O ensino de PHP em páginas web dinâmicas através do desenvolvimento de um "fórum online sobre património cultural"

Relatório da Prática de Ensino Supervisionada, Mestrado em Ensino da Informática, Universidade de Lisboa, Instituto de Educação, 2020O presente relatório foi concretizado no âmbito da unidade curricular de Iniciação à Prática Profissional IV do Mestrado em Ensino da Informática do Instituto de Educação da Universidade de Lisboa. Retrata a intervenção pedagógica na Escola Secundária Gago Coutinho, numa turma do segundo ano do Curso Profissional de Técnico de Gestão e Programação de Sistemas Informáticos na disciplina de Redes de Comunicação e concretamente no final do módulo cinco: “Desenvolvimento de Páginas Web Dinâmicas” com a duração de catorze tempos letivos de quarenta e cinco minutos de prática de ensino supervisionada. Em virtude da suspensão das aulas presenciais por ordem do Governo a dezasseis de março de 2020 devido à pandemia COVID-19, quatro tempos decorreram presencialmente e dez tempos letivos decorreram à distância de forma síncrona via Zoom. Os conteúdos programáticos abordados foram os seguintes: sessões, cookies, tratamento de erros na linguagem PHP (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) e a consolidação de conhecimentos em linguagens PHP, HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) e SQL (Structured Query Language), que permitiram criar um fórum online sobre o património do concelho de Vila Franca de Xira que se enquadrou no tema do DAC (Domínio de Autonomia Curricular) da turma. Foi realizado um trabalho interdisciplinar e de articulação curricular privilegiando o trabalho prático e o desenvolvimento das capacidades de pesquisa, relação e análise, com vista ao desenvolvimento das áreas de competências inscritas no Perfil dos Alunos à Saída da Escolaridade Obrigatória. No decorrer da prática de ensino supervisionada foram usadas várias metodologias, nomeadamente a ativa, interrogativa e também a expositiva, de modo a minimizar as dificuldades identificadas por alguns autores no ensino dos princípios da programação aos alunos. Por fim, com o objetivo de avaliar de forma contínua as atitudes, o trabalho desenvolvido pelos alunos e a aquisição de conhecimentos, foram utilizadas ferramentas de avaliação diagnóstica, formativa e sumativa.The following report was accomplished in the curricular unit ambit of Initiation to Professional Practice IV Master’s Degree in Computer Science Teaching at Lisbon University, Educational Institute. The pedagogical intervention retracts the Secondary School Gago Coutinho, of an A-levels class from a Professional and Technical course in Management and Computer Systems Developer, considering the subject of communication networks, more precisely at the end of the 5th unit: “Dynamic Web Pages Development” the supervised teaching practice had the duration of 14 academic days which lasted 45 minutes each. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, school suspension of presential classes was ordered by the government, March 16th of 2020, so only 4 academic days were attended. The remaining 10 occurred in long-distance learning synchronously using Zoom. The addressed programmatic contents were the following: sessions, cookies, language error treatment PHP (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) and knowledge in languages consolidation in PHP, HTML (HyperText Markup Language), CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) e SQL (Structured Query Language), which allowed to create an online forum about Vila Franca de Xira municipality Patrimony, and framed the theme CAD (Curricular Autonomy Dominance) of the class. An interdisciplinary work was carried out in the curricular articulation, privileging the practical work. Development of searching capabilities, relationship association, and analyse. Considering this, the intent is to develop the several knowledge areas enrolled in the student’s profile when they exit the obligatory schooling. During the practicing supervised taught, several methodologies were used. Such as active, interrogative, and expositive, to minimize the difficulties presented by some authors concerning teaching programming principal to students. To summarize, the objective is: To evaluate the attitudes continuously, the acquisition of knowledge, and work developed by the students. This became possible using tools of diagnostic, formative, and summative evaluation

Friction stir welding Ti-al alloys with ultrasonic impact

High performance and reduced weight and cost are gaining importance in the aviation industry. There are different approaches to meet these requirements. In this study, titanium and aluminum alloys were welded using friction stir welding. The samples were divided into two groups, one of which was welded using ultrasound. Studies have shown that the strength of samples is influenced by many factors that are usually not taken into account. For example, the complexity of the interface between dissimilar materials and its roughness. It was found that the application of ultrasound during welding often increases the complexity of the interface and decreases its roughness, which generally leads to strengthening. This effect can neutralize the increase in the volume fraction of intermetallic compounds during the intensification of the welding process. The final strength consists of the number of defects, the volume fraction of intermetallics and the complexity of the interface

Experimental characterization of anomalous strong scattering of mm-waves in TEXTOR plasmas with rotating islands

Anomalous scattering of high power millimetre waves from gyrotrons at 140 and 110 GHz is investigated for plasma with rotating islands at TEXTOR. The magnetic field and plasma density influence the spectral content of the scattered waves and their power levels significantly. Anomalous strong scattering occurs in two density regimes, one at low densities and one at high densities, that also depend on the magnetic field. The two regimes are separated by a quiescent regime without anomalous scattering. Investigations suggest that scattering in the high-density regime is generated at the low-field side intersection of the gyrotron beam and the island position. The transition from the quiescent regime to the high-density regime occurs when the gyrotron frequency is twice the upper hybrid frequency at this position. There is some evidence that the scattering in the low-density regime is generated near the plasma centre. Under this assumption all the observed scattering is generated when the gyrotron frequency is near or below twice the upper hybrid frequency

Suicidal thoughts and depressive feelings amongst Estonian schoolchildren: effect of family relationship and family structure

Depressive feelings and suicidal ideation in a non-clinical sample of adolescents in Estonia were analysed in the context of family structure, mutual relationships amongst family members and schoolchildren's preferences regarding intimate personal contacts with particular family members. Data from the WHO collaborative study 'Health Behaviour in School-aged Children 2005/2006' (HBSC) were used. A representative sample of schoolchildren aged 11, 13 and 15 years completed the semi-structured questionnaire. The analyses included only adolescents living in households with at least one birth parent. The subjects were 4,389 schoolchildren (2,178 boys and 2,211 girls), who were divided into three groups based on: (1) suicidal thoughts, with or without depressive feelings; (2) depressive feelings; and (3) neither suicidal thoughts nor depressive feelings. Multinomial logistic regression was used. The proportion of depressive feelings increased with age for both boys and girls. Girls expressed depressive feelings more frequently than boys from ages 13 and 15 years, and suicidal thoughts from age 15 years. Self-reported satisfaction with relationships in the family reduced the likelihood of depressive feelings and suicidal thoughts. Good communication with the parents reduced the likelihood of suicidal thoughts in all age groups. Adolescents who were satisfied with their family relationships suffered less frequently from depressive feelings and suicidal thoughts. The best environment for an adolescent was a family with both birth parents. Of the adolescents in 'non-intact' families, those with a step-parent in the family showed suicidal thoughts more frequently than those in single-parent families. Associations between family-related variables and suicidal thoughts were significant even after adjusting for family economic deprivation score
