Construção de um plano individual de intervenção precoce: um caso que justifica a intervenção centrada na família
Creators: name: Melo, Ana

Publisher: name: Interacções
Year: 2014

description: Para apoiar uma criança que apresentava o seu desenvolvimento global comprometido, foi necessário realizar uma avaliação ecológica à família. Observou-se o desenvolvimento da criança através da Escala The Schedule of Growing Skills II (GS) (Bellman, Lingman, & Aukett, 1996) e de observações em contexto de sala e visitas domiciliárias. À família foram aplicados diversos instrumentos de forma a obter uma visão holística: Ficha de anamnese; mapas de rotinas da criança (Fuertes, 2010); inventários das necessidades, forças e recursos da família (Bailey & Simeonsson, 1988) e registo das relações afetivas e de vinculação mãe/criança através da aplicação do Care-Index (Crittenden, 2003).

Foi possível detetar inúmeros problemas: falta de estimulação e atenção privilegiada; rotinas pouco adequadas; más condições de habitação, saúde e alimentação; baixo estatuto socioeconómico; situação de exclusão social.

Neste sentido, e com base nas necessidades apontadas pela família, tornou-se necessário delinear um plano de intervenção, centrado na família, considerando-se o modelo bioecológico e transacional (Bronfenbrenner & Morris, 1998; Sameroff & Chandler, 1975). Procurou-se definir objetivos/estratégias alcançáveis e viáveis que permitissem uma maior colaboração e envolvimento da mesma.
 As considerações finais referem que as estratégias e principais resultados obtidos de acordo com o modelo de referência, permitiram verificar a viabilidade do Plano Individual de Intervenção Precoce e (re)definir novas estratégias.

Year: 2015

description: Este artigo apresenta a perspetiva holística para a avaliação das aprendizagens desenvolvida pela Associação Criança que se desenvolve em coerência com a teoria educativa que sustenta a Pedagogia-em-Participação (perspetiva pedagógica para a educação de infância). O itinerário para desenvolver o artigo é de natureza evolutiva, acompanha as decisões feitas para definir a aproximação à avaliação ao longo do tempo da sua constituição. A conclusão do artigo revela o papel central da documentação na avaliação de natureza pedagógica que respeita a aprendizagem holística da criança, partindo do quotidiano por ela vivido, em interação com os pares, a educadora, a equipa educativa. Visibiliza-se, nesta forma de avaliação, a integração entre o fazer, o sentir e o aprender da criança. Visibiliza-se também o papel do profissional como ator privilegiado para fazer uma avaliação contínua e autêntica que faça justiça à integração dos processos e das realizações, através da prática dialógica entre documentação e avaliação.

description: Partindo da ideia de que a racionalidade existente na organização intencional de contextos de aprendizagem, na Educação de Infância, exige uma avaliação, esta reflexão procura tornar evidente a forte relação, do ponto de vista conceptual, entre o currículo e a avaliação.
 Após a discussão, em termos gerais, da evolução dos modelos curriculares, como referenciais da prática pedagógica, envereda-se pela análise de três modelos pedagógicos específicos de Educação de Infância: o modelo High Scope, o modelo do Movimento da Escola Moderna - MEM, e o modelo de Reggio Emilia, deles extraindo o papel fundamental da observação (participante) na avaliação, enquanto ferramenta imprescindível para a promoção de aprendizagens significativas.

description: We study the Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET) rate in multichromophoric systems. The multichromophoric FRET rate is determined by the overlap integral of the donor's emission and acceptor's absorption spectra, which are obtained via 2nd-order cumulant expansion techniques developed in this work. We calculate the spectra and multichromophoric FRET rate for both localized and delocalized systems. (i) The role of the initial entanglement between the donor and its bath is found to be crucial in both the emission spectrum and the multichromophoric FRET rate. (ii) The absorption spectra obtained by the cumulant expansion method are quite close to the exact one for both localized and delocalized systems, even when the system-bath coupling is far from the perturbative regime. (iii) For the emission spectra, the cumulant expansion can give very good results for the localized system, but fail to obtain reliable spectra of the high excitations of a delocalized system, when the system-bath coupling is large and the thermal energy is small. (iv) Even though, the multichromophoric FRET rate is good enough since it is determined by the overlap integral of the spectra.

Factors Affecting the Adoption of Electronic Payment on Cash Transfer Program in Ethiopia: The Case of M-Birr and Ethiopia Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP)
Creators: name: Shentema Woldesenbet Gurmessa
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors affecting the adoption of electronic payment on cash transfer program in Ethiopia in the case of M-Birr and Ethiopia Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP). A sample of 390 respondents were drawn from fifteen (15) woredas households of the four regional governments (Amhara, Oromia, SNNP and Tigray) of Ethiopia where a structured questionnaire was distributed to these samples. However, the response rate from among the intended samples was only 95.4% therefore; around 372 responses were found to be workable by this study. SPSS V 24.0 was used to analyze the data collected and to test the hypotheses put forward. Descriptive Research and Explanatory Research design was employed in order to identify the extent at which the independent variables affect the dependent variable. Multiple regression analysis was used in establishing the significance of the relationship. The findings of this study then show that factors namely convenience and relative advantage have a positive and significant relationship with electronic cash transfer adoption in Ethiopia which led to, the acceptance of hypothesis two and four. From hypothesis three, perceived risk was found to have a significant negative influence on electronic cash transfer adoption, meaning hypothesis three was supported.

description: We present a large-scale, interferometric survey of ammonia (1,1) and (2,2) toward the Galactic Center observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The survey covers Delta l ~1degree (~150pc) at an assumed distance of 8.5 kpc) and Delta b ~0.2degree (~30pc) which spans the region between the supermassive black hole SgrA* and the massive star forming region SgrB2. The resolution is ~20'' (~0.8pc) and emission at scales >~2' (>~3.2pc) is filtered out due to missing interferometric short spacings. Consequently, the data represent the denser, compact clouds and disregards the large scale, diffuse gas. Many of the clumps align with the 100 pc dust ring and mostly anti-correlate with 1.2cm continuum emission. We present a kinetic temperature map of the dense gas. The temperature distribution peaks at ~38K with a width at half maximum between 18K and 61K (measurements sensitive within Tkin~10-80K). Larger clumps are on average warmer than smaller clumps which suggests internal heating sources. Our observations indicate that the circumnuclear disk ~1.5 pc around SgrA* is supplied with gas by the 20km/s molecular cloud. This gas is substantially cooler than gas ~3-15pc away from SgrA*. We find a strong temperature gradient across SgrB2. Ammonia column densities correlate well with SCUBA 850um fluxes, but the relation is shifted from the origin, which may indicate a requirement for a minimum amount of dust to form and shield ammonia. Around the Arches and Quintuplet clusters we find shell morphologies with UV-influenced gas in their centers, followed by ammonia and radio continuum layers.

description: After an initial transient period, the conduction regime in a 1D superconducting wire that carries a fixed current is either normal or periodic or stationary. The phase diagram for these possibilities was studied in Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 99}, 167003 (2007) for particular values of the length and the material parameters. We have extended this study to arbitrary length and to a range of material parameters that includes realistic values. Variation of the length leads to scaling laws for the phase diagram. Variation of the material parameters leads to new qualitative features and new phases, including a parameter region in which all three regimes are possible.
Hydrology and Water Quality in the Central Kentucky Karst: Phase 1
Creators: name: Quinlan, James F.

Publisher: name: Kentucky Water Resources Research Institute, University of Kentucky
Year: 1977

description: Abstract:
Study of springs and cave streams has shown that heavy metal-rich effluent from a wastewater treatment plant can be traced to Hidden River Cave (beneath the city of Horse Cave) and thence 4 to 5 miles north to a group of 39 springs at 14 locations along a 5-mile reach of Green River. Nickel, chromium, copper and zinc in these effluent-bearing springs are in concentrations of as much as 30 times greater than other springs upstream and downstream from this reach, 20 times greater than the Green River, and 60 times greater than in shallow domestic wells between Horse Cave and the river. Mean concentration ratios, based on samples taken during moderate to flood flow, are considerably lower. Although the heavy metal content of the effluent-bearing stream in Hidden River Cave greatly exceeds various maximum concentrations set by current standards, the concentrations in the effluent-bearing springs do not exceed current maximums allowed for public water supplies. None of the domestic shallow wells between the cave and the river intercept this effluent-rich water.
The distributary system that was postulated to feed the 39 springs was entered by digging in June 1975; 14.6 miles of this floodwater maze has been mapped.
Water tracing over distances of as much as 15 miles has made it possible to delineate thirteen groundwater basins, eleven of them characterized by distributary flow. Study of the water quality· of five adjacent groundwater basins showed that they could be geochemically differentiated. One of these, the Three-Springs Groundwater Basin, has a distributary complex that is 2.4 miles wide and its discharge is believed to be affected by brines released by drilling.
Dendritic flow paths, identified by dye-traces to and from caves (and mapping of these caves), have been recognized in the Turnhole Spring Groundwater Basin (Quinlan, 1976) and the Graham Springs Groundwater Basin. Flow converges to trunk streams as much as 40 ft wide that may rise and fall as much as 100 ft in response to heavy rains. Groundwater velocities in the upper part of the principal aquifer range from 30 ft per hour to 1300 ft per hour, depending upon the duration and intensity of rains.
Recommendations are made for: 1) the use of drainage basin maps for regional planning and protection of water supplies, 2) protection of other water supplies, and 3) development of specific springs as potential public water supplies.

description: We report results of a muon spin rotation and relaxation ($μ$SR) study of dilute Pd$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$ alloys, with emphasis on Ni concentrations $x =$ 0.0243 and 0.025. These are close to the critical value $x_\mathrm{cr}$ for the onset of ferromagnetic long-range order (LRO), which is a candidate for a quantum critical point. The 2.43 and 2.5 at.% Ni alloys exhibit similar $μ$SR properties. Both samples are fully magnetic, with average muon local fields $\langle B^\mathrm{loc}\rangle =$ 2.0 and 3.8 mT and Curie temperatures $T_C =$ 1.0 and 2.03 K for 2.43 and 2.5 at.% Ni, respectively, at $T = 0$. The temperature dependence of $\langle B^\mathrm{loc}\rangle$ suggests ordering of Ni spin clusters rather than isolated spins. Just above $T_C$ a two-phase region is found with separate volume fractions of quasistatic short-range order (SRO) and paramagnetism. The SRO fraction decreases to zero with increasing temperature a few kelvin above $T_C$. This mixture of SRO and paramagnetism is consistent with the notion of an inhomogeneous alloy with Ni clustering. The measured values of $T_C$ extrapolate to $x_\mathrm{cr}$ = 0.0236 $\pm$ 0.0027. The dynamic muon spin relaxation in the vicinity of $T_C$ differs for the two samples: a relaxation-rate maximum at $T_C$ is observed for $x$ = 0.0243, reminiscent of critical slowing down, whereas for $x =$ 0.025 no dynamic relaxation is observed within the $μ$SR time window. The data suggest a mean-field-like transition in this alloy.

description: Consumption of the Mediterranean dietary pattern (MedDiet) is associated with reduced risk of numerous non-communicable diseases. Modulation of the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiota represents a potential mechanism through which the MedDiet elicits these effects. We conducted a systematic literature search (Prospero registration: CRD42020168977) using PubMed, The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, SPORTDiscuss, Scopus and CINAHL databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies exploring the impact of a MedDiet on gut microbiota composition (i.e., relative abundance of bacteria or diversity metrics) and metabolites (e.g., short chain fatty acids). Seventeen RCTs and 17 observational studies were eligible for inclusion in this review. Risk of bias across the studies was mixed but mainly identified as low and unclear. Overall, RCTs and observational studies provided no clear evidence of a consistent effect of a MedDiet on composition or metabolism of the gut microbiota. These findings may be related to the diverse methods across studies (e.g., MedDiet classification and analytical techniques), cohort characteristics, and variable quality of studies. Further, well-designed studies are warranted to advance understanding of the potential effects of the MedDiet using more detailed examination of microbiota and microbial metabolites with reference to emerging characteristics of a healthy gut microbiome. This systematic review explored effects of the Mediterranean diet on the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiota in both randomized controlled trials and observational studies. Although there is some evidence from a small number of studies indicated a positive impact of a Mediterranean diet on select microbiota, the findings of this systematic review suggest that this dietary pattern does not consistently alter microbiota composition or metabolism. The lack of a consistent effect could be related to methodological differences between studies, especially differences in the composition of the Mediterranean diet administered.
Moutinho, José Viale (2012). Teatro Depressinha. 5 Pequenas Peças de Teatro
Creators: name: Coelho, Leonor Martins
Publisher: name: Revista Portuguesa de Educação Artística
Year: 2013

description: Artefacto plural e educativo, o último livro de recepção infantil de José Viale Moutinho vem porfiar a ideia de como o teatro pode e deve ser entendido como uma arte expressiva, descomplexada e eficaz, enquanto experiência formativa intensa. Com essa arte performativa, é, então, possível instruir, divertindo, o jovem receptor. Dirigido, sensivelmente, a um leitor de 5 aos 10 anos, o livro que veio a lume em 2012, reúne três linguagens distintas mas convergentes. Em primeiro lugar, o texto colocado no começo do livro, em jeito de prefácio, intitulado “De Élvio Camacho, encenador e ator”, apresenta-se como um “modo de instrução” para explorar os meios dramatúrgicos que as cinco pequenas peças de Viale Moutinho reclamam. Quanto aos textos para teatro propriamente ditos, estes recuperam ora o tema do menino traquinas (“O menino lá do fundo da sala” e “aquele menino que se porta tão mal”), ora o tópico do teatro-circo (“Dom Adivinhão”), ora o universo da literatura oral e tradicional, de que o autor é um acérrimo defensor (“O tesouro do cego” e “Um favorzinho”). Na verdade, o engenho do autor consiste em fazer cruzar nas suas “pequenas comédias” todas essas fantasias e discursos.

description: Spin transport efficiency in heterostructures depends on the spin conductances of each constituent and their interfaces. We report a comparative study of spin pumping in Y3Fe5O12/Cu/Pt and Y3Fe5O12/Cu/W trilayers. Surprisingly, the insertion of a Cu interlayer between Y3Fe5O12 and W substantially improves (over a factor of 4) the spin current injection into W while similar insertion between Y3Fe5O12 and Pt degrades the spin current. This is a consequence of a much improved Y3Fe5O12/Cu spin mixing conductance relative to that for Y3Fe5O12/W. This result implies the possibility of engineered heterostructures with matching spin conductances to enable optimal spin transport efficiency.

description: The boundary thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (BTBA) equations introduced in arXiv:1203.1913 and arXiv:1203.1617 to describe the cusp anomalous dimension contain imaginary chemical potentials and singular boundary fugacities, which make its systematic expansion problematic. We propose an alternative formulation based on real chemical potentials and additional source terms. We expand our equations to double wrapping order and find complete agreement with the direct two-loop gauge theory computation of the cusp anomalous dimension.

description: The benefits of dietary fiber on intestinal health have been well established. However, there is no consensus on the dietary fiber effects on mineral absorption. The objective of this systematic review is to discuss the evidence on the dietary fiber effects on iron absorption and iron status-related biomarkers. A comprehensive search of 3 databases: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science was carried out. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, and a total of 32 studies were included with 9 of them clinical studies and 23 in vivo. The studies included assessment of dietary fiber in the form of fructo-oligosaccharides, galacto-oligosaccharides, inulin, pectin, guar gum, oligofructose, xylo-oligosaccharides, and mannan-oligosaccharide. Hemoglobin (n = 21) and fractional iron absorption (n = 6) were the most frequently reported outcomes. The results showed no significant correlations between consumption of dietary fiber to iron absorption/status-related biomarkers. However, the current evidence may not be substantial to invalidate the recommendation of dietary fiber as an agent to improve dietary iron bioavailability, and absorption. In conclusion, there is a need to conduct further clinical trials with long dietary fiber intervention focusing on population at high risk for iron deficiency.

description: We introduce a strong notion of quasiconvexity in finitely generated groups, which we call stability. Stability agrees with quasiconvexity in hyperbolic groups and is preserved under quasi-isometry for finitely generated groups. We show that the stable subgroups of mapping class groups are precisely the convex cocompact subgroups. This generalizes a well-known result of Behrstock and is related to questions asked by Farb-Mosher and Farb.

description: We study experimentally a round Jet In CrossFlow (JICF) at low values of the jet to-crossflow velocity ratio R using instantaneous and time-averaged three-dimensions three-components (3D3C) velocimetry. The difference between instantaneous and time-averaged swirling structures of the JICF is emphasized. Through the analysis of spatial distribution of instantaneous transverse and longitudinal vortices the main transitions of the JICF are characterized for 0.15 < R < 2.2. A new transition at very low velocity ratio is found (R < 0.3). When R is large enough (R > 1.25), the classic JICF topology is recovered. In between, a deformation of the classical JICF topology is observed consisting in a progressive disappearance of the leading-edge vortices, a bending of the jet trajectory and thus a strengthened interaction with the boundary layer. toward the wall. Thanks to a state-of-the-art review on the JICF topology and using visualizations of the flow structures extracted from our experimental volumetric velocimetry measurements, this article provides a complete transition scenario of the JICF topology from the high velocity ratios to the lowest ones, and gives the topological transition threshold associated with each kind of vortex.

description: Coordination in multi-agent system is very essential, in order to perform complex tasks and lead MAS towards its goal. Also, the member agents of multi-agent system should be autonomous as well as collaborative to accomplish the complex task for which multi-agent system is designed specifically. Contract-Net Protocol (CNP) is one of the coordination mechanisms which is used by multi-agent systems which prefer coordination through interaction protocols. In order to overcome the limitations of conventional CNP, this paper proposes a modification in conventional CNP called updated-CNP. Updated-CNP is an effort towards updating of a CNP in terms of its limitations of modifiability and communication overhead. The limitation of the modification of tasks, if the task requirements change at any instance, corresponding to tasks which are allocated to contractor agents by manager agents is possible in our updated-CNP version, which was not possible in the case of conventional-CNP, as it has to be restarted in the case of task modification. This in turn will be reducing the communication overhead of CNP, which is time taken by various agents using CNP to pass messages to each other. For the illustration of the updated CNP, we have used a sound predator-prey case study.

title: DEVELOPMENT OF A REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT FOR FUSION REACTORS
Creators: name: Nguyen, Tu
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository

description: The growing interest in nuclear energy in response to the rising cost of energy has brought forward the potential of fusion energy. Nuclear fusion has been developed since the 1970s; however, the commercial realisation of fusion energy has only gained some significant progress in recent years. The need for an economic fusion design and a clear regulatory framework were emphasised across the industry.

An innovative methodology was developed to investigate the key differences in safety designs and regulatory requirements between nuclear reactor types by mapping nuclear safety features to regulatory fundamental principles. Safety features were extracted from safety cases of two research reactors, including a research fusion reactor (Joint European Torus) and a research fission reactor (Tsing Hua Open-pool Reactor), and a safety case of a commercial fission reactor (Hinkley Point C). A comparative analysis based on the maps has revealed differences between hazards profiles of fission and fusion reactors. Furthermore, the three maps formed a basis for the development of a regulatory safety map for a commercial fusion reactor. A predicted map was produced, which demonstrated a significant increase in the number of safety features compared in the commercial fusion reactor compared with research ones. Additionally, the map also revealed an order of priority in the safety designs of different design areas. Qualitative data using a semi-structured interviews were conducted to investigate the current practice in the safety design of a commercial fusion reactor, which was used to validate the prediction methodology.

The successful delivery of a fusion design relies on an effective design approach to overcome the complexity of fusion reactors. An investigation into the challenges in implementing concurrent engineering design process was conducted through a literature review. Three major challenges were identified: effective communication systems, implementation of design reviews and compatibility of tools. Key attributes and capabilities of an integrated digital environment were identified and examined for the potential in overcome these challenges. A case study was conducted in the STEP programme at UKAEA to study the current design process of a commercial fusion reactor. The study revealed that the use of simulations models and digital tools has helped reducing some level of these challenges; however, they still exist. It was highlighted that an integrated digital environment is needed to effectively implement a concurrent design approach.
