The training of pedagogues has to take into account the various educational modalities. However, there is a concept of prioritizing formal education in Pedagogy courses. In view of this, this research project presents preliminary data from a study that aims to analyze how the development and application of gameboards in non-formal education spaces can contribute to the training of Pedagogy students. As the fiel...
Accreditation bodies call for curriculum development processes that are open to all stakeholders, reflecting viewpoints of students, industry, university faculty, and society. However, communication difficulties between faculty and non-faculty groups leave an immense collaboration potential unexplored. Using the classification of learning objectives, natural language processing, and data visualization, this pap...
In this paper, we use a path model to study natural ventilation in classrooms and research the link between air change rate, occupancy, and both outdoor and indoor physical variables. In general, the path model is derived from the building physics and occupant behavioral considerations via structural equation modeling (SEM), and allows for the use of continuous observable and unobservable factors. The latter ar...
Los intercambiadores de calor tierra-aire permiten amortiguar las oscilaciones de temperatura del aire exterior y enfriar edificios ubicados en climas cálidos y secos con muy pocos recursos además de los utilizados durante la construcción. A pesar del gran número de artículos científicos sobre intercambiadores tierra-aire, son pocos los trabajos que presentan datos de monitorización para intercambiadores funcio...
Introduction: The aim of the study was to describe trauma injuries associated with rope bullfights in the Azores, Portugal, regarding the cause of the incident, trauma mechanism, most affected anatomical areas, and injury severity.Methods: Two-year cross-sectional study in the local hospital with prospective data collection. Patients who were consecutively admitted to the local hospital’s emergency department w...
A formação do pedagogo tem que atender as diversas modalidades educativas. Contudo, há uma concepção de priorizar nos cursos de Pedagogia a educação formal. Diante disso, este projeto de pesquisa apresenta os dados preliminares do estudo que tem por objetivo analisar como o desenvolvimento e a aplicação de gameboards em espaços de educação não formal podem contribuir na formação dos estudantes de Pedagogia. Com...
Earth–air heat exchangers (EAHX) use the soil thermal capacity to dampen the amplitude of outdoor air temperature oscillations. This effect can be used in hot and dry climates for room cooling, and depending on the EAHX design, this cooling can be achieved with very few resources other than those used during EAHX construction. This is an obvious advantage compared to the significant energy consumption and opera...

As agências de acreditação promovem o desenvolvimento curricular “científico”; assente na educação orientada por objetivos e em princípios de alinhamento construtivo. Para por em marcha esta forma de encarar a educação definem-se mapas que representam visualmente as unidades curriculares (UC) de um curso (dispondo-as verticalmente em função do ano e horizontalmente para um mesmo ano) relacionando objetivos de a...
Como ponto de partida da definição, discussão e implementação de uma comunidade sustentável, podemos escolher a definição de Swales (1988, 1993, 1998) da comunidade de discurso que se baseia num conjunto de princípios a meditar.
