Percepción de la salud de los niños expresada en el lenguaje creativo de los dibujos
Objective. Children’s health perception through creative
drawing language the identification of external factors perceived
as negative or positive to health by children. Methodology. A
descriptive study that describes the analysis of the expressive
language of drawings and written comments. The sample
consisted of 130 children in 3rd and 4th classes from four
randomly selected schools, in the region of Central Portugal
Continental (Coimbra district). The study was conducted during
the first semester of 2011. The data collection was performed
by means of Rodrigues’ drawing/writing sheet. This sheet is
divided in 4 areas (2 of them to draw what children consider
good for health and the other 2 to write the content or message
of the drawings). The themes expressed are classified based
on the priority areas for the promotion of healthy lifestyles.
Results. children value healthy food, physical activity, mental
health, prevention of inappropriate substance consumption and
health and environment. The drawings and comments show
links between diet and physical exercise, and between mental
health and interpersonal relationships. Conclusion. Drawings
and comments facilitate health professionals understanding
of children’s perception of health positive and negative factors.
The results of the study allow planning intervention strategies in
school health from infant perception
Generalized Teleparallel Theory
We construct a theory in which the gravitational interaction is described
only by torsion, but that generalizes the Teleparallel Theory still keeping the
invariance of local Lorentz transformations in one particular case. We show
that our theory falls, to a certain limit of a real parameter, in the
Gravity or, to another limit of the same real parameter, in a
modified Gravity, interpolating between these two theories and still can
fall on several other theories. We explicitly show the equivalence with
Gravity for cases of Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker flat
metric for diagonal tetrads, and a metric with spherical symmetry for diagonal
and non-diagonal tetrads. We do still four applications, one in the
reconstruction of the de Sitter universe cosmological model, for obtaining a
static spherically symmetric solution type-de Sitter for a perfect fluid, for
evolution of the state parameter and for the thermodynamics to
the apparent horizon.Comment: 15 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1503.07427,

Regular black holes in gravity
In this work, we study the possibility of generalizing solutions of regular
black holes with an electric charge, constructed in general relativity, for the
theory, where is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. This type of solution
arises due to the coupling between gravitational theory and nonlinear
electrodynamics. We construct the formalism in terms of a mass function and it
results in different gravitational and electromagnetic theories for which mass
function. The electric field of these solutions are always regular and the
strong energy condition is violated in some region inside the event horizon.
For some solutions, we get an analytical form for the function. Imposing
the limit of some constant going to zero in the function we recovered
the linear case, making the general relativity a particular case.Comment: 22 pages, 25 figures.Version published in EPJ
Comunidade virtual de educação especial
A possibilidade de gerar partilha, cooperação, entreajuda, conhecimento,
pensamento crÃtico e aprendizagem colaborativa é o objectivo da Comunidade Virtual de
Educação Especial (CVEE). Um projecto que ao mesmo tempo é um desafio aos professores
de educação especial e a todos os que de alguma forma se encontram ligados ou necessitam
de educação especial. Iniciado a partir do Mestrado de TIC-Educação e Formação da Escola
Superior de Educação do Instituto Politécnico de Bragança, pretende desenvolver junto os
profissionais da educação especial o interesse pelas TIC, pela melhoria das práticas
educativas, formação pessoal e profissional
