O ensino-aprendizagem de Português Língua Não Materna (PLNM), em franca expansão (inter)nacionalmente, reivindica à Didática a missão que lhe é intrínseca de estudar problemáticas em contextos educativos específicos para – e com base na interação entre didatas e professores em exercício –, contribuir com um saber dinâmico, significativo e contextualizado. Reconhecendo a relevância que a disciplina em apreço assume na Formação Contínua (FC) de professores e havendo constatado quer a ausência de investigação científica filtrada pela academia baseada na atividade docente dos Leitores Camões, Instituto da Cooperação e da Língua, I.P. (Camões, I.P.) quer a carência de propostas de atualização científico-pedagógica destinada a estes profissionais, esta obra visa equacionar um contributo para estes hiatos recorrendo à edificação do Tríptico Didático (Didática Curricular, Didática Praxeológica e Didática Investigativa).
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
A crise vivenciada pela sociedade contemporânea é, para muitos, uma crise civilizatória que exige soluções urgentes diante das agressões à natureza provocadas pelo desenvolvimento do mundo moderno. É visível a necessidade de impor limites a esse crescimento que tem afetado tanto a preservação do planeta Terra. É necessário um novo modo de pensar que seja mais inclusivo e cooperativo, tendo a sustentabilidade como eixo de atuação, respeitando distintas realidades, contextos e níveis de desenvolvimento, de modo a estimular a análise do que conservar e do que renovar.
This is the first textbook dedicated to explaining how artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can be used in and for games. After introductory chapters that explain the background and key techniques in AI and games, the authors explain how to use AI to play games, to generate content for games and to model players. The book will be suitable for undergraduate and graduate courses in games, artificial intelligence, design, human-computer interaction, and computational intelligence, and also for self-study by industrial game developers and practitioners. The authors have developed a website (http://www.gameaibook.org) that complements the material covered in the book with up-to-date exercises, lecture slides and reading.

Since the 1970s there has been a dramatic rise in the Indian population in Brazil as increasing numbers of pardos (individuals of mixed African, European, and indigenous descent) have chosen to identify themselves as Indians. In Racial Revolutions—the first book-length study of racial formation in Brazil that centers on Indianness—Jonathan W. Warren draws on extensive fieldwork and numerous interviews to illuminate the discursive and material forces responsible for this resurgence in the population. The growing number of pardos who claim Indian identity represents a radical shift in the direction of Brazilian racial formation. For centuries, the predominant trend had been for Indians to ...
