Presencia de maíz transgénico en la Sierra Norte de Oaxaca. Un estudio desde la mirada de las comunidades
Authors: García Jiménez Abraham , Toscana Aparicio Alejandra
Published: April 2019

El objetivo de este estudio es conocer la percepción social del maíz transgénico en cuatro comunidades de la Sierra Juárez, en Oaxaca. A partir de revisión documental y entrevistas a actores clave y a habitantes de las comunidades, se reunió y analizó información que muestra, entre los principales resultados, que la percepción de los habitantes de las comunidades está mediada por su forma de vida. Así mismo se encontró que la introducción del maíz transgénico se percibe como una amenaza para el maíz criollo y la milpa, debido a la dependencia que generaría hacia las empresas trasnacionales productoras de semillas transgénicas. La presente investigación implicó acercarnos a las comunidades de la zona, en cuyas milpas se descubrió contaminación por maíz transgénico en 2001. Esta investigación es relevante en el contexto del debate sobre la introducción de semillas de maíz transgénico y su siembra en México, porque da cuenta de las opiniones de campesinos que viven en el centro de origen del maíz.

Generalization of transport networks for multiscale mapping
Authors: Samsonov T. E. , Prokhorova E. A.
Published: April 2019

The article presents an approach to the generalization of transport networks on multiscale maps, based on the automated derivation of transport corridors. The logical connection between the concept of a polymagistral as a way of representing spatially conjugated sections of transport routes of various types and the process of generalization of a cartographic image is shown. A four-level specification of levels of detail has been developed for multiscale maps of transport networks, in which the position of polymagistral routes is placed at the third and fourth levels of detail. A formal definition of a polymagistral route and a compact polymagistral route is given. Based on the definition, a GIS technology for extracting polymagistral routes based on spatial integration of linear objects and overlay operations (spatial overlay) was proposed. Algorithmic description of the proposed technology has been developed and then implemented using Python programming language. Using the railways and roads from 1:1 000 000 and 1:2 500 000 digital general maps, the extraction of polymagistral routes was tested, followed by the analysis of similarity between expert and automatically obtained results. The influence of the search distance on the spatial coverage of the polymagistral routes has been investigated, and their geographical characteristics are given. The ways of development and improvement of the proposed approach are outlined in the conclusion.
Global warming, desertification/degradation, and droughts in arid regions
Authors: Zolotokrylin A. N.
Published: April 2019

Applications of the concept of climatic desertification are considered. They include an approach to a separate assessment of aridization and degradation of arid lands and an approach to identifying “islands” of desertification from satellite data. It is established that the contribution of anthropogenic land degradation to desertification is confirmed by a significant linear trend of interannual fluctuations of satellite indicators of pasture digression in all the studied arid areas of Russia and Mongolia in the period 2000–2016. Significant trends in the intensification of aridization were characteristic only for a part of arid areas. Because of the excessive pastoral digression in arid areas, “islands” of desertification of anthropogenic origin are formed. The lifetime of such “islands” is determined by human influence and fluctuations in the humidity of the climate. An additional factor in the short-term decline in the life of the “islands” in Mongolia is the catastrophic death of livestock as a result of natural disasters (drought, zuta). The “island” of desertification, of natural origin, is found in the reserved part of the Sonora Desert, where rainy seasons and droughts determine the spread of aridization. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of trends in climatic characteristics. The increase in air temperature occurred in all the areas under study. Negative trends in annual and seasonal precipitation dominated the steppe zone of Russia during the periods 1936–1960 and 1991–2016, when the surface temperature of the North Atlantic was above normal. On the contrary, positive precipitation trends, weakening aridization, were observed in the period 1961–1990, corresponding to a temperature below the norm.
Suspended sediment yield characteristics variability in rivers of Kamchatka krai
Authors: Kuksina L. V.
Published: April 2019

The regularities of spatiotemporal variability of suspended sediment yield characteristics were studied. Based on the analysis of difference-integral yield curves, it was found that most of the rivers in Kamchatka krai are characterized by the presence of two relatively long trends in the suspended sediment yield variability: an increase until the end of the 1970s–early 1980s, and its subsequent decrease. This regularity disturbs in rivers under the influence of volcanic eruptions, where the most significant increasing of sediment yield is observed after major eruptions. Existent maps of mean annual suspended sediment concentration and mean annual specific suspended sediment yield were significantly specified (18 instead 4 and 13 instead two zones were marked respectively). The map of grain-size distribution of suspended sediment was compiled (three zones was marked in region under study). Maximum values of mean annual specific suspended sediment yield (more than 500 t km-2 yr-1), suspended sediment concentration (more than 1000 g m-3) and grain-size of sediments are observed in water runoff of volcanic areas. Minimum values of suspended sediment concentration, specific suspended sediment yield, as well as grain-size of sediments characterized the mainland part of the krai.
Dynamics of the Regional Climatic Conditions over the Past 2000 Years on the Basis of Lithogeochemical Analysis of the Bottom Sediments of Lake Karakyol (Western Caucasus)
Authors: Alexandrin M. Yu. , Darin A. V. , Grachev A. M. , Solomina O. N.
Published: April 2019

Reference section of the bottom sediments of Lake Karakyol (Caucasus) is built based on the cores obtained during the 2010 and 2014 field works, taking into account radiocarbon dating and the data of analytical microstratigraphy. Using the methods of scanning micro-XRF, solid preparations of bottom sediments were scanned in 1 mm increments with simultaneous determination of the content of more than 25 rock-forming and microelements. When building the master-core, the profiles of changes in the content of terrigenous elements were taken into account. This made it possible to precisely combine the two cores and remove from the section the sediment intervals corresponding to the “one-time” events – terrigenous material injections. Comparison of instrumental data of regional meteorological observations in the period 1927–2010 with the time series of geochemical indicators showed the presence of a stable relationship of the composition of bottom sediments with the average 11-year temperatures. Approximation of transfer functions to the depth of core testing allowed constructing a paleoclimatic reconstruction of regional temperature for the last 2 millennia with a time resolution of 5–10 years.

Published: April 2019

Project management is a scientific discipline in terms of planning, organizing, managing (running and controlling) to be able to achieve project objectives. The role of project management in implementing a construction project is very important, considering the process of implementing construction projects is dynamic. The implementation plan for a project is often preceded by normative assumptions, whereas in the implementation process a lot of unexpected things occur that result in the delay of a job resulting in changes, ranging from weather, environmental social factors to the adjustment of contract volume. One of the compensation for the changes is an extension of the time of contract implementation, but this change certainly must be addressed technically and administratively because without a complete document the changes would certainly not be valid. The contract addendum is one of the valid proofs of a change, because the addendum although physically separate from the principal agreement will be legally addendum still attached to the principal agreement itself. This paper contains the mechanism and conditions for submitting an addendum for the extension of the implementation of the contract so that the addendum is eligible to be accepted in the applicable rules.Keywords: project management, addendum contract, extra time

Tulisan ini menjelaskan tentang makna pendidikan Islam yang harus diajarkan dalam keluarga, urgensinya dan aspek-aspek pendidikan Islam apa saja yang seharusnya diajarkan kepada anak-anak.  Dalam hal ini yang bertanggung jawab akan hal tersebut adalah orang tua, karena anak adalah amanah yang harus dijaga, dididik dan dibimbing agar dia bisa menjalani kehidupan yang sesuai  dengan ajaran Islam dan bisa memperoleh kebahagian di akhirat nantinya. Setidaknya ada tiga aspek penting yang seharusnya ditanamkan orang tua sejak dini bagi anak-anaknya, yaitu aspek aqidah, ibadah dan akhlak. Aspek aqidah berkaitan dengan keimanan kepada Allah dan Rasul-Nya, penerapannya yaitu dengan cara mengajarkan keyakinan yang benar tentang adanya Allah sebagai pencipta. Aspek ibadah, berkaitan dengan ketundukan makhluk untuk menyembah Allah yang maha Esa, ini bisa diterapkan dengan membiasakan anak melakukan sholat lima waktu, mengajarkan anak baca al-Qur’an, memberi shadaqah dan lain-lain. Kemudian Aspek akhlak berkaitan dengan adab, sopan santun dan berprilaku baik. Penerapannya melalui keteladanan orang tua baik ketika berbicara, melakukan sesuatu dan lain-lain, dan juga bisa diterapkan dengan melalui pembiasaan, misalnya membiasakan masuk rumah dengan mengucapkan salam, makan dengan tangan kanan dan tidak sambil berdiri dan lain sebagainya.

Published: April 2019

Ho Chi Minh City has the largest system of river ports and sea ports in Vietnam, approximately 41 operating ports with the largest cargo volume of import and export goods. Due to the high density of river and sea traffic, there are many potential risks of oil spills due to collisions and accidents of water transport vehicles. Therefore, mapping shoreline environment is essential for the oil spill preparedness and response to identify highly contaminated areas and sensitive areas that need to be prioritized for timely prevention and protection. The objective of the study is to establish map of shoreline environment for the oil spill preparedness and response in Can Gio District based on the ESI guideline of NOAA (2002). The map consisted of three components: (1) shoreline classifications, (2) biological resources, and (3) human resources. The research result shows that Can Gio District is a highly sensitive area with oil spills due to the appearance of the mangrove ecosystem and this area grows salt water and brackish water aquaculture such as clam, oyster, cage fish, lipopenaeus (white shrimp), and tourist attractions like beaches, ecotourism destinations. In general, Can Gio is identified as a high sensitive region that needs timely measures to mitigate impacts of oil spill on natural environment and local socio-economy.
ПРИНЦИП ЦІЛІСНОЇ ОРГАНІЗАЦІЇ ІНТЕЛЕКТУАЛЬНИХ СИСТЕМ
Authors: Доценко Серій Ілліч
Published: April 2019

The antinomy of the division of the intellectual system into parts has been formed, namely: the intellectual system is an organized whole, which is formed from at least two parts; for an intelligent system, as an organized whole, it is impossible to divide into a controlling part (control system) and a part of which is controlled. It has been established that the antinomy of dividing an intelligent system into parts is generated by the fact that, traditionally, the control system and the control object are considered separately. Therefore, it is considered the system, and not an organized whole. The role of the theory of functional systems in the development of cybernetic systems as intellectual systems is defined. This theory is the basis for the development of intelligent systems A. V. Chechkinim, K. A. Pupkov, and other authors. On the other hand, M. I. Meltzer develops the theory of dialogue systems for managing production enterprises, the basis of which is the mathematical theory of systems. It is shown that the functional representation architectures for these systems are similar. The similarity is determined on the basis of the task approach. On the one hand, there is a mutual non-recognition of the results of scientific schools of physical and technical cybernetics, and on the other hand, there is a similarity of the results obtained. It has been established that the methodological basis of the holistic approach is the task approach to the formation of a solving system, developed in the theory of dialogue management of production. To do this, it is necessary to include the “Activity to get the result” block in the solving system in order to turn it into an intellectual system. The methodological basis of a systems approach is a functional approach to the formation of systems. The main lesson of the classical cybernetics crisis, regarding the organizational principle for two parts of an organized whole, is to establish a dialectical unity of concepts in the form of a “general” concept and a “concrete” concept for problem-solving results in the control system and control object. Thus, a dialectically organized whole is formed. The article also analyzes the impact of the study of intelligent systems on the development of the methodological foundations of the Industry 4.0 platform. The next task that needs to be solved is the formation of the principle of functional self-organization, which is the basis for the formation of a mechanism for ensuring consistency between the results of solving problems in parts of a dialectically organized whole

Published: April 2019

In connection with the popularization of the use of IT technologies, traditional teaching methods are increasingly changing e-learning approaches. E-learning is a learning system using information and electronic technologies. E-learning on a hyperconvergent platform can be viewed as a complex organizational hierarchical system, which the article considers as a kind of mathematical object. However, the resources of the e-learning system are limited and for its successful implementation, there is a need to ensure its maximum use at all levels of the system. So, as an essential element of the entire system, there must be a rapid redistribution of resources of the university e-learning system on a hyperconvergent platform. The authors of the article analyzed the existing problems of systems with a hierarchical structure and possible solutions to these problems. The paper discusses the sets of goals and objectives facing the governing bodies of the hierarchical system and are presented as a set of graphs of system goals and objectives. It was found that the process of achieving the main goal of the system poses external obstacles that are mainly situational in nature and not stochastic. And so before the governing bodies of management, there are many objects and tasks to eliminate deviations. At the upper level of management of the hierarchical system is the management of a hyperconvergent structure, at the lower level of management is the management of e-learning widgets. The subject of the research is the electronic educational resources of university e-learning. The aim of the article is to develop a method for the rapid redistribution of e-learning resources on a hyperconvergent platform. Findings. The article proposes a method for constructing a graphical model of the process of functioning of the university e-learning system, deployed on a hyperconvergent platform, based on the problems and goals of analyzing the structure of the system. A graph of consensus goals and objectives was created that considers learning resources available. A method for allocating resources of various types was also proposed. To assess the effectiveness of the resource allocation process, the “validity” criterion was chosen and a probability indicator was calculated.
Progressive Localization using Mobile Anchor in Wireless Sensor Network
Authors: Kumar Ajay , Kumar Paul Raj
Published: April 2019

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is employed to gather and forward information to the destination. It is very crucial to know the location of the event or collected information. This location information may be obtained using GPS or localiza-tion technique in wireless sensor networks. Randomly deployed WSN needs a large amount of GPS-enabled sensor nodes for localization, this necessitates progressive approach. However, nodes with sparse connectivity remain unlocalized. In this paper, a progressive mobile anchor based technique is proposed for node localization. Initially, sensor nodes are localized using anchors in the neighborhood, then these localized nodes progressively localized remaining nodes using multilateration. Mobile anchor node moves randomly in field and broadcast position information. Its localized nodes with sparse connectivity. Simulation results show that proposed approach localize all sensor nodes with good accuracy.

Efficiency of training programs aimed at agility development (the case of hand-to-hand fighting)
Authors: Nikitenko Aleksey
Published: April 2019

Objective. Substantiation of the expediency of using special exercise complexes aimed at agility development in training process of those engaged in hand-to-hand fighting.
Мethods and organization. This goal achievement was provided by setting a 6-month pedagogical experiment aimed at identifying the effectiveness of special training program focused on the development of agility and coordination through the use of training means specific for hand-to-hand combat, characterized by increased coordination complexity and the presence of a “surprise factor”. The efficiency of recommended training program was determined by means of special tests – open for coordination assessment and two closed ones – for agility estimation.
Results. As a result of a 6-month pedagogical experiment, high efficiency of short-term specific programs of motor actions for agility development was revealed. Even a relatively small amount of training means of high coordination complexity with the presence of a “surprise factor” (43 h of 260) led to significant increase in the ability to effective motor activity in unexpected situations and under time pressure conditions.
Conclusions. Теchnical skills and physical fitness with agility and coordination being its constituents represent an integral complex, in which the rational techniques determine the requirements of physical fitness, whereas the motor capacities provide conditions for execution of techniques and motor actions. The approach adopted in the special literature and practice in which the development of agility and coordination is a side effect of the process of technico-tactical improvement, training and competitive bouts suffers from one-sidedness and insufficient efficiency.
Keywords: hand-to-hand fighting, agility, coordination, motor capacities.
Static dynamic stability of the body of rhythmic gymnastics female athletes at the stage of specialized basic training
Authors: Kovalenko Yana , Boloban Viktor
Published: April 2019

Objective. To assess biomechanical measures of static dynamic stability of the body of rhythmic gymnastics female athletes in the basic balances at the stage of specialized basic training. Methods. Theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature, methodological and practical experience of the trainers; method of expert assessments using video analysis of the technique of performing basic balances; stabiloanalyzer "Stabilan 01-2" to record the movements of the common center of pressure (COP) of the feet on the support, i.e. the coordinates at different time points that reflect the features of static dynamic stability. Three basic balance tests were performed. The study involved young female gymnasts of the Republican Complex Children and Youth Sports School "Avangard" (Kуiv) aged 10-14 years (n = 30), of which 20 athletes have the rank of Candidate for Master of Sport and 10 gymnasts have the rank of First-Class Sportsman. Results. It has been found that, at the stage of specialized basic training, female athletes in rhythmic gymnastics, along with a stable demonstration of competitive compositions, have technical errors that are associated with an insufficient level of development of sensorimotor coordination, orientation in space and time, and static dynamic stability of the body. Indicators of biomechanical analysis of stabilograms, which were recorded during the performance of the basic balances by the subjects, show that stability control is achieved both through macro and micro-oscillations of the body, as well as the controlled ratio of the trajectory lengths of the common center of pressure on the support along the frontal and sagittal line. In some gymnasts, when performing basic tests, displacements along frontal and sagittal lines approached the ratio of 1:1 that indicates the effective formation of a system of symmetric motor actions for the control of static dynamic stability. Conclusion. On the basis of individual measures of static dynamical stability of the body of rhythmic gymnastics female athletes at the stage of specialized basic training, an instructional program of exercises should be developed that will be aimed at development and improvement of static dynamic stability of the body using the technology of biological feedback in the system gymnast–stabilograph.

La economía de EE UU, diez años después de la crisis
Authors: Heras-Recuero Laura , L'Hotellerie-Fallois Pilar , Párraga Rodríguez Susana
Published: April 2019

Este artículo analiza la evolución económica en Estados Unidos en la década transcurrida desde el inicio de la crisis económica y financiera de 2008. La acumulación de desequilibrios durante el período previo a la crisis precipitó la mayor contracción económica desde la II Guerra Mundial. La recuperación posterior, a pesar de haber sido muy prolongada, también ha sido mucho más moderada que recuperaciones anteriores, y las políticas de demanda han jugado un papel poco equilibrado en la misma, con la política monetaria como instrumento de apoyo principal, frente al bloqueo de la política fiscal. La percepción de una recuperación incompleta, sumada a cambios estructurales y desequilibrios sociales y geográficos, algunos de los cuales se venían gestando desde antes de la crisis, ha servido de caldo de cultivo para un cambio político de gran calado, con la llegada de Trump a la presidencia. Ello ha supuesto un giro radical en aspectos clave de la política económica, como la propia política fiscal o la política comercial, que afectará al futuro económico del país y está teniendo ya repercusiones de alcance global.

Finalmente se presentan las evaluaciones de contrafactuales, donde el sesgo de selección es un elemento de gran importancia, lo que afecta a la utilización de diseños experimentales o cuasi experimentales.
La "complejidad" de la regulación española ¿cómo medirla? ¿qué impacto económico tiene?
Authors: Mora-Sanguinetti Juan S.
Published: April 2019

Las economías desarrolladas están sujetas a regulación. Esta tiene como objetivo mitigar los fallos de mercado y los costes de transacción, pero si no está bien diseñada, podría tener impactos negativos en la eficiencia. Uno de los motivos de ineficiencia es que su mera utilización resulte «compleja» para los agentes económicos. Este artículo hace referencia, por tanto, a la «forma» y no al contenido de la regulación. Así, se repasan las técnicas modernas desarrolladas para medir la complejidad (que se relaciona con la cantidad y ambigüedad de la normativa). La producción normativa española se habría multiplicado por cuatro desde 1978.

Better Regulation - The UK experience
Authors: Bishop Ian
Published: April 2019

El sistema better regulation de Reino Unido es líder mundial en la entrega de buenas prácticas regulatorias y la mejora de los resultados positivos de la regulación. El próximo desafío consiste en refinar cómo responde al ritmo creciente del cambio tecnológico y cómo incentiva una mayor innovación. La regulación puede permitir que las condiciones del mercado y los incentivos para la innovación alienten y recompensen prácticas, procesos o modelos mejorados, y que al mismo tiempo apoyen las decisiones de inversión. Crear estas condiciones está en el centro de lo que significa better regulation: desarrollar un enfoque que permita y cree las condiciones de mercado correctas, incluso asegurando que se implementen las protecciones y las prácticas reglamentarias adecuadas.
Las diferentes aproximaciones metodológicas para la prevención y detección de problemas regulatorios en el ámbito económico
Authors: Álvarez Suárez Marisa , Domínguez Viera Javier
Published: April 2019

La creciente complejidad de las actividades económicas requiere de un esfuerzo de las Administraciones por mejorar la comprensión de la realidad a regular y por evaluar los resultados de su intervención. Para el desarrollo de esta aproximación de buena regulación económica es necesario contar con metodologías de análisis que parten de la Administración, del usuario o del análisis del dato microeconómico. Es necesario continuar con la profundización de estas metodologías y el uso complementario de todas ellas.
CONTAÇÃO DE HISTÓRIAS E LETRAMENTO LITERÁRIO: CONTRIBUIÇÕES PARA A APRENDIZAGEM DO EDUCANDO COM DEFICIÊNCIA INTELECTUAL
Authors: De Oliveira Henrique Adriana , Vieira da Silva do Amparo Flávia
Published: April 2019

Dentre os muitos desafios impostos pela educação do século XXI, a inclusão dos educandos com deficiência intelectual tem se revelado uma preocupação à parte, pois implica ações que vão além da garantia ao acesso, mas instiga mudanças de paradigmas de como a escola acolhe e trabalha com as diferenças, sem recorrer à exclusão, sendo impulsionada a rever seu currículo e sua metodologia, para que sejam oferecidas oportunidades de aprendizagem e participação que qualifiquem a presença dos educandos nas classes comuns. Diante do exposto e ciente do desafio da educação inclusiva, o presente texto tem por objetivo apresentar as reflexões preliminares de uma pesquisa, em andamento, sobre uma proposta de aprendizagem e participação do educando com deficiência, envolvendo os conceitos de Letramento Literário utilizando-se como recurso mediador a Contação de Histórias. O estudo está sendo realizado em uma Sala de Recursos Multifuncionais de uma escola pública do município do Rio de Janeiro. Como referencial teórico foi adotada a perspectiva sócio-histórica, e como metodologia foi empregada a pesquisa qualitativa com enfoque na pesquisa-ação.

MÚSICA NA INFÂNCIA: CANTAR E CONSTRUIR CONHECIMENTO MATEMÁTICO
Authors: Alencar Edvonete Souza de , Nogueira Rosemeire Messa de Souza , Silva Claudemir Dantes da
Published: April 2019

Este artigo apresenta um curso de formação continuada realizada com professores de Educação Infantil no projeto de extensão intitulado “Música na infância: cantar e contar na Matemática” da Faculdade de Educação, da Universidade Federal da Grande Dourados. A formação atendeu a catorze docentes de uma instituição municipal de Educação Infantil do interior do Mato Grosso do Sul. O projeto teve como objetivo incentivar os docentes a utilizar a música para desenvolver o conhecimento Matemático na Educação Infantil e aprimorar atividades que já são realizadas na instituição, para que possa haver a articulação entre a Música e o conhecimento Matemático. Como referencial teórico  utilizamos os documentos nacionais da Educação Infantil e alguns teóricos da área. Esse trabalho mostrou as possibilidades de desenvolvimento do pensamento lógico matemático e construção de registros reflexivos e de atividades a serem direcionadas às diferentes idades na Educação Infantil.
A prática da leitura: hábitos e suportes
Authors: Pagnan Celso Leopoldo , Lima Denilson Teixeira , Mustafa Rennan Herbert
Published: April 2019

A leitura é uma prática advinda da época da invenção da escrita, há cerca de cinco mil anos. De lá para cá, foram criados suportes para impressão dos textos e alterado o modo e os objetivos com que se leem textos. As duas últimas grandes mudanças se deram com a invenção da imprensa com tipos móveis por Gutenberg em meados do século XV e a publicação de textos em suporte digital, utilizando-se de diferentes gadgets, desde fins do século XX. A presente pesquisa parte do princípio de que mesmo os chamados nativos digitais não têm ainda o hábito pleno, por assim dizer, de ler livros no novo suporte e que isso se explicaria tanto pela prática pouco frequente da leitura em geral, bem como por haver a necessidade de um novo aprendizado para explorar, de modo significativo, a leitura digital. Não apenas a utilização das ferramentas, mas também estratégias específicas para a realização da leitura. Baseamo-nos em estudos diversos e utilizamos como método questionário aplicado em discentes do curso de graduação em direito de uma universidade particular. Em conclusão, podemos afirmar que existe a necessidade de um aprendizado efetivo de novas estratégias de leitura a fim de que se realize a leitura em ambientes digitais com maior proveito.
As condições de trabalho dos professores de educação infantil em Santa Catarina, Brasil
Authors: Conde Soraya Franzoni
Published: April 2019

Este artigo tem por objetivo compreender as condições de trabalho dos professores de educação infantil em oito municípios do Estado de Santa Catarina, Brasil. Ele decorre do projeto de pesquisa intitulado “As múltiplas determinações da formação continuada de professores de educação infantil em Santa Catarina: trabalho, gênero e formação”, que busca compreender as dificuldades dos docentes da educação infantil em frequentarem e permanecerem matriculados no Curso de Especialização em Docência na Educação Infantil (CEDEI) da UFSC.  Parte de problemática constatada durante as primeiras semanas de aula do curso quando um grande número de desistências ocorreram. Em termos metodológicos, foi aplicado um questionário com 80 profissionais da educação infantil e recolhidos depoimentos de 14 professores desistentes do curso. Entre os principais resultados, destacamos que as condições de trabalho dos professores de educação infantil são um dos aspectos que inviabilizam a formação continuada docente e tornam a desistência uma consequência.
