CARACTERIZAÇÃO FÍSICO-QUÍMICA E MICROBIOLÓGICA DA CARNE DO MOLUSCO BIVALVE SARNAMBI (Phacoides pectinitus) COLETADO NAS PRAIAS EM ALGODOAL E SALINÓPOLIS, NO PARÁ
Authors: Salles Priscila Brasil Dias , Macedo Yuri Bertolo , Figueiredo Elaine Lopes
Published: July 2017

O Sarnambí (Lucina pectinata) é um molusco muito encontrado em praias paraenses, e possui grande aceitabilidade por parte de seus consumidores. No entanto, poucas pesquisas foram realizadas visando conhecer suas caracterisiticas físico-quimicas e higiênico-sanitárias  Assim, este trabalho objetivou avaliar as caracterisiticas físico-químicas e microbiologica da carne do sarnambí coletada na praia da Lua Cheia, localizada na Ilha de Algodoal (Amostra A) e praia do Paraíso na Vila de Cuiarana, município de Salinópolis (Amostras B), no Estado do Pará, e realizar um levantamento sobre o método de extração da carne deste molusco. Foram determinados os niveis de umidade, proteínas, lipídeos, colesterol, resíduo mineral fixo, carboidrato, valor calórico, pH, bases nitrogenadas voláteis totais, e minerais (ferro, cobre, magnésio, manganês, zinco e potássio) para a caracterização físico-química. As análises microbiologicas foram: contagem padrão de aeróbias mesófilas, contagem de fungos filamentosos e leveduras, Coliformes Totais e Termotolerantes, Staphylococcus aureus, pesquisa de Salmonella e Clostridim Sulfito Redutores. Os resultados das análises físico-química demonstraram que este alimento é considerado uma fonte expressiva de proteína, e baixos índices de lipídeos e valor calórico. Não houve contaminação por Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella e Clostridium Sulfito Redutores em nenhuma das amostras avaliadas, o que garante dizer que as mesmas encontram-se dentro dos padrões de qualidade e de acordo com a legislação vigente. Entretanto, houve contaminação em todas as amostras avaliadas de bactérias aeróbias mesófilas, fungos filamentosos e leveduras, e Coliformes Totais e Termotolerantes, confirmando a falta de cuidados higiênico-sanitários dos manipuladores e dos utensílios envolvidos no beneficiamento do alimento.
Diet Composition, Feeding Periodicity, and Prey Selection of Slimy Sculpin During Winter
Authors: Johnson James H. , Chalupnicki Marc A. , Abbett Ross
Published: July 2017

Slimy Sculpin Cottus cognatus is an important component of the benthic ichthyofauna of many lakes and streams in the northern latitudes of North America. Although considerable information exists on the feeding ecology of this species, there is essentially no information available on winter feeding. Consequently, we examined the winter feeding ecology of Slimy Sculpins in a central New York stream. Ephemeropterans (37.8%) and trichopterans (31.2%) were the primary prey taxa consumed in January. There was evidence of diel variation in diet composition, with ephemeropterans making up 24.1% of the diet at 0400 hours and 46.7% at 1600 hours and trichopterans contributing 22.7% at 1200 hours and 43.8% at 2000 hours. During winter, Slimy Sculpins selected chironomids (0.46) and trichopterans (0.43) and avoided coleopterans (−0.84) and nonchironomid dipterans (−0.67). Peak food consumption of Slimy Sculpins occurred at night. Winter feeding patterns of Slimy Sculpins in Grout Brook, a second-order tributary of Skaneateles Lake in central New York, contrasted sharply with observations from other studies carried out during other seasons. Our findings are a significant contribution on the winter feeding ecology of this important benthic species and illustrate the need for both diel and winter studies to fully understand life history characteristics.

A Second Order Ghost Fluid Method for an Interface Problem of the Poisson Equation
Authors: Liu Cheng , Hu Changhong
Published: July 2017

A second order Ghost Fluid method is proposed for the treatment of interface problems of elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients. By appropriate use of auxiliary virtual points, physical jump conditions are enforced at the interface. The signed distance function is used for the implicit description of irregular domain. With the additional unknowns, high order approximation considering the discontinuity can be built. To avoid the ill-conditioned matrix, the interpolation stencils are selected adaptively to balance the accuracy and the numerical stability. Additional equations containing the jump restrictions are assembled with the original discretized algebraic equations to form a new sparse linear system. Several Krylov iterative solvers are tested for the newly derived linear system. The results of a series of 1-D, 2-D tests show that the proposed method possesses second order accuracy in L∞ norm. Besides, the method can be extended to the 3-D problems straightforwardly. Numerical results reveal the present method is highly efficient and robust in dealing with the interface problems of elliptic equations.
GPU-Accelerated LOBPCG Method with Inexact Null-Space Filtering for Solving Generalized Eigenvalue Problems in Computational Electromagnetics Analysis with Higher-Order FEM
Authors: Dziekonski A. , Rewienski M. , Sypek P. , Lamecki A. , Mrozowski M.
Published: July 2017

This paper presents a GPU-accelerated implementation of the Locally Optimal Block Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (LOBPCG) method with an inexact nullspace filtering approach to find eigenvalues in electromagnetics analysis with higher-order FEM. The performance of the proposed approach is verified using the Kepler (Tesla K40c) graphics accelerator, and is compared to the performance of the implementation based on functions from the Intel MKL on the Intel Xeon (E5-2680 v3, 12 threads) central processing unit (CPU) executed in parallel mode. Compared to the CPU reference implementation based on the Intel MKL functions, the proposed GPU-based LOBPCG method with inexact nullspace filtering allowed us to achieve up to 2.9-fold acceleration.
A Moving Mesh Finite Difference Method for Non-Monotone Solutions of Non-Equilibrium Equations in Porous Media
Authors: Zhang Hong , Zegeling Paul Andries
Published: July 2017

An adaptive moving mesh finite difference method is presented to solve two types of equations with dynamic capillary pressure effect in porous media. One is the non-equilibrium Richards Equation and the other is the modified Buckley-Leverett equation. The governing equations are discretized with an adaptive moving mesh finite difference method in the space direction and an implicit-explicit method in the time direction. In order to obtain high quality meshes, an adaptive monitor function with directional control is applied to redistribute the mesh grid in every time step, then a diffusive mechanism is used to smooth the monitor function. The behaviors of the central difference flux, the standard local Lax-Friedrich flux and the local Lax-Friedrich flux with reconstruction are investigated by solving a 1D modified Buckley-Leverett equation. With the moving mesh technique, good mesh quality and high numerical accuracy are obtained. A collection of one-dimensional and two-dimensional numerical experiments is presented to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method.
An Implicit Unified Gas Kinetic Scheme for Radiative Transfer with Equilibrium and Non-Equilibrium Diffusive Limits
Authors: Sun Wenjun , Jiang Song , Xu Kun
Published: July 2017

This paper is about the construction of a unified gas-kinetic scheme (UGKS) for a coupled system of radiative transport and material heat conduction with different diffusive limits. Different from the previous approach, instead of including absorption/emission only, the current method takes both scattering and absorption/emission mechanism into account in the radiative transport process. As a result, two asymptotic limiting solutions will appear in the diffusive regime. In the strong absorption/emission case, an equilibrium diffusion limit is obtained, where the system is mainly driven by a nonlinear diffusion equation for the equilibrium radiation and material temperature. However, in the strong scattering case, a non-equilibrium limit can be obtained, where coupled nonlinear diffusion system with different radiation and material temperature is obtained. In addition to including the scattering term in the transport equation, an implicit UGKS (IUGKS) will be developed in this paper as well. In the IUGKS, the numerical flux for the radiation intensity is constructed implicitly. Therefore, the conventional CFL constraint for the time step is released. With the use of a large time step for the radiative transport, it becomes possible to couple the IUGKS with the gas dynamic equations to develop an efficient numerical method for radiative hydrodynamics. The IUGKS is a valid method for all radiative transfer regimes. A few numerical examples will be presented to validate the current implicit method for both optical thin to optical thick cases.
(a)topia(s). Una indagación artística sobre malestares deslocalizados y estrategias de invisibilidad
Authors: Marín García Teresa
Published: July 2017

(a)topia(s) se propone como una investigación basada en arte. Es un proceso de indagación que a través de la práctica artística trata de reflexionar sobre ciertas formas de malestar deslocalizado de la sociedad actual. Se recurre al concepto de atopía como metáfora de una reacción hipersensible, que surge como respuesta (individual o social) frente a diversos estímulos ambientales que caracterizan el contexto de la globalización. Lo atópico alude a lugares inespecíficos, cambiantes y de difícil localización, pero cuyas reacciones se encarnan en situaciones concretas y particulares.

(a)topia(s) se inicia en 2006 como un diario gráfico y textual que exploraba territorios difusos entre lo documental y la ficción, de forma lúdica, crítica y reflexiva. Posteriormente se van ampliando los medios de experimentación visual: objetualizando los textos, construyendo objetos y explorando posibilidades gráficas y narrativas audiovisuales. Este proceso de experimentación práctica se desarrolla de forma paralela a la investigación y definición de un glosario de conceptos clave, definitorios de la sociedad globalizada y que tiene como rasgo común su difícil localización y su condición de invisibilidad, como son: poder, capitalismo, precariedad, miedo, vigilancia, censura, amor, deseo, libertad, conocimiento.

(a)topia(s) se plantea como una experimentación crítica de resistencia, posicionándose desde el hacer y asumiendo la duda, la discontinuidad y la interferencia como aspectos clave del proceso. La materialización se concibe como parte del proceso reflexivo, prestando atención a lo cercano, poco visible o infravalorado, como los objetos cotidianos, los materiales débiles y los actos mínimos. El proceso experimental se ha centrado metodológicamente en la exploración del tránsito ente medios, las posibilidades simbólicas y narrativas del montaje y el desarrollo de estrategias visuales y de invisibilización como recursos disruptivos del discurso.
Captación de agua de lluvia y niebla en la época de secas en la ciudad de Xalapa, Veracruz, México
Authors: Parada Molina Paulo César , Cervantes Pérez Juan
Published: July 2017

Este trabajo evalúa la cantidad de agua de lluvia y niebla capturada y su relación con el consumo promedio a nivel vivienda en la ciudad de Xalapa, Veracruz (México) durante el periodo que va desde noviembre de 2012 a febrero de 2013. El agua de lluvia se cuantifica por medio de pluviómetros de balancín instalados en las azoteas de las casas y la niebla a través de un colector omnidireccional conocido comúnmente como colector de cuerda. Se observa que la cantidad de agua de lluvia captada mensualmente puede representar de un 20 a un 35% del consumo promedio mensual demostrando que la captación de agua pluvial es una alternativa de abastecimiento para satisfacer las necesidades a nivel doméstico en temporada de estiaje. En cuanto a la cantidad de niebla capturada sus valores son bajos aunque se debe resaltar la gran cantidad que la vegetación capta de manera natural.
 
A Column Generation for the Heterogeneous Fixed Fleet Open Vehicle Routing Problem
Authors: Yousefikhoshbakht Majid , Dolatnejad Azam
Published: July 2017

This paper addressed the heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem (HFFOVRP), in which the vehicles are not required to return to the depot after completing a service. In this new problem, the demands of customers are fulfilled by a heterogeneous fixed fleet of vehicles having various capacities, fixed costs and variable costs. This problem is an important variant of the open vehicle routing problem (OVRP) and can cover more practical situations in transportation and logistics. Since this problem belongs to NP-hard Problems, An approach based on column generation (CG) is applied to solve the HFFOVRP. A tight integer programming model is presented and the linear programming relaxation of which is solved by the CG technique. Since there have been no existing benchmarks, this study generated 19 test problems and the results of the proposed CG algorithm is compared to the results of exact algorithm. Computational experience confirms that the proposed algorithm can provide better solutions within a comparatively shorter period of time.
Aligning Organizational Pathologies and Organizational Resilience Indicators
Authors: Morales Allende Manuel , Ruiz-Martin Cristina , Lopez-Paredes Adolfo , Perez Ríos Jose Manuel
Published: July 2017

Developing resilient individuals, organizations and communities is a hot topic in the research agenda in Management, Ecology, Psychology or Engineering. Despite the number of works that focus on resilience is increasing, there is not completely agreed definition of resilience, neither an entirely formal and accepted framework. The cause may be the spread of research among different fields. In this paper, we focus on the study of organizational resilience with the aim of improving the level of resilience in organizations. We review the relation between viable and resilient organizations and their common properties. Based on these common properties, we defend the application of the Viable System Model (VSM) to design resilient organizations. We also identify the organizational pathologies defined applying the VSM through resilience indicators. We conclude that an organization with any organizational pathology is not likely to be resilient because it does not fulfill the requirements of viable organizations.
Graphic Design in Urban Environments
Authors: Harland Robert
Published: July 2017

Graphic Design in Urban Environments introduces the idea of a category of designed graphic objects that significantly contribute to the functioning of urban systems. These elements, smaller than buildings, are generally understood by urban designers to comprise such phenomena as sculpture, clock towers, banners, signs, large screens, the portrayal of images on buildings through “smart screens,” and other examples of what urban designers call “urban objects.” The graphic object as it is defined here also refers to a range of familiar things invariably named in the literature as maps, street numbers, route signs, bus placards, signs, architectural communication, commercial vernacular, outdoor publicity, lettering, banners, screens, traffic and direction signs and street furniture. One can also add markings of a sports pitch, lighting, bollards, even red carpets or well dressings.

By looking at the environment, and design and deconstructing form and context relationships, the defining properties and configurational patterns that make up graphic objects are shown in this book to link the smallest graphic detail (e.g. the number 16) to larger symbolic statements (e.g. the Empire State Building). From a professional design practice perspective, a cross section through type, typographic, graphic and urban design will provide a framework for considering the design transition between alphabets, writing systems, images (in the broadest sense) and environments.
Danish Modern
Authors: Mussari Mark
Published: July 2017

Danish Modern explores the development of mid-century modernist design in Denmark from historical, analytical and theoretical perspectives. Mark Mussari explores the relationship between Danish design aesthetics and the theoretical and cultural impact of Modernism, particularly between 1930 and 1960. He considers how Danish designers responded to early Modernist currents: the Stockholm Exhibition of 1930, their rejection of Bauhaus aesthetic demands, their early fealty to wood and materials, and the tension between cabinetmaker craft and industrial production as it challenged and altered their aesthetic approach. Tracing the theoretical foundations for these developments, Mussari discusses the writings and works of such figures as Poul Henningsen, Arne Jacobsen, Hans Wegner, Nanna Ditzel, and Finn Juhl.
Design and the Question of History
Authors: Fry Tony , Dilnot Clive , Stewart Susan C.
Published: July 2017

Design and the Question of History is not a work of Design History. Rather, it is a mixture of mediation, advocacy and polemic that takes seriously the directive force of design as an historical actor in and upon the world. Understanding design as a shaper of worlds within which the political, ethical and historical character of human being is at stake, this text demands radically transformed notions of both design and history. Above all, the authors posit history as the generational site of the future. Blindness to history, it is suggested, blinds us both to possibility, and to the foreclosure of possibilities, enacted through our designing.

The text is not a resolved, continuous work, presented through one voice. Rather, the three authors cut across each other, presenting readers with the task of disclosing, to themselves, the commonalities, repetitions and differences within the deployed arguments, issues, approaches and styles from which the text is constituted. This is a work of friendship, of solidarity in difference, an act of cultural politics. It invites the reader to take a position – it seeks engagement over agreement.
Designing the French Interior: The Modern Home and Mass Media
Authors: Lasc Anca I. , Downey Georgina , Taylor Mark
Published: July 2017

Title Description: Designing the French Interior traces France’s central role in the development of the modern domestic interior, from the pre-revolutionary period to the 1970s, and addresses the importance of various media, including drawings, prints, pattern books, illustrated magazines, department store catalogs, photographs, guidebooks, and films, in representing and promoting French interior design to a wider audience. Contributors to this original volume identify and historicize the singularity of the modern French domestic interior as a generator of reproducible images, a site for display of both highly crafted and mass-produced objects, and the direct result of widely-circulated imagery in its own right. This important volume enables an invaluable new understanding of the relationship between architecture, interior spaces, material cultures, mass media and modernity.

Art, Time and Technology
Authors: Gere Charlie
Published: July 2017

Art, Time and Technology examines the role of art in an age of ‘real time‘ information systems and instantaneous communication. The increasing speed of technology and of technological development since the early nineteenth century has resulted in cultural anxiety. Humankind now appears to be an ever-smaller component of dauntingly complex technological systems, operating at speeds beyond human control or even perception. This perceived change forces us to rethink our understanding of key concepts such as time, history and art. Art, Time and Technology explores how the practice of art - in particular of avant-garde art - keeps our relation to time, history and even our own humanity open. Examining key moments in the history of both technology and art from the beginnings of industrialization to today, Charlie Gere explores both the making and purpose of art, and how much further it can travel from the human body.
The Design of Everyday Life
Authors: Shove Elizabeth , Watson Matthew , Hand Martin , Ingram Jack
Published: July 2017

How do common household items such as basic plastic house wares or high-tech digital cameras transform our daily lives? The Design of Everyday Life considers this question in detail, from the design of products through to their use in the home.
Drawing on interviews with consumers themselves, the authors look at how everyday objects, ranging from screwdrivers to photo management software, are used on a practical level. Closely investigating the design, production and use of mass-market goods, the authors offer new interpretations of how consumers’ needs are met and manufactured. They examine the dynamic interaction of products with everyday practices.

The Design of Everyday Life presents a pathbreaking analysis of the sociology of objects, illuminating the connections between design and consumption.

Becoming Human by Design
Authors: Fry Tony
Published: July 2017

The last in Tony Fry’s celebrated trilogy of books continues his radical rethinking of design. Becoming Human by Design’s provocative argument presents a revised reading of human ‘evolution’ centred on ontological design.

Examining the relation of design to the nature of the human species - where the species came from, how it was created, what it became and its likely future - Fry asserts that current biological and social models of evolution are an insufficient explanation of how ‘we humans’ became what we are.

Making a case for ontological design as an evolutionary agency, the book posits the relation between the formation of the world of human fabrication and the making of mankind itself as indivisible. It also functions as a provocation to rethink the fate of Homo sapiens, recognising that all species are finite and that the fate of humankind turns on a fundamental Darwinian principle - adapt or die. Fry considers the nature of adaptation, arguing that it will depend on an ability to think and design in new ways.
The Handbook of Design for Sustainability
Authors: Walker Stuart , Giard Jacques
Published: July 2017

Sustainability has emerged as a central issue for contemporary societies and for the world community as a whole. Furthermore, many of the social and environmental concerns that are embodied in the term ‘sustainability’ are directly or indirectly related to design. Designers help to define our human made environment - how it is produced, how it is used, and how long it endures. Despite some forty years of development and increased awareness of the critical relationships that exist between design decisions and modes of production, energy use, environmental impacts, the nature of work and human exploitation, design for sustainability is still not widely understood or followed. The Handbook of Design for Sustainability presents a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of this crucial subject - its development, its methods, its practices and its potential futures.

Bringing together leading international scholars and new researchers to provide a substantive insight into the latest thinking and research within the field, The Handbook covers a breadth of historical and theoretical understandings and includes a series of original essays that explore methods and approaches for designers and design educators.

The Handbook presents the first systematic overview of the subject that, in addition to methods and examples, includes historical perspectives, philosophical approaches, business analyses, educational insights and emerging thinking. It is an invaluable resource for design researchers and students as well as design practitioners and private and public sector organizations wishing to develop more sustainable directions.
Symbol, Pattern & Symmetry
Authors: Hann Michael
Published: July 2017

Symbol, Pattern and Symmetry: The Cultural Significance of Structure investigates how pattern and symbol has functioned in visual arts, exploring how connections and comparisons in geometrical pattern can be made across different cultures and how the significance of these designs has influenced craft throughout history.

The book features illustrative examples of symbol and pattern from a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, from Byzantine, Persian and Assyrian design, to case studies of Japanese and Chinese patterns. Looking at each culture's specific craft style, Hann shows how the visual arts are underpinned with a strict geometric structure, and argues that understanding these underlying structures enables us to classify and compare data from across cultures and historical periods.

Richly illustrated with both colour and black and white images, and with clear, original commentary, the book enables students, practitioners, teachers and researchers to explore the historical and cultural significance of symbol and pattern in craft and design, ultimately displaying how a geometrical dialogue in design can be established through history and culture
Rheumatology training in Poland vs. United Kingdom
Authors: Lazarewicz Karina , Chinoy Hector
Published: July 2017

When evaluating the quality of Rheumatology specialty training, it can be useful to explore similarities and differences between countries. In this article we compare the training in the UK and Poland.

The two training programmes are similar in length and in the competencies that must be achieved, although they do have significant differences in the way the training is structured. The UK-based system is more out-patient based, which can be advantageous, as after completion of training the doctor is more confident in treating common rheumatological problems.

On the other hand, having exposure to paediatric rheumatology and orthopaedics like one has in Polish-based training, despite a short placement time, is definitely beneficial for the trainee in gaining all-round knowledge.

In conclusion, each system has its merits and can be further enhanced by observing how junior doctors are sub-speciality trained in different countries.
Flipped peer leader training: A modularised, blended and active peer leader training and development program
Authors: Menzies Victoria , Tredinnick Jennifer
Published: July 2017

Blended and flipped classroom pedagogical models are recognised as having the potential to deepen and enrich student learning while also being a more engaging learning experience (Partridge, Ponting, & McCay, 2011). E-learning platforms and blended pedagogies have transformed the higher education landscape, changing how teaching and learning occur along with learner expectations about the nature of their learning experience. Active-learning, collaborative learning, blended pedagogies and flexibility in deciding where, when and how they engage have now become mainstreamed (Gaebel, Kupriyanova, Morais, & Colucci, 2014). In the peer leader training and development landscape, blended pedagogical approaches are typically not applied; however, if adopted, they have the potential to similarly transform the learning experience. This article describes a student-centred blended and flipped classroom model of peer leader training that aims to establish a more flexible, connected, coherent and deeper student learning experience.
Can you teach an old dog new tricks? Institution-wide pedagogical reform at an elite university in Ireland
Authors: Share Michelle , O'Farrell Ciara
Published: July 2017

Institution-wide pedagogical reforms are common across higher education institutions. Such reforms may be driven by rationalisation as well as recognition of the need to provide students with interdisciplinary learning experiences that equip them with the “social and analytic competencies needed in contemporary careers outside the academy” (British Academy, 2016, p.5). This paper reports on an institution-wide pedagogical reform initiative, the Trinity Education Project (TEP), at Trinity College Dublin, an elite and ancient Irish university. We describe the development of the TEP and the implementation of its Assessment Framework, which aims to bring diversity into teaching, learning and assessment through the assessment of graduate attributes in a system strongly focused on assessment of learning, examinations and lectures. Reflections on challenges are presented. Discussion centres on the extent to which it is possible, and the best approach, to achieve consensus in an educational system where autonomous disciplinary structures and traditions prevail.
Live, Learn, Grow: Supporting young people with a care experience through higher education
Authors: Rak Louise , Fuller Emily
Published: July 2017

Developed through research and community collaboration with the out-of-home care (OOHC) sector, including people with lived experience and local providers, Live, Learn, Grow aims to address some of the barriers faced by care leavers in learning about, accessing and engaging in higher education. Over 40,000 children and young people in Australia are currently in OOHC. Research shows Australians who have a previous OOHC experience are less likely to commence and complete tertiary education, and more likely to be unemployed, or employed in low paid, low skilled roles. Through collaboration with local agencies, Live, Learn, Grow has provided information about higher education pathways to young people in care, as well as on-campus experience days. The Navigator/Linker role has also provided support for first-year university students, with participants highlighting this support as a key factor in their decision to remain engaged in university study past their first month.
SUSPENSÃO DE AULAS DE EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA COMO FORMA DE PUNIÇÃO: A PERCEPÇÃO DISCENTE
Authors: De Paula Eliana De Jesus , Paixão Jairo Antônio , Oliveira Emerson Cruz
Published: July 2017

O estudo analisou a percepção de alunos do 4º ano do ensino fundamental I que vivenciaram situações de suspensão da Educação Física em decorrência de atitude indisciplinar nas aulas de outros componentes curriculares. A partir de uma investigação de campo, descritiva e de cunho qualitativo verificou-se que os alunos demonstram desconhecimento sobre a importância da Educação Física na sua formação. Dentre os motivos destacados pelos alunos como comportamento indisciplinar destacaram “fazer bagunça”; “não fazer dever”; “esquecer os livros em casa”; e “bater no colega”. A estratégia de suspensão das aulas de Educação Física como punição se mostrou ineficaz, haja vista a grande reincidência tanto dos alunos como dos atos infracionais cometidos.

O Estágio Curricular Supervisionado (ECS) na formação de professores de Educação Física (EF), ao longo das últimas três décadas, vem passando por transformações no sentido de fortalecer esta etapa da formação inicial, aproximando o acadêmico de seu futuro campo profissional e do cotidiano docente. Dessa forma, o objetivo da pesquisa foi, por meio de uma análise documental, apresentar e discutir as principais leis que sustentam e subsidiam o ECS na formação de professores de EF no Brasil, a partir da Resolução CFE 03/1987. No campo burocrático e documental, constataram-se avanços importantes que favoreceram a organização e estruturação do ECS como um momento fundamental no processo de ensino e aprendizagem na formação dos futuros professores de EF.

NOTAS INTRODUTÓRIAS SOBRE A RELAÇÃO ENTRE A TEORIA DO CAPITAL SOCIAL E ATIVIDADE FÍSICA
Authors: Bendrath Eduard Angelo
Published: July 2017

O objetivo da presente revisão foi tentar estabelecer possíveis associações entre a teoria do capital social e atividade física a partir de estudos internacionais publicados na base de dados ScienceDirect. Baseado na abordagem qualitativa, e usando do processo de revisão sistemática de literatura, buscou-se através de descritores e operadores lógicos artigos com a temática proposta. Analisou-se o capital social a partir da estrutura e intensidade que fundamenta as relações sociais de uma comunidade a partir da confiança, solidariedade, reciprocidade e participação cívica. Sugere-se que a atividade física e estado de saúde podem ser considerados fatores resultantes do acúmulo de capital social, potencializando a criação e manutenção de círculos virtuosos de participação popular reduzindo os índices de inatividade física.

FOTOGRAFIAS DO BASQUETEBOL NA CIDADE DO RIO GRANDE/RS: MEMÓRIAS ESPORTIVAS
Authors: França Mateus Trevisan , Marchi Júnior Wanderley
Published: July 2017

Este artigo explorará fontes fotográficas sobre o basquetebol na cidade do Rio Grande/RS nas décadas de 1960 e 1970, para fazer uma problematização histórica da representatividade do basquetebol para a memória da cidade. Para isso discutiremos sociologicamente até que ponto elas devem ser tratadas como documentos de memória. Primeiramente apresentaremos brevemente nossa abordagem das fontes fotográficas e um breve histórico da cidade. Após essas apresentações utilizaremos nosso material imagético para montar uma linha cronológica da modalidade e utilizaremos nosso referencial teórico para discutir nosso objeto através dessas fotografias. Por fim faremos algumas considerações finais sobre a representação do basquetebol local apontada ao longo do trabalho.

Published: July 2017

Busca-se com o presente artigo caracterizar e analisar os Jogos Estudantis da Rede Pública da Bahia (JERP), da etapa regional da Diretoria de Educação de Ilhéus-Bahia, a partir de uma pesquisa documental com os relatórios dos JERP, especificamente nos anos de 2008 e 2014. Os dados coletados apontam que houve um aumento de 77% do número de escolas participantes, aumentando consequentemente os professores e alunos envolvidos. Verificou-se a relevância desses jogos para a comunidade escolar, visto que estes têm buscado criar condições que oportunizem a participação de crianças e jovens no aprendizado do esporte educacional. Ressalta-se, contudo, que à medida que os jogos evoluíram, sobretudo, em quantitativo, os mesmos retrocederam no que diz respeito à participação de professores graduados em Educação Física.

Authors: Kawashima Larissa Beraldo , Moreira Evando Carlos
Published: July 2017

Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a produção científica em pesquisa-ação na área da Educação Física escolar a partir das dissertações e teses encontrados no banco de dados da Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD) e no Banco de teses da CAPES, de 1992 a setembro de 2015. A pesquisa evidenciou a baixa produção científica em programas de pós-graduação que contemplem a pesquisa-ação como método de pesquisa da prática pedagógica do próprio pesquisador que a realizou ou de uma proposta de intervenção pelo pesquisador, tendo como resultado apenas 17 trabalhos. Outro dado relevante é a concentração das pesquisas no Ensino Fundamental, indicando a necessidade de mais pesquisas-ação principalmente no Ensino Médio.

ENVI and ArcGIS software along with Landsat TM data were used to evaluate sustainability and environmental conservation efforts in Sudbury region, Ontario, Canada. The study adopted three phase analysis. First, the change in landscape from 1984 to 2007 was studied. In the second part the study area was analyzed for urban heat island phenomenon by comparing thermal changes in relation to vegetation changes. The last part dealt with observing change in water quality parameter. Findings of the study revealed that significant change has taken place in Sudbury during the study period. Post classification comparison method has quantified the change and presented the results in the form of a change matrix, also an increase in the reclaimed land and dense vegetation in 2007 was observed while a significant decrease in the built up and barren land was also evident. Thermal analysis results showed overall higher temperatures in 1984 while the thermal signatures of 2007 images showed characteristic of urban heat island where urban core of Sudbury had high temperatures while the rural and vegetative areas had low temperatures. The water quality analysis showed an increase in the levels of phosphorus and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in lakes around Sudbury with the exception of Kelly Lake. The error analysis shown regression-derived phosphorus distribution maps were unreliable in this application, due to significant average error.

Published: July 2017

Objective: The objective of the study is to describe pertinent clinical features of vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) seen in public primary school children in Nigeria, Africa.Methods: A cross sectional survey of children with VKC was conducted in a population of school children using a multistage sampling method. Comprehensive eye examinations were conducted including visual acuity, refraction, anterior and posterior segment examinations, ocular adnexal examinations and symptomatic break up time (SBUT) for tear assessment.Results: Out of 1,226 primary school children examined, 223 children had VKC. The most common complaints were itching 150 (67.3%), brownish discoloration of the eyes 132 (59.2%) and stringy mucoid discharge 109 (48.9%). The total prevalence of atopy in this population was 30%. Normal vision was seen in 223 (100%) children, while 5 (0.9%) children presented with monocular moderate visual impairment. Ptosis from VKC was seen as a significant (p < .0001) finding in the tarsal clinical type 55 (24.7%) and 60 (26.9%) right and left eyes respectively. Left eye lid chalazion was also significantly associated with tarsal type of VKC (p < .0001). Common corneal complications noted were sub epithelial scarring 22 (9.9%) and pseudogerontoxon 7 (3.1%). Symptomatic tear film break-up time of < 5 seconds was seen more frequently among children 156 (70%) with VKC even though this was not statistically significant (p = .737).Conclusion: The clinical features of VKC is similar to most population studies, including corneal complications. Eye lid pathologies including chalazion, external hordealon and ptosis were common features seen in this population. Better primary eye care for the management of VKC in children may prevent corneal complication.
