“Praticando conceitos e conceituando práticas: um olhar sobre os processos educativos no IFRS – Campus Sertão” trata da perspectiva feminina do IFRS – Campus Sertão – e foi escrito por várias mãos. Mãos de mulheres, trabalhadoras em educação, profissionais preocupadas com o desenvolvimento e a formação cidadã dos/das estudantes, comprometidas não só com o seu acesso e acolhimento, como também com sua permanência e êxito. Outra característica em comum é a de participar dos mecanismos institucionais que promovem e protegem os/as estudantes que são oriundos/as das cotas ou que, de alguma forma, em algum momento são discriminados/as, sofrem preconceitos, que são os Núcleos de Ações Afirmativas: Napne (Núcleo de Atendimento às Pessoas com Necessidades Específicas); Nepgs (Núcleo de Estudos e Pesquisas em Gênero e Sexualidade) e Neabi (Núcleo de estudos Afro-brasileiros e Indígenas).
A Educação é um direito de todos. E a busca por esse direito universal é fundamental para garantir o acesso aos diferentes sujeitos educativos. Independentemente das circunstâncias sociais, políticas, econômicas e até mesmo educacionais, todos têm o direito e a capacidade de aprender. Ao refletir acerca da universalização da educação, não se pode deixar de considerar a realidade vivenciada pelos alunos com distorção idade-série, que por elementos intra e extraescolares não conseguiram se enquadrar ao modelo educativo e consequentemente ter a formação educacional em idade própria. Esses alunos inseridos na Educação de Jovens e Adultos têm historicidades distintas e olh...
Growth in photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing worldwide continues to increase. In parallel, appropriate standards and certification schemes are being developed. During this period, clear guidance is crucial for integrating this technology into working practices of professionals in the building sector. This bestselling guide has become the essential tool for any installer, engineer and architect, offering guidance, and detailing every subject necessary for successful project implementation, from the technical design to the legal and market issues of PV installation. Beginning with resource assessment and an outline of the core components, this guide comprehensively covers system design, economic analysis, installation, operation and maintenance of PV systems. The book includes a free CD-ROM which contains essential software and additional material. The second edition has been fully updated to reflect the state-of-the-art in technology and concepts and includes: a new chapters on marketing and the history of PV; new information on the photovoltaic market; new material on lightning protection; a new section on building integrated systems; and new graphics, data, photos and software.
Edible insects have always been a part of human diets, but in some societies there remains a degree of disdain and disgust for their consumption. Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many tra...
Full of features and applications, this acclaimed textbook for upper undergraduate level and graduate level students includes all the major topics of computational linear algebra, including solution of a system of linear equations, least-squares solutions of linear systems, computation of eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and singular value problems. Drawing from numerous disciplines of science and engineering, the author covers a variety of motivating applications. When a physical problem is posed, the scientific and engineering significance of the solution is clearly stated. Each chapter contains a summary of the important concepts developed in that chapter, suggestions for further reading, and numerous exercises, both theoretical and MATLAB and MATCOM based. The author also provides a list of key words for quick reference. The MATLAB toolkit available online, 'MATCOM', contains implementations of the major algorithms in the book and will enable students to study different algorithms for the same problem, comparing efficiency, stability, and accuracy.
Processes of multi-scalar regional urbanization are occurring worldwide. Such processes are clearly distinguishable from those of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries due to the shifting concepts of both the city and the metropolis. International literature highlights how what we have historically associated with the idea of cities has long been subjected to consistent reconfiguration, which involves stressing some of the typical features of the idea of "cityness". Post-Metropolitan Territories: Looking for a New Urbanity is the product of a research project funded by the Italian Ministry for Education, Universities and Research (MIUR). It constitutes a thorough overview of a country that ...
Consolidating existing knowledge in Design Science, this book proposes a new research method to aid the exploration of design and problem solving within business, science and technology. It seeks to overcome a dichotomy that exists in the field between theory and practice to enable researches to find solutions to problems, rather than focusing on the explanation and exploration of the problems themselves. Currently, researches concentrate on to describing, exploring, explaining and predicting phenomena, and little attention is devoted to prescribing solutions. Herbert Simon proposes the need to develop a Science of the Artificial (Design Science), arguing that our reality is much more artifi...
