Social cartographies as performative devices in research on higher education
In this article, we review social cartography as a methodological approach to map and collectively engage diverse perspectives within the study of higher education. We illustrate the uses of this approach by drawing on our own experiences engaging it as part of an international research project about the effects of the convergence of globalization and economic crises in higher education. We offer several examples of how social cartography can enable agonistic collaboration amongst existing positions, as well as open up new spaces and possibilities for alternative futures in higher education
Desenvolvimento do software DRLinhagem para detecção de linhagens citoplasmáticas e avaliação de seu efeito sobre os pesos à desmama e ao ano de idade de animais Nelore no Centro-Oeste brasileiro Development of a DRLinhagem software to detect citoplasmatic lines and their effects on weaning and yearling weights of Nelore animals from the center west part of Brazil
Dados de 769.925 animais da raça Nelore, nascidos de 1965 a 2000, em 30 regiões distintas do Brasil, foram utilizados como base de dados para desenvolvimento de um programa computacional flexÃvel, de fácil uso, que permitisse a identificação de linhagens fundadoras de rebanhos, com filtro por paÃs, estado, região ou rebanho. Foi escolhida a região Centro-Oeste, representativa do Brasil, para o estudo pormenorizado do efeito citoplasmático sobre caracterÃstica de peso aos 205 e 365 dias de idade de animais Nelore. Os componentes de variância de linhagem citoplasmática foram iguais a 0,58x10-3 para peso aos 205 dias e 0,80x10-3 para o peso aos 365 dias e contribuÃram com 1,00x10-5% e 9,90x10-6% da variância fenotÃpica total. Os componentes de variância aditivo direto foram responsáveis por 11 e 21% da variação fenotÃpica total dos pesos aos 205 e 365 dias de idade.Records on 769,925 Nelore animals born from 1965 to 2000, in 30 regions of Brazil were used as base data to develop a flexible a ease use computational program for identifying maternal base lines in herds, allowing filter by country, state, region and herd. The Center-West region was selected for a detailed study of cytoplasmatic lines on weaning and yearling weights of Nelore animals. The estimated variance components for citoplasmatic lines were .58 x 10-3 and .80 x 10-.8 for weaning and yearling weights, respectively, and accounted for 1.00x10-5 and 9.90x10-6 of total weights variance, respectively. The direct additive component accounts for 11 and 12% of the total phenotypic variance of weaning and yearling weights
