Published: January 2021

Objective: To study the frequency of In-Stent Restenosis and its treatment in patients undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for coronary artery disease.

Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study.

Place and Duration of Study: Department of Cardiology, Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology & National Institute of Heart disease (AFIC/NIHD) Rawalpindi, from Jul 2017 to Jul 2019.

Methodology: All the patients who underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Coronary Artery Disease at our institute were considered for this study. A consecutive sampling method was used and inclusion/exclusion criteria was applied. Following data was obtained; 1) Demographic information and clinical risk factors like history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, smoking, coronary artery disease characteristics(number of diseased arteries, bifurcation lesions, calcification, chronic total occlusions-CTO and tortuosity) 3), Stent factors (under expansion, fracture, longitudinal miss, stent gap). Data recording, storage, assessment and analysis was done by using SPSS software version 21.

Results: Among 1332 cases, 50 had In-Stent Restenosis with overall prevalence of 3.75%. Mean age of the patients with In-Stent Restenosis was 58.76 (± 9.97), with 45 (90%) male and 5 (10%) female. Diabetes Mellitus was the commonest risk factor (22.9%) followed by Hypertension (18%). Sixty four percent of the patients (n=32) had Single Vessel Coronary Artery Disease, 14 (28%) had Double Vessel Coronary Artery Disease and 4 (8%) had Tripple Vessel Coronary Artery Disease. Left Anterior Descending was the commonest coronary artery that developed In-Stent Restenosis, followed by Right Coronary Artery and Left Circumflex respectively. Previously deployed stents which developed In-Stent Restenosis showed longitudinal geographical miss in 16%, stent under expansion in 6% and stent gap in 4%. There was statistically significant association (p-value=0.02) between stent length and frequency of In-Stent Restenosis and it was commonest in stents longer than 30 mm. Eighty six percent(n=43) of In-Stent Restenosis cases in our study group was treated with Drug Eluting Stent followed by Drug Eluting Balloon in 32% and Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty in 22%.

Conclusion: History of diabetes mellitus and greater stent length were major risk factors in developing In-Stent Restenosis in our study. DES was the commonest treatment modality used.Keywords: , , .

How STEM Academy Teachers Conceptualize and Implement STEM Education
Authors: Lamberg Teruni , Trzynadlowski Nicole
Published: January 2021

STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education has been gaining increasing nationwide attention. While the STEM movement has ambitious goals for k-12 education, a lack of shared understanding exists of what STEM is as well as how to implement STEM in the elementary classroom. This study investigates how seven elementary teachers in three STEM academy schools conceptualize and implement STEM in their classrooms. Teacher interviews were conducted. The findings reveal that the majority of teachers believe that STEM education involves integrating STEM subject areas. STEM activities consisted of student-led research and reading activities on STEM topics. Two teachers described STEM as involving “hands-on” science activities. Teachers at each STEM academy school conceptualized and implemented STEM differently. How STEM was implemented at each school was based on how teachers interpreted STEM and the resources they had access to. The STEM coaches played a central role in supporting the elementary teachers to plan and implement lessons. Teachers relied on them for ideas to plan and teach STEM lessons. The results of this study indicate that as more schools embrace the STEM movement, a unified understanding and resources are needed to support teachers.

Exploring Student Understanding of Force and Motion Using a Simulation-Based Performance Assessment
Authors: Gale Jessica , Koval Jayma , Wind Stefanie , Ryan Mike , Usselman Marion
Published: January 2021

Performance assessment (PA) has been increasingly advocated as a method for measuring students’ conceptual understanding of scientific phenomena. In this study, we describe preliminary findings of a simulation- based PA utilized to measure 8th grade students’ understanding of physical science concepts taught via an experimental problem-based curriculum, SLIDER (Science Learning Integrating Design Engineering and Robotics). In SLIDER, students use LEGO robotics to complete a series of investigations and engineering design challenges designed to deepen their understanding of key force and motion concepts (net force, acceleration, friction, balanced forces, and inertia). The simulation-based performance assessment consisted of 4 tasks in which students engaged with video simulations illustrating physical science concepts aligned to the SLIDER curriculum. The performance assessment was administered to a stratified sample of 8th grade students (N=24) in one school prior to and following implementation of the SLIDER curriculum. In addition to providing an illustration of the use of simulation- based performance assessment in the context of design-based implementation research (DBIR), the results of the study indicate preliminary evidence of student learning over the course of curriculum implementation.
Persistence in STEM Majors: Investigating Whether and When High- Performing Students Leave STEM during Undergraduate Studies
Authors: Kohler Christopher W.
Published: January 2021

The focus of this study was to investigate the effects of both pre- and post-matriculation academic achievement on the likelihood and timing of high-achieving student departures from STEM majors at elite universities. While there has been robust research on persistence in STEM as a whole, survival analysis to investigate the timing of events is still a novel tool to investigate departure from STEM majors. Using longitudinal data collected at Harvard, secondary analysis was conducted to examine the research questions using discrete-time survival analysis. The researcher found that demographic characteristics of the students in the sample were not significant in predicting time-to STEM major attrition. However, verbal achievement was found to be the most significant predictor of STEM major attrition, with higher levels of verbal achievement leading to higher levels of attrition from STEM majors to non-STEM majors.
Cross-Disciplinary Studies Minors as a New Vehicle to Enhance STEAM Programs
Authors: Dekhtyar Alex , Schafner Andrew
Published: January 2021

This paper describes the motivation and organization of Cal Poly’s new type of academic subprogram: the Cross-Disciplinary Studies Minor (CDSM). CDSMs are an appropriate educational vehicle for providing both depth in one’s own field and breadth in a companion field for students who want to excel in studying topics that straddle the boundaries of traditional BS degrees. The design of CDSMs is illustrated using the example of Cal Poly’s Cross-Disciplinary Studies Minor in Data Science, which has been in place since 2015-2016 academic year.
Investigating Female Students’ Stem-Related Attitudes, Engagement and Work-Intentions When Involved in a University Workshop Initiative
Authors: Barkatsas Tasos , Cooper Grant , McLaughlin Patricia
Published: January 2021

Encouraging females to engage in and pursue Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education and vocations are key priorities for stakeholders and primary aims of the Australian Government-funded STEM in Situ (WISE 2016-18) project. Using a researcher-designed student survey by two of the authors, this article reports on the STEM-related attitudes, engagement and vocational intentions of female students involved in the project. The research survey developed for the project collected data in 2017-8 from 221 female students in Years 5-9 (11 to 16 years of age) from various public schools in Australia. Factor analytic and repeated measures t-tests data analysis techniques were used to explore the factor structure of the survey items and to examine students’ STEM-related attitudes, engagement and future work intentions both before and after their participation in the STEM in Situ project. The findings highlight the outcomes of the STEM in Situ workshops upon female students attitudes and engagements with STEM careers. The findings have the potential to inform future policies related to STEM interventions for young women.
Gender Perspectives of the Information Security
Authors: Kompantseva Larysa
Published: January 2021

The article defines the conceptual apparatus of the metalanguage of gender studies in the field of information security and solves a number of problems, in particular: the history of gender studies examined through the prism of the society’s information organization; proposes the definition of a number of gender concepts relevant to information security; substantiates gender perception characteristic of security and defense sector institutions as an important condition for ensuring information security.
Gender studies is considered as
a broad scientific field, a research practice in which new opportunities are realized related to the use of a gender approach to the analysis of power interdependencies and hierarchies, power structures, their subordination and domination.
The emphasis is placed upon the fact that gender paradigm mainstreaming responds to one of the most important trends of the 21st century – ensuring tolerant attitudes towards different styles of scientific thinking, providing for understanding of interdisciplinary relations as a trans paradigm phenomenon (the coexistence of several scientific paradigms that determine methodological pluralism in the course of research, the activities conducted at the intersection of sciences, involving the use of methods and comparison of the results of two or more branches of scientific knowledge) and methods of meta paradigm phenomenon (the creation of an all-encompassing, unifying doctrine capable of replacing the confrontation of scientific fields with their synthesis)
The theory of gender studies has led to the emergence of a new philosophical and communicative paradigm of security and defense institutions focused on gender sensitivity, that is meeting specific needs of diverse groups of men and women, boys and girls in the field of security and justice, and promotes the full and equal participation of women and men in this activity.

Historical evidences prove that primary sources of Islam remained safe from all types of distortions and alterations. The chain of narration was the basic tool that was used from primordial epoch till the age of compilation for safe transmission of sacred texts of Islam. The sayings of the Holy Prophet(S.A.W) that are technically named Hadith and life history of the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad(S.A.W) that is termed as “Sirah” are two disciplines of Islamic Knowledge that had been carefully and safely transferred to us through the medium of narration. It is a matter of fact many disciples of the Holy Prophet (S.A.W)who embraced Islam, were previously Jews or Christians. Similarly companions of these disciples were many who accepted Islam from Judaism or Christianity. It has been questioned that what is legal value of their narrations? If they disclosed something about the biblical traditions, are they acceptable?In this paper,all aspects regarding above discussion will elaborate.
Moments and number of defoliated leaves and hybrid corn productivity
Authors: Ramirez J. , Soto A. , Durán C. E. , Luis D. B.
Published: January 2021

AbstractObjectives: To determine the effect of the time and the number of lower leaves defoliated, on the productivity of hybrid corn (Zea mays L.). Methodology: Randomized complete blocks design was used, with arrangement of split plot and four replications, using the hybrid cultivar DK 7088. The plots corresponded to the defoliation times: 0, 14 and 28 days after pollination (DAP) and the subplots, number of defoliated leaves (DL): zero, two,four and six. The leaves were defoliated just below the ear, from top to the bottom. The total number of treatments was 12. Scott-Knott statistical test with a level of 5 % was used for the comparison of means. The traits studied were grain weight per ear, ear weight and grain yield per hectare. Results: The interaction between defoliation time and number of lower defoliated leaves was significant (P < 0.05) for grain weight per ear, ear weight andgrain yield. The defoliation of two, four and six leaves during pollination reduced the grain weight per ear, weight per cob and grain yield, being significantly lower than the no defoliated plants. At 14 and 28 days after pollination, defoliation did not affect significantly (P > 0.05) grain yield, but grain weight per ear and ear weight decreased (P< 0.05). Conclusions: The defoliation of lower leaves made during the pollination, reduces the grain weight per ear, ear weight and grain yield, while defoliation 14 days after pollination did not affect significantly the grain yield per hectare.Keywords: Zea mays, defoliation, leaves, grain yield

La dificultad nacía de la escasez de preceptores o maestros y también de la dispersión del habitante de las serranías. En la costa se hacía más fácil la tarea, por uno y otro capítulo y de ahí que entre los costeños desapareció pronto la lengua aborigen para dar lugar al castellano que todos hablaban

PMIP4/CMIP6 last interglacial simulations using three different versions of MIROC: importance of vegetation
Authors: O'ishi Ryouta , Chan Wing-Le , Abe-Ouchi Ayako , Sherriff-Tadano Sam , Ohgaito Rumi , Yoshimori Masakazu
Published: January 2021

Abstract. We carry out three sets of last interglacial (LIG)
experiments, named lig127k, and of pre-industrial experiments, named
piControl, both as part of PMIP4/CMIP6 using three versions of the MIROC
model: MIROC4m, MIROC4m-LPJ, and MIROC-ES2L. The results are compared with
reconstructions from climate proxy data. All models show summer warming over
northern high-latitude land, reflecting the differences between the
distributions of the LIG and present-day solar irradiance. Globally averaged
temperature changes are −0.94 K (MIROC4m), −0.39 K (MIROC4m-LPJ), and −0.43 K
(MIROC-ES2L). Only MIROC4m-LPJ, which includes dynamical vegetation feedback
from the change in vegetation distribution, shows annual mean warming
signals at northern high latitudes, as indicated by proxy data. In contrast,
the latest Earth system model (ESM) of MIROC, MIROC-ES2L, which considers
only a partial vegetation effect through the leaf area index, shows no
change or even annual cooling over large parts of the Northern Hemisphere.
Results from the series of experiments show that the inclusion of full
vegetation feedback is necessary for the reproduction of the strong annual
warming over land at northern high latitudes. The LIG experimental results
show that the warming predicted by models is still underestimated, even with
dynamical vegetation, compared to reconstructions from proxy data,
suggesting that further investigation and improvement to the climate
feedback mechanism are needed.
Quantifying the effects of urban green space on water partitioning and ages using an isotope-based ecohydrological model

Published: January 2021

Abstract. The acceleration of urbanisation requires sustainable, adaptive management strategies for land and water use in cities. Although the effects of buildings and sealed surfaces on urban runoff generation and local climate are well known, much less is known about the role of water partitioning in urban green spaces. In particular, little is quantitatively known about how different vegetation types of urban green spaces (lawns, parks, woodland etc.) regulate partitioning of precipitation into evaporation, transpiration and groundwater recharge; and how this partitioning is affected by sealed surfaces. Here, we integrated field observations with advanced, isotope-based ecohydrological modelling at a plot scale site in Berlin, Germany. Soil moisture, sap flow, together with stable isotopes in precipitation, soil water and groundwater recharge, were measured over the course of one growing season under three generic types of urban green space: trees, shrub and grass. Additionally, an eddy flux tower at the site continuously collected hydroclimate data. These data have been used as input and for calibration of the process-based ecohydrological model EcH2O-iso. The model tracks stable isotope ratios and water ages in various stores (e.g. soils and groundwater) and fluxes (evaporation, transpiration and recharge). Green water fluxes in evapotranspiration increased in the order shrub (381 ± 1 mm)

Sistema de selección universitaria en Chile
Authors: Carrasco Barrera Carolina
Published: January 2021

Se aborda el origen del actual sistema de selección universitaria (PSU) y las evaluaciones existentes respecto de su implementación y resultados, las cuales son ambivalentes, habiendo antecedentes de alta confiabilidad y valor predictivo de las pruebas, pero también de alta inequidad en el ingreso universitario. A partir de ello, se sugiere considerar nuevos indicadores para validar la selección universitaria, además del rendimiento al primer año, mencionando como ejemplos

las tasas de deserción universitaria y de titulación. Asimismo, se señalan algunas experiencias innovadoras, nacionales e internacionales, en la selección universitaria. Finalmente, el artículo invita a reflexionar respecto de los objetivos de la formación universitaria, proponiendo cambios e innovaciones profundas en el actual sistema de selección, para pasar desde un sistema que admite a quienes tienen altas probabilidades de obtener un buen rendimiento en el primer año, a un sistema que admite a quienes tienen motivación para estudiar una carrera, presentan habilidades y competencias para ejercerla, y tienen las características e intereses que les permitirán sentirse satisfechos en su ejercicio.
Conocimientos y actitudes sobre el uso de TIC's en la educación superior
Authors: Jiménez Villamizar Jairo
Published: January 2021

La integración de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TICs) en el ámbito educativo ha sido una de las metas prioritarias del gobierno colombiano durante los últimos quince años. Desafortunadamente, las acciones tomadas se han generado con poca información y bajo condiciones de imposición más que de integración. Por esta razón se realizó una investigación en la Universidad Externado de Colombia, con el fin de establecer un diagnóstico sobre los profesores de pregrado acerca de sus conocimientos y actitudes sobre el uso de TICs en su práctica docente, como punto de partida para realizar un diseño pedagógico de integración tecnológica. Para ello se trabajó con una muestra de 143 docentes de nueve facultades que permitió generar su perfil en el que se destaca un nivel tecnológico aceptable con el que han realizado aproximaciones a usos de TICs en sus clases, y muestran su claro interés y disposición al cambio pedagógico, demostrado a partir de una actitud positiva en relación al impacto de la informática educativa en sus actividades académicas.
Vocal Genres in Italy at the Turn of 16th and 17th Centuries: The Birth of the Monodic Style
Authors: Heltai-Duffek Ildikó
Published: January 2021

This essay examines vocal genres at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th, such as the villanella, aria, motet, madrigal and opera. The changing features of the genres, which include the monodic style and the recitative are at the centre of these changes. The features of the late Renaissance, for example, notation ornaments, and the Early Baroque period are beginning to be formed in those changes. By demonstrating these changes, the essay offers audiences and performers an opportunity to know and understand better the vocal music of this time and to perform it authenticly.

Published: January 2021

Para mim é uma grande alegria escrever sobre um belo livro que tive o privilégio de ler com antecedência. Trata-se de um ensaio que acaba de sair do forno e que tem como foco um gênero musical muito importante para a cultura argentina e é um presente para a humanidade: o Tango. Gênero musical apresentado com muito cuidado por Rafael Leopoldo, através de sua escrita que se fundamente e perpassa a psicologia, a antropologia e, principalmente, a filosofia francesa. Além disso, do início ao fim encontramos a sua paixão pela cultura e pela arte da música. Sua exposição ensaística é rica em detalhes da história da Argentina do século XIX e XX e dos hibridismos ocorridos na história da música tangueira com toda sua força rizomática. Em um primeiro momento, por exemplo, é analisado todo um período erótico e político do tango nos prostíbulos e lugares periféricos. Destes lugares, ademais, foram reconhecidas outras artes no século XIX e XX, não por convencimento, mas por persuasão ganharam notoriedade após o seu nascimento.Tango; Baile dos Corpos Dóceis é um livro que muito tem a contribuir para a literatura filosófico-musical e em especial, a literatura tangueira.
ÉTICA E XAMANISMO
Authors: Leopoldo Rafael , Starling Roberto
Published: January 2021

RESUMO

O presente paper primeiro propõe uma ecologia do medo diante do antropoceno. Trata-se de sentir o medo in concreto como parece propor o xamã Davi Kopenawa ou o filósofo Günther Anders. Desta forma, podemos estar diante do real perigo do antropoceno. Após, a exposição dessa ecologia do medo nós analisamos a Guerra dos Mundos elaborada, inicialmente, por Bruno Latour e reelaborada por Eduardo Viveiros de Castro e Déborah Danowski. Nós pensamos na distinção entre os Humanos (os modernos) e os Terranos (o povo que falta). Por último, propomos voltar a análise das tecnologias de si proposta por Michel Foucault. Foucault no seu livro A hermenêutica do sujeito produz uma genealogia do cuidado de si. Porém, o ponto não abordado dessa genealogia é que ela tem o seu início no xamanismo, assim, entramos na pré-história do cuidado de si para pensarmos um cuidado de si ameríndio na atualidade como possível resposta ao antropoceno.
AMBIGUIDADE PRESENTE NA RELAÇÃO DE NIETZSCHE COM O CETICISMO
Authors: Neto Francisco Alvarenga Junnior
Published: January 2021

Este artigo se pretende a uma discussão acerca da relação entre Nietzsche e o ceticismo. Em algumas passagens o filósofo realiza elogios aos céticos, porém, em outras, ele passa a referir-se a eles como decadentes. Ainda, em determinados momentos de seu texto, Nietzsche reclama para si outro tipo de ceticismo: experimental e criador que, visto mais de perto, não se identifica com as versões do ceticismo afirmadas durante a história da Filosofia. Dessa maneira, a fim de compreendermos a ambiguidade presente na relação de Nietzsche com o ceticismo, dividimos nosso trabalho em três seções. Na primeira, buscar-se-á explicitar a compreensão que o filósofo possui sobre a questão da verdade, em contrapartida ao entendimento dogmático. Na segunda seção o objetivo será discutir as formas como o ceticismo aparece no texto nietzschiano, com o intuito de clarificar a visão do filósofo sobre esta tradição. Por fim, na terceira seção, o texto se desenvolverá apresentando a voz cética de Nietzsche. Esta sua voz não se identifica com as vozes céticas de outrora. O ceticismo nietzschiano – criador – não aceita a paralisação da vontade, pelo contrário, ganha vida em prol da criação de possibilidades novas e engrandecedoras de si.
A FILOSOFIA EM PROL DA RELIGIÃO: O MOVIMENTO ESCOLÁSTICO NA IDADE MÉDIA CENTRAL (XI-XIII)
Authors: Gatt Pablo
Published: January 2021

O presente artigo tem como objetivo investigar o surgimento do movimento filosófico denominado de Escolástica no contexto cultural e educacional da Idade Média Central, entre os séculos XI e XIII. Nesse sentido, discutiremos como o advento das universidades medievais estiveram atreladas ao desenvolvimento do método Escolástico como pensamento filosófico. Em seguida debateremos como esse modo de pensar e modelo de estudo foi legitimado pelas universidades religiosas para o estudo dos livros dos Pais Latinos, os textos canônicos, das Sagradas Escrituras e das Sentenças de Pedro Lombardo, sendo essas obras verdadeiros instrumentos de trabalho, na medida em que partir desse método obras teológicas e filosóficas foram escritas, como a Summa Theologiae (1273), de Tomás de Aquino. Por fim, analisaremos como esse movimento foi contestado e contrariado internamente, visto que dentro das universidades os representantes das ordens religiosas dos Franciscanos e dos Dominicanos, os mestres eclesiásticos, realizavam refutações aos métodos adotados pela prática filosófica de pensamento Escolástica.
TRADUÇÃO DO PREFÁCIO DE ÉTIENNE GILSON À EDIÇÃO EM LÍNGUA INGLESA DE 1964 DE LA POÉTIQUE DE L’ESPACE, DE GASTON BACHELARD
Authors: Bertoche Gustavo
Published: January 2021

La Poétique de l'Espace (1958) é uma das obras mais importantes da fase imaginética de Gaston Bachelard: um texto composto de teses maduras, que constituem a sua perspectiva definitiva a respeito da questão da imagem poética. Quando o texto foi traduzido para a língua inglesa, o editor solicitou a Étienne Gilson, um dos maiores historiadores da filosofia franceses - e colega de Bachelard -, que escrevesse um pequeno prefácio. Nele, Gilson descreve a surpresa causada em muitos professores pela "virada estética" de Bachelard, e sustenta que os princípios metodológicos criados pelo filósofo inauguram uma nova era nos estudos da filosofia da arte. Este prefácio é aqui traduzido para o português.

A fundação das primeiras escolas jesuítas no Brasil apenas 49 anos depois de seu descobrimento não impediram que a difusão do ensino, mais especificamente, do ensino de história, ocorresse de forma tardia e lenta. É de se esperar, como consequência, que o seu povo não tenha afinidade com o estudo da disciplina iniciada por Heródoto, na Antiguidade Clássica. O presente artigo almeja, dessa forma, demonstrar como a falta de consciência histórica, herança da colonização de uma metrópole que não considerou a educação uma prioridade, se reflete no modo brasileiro de lidar com crises mundiais, nesse caso, com a atual pandemia causada pelo vírus COVID-19.
0CURRÍCULO COMO MATERIALIZAÇÃO DE CONCEITOS, IDEOLOGIAS E PROJETOS SOCIETÁRIOS
Authors: Veloso Silene Gelmini Araújo
Published: January 2021

O presente artigo tem como objetivo confrontar as concepções de três autores do campo do currículo: Apple, Young e Freire. Trata-se de um texto teórico, produzido a partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica de cunho interpretativo.  Esses autores foram escolhidos por serem clássicos do campo curricular e por apresentarem proposições que ora convergem e ora divergem, o que proporciona um panorama crítico da discussão sobre currículo. Ao apresentarem as suas considerações para as questões: A que ou a quem servem as escolas? (APPLE); Para que servem as escolas? (YOUNG); e Como a escola pode contribuir para a construção da conexão homem-mundo por meio do conhecimento contextualizado? (FREIRE), o artigo provoca a discussão sobre a pseudoneutralidade dos conhecimentos escolares e as diversas funções da escola na construção de diferentes projetos de sociedade. Currículo e poder, conhecimento “poderoso” e conhecimento contextualizado, movimento de “modernização conservadora” e as políticas de performatividade e o currículo como potencializador da necessária consciência e conexão homem-mundo por meio da construção da autonomia dos estudantes, são alguns dos temas tratados no artigo que se coloca como um painel de concepções curriculares.

Este trabalho analisa as Orientações Curriculares para a Educação Infantil e anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental do município de Serra – ES, a fim de investigar se o documento em vigência contempla a lei federal nº 10.639/2003 e ações para a Educação para as Relações Étnico-Raciais (ERER) no currículo escolar da rede municipal de ensino. Tendo em vista a luta do Movimento Negro, o currículo como espaço de poder e os debates atuais sobre a negritude, compreendemos a importância desta reflexão para a valorização da diversidade étnico-racial e combate ao racismo no ambiente escolar. O trabalho utilizou-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, com o emprego da técnica de pesquisa documental (Gil, 2010) sobre as Orientações Curriculares (OC) de Serra-ES, construídas em 2008 e ainda vigentes. Com os resultados da análise, consideraremos a necessidade de revisão do documento orientador, para que o trabalho da questão étnico-racial na Educação Infantil e nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental seja efetivado.
MULHERES NEGRAS: BARREIRAS RACIAIS E ASCENSÃO SOCIAL NAS TRAJETÓRIAS DE DIRETORAS

Published: January 2021

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo geral compreender a trajetória de mulheres negras de professoras a diretoras nas escolas de educação básica de Tubarão/SC em sua dinâmica das relações sociais de gênero, raça e classe. Como objetivos específicos buscou: conhecer o percurso e o enfrentamento de mulheres negras dentro dos espaços de sociabilidade na escola e fora dela; investigar a trajetória acadêmica e profissional de diretoras negras na construção de suas identidades; analisar o processo de ascensão social da professora negra para cargos de direção na escola como um espaço de liderança e lugar de resistência nas relações de raça, gênero e classe. Pautou-se pelo materialismo histórico e dialético propostos por Thompson (1981) e Frigotto (1999); e os autores Thompson (1992) Guimarães (2003) Davis (2011;2016) bell hooks (1995;2019), Carneiro (2003a;2003b), Gonzalez (1982ª;1982b;1985) e Gomes (2005). Como metodologia se utilizou a história de vida relacionada à trajetória de ascensão a partir de entrevistas com diretoras negras. Entre os resultados destacam-se a discriminação racial vivenciada no decurso de suas vidas e no espaço escolar, em contrapartida a uma forte autoestima e autoexigência como fios condutores e à visão da educação como espaço de mudança para mulheres negras.

Purpose To describe patient-reported outcomes, radiological results, and revision to total hip replacement in patients with hip dysplasia that underwent periacetabular osteotomy as isolated treatment or concomitant with hip arthroscopy. Methods Case series study. Between 2014 and 2017, patients were included if they complained of hip pain and had a lateral center-edge angle ≤ of 20°. Exclusion criteria included an in-maturate skeleton, age of 40 or older, previous hip surgery, concomitant connective tissue related disease, and Tönnis osteoarthritis grade ≥ 1. All patients were studied before surgery with an anteroposterior pelvis radiograph, false-profile radiograph, and magnetic resonance imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess intraarticular lesions, and if a labral or chondral injury was found, concomitant hip arthroscopy was performed. The non-parametric median test for paired data was used to compare radiological measures (anterior and lateral center-edge angle, Tönnis angle, and extrusion index) after and before surgery. Survival analysis was performed using revision to total hip arthroplasty as a failure. Kaplan Meier curve was estimated. The data were processed using Stata. Results A total of 15 consecutive patients were included; 14 (93%) were female patients. The median follow-up was 3.5 years (range, 2 to 8 years). The median age was 20 (range 13 to 32). Lateral center-edge angle, Tönnis angle, and extrusion index correction achieved statistical significance. Seven patients (47%) underwent concomitant hip arthroscopy; three of them (47%) were bilateral (10 hips). The labrum was repaired in six cases (60%). Three patients (15%) required revision with hip arthroplasty, and no hip arthroscopy-related complications are reported in this series. Conclusion To perform a hip arthroscopy concomitant with periacetabular osteotomy did not affect the acetabular correction. Nowadays, due to a lack of conclusive evidence, a case by case decision seems more appropriate to design a comprehensive treatment.

A research of subjective evaluations of the thermal comfort of business clothing evaluated in warm and slightly cold environment
Authors: Celcar Damjana
Published: January 2021

This paper presents a study of subjective assessments of thermal comfort when wearing business clothing made from conventional textiles, such as wool and blends with wool and textiles combined with phase-change materials (PCMs), which are capable of providing adequate thermal physiological comfort to the wearer. The evaluation of thermal comfort was carried out on the basis of determining the subjective feeling of thermal comfort with the help of test subjects in a computer controlled climatic chamber, in artificially created warm and slightly cold environmental conditions, at ambient temperature of 25°C, 20°C, 15°C and 10°C. The impact of particular business clothing systems and varied environmental conditions on the wearer's subjective feeling of thermal comfort was determined with a questionnaire and an assessment scale of thermal comfort defined by standard ISO 10551:1995. For this purpose, an analysis of the subjective evaluation of thermal comfort, the desired thermal state, the acceptability of the current situation and their personal tolerance of the environment, was made before, during and after each experiment. The results of the research show that subjective evaluations of thermal comfort directly depend on environmental conditions, as well as clothing systems and activity levels. It was found that the test subjects felt most comfortable in the selected business clothing at an ambient temperature of 20°C and 15°C. It is also evident from the results that at an ambient temperature of 25°C, the persons in the selected clothing felt slightly uncomfortable, especially during and after walking when they felt hot. The test subjects felt uncomfortable also at an ambient temperature of 10°C, when they felt cold or slightly cold while wearing the analysed 3-layer clothing systems without an additional layer of clothing. This indicates that an additional layer of clothing, such as a coat is needed for performing adequate thermal comfort around and below 10°C.

There is nothing mysterious about thinking in arithmetic. All it takes is knowing what the question is and how to find the answer. Should you desire an exhibition of the activity, provide these two items of knowledge and let Nature take its course.
The Art of Teaching: Centroids
Authors: Baravalle H. v.
Published: January 2021

In geometry classes we occasionally meet with the question: “What is geometry good for?” Usually the description of practical applications will provide the necessary answer. But in some cases the same question if it had been more accurately formulated, would read: “Can you convey to me experiences showing that geometry has a meaning and reality beyond man-made definitions and theorems?” Then the answer could be given somewhat in the line of the following example. One would say to the student: “Let me show you something. Here is a piece of cardboard in shape of a triangle. Try to balance it on the eraser-end of your pencil.” The student will make a few attempts and finally succeed in finding the point where the cardboard has to be supported in order to uphold itself in equilibrium. Then one will show that the same point can be obtained without any experimentation through geometric construction. It is the point of intersection of the medians of the triangle (Figure 1).
