Rewriting portuguese women’s history at international expositions (1889-1908)

This article aims to understand how the changing nature of industrial schooling contributed to the erasure of women’s participation. Industrial schooling, manual work and the politics of exposition were increasingly conceived as male, despite the Portuguese tradition of female artisanal production. With the promotion of technological modernization, at the turn of the nineteenth century, women’s artisanal or mechanical productions were no longer considered “industrial;” henceforth they ceased to be recognized as a professional activity and were mistakenly categorized as homework. Marques Leitão and António Arroio appear as key players in this process through their efforts to redesign industrial schooling with a representation of industry that was more limited than before. In the process they repositioned women’s work firmly within the home, introducing a vision of feminine domesticity which had not held sway in Portugal until then. In the first three decades of the twentieth century, both men consolidated their vision of industrial schooling through written reports and studies that synthesized the legal and pedagogical changes that they defended. These documents, written by “experts” in the field, served as precious primary sources. Reality is the product of what is said and what is left unsaid. In this case, the material traces left by the industry of women lace workers in expositions offers a suggestive way to rewrite this history.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Focus on form approach in learning and teaching portuguese as an L2: a study in Cape Verde

El objetivo principal de este artículo es presentar una parte de un estudio de caso realizado en tres escuelas secundarias de Praia (Cabo Verde) que tiene como objetivo observar y describir la realidad del aprendizaje y de la enseñanza del portugués como segunda lengua (PL2), en general, y de la gramática en particular, y, en consecuencia, verificar si los profesores pueden utilizar las estrategias didácticas actuales para la enseñanza de la gramática, como el enfoque en la forma. En este sentido, por un lado, vamos a dar cuenta de la práctica pedagógica de los tres profesores participantes y de sus percepciones con respecto a la experiencia con el enfoque en la forma, realizada durante el mes en que tuvo lugar la aplicación de nuevas estrategias que se prepararon específicamente para el estudio. Y, por otro lado, demostrar cómo los alumnos evalúan el impacto que este enfoque tiene en su aprendizaje.The main purpose of this article is to present a part of a case study carried out in three high schools of Praia (Cape Verde) so as to observe and describe the reality of the learning and teaching of Portuguese as a second language (PL2), in general, and of the grammar, in particular, and, consequently, to verify if teachers are able to use up-to-date didactic strategies for grammar teaching, such as the focus on form. In this sense, we will give an account of the observed pedagogical practice of the three participating teachers and their perceptions regarding the experience with the focus on form during the month in which the implementation of new strategies planned specifically for the study took place. Moreover, we will also focus on how students evaluate the impact this approach has on their learning

Resonant invisibility with finite range interacting fermions

We study the eigenstates of two opposite spin fermions on a one-dimensional lattice with finite range interaction. The eigenstates are projected onto the set of Fock eigenstates of the noninteracting case. We find antiresonances for symmetric eigenstates, which eliminate the interaction between two symmetric Fock states when satisfying a corresponding selection rule.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
