Rastros do neoliberalismo no campo da Educação
O livro é fruto de um conjunto de pesquisas e reflexões que têm sido produzidas, nos anos recentes, sobre os rastros do neoliberalismo no campo da Educação. Considerando as várias facetas presentes nas discussões sobre o neoliberalismo, nosso interesse, ao propormos a construção deste livro, está nas reflexões que giram em torno dos seus efeitos na área da Educação. Com o intuito de seguir o debate e apresentar problematizações vinculadas aos efeitos do neoliberalismo no campo da Educação, convidamos pesquisadoras e pesquisadores de diferentes instituições de ensino do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (RS), do Brasil e da Colômbia para debaterem esse tema a partir de suas experiências e reflexões.
Multi-Agent-Based Simulations Applied to Biological and Environmental Systems
The discovery and development of new computational methods have expanded the capabilities and uses of simulations. With agent-based models, the applications of computer simulations are significantly enhanced. Multi-Agent-Based Simulations Applied to Biological and Environmental Systems is a pivotal reference source for the latest research on the implementation of autonomous agents in computer simulation paradigms. Featuring extensive coverage on relevant applications, such as biodiversity conservation, pollution reduction, and environmental risk assessment, this publication is an ideal source for researchers, academics, engineers, practitioners, and professionals seeking material on various issues surrounding the use of agent-based simulations.
Understanding Deaf Culture
This book presents a ‘Traveller’s Guide’ to Deaf Culture, starting from the premise that Deaf cultures have an important contribution to make to other academic disciplines, and human lives in general. Within and outside Deaf communities, there is a need for an account of the new concept of Deaf culture, which enables readers to assess its place alongside work on other minority cultures and multilingual discourses. The book aims to assess the concepts of culture, on their own terms and in their many guises and to apply these to Deaf communities. The author illustrates the pitfalls which have been created for those communities by the medical concept of ‘deafness’ and contrasts this with his new concept of “Deafhood”, a process by which every Deaf child, family and adult implicitly explains their existence in the world to themselves and each other.
Fluid BJJ
"Karel is one of my favourite training partners. The insights in his book are excellent to learn many techniques for advanced martial artists."- Georges St. Pierre, 12 time UFC World Champion, one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time & BJJ Black Belt The concept of "fighting" is at the heart of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. We study the art to learn how to win fights. We even refer to matches in our sport competitions as "fights". The methods of learning the art are rugged, and at best transform our bodies into fighting machines.But applying this fight mindset to everyday training can cause us to use methods that destroy training longevity, and ultimately rob us of the ability to practice the art...
Identity and Difference
`The book is easy to use and its layout demonstrates some skill in constructing volumes that `work' as study guides and reference tools. The merit of this book goes well beyond its suitability for course applications. Contemporary ideas on identity provide new meanings for an old concept' - Multilingual and Multicultura In recent years, identity and difference have been the focus of key debates in cultural studies. This broad-ranging book examines the challenge of these debates and outlines their applications to central questions of gender, sexuality, embodiment, health, `race' and nation. The text renders accessible some of the most exciting and controversial issues in recent cultural studies. It comb
XXVI Brazilian Congress on Biomedical Engineering
This volume presents the proceedings of the Brazilian Congress on Biomedical Engineering (CBEB 2018).

Topics of the proceedings include these 11 tracks: • Bioengineering • Biomaterials, Tissue Engineering and Artificial Organs • Biomechanics and Rehabilitation • Biomedical Devices and Instrumentation • Biomedical Robotics, Assistive Technologies and Health Informatics • Clinical Engineering and Health Technology Assessment • Metrology, Standardization, Testing and Quality in Health • Biomedical Signal and Image Processing • Neural Engineering • Special Topics • Systems and Technologies for Therapy and Diagnosis
The Data Science Design Manual
This engaging and clearly written textbook/reference provides a must-have introduction to the rapidly emerging interdisciplinary field of data science. It focuses on the principles fundamental to becoming a good data scientist and the key skills needed to build systems for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. The Data Science Design Manual is a source of practical insights that highlights what really matters in analyzing data, and provides an intuitive understanding of how these core concepts can be used. The book does not emphasize any particular programming language or suite of data-analysis tools, focusing instead on high-level discussion of important design principles. This easy...
The Native Speaker
Linguists, applied linguists and language teachers all appeal to the native speaker as an important reference point. But what exactly (who exactly?) is the native speaker? This book examines the native speaker from different points of view, arguing that the native speaker is both myth and reality.
Posthumanist Applied Linguistics
Drawing on a range of contexts and data sources, from urban multilingualism to studies of animal communication, Posthumanist Applied Linguistics offers us alternative ways of thinking about the human predicament, with major implications for research, education and politics. Exploring the advent of the Anthropocene, new forms of materialism, distributed language, assemblages, and the boundaries between humans, other animals and objects, eight incisive chapters by one of the world's foremost applied linguistics open up profound questions to do with language and the world. This critical posthumanist applied linguistic perspective is essential reading for all researchers and students in the fields of Applied Linguistics and Sociolinguistics.
