Book excerpt: A XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis faz parte do espírito de celebração acadêmica, de diálogo científico e de reconhecimento que movem nossa comunidade de ensino e pesquisa. Dentre as principais tarefas da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica, destacam-se a celebração das metas já alcançadas, a consciência dos limites dos saberes adquiridos, o reconhecimento da complementariedade na diversidade dos temas, problemas e métodos científicos, e, a projeção do futuro de nossa comunidade sobre o vasto universo da pesquisa. A ampliação dos horizontes de nossa Universidade exige sempre mais daqueles que se unem em razão da busca da verdade através da pesquisa acadêmica. Graças à maturidade de seus cursos de graduação e à gradativa consolidação de seus programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu, a Universidade Católica de Petrópolis oferece um campo cada vez mais amplo de oportunidades e desafios para a iniciação à investigação científica. A publicação dos Anais da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis demonstra o compromisso institucional com a divulgação da produção científica. Ao serem publicados na forma de Anais, os resumos dos projetos de pesquisa oferecem um panorama sintético do que se realiza com os recursos do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) e da Fundação Celso da Rocha Miranda (FCRM). Os organizadores da presente publicação agradecem à Reitoria da Universidade pela confiança nos trabalhos de iniciação científica, desenvolvidos pelo seu corpo docente e discente. Agradecem aos docentes, externos e internos, responsáveis pela criteriosa seleção dos projetos contemplados pelo Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica (PIBIC/CNPq e PIBIC/FCRM). Agradecem também a todos os que aderiram à atual proposta de publicação, enviando no prazo os seus resumos aos cuidados da Coordenação Geral de Pesquisa e Pós-Graduação. Agradecem, enfim, aos funcionários da UCP, que tornaram possível a realização em 29 de outubro de 2014 da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis. Esperamos que essa obra seja uma justa memória e, sobretudo, um sincero reconhecimento aos professores e aos jovens pesquisadores da UCP pela perseverança na árdua e gratificante busca do saber.

Book excerpt: A iniciação científica (IC) pode ser entendida sob duas perspectivas dentro do ensino superior. Na primeira, é um processo que abarca todas as experiências vivenciadas pelo aluno durante a graduação, com o objetivo de promover o seu envolvimento com a pesquisa e, consequentemente, sua formação científica, incluindo programas de treinamento, desenvolvimento de estudos sobre a metodologia científica (dentro de uma disciplina ou não), visitas programadas a institutos de pesquisa e a indústrias etc. Na segunda, adotada neste livro, a IC é definida como o desenvolvimento de um projeto de pesquisa elaborado e realizado sob orientação de um docente da universidade, executado com ou sem bolsa para os alunos. O conjunto de textos aqui reunidos promove a socialização de diferentes teorias e práticas sobre a IC no contexto de sua ação formadora, além de relatar percursos, discutir fundamentos e oferecer contribuições que permitam uma melhor orientação aos gestores e discentes participantes e interessados nessa atividade. Os ensaios tratam de amplo espectro de temas correlatos: as implicações e perspectivas da pesquisa nas universidades brasileiras; o desenvolvimento e a abrangência dos programas nacionais de pesquisa sobre a iniciação científica; os efeitos dos fatores socioeconômicos e culturais no acesso à bolsa de iniciação científica; o trabalho do professor pesquisador no PIBIC/CNPq; a bolsa de iniciação científica e os grupos de pesquisa; e, por fim, a pesquisa na graduação e sua importância no Programa Institucional de Bolsas de IC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook presents an overview of research on test anxiety and related forms of students’ stress and anxiety at schools and other academic environments, and also brings together a series of psychological interventions to prevent and treat anxiety disorders related to academic assessments. Its aim is to inform about strategies that help promote more adaptive behaviors towards academic assessment, as well as discuss other variables (e.g., bullying) that influence test anxiety, a typical stressor at the school and academic environment. These stressors can impair the students’ socio-cognitive development, impairing their ability to study and posing a risk to their mental health. The volume is organized in three parts. The first part brings together chapters discussing different variables and processes associated with academic anxiety, such as test anxiety and social influence, academic motivation, bullying, and procrastination. The second part is completely dedicated to psychological interventions with students designed to promote adaptive coping strategies to deal with academic anxiety and to prevent the development of psychopathologies associated with it. These interventions are based on different approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, analytic behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and mindfulness, among others. Finally, the third part presents strategies that teachers can adopt to manage academic anxiety. The Handbook of Stress and Academic Anxiety: Psychological Processes and Interventions with Students and Teachers will be a valuable resource for school and clinical psychologists, teachers, school managers and policy makers by providing information based on the best scientific evidences to help students cope with academic anxiety, prevent the development of psychopathologies associated with it and promote mental health at schools and other academic environments.

This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an innovative method to investigate the history of mathematics education using oral narratives to study different aspects related to the teaching and learning of mathematics. The application of oral history in mathematics education research was first developed as a method in Brazil in the early 2000s as a result of interdisciplinary dialogues between mathematics educators, anthropologists, sociologists, historians, psychologists, artists and philosophers. Since then, this new methodology has attracted the attention of a growing number of researchers. This contributed volume is the first book in English to bring together chapters written by different members of the research group who developed the methodology and to present a comprehensive overview of the theoretical and practical aspects of the use of oral narratives in the study of experiences in mathematics classrooms. Oral History and Mathematics Education will be a useful tool to researchers and educators looking for new methods to study the dynamics of teaching and learning mathematics in the classroom and to develop innovative mathematics teacher education programs. The volume will also be of interest to historians of education since it describes the foundations of both concepts and procedures related to the application of oral history in educational research, always giving examples of studies already conducted and, whenever possible, suggesting possible research exercises.

This book was released on 2021-09-13 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maybe the Global Village metaphor has never been more accurate than it is today, where societies join forces in the fight against the COVID 19 pandemic, in a global coordinated effort, possibly never tested before in the known history of Humankind. Although we are sure that in the past some other shared demands have united the different peoples of the world, this has never been so strongly necessary, mainly in what the global scientific community is concerned. This is a fight for the survival of a society. However, we should not lose sight of what we are fighting for. We fight together for people. Not just for the abstract value of Human life, but for life in society as a whole, including its moral and ethical aspects. The topics of this book are based on this claim, on what makes it possible. We do not build our lives in a vacuum, or in distant Invisible Cities, but through a higher value, which represents physical life in society: the City, built by the discipline of Urbanism. This book is a spin-off of the International Research Seminar on Urbanism_SIIU2020. Inspired by the contents of twelve research seminars, a group of researchers from the universities of Barcelona, Lisbon and São Paulo discuss the contemporary agenda of research in Urbanism. Following the conference, a selection of 35 original double-blind peer-reviewed research papers were brought together with different perspectives about such an agenda.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The educational provision for early years is growing and changing across many parts of the world, not least in the UK. While this book leans heavily on the mounting literature on early child development in its broadest sense – physically, emotionally, linguistically – its central focus lies squarely on the growth of children’s scientific thinking and activities. Written by educators, this book is based both on formal educational research and professional practice-in-action. The authors describe children’s science concept development; their curiosity-driven exploration; emergent ecological literacy; their learning through science play; the assessment of early learning; the role of parents and practitioners within early education contexts; and some question the very basis of the science being taught. Illustrations and examples of practice are not confined to the UK, though the messages to be derived from each chapter have application way beyond the immediate context. This book was originally published as a special issue of Early Child Development and Care.

This book was released on 2007-02-01 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este trabalho resulta de uma investigação em Museologia e Património Cultural sobre a concetualização do Museu Nacional da Ciência e da Técnica (1971-1976). Pretende-se dar a conhecer o contexto em que emerge o Museu, as suas influências, a sua estrutura, a sua projeção e dificuldade de reconhecimento no seio da comunidade museológica. Este Museu foi pensado e construído por Mário Silva, eminente físico conimbricense, que se doutorou com a Nobel Madame Marie Curie, no início do século XX. O único Museu nacional dedicado à ciência e à tecnologia, classificado na chamada “primeira geração”, foi impulsionado sob a égide do então Ministro da Educação Nacional, o Prof. Veiga Simão, em tempo marcelista. Na época, Mário Silva e os seus colaboradores estudaram os melhores exemplos da museologia das ciências e das técnicas para desenharem um projeto ambicioso e atualizado. Percorre-se desde o Musée des Arts et Métiers parisiense ao Exploratorium de São Francisco para se conhecer os seus contributos na evolução da museologia e a sua influência no projeto português. A instalação condigna da sede do Museu, a ideia de instituto, de museu nacional, de descentralização, de rede guiaram as preocupações daquele mentor e nem sempre foram compreendidas ou levadas a bom termo. Merece destaque a atividade expositiva, logo desde 1973, constituindo a face visível do Museu. Na formação do “recheio” ou coleção, impressiona a pretensão de inventariar todo o material existente em estabelecimentos oficiais de ensino.

Book excerpt: Este livro que já se tornou uma referência no contexto da Biblioteconomia e da Ciência da Informação no Brasil, Ronaldo Vieira, nesta segunda edição, amplia o foco e traz um livro ainda mais abrangente e cuidadosamente estudado sobre a sua área de formação. Assim como aconteceu na primeira edição, Ronaldo Vieira mais uma vez dá um passo à frente e atualiza as reflexões sobre o contexto de pesquisa e trabalho dos bibliotecários na sociedade. Apresenta temas que estão na pauta dos estudiosos da área e também dentro das bibliotecas espalhadas pelo país. O papel da acessibilidade, a bibliologia, mediação de leitura literária assim como o papel fundamental das bibliotecas comunitárias no contexto da formação de leitores são alguns dos pontos fundamentais de discussão nesta nova edição. Um livro para todos os leitores. Vale o destaque humanista apresentado pelo autor sobre a área e a possibilidade de conhecer os debates em torno de questões de máxima urgência no contexto da sociedade da informação e do conhecimento. Sem dúvida, uma leitura obrigatória para aqueles que pretendem enveredar pelo campo da Biblioteconomia, conhecer um pouco mais essa ciência que se renova e acompanha as transformações tecnológicas e científicas do mundo.

Book excerpt: This book presents research in Geoscience Education focusing on indoor and outdoor environments in which teaching geoscience gains particular relevance, significance and contextualization. The research areas that are presented throughout the thirteen chapters cover a wide variety of subjects ranging from educational resources and fieldwork to science models. Chapters discuss specific geoscience topics such as earthquakes, rocks, fossils and minerals. Other chapters present a more interdisciplinary approach addressing topics that aren’t usually examined, such as geomedicine and geoethics, with a specific focus on sustainable development and their alignment with the school curricula. Throughout the book readers can find research-based arguments illustrated with practical examples, which will help them to innovate in their curriculum development area, classroom practices and pre and in-service teachers’ education. The book challenges readers to improve Geoscience Education by changing the ways of teaching, by enabling students to exploit their natural curiosity, and by spurring a learning process that should not be confined to the classroom but rather maintained throughout life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Portuguese Phonology provides an up-to-date description of the Portuguese phonological system, including a thorough account of the fundamental concepts, data, and previous explanations, as well as the status quaestionis, directions for future research, and further reading. Divided into five parts with contributions from leading international scholars and rising stars, the book’s 23 chapters provide a thorough account of the Portuguese sound system and a range of perspectives on Portuguese phonology. This is the most comprehensive volume on Portuguese phonology written in English, and it delves into the most pressing issues and challenges regarding a wide variety of topics, such as segmental and suprasegmental phenomena; aspects concerning the interfaces between phonology and other linguistic domains; and issues on synchronic variation, diachronic change, acquisition, and the teaching of Portuguese speech prosody to non-native learners. This in-depth resource will be invaluable for researchers and advanced students of Portuguese language and linguistics, as well as those interested in phonology and linguistics more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second handbook offers all new content in which readers will find a thoughtful and measured interrogation of significant contemporary thinking and practice in urban education. Each chapter reflects contemporary cutting-edge issues in urban education as defined by their local context. One important theme that runs throughout this handbook is how urban is defined, and under what conditions the marginalized are served by the schools they attend. Schooling continues to hold a special place both as a means to achieve social mobility and as a mechanism for supporting the economy of nations. This second handbook focuses on factors such as social stratification, segmentation, segregation, racialization, urbanization, class formation and maintenance, and patriarchy. The central concern is to explore how equity plays out for those traditionally marginalized in urban schools in different locations around the globe. Researchers will find an analysis framework that will make the current practice and outcomes of urban education, and their alternatives, more transparent, and in turn this will lead to solutions that can help improve the life-options for students historically underserved by urban schools.
