Aprendizagem Móvel: um novo paradigma para facilitar a aprendizagem significativa por meio da colaboração nas redes sociais consiste num recurso didático para aqueles docentes que almejam não somente um processo de ensino e de aprendizagem mais sintonizado com a realidade de seus alunos, mas que também buscam capacitar-se sobre as novas ferramentas e os novos modelos que surgem com a ascensão da computação móvel e das Redes Sociais na Internet (RSI) em nosso dia a dia. Atualmente, vive-se na Sociedade da Informação (SI), num meio no qual as Tecnologias Digitais da Informação e Comunicação (TDICs) fazem cada vez mais parte do cotidiano das pessoas, já estando a elas assimilad...
Com grande satisfação apresentamos o volume 3 da série “Educação e Tecnologia transformando a maneira como ensinamos e aprendemos”. Este trabalho é resultado da necessidade de exploração e debate sobre o papel crucial da tecnologia no contexto educacional, destacando como ela tem se tornado o motor de inúmeras transformações significativas no ensino e na aprendizagem. Iniciamos com a análise do processo de alfabetização em escolas e sociedades (des)conectadas, buscando entender o que os alfabetizadores têm a dizer a respeito. O foco se direciona para a importância da adaptação ao ambiente de aprendizagem digital, bem como as oportunidades e desafios que ele apresenta. A...
This book is intended as an introduction to classical water wave theory for the college senior or first year graduate student. The material is self-contained; almost all mathematical and engineering concepts are presented or derived in the text, thus making the book accessible to practicing engineers as well.The book commences with a review of fluid mechanics and basic vector concepts. The formulation and solution of the governing boundary value problem for small amplitude waves are developed and the kinematic and pressure fields for short and long waves are explored. The transformation of waves due to variations in depth and their interactions with structures are derived. Wavemaker theories...
This book provides postgraduate trainees with 50 real clinical cardiology cases. Divided into fourteen sections, several cases are presented under each category covering various disorders of the cardiac system, including congenital heart diseases, aortic valve diseases, pulmonary diseases, ECG abnormalities, cardiac arrhythmias, coronary artery disease and much more. Beginning with a brief history and findings based on physical examination, each case then includes analytical discussion on bedside investigations and proposals for treatment. Authored by a recognised expert in the field, this practical book is highly illustrated with echocardiographic, radiographic and electrocardiographic data. Key points Presents 50 real clinical cardiology cases Covers numerous disorders of the cardiac system Authored by recognised cardiologist Includes more than 217 images, illustrations and tables
The authors explain how a group of higher education schools used just-in-time teaching (JiTT) methods to increase interactivity for the physics student. By enhancing courses with multimedia Web activities and electronic communications, the classroom environment allowed less dependence on lecture and more rapid responses to students' problems.
Kirkpatrick tells us how Facebook was created, why it has flourished, and where it is going next. He chronicles its successes and missteps.
Food processing is expected to affect content, activity and bioavailability of nutrients; the health-promoting capacity of food products depends on their processing history. Traditional technologies, such as the use of antimicrobials and thermal processing, are efficient in increasing nutritional value to an extent, though they may not be effective at addressing food safety, particularly when it comes to maintaining the food's molecular structure. Modern food processing plants improve the quality of life for people with allergies, diabetics, and others who cannot consume some common food elements. Food processing can also add extra nutrients, such as vitamins. Processed foods are often less ...
Construction innovation is an important but contested concept, both in industry practice and academic reflection and research. A fundamental reason for this is the nature of the construction industry itself: the industry and the value creation activities taking place there are multi-disciplinary, heterogeneous, distributed and often fragmented. This book takes a new approach to construction innovation, revealing different perspectives, set in a broader context. It coalesces multiple theoretical and practice-based views in order to stimulate reflection and to prepare the ground for further synthesis. By being clear, cogent and unambiguous on the most basic definitions, it can mobilise a plura...
Discover BIM: A better way to build better buildings Building Information Modeling (BIM) offers a novel approach to design, construction, and facility management in which a digital representation of the building product and process is used to facilitate the exchange and interoperability of information in digital format. BIM is beginning to change the way buildings look, the way they function, and the ways in which they are designed and built. The BIM Handbook, Third Edition provides an in-depth understanding of BIM technologies, the business and organizational issues associated with its implementation, and the profound advantages that effective use of BIM can provide to all members of a proj...
Proteins are indispensable players in virtually all biological events. The functions of proteins are coordinated through intricate regulatory networks of transient protein-protein interactions (PPIs). To predict and/or study PPIs, a wide variety of techniques have been developed over the last several decades. Many in vitro and in vivo assays have been implemented to explore the mechanism of these ubiquitous interactions. However, despite significant advances in these experimental approaches, many limitations exist such as false-positives/false-negatives, difficulty in obtaining crystal structures of proteins, challenges in the detection of transient PPI, among others. To overcome these limitations, many computational approaches have been developed which are becoming increasingly widely used to facilitate the investigation of PPIs. This book has gathered an ensemble of experts in the field, in 22 chapters, which have been broadly categorized into Computational Approaches, Experimental Approaches, and Others.
