Gênero cordel: uma sequência didática como “troféu”

Resumo: A necessidade de se trabalhar a escrita em sala de aula tomando como base os diversos gêneros textuais, coloca os professores diante da decisão de qual gênero levar para suas aulas de Língua Portuguesa. Assim sendo, pensando no aspecto da relevância cultural do cordel para o Nordeste, decidimos empreender um estudo sobre esse gênero. Nosso objetivo neste artigo é fazer um recorte de um estudo mais amplo com vistas a apresentar a análise de um trabalho com uma Sequência Didática.  Dessa forma, apresentamos as etapas dessa sequência didática realizada numa turma de 9º ano de uma escola pública de Natal. Os resultados da análise nos mostram que se trata de um gênero fecundo para se trabalhar em nosso contexto, uma vez que instiga e motiva os alunos em seus processos de leitura e de escrita promovendo o desenvolvimento dessas habilidades. Palavras-chave: Ensino de leitura e de escrita; Literatura de cordel; Sequência didática.Cordel literature: a didactic sequence as a “prize” Abstract: The necessity of dealing with different textual genres when practicing writing takes teachers to face the crucial decision of which genre to take to their Portuguese classes. Therefore, because of the cultural relevance of the cordel literature to the Northeast of Brazil, we have decided to undertake a study on this textual genre. Our aim in this paper is to focus on one aspect of a broader research in order to presente the analysis of a Didactic Sequence produced on cordel. Thus, it is presented the stafes of this sequence carried out in a 9th grade class at a public school in Natal/RN. The result of the analysis show us that it is a fertile genre to work in out contexto since it instigates and motivates students on their Reading and writing processes, promoting the development of these language skills.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high in-hospital mortality. Alveolar recruitment followed by ventilation at optimal titrated PEEP may reduce ventilator-induced lung injury and improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS, but the effects on mortality and other clinical outcomes remain unknown. This article reports the rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART). Methods/Design: ART is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized (concealed), controlled trial, which aims to determine if maximum stepwise alveolar recruitment associated with PEEP titration is able to increase 28-day survival in patients with ARDS compared to conventional treatment (ARDSNet strategy). We will enroll adult patients with ARDS of less than 72 h duration. The intervention group will receive an alveolar recruitment maneuver, with stepwise increases of PEEP achieving 45 cmH(2)O and peak pressure of 60 cmH2O, followed by ventilation with optimal PEEP titrated according to the static compliance of the respiratory system. In the control group, mechanical ventilation will follow a conventional protocol (ARDSNet). In both groups, we will use controlled volume mode with low tidal volumes (4 to 6 mL/kg of predicted body weight) and targeting plateau pressure <= 30 cmH2O. The primary outcome is 28-day survival, and the secondary outcomes are: length of ICU stay; length of hospital stay; pneumothorax requiring chest tube during first 7 days; barotrauma during first 7 days; mechanical ventilation-free days from days 1 to 28; ICU, in-hospital, and 6-month survival. ART is an event-guided trial planned to last until 520 events (deaths within 28 days) are observed. These events allow detection of a hazard ratio of 0.75, with 90% power and two-tailed type I error of 5%. All analysis will follow the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: If the ART strategy with maximum recruitment and PEEP titration improves 28-day survival, this will represent a notable advance to the care of ARDS patients. Conversely, if the ART strategy is similar or inferior to the current evidence-based strategy (ARDSNet), this should also change current practice as many institutions routinely employ recruitment maneuvers and set PEEP levels according to some titration method.Hospital do Coracao (HCor) as part of the Program 'Hospitais de Excelencia a Servico do SUS (PROADI-SUS)'Brazilian Ministry of Healt

Poetry Slam invade escolas de periferias paulistanas: eventos e práticas de letramentos literários no VIII Slam Interescolar de São Paulo

RESUMO: Este artigo se propõe a descrever algumas cenas performadas por estudantes de escolas públicas paulistas, sobretudo das periferias, no VIII Slam Interescolar de São Paulo, visando discutir e analisar práticas de letramentos literários. Esse evento poético foi observado in loco pelos autores deste artigo, em específico, a performance poética da estudante do ensino fundamental II, Manoella de Souza, da Escola Estadual Dona Luiza Macuco. Os autores desta pesquisa assumem a perspectiva dos letramentos literários (Amorim; Domingues; Klayn; Silva, 2022; Neves, 2021a), dos letramentos de reexistência (Souza, 2011; Duboc; Menezes De Souza, 2021; Walsh, 2009, 2019) e dos letramentos críticos (Monte-Mór, 2015, 2019) em defesa do Poetry Slam como ato político-poético-performático de jovens da periferia paulistana

Growing knowledge: an overview of Seed Plant diversity in Brazil

Abstract An updated inventory of Brazilian seed plants is presented and offers important insights into the country's biodiversity. This work started in 2010, with the publication of the Plants and Fungi Catalogue, and has been updated since by more than 430 specialists working online. Brazil is home to 32,086 native Angiosperms and 23 native Gymnosperms, showing an increase of 3% in its species richness in relation to 2010. The Amazon Rainforest is the richest Brazilian biome for Gymnosperms, while the Atlantic Rainforest is the richest one for Angiosperms. There was a considerable increment in the number of species and endemism rates for biomes, except for the Amazon that showed a decrease of 2.5% of recorded endemics. However, well over half of Brazillian seed plant species (57.4%) is endemic to this territory. The proportion of life-forms varies among different biomes: trees are more expressive in the Amazon and Atlantic Rainforest biomes while herbs predominate in the Pampa, and lianas are more expressive in the Amazon, Atlantic Rainforest, and Pantanal. This compilation serves not only to quantify Brazilian biodiversity, but also to highlight areas where there information is lacking and to provide a framework for the challenge faced in conserving Brazil's unique and diverse flora
