstermiş; Dünya’daki ekonomik politikalar ve toplumsal niteliklerde görülen değişim Türkiye kentleşmesini etkilemiştir.Bu çalışma, 21. yüzyılın ilk çeyreğini tamamlamak üzere olduğumuz dönemde, geride bıraktığımız yüzyılda Dünya’da ve Türkiye’de ortaya çıkan kentleşme dinamiklerinin bütüncül bir bakışla derlenmesini amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada önce Sanayi Devrimi sonrasında yaşanan gelişmeler ve bunların kentler ve kentleşme süreci üzerindeki sonuçlarına değinilecek, sonrasında Türkiye’deki 20. yüzyılda yaşanan kentleşme süreci Türkiye’nin kendine özgü dinamikleri ile birlikte özetlenecektir. Makalede, Dünya’da ve Türkiye’deki kentleşme dinamiklerinin kentsel politika ve planlama yaklaşımları üzerinde yarattığı dönüşüm 20. yüzyıl gelişme evreleri içinde özetlenecektir.
Eosinophilic enteritis – case report of a rare manifestation and review of updates

Published: December 2020

Eosinophilic enteritis is one of the eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders characterised by various clinical symptoms. Histopathologic proof of dense eosinophilic infiltration is the cornerstone for the diagnosis. There is no consensus on how dense the infiltration should be, and cut-off values of the eosinophilic count in HPF have not been defined yet. Therapy for eosinophilic enteritis is based on an elimination diet and corticosteroid treatment. Herein the authors report a case of 14-year-old boy who suffered from acute abdominal pain. Computer tomography of the abdomen revealed a thickening of the duodenal wall mimicking a tumour, which seemed to infiltrate the gallbladder and omentum. Histopathological examination of samples taken during laparoscopy showed eosinophilic infiltration and sclerotic changes of the gallbladder and duodenum. Follow-up endoscopy proved extensive eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract: eosinophilic esophagitis, duodenal ulcer with dense eosinophilic presence and eosinophilic proctitis. The patient recovered after dietary restrictions and prednisone.

Impact of Milk and Milk Product of Tamil Nadu
Authors: Revathi Prof. R. , Kannan Dr. A. Santhana
Published: December 2020

Sampling and analysis occur along the milk processing train: from collection at farm level, to intake at the diary plant, the processing steps, and the end products. Milk has a short shelf life; however, products such as milk powders have allowed a global industry to be developed. Quality control tests are vital to support activities for hygiene and food standards to meet regulatory and customer demands. Multiples of chemical and microbiological contamination tests are undertaken. Hazard analysis testing strategies are necessary, but some tests may be redundant; it is therefore vital to identify product optimization quality control strategies. The time taken to undergo testing and turnaround time are rarely measured. The dairy industry is a traditional industry with a low margin commodity. Industry 4.0 vision for dairy manufacturing is to introduce the aspects of operational excellence and implementation of information and communications technologies. The dairy industries’ reply to Industry 4.0 is represented predominantly by proactive maintenance and optimization of production and logistical chains, such as robotic milking machines and processing and packaging line automation reinforced by sensors for rapid chemical and microbial analysis with improved and real-time data management. This chapter reviews the processing trains with suggestions for improved optimization.

Perspectives on xenophobia during epidemics and implications for emergency management
Authors: Chang, BS Crystal , Salerno, MSc Anthony , Hsu, MD, MPH Edbert B.
Published: December 2020

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that traces its earliest known cases to the Hubei region of China in late 2019. As the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the globe wreaking unprecedented disruption, increasing levels of xenophobia and racial discrimination have been documented against those of Asian descent. We investigate the historical connections between disease and rise of xenophobia as described in the peer-reviewed literature addressing prior epidemics, such as Ebola and the Hong Kong Flu, in conjunction with concurrent cases of prejudice toward certain groups of people. Attempts to better understand why such attitudes emerge are examined in the context of xenophobic actions during pandemics. Prevailing views suggest that xenophobia ultimately leads to increased stigmatization of those afflicted by disease, which in turn leads to decreased trust in the medical system, resulting in a negative feedback loop. Accurate disseminated information and improved public education on sources and modes of transmission of infectious diseases are essential to check xenophobic tendencies, reduce negative effects and foster greater cooperation.

Published: December 2020

The Geography of the Romanian Novel (1901-1932): Spaces from Abroad This article charts the main cities mentioned in the Romanian novel published between 1901 and 1932 based on the corpus of novels created by the research project The Digital Museum of the Romanian Novel 1901-1932 (around 370 digitized novels). The main discoveries that our distant reading of the geography in these novels revealed are that the planet is covered in the Romanian novel during the period in genre fiction (that has mentions of cities from Africa, Asia and South America), not in modernist highbrow literature, and that the dominance of Paris and Rome as spaces where the action takes place is atomized during this period by smaller cities in France and Italy. The article also describes the relation between social mobility and geographical coverage in the epoch. Keywords: Romanian literature, distant reading, geocriticism, literary geography, planetarity.

Emissions relationships in western forest fire plumes – Part 1: Reducing the effect of mixing errors on emission factors
Authors: Chatfield Robert B. , Andreae Meinrat O. ,   ARCTAS Science Team,   SEAC4RS Science Team
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Studies of emission factors from biomass burning using
aircraft data complement the results of lab studies and extend them to
conditions of immense hot conflagrations. A new theoretical development of
plume theory for multiple tracers is developed after examining aircraft
samples. We illustrate and discuss emissions relationships for 422 individual
samples from many forest fire plumes in the Western USA. Samples are from
two NASA investigations: ARCTAS (Arctic Research of the Composition of the
Troposphere from Aircraft and Satellites) and SEAC4RS (Studies of Emissions
and Atmospheric Composition, Clouds and Climate Coupling by Regional
Surveys). This work provides sample-by-sample enhancement ratios (EnRs) for
23 gases and particulate properties. Many EnRs provide candidates for
emission ratios (ERs, corresponding to the EnR at the source) when the
origin and degree of transformation is understood. From these, emission
factors (EFs) can be estimated, provided the fuel dry mass consumed is known
or can be estimated using the carbon mass budget approach. This analysis
requires understanding the interplay of mixing of the plume with surrounding
air. Some initial examples emphasize that measured Ctot=CO2+CO in a fire plume does not necessarily describe the emissions of the
total carbon liberated in the flames, Cburn. Rather, it represents
Ctot=Cburn+Cbkgd, which includes possibly varying
background concentrations for entrained air. Consequently, we present a
simple theoretical description for plume entrainment for multiple tracers
from the flame tops to hundreds of kilometers downwind and illustrate some intrinsic
linear behaviors. The analysis suggests a mixed-effects regression emission
technique (MERET), which can eliminate occasional strong biases associated
with the commonly used normalized excess mixing ratio (NEMR) method. MERET
splits Ctot to reveal Cburn by exploiting the fact that Cburn
and all tracers respond linearly to dilution, while each tracer has
consistent EnR behavior (slope of tracer concentration with respect to
Cburn). The two effects are separable. Two or three or preferably more
emission indicators are required as a minimum; here we used eight. In
summary, MERET allows a fine spatial resolution (EnRs for individual
observations) and comparison of similar plumes that are distant in time and space.
Alkene ratios provide us with an approximate photochemical timescale. This
allows discrimination and definition, by fire situation, of ERs, allowing us
to estimate emission factors.
Bioavailable soil and rock strontium isotope data from Israel
Authors: Moffat Ian , Rudd Rachel , Willmes Malte , Mortimer Graham , Kinsley Les , McMorrow Linda , Armstrong Richard , Aubert Maxime , Grün Rainer
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Strontium isotope ratios (87Sr ∕ 86Sr) of
biogenic material such as bones and teeth reflect the local sources of
strontium ingested as food and drink during their formation. This has led to
the use of strontium isotope ratios as a geochemical tracer in a wide range
of fields including archaeology, ecology, food studies and forensic
sciences. In order to utilise strontium as a geochemical tracer, baseline
data of bioavailable 87Sr ∕ 86Sr in the region of interest are required, and a growing number of studies have developed reference maps for
this purpose in various geographic regions, and over varying scales. This
study presents a new data set of bioavailable strontium isotope ratios from
rock and soil samples across Israel, as well as from sediment layers from
seven key archaeological sites. This data set may be viewed and accessed
both in an Open Science Framework repository (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/XKJ5Y, Moffat et al., 2020) or via the IRHUM (Isotopic Reconstruction of Human
Migration) database.

Abstract. Monitoring the conversion of native vegetation has challenged Brazilian government and scientists since the 1980s. In the case of the Amazonian forests, the Amazon Gross Deforestation Monitoring Project - PRODES has developed an effective methodology that provides consistent annual data on deforestation areas on a scale of 1:250,000, since 1988. In this article, we present some aspects of the evolution of this methodology, the key processes to produce accurate deforestation maps during the last 30 years and the new challenges that the Project would face. A central lesson is that no computational technique has, to date, been able to achieve the quality of deforestation maps produced by visual interpretation of satellite images and manual mapping.

Management research maintains business performance of local products during the pandemic, requiring organizations to act effectively and efficiently in managing resources based on relevant knowledge. Efforts are needed to sustain local product business, maintain the key to organizational success based on knowledge sharing and innovation in improving business performance so that local products remain sustainable. This research was analyzed quantitatively using SEM-AMOS statistical tools, in 300 local product business actors in Central Kalimantan and Bali. The proactive antecedents of market orientation were obtained significantly positive encouraging mediation role of knowledge sharing by 51% and innovation by 63% on business performance. Activities that are managed so that superior products become management activities with significant positive Planning, Organizing, Actuatingand Controlling (POAC) carried out by mediating positive impacts to maintain local product business. The novelty of this research is a conceptual model based on Knowledge Based View (KBV) to increase local product business in two provinces affected by Covid-19. The implication of this research is to encourage business actors to synergize with market orientation into relevant information to identify changes and needs, as well as to encourage knowledge sharing and innovation in improving business performance of local products that are in accordance with consumer needs.
Assessing the influence of total quality management practices on innovation in Jordanian manufacturing organizations
Authors: Alshourah Sultan
Published: December 2020

The purpose of this study is to assess the influence of total quality management (TQM) dimensions on the product and process innovation perspectives of Jordanian manufacturing organizations. In this quantitative study; a questionnaire was sent to 249 randomly selected ISO 9001:2000 certified firms in different manufacturing industries in Jordan and we obtained 123 usable questionnaires. After confirming the validity and reliability of the latent variables with confirmatory and exploratory factor analyses, we examined the model and hypotheses. This search outcome confirmed the significant and positive relationship between TQM dimensions overall and product and process innovation perspectives. However, the supplier’s management failed to show a significant relationship with product and process innovation perspectives. Meaningful implications are made that building extensive and effective TQM dimensions and product and process innovation in manufacturing organizations is crucial to face with high competition and innovation in Jordan manufacturing organizations sector.

In modern times, the trends in students’ choice of specialization in the bachelor’s degree are changing rapidly. Therefore, this research study attempts to build a conceptual framework to uncover the relationship between students’ choice of specialization in Human Resources Management (HRM) and the factors that influence students’ decision making when selecting the area of specialization. This concept paper examines the independent variables (influential factors) which impact the selection of HRM as an area of specialization. The conceptualization supports the theoretical framework created to identify the personal factors, academic factors and social factors which lead to the selection of the area of specialization. The primary importance of this paper is that the conceptual framework can be used in other countries for academic purposes.
Acuerdos de riesgo compartido para medicamentos de alto costo en Chile
Authors: Poblete Sergio
Published: December 2020

El objetivo de este artículo es caracterizar y analizar los acuerdos de riesgo compartido que la industria farmacéutica propuso para la inclusión de medicamentos en el cuarto decreto del Sistema de Protección Financiera para Diagnósticos y Tratamientos de Alto Costo de Chile (Ley Ricarte Soto). Mediante una revisión de la literatura internacional sobre la materia, se elaboró una taxonomía de los acuerdos de riesgo compartido, identificando las ventajas y desventajas de cada tipo desde la perspectiva de las políticas públicas en salud. Entre los resultados de esta investigación destaca que la mayor parte de las ofertas recibidas consideró acuerdos del tipo financiero, siendo los más frecuentes los descuentos de precios, y, en menor medida, las bonificaciones y los descuentos por adquisición de un portafolio de productos de un mismo proveedor. Cabe mencionar que el caso analizado constituye una de las primeras experiencias formales de solicitud de este tipo de instrumentos en el sector público de salud chileno. Sin embargo, el diseño e implementación real de estos contratos requiere un rol más proactivo del comprador público, lo cual demanda la generación de competencias e infraestructura que permitan la medición del desempeño de las tecnologías sanitarias en la práctica.
An Early Warning Signal (EWS) Model for Predicting Financial Crisis in Emerging African Economies
Authors: Ilesanmi Kehinde Damilola , Tewari Devi Datt
Published: December 2020

The devastating effects of the global financial crisis (GFC) have led to a renewed, global interest in the development of an early warning signal (EWS) model. The purpose of the EWS model is to alert policymakers and other stakeholders to the possibility of the occurrence of a crisis. This study estimates a EWS model for predicting the financial crisis in four emerging African economies using a multinomial logit model and a data set covering the period of January 1980 to December 2017. The result of the study suggests that emerging African economies are more likely to face financial crisis as debts continue to rise without a corresponding capacity to withstand capital flow reversal as well as excessive foreign exchange risk due to currency exposure. The result further indicates that rising debt exposure raises the likelihood of the economies remaining in a state of crisis. This result confirms the significance of a financial stability framework that addresses the issues confronting Africa’s emerging economies such as rising debt profile, liquidity and currency risk exposure.

Published: December 2020

The paper deals with the composition and functions of the financial and credit infrastructure of agricultural enterprises, the necessity of development of its institutes is substantiated. The development of financial and credit infrastructure is a vital part of any developed agricultural sector. Due to the length of the production cycle, the seasonality of production and the associated nature of the formation of costs and stocks, agricultural enterprises lack sources for continuous financing. The use of borrowed capital allows you to significantly expand the volume of economic activities of the enterprise, ensure a more efficient use of its own funds, and accelerate the renewal of fixed assets. In order to attract resources and, consequently, to invest in the agricultural sector, it is extremely important to strengthen both agriculture and the financial sector. This requires a coherent strategy with consistent regulation and policies that meet the needs of the sectors and correspond to the real capabilities of all actors in both sectors. The paper proposes a methodology for calculating the integral indicator of the efficiency of participation of all economic entities and financial and credit infrastructure of agricultural enterprises.
Central Bank Communication and Policy Interest Rate
Authors: Kuncoro Haryo
Published: December 2020

Central bank communications play an important role in the monetary policy. In the inflation-targeting frameworks, central bank communications might guide public to shape inflation expectations and then determine actual inflation rates through which the policy interest rates policy would manage them. This paper studied the impact and central bank monetary policy communications on the policy interest rate. Unlike other studies, this paper uses two stages. First, we estimate the impact of central bank communication on the inflation expectation gap. Second, we use the estimated value of inflation expectation gap to predict the policy interest rate. The study found evidence that economic agents analyse the Governor Board of Central Bank of Indonesia meeting decisions every month to shape their inflation expectation. Therefore, the difference between inflation expectation and actual inflation tends to narrow. The inflation expectation gap affects the policy interest rates in Indonesia. In other words, the policy interest rates can control the inflation rate and anchor expectations as required by the inflation-targeting framework.
Decentralization of Political Design in China
Authors: Benney Jonathan
Published: December 2020

Political posters, banners, and similar objects are extremely common in China. This article uses political design from contemporary China, particularly emphasizing the government's Chinese Dream campaign, to analyze what at first appears to be a paradox. The subjects of the various
campaigns and the language they use are mandated by the central government and promoted through central and local publicity departments. However, the graphic aspects of these campaigns, such as the choice of colours, images, layout, and typeface, are much less strictly controlled, and are
decided by local governments or authorities. This makes political design in China decentralized. Decentralized design is inconsistent with the principles of global marketing and with the PRC's reliance on set forms of political discourse, both of which rely on the assumption that uniformity
will lead to more effective communication of messages and persuasion of the public. Evidence from local design campaigns indeed shows that Chinese political posters are often designed hastily and without expertise, resulting in strange and unpersuasive images. Despite this, the article shows
that decentralized design is not paradoxical. This is largely because the Chinese party-state uses propaganda as a method of "signalling" its overall power, more than as a tool of indoctrination or persuasion about particular topics. The central government's reliance on incentives and metrics
to regulate local authorities means that the production of propaganda is also a way in which local governments can signal their loyalty to the Centre.
Quality of Life and Spirituality in Medical Students

Published: December 2020

Quality of life is an eminently human condition that informs the perception of how the individual is in his life values, while spirituality and religiosity represent the connection with the sacred, the transcendental practices in the search for existential causes. Bringing these concepts to the academic environment can help in promoting health and better training for future medical professionals. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the relationship between quality of life and spirituality of medical students at a private university in the state of Paraná, Brazil. One hundred eighty-nine medical students answered three questionnaires (socio-demographic, WHOQOL-bref on quality of life, and DUREL spirituality) during the first and last year of graduation. In this study, we found that the general quality of life of medical students, according to the WHOQOL-bref scale, is regular (3.78), and there was no statistically significant difference in the general quality of life between the first and the last year of medical school. (p = 0.156). The social and environmental domains leveraged the scores more than the physical and psychological domains in both groups. On the Durel scale, intrinsic religiosity (IR) stood out more than organized (OR) and non-organized (NOR) religiosity, with statistically significant differences (p = 0.018), which may imply that these students prefer to seek more in themselves, a harmony of life between their beliefs and their particular needs, internalizing existential and spiritual reflexes that are reflected in their behaviors and decisions.
Influence of Wear and Tool Geometry on the Chatter, Cutting Force, and Surface Integrity of TB6 Titanium Alloy with Solid Carbide Cutters of Different Geometry
Authors: Liu Jianyong , Sun Jianfei , Zaman Uzair  Khaleeq uz , Chen Wuyi
Published: December 2020

In this paper, vibration-free milling cutters (variable helix (VH) and variable pitch (VP) end mills) and standard (SD) end mills are used to machine TB6 (Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al) titanium alloy in order to study the influence of wear and geometric structure parameters of milling cutters on chatter, cutting force and surface integrity of machined surfaces. The results of the tests show that the wear of milling cutters has a significant influence on the chatter, cutting force, roughness, residual stress, and microhardness. Geometric structure parameters of milling cutters also have a clear impact on both chatter and cutting force. Also, chatter and cutting force have significant effects on roughness and residual stress, which are in turn affected by tool geometric structure parameters, separately.

Published: December 2020

The present paper focuses on the manufacturing of micro-groove heat pipes on hydrostatic thrust bearings of heavy machinery. Special multitooth tools were designed for plough-extrusion forming heat pipes on flat copper. Experimental results were conducted to determine whether the plough-extrusion forming could achieve better performance than traditional wire electrical discharge. Furthermore, the processing using multi-tooth tool with 10 mm length, 55 tooth number, 0.25 mm tooth depth and 0.22 tooth top width was found to achieve the best performance among the six optional tools. The 50 mm/min forming speed was determined to acquire the best surface quality of the microgroove structure. Through heat transfer testing, the theoretical model for a micro-groove heat pipe made by plough-extrusion forming was also verified.
Vegetarian and vegan rights in Europe: chickening out or egging them on?
Authors: O'Sullivan García Maureen
Published: December 2020

The recognition of vegetarianism as a protected belief under equality legislation in the UK was denied by an employment tribunal judge in 2019. The judge in question treated vegetarianism as if it were frivolous and whimsical and compared it negatively with veganism. The following year he recognised veganism as a protected belief, which diverges from the norm of protecting both of these beliefs under the same legislative provisions. This article examines a selection of European cases starting in Ireland in the late nineteenth century in which vegetarianism was familiar, respected by eminent courts and protected without much fuss. The purpose is to demonstrate that the tribunal judge erred and that the pending appeal should be successful, failing which legislative intervention may be necessary.

La batalla entre el bien y el mal en la "Historia general y natural de Las Indias" de Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo
Authors: Guillamón Pérez Ana María
Published: December 2020

Para Oviedo, América fue la Tierra Prometida, el Jardín edénico, pero también el Imperio del Demonio. Su Historia General y Natural de las Indias, tan omniabarcadora, minuciosa, y tan moral, representó el choque de estos dos escenarios; la pugna librada en el Nuevo Mundo entre las fuerzas del Bien y el Mal, ambas protagónicas en su intransigente crónica. Frente a una exultante naturaleza -símbolo de inocencia, abundancia y divinidad-, hambre, plagas, enfermedades, adversidades naturales, todos los pecados capitales e innumerables fuerzas diabólicas danzaron por su Historia, cual desfile apocalíptico, acongojando al lector. A partir del Libro XXIX, sobre las crueldades de Pedrarias y sus esbirros, y denominado «infernal»; y del desalentador Libro L de «Infortunios y naufragios», este artículo pone su foco en los padecimientos de conquistados y conquistadores, en el modo en que Oviedo enjuició a estos actantes y en cómo narró sus trágicos avatares en tierras indianas.
Formas de expresión de la subjetividad en los cronistas religiosos de Indias
Authors: Villar Piñeiro José Luis
Published: December 2020

Las crónicas de Indias son en su origen documentos expositivos que, encargados por las autoridades civiles o religiosas, transmiten información sensible y estratégica. Pero, en la pluma de frailes y soldados que vivieron personalmente lo contado, se convierten en textos parciales y subjetivos con otros objetivos más allá de los informativos.En este trabajo analizamos los tonos discursivos y los procedimientos lingüísticos de cronistas religiosos de los siglos XVI y XVII, resultado de su afán de convencer, de su impulso crítico y de su proximidad sentimental al mundo descrito, que da como resultado una explicación del mundo cercana, familiar y personal.

Authors: Tella Ruiz David
Published: December 2020

Entre las fuentes primarias del siglo xvi de la conquista de las Indias que actualmente descansan en el Archivo General de Indias, en repositorios suramericanos, o en bibliotecas privadas, me interesa destacar las probanzas de méritos y servicios porque a pesar de ser un tipo de fuentes habitual en la historia de la conquista del Nuevo Mundo, es necesario un nuevo estudio de esta tipología documental para ampliar y actualizar la comprensión de su clasificación, estructura y utilidad.

A descentralização de recursos no financiamento da Educação Básica
Authors: Roggero Rosemary , Silva Adriana Zanini da
Published: December 2020

Este trabalho analisa a política de descentralização de recursos financeiros da educação básica. Situa a descentralização de recursos no contexto social, econômico e político; analisa a descentralização nos preceitos da Constituição Federal de 1988 e no Plano de Reforma do Estado Brasileiro; sua implementação na educação por meio das políticas de fundos, dos programas específicos do Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação, dos municípios pesquisados e seus impactos na gestão das escolas. Justifica-se pelo processo de disputa em que se encontra o financiamento da educação básica brasileira. A pesquisa empírica deu-se em escolas de educação básica de São Paulo e sua região metropolitana. Constata-se que a descentralização dos recursos financeiros não se efetiva como tal, mas como desconcentração.

O artigo analisa o caso “Projeto Monitoria EaD” e a coletânea “De Wuhan a Perdizes: trajetos educativos”, ambos desenvolvidos no primeiro semestre de 2020. Inovadores, os dois projetos foram realizados por uma instituição de ensino superior para retomar as aulas em regime remoto após a suspensão das atividades presenciais decorrente da pandemia da Covid-19. Reuniram professores, alunos e egressos com comportamentos e características de uma “rede”. Como resultados, as aulas, as leituras e as pesquisas foram recontextualizadas e ressignificadas, abrindo novos espaços de aprendizagem para professores e alunos. As variáveis, advindas das exigências de isolamento físico, possibilitaram um espaço de divulgação científica que dialogasse com os assuntos em voga que afetam a Educação formal. Emergiram novas autorias e parcerias. Os dois produtos resultaram na construção de uma “rede” democrática e inclusiva, que oportuniza a autonomia e o empoderamento dos integrantes.
Os desafios e as possibilidades do ensino remoto na Educação Básica: um estudo de caso com professores de anos iniciais do município de Alegrete/RS

A necessidade da inserção das Tecnologias Digitais (TD) no campo da educação se tornou ainda mais significativa em virtude do distanciamento social, oriundo da pandemia de COVID-19. Instituições de ensino do mundo inteiro passaram a adaptar seus planejamentos do presencial para o on-line, por meio do Ensino Remoto Emergencial (ERE). Nesse sentido, esta análise, de abordagem qualitativa, caracterizada como exploratória e aliada ao estudo de caso, buscou investigar os principais desafios e possibilidades que emergiram nessa experiência ímpar e desafiadora, na perspectiva da formação docente, encontrados para atuação no ERE. Questões envolvendo infraestrutura e contexto corroboraram para gerar fatores intervenientes, porém esses foram apenas tangenciados em função da discussão proposta. Os resultados obtidos demonstram a falta de uma formação inicial adequada acerca das TD como principal desafio e, também, limitadora, porém não determinante, por parte dos docentes para poder utilizar, de forma ampla e reflexiva, as plataformas on-line no ERE.

La pandemia surgida con el COVID ha provocado una de las mayores necesidades de transformación de los sistemas educativos de la historia a nivel mundial, afectando a casi 1,6 mil millones de estudiantes en más de 190 países y todos los continentes. Según ha afirmado UNESCO en los últimos informes, el cierre de escuelas y otros espacios de aprendizaje ha afectado al 94% de la población estudiantil del mundo y hasta el 99% en los países con menores recursos y acceso a la tecnología. Tras este repentino cambio sufrido en la educación debemos poner el foco en el rediseño de la enseñanza presencial y la virtual y evaluar el impacto de su implementación y la transformación tecnológica necesaria de los espacios de aprendizaje. Las mayores dificultades surgidas en este proceso son el acceso a la tecnología y recursos para realizar el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en modalidad a distancia y la formación del profesorado en competencias digitales y nuevas metodologías.

Authors: Da Silva Franklin Menezes , Da Costa Priscila Rezende
Published: December 2020

As empresas de base tecnológica necessitam constantemente de novos produtos e serviços para enfrentar a concorrência em um mercado dinâmico e concorrido, como o que se apresenta atualmente. Apesar de necessitarem de novos conhecimentos para o desenvolvimento de novos produtos ou serviços, muitas ainda não têm um sistema de absorção do conhecimento externo estruturado e voltado para a inovação. Nesse contexto, o presente relato técnico tem o objetivo de elaborar um plano de ação com um sistema estruturado de absorção do conhecimento externo, desenvolvimento e inovação em duas empresas caracterizadas como de base tecnológica do setor de tecnologia da informação e comunicação do estado de São Paulo. O cumprimento das sugestões descritas no plano de ação por parte das empresas, possibilitará a absorção do conhecimento externo de forma estruturada e com maior eficiência. Utiliza-se como base, o processo de capacidade absortiva (aquisição e assimilação) para atingir o objetivo proposto.

Authors: De Freitas Franciele Klosowski , Maçaneiro Marlete Beatriz
Published: December 2020

A avaliação do portfólio de patentes apresenta grande importância estratégica, além de auxiliar na identificação da viabilidade econômica de pedidos já depositados, contribuições na redução de custos com manutenção do banco de patentes. Isso torna-se favorável, principalmente, para instituições que possuem um portfólio extenso de tecnologias, como é o caso da Universidade Federal do Paraná - UFPR, e o número de depósitos de pedidos que podem aumentar. O objetivo deste estudo é apresentar um modelo de avaliação do portfólio de tecnologias para a Agência de Inovação UFPR. Para a formatação do modelo sugerido, foi realizada uma pesquisa por métodos já utilizados em instituições conceituadas e, após análise das demandas e dificuldades encontradas no ambiente, foco do estudo,
Revisão bibliométrica sobre fusão e aquisição de empresas no Brasil

Published: December 2020

Objetivo do estudo: Analisar a produção acadêmica sobre Fusões e Aquisições (FA), em língua portuguesa no Brasil, por meio de uma revisão bibliométrica e integrativa, dada a importância dessas estratégias para o crescimento de empresas e o elevado número de ocorrências no país.Método: Pesquisa exploratória, com revisão bibliométrica e de literatura integrativa em 68 artigos publicados de 2000 a 2018, encontrados na base Spell e no Portal de Periódicos da Capes. Originalidade/relevância: Mesmo com o interesse e a importância das estratégias de FA para as empresas e a economia do país, não foram encontradas revisões bibliométricas ou integrativas sobre o tema, diferentemente do cenário internacional, em que há trabalhos sobre o panorama das pesquisas e interesses de estudos.Principais resultados: Pesquisadores de diversas regiões estudam o tema sem a mesma intensidade de ocorrência das FA no país. Há certo grau de concentração de autores, periódicos e instituições, porém inconstantes no período estudado. Ao utilizar os programas Atlas TI® e VOSviewer®, foram encontrados quatro agrupamentos – Economia/Finanças, Estratégia, Gestão do Processo de FA e Cultura – que refletem as principais linhas temáticas e estão coerentes com a análise de cocitação que apontou o uso de referências internacionais/nacionais na perspectiva financeira, estratégica e de gestão. Destaca-se que apenas artigos mais recentes (2015-2018) citam outros autores, principalmente internacionais. Contribuições teóricas: Apresentação de panorama integrativo das pesquisas de FA no Brasil, em língua portuguesa, com trajetória do tema, características, lacunas e assuntos ausentes, proposição de agenda de estudos, com vistas a pesquisas mais robustas e compreensão mais plural e interdisciplinar da temática.
