Authors: Tatlibal Pinar , Kutlay Emine , Oral Onur
Published: November 2021

Background: Children born at the beginning of the year may be cognitively, emotionally, and physically more advantageous than those born at the end of the year. Aim: This study aims to determine whether there is a relative age effect (RAE) on the total scores and its components of the gymnasts in their routines, competing in the 1st Rhythmic Gymnastics Junior World Championships Individual All-Around Ranking-Apparatus Qualification in 2019. Methods: 138 gymnasts from 61 countries participated in this competition and 61 gymnasts competed in each apparatus. The total scores (TS) and its components in gymnasts' competition routines were analyzed according to gymnasts' age groups (13, 14, and 15 years old) and period of birth [Group I (those born in the first six months of the year), Group II (those born in the last six months of the year)]. Differences and percentages of change between the two periods were examined. A total of 732 scores (Difficulty, Execution, and Total Scores) were evaluated. Descriptive statistics and the One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) Test analysis were used for statistical evaluation. Results: When the TS and its components were examined in all age groups and all routines, no significant difference was observed between Group I and Group II in terms of RAE. Conclusion: It is thought that considering the RAE in talent selection and orientation programs, participation in sports activities and performance evaluation may be useful for athletes, coaches, and administrators. Keywords: Rhythmic gymnastics, competition performance scores, relative age effect, gymnast

Authors: Rehmani Duriya , Bano Aliya , Saleem Samina , Taha Tashmina , Fatima Kaneez
Published: November 2021

Background: Hysterectomy is the most commonly performed gynecological procedure. It can affect female sexual functions in a number of ways mainly because of disruption of local nerve and blood supply and intimate anatomical relationship of pelvic organs. We intend to evaluate the effect of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) on female sexual function by comparing their preoperative and postoperative sexual performances using female sexual function index (FSFI). Materials and methods: The study was carried out in 50 hysterectomised patients over the duration of one year. Their sexual functions were assessed preoperatively prior to their admission in hospital. Then once hysterectomy is done, their postoperative sexual performances were assessed over the last four weeks period at least four months after their hysterectomy, using FSFI. Results: Out of 50 patients, 39 patients had undergone TLH with ovarian conservation and 11 had undergone TLH with bilateral salpingoophorectomy (BSO). Out of 50 participants, 27 had scores of less than 26 using FSFI, but after hysterectomy, 14 participants had scores of less than 26. The overall score using FSFI was improved from 24.26±2.2 to 28.11±2.2 (p-value <0.0001). Conclusion: Women can be positively reassured that hysterectomy performed for benign reasons does not negatively affect sexuality. TLH is less invasive in terms of causing damage to various pelvic nerves and vessels and hence causes less-to-no effect on female sexual functions.

Published: November 2021

Background and Aim: Chronic kidney disease patients are more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis accelerated rate and variety of other factors, of which they exhibit the abnormality of lipid profile atherogonic characteristics. The current study aim was to investigate the lipid profile abnormalities pattern in non-diabetic chronic kidney disease patients and to evaluate the association between the lipid profile alteration extent and renal impairment degree. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 118 chronic disease patients in the Department of Nephrology, Shaikh Zayed Hospital Lahore during the period, from August 2020 to May 2021. All the patients were carefully chosen based on their eligibility criteria. A history was taken, clinical investigation was performed, and biochemical tests were conducted. Blood was drawn for lipid profile analysis after 9 hours abstaining. The Institutional Ethical Committee approved the study and informed consent was taken from each individual. Chronic Kidney Disease as defined by the KDOQI Criteria Kidney damage for three months, defined as functional kidney abnormalities with or without decreased GFR, manifested by either: Pathological abnormalities; kidney damage markers such as changes in blood or urine composition, or abnormalities in imaging tests. GFR of less than 60 mL/min/1.73m2 for 3 months, with or without kidney damage. SPSS version 20 was used for data analysis. Results: The study included 118 patients, 79 (66.9%) of whom were males and 39 (33.1%) were females. The mean age of patients was 49.46 + 9.35 years with an age range of 28 to 78 years. Stage 5CKD patients were 23 who underwent dialysis. Chronic kidney disease patients had lower HDL and higher levels of triglyceride whereas, with chronic kidney disease stage progression, the HDL and TGL levels increased. In both stages 4 and 5 CKD, there is a positive correlation between triglyceride levels and serum phosphorous and TGL and calcium had inverse correlation. Dialysis patients' lipid profiles do not differ from those of non-dialysis patients. Conclusion: Our study found that patients with non-diabetic CKD have high triglyceride levels, low HDL, and had LDL and total cholesterol unchanged levels. As the CKD stage advances and GFR declines, triglyceride increases, and HDL decreases. TGL and serum phosphorous had a positive association in chronic kidney disease stage 4 and 5 whereas TGL and serum calcium had an inverse correlation in stages 4 and 5. Moreover, no significant difference between dialysed and non-dialysed chronic kidney disease patients’ lipid profiles was observed.

Published: November 2021

Background and Aim: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the major sources of health problems in developing countries. An effective strategy for tuberculosis treatment can be evaluated with key indicators known as TB control program with their treatment outcomes. Hence, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors associated with the treatment outcome of pulmonary tuberculosis in patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 129 Tuberculosis patients in the department of Pulmonology, Gulab Devi Hospital Lahore from November 2020 to April 2021. Demographic details, clinical examination, and treatment outcomes were evaluated. All the data were extracted from the hospital medical records. Successful treatment outcomes predictors were assessed using bivariate and multivariate regression. SPSS version 20 was used for data analysis. Results: Of the total 129 tuberculosis patients, 59 (46%) were male and 70 (54%) were females. The overall mean age was 26.54±5.62 years. The overall prevalence of successful treatment rate was 113 (87.6%). Out of 113, the prevalence of cured and complete treatment patients was 57 (50.4%) and 56 (49.6%) respectively. Based on logistic regression models, various parameters with their respective adjustment odds ratio (AOR) were as follows; age 21-40 years (AOR= 2.67, 95% CI=1.32-6.12, p-value=0.003), treatment category (AOR=4.62, 95% CI=1.12-16.74, p-value=0.027), and smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis (AOR=3.47; 95% CI=1.76-6.69, p-value<0.001) were significantly related with treatment outcomes. Conclusion: Our study reported that the overall prevalence of successful treatment was 87.6%. Though, the rate of overall successful treatment was found satisfactory, but, to meet international standard strategy for tuberculosis, still, improvement needs to be achieved. Age, treatment category, and tuberculosis types were significantly correlated with treatment outcomes. Keywords: Pulmonary Tuberculosis; Treatment Outcomes; TB Smears

Authors: Taha Lodhi Muhammad , Rizwan Muhammad , Akram Muhammad Nauman
Published: November 2021

Background and Aim: Esophageal carcinoma is the 8thmost common type of cancer worldwide and is considered a leading cause of cancer mortality. Cancer of the esophagus is one of the most lethal of all cancers. The esophagus is clearly visible on CT images. Over the last decade, computerized tomography (CT) tools have qualified the carcinoma early finding, thereby lowering mortality rates. The advent of multidetector computerized tomography (MDCT) scanners has been a boon to clinical imaging practice. The aim of the present study was to assess the role of computed tomography imaging in esophagus carcinoma staging and detection. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 82 esophagus carcinoma patients in the department of Radiology, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital Lahore from July 2020 to June 2021. Individuals who presented with esophagus carcinoma signs and symptoms were enrolled in this study. Esophagus carcinoma was confirmed based on histopathological examination (HPE) reports and postoperative biopsy confirmed the CT findings. Data analysis was done with SPSS version 20. Results: Of the total 82 esophagus carcinoma patients, 44 (54%) were male and 38 (46%) were female. The overall mean age was 45.53±7.3 years with an age range from 18 years to 80 years. The incidence of esophagus carcinoma was more prevalent in the age group of 40 to 60 years. Male patients are more prone to esophagus carcinoma compared to females. The carcinoma in most cases affected the esophagus lower third and middle compared to the upper third. The prevalence of stage patients was as follows; T1 and T2 had 22 (26.8%) stage patients, T3 had 46 (56.1%) stage patients, and T4 had 14 (17.1%). About 52 (64%) patients had asymmetrical wall thickness while 30 (36%) had symmetrical wall thickness. Conclusion: Preoperative esophageal carcinoma staging is significantly aided by computed tomography. Imaging modality CT scans have improved esophageal carcinoma treatment and operative resection rate. As a result, CT is a non-invasive and quick imaging tool for detecting lymphadenopathies, distant metastases, and tumors.

Correlación entre satisfacción corporal y bullying en estudiantes de primaria
Authors: García Albarrán Aixa Nallely
Published: November 2021

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar si existe correlación entre el Bullying y la satisfacción corporal, variables de gran interés y relevancia para los educadores. Esto se aborda desde un enfoque cuantitativo, mediante una investigación con estudiantes de una escuela primaria urbana de quinto y sexto grado, a los que se les aplican dos instrumentos: el Cuestionario para la Exploración del Bullying y el Test de satisfacción con la imagen corporal. Los resultados se procesaron estadísticamente mediante el índice de correlación de Pearson. Se encontró que la percepción de los estudiantes es que casi nunca participan en situaciones de bullying y exponen una alta satisfacción con la imagen corporal, además, no se encontró relación estadísticamente significativa entre las variables. El estudio muestra que la imagen corporal que un individuo tiene de sí mismo no depende de su complexión física sino de cómo se percibe a sí mismo; además, sobresale que el autorreconocimiento como participante en el bullying, como víctima o agresor, representa un riesgo para la estabilidad emocional del sujeto
Saúde suplementar: os benefícios e desafios sobre o atendimento home care, sob a perspectiva da jurisprudência do STJ
Authors: Liberato Francisco Mauro Ferreira , Leitão Rômulo Guilherme
Published: November 2021

A Saúde Suplementar é um assunto relativamente novo, de induvidosa relevância e que interessa a toda sociedade. No caso brasileiro, alguns usuários conseguem optar por plano privado de saúde e, a partir daí, surgem algumas necessidades especiais, como o home care, cujo atendimento domiciliar, algumas vezes, é negado administrativamente. E esta situação produz uma judicialização da questão, em que o órgão julgador é provocado a decidir, de forma justa e equilibrada, entre o direito do segurado e o dever legal e contratual das operadoras que atuam no ramo. Com isso, propõe-se uma discussão que analise os benefícios e desafios sobre o home care enfrentados pelo Judiciário, especialmente à vista dos precedentes do Superior Tribunal de Justiça, considerando no estudo a ausência de uma disciplina legal sobre a matéria em estudo. Para tanto, será desenvolvida uma pesquisa bibliográfica, teórica e documental, com abordagem qualitativa, referenciada em obras e, notadamente, em decisões do STJ. Como resultado da pesquisa, espera-se levantar informações úteis que contribuam para uma solução sensata em relação às demandas judiciais que versem sobre home care com vistas à concretização do direito fundamental à saúde, mas que sejam procedentes, sob o aspecto jurisprudencial, que compreende questões legais, contratuais, financeiras e técnicas.
História da educação chilena: um estudo das transformações educacionais de 1970-1973 e seus reflexos na Revolta dos Pinguins de 2006
Authors: Wanishi Maria Miduri Nodak , Rosa Dayane de Freitas Colombo , Silva Roseli Gall do Amaral da , Melo José Joaquim Pereira
Published: November 2021

O presente artigo pretende analisar a história da educação chilena no período de 1970-1973, mais especificamente a proposta de Revolução de Allende (1970-1973) e seus impactos nas reformas educacionais ocorridas no Chile após o golpe militar, assim como sua relação com a Revolta dos Pinguins. As mudanças estruturais - como a reforma agrária e a nacionalização dos bancos, minas e indústrias - definiram as transformações sociais no Chile, juntamente com a luta entre a Revolução e a contrarrevolução, na curta era do presidente Allende (1970-1973). Com o golpe militar, as políticas educacionais foram marcadas por reformas neoliberais e a partir de 1990, com a restauração democrática no país, manifestações ocorreram, dentre elas, a “Revolta dos Pinguins”, uma mobilização estudantil ocorrida em 2006. A questão norteadora é investigar quais foram as bases que fundamentaram esses movimentos estudantis e qual a sua contribuição para que o Chile se tornasse um país de referência na reforma do Ensino Médio, na América Latina. O que se busca, portanto, é compreender de forma histórica, o movimento dialético e articulado entre a proposta de Allende e a Revolta dos Pinguins e suas contribuições para o processo educacional chileno.

Este artigo parte da análise dos documentos da Real Mesa Censória – em particular, os pedidos feitos à censura para ler, possuir e comercializar os livros proibidos de circular no Império Português, sejam os listados no Index romano, sejam os dos editais da segunda metade do século XVIII feitos pela própria Real Mesa Censória. Nos requerimentos em que solicitam o privilégio de poderem comprar ou ler obras proibidas, os requerentes falam de si, tentando apresentar-se como “doutos”, a quem a leitura não será perniciosa, ao mesmo tempo em que dão as razões pelas quais desejam fazer tais leituras – em geral uma explicação sobre a necessidade de adquirir “instrução”, ou “educação, mas também de repudiar as ideias contidas nas obras proibidas.
Magnan e a classificação das patologias psiquiátricas
Authors: Caponi Sandra
Published: November 2021

A teoria da degeneração teve influência considerável na psiquiatria dos séculos XIX e XX. Essa teoria começou a articular-se na segunda metade do século XIX na França, fundamentalmente com os estudos de Morel e de seu discípulo Valentin Magnan. Analisamos aqui a construção, consolidação e impacto desse programa de pesquisa a partir das reflexões que Magnan dedica às patologias heredodegenerativas incluídas na sua classificação das doenças psiquiátricas. Esse modo de classificar os sofrimentos e comportamentos torna possível que os pequenos desvios de conduta, os estigmas físicos e psíquicos, e em menor medida os delírios insignificantes, possam começar a serem considerados como patologias ou como signos anunciadores de alienação mental.

Beberapa kajian lalu menunjukkan bahawa terdapat isu keciciran pendidikan dalam kalangan Orang Asli dan ianya merupakan satu permasalahan yang tidak pernah hilang dalam konteks pendidikan di Malaysia. Mereka yang sering dikaitkan dengan kemunduran modenisasi dan tidak berpengetahuan tinggi adalah disebabkan beberapa faktor. Antaranya adalah sifat mereka yang tidak mahu memajukan diri sendiri dengan menganggap pendidikan bukanlah sesuatu yang penting untuk kehidupan mereka di pendalaman hutan. Faktor lain yang berhubung kait adalah murid Orang Asli adalah mereka sukar untuk memahami kurikulum standard dan didapati bahawa sukatan pelajaran di sekolah tidak sesuai dengan pemahaman intelektual mereka. Oleh itu, bagi memudahkan kefahaman mereka terutama semasa proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran pendekatan baharu harus dilakukan iaitu menerusi Sekolah Rimba. Sekolah Rimba yang berasaskan pembelajaran persekitaran luar kelas terbukti memberi kesan yang lebih baik terhadap pembelajaran murid-murid di luar negara. Menerusi Sekolah Rimba pengkaji mencadangkan agar pelaksanaan pembangunan modul berasaskan pengetahuan peribumi bagi mengekalkan kelestarian masyarakat Orang Asli perlu dibangunkan kerana bersesuaian dengan kefahaman yang mudah serta berkaitan dengan persekitaran hidup masyarakat Orang Asli.

O controle de constitucionalidade e a atuação do Supremo Tribunal Federal na proteção das minorias: análise crítica da ADC nº 41 (cotas raciais em concursos públicos)
Authors: Santos Lima Sabrina , Hennig Leal Mônia Clarissa
Published: November 2021

Considerando os recentes debates acerca das políticas públicas relativas a ações afirmativas, como é o caso das cotas raciais, questiona-se: como se dá a atuação do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) no que tange à proteção das minorias, tomando-se como base a decisão proferida na ADC nº 41? Utiliza-se, na estruturação e organização do texto, o método dedutivo, baseado em pesquisa bibliográfica e em análise de caso. Para tanto, inicialmente são tecidos apontamentos quanto ao controle de constitucionalidade e de sua função estratégica na ordem jurídico-constitucional, para, então, averiguar-se os desdobramentos das políticas de ações afirmativas e o papel do STF na proteção das minorias; por fim, analisa-se criticamente a decisão recentemente proferida no âmbito da ADC nº 41, que se refere à constitucionalidade das cotas para negros em concursos públicos. Conclui-se que há a adoção de uma postura de proteção às minorias, por parte do STF, o qual adota um conceito de minorias não relacionado com a questão numérica, mas sim com o reconhecimento de um grupo de pessoas estigmatizado histórica e socialmente, vítima de uma discriminação estrutural e que, portanto, merece ser objeto de proteção por parte de políticas públicas de inclusão social e de não-discriminação.
O STF e os parâmetros para o controle dos atos do poder legislativo: limitações do argumento das questões interna corporis
Authors: Barcellos Ana Paula De
Published: November 2021

O controle judicial de atos praticados pelo Poder Legislativo é um tema especialmente sensível das relações entre a Constituição, jurisdição constitucional e democracia. O STF invoca com frequência a figura das questões “interna corporis” para concluir pela eventual impossibilidade de revisão judicial de atos do Legislativo. O objetivo deste texto é contribuir para identificar o que são – e o que não são – questões “interna corporis” por meio do exame da seguinte pergunta. A qualidade de “interna corporis” de uma questão decorreria de ela envolver a interpretação de normas regimentais das Casas Legislativas, como sugerido pelo Ministro Relator no Tema 1.120 de Repercussão Geral? A jurisprudência do STF examinada revela que a resposta a essa pergunta é negativa. A despeito de afirmações genéricas contidas em decisões reproduzindo essa assertiva, em diversos casos o STF decidiu controlar atos do Legislativo a despeito de a hipótese envolver a interpretação de normas regimentais. A jurisprudência examinada sugere que o critério utilizado pelo STF para definir sua intervenção é a presença de elementos constitucionais que a Corte entendeu relevantes e que deviam ser protegidos, independentemente da necessidade de interpretação de normas regimentais.
O Congresso e os 30 anos da Constituição: análise dos players políticos no processo de emendas constitucionais entre 2015 e 2018
Authors: De Souza Depieri Matheus , Zaiden Benvindo Juliano
Published: November 2021

O presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo analisar a interação do Legislativo - especialmente da Câmara dos Deputados - com a Constituição, com foco no processo de emendas constitucionais durante a 55ª Legislatura (2015-2018). Por meio de uma análise empírica, que buscou categorizar todas as PECs propostas pelos deputados, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo identificar quais são as áreas, temas ou princípios que estão mais constantemente sujeitos a propostas de alteração, uma vez que a identificação dessas “áreas sensíveis” da Constituição pode servir como um parâmetro para melhor compreender a relação do Legislativo com a Carta Magna brasileira. Como resultado, as matérias mais comuns identificadas foram aquelas relacionadas ao direito penal, às alterações do funcionamento e da estrutura do Poder Judiciário, às mudanças para privilegiar carreiras policiais ou militares e às alterações na distribuição de recursos entre os entes federados. Após a análise dos dados obtidos, o artigo foi concluído com uma análise do papel da 55ª legislatura para a ascensão da direita iliberal após 2014, analisando possíveis sinais do chamado “fim da direita envergonhada” nas propostas de emenda à Constituição.

ABSTRACT. Orissa was battered by a Super Cyclonic Storm on 29 October, 1999 that made landfall near Paradip (43976).  The estimated maximum wind speed reached 260-270 kmph in the core area which produced a huge storm surge that led to sea-level elevation of more than 20 feet and took away valuable lives of nearly 10,000 people.  It was accompanied with exceptionally heavy rains which led to devastating floods and cut off the State from the rest of the country.  An attempt is made to describe the various features of development and movement of this cyclone through radar and satellite imageries, conventional data and numerical models.  Emphasis is laid on the real-time handling of this event, impacts made by the cyclone and the services rendered in relation to disaster management by the State and Central Agencies.

Non-hydrostatic version of Pennsylvania State University- National Center for Atmospheric Research mesoscale model (MM5) is used to simulate the super cyclonic storm that crossed Orissa coast on 29 October, 1999. Experiments are carried out with four cumulus parameterization schemes namely; Kain-Fritsch, Betts-Miller, Grell and Anthes-Kuo and two planetary boundary layer parameterization (PBL) schemes namely; Hong-Pan and Burk-Thompson to study their impact on the movement and development of the cyclone. The sensitivity is examined in terms of movement, evolution of minimum pressure, rainfall pattern and vertical cross section of temperature.

All the simulations are able to develop the very severe cyclonic storm from very weak circulation except with Anthes-Kuo scheme. The evolution of the minimum central pressure shows much sensitivity among the different cumulus schemes with Kain-Fritsch producing 966 hPa while Anthes-Kuo 1004 hPa during the 4 days of the integration period. Different cumulus parameterization schemes show significant impact on the simulated movement of the cyclone. The results reveal that the evolution of minimum central pressure and horizontal as well as vertical structures of winds, temperature anomalies and rainband characteristic to a cyclone are well brought out by the combination of Kain-Fritsch and Hong-Pan schemes.

Published: November 2021

Salah satu perbedaan antara Perjanjian Lama (PL) dan Perjanjian Baru(PB) adalah gambaran akan Allah. PL menekankan bahwa Allah itu tak terlihat,sedangkan PB menyatakan bahwa Allah telah menjadi manusia dalam diriYesus Kristus yang dapat terlihat. Salah satu kata yang menggambarkanpengalaman akan Allah adalah â€œmelihat.â€ Kata tersebut tersebar baik dalam PLmaupun PB. Khususnya dalam Injil Yohanes, digunakan empat kata yangberbeda maknanya untuk menyebut kata â€œmelihatâ€: Î²Î»á½³ÌŸÎµÎ¹Î½, Î¸ÎµÏ‰ÏÎµá¿–Î½, Î¸Îµá¾¶ÏƒÎ¸Î±Î¹dan á½Ïá¾¶Î½. Kata â€œá½Ïá¾¶Î½â€ mengekspresikan penglihatan yang paling dalam diantara yang lain. Berdasarkan Yoh. 19:35, kata tersebut akan diteliti denganmelihat perbandingannya dengan teks lain, khususnya Yoh. 1:34, dimanaberpangkal dari pengalaman melihat itu orang mampu memberikan kesaksian.

Aplicação do EPOSTL no contexto angolano de formação inicial de professores
Authors: Vila Anil Miguel
Published: November 2021

Este artigo apresenta os resultados da experimentação do European Portfolio for Student Teachers of Languages (EPOSTL) no contexto do ensino superior angolano, refletindo sobre a sua eficácia na prática pedagógica da formação inicial de professores de língua inglesa. A pesquisa durou um semestre lectivo e a amostra compreendeu 40 estudantes que foram submetidos a um questionário. Os 15 estudantes mais destacados em termos de informações por eles fornecidas foram ainda submetidos a entrevistas semiestruturadas com a finalidade de aprofundar e pormenorizar tais informações. Os resultados do inquérito demonstram que cerca de dois terços dos participantes (63%) encaram positivamente o uso do portfólio na formação de professores de inglês em Angola, declarando que ele ajuda a refletir sistematicamente sobre as práticas pedagógicas e promove aprendizagem autónoma. Grandes porções dos participantes indicam como categorias mais relevantes para refletir as práticas, o Lesson Planning (75%), o Resources (68%) e o Conducting a Lesson (63%). No computo geral, mais de 50% dos estudantes concorda completamente, afirmando que este instrumento é compatível com a realidade angolana, enquanto que 88% dos entrevistados recomenda a utilização do portefólio. Isto demonstra que o EPOSTL contribui na promoção da reflexão e da autonomia na formação inicial de professores em Angola, um contexto que geralmente privilegia abordagens tradicionais de ensino no sentido de pura memorização e autoritarismo.

Authors: Vicente Augusto Joaquim
Published: November 2021

Este trabalho tem como objectivo caracterizar os instrumentos de avaliação das aprendizagens dos estudantes do ISCED-Huambo, identificando modelos instrumentais de avaliação, para o melhoramento desse processo na instituição em referência. A partir do objectivo proposto, abordou-se primeiramente sobre os aspectos relacionados com aprendizagem, avaliação das aprendizagens, caracterização dos instrumentos de avaliação das aprendizagens, para aferir a qualidade do processo formativo institucional. De seguida, a abordagem reflectiu-se na fundamentação metodológica onde foram tratados e aplicados diversos métodos teóricos e empíricos, que serviram para identificar diferentes formas de avaliação. A análise e interpretação dos resultados foram feitas a partir dos dados recolhidos dos professores, do corpo directivo por meio do questionário e também outros dados recolhidos a partir da análise documental. Através da caracterização dos instrumentos de avaliação elaborou-se algumas sugestões com vista a provocar reflexões por parte dos professores, acerca da escolha adequada do instrumento de avaliação. Este trabalho longe de ser definitivamente conclusivo e não tendo a pretensão de esgotar um assunto tão amplo, muito menos discutir todos os instrumentos de avaliação, constitui uma contribuição para o trabalho do professor em sala de aula. Sugere-se portanto, a necessidade de se trabalhar com base na diversificação dos instrumentos de avaliação, que possibilite ao estudante a aquisição de uma aprendizagem significativa.
