Authors: Oliveira Gabriela Da Silva , Teixeira Bruno Rodrigo
Published: May 2022

Na Licenciatura em Matemática da Universidade Estadual de Londrina, uma das ações que compõe o Estágio Curricular Supervisionado é a elaboração de um Relatório de Estágio de Observação, guiada por um roteiro. Dentre os itens que constituem esse roteiro, alguns têm potencial para desencadear uma escrita reflexiva, a qual é uma possibilidade para a manifestação de conhecimentos profissionais. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste artigo é identificar domínios e subdomínios do modelo Conhecimento Especializado do Professor de Matemática (MTSK) manifestados em itens que têm potencial para desencadear uma escrita reflexiva em futuros professores na elaboração do Relatório de Estágio de Observação. Assim, a partir de leituras das produções referentes a estes itens de Relatórios de doze estagiários, evidenciamos escritas que manifestaram conhecimentos relacionados ao modelo. Além disso, notamos que algo que aparenta ser propício para essa manifestação consiste em solicitar que os estagiários reflitam acerca de cada aula observada e, especialmente, que indiquem se houve algum momento em que adotariam outros encaminhamentos caso estivessem na posição de professores. Por fim, sugerimos que orientações como as dos itens analisados sejam propostas a estagiários na elaboração de Relatórios de Estágio de Observação, com a intenção de incentivar a manifestação de conhecimentos profissionais especializados por meio da reflexão a respeito das observações.

Um olhar para a conscientização e para a Educação Matemática Crítica a partir de teses e dissertações produzidas em Educação Matemática
Authors: Duarte Adriéli Aline , Vertuan Rodolfo Eduardo
Published: May 2022

No presente artigo realizamos o mapeamento de teses e dissertações disponíveis na Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações e no Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações de Capes, no período de 2010 a 2020, que versam sobre a Conscientização e aspectos relacionados a ela, no âmbito da Educação Matemática e, mais especificamente, da Modelagem Matemática. Delimitando a busca na região de interesse da pesquisa, consideramos trabalhos embasados pela Educação Matemática Crítica e pela Modelagem Matemática empreendidas no contexto da Educação Básica. Adotando a Análise de Conteúdo como metodologia de coleta e de análise de dados, realizamos a seleção dos trabalhos para análise a partir da busca por termos como consciência, tomada de consciência, consciência crítica e conscientização. Essa busca objetivou compreender de que formas esses termos têm sido empregados nos discursos de autores quando abordam, em suas obras, o engajamento crítico de alunos por meio de propostas metodológicas embasadas pela Modelagem Matemática. Mediante aos dados coletadas e análises realizadas, concluímos que os trabalhos fazem menção e demonstram intenções para um trabalho voltado à tomada de consciência, contudo, poucos apresentam o referencial que adotam ao discutir tomada de consciência, além de que poucos adotam explicitamente a perspectiva de Freire (2016, 2020). Constatamos, ainda, o uso ingênuo dos respectivos termos e confusões nos seus usos.

Anemia of pregnancy is a condition of pregnant women with hemoglobin levels less than 11gr/dl in the first and third trimesters and less than 10.5gr/dl in the second trimester. Hemoglobin (Hb) is a red pigmented protein found in red blood cells. Increasing Hb can be done by using Seaweed, because seaweed contains iron, minerals, B complex vitamins, protein and others. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of seaweed consumption on increasing Hb levels in pregnant women. This research is a Quasy Experiment research with one group pretest-posttest design. Respondents were 10 pregnant women with anemia in Tarakan City, where samples were taken by purposive sampling. The Hb of pregnant women before being given seaweed was the majority 9.21 g/dl, the lowest Hb was 7 g/dl and the highest was 9.8 g/dl. The Hb of pregnant women after being given seaweed was the majority 10 g/dl, the highest Hb was 12.7 g/dl and the lowest was 7 g/dl. The results showed p value <0.0001 (p<0.05) with a change in the mean before being given the intervention from 8.94 g/dl to 10.93 g/dl after being given the intervention. Thus, seaweed is very effective in increasing Hb levels in anemic pregnant women.

Para el sector financiero, la transfiguración tecnológica ha requerido de una importante inversión para dosificar la infraestructura digital, no solo en equipamiento, sino en capital humano, con altas competencias para manejar y desarrollar plataformas informáticas que entreguen tanto servicios como seguridad a los usuarios del sector bancario, principalmente. La figura del «FINTECH», vista como una opción para generar productos financieros y canalizar transacciones entre instituciones y clientes, tiene más de dos décadas, acrecentándose en el 2008, dada la necesidad de simplificar la presencia de clientes en las entidades, tomándole a Ecuador cerca de diez años implementarlo plenamente, activándose más en esta etapa de crisis sanitaria, obligando al consumidor a utilizar servicios en línea. En principio, muchas organizaciones que se dedicaban a la actividad de prestación «FINTECH», no eran muy bien vistas o confiables, sin embargo, el mismo sector bancario se ha empoderado de este modelo de gestión, y hoy se ha transformado en una acción esencial, donde se mide la competitividad en el otorgamiento de estos intangibles. La investigación planteó el objetivo de establecer «en que forma las empresas fintech impactan en la simplificación de servicios financieros presenciales en Ecuador». Se tomó una muestra importante de los bancos más sobresalientes del país (por región), que brindan este tipo de servicios. El soporte metodológico del estudio se sustenta en la aplicación de varias tipologías investigativas, conjuntamente con el método deductivo indirecto. Aprovechando el recurso estadístico SPSS/25, se establecieron las correlaciones entre las variables, cuyos principales hallazgos se explican en las conclusiones.
De-Implementation: Lessons to be Learned when Abandoning Inappropriate Homelessness Interventions

Evidence on what works to end homelessness is growing. Evidence also highlights that some forms of help are harmful and should be de-implemented. The ability to abandon low-functioning interventions is considered essential to improve conditions for homeless people. It is common for challenges to be encountered when evidence exists claiming that alternative approaches are more effective and/or cost-effective. This is particularly true in the context of the problematic staircase model and the highly effective Housing First. In this study, the aim was to collect published articles on the process of abandoning established methods with low scientific support. This scoping review explores evidence on de-implementation that may clarify why it can be difficult to introduce interventions like Housing First despite having strong scientific evidence. The call for a shift toward greater provision of Housing First in Sweden underlines the timeliness of this problem. Forty-one articles published between 2014 and 2020 were included.
The review found no articles focusing on the de-implementation of homelessness services. Findings from other fields show that the important first step is to identify what needs to be phased out. Together with organized demands from users and favorable financial effects, scientific evidence can constitute driving mechanisms for de-implementation. We found a lack of practical frameworks and theoretical explanations that could support successful phasing out of unnecessary interventions in the homelessness field. It is suggested that to support the implementation of new ways of working that better benefit homeless people, we must pay attention to established ways of working. This requires a developed theory of de-implementation of homelessness interventions and calls for more robust research.
Palabras, mejor de una en una: los niños con dislexia ante la lectura de palabras presentadas simultáneamente

Diferentes estudios han reportado que los lectores competentes se benefician de la presentación simultánea de palabras durante la lectura. Por otra parte, la existencia de representaciones ortográficas de las palabras parece facilitar el inicio de la codificación fonológica de la palabra contigua, que se iniciaría durante el proceso de articulación de la palabra target. Sin embargo, este beneficio podría no darse en los niños con dislexia, considerando su escasa competencia lectora. El objetivo de este estudio era investigar si los niños con dislexia se benefician de la presentación simultánea de palabras escritas y si esto depende de las características de los estímulos. Para ello, niños con y sin dislexia participaron en dos tareas de lectura. En la primera tarea, las palabras, manipuladas en frecuencia y longitud, se presentaban de manera aislada; mientras que la segunda tarea se trataba de listas de tres palabras, en las que se manipulaba la frecuencia y longitud de la tercera palabra. Los resultados pusieron de relieve las dificultades lectoras en el grupo con dislexia, con peor rendimiento que el grupo control en ambas tareas. Por otra parte, ambos grupos obtuvieron ventaja de la presentación simultánea de palabras, con tiempos previos a la articulación de la palabra menores en la presentación simultánea que en la palabra aislada. Sin embargo, este beneficio no se dio en los tiempos de articulación y exactitud lectora en los niños con dislexia, especialmente cuando se trataba de palabras largas e infrecuentes, sugiriendo que los niños dislexia no alcanzan el mismo nivel de preprocesamiento que los niños del grupo control.
Vocabulary depth as preliteracy skill
Authors: García Gómez Lydia , Rueda Sánchez Mercedes I.
Published: May 2022

The aim of this study is to explore the predictive value of vocabulary breadth and depth together with the classical variables of phonological awareness, naming speed and alphabetic knowledge in explaining progress in the initial learning of reading and writing in a sample of 162 students in the 3rd year of kindergarten. Early detection of risks in learning to read is essential to be able to intervene proactively if signs of dyslexia are found. The study of skills that predict successful literacy acquisition may be useful to identify risk indicators of learning disabilities in reading and writing in early childhood education. The results found confirm the contribution of classical variables and reveal that especially vocabulary depth seems to be a good predictor of success in early literacy performance. The educational implications of these findings are discussed.

Background

Biofeedback is a non-invasive therapeutic method used independently or as an adjunct alongside other methods.

Objective

This study evaluated the efficacy of biofeedback in the treatment of anxiety disorders.

Methods

The sample consisted of 85 individuals with anxiety symptoms who underwent neuro-biofeedback therapy using Brain Boy Universal Professional. Anxiety was assessed by both the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) and Zung Anxiety Self-Assessment Scale (SAS) before the initiation and after completing ten sessions with biofeedback.

Results

Before biofeedback and based on the HAM-A scale, 27.0% of the individuals showed mild to moderate anxiety, 16.5% medium anxiety, and 56.5% severe anxiety. After the completion of biofeedback, 90.6% of the individuals experienced mild to moderate anxiety, 5.9% medium anxiety, and 3.5% severe anxiety. Based on the SAS scale, before biofeedback, 42.4% of the individuals showed minimal to moderate anxiety, 21.2% marked severe anxiety and 36.5% most extreme anxiety. After the biofeedback, 68.2% of the individuals were within a normal range, 27.1% had minimal to moderate anxiety, 4.7% marked severe anxiety, and none in most extreme anxiety.

Conclusion

Both HAMA-A and SAS scales showed statistically reduced anxiety levels after biofeedback therapy. Thus, the primary symptom of anxiety can be addressed by the biofeedback method.
