Charles Baudelaire: from Eros to Thanatos
Authors:   Kurgan State University, Prokopyeva Marina Yuryevna , Fironov Nikolay Nikolaevich ,   Kurgan State University
Published: August 2018

The paper presents a concept that explains the creative subjectivity of Charles Baudelaire which is considered through the prism of the theory of egocentrism and existential philosophy. The research focuses on the verbal, moral and communicative forms of the poet’s egocentrism that have been formed while recreating the holistic view of the world through boredom, melancholy and nausea. The poet tries to understand, accept and demonstrate the reality through the nullity, the struggle between Eros and Thanatos. Verbal egocentrism integrates the object with the subject and displaces the outside world in full that engenders boredom. Moral egocentrism fostered by nausea implies the inability to perceive the basic moral qualities and the actions of others and directs the poet towards Thanatos. Communicative egocentrism accompanied by illusion and melancholy becomes a fundamental principle of later life, turns Baudelaire into a “sacrifice from himself”. Baudelaire believes that an attempt to know himself and find himself in this world of existence rather than the being is a possibility of reconstructing the “split” of being, which turns into the destruction of reality supported by the egocentrism of the poet. The hyperfocus on oneself, the attempts to reconstruct one illusory world and create the other, the fragments of the world instead of its structure, the substitution of one’s own values and expression of oneself through creativity are the main features of egocentrism according to Charles Baudelaire.

Eradication of female illiteracy in Bashkiria in the 1920s
Authors:   Ufa Federal Research Center,  Russian Academy of Sciences, Sultanguzhina Gulfia Yunirovna
Published: August 2018

The paper demonstrates the aspects of the state literacy policy implemented in relation to the female population in Bashkiria in the 1920s. The eradication of female illiteracy is regarded as an essential prerequisite for the cultural revolution. Without universal literacy, a woman could not start a new life. The paper notes the enormous difficulties and problems faced by the government and public organizations in the course of their work. The emphasis is placed on the activities of women’s units having involved women in the eradication of illiteracy. In the 1920s, progress had been made in the campaign against illiteracy. However, despite significant achievements, this task hindered by objective and subjective reasons (the need to overcome patriarchal prejudices and conservative views of the population, the lack of teachers, textbooks) could not be quickly solved.
Logistics of road building enterprises in the North of West Siberia in the 1960s–1970s
Authors:   Surgut State University, Veselov Sevostyan Igorevich
Published: August 2018

The paper analyzed the logistics of road construction in the North of West Siberia. The focus was on the severe weather conditions of West Siberia that determined the complicated and slow development of logistics of road building trusts. The research demonstrated the achievements and shortcomings of road building trust equipment of the Ministry of Transport Construction of the USSR in the territory of oil and gas complex. Based on the state and municipal archives, the author identified the main ways of supplying construction materials to the subdivisions of road building trusts. The research revealed that the departure from the implementation plan for highway depended on the insufficient supply with precast concrete units, spare parts for road-building machines. These shortcomings led to management reforms of supply systems of the Ministry of Transport Construction of the USSR and its trusts.
The spiritual and moral culture of the peoples of the North Caucasus in the context of globalization
Authors: Bazieva Gulfiya Dzhamalovna ,   Kabardino-Balkarian Scientific Center of  the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: August 2018

The research discusses the impact of Eastern and Western globalism on modern ethnocultural processes. Nowadays, the East-West dichotomy is studied not in terms of the opposition of cultural and religious traditions but as a manifestation and overlay (or rejection) of various identities. There are both overall and specific trends in dealing with ideological, political, religious, social and economic issues at the present stage of the cultural identity development of every people in the Russian Federation. The purpose of the study is to analyze the effect of Eastern and Western globalism on the culture of the peoples of the North Caucasus in the context of social and political as well as social and cultural realities. The societies preserving the spiritual and moral values and ethnic traditions are the only ones that can resist the unifying phenomena of globalization that reduce the values of ethnic traditions. In this regard, the role of the humanities is reinforced while developing both ethnic and civil identity of the peoples of the Russian Federation. The approaches of cultural science allow one to study modern processes in the North Caucasus in a wide sociocultural global and local range.
“Bible garden” in the Kuban peasant estate of Mazaev: spatial decisions and cultural context
Authors:   Krasnodar State Institute of Culture, Zhdanova Lyudmila Aleksandrovna
Published: August 2018

The study discusses the problems of preserving the estate garden and park architecture designed at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries. Gardens and parks as an integral element of the manor culture represent a great component of the national heritage. The irretrievably lost manors have led to the disappearance of a considerable part of the Russian landscape architecture that is hard to be restored. However, this process is necessary as the reconstruction of the past objects in many respects makes it possible to understand the features of the Russian park building of the late 19th – early 20th centuries. It is characterized by the recreation of the habitat under laws of beauty taking into account the outlook characteristic of the turn of centuries that combines contrast spiritual and emotional attitudes. By a case study of the estate park of I.I. Mazaev, the research demonstrates the park and garden landscape formed as a result of the synthesis of the natural environment and worldviews of the estate owner.

Authors:   Chita State Medical Academy, Volnina Natalia Nikolaevna , Starodubtseva Ksenia Anatolievna ,   Chita State Medical Academy, Podgornaya Inna Aleksandrovna ,   Social  and Pedagogical College
Published: August 2018

The paper deals with the religious ecphrasis as a way to convey the spiritual meanings of cultural texts as well as the creation of the image of seven sins and its representation in literature and painting. The authors analyze the concepts of sin and seven sins from the standpoint of philosophy, religious and cultural studies, consider the patristic teachings on eight main passions and seven deadly sins. The research presents the hermeneutic algorithm for recognizing and mastering the image of seven sins in the texts of culture through the religious ecphrasis. This algorithm includes such components as architectonics, cardiognosis, Christocentrism. The authors demonstrate how the proposed algorithm can be implemented based on the following works: “The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things” by H. Bosch, “Crime and Punishment” by F.M. Dostoevsky, “Dead Souls” by N.V. Gogol.

Preoperative nutrition and postoperative liver function: a correlation study of pediatric living donor liver transplantation
Authors: Lu Ye-Feng , Wang Yan , Huang Ming-Zhu , Ren Xue-Fei , Gao Lei-Qing , Li Dan , Li Yan-Fen , Yang Yan
Published: August 2018

Objective

There is little information focusing on the nutritional issue of pediatric recipients before they receive living donor liver transplantation. This study illustrates the relationship between nutritional status and graft liver function and provides a reference regarding nutritional interventions in future studies.

Methods

We prospectively collected data from 30 pediatric living donor liver transplant recipients from January 1, 2016, to June 30, 2016. The information included demographic data, preoperative nutritional assessment, and postoperative laboratory examinations. The nutritional assessment included the serum concentration of vitamin D, bone density, trace element, and weight Z value. The laboratory examinations included white blood cell count, neutrophil percentage, hemoglobin, blood platelet, total protein, albumin, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, alanine transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, creatinine, bile acid, blood glucose (Glu), prothrombin time, international normalized ratio, tacrolimus concentration, and graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR). The data were collected on Days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, 30, and 60 after liver transplantation.

Results

The recipients consisted of 15 (50%) males and 15 (50%) females. The median age was 7 months (4–48 months). The mean height and weight were 69.07±9.98 cm and 8.09±2.63 kg, respectively. According to the univariate analysis, the gender, diagnosis, blood type, and GRWR did not significantly impact the liver function after the operation. The posttransplantation AST levels and Glu showed significant differences in terms of the nutritional status, with P<0.05. The multivariate correlation analysis showed that the serum concentrations of vitamin D and AST were midrange positively correlated, with P<0.05.

Conclusions

The nutritional status of patients with biliary atresia is relatively poor. There is a definite midrange positive correlation between nutrition and graft liver function that might play a relatively important role in the recovery of the graft.
Lithological maps visualizing the achievements of geological sciences in the first half of the 19th century
Authors: Szaniawska Lucyna
Published: August 2018

The paper discusses selected maps of rock strata which exemplify the evolution stages of presentation methods of cartographic data concerning the geological structure of selected countries (France, Great Britain and Germany) which in the first half of the nineteenth century constituted the leaders of the field. The results of geologists’ work are used to present the content of maps, provide explanations and showcase the methods and techniques chosen by the maps’ creators. The analysed maps are accompanied by geological writings which contain descriptions of the chronological order within rock formations and strata defined on the basis of fossils, methods of recreating the geological history of individual regions, and attempts of compiling the acquired knowledge and using it to describe larger areas. The author discusses also two maps of Europe published in the mid-nineteenth century, which are the result of cooperation and research achievements of geologists from different countries.
Forgive our presumption: a difficult reading of Matthew 23:1-3
Authors: Stuckert Jonathan D.
Published: August 2018

In Matthew 23:1-3, Jesus commands His disciples and the crowd to listen to the scribes and Pharisees even while not imitating their actions. Many modern interpreters have lessened the force of Matthew 23:1-3 by an assumption of irony on the part of Jesus. We presume that God could never ordain this for His people. However, this easier reading may not be the best reading. A more straightforward interpretation, but one that is difficult to hear, suggests that at times we may need to sit under bad leadership as means of receiving God’s Word. Pre-critical and modern interpreters provide an understanding of the words of Jesus that is consistent with a theology of God’s providence in times of transition and bad leadership. In addition, there are instances of His direction in both the Old and New Testaments that reinforce this challenging path. It is through this more faithful stance that we grow and flourish in difficult times.
Leaders on ladders: the power of story in John’s Gospel
Authors: Crider Amy L.
Published: August 2018

In his Gospel, John reveals this key leadership principle: effective leaders harness the power of narrative to illuminate the metanarrative and connect people to it. John uses narrative techniques to make invisible spiritual realities visible and thus succeeds in connecting people to the metanarrative. John forges a link between people and the metanarrative by showing individuals how their own stories fit into the biblical metanarrative, fulfilling his purpose: ‘These are written that you may believe…’ (20:31). The church is transmitted through the ages by leaders who write. Because the metanarrative is a story and story is accessible to all audiences, the biblical metanarrative is not dependent on culture, time, or context; it transcends the ages, enabling John to lead and write from the present as well as for the future. Thus, John illuminates the metanarrative not only for the infant church but for all Christians to come. Christian leaders today also need to communicate so their people can see their place in the metanarrative of Scripture.
Concepts and action: where does the embodiment debate leave us?
Authors: Shipp Nicholas J. , Vallée-Tourangeau Frédéric , Anthony Susan H.
Published: August 2018

The behavioural evidence of sensorimotor activity during conceptual processing, along with that from neurological research, ignited the debate around the extent to which concept representations are embodied or amodal. Such evidence continues to fuel the debate but it is open to interpretation as being consistent with a variety of the theoretical positions and so it is possible that further, similar evidence may not lead to its resolution. In this paper we propose that independent value accrues from following this line of research through the enhanced understanding of the factors that influence agents’ conceptual processing of action and how this interacts with the agent’s goals in real environments. This approach is in line with broad principles of embodied cognition and is worthy of pursuit regardless of what the results may (or may not) tell us about conceptual representation.
A Constructivist Approach to the Teaching of Mathematics to Boost Competences Needed for Sustainable Development
Authors: Vintere Anna
Published: August 2018

The constructivist approach is based on the idea that knowledge can never be passed from one person to another. The only way to acquire knowledge is to create or construct them. The constructivist approach changes also the role of the teacher in the educational process, the task of them is to organize the environment so that the student himself can construct the cognitive forms that teacher wants to give him. In the paper, the nature of the constructivist approach is identified, different aspects regarding mathematics education are analysed as well as the potential impact on the development of mathematical competences in the context of sustainable development is discussed. The study process and learning methods appropriate to constructivist approach also were studied. In order to illustrate the need for a constructivist approach in mathematics education, the survey of students from Latvia University of Life Science and Technologies (LLU) and Riga Technical University (RTU) were carried out, the results of which proved that mathematics learning at universities has to be changed. The current study proved that the constructivist approach radically changes the process of teaching and learning mathematics, connecting it with daily life, rather than teaching only abstract formulas and using a creative approach to mathematical tasks solving. This study shows that using constructivist approach to the teaching of mathematics, the competences needed for sustainable development are boosted.
Shared Rule vs Self-Rule? Bicameralism, Power-Sharing and the ‘Joint Decision Trap’
Authors: Benz Arthur
Published: August 2018

In federal and regionalised states, bicameralism constitutes shared rule between levels of governments. At the same time, second chambers serve as a safeguard protecting selfrule of decentralised governments against the encroachments of central legislation into their areas of responsibility. Both functions seem to be best fulfilled in legislative systems requiring joint decisions of legislative chambers. Depending on particular conditions, joint decision-making involves the risk that legislation ends with ineffective compromises or even fails. Under favourable conditions, it provides a productive structure to apply shared rule and protect self-rule. Comparative studies can identify these conditions, and appropriate ways to adjust institutional designs of bicameralism accordingly, bearing in mind that significant institutional reforms of bicameral systems are difficult to achieve.
Beyond Second Chambers: Alternative Representation of Territorial Interests and Their Reasons
Authors: Palermo Francesco
Published: August 2018

The paper contends that bicameral systems, irrespective of their differences in composition and powers, are unfit to represent territorial interests in the national decisionmaking process, except in some residual cases. What subnational entities seek is participation rather than representation. This is why alternative, executive-based institutions in which also the national government is present are mushrooming and second chambers are ineffective as territorial bodies. Furthermore, there is a clear trend to move from bicameralism to bilateralism, meaning that instead of taking advantage of ineffective multilateral institutions, strong subnational units try to channel their claims through bilateral instruments. Overall, the unresolved dilemma of subnational representation has little to do with the architecture of second chambers and rather lays in the tension between individual and collective representation.
History of a (Limited) Success: Five Points on the Representativeness of the Committee of the Regions
Authors: Martinico Giuseppe
Published: August 2018

This article briefly explores the reasons why the Committee of the Regions (CoR) has only partially accomplished its representative function. It is divided into three parts. In the first part I argue that the ambiguous nature of the CoR is the consequence of the polysemous notion of ‘region’ in EU law (Palermo, 2005) and of the very heterogeneous approach to the ‘federal issue’ in Europe. In the second part of the article I look at the recent developments that have given the CoR new powers, for instance in light of Art. 263 TFEU in order to defend its own prerogatives and Art. 8 of Protocol No 2 on the application of the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality. This will be done by looking at a recent resolution of the CoR on a proposal made by the EU Commission to amend Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013. Finally, I deal with some proposals that have been advanced to strengthen the role of the CoR, and their feasibility.
Extra-legislative Functions of Second Chambers in Federal Systems
Authors: Happacher Esther
Published: August 2018

Discussions regarding the functional design of second chambers in federal or quasifederal systems seem to focus mainly on legislative functions. Thus, extra- or nonlegislative functions related to the executive branch or the judiciary have been rather neglected in the literature. This paper will examine the extra-legislative functions of second chambers which include Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. By grouping the functions into different categories (relations with the Government, appointment functions and functions in the field of international affairs, powers in relation to the European Union and functions granted to maintain the legitimate constitutional order), their effectiveness in serving the purposes of bicameralism, and of regional representation, will be explored.
Four Year Results of Conservative Treatment of Benign Strictures of the Esophagus with Savary Gilliard Technique of Bougienage: Cross-Sectional Study Representing First Experiences in Republic of Macedonia
Authors: Andreevski Vladimir , Deriban Gorgi , Isahi Urim , Mishevski Jane , Dimitrova Magdalena , Caloska Viktorija , Joksimovic Nenad , Popova Rozalinda , Serafimovski Vladimir
Published: August 2018

Background: Benign esophageal strictures are complications resulting from various causes. They can be structurally categorized in two groups: simple and complex. Treatment is similar in most cases that require dilatation and means use of three general types of dilators that are currently in use. However, despite the last guidelines on esophageal dilatation, the therapeutic response, optimal timing of treatment and interval between sessions may vary and there is no strong consensus in the literature regarding this fact.

Aims: To analyzethe first 4 year experience of Digestive Endoscopy Unit at the University Clinic of Gastroenterohepatology of the Medical Faculty, Skopje, Republic of Macedonia in treating benign esophageal strictures, since the Savary-Gilliard technique of “bougienage” was introduced for the first time in Republic of Macedonia, at our Institution, in December 2013, by assessing etiology, length of stricture, number of dilations required to achieve satisfactory therapeutic response, as well as the relationship between the type, extent of stenosis and therapeutic response.

Methods: One hundred and forty five dilations, during a period from 20th December 2013, until March 2017, have been analyzed in 31 patients

Results: The caustic strictures were the most prevalent, occurring in 15 (48%) of patients, followed by peptic stenosis presenting 26% of patients. The long and corrosive strictures needed more sessions to the absence of dysphagia. Peptic and short stenoses best respondedon treatment and needed fewer dilatation sessions per patient.

Conclusion: Caustic stricture is the most common type of benign esophageal stenosis and the most refractory to treatment, especially the long one. Peptic stenosis is the second cause of benign esophageal strictures and responded well to endoscopic therapy. The higher the extent of stenosis, the greater the number of sessions required. Short strictures have good prognoses in most cases. The number of dilations depended directly on the cause and extent of stenosis. Bouginage using Savary-Gilliard or American type of technique, irrespective of the type and the extent of esophageal stenosis, is safe and purposeful procedure.
Analysis of Bone Metabolism in Children with Cystic Fibrosis
Authors: Jakovska Tatjana
Published: August 2018

One of the most important CF-related conditions is the bone disease, which is nowadays acknowledged as a significant clinical complication of CF. Imbalance between bone formation and degradation in cystic fibrosis (CF) has become an important issue for developing osteopenia. The aim of the study was to assess bone formation and resorption process with bone markers in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). Materials and methods: The study included 35 clinically stable children with CF who regularly attended the Cystic fibrosis center at the University Pediatric Clinic in Skopje, R. Macedonia. The control group was presented with 21 healthy children at the same age. Serum osteocalcin (OC), β cross laps, 25OHD and PTH were determined by ELISA assays in the CF group (mean age 8.25±SD1.9 y.) and in age-match controls (7.5±1.9 y.). Results: Vitamin D in the CF group was (23.83±10.9 ng/ml versus 25.6±11.53 in the control group, p=0.57), OC (70.88±34.24 ng/ml v.100.02±47.98, p=0.01) βcrosslaps (1.35±0.72 ng/ml v.1.54±0.73, p=0.37) and PTH (37.39±25.5 pg/ml v. 36.76±25.73, p=0.92). In the study, we did not find a significant difference for 25OHD between CF and healthy controls. OC in children with CF correlates significantly with the control and indicates a decreased formation rate whereas resorption rate is normal. Conclusion: Our results suggest that bone turnover in CF is impaired in childhood. Serum markers for bone formation can be used for predicting osteopenia in children with CF.
Avaliação da política nacional dos resíduos sólidos em Jaú-SP: sob o enfoque das relações sociais
Authors: Palacio dos Santos Larissa Maria , De Lorenzo Helena Carvalho
Published: August 2018

A Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos, Lei 12.305/2010, surgiu no intuito de solucionar os impasses relacionados aos resíduos sólidos. Aos municípios implicou na incumbência de formular e implementar um Plano de Gerenciamento de Resíduos Sólidos (PMGRS), e eliminar os lixões à céu aberto, exigências que não têm sido devidamente cumpridas. O presente artigo têm por objetivo mostrar quais são as origens das dificuldades municipais, e ressaltar a importância das relações entre os atores sociais para os resultados da implementação desta política pública, diferenciando-se assim dos demais estudos sobre o tema. Foram pesquisados dados secundários obtidos de fontes oficiais sobre a evolução do gerenciamento de resíduos sólidos no município de Jaú, SP, em jornais, revistas e documentos oficiais,  assim como forma consultados artigos, teses, dissertações sobre o tema em questão. Os dados primários foram obtidos por entrevistas semiestruturadas com os principais agentes da implementação da política. Observou-se que embora o município tenha se adequado formalmente às propostas legais, a gestão municipal de resíduos teve avanços mínimos, e poucas ações foram concluídas. Atribuem-se os resultados pouco satisfatórios da política, à formulação precária, às mudanças de gestão e de equipes nas fases de formulação e implementação da política, que implicaram em redes de atores difusas, e a outras questões já ressaltadas como hipóteses pela revisão bibliográfica do tema.

Authors: Adisusilo Anang Kukuh , Hariadi Mochamad , Yuniarno Eko Mulyanto , Purwantana Bambang , Radi Radi
Published: August 2018

The real data support the “seriousness” of the serious game and give more authentic situations, which can make players feel immersed in scenarios, and gain a real experience. Therefore, the modeler must be able to recognize whether a model reflects reality to identify and deal with divergences between theory and data. In this paper, we present a model for design a basis of immersive in serious games. The studied case is the tillage using a moldboard plow, by taking real data through an experiment use a device called soil bin. It aims to determine the effect of angle, depth, and speed on the soil porosity; by comparing the value of the smallest error using the polynomial function of the use of different orders. The result of an average smallest error with the polynomial approach is 1.10E-07 in the 3rd order, closer to the experimental value. Therefore, the model can be used for designing immersive serious game.

‘Urbanisation of Everybody’, Institutional Imperatives, and
Social Transformation in Pakistan
Authors: Qadeer Muhammad A .
Published: August 2018

Cultural change and social transformation are essential
elements of the process of development. They complement and sustain
economic growth. Economic historians acknowledge that the rise of the
West from poverty to wealth was as much the result of improvements in
trade, savings, investment and productivity as of emerging norms of
thrift, trust, specialisation, rationality and contractual relations
[Rosenberg and Birdzell (1986)]. In fact, it would not be an
exaggeration to say that economic development is essentially a
phenomenon of cultural change. The recognition of the role of cultural
and social factors in economic growth has led to a subtle revision of
the terminology from ‘economic development’ to the adjectiveless term
‘development’ or the fully spelled out title of economic and social
development. Yet this acknowledgement has remained largely on the
conceptual plane. It has not been translated into policies and
programmes to deliberately set the direction of cultural change and
define the alignment of social organisation. Development strategies
have, by and large, treated social and cultural factors as exogenous
variables. This is true of development planning in general and in
particular of its practice in Pakistan. In fifty years of economic
planning in Pakistan, little attention has been paid to the social and
cultural aspects of development.

O curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina passou recentemente por alterações curriculares embasadas nas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais dos cursos de graduação em Odontologia. A alteração do projeto pedagógico foi realizada em 2006, em concordância com a Resolução n 3/02 CNE/CES, de 19 de fevereiro de 2002, que instituiu as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais do Curso deGraduação em Odontologia. O novo currículo entrou em vigor no primeiro semestre de 2007. Objetivando avaliar a reforma curricular a partir da comparação entre os conhecimentos de diagnóstico dos alunos do antigo e dos alunos do novo currículo, suas opiniões sobre o curso e suas aptidões profissionais foi aplicado um questionário contendo 20 questões sobre diagnóstico em Odontologia e 4 questõesrelacionadas ao curso de graduação e sua aptidão profissional. O estudo contou com a participação de90 estudantes que formaram dois grupos, o grupo I formado pelos alunos do currículo antigo e o grupo II, formado pelos alunos do currículo novo. Após a aplicação dos questionários os dados foram calculados estatisticamente no programa epiData e digitados no Excel. Os resultados mostraram que as diferenças entre os conhecimentos de diagnóstico nãoforam estatisticamente significativas entre os grupos I e II, em relação ao ponto forte do curso houve diferença estatística entre os dois grupos, no grupo I predominou o aprendizado em modalidades de tratamento enquanto no grupo II o aprendizado em diagnóstico integral. Em relação ao local onde preferem atuar ambos os grupos responderam em suamaioria nos serviços públicos de saúde associado a clínica privada, em relação às áreas de atuação tanto o grupo I como o grupo II optou em sua maioria pelas disciplinas clínicas tendo uma prevalência relevante no grupo II a Saúde Coletiva.

O Projeto PET-Saúde-Redes/ Eixo Vigilância em Saúde foi implantado na UFPB em parceria com a SES-PB, na perspectiva de superar lacunas e reorientar a formação dos profissionais da saúde. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar como a experiência no PET-SAÚDE potencializou o desenvolvimento das Competências Gerais propostas pelas DCN. As vivências no PET proporcionam a inserção dos estudantes em vários cenários de aprendizagem. Na Gerência Operacional em DST/AIDS e Hepatites Virais foram vivenciadas as demandas estaduais de organização da rede de atenção, trabalhando as questões relacionadas à descentralização das ações; organização de fluxos dos usuários; recursos técnicos e humanos; educação permanente;e planejamento das ações, orientado pelo princípio da informação para a ação. Perante a atenção ambulatorial hospitalar, no trabalho com equipe multiprofissional, fez-se parte do processo de sensibilização dos profissionais em seu local de atuação. Logo,se propiciouo desenvolvimento da comunicação multiprofissional, liderança e, sobretudo, o contato com os usuários do serviço. No campo específico da odontologia foi possível obter conhecimento dos espaços de atuação extra clínica do cirurgião-dentista, em especial, na atenção ambulatorial e hospitalar voltada para a prevenção, promoção e reabilitação de saúde no contexto da AIDS e Hepatites Virais. O PET potencializa uma formação reorientada para as práticas de atenção, processos de trabalho, e a construção do conhecimento a partir das necessidades do serviço. Fortalecendo, portanto, a implantação das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais e a integração ensino-serviço.

O curso de Odontologia da UEM iniciou sua participação no Projeto PET-Saúde a partir da Portaria Interministerial N.º 3, de 7 de maio de 2009. Atualmente, o programa conta com cinco grupos tutoriais, incluindo seis cursos do Centro de Ciências da Saúde (CCS) e um do Departamento de Psicologia. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar a experiência do grupo tutorial vinculado à UBS Mandacaru, em Maringá – PR, que no ano de 2013 trabalhou com o tema “Fortalecimento da Rede Mãe Paranaense no município de Maringá-PR”. A dinâmica de trabalho foi dividida em: Abordagem do tema por meio de oficinas sobre o PET-Saúde e a Rede Mãe Paranaense e a realização de palestras e oficinas sobre aleitamento materno. Foi realizada uma pesquisa ajustada à realidade local, além de visitas à UBS e a participação no grupo de apoio às gestantes. A aprendizagem ativa com análise crítica do serviço foi exercida por meio  da participação no Conselho Municipal e Local de Saúde. As atividades mostraram que o trabalho individual não supre as necessidades da população, mas sim, um trabalho em equipe. Uma equipe multiprofissional que atue de maneira articulada ao cuidado integral à saúde dos indivíduos. O PET-Saúde possibilita ao aluno aprender a direcionar as ações baseadas na autonomia e corresponsabilidade, bem como adquirir liderança para levar adiante o compromisso com o bem-estar da população.

O estudo possui o objetivo principal de ampliar a compreensão sobre a produção do “agir em competência” para o cuidado especializado na atenção à saúde bucal. A abordagem metodológica utilizou análises qualitativas e quantitativas. Um questionário online com 32 questões organizadas em cinco blocos temáticos foi respondido de forma anônima por estagiários de Odontologia nos serviços do Sistema Único de Saúde. Categorias temáticas e componentes analisadores foram sistematizados: protocolos, campos de estágio, atividades de educação à distância e dinâmicas pedagógicas. Os dados quantitativos foram analisados pela freqüência das respostas fechadas. Com relação às questões abertas o objetivo foi analisá-las procurando alcançar o sentido e não apenas o conteúdo do texto. Os resultados evidenciaram que a experiência de integração ensino-serviço analisada está proporcionando aprendizagens significativas sobre o funcionamento das redes de atenção especializada em saúde bucal e o desenvolvimento de competências para a resolução de problemas. A modificação de protocolos da atenção especializada em saúde bucal é uma experiência constante vivenciada pelos estagiários nos campos de estágio. Os aspectos da experiência com maior potencial inovador, político e pedagógico (os campos de gestão, as tutorias e a educação à distância) foram também os que apresentaram maior fragilidade.

A Universidade apresenta um importante papel na formação de um profissional capaz de atender às demandas da população, buscando a relevância social. As Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais trouxeram para a Odontologia a flexibilização do currículo, permitindo que cada instituição de ensino formulasse sua proposta pedagógica para abranger e se adequar à realidade social local. Dessa forma, são necessários novos perfis de profissionais com condições de responder às necessidades de saúde da população de acordo com os princípios e diretrizes do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Para isso, a formação do cirurgião-dentista deve resgatar o caráter coletivo da prática odontológica, graduando um profissional apto a interferir na realidade do indivíduo e do território. O estudo objetiva verificar as expectativas e motivações dos estudantes ingressantes na Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade de São Paulo no ano de 2013 em relação ao curso e ao mercado de trabalho no contexto das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais e integração com o SUS. Foi aplicado um questionário aos ingressantes no primeiro semestre de 2013 e os dados foram tabulados no software Microsoft Excel. Os resultados revelaram que 46% dos ingressantes já entram na faculdade objetivando uma especialidade, 76,59% dos ingressantes almejam um bom retorno financeiro, ao passo que 53,19% desejam ter seu próprio consultório ou trabalhar como autônomo. Concluímos que diante do perfil de trabalho autônomo, privado e altamente especializado, a academia tem um grande desafio de desconstruir o imaginário trazido pelo ingressante, a fim de que este possa estar apto a trabalhar de forma adequada no SUS.

A mudança nas diretrizes curriculares dos cursos de graduação no Brasil deveu-se à necessidade de adequar o perfil do egresso, pois a formação de profissional clínico – que não conseguia atender as exigências do mercado de trabalho – pelo ensino centrado apenas no campo técnico-científico, criou fendas entre o campo do saber e o aspecto humanístico da saúde. Desta forma, a construção de Projetos Pedagógicos de Curso (PPC) baseados nas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais e em conformidade com Projetos Pedagógicos Institucionais deveria ser pautada na colaboração de todos os atores envolvidos no processo. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar o conhecimento dos discentes sobre o PPC do Curso de Odontologia de uma universidade pública. Observou-se o desconhecimento discente sobre as regulamentações que norteiam a formação superior, evidenciando a necessidade de reorganização dos sujeitos participantes deste processo, com maior participação de todos na construção dos PPCs para que os objetivos da formação estejam de acordo com as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais.
