Information Sources and Retirement Savings of Working Women
Authors: Hsu Chungwen
Published: March 2017

This study examined how retirement planning information search was related to retirement savings of working women. By controlling for sociodemographic variables, the study further explored factors associated with individual information sources for retirement planning. An online survey was developed to collect data from a national population, obtaining 591 valid responses. The results showed that women who learned about retirement planning through discussions with friends/relatives tended to save less in their personal retirement savings, whereas those who obtained information from financial advisors tended to save more. Personal income was positively associated with seeking information from financial advisors. The study concluded by discussing the implications for financial service providers, retirement plan marketers, financial educators, researchers, and policymakers.

Na condição de professora de uma universidade católica, como a PUCSP, e de uma profissional com uma posição claramente favorável à escola pública, gratuita, obrigatória em seus graus iniciais e laica, vi-me diretamente envolvida no movimento de professores universitários em razão das crises pelas quais passou o ensino nos anos 70 e 80 e, particularmente, envolvida no movimento dos professores da PUCSP, em conseqüência dos reflexos dessa crise no interior dessa universidade com as especificidades que comportava. Desse modo, como participante de uma fração de professores, alunos e funcionários que compartilhavam alguns princípios e, em conseqüência, tomavam uma determinada posição político-ideológica diante da situação da época em questão, fui levada, assim como boa parte dos envolvidos, a estudos e discussões que foram produzindo uma elaboração teórica que chegou a ser registrada por alguns de nós.

Published: March 2017

O Sistema Educacional permaneceu estático por muitas décadas, centrado num modelo único quase universal, onde a educação se dava apenas pela transmissão do saber. Essa visão clássica de ensino está mudando para uma concepção de ensino aberto, com novos conceitos de aprendizagem. A Educação à Distância contribui fortemente para essa evolução e se coloca como um ponto intermediário de uma linha contínua em cujos extremos situa a relação presencial professor-aluno, de um lado, e, do outro, a educação autodidata, onde os conteúdos organizados passam a ser a chave-mestra dessa nova forma de aprender. Com a Internet, novos paradígmas têm surgido, e suas surpreendentes possibilidades estão capturando a imaginação e interesse de educadores ao redor do mundo, levando-os a repensar a natureza dos métodos de ensino e aprendizagem.

La discromia de un diente es una alteración que varía en etiología, localización y severidad. Esta puede estar relacionada a causas extrínsecas, intrínsecas o una combinación de ambos. Una manera de tratar estas piezas no vitales, es el blanqueamiento interno, el cual se presenta como una alternativa conservadora frente a otros proce- dimientos como restauraciones con resina, carillas o coronas cerámicas, ya que preserva al máximo la estructura dentaria. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar un reporte de caso de una paciente con discromia de la pieza 21 y cómo fue tratada con blanqueamiento interno, además hacer una revisión de la literatura actual presentando la etiología de las alteraciones de color en dientes no vitales, las alternativas de tratamiento, así como los agentes disponibles para este fin. Las técnicas para realizar el blanqueamiento de una pieza no vital son: la técnica en consultorio o In-office bleaching, las técnicas ambulatorias (Walking bleach e inside/outside bleaching) y por último la técnica mixta. Asimismo existen agentes blanqueadores disponibles en diferentes concentraciones para realizar dichas técnicas, cuya efectividad será revisada en este trabajo. Existen diversos factores que afectarán la eficacia del blanqueamiento interno, como la edad del paciente, tiempo de oscurecimiento, el grado y origen de la discromia, que podrían afectar el resultado final y la longevidad del tratamiento.

Published: March 2017

The purpose of this study was to systematically review forest therapy programs designed to decrease the level of depression among adults and subsequently identify the gaps in the literature. This systematic review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The authors independently screened full-text articles from various databases using the following criteria: 1) intervention studies assessing the effects of forest therapy on depression in adults aged 18 years and over; 2) studies including at least one control group or condition; 3) been peer-reviewed; and 4) been published either in English or Korean before July 2016. The Scottish Intercollegiate Guideline Network (SIGN) measurement tool was used to assess the risk of bias in each trial. In the final sample, a total of 28 articles (English: 13, Korean: 15) were included in the present systematic review. This review concluded that forest therapy is one of the emerging and effective interventions for decreasing the level of depression in adults. However, the studies included in this review lacked methodological rigor. Future studies assessing the long-term effect of forest therapy on depression using rigorous study designs are needed.

Published: March 2017

A reduction in population sodium (as salt) consumption is one of the most cost-effective strategies to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease and it is a global health priority. High potassium intake is also recommended to reduce cardiovascular disease. To establish effective policies for setting targets and monitoring effectiveness within each country, the current level of consumption should be known. Greece lacks data on actual sodium and potassium intakes. The aim of the present study was therefore to assess dietary salt (using sodium as biomarker) and potassium intakes in a sample of healthy adults in northern Greece and to determine whether adherence to a Mediterranean diet is related to different sodium intakes or sodium-to-potassium ratio. A cross-sectional survey was carried out in Thessaloniki greater metropolitan area (northern Greece) (n=252, aged 18-75 years, 45.2% males). Participants’ dietary sodium and potassium intakes were determined by 24h urinary sodium and potassium excretions. In addition, we estimated their adherence to Mediterranean diet by the use of an 11-item MedDietScore (range 0-55). The mean sodium excretion was 175 (SD 72) mmol/day, equivalent to 4,220 (1,745) mg of sodium or 10.7 (4.4) g of salt per day and potassium excretion was 65 (25) mmol/day, equivalent to 3,303 (1,247) mg/day. Men had higher sodium and potassium excretions compared to women. Only 5.6% of the sample had salt intake <5g/d, which is the target intake recommended by the WHO. Mean sodium-to-potassium intake ratio was 1.34 (0.51). There was no significant difference in salt or potassium intake or their ratio across MedDietScore quartiles. No significant relationships were found between salt intake and adherence to Mediterranean diet, suggesting that the perception of the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet does not hold when referring to salt consumption. These results suggest the need for a larger nation-wide survey on salt intake in Greece and underline the importance of continuation of salt reduction initiatives in Greece.
Detecting Breast Cancer with a Dual-Modality Device

Published: March 2017

Although mammography has been the gold standard for early detection of breast cancer, if a woman has dense breast tissue, a false negative diagnosis may occur. Breast ultrasound, whether hand-held or automated, is a useful adjunct to mammography but adds extra time and cost. The primary aim was to demonstrate that our second-generation Aceso system, which combines full-field digital mammography (FFDM) and automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) in a single platform, is able to produce improved quality images that provide clinically meaningful results. Aceso was first tested using two industry standards: a CDMAM phantom to assess the FFDM images; and the CIRS 054GS phantom to evaluate the ABUS images. In addition, 25 women participated in a clinical trial: 14 were healthy volunteers while 11 were patients referred by the breast clinic at Groote Schuur Hospital. The CDMAM phantom results showed the FFDM results were better than EUREF’s standard of “acceptable” and were approaching “achievable”. The ABUS results showed lateral and axial spatial resolution of 0.5 mm and adequate depth penetration of 80 mm. Our second-generation Aceso system, with its improved quality of clinical FFDM and ABUS images, has demonstrated its potential for early detection of breast cancer in a busy clinic.

Cinema e educação para além do conteúdo
Authors: Nunes Linhares Ronaldo , Gonçalves de Ávila Éverton
Published: March 2017

O presente artigo tem com o objetivo analisar a relação entre cinema educação e a formação de educadores. Procurou-se investigar a possibilidade da mediação, da decodificação e da representação do cinema como exercício cognitivo de aprender para além dos conteúdos disciplinares. Para isso percorreu-se conceitos de Cotidiano, Subjetividade, Representações Sociais, a partir de pensadores como Hall, Heller e Moscovici. A partir de pesquisa quali-quantitativa com professores do curso de Pedagogia em três instituições de Ensino Superior no Estado e com professores do Curso de História de uma universidade privada de Sergipe, buscou verificar se o cinema é utilizado em sala de aula, quais os filmes preferencialmente trabalhados e quais os procedimentos de escolha desses filmes para o processo de aprendizagem. Concluiu-se que as aproximações do cinema e da educação são múltiplas e complexas, extrapolando a simples associação do filme ao conteúdo e permitindo, através da aná- lise fílmica, um amplo processo de percepção e reflexão sobre os saberes e as práticas cotidianas das representações sociais e do processo de construção de subjetividades da linguagem cinematográfica no espaço escolar.Palavras-chave: Educação/Cinema.

Pedagogías del cuerpo y del carácter en la “Revista de Educación” durante la Gobernación de José Luís Cantilo (Buenos Aires, 1922-1926)
Authors: Galak Eduardo
Published: March 2017

El presente escrito aborda distintos posicionamientos respecto a cómo y para qué educar los cuerpos, según las notas publicadas en la “Revista de Educación” entre 1922 y 1926. Ello permite comprender las estrategias editoriales de la época de José Luís Cantilo al frente de la gobernación de la provincia de Buenos Aires y qué sentidos sobre la pedagogización de los cuerpos y del carácter se esbozan. Si bien no diseminó una doctrina monolítica respecto a la cultura física, es posible comprender cierta analogía con la propuesta gubernamental de Cantilo en relación con el desarrollo de las prácticas deportivas, cuestión relativamente original para los discursos estatales en Argentina que seguían un método oficial que priorizaba las gimnasias y los juegos, y excluía los deportes. Lo cual permitió que la “educación de los cuerpos bonaerenses” emerja como una particularidad en comparación con lo que vertical, centralizadora y centrífugamente se diseminaba desde el Estado argentino.Palabras clave: Educación.

The role of public online information in helping to reduce disaster damage is expected to become increasingly important since it can be used for decision making about disaster response. This paper aims to discuss the effectiveness and limitations of real-time online information about heavy rainfall based on an analysis of data on the disaster caused by Typhoons 17 and 18 in 2015 in Miyagi prefecture, Japan, and on a focus group interview survey with four experts on natural disasters. The results from the interviews showed the following: (1) Landslide alert information is reliable for prediction purposes. However, many people did not monitor it because it was released around midnight. (2) Areas of landslide occurrence and river flooding correspond to areas with heavy cumulative rainfall. Yet cumulative rainfall data are not available on the web. (3) The available radar-rainfall data can be used to predict the situation one hour from the present as long as the person has expert knowledge. (4) It is possible to monitor river water levels at many points. Yet, about half of the observation points have no established “flood danger water level.” (5) Local governments released a great amount of disaster information through social media before flooding occurred on some rivers. However, one must monitor multiple social media accounts and not just the account of one’s hometown.

Experimental Study of the Dynamics and Stability of Intermittent Gas-Lift in a Laboratory Scale Model
Authors: Carlson Oscar , Bordalo Sergio N.
Published: March 2017

Conventional intermittent gas-lift systems (CIGL) are usually employed for petroleum wells in mature fields when the reservoir pressure becomes so low that continuous gas lift is no longer efficient. The purpose of this experimental study is to investigate the dynamics and stability of the cycles for conventional intermittent gas-lift systems (CIGL) for petroleum wells. Presently, this kind of experimental data is still lacking in the literature. Following the advances achieved so far by Carvalho (2004) and Lara (2013) on this subject, further development of a laboratory-scale physical simulator was carried out for a CIGL, and a selected set of experiments was conducted. The laboratory apparatus for the CIGL is composed of three operational sets, representing, respectively, the oil reservoir, the production well and its controls, and the gas injection system. However, water and air are used instead of oil and natural gas as the produced fluid and the lifting gas, respectively. A microcontroller board is used for data acquisition of key pressure nodes and also for the actuation system of a gas-lift valve proxy. In addition, a variable inlet flow valve provides a range of productivity indexes for the mock-up reservoir. Three vertical pipes of different diameters are used as production tubing. A series of experiments were done to analyze the influence of the main parameters on the productivity of the CIGL system and to identify the stability conditions for the CIGL cycles. For this purpose, the fallback was determined for various conditions of the operational parameters, and the repeatability of the cycles was verified. The results from this study will help in the development of a mathematical simulator for the CIGL. Such a simulator may be extended to mature oilfield wells and applied to the design of CIGL cycles to achieve optimum production rates.
Analysis of challenges and opportunities to meaningful Indigenous engagement in sustainable water and wastewater management
Authors: Black Kerry , McBean Edward
Published: March 2017

Access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation continue to be significant issues affecting Indigenous populations worldwide. The full participation of Indigenous peoples within water and wastewater policy and decision-making has been hindered by many factors, including capacity, inadequate resources and, overall, a lack of respect or formal recognition of Indigenous rights. This study investigates limitations to engagement around water and wastewater management and policy. Findings from this study show that in order to improve engagement with Indigenous people on water and wastewater management policy, systemic issues need to be addressed, in addition to gaining a greater understanding of the specific socio-economic conditions, and technical and financial capacity gaps, and the recognition of inherent Indigenous rights is necessary. It is concluded that long-term sustainability of water and wastewater management necessitates Indigenous engagement from the start, as well as increased autonomy over the management of their systems, including financing. The findings from this paper can be used by policy-makers and decision-makers to address the urgent issue of access to safe drinking water and sanitation, by improving the level of engagement with community members, and challenging the status-quo of top-down approaches through community-driven processes.
On the de sitter tardyons and tachyons
Authors: Cotaescu Ion
Published: March 2017

It is shown that on the de Sitter manifolds the tachyonic geodesics are
restricted such that the classical tachyons cannot exist on this manifold at
any time. On the contrary, the theory of the scalar quantum tachyons is free
of any restriction. The tachyonic scalar and Dirac plane waves are deduced in
this geometry, pointing out that these are well-defined, behaving as tempered
distributions at any moment.

Published: March 2017

Introduction. The aim of this study was to translate the Child Oral Impact on
Daily Performance index into Serbian language and to evaluate its reliability
in practice. Material and Methods. Following internationally established
methods, adaptation of the Child Oral Impact on Daily Performance index for
children and adolescents in the Serbian speaking areas consisted of three
steps: forward translation of the Child Oral Impact on Daily Performance
index, backward translation, and a pilot study. Results. A pilot study
included 42 participants (21 males and 21 females), mean age of 12.0 ? 1.01
years. All items showed a corrected item-total correlation coefficient above
>0.20 and the standardized Cronbach?s alpha coefficient was 0.80. All
correlation coefficient values were positive. The prevalence of oral health
impact measured by the Child Oral Impact on Daily Performance index was
relatively high and 54.8% of the participants reported at least one oral
impact on the daily performance in the last 3 months. The most common
activities affected were eating (38.1%) and cleaning the teeth (16.7%).
Conclusion. The Serbian version of the Child Oral Impact on Daily Performance
index is suitable for use in everyday practice and it provides useful
information in the evaluation of oral health-related quality of life. The
prevalence of oral impacts was high with the most prevalent impact referring
to eating. Further clinical research, including larger number of
participants, is required for exact verification of the Child Oral Impact on
Daily Performance index.

Published: March 2017

Introduction. Psychiatric disorders represent an important risk factor for
death by suicide. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of
psychiatric disorders among the persons who committed suicide in the
territory of the City of Nis in the period 2001 - 2010. Additionally, this
study aimed to compare the socio-demographic characteristics between persons
with and without psychiatric disorders. Material and methods. This
retrospective study included 524 persons who committed suicide (330 with and
194 without psychiatric disorders) in the period 2001 - 2010. Data on
socio-demographic characteristics, previous suicide attempts, and methods of
suicide were obtained from medical and police records (Police Directorate
for the City of Nis, and Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia).
Results. We studied the incidence of suicides among the persons with
psychiatric disorders compared to persons without any medical condition in
the studied period. Depression (104, 31.5%) and personality disorders (103,
31.2%) were the most common psychiatric disorders among the persons who
committed suicide, whereas only 21 persons (6.36%) had schizophrenia. Persons
with psychiatric disorders had a higher level of education, more of them were
divorced, had a private source of income and more frequently attempted
suicide compared to persons without any diseases (p<0.001). The most common
methods of suicide were hanging and poisoning in both investigated groups.
Conclusion. Depression was the most common disorder registered among the
persons with psychiatric disorders who committed suicide. It is necessary to
develop a national strategy for suicide prevention for groups at high risk of
suicide.
Posterior wall myocardial infarction: A case report
Authors: Cankovic Milenko , Bjelic Snezana , Ivanovic Vladimir , Stojsic-Milosavljevic Anastazija , Somer Dalibor , Jarakovic Milana
Published: March 2017

Introduction. Acute myocardial infarction is a clinical manifestation of
coronary disease which occurs when a blood vessel is narrowed or occluded in
such a way that it leads to irreversible myocardial ischemia. ST segment
depression in leads V1?V3 on the electrocardiogram points to the anterior
wall ischemia, although it is actually ST elevation with posterior wall
myocardial infarction. In the absence of clear ST segment elevation, it may
be overlooked, leading to different therapeutic algorithms which could
significantly affect the outcome. Case report. A 77 year-old female patient
was admitted to the Coronary Care Unit due to prolonged chest pain followed
by nausea and horizontal ST segment depression on the electrocardiogram in
V1?V3 up to 3 mm. ST segment elevation myocardial infarction of the posterior
wall was diagnosed, associated with the development of initial cardiogenic
shock and ischemic mitral regurgitation. An emergency coronarography was
performed as well as primary percutaneous coronary intervention with stent
placement in the circumflex artery, the infarct-related artery. Due to a
multi-vessel disease, surgical myocardial revascularization was indicated.
Conclusion. Posterior wall transmural myocardial infarction is the most
common misdiagnosis in the 12 lead electrocardiogram reading. Routine use of
additional posterior (lateral) leads in all patients with chest pain has no
diagnostic or therapeutic benefits, but it is indicated when posterior or
lateral wall infarction is suspected. The use of posterior leads increases
the number of diagnosed ST segment elevation myocardial infarctions
contributing to better risk assessment, prognosis and survival due to
reperfusion therapy.
Biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction in cardiovascular diseases
Authors: Smiljic Sonja , Mijovic Milica , Savic Sladjana
Published: March 2017

Introduction. Endothelial dysfunction is the result of numerous infectious or
noninfectious acute and chronic diseases, mechanical damage, hemodynamic
imbalance and effects of certain drugs. Endothelial dysfunction can be
assessed by determining biomarkers (adhesion molecules, inflammatory
cytokines and growth factors, and noninvasive visualization biomarkers).
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cellular adhesion molecule.
Adhesion molecules mediate the interaction of cells with the extracellular
matrix, as well as with other cells. It is shown that adhesion molecules and
molecules of the extracellular matrix are markers of endothelial dysfunction
and they are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. P-selectin and
E-selectin. Determination of these two mediators is important not only in the
evaluation of endothelial damage in acute inflammation, but in other chronic
non-infectious conditions such as atherosclerosis. C-reactive protein.
C-reactive protein reduces the transcription of endothelial nitric oxide
synthase at the level of the endothelial cells and ?destabilize? their
messenger ribonucleic acid, thus leading to a reduction of the synthesis of
nitric oxide, in the basal and stimulated conditions, which is significant
for the development of endothelial dysfunction as a part of the formation of
subclinical atherosclerosis. Vascular endothelial growth factor, fibrinogen
and thrombomodulin. Vascular endothelial growth factor is a cytokine that
stimulates angiogenesis for the purpose of revascularization of ischemic
tissues, and mediates in a variety of functions of endothelial cells,
including proliferation, migration, invasion, survival and permeability.
Noninvasive visualization biomarkers. Determination of intima-media complex
thickness and calcium score index by computed tomography are considered
clinically reliable methods in prevention and early diagnosis of coronary
artery disease and acute myocardial infarction, changing the basic concepts
of prevention. Conclusion. At this point it is not easy to say what clinical
significance are listed biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction in determining
the risk for cardiovascular disease.
Promises, Promises: The Unbuilt Petroleum Environment in Murmansk
Authors: Wilson Rowe Elana
Published: March 2017

The Arctic as a booming oil and gas province has been a predominant geopolitical representation of the region. However, the shale gas revolution in the United States and the drop in oil prices since late 2014 has reduced the viability of many high-cost Arctic oil and gas prospects. Little scholarly attention has been paid to the consequences of pursued but unrealized natural resource-based projects. This article brings literature from geography and science and technology studies into conversation to map out a preliminary research agenda for understanding how these “shelved futures” are still likely to matter in Arctic communities and policymaking. This conceptual argument is bolstered with a short exploratory case study of Murmansk, Russia. The qualitative-interview based case study illustrates two ways in which the Shtokman gas project retained regional significance, even three years after the project was suspended. Specifically, these are 1) a comparatively negative assessment of the broader socio-economic prospects of the region, and 2) expanded and possibly changed understandings on the part of the different stakeholders (business, government, civil society/the public) about their own and others’ potential roles. The semi-structured interviews with stakeholders primarily focused on recollections of petroleum companies’ corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, as these efforts were a concrete harbinger of the much-trumpeted oil and gas future.(Published: January 2017)Citation: E.W. Rowe. “Promises, promises: The unbuilt petroleum environment in Murmansk.” Arctic Review on Law and Politics, Vol. 8, 2017, pp. 1–14. http://dx.doi.org/10.23865/arctic.v8.504
Material texts as objects in interaction – constraints and possibilities in relation to dialogic reading instruction.
Authors: Tanner Marie , Olin-Scheller Christina , Tengberg Michael
Published: March 2017

In this article we focus the role of texts as material objects in the interaction between a teacher and her students in Swedish grade nine, working with argumentative texts on basis of dialogic reading instruction. With a conversation analysis approach we investigate how texts are used as material objects and resources in the organization of interaction between students and their teacher during group work. We also discuss what pedagogical implications for reading instruction do the role of texts as material objects have when striving for dialogicity in the classroom. The result shows that texts are used for establishing a shared focus of attention in relation to solving the task, as well as negotiating responsibility and primacy in this activity. They are also used as resources for organizing turn-taking. A conclusion is that an intention to implement dialogic reading instruction requires awareness of how dialogic and critical aspects of reading easily become subordinated to the aim of problem solving in classrooms as task work is organized around material texts.
Classroom interaction and its potential for literacy learning
Authors: Schmidt Catarina , Skoog Marianne
Published: March 2017

This contribution discusses interactional conditions and possibilities in classrooms related to literacy education during the middle school years. The article draws on a case study where interactional processes of learning have been followed closely in two multilingual classrooms with twelve-year-old students in grade six in Sweden. The question of how to efficiently scaffold students in their learning of literacy across the curriculum is crucial. Advanced literacy levels are part of the conditions necessary for citizenship. Research on classroom interaction, and more specifically how education through processes of interaction and communication can scaffold students to develop high and sustainable levels of literacy, therefore can be said to be of uttermost importance. Our aim with this article is to draw out key insights for how processes of interaction are – and can be - organized to support literacy learning across the curriculum. The analysis focuses on how interaction is organized in educational situations. More specifically, we look for ways of organizing interaction in different situations and aspects of everyday classroom practices, and in relation to necessary approaches for scaffolding literacy learning (Cummins, 2001). Drawing on the two subject areas, Law and Right and World Religions, the result elucidate the important role which different approaches of interaction play for student’s learning of literacy across the curriculum.
Réplica a "Una crítica al argumento kantiano de McDowell en contra de la percepción animal"
Authors: Gensollen Mario
Published: March 2017

Este trabajo constituye una réplica a "Una crítica al argumento kantiano de McDowell en contra de la percepción animal", de Jorge F. Ladrón de Guevara (2015). 

En primer lugar, se valora el intento de explicar la percepción animal que Ladrón de Guevara lleva a cabo y su utilización del argumento de McDowell y de la posición de Millikan sobre los conceptos. Concluye que, aunque comienza a advertir que la solución al problema es problemática porque ya lo es el planteamiento de sus términos, Ladrón de Guevara no abandona los problemas que este tipo de explicación ya tiene desde su exposición kantiana, misma que reproduce y distingue de las elaboraciones de McDowell y Guevara. 

En segundo lugar, devuelve el panorama más amplio en el que se enmarca esta cuestión y la replantea al asumir como inevitable la antropomofización del problema que supone explicar el comportamiento animal, pues no puede sino hacerse en relación al aparato cognitivo humano, propone, siguiendo algunas intuiciones de Wittgesnstein, volver a plantear la cuestión en términos, más bien, del modo de vida adoptado por animales y supuesto en los humanos prelingüísticos, en comporación con el modo de vida adoptado por los seres humanos, animales lingüísticos. 
Génesis y horizontes de estudio de la teoría de las capacidades
Authors: Ibarra Soto Diana E.
Published: March 2017

La teoría de las capacidades ha ganado preponderancia los últimos años como marco conceptual de la construcción de la vida política, económica y filosófica. El siguiente trabajo tiene tres propósitos: a) señala y enfatiza la importancia de la teoría de las capacidades, b) explica su génesis tanto histórica como filósofica, c) exhibir el espectro de opciones que esta aproximación provee a diferentes tópicos, como los derechos humanos, la justicia social o la igualdad de género. Este analisis nos permite redirigir la filosofía política, pues pone al ser humano al centro de estas discusiones, en contraste con la perspectiva contractualista prevaleciente que ha moldeado ampliamente la filosofía política del siglo XX. Nussbaum, influido por Sen, ofrece una visión específica que ha desplazado el desencanto de la deconstrucción posmoderna hacia una posición más optimista y próxima a la filosofía clásica.

Escola sem partido na Educação do Campo
Authors: Bezerra Maria Cristina Dos Santos , Bezerra Neto Luiz
Published: March 2017

Desde o início da Idade Moderna, a escola carrega uma função social, qual seja? Ensinar, transmitir os conhecimentos construídos e acumulados pela sociedade ao longo da história da humanidade. Assim, a escola tem a função de transmitir o que de melhor a humanidade construiu em termos de ciências, filosofia, artes, linguagens, etc. O ensino da física, da matemática, da língua vernácula e das línguas estrangeiras é realizado nas escolas, bem como é nas escolas que se ensina fundamentos de filosofia, de sociologia, de psicologia, assim como história, geografia etc. Assim, a escola se transformou na principal agência de formação e transmissão de conhecimento e formação dos povos, independentemente da nacionalidade. Desde a Revolução Francesa, tem havido uma luta em defesa de uma escola que possa ser laica, republicana e que possa atender a todos com igualdade.

Para a realização deste estudo, utilizamos o Documento Base Nacional do PROEJA, bem como autores que tratam da EJA e a proposta pedagógica do IFMA. A pesquisa em análise é de cunho qualitativo, abrangeu as coordenadoras pedagógicas, uma geral e outra do curso técnico em Agropecuária-PROEJA e professores, com o objetivo de compreendermos as percepções destes sujeitos em relação ao processo de implantação do programa, na sua dimensão pedagógica. O PROEJA é um programa educacional que se encontra fundamentado nos princípios educativos da Educação de Jovens e Adultos e apresenta em sua proposta curricular a integração entre trabalho, educação, ciência e tecnologia, com o objetivo de contribuir para o enriquecimento científico, cultural, político e profissional do aluno. Fundamentamo-nos em BRASIL (2005), BRASIL (2007), FREIRE (1996), IFMA (2010), PAIVA (1973), PAIVA (1987), dentre outros. O estudo nos revelou que a implantação do PROEJA no contexto do IFMA Campus Maracanã foi de extrema importância por possibilitar aos jovens e adultos uma formação geral aliada à formação profissional, além do compromisso e responsabilidade que a instituição tem com o programa e sua expansão, apesar da fragilidade demonstrada pela maioria dos sujeitos pesquisados em relação a essa compreensão. Palavras-chave: PROEJA.

O Programa Bolsa Família no Município de Elói de Souza/RN: a condicionalidade relativa à frequência escolar contribui para a permanência dos estudantes?
Authors: Lima Jane Soares Saturnino de , Sousa Andreia Da Silva Quintanilha
Published: March 2017

Este artigo buscou refletir sobre o Programa Bolsa Família – PBF e as contribuições de suas condicionalidades, abordando a questão da frequência escolar na perspectiva de favorecer a permanência dos estudantes usuários do PBF. Tendo como realidade empírica a Escola Municipal Euclides Lins, zona rural, em Senador Elói de Souza/RN, cuja amostra é composta pelos estudantes matriculados no ensino fundamental II – 6º ao 9ª – no período de 2014 a 2015. Os resultados encontrados revelam que, no período estudado, o total de usuários do PBF matriculados era de 83% em 2014 e 77,5% em 2015, com uma média de frequência acima de 95% nos dois anos, apresentando uma taxa média de evasão de 2%. Assim, no tocante às condicionalidades de frequência escolar, a pesquisa revelou que o programa tem contribuído para elevar as taxas de matrículas, uma vez que a escola apresentou uma população estudantil composta por uma maioria de usuários do PBF. Todavia, cabe salientar a necessidade de integração com outros programas que apontem para a promoção de direitos e que construam as condições para sua emancipação. Palavras-chave: Bolsa Família. Educação. Frequência Escolar e Evasão.
De la problematización social a la problematización pública del derecho educativo de migrantes indígenas en contextos urbanos: la educación de los niños y niñas qom (toba) en Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina (1986-1990)
Authors: Corbetta Silvina
Published: March 2017

La migración qom que recepciona la ciudad de Rosario, Santa Fe (Argentina) constituyó avanzados los años 80 aquello que desde el análisis de políticas públicas se denomina problema público, originado desde un problema social de progresivo dinamismo, producto de los flujos continuos de migrantes indígenas a la ciudad, y con ellos, la llegada de los niños y niñas indígenas a las escuelas criollas instaladas en cercanía de lo que fue el primer asentamiento qom. El artículo se realiza con base al marco teórico-conceptual que aportan los estudios de política pública con eje en las tres primeras fases del ciclo de la política pública: (i) surgimiento y percepción del problema, (ii) el ingreso a la agenda pública y (iii) la formulación y decisión del programa de la política. ¿Cómo se enuncia entre los actores el problema social? ¿Cuál fue el proceso que permitió – por primera vez- convertir en problema público, la educación de los niños migrantes e indígenas de Rosario a fines de los años 80 y de principios de los 90? ¿Cómo surgieron en ese contexto los actores indígenas? ¿Qué luchas, intereses de actores privados y factores colaborativos diversos confluyeron en las primeras fases del emergente ciclo de vida de la citada política? El artículo pretende analizar el modo en que se configura, fundamentalmente, la demanda educativa de migrantes internos indígenas a través de la educación. La estrategia metodológica es de corte cualitativo. La información se construyó con base a entrevistas, revisión bibliográfica y análisis de normativas. Palabras clave: Migración Urbana Indígena.

Authors: Vegini Valdir , Vegini Rebecca Louize
Published: March 2017

O artigo tem como objeto o acervo parcial de narrativas ancestrais do povo Kujubim e por objetivo divulgar, ainda que parcialmente, as tradições (costumes, crenças etc.) remanescentes na memória de alguns informantes na esperança de que essas tradições sejam revivificadas e perpetuadas. Para fundamentar o trabalho, os autores apoiam-se, principalmente, nos estudos que tratam da memória (individual, coletiva e histórica) e sua propriedade formadora de identidade (individual e coletiva), da tradição oral e da produção de narrativas. E após uma breve caracterização étnica do povo Kujubim, os autores apresentam a transcrição de nove relatos (com adaptação próxima ao português-brasileiro padrão escrito) produzidos por esses informantes durante a realização da Assembleia do Povo Kujubim ocorrida no salão paroquial da Igreja Católica de Costa Marques em dezembro de 2013. O acervo cultural é constituído das seguintes narrativas: "Reencontrando o caminho de casa", "A caça, o beiju e o fogo na aldeia", "A rotina na aldeia", "Pintura no corpo: guerra e festa", "O pai da mata", "A mãe d'água", "A cidade debaixo do rio Guaporé", "Três caçadores e os mistérios da mata", "O Mapinguari".               Palavras-chave: Povo Kujubim.
