A obra Objetos Digitais de Aprendência para a Educação Mediada: uma cartografia em devir objetiva contribuir pedagógica, teórica e metodologicamente para a criação e elaboração de Objetos Digitais de Aprendência. É uma pesquisa que tem como embasamento teórico as concepções deleuzianas de rizoma, devir, rostidade entre outras, numa tentativa de situar os percursos por onde a pesquisa desterritorrializa e reterritorializa ou se perde em busca de novas paisagens.
Os processos societais – culturais, políticos, educacionais, religiosos, etc. – contemporâneos passaram a ter como enquadramento o contexto global, que desafia a escala de compreensão do enraizamento local, da familiaridade do que é próximo. A tecnologia sempre desafiou os modos de fazer, agir e compreender. Hoje a tecnologia informática em simbiose com as telecomunicações criaram uma nova camada, uma nova eco-techno-esfera que envolve todos os espaços, mesmo os que não têm acesso à rede Internet, na medida em que por esta são afetados porque lhes confere a condição de exclusão. A eco-techno-esfera criada pela Internet intensifica-se com o protagonismo de um dos seus serv...
Are children today growing up too soon? How do they - and their parents - feel about media portrayals of sex and personal relationships? Are the media a corrupting influence, or a potentially positive and useful resource for young people? Drawing on an extensive research project, which investigated children's interpretations of sexual content in films, TV and print media, this book considers how young people (aged 9-17) use such material to understand their experiences and build their identities, and how they and their parents respond to public concerns about these issues. The book offers a clearly written and entertaining insight into children's and parents' perspectives on these difficult issues - perspectives that are often ignored or trivialised in public debate.
Publisher Description
Nanomaterials from Clay Minerals: A New Approach to Green Functional Materials details the structure, properties and modification of natural nanoscale clay minerals and their application as the green constituent of functional materials. Natural nanomaterials from clay minerals have diverse morphologies, from 1D to 3D, including nanorods, nanofibers, nanotubes, nanosheets and nanopores. These structures show excellent adsorption, reinforcing, supporter, electronic, catalytic and biocompatible properties and are great as sustainable alternatives for toxic or expensive artificial materials. This book provides systematic coverage of clay nanomaterials as eco-friendly resources, emphasizing the i...
Through this translation of As Três Marias the literary achievements of Rachel de Queiroz may at last be judged and appreciated by the English-reading public. Since none of her four novels has previously been translated into English, The Three Marias will be, for many non-Brazilians, an introduction to this nationally known South American author whose books have been widely praised for their artistic merits. Her literary works are colored by her projected personality, by an intense feeling for her own people, by an omnipresent social consciousness, and by personal experiences in the arid backlands of her native state of Ceará. Basing this story on certain of her own recollections from the nineteen-twenties, Rachel de Queiroz tells of a girl growing up in the seaport town of Fortaleza, in northeastern Brazil. Fred P. Ellison, whose special field is Brazilian and Spanish-American literature, has captured in his translation the author's graceful style and simplicity of language, and has successfully retained the perspective of an idealistic and gradually maturing girl.
Praise for the Second Edition "Statistics for Research has other fine qualities besides superior organization. The examples and the statistical methods are laid out with unusual clarity by the simple device of using special formats for each. The book was written with great care and is extremely user-friendly."—The UMAP Journal Although the goals and procedures of statistical research have changed little since the Second Edition of Statistics for Research was published, the almost universal availability of personal computers and statistical computing application packages have made it possible for today's statisticians to do more in less time than ever before. The Third Edition of this bests...
Clay minerals are layer silicates with a large propensity for adsorbing and intercalating simple and polymeric organic molecules. Because of their fine particle size, extensive surface area, layer structure, and peculiar charge characteristics, clay minerals can also act as efficient solid acid catalysts and catalyst carriers/supports. Besides being easy to separate from the reaction mixture and recyclable, clay minerals are abundant, inexpensive, and nonpolluting. Moreover, layer silicates offer a reduced dimensionality of reaction space in which introduced organic species can meet and collide. This book provides an insight into the relationship between the surface properties of clay minera...

Researchers rely on libraries to provide the information they need; equally, supporting research is a fundamental reason for libraries' existence. This book explores the crucial relationship between libraries and researchers, focusing on developing and managing effective library services to support research, and includes the authentic voices of researchers surveyed. This book will inform and advise all those who work with researchers in libraries, combining practical advice with an exploration of fundamental issues relating to the relationship between research and libraries. It is essential reading for all who work in academic and research libraries, and will be of particular value to newly qualified and practising liaison and research support librarians.
