A ideia de elaboração do livro Fundamentos Teóricos e Metodológicos da Pesquisa em Educação em Ciências, teve sua origem a partir da realização de uma disciplina de Metodologia da Pesquisa, ministrado pelos professores organizadores desta obra em 2019/01 no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação em Ciências (PPGEC) da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). Como avaliação da referida disciplina, os alunos foram divididos em grupos e coletivamente escreveram um texto sobre cada tipo de pesquisa que costumeiramente são abordadas em Educação em Ciências. O livro está divido em seis seções, que apresentam os principais tipos de pesquisa trabalhados em Educação em Ciências: quanto a abordagem, quanto a Natureza, quanto aos objetivos, quanto aos procedimentos ou escolha do objeto de estudo, quanto a Técnica de Coleta de Dados (Instrumentos) e quanto aos Métodos de Análise de Dados. Com essa obra, esperamos contribuir com os estudos de nossos alunos (Mestrandos e Doutorandos) que vierem a cursar essa disciplina no futuro bem como proporcionar a comunidade acadêmica uma nova obra para ser utilizada nas pesquisas em Educação em Ciências.
This book explores the gendered historical and social contexts and discursive traditions that have characterized journals and diaries in academic discourse. The tension between the term "journal," which has a variety of positive public and scholarly connotations, and the term "diary," which is currently understood as a feminized, trivial, and confessional kind of writing inappropriate for school, is a critical part of the problem. This book uses the developing and shifting notions of diary and journal to explore several critical questions about the larger relations between gender, language, canonicity, and academic discourse.
A group biography of five women who played path-breaking roles in the transcendentalist movement In November 1839, a group of young women in Boston formed a conversation society “to answer the great questions” of special importance to women: "What are we born to do? How shall we do it?" The lives and works of the five women who discussed these questions are at the center of Bright Circle, a group biography of remarkable thinkers and artists who played pathbreaking roles in the transcendentalist movement. Transcendentalism remains the most important literary and philosophical movement to have originated in the United States. Most accounts of it, however, trace its emergence to a group of ...
This book provides an integrated treatment of the structure and function of nucleic acids, proteins, and glycans, including thorough coverage of relevant computational biochemistry. The text begins with an introduction to the biomacromolecules, followed by discussion of methods of isolation and purification, physiochemical and biochemical properties, and structural characteristics. The next section of the book deals with sequence analysis, analysis of conformation using spectroscopy, chemical synthesis, and computational approaches. The following chapters discuss biomolecular interactions, enzyme action, gene transmission, signal transduction, and biomacromolecular informatics. The author concludes with presenting the latest findings in genomics, proteomics, glycomics, and biomacromolecular evolution. This text is an invaluable resource for research professionals wishing to move into genomics, proteomics, and glycomics research. It is also useful for students in biochemistry, molecular biology, bioengineering, biotechnology, and bioinformatics.
There have been numerous publications in the last decades on the Bible in literature, film, and art. But until now, no reference work has yet appeared on the Bible as it appears in Western music. In The Bible in Music: A Dictionary of Songs, Works, and More, scholars Siobhán Dowling Long and John F. A. Sawyer correct this gap in Biblical reference literature, providing for the first time a convenient guide to musical interpretations of the Bible. Alongside examples of classical music from the Middle Ages through modern times, Dowling Long and Sawyer also bring attention to the Bible’s impact on popular culture with numerous entries on hymns, spirituals, musicals, film music, and contempor...
Kitchen, cooking, nutrition, and eating have become omnipresent cultural topics. They stand at the center of design, gastronomy, nutrition science, and agriculture. Artists have appropriated cooking as an aesthetic practice - in turn, cooks are adapting the staging practices that go with an artistic self-image. This development is accompanied by crisis of eating behaviour and a philosophy of cooking as a speculative cultural technique. This volume investigates the dimensions of a new culinary turn, combining for the very first time contributions from the theory and practice of cooking.
