A EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA EM UMA ESCOLA MILITAR: DE TURMAS SEPARADAS POR SEXO E POR ALTURA A TURMAS MISTAS
This study describes the transition from Physical Education classes segregated – by sex and height – to mixed classes in sixth and seventh Elementary School grades in Porto Alegre’s Military School. Its theoretical framework is Gender Studies and Oral History: four interviews were conducted with teachers of that institution. Data collected in the interviews were combined with documents from Brazil’s Military School System and others related to gender issues and coeducation in Physical Education. Considering the change in class organization criteria carried out at the beginning of 2018, the teachers mentioned the many changes this new configuration demanded in their conduct, since they were used to working with sports content taking into account the difference between skills and performances of male and female students. El presente estudio tiene por objetivo describir el proceso de transición de clases separadas (por sexo y por altura) a clases mixtas en la Educación Física de sexto y séptimo años de la enseñanza fundamental en la Escuela Militar de Porto Alegre. Sus fundamentos teóricos y metodológicos están anclados en los Estudios de Género y en la Historia Oral: se realizaron cuatro entrevistas con docentes de la institución. Los datos obtenidos por las entrevistas se contrastaron con documentos del Sistema Colegio Militar de Brasil y con otros referentes a cuestiones de género y de coeducación en Educación Física. Considerando la alteración de los criterios de organización de las clases, realizada a inicios del 2018, los docentes mencionan hasta qué punto esta nueva configuración demandó alteraciones en su conducta, dado que estaban habituados a trabajar el contenido deportivo teniendo en cuenta la diferencia que identifican entre habilidades y performances de alumnos y alumnas.

Exploring perceived barriers, drivers, impacts and the need for evaluation of public involvement in health and social care research: a modified Delphi study
Mixed method, three-phase, modified Delphi technique, conducted as part of a larger MRC multiphase project: http://www.piiaf.org.ukThis is a freely-available open access publication. Please cite the published version which is available via the DOI link in this recordAbstract
Objective To explore areas of consensus and conflict in relation to perceived public involvement (PI) barriers and drivers, perceived impacts of PI and ways of evaluating PI approaches in health and social care research.
Background Internationally and within the UK the recognition of potential benefits of PI in health and social care research is gathering momentum and PI is increasingly identified by organisations as a prerequisite for funding. However, there is relatively little examination of the impacts of PI and how those impacts might be measured.
Design Mixed method, three-phase, modified Delphi technique, conducted as part of a larger MRC multiphase project.
Sample Clinical and non-clinical academics, members of the public, research managers, commissioners and funders.
Findings This study found high levels of consensus about the most important barriers and drivers to PI. There was acknowledgement that tokenism was common in relation to PI; and strong support for the view that demonstrating the impacts and value of PI was made more difficult by tokenistic practice. PI was seen as having intrinsic value; nonetheless, there was clear support for the importance of evaluating its impact. Research team cohesion and appropriate resources were considered essential to effective PI implementation. Panellists agreed that PI can be challenging, but can be facilitated by clear guidance, together with models of good practice and measurable standards.
Conclusions This study is the first to present empirical evidence of the opinions voiced by key stakeholders on areas of consensus and conflict in relation to perceived PI barriers and drivers, perceived impacts of PI and the need to evaluate PI. As such it further contributes to debate around best practice in PI, the potential for tokenism and how best to evaluate the impacts of PI. These findings have been used in the development of the Public Involvement Impact Assessment Framework (PiiAF), an online resource which offers guidance to researchers and members of the public involved in the PI process.The study was supported by the Medical Research Council's Methodology Research Programme [G0902155/93948]
Regulation of immune cell function and differentiation by the NKG2D receptor
NKG2D is one of the most intensively studied immune receptors of the past decade. Its unique binding and signaling properties, expression pattern, and functions have been attracting much interest within the field due to its potent antiviral and anti-tumor properties. As an activating receptor, NKG2D is expressed on cells of the innate and adaptive immune system. It recognizes stress-induced MHC class I-like ligands and acts as a molecular sensor for cells jeopardized by viral infections or DNA damage. Although the activating functions of NKG2D have been well documented, recent analysis of NKG2D-deficient mice suggests that this receptor may have a regulatory role during NK cell development. In this review, we will revisit known aspects of NKG2D functions and present new insights in the proposed influence of this molecule on hematopoietic differentiation
Globally, songs and instrumental melodies are slower, higher, and use more stable pitches than speech: a registered report
Both music and language are found in all known human societies, yet no studies have compared similarities and differences between song, speech, and instrumental music on a global scale. In this Registered Report, we analyzed two global datasets: (i) 300 annotated audio recordings representing matched sets of traditional songs, recited lyrics, conversational speech, and instrumental melodies from our 75 coauthors speaking 55 languages; and (ii) 418 previously published adult-directed song and speech recordings from 209 individuals speaking 16 languages. Of our six preregistered predictions, five were strongly supported: Relative to speech, songs use (i) higher pitch, (ii) slower temporal rate, and (iii) more stable pitches, while both songs and speech used similar (iv) pitch interval size and (v) timbral brightness. Exploratory analyses suggest that features vary along a “musi-linguistic” continuum when including instrumental melodies and recited lyrics. Our study provides strong empirical evidence of cross-cultural regularities in music and speech
