The present paper aims to analyze the process of management and evaluation of teaching performance during the probationary internship at the Institutos Federais de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia [IF], based on the documents that guide these processes. The specific goals include debating the context of the probationary period; to point out the specificities of this evaluation of the performance of new teachers in the 38 Institutos Federais spread across the country, and present a new evaluation form. To this end, descriptive documental research was adopted with a qualitative approach. As for the results obtained, it observed that 63% of the IF have a standardizing document for the evaluation process in the probationary stage. Among the Institutes that have regulations, 58% are dated before 2012 and among the 42% of IF that have regulations after, only 4 are updated. In addition, it found that only 32% of the Institutos Federais have a teacher evaluation performed by the students. As for the forms used by these institutions, 87% use closed forms, 10% mixed and only 3% opened. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Through the clinical diagnosis it is possible to identify some kinetic-functional disorders, elaborate the physiotherapeutic goals and choose the most appropriate resources and techniques. The objective was to analyze the clinicalprofile of patients treated in the child neurology sector in a physiotherapy clinic. This is an observational, retrospective study with descriptive statistical analysis. Data collection was carried out through the medical records of patients seen over a period of 6 years (2013 to 2018). The sample was represented by 255 children, median age 25 months, with a predominance of boys (60%). The average age at which the mothers became pregnant (25.8±10.34years), and the level of education was equal to or greater than high school completion (60%). Among the most incident diagnoses, we obtained motor delay and down syndrome. As for the treatment time, the median was 8 months. Understanding the type of child assisted in the sector creates a way to promote better care, guiding professionals, teachers and students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The general goal of this study was to analyse the coverage of the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games conducted by the press office of the Brazilian Paralympic Committee (CPB), verifying possible convergences and divergences in the numeric distribution of publications and forms of portrayals of male and female athletes. The specific goals were: to identify the newsworthiness criteria of the publications; to analyse the narratives about the athletes; to verify the distribution of publications and images between genres. We collected the articles published on the CPB website from September 1 to 24, 2016 and performed a quantitativequalitative analysis of the data. The main news criterion was "results/victories", which was more associated to men than women. Athletes had less visibility and prominence in texts and images. Ensuring a higher quality presence for athletes in press coverage is essential for legitimizing women's parasports. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper submitted to the Colloquium Humanarum Journal deals with the Project of Life, selfmanagement and the culture of entrepreneurship. Our general objective is to analyze how the Project of Life - as a transversal curricular component - is associated with the culture of entrepreneurship. According to this culture, the Project of Life promises to develop the individuals in multiple dimensions, motivating them to solve problems and make decisions to achieve goals and accomplish professional fulfillment. When associated to the Project of Life, such culture imposes business devices - like competitiveness, performance and productivity - to the educational scope, submitting the training processes to a new governmentality. From that, we raise the following question: What have we made of ourselves under the control forms of life? We believe that the academic debate on the Project of Life is grounded in principles from the neoliberal market, prioritizing the formation of economically productive individuals, whose are, however, politically submissive and docile. Thus, we intend to discuss the role played by entrepreneurial pedagogical rationality in directing the forms of self-government. To develop our criticism, we adopt an analytical standpoint from Foucault's thoughts, which emerges as a theoretical framework capable of presenting the limits of neoliberal devices that place Education in the guidelines of productivity and effectiveness.

Piracicaba river basin, located in the central-eastern region of Minas Gerais, owns one of the largest and most importante remnants of Atlantic Forest biome in this State. Despite that, environmental pressures created by several economic activities, specially mining, are observed. To understand specificities of regional environmental dynamics could support the creation of more effective public policies for its conservation challenges. The main goal of this study is to identify vulnerable areas to soil loss in Piracicaba river basin, in order to support actions to mitigate environmental impacts and other socio-environmental processes. Specific goals are: to annalyze the role of every environmental component in the vulnerability generated map; to integrate the variables of the physical environment which directly influences the soil loss: climate, geology, soils, geomorphology and use and occupation. The integration of those variables was done by using the environmental vulnerability model of the basic territorial units proposed by Crepani et al. (2001). The results obtained in the model shows that, the southern region of the Piracicaba River basin, located in the edge of Quadrilátero Ferrífero, is more vulnerable to soil loss. The most stable areas are located in the northwest region of the basin. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study objective was to analyze the significance of the associations between Technology and Information Technology with the management practices of performance measurement in Brazilian Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). Therefore, an exploratory descriptive study was carried out through a survey by correspondence in the national organizations listed in the Brazilian Association of Non-Governmental Organizations (ABONG). Thus, a set of structural variables was selected, divided into two fundamental blocks: a) Technology and Information Technology (IT); b) performance planning practices and performance measurement practices. For the analysis process of the association results, the Spearman correlation coefficient was used, considering those with levels of 99% (p= 0.01) as statistically significant. The principal associations between performance measurement practices and the contingency factor technology results revealed several positive and statistically significant correlations with performance planning, performance goals, performance indicators, data collection instruments, and finally, rewards and sanctions. In turn, IT contingency factors showed some positive and statistically significant correlations with the following practices: performance planning, performance indicators, and rewards and sanctions. Therefore, it is suggested that IT contingency factors and, mainly, technology positively influence the use of performance measurement management practices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to demonstrate the application of private autonomy in interpersonal relationships, especially affective relationships and, in this case, dating, considering that, currently, this type of relationship is too close to common-law marriage. Many times, because couples live their relationship to the fullest, common-law marriage is unduly recognized, thus invading the sphere of people's autonomy to determine how they relate to each other. In order to do so, we started by analyzing and telling apart autonomy of will from private autonomy, their correlation with the principle of minimum family law and fundamental right to free family planning applied to family relationships and, finally, debate whether it is possible to date today. It was found that, for people to be able to date freely and, consequently, fulfill their personal goals, achieving their so desired happiness, minimum intervention in the couple's private sphere is necessary. Thus, people's freedom to determine how to experience their relationship should prevail, without interference that could lead to an unwanted and non-existent commonlaw marriage situation. In order to do so, the deductive method was used through bibliographical research, and the study of Brazilian legislation and doctrine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
