Integração e educação ambiental entre escola e comunidade: experiência no bairro João XXIII, Fortaleza, Ceará, Brasil / Integration and education between school and community: João XXIII neighborhood experience, Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil

Atualmente as questões ambientais vêm sendo discutidas em diferentes níveis: (governamentais e não governamentais) e com a sociedade civil que tomam como premissa os problemas ambientais que prejudicam a qualidade de vida do ser humano. Essa ideia tem uma trajetória de quase meio século de história e discussões, movimentos sociais ambientalistas, desafios e conquistas, ocupando hoje, um espaço no campo das política pública integradas as questões ambientais. Desse modo, a Educação Ambiental passou a ser implementada no campo das políticas públicas e dentro dos parâmetros escolares, posto que a formação de uma consciência comprometida com as questões ambientais só é possível através da educação ambiental, haja vista que mudanças de costumes, valores, hábitos, necessita de uma educação voltada para reflexão crítica da realidade e uma atuação consciente no espaço social. Assim, o presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar a experiência de educação ambiental do Projeto Prosanear, da Prefeitura Municipal de Fortaleza, no bairro João XXIII, realizada pela equipe de assistentes sociais e estagiárias, a partir da percepção dos alunos(as) que participaram dos projetos sociais “Imagens” e “Em Sintonia”. Para retratar essa experiência, optamos pela pesquisa qualitativa, valendo-se da entrevista semiestruturada, na modalidade de pesquisa participante e observação participante, que configura o universo das ações desenvolvidas in loco com os discentes. Os resultados desse trabalho revelaram dados bastante significativos, viabilizando a análise do quanto é importante a articulação da educação ambiental nos espaços escolares como ferramenta de sensibilização e mobilização comunitária em prol de ações mais conscientes com o meio ambiente e sua preservação

A multi-country test of brief reappraisal interventions on emotions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased negative emotions and decreased positive emotions globally. Left unchecked, these emotional changes might have a wide array of adverse impacts. To reduce negative emotions and increase positive emotions, we tested the effectiveness of reappraisal, an emotion-regulation strategy that modifies how one thinks about a situation. Participants from 87 countries and regions (n = 21,644) were randomly assigned to one of two brief reappraisal interventions (reconstrual or repurposing) or one of two control conditions (active or passive). Results revealed that both reappraisal interventions (vesus both control conditions) consistently reduced negative emotions and increased positive emotions across different measures. Reconstrual and repurposing interventions had similar effects. Importantly, planned exploratory analyses indicated that reappraisal interventions did not reduce intentions to practice preventive health behaviours. The findings demonstrate the viability of creating scalable, low-cost interventions for use around the world

Dynamic analysis for different finite element models of beams with viscoelastic damping layer

Many new viscoelastic materials have been developed recently to help improve noise and vibration levels in mechanical structures for applications in automobile and aeronautical industry. The viscoelastic layer treatment applied to solid metal structures modifies two main properties which are related to the mass distribution and the damping mechanism. The other property controlling the dynamics of a mechanical system is the stiffness that does not change much with the viscoelastic material. The model of such system is usually complex, because the viscoelastic material can exhibit nonlinear behavior, in contrast with the many available tools for linear dynamics. In this work, the dynamic behavior of sandwich beam is modeled by finite element method using different element types which are then compared with experimental results developed in the laboratory for various beams with different viscoelastic layer materials. The finite element model is them updated to help understand the effects in the damping for various natural frequencies and the trade-off between attenuation and the mass add to the structure

On the Support of a Similarity-enabled Relational Database Management System in Civilian Crisis Situations

Crowdsourcing solutions can be helpful to extract information from disaster-related data during crisis management. However, certain information can only be obtained through similarity operations. Some of them also depend on additional data stored in a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). In this context, several works focus on crisis management supported by data. Nevertheless, none of them provide a methodology for employing a similarity-enabled RDBMS in disaster-relief tasks. To fill this gap, we introduce a methodology together with the Data-Centric Crisis Management (DCCM) architecture, which employs our methods over a similarity-enabled RDBMS. We evaluate our proposal through three tasks: classification of incoming data regarding current events, identifying relevant information to guide rescue teams; filtering of incoming data, enhancing the decision support by removing near-duplicate data; and similarity retrieval of historical data, supporting analytical comprehension of the crisis context. To make it possible, similarity-based operations were implemented within one popular, open-source RDBMS. Results using real data from Flickr show that our proposal is feasible for real-time applications. In addition to high performance, accurate results were obtained with a proper combination of techniques for each task. Hence, we expect our work to provide a framework for further developments on crisis management solutions.FAPESPCAPESCNPqRESCUER project, funded by the European Commission (Grant: 614154
