Práticas pedagógicas para mudanças de concepções de deficiências e atitudes sociais em relação à inclusão

O livro Práticas Pedagógicas para mudanças de concepções e deficiências e atitudes sociais em relação à inclusão representa duas grandes contribuições para área da Educação, em primeiro lugar a necessária compreensão das quatro deficiências mais frequentes: deficiência auditiva, deficiência física, deficiência visual e deficiência intelectual. Em segundo lugar, a possibilidade de conhecermos e pensarmos práticas pedagógicas que podem com objetivos definidos a partir das sugestões de um programa informativo, propiciar o desenvolvimento de mudanças de concepções de deficiências e atitudes sociais em relação à inclusão. Os principais resultados apresentados pelas autoras, Aline de Novaes Conceição e Maewa Martina Gomes da Silva e Souza, revelam que com a aplicação de um programa informativo relacionado com práticas pedagógicas inclusivas e com estratégias didático- metodológicas, é possível constituir um ambiente escolar harmonioso e inclusivo.

Population aging is a growing challenge worldwide. As such, new models of provision, organization, and allocation of resources, particularly in healthcare, are needed. As the self-care and long-term care needs of this age group become more prevalent, the importance of improved health services and effective health management strategies are apparent. The Handbook of Research on Health Systems and Organizations for an Aging Society provides emerging research exploring the challenges and opportunities for the development and management of health systems and organizations in relation to people aged 65 and over. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as emotional wellness, long-term care, and professional caregiving, this book is ideally designed for health technicians, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, hospital administrators, clinical directors, laboratory technicians, medical professionals, researchers, and students.

Technological innovation continues to be present in all areas of our lives, offering seemingly endless possibilities. As technology is increasingly implemented in healthcare applications, it is necessary to understand whether users respond to a predefined organizational strategy of model of care or whether they will become wholly dependent on the healthcare technology. This understanding is especially crucial when dealing with the possibility of generating inequities, especially with individuals that are elderly. Exploring the Role of ICTs in Healthy Aging is a collection of innovative research that proposes the detailed study of a strategic framework for the development of technological inn...

A educação das pessoas com deficiência vem exigindo novas posturas, sensibilidades e conhecimentos acerca do processo inclusivo. Nesse cenário, o atendimento inclusivo ao estudante jovem e adulto com deficiência intelectual que chega às etapas finais da escolarização básica, ou seja, anos finais do ensino fundamental e ensino médio da EJA, ainda é pouco discutido. A estruturação de um atendimento educacional especializado que contemple as especificidades desse público e a movimentação de práticas pedagógicas que estimulem a aprendizagem e o desenvolvimento são essenciais para o êxito da prática inclusiva. Nesse sentido, esta obra apresenta notas sobre esse atendimento a partir de um estudo prático, visando dar visibilidade à educação inclusiva nessa modalidade e suscitar resistências e motivações em todos os que acreditam e se posicionam ativamente por uma escola inclusiva com maior equidade ao estudante jovem ou adulto com deficiência intelectual.

That Hair

Finalist for the 2021 PEN Translation Prize A Best Translation of the Year at World Literature Today That Hair is a family album of sorts that touches upon the universal subjects of racism, feminism, colonialism, immigration, identity and memory. “The story of my curly hair,” says Mila, the narrator of Djaimilia Pereira de Almeida’s autobiographically inspired tragicomedy, “intersects with the story of at least two countries and, by extension, the underlying story of the relations among several continents: a geopolitics.” Mila is the Luanda-born daughter of a black Angolan mother and a white Portuguese father. She arrives in Lisbon at the tender age of three, and feels like an outs...

Pharmacoresistance in Epilepsy

Although more than 10 new antiepileptic drugs have been developed in the past decade, epilepsy remains resistant to drug therapy in about one third of patients, many of whom struggle with the disease their entire lives. Managing these patients is a challenge and requires a structured multidisciplinary approach. The book includes chapters on all issues related to pharmacoresistance in epilepsy and describes recent developments in the pathogenesis and treatment of this disorder. It addresses abnormalities in inhibitory mechanisms, epilepsy-related changes to the immune system, development of pharmacoresistance caused by chronic exposure to antiepileptic drugs, and novel therapeutic strategies ...

Biochar for Environmental Management

Biochar is the carbon-rich product when biomass (such as wood, manure or crop residues) is heated in a closed container with little or no available air. It can be used to improve agriculture and the environment in several ways, and its stability in soil and superior nutrient-retention properties make it an ideal soil amendment to increase crop yields. In addition to this, biochar sequestration, in combination with sustainable biomass production, can be carbon-negative and therefore used to actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, with major implications for mitigation of climate change. Biochar production can also be combined with bioenergy production through the use of the gases that are given off in the pyrolysis process. This book is the first to synthesize the expanding research literature on this topic. The book's interdisciplinary approach, which covers engineering, environmental sciences, agricultural sciences, economics and policy, is a vital tool at this stage of biochar technology development. This comprehensive overview of current knowledge will be of interest to advanced students, researchers and professionals in a wide range of disciplines.
