The São Paulo Network Program of Teacher Training (RedeFor) of the Secretary of Education of São Paulo State /Brazil, has proposed in partnership with the São Paulo State University, the continuing education for teachers of the State public school system, through specialization courses, about Inclusive and Special Education, in the distance learning modality. In order to meet an audience of 1.600 teachers, seven courses were implemented from 2014 to 2015, amongst which is the course of Special Education, with a total workload of 444 hours spread between activities in the Virtual Learning Environment of UNESP, internships, In-Person Meetings as well as preparation and presentation of scientific papers. After the completion of disciplines and In-Person Meetings, in 2015 were created 55 groups for the guidance of academic papers, where each supervisor had to perform the online pedagogical mediation of 10 to 20 course participants for the preparation of a scientific paper. It is intended to discuss in this article the aspects present in two scientific papers developed within the course, which addressed the discussion about the beginning teachers and curriculum for the development of Special Education within the Inclusive perspective. The results demonstrate that this specialization course brought important elements to the axis of participant's reflections, so that Special Education can really be strengthened in an inclusive perspective, in the public schools of São Paulo.

Introduction: The final paper has the purpose of bringing the student closer to the practice of research and experience with the ethical aspects which are relevant to intellectual property and research with human beings. Its elaboration facilitates the investigation of a problem and the elaboration of solutions that consolidate the knowledge acquired during the course. Objective: Featuring the graduation final paper in occupational therapy of a public university. Method: This is descriptive, qualitative-quantitative research that used data which were collected in 154 documents, as well as in questionnaires answered by 24 advisors. Results: The works were mostly literature review or documentary research, with a qualitative approach, which used the field notebook as a data collection instrument. The most studied areas were the Hospital Context and Family Health, in works related to the themes experienced by the students in projects of extension, research, disciplines or internship. The orientations were carried out only by the advisor, within their research areas, and the most found problem was the difficulty in the student’s writing process. The examination boards were made up of effective or temporary teachers from the own course, who signaled the methodology as the main failure of the work. Conclusion: The data showed that students need more opportunities to exercise and elaborate a scientific text before the moment of the final paper creation and those teachers need to support their pupils in the search for more diversified research objects, instruments, and methodologies.

A crescente importância da cadeia de suprimentos tem levado pesquisadores a desenvolverem um volume significativo de trabalhos sobre o tema. Ao mesmo tempo, devido ao seu recente surgimento, esse fenômeno organizacional é complexo e engloba inúmeras variáveis, tornando igualmente complexo o processo de escolha do objeto de pesquisa por pesquisadores e estudantes. Por essa razão, esse artigo tem o objetivo de proporcionar uma análise dos principais tópicos estudados em 173 artigos sobre gestão da cadeia de suprimentos publicados nos principais periódicos acadêmicos internacionais entre 2004 e 2006. Os resultados mostram que os artigos focam, principalmente, a coordenação e a troca de informações entre empresas, a configuração da produção, o design e o desempenho da cadeia de suprimentos. Além disso, também são destacadas as características de alguns dos principais periódicos internacionais. Diversos tópicos, ainda, precisam ser estudados até que a gestão da cadeia de suprimentos se solidifique como disciplina.In recent years, supply chain management has received greater attention, hence leading researchers to develop many papers on this topic. Due to its recent development, this organizational phenomenon is complex and has many variables, making the process of choosing a research topic also complex for researchers and students. Thus, this paper aims to provide an analysis of the major topics studied in over 173 papers published about supply chain management in the most important international production and operation management journals between 2004 and 2006. The results show that the major topics are coordination, information sharing between companies, production decisions, and supply chain design and performance. Many topics should also be the focus of future studies until the supply chain management becomes a discipline.

The present study aims at identifying how the everyday life concept is used in the Occupational Therapy field in the English language literature and at making considerations in relation to the Brazilian literature on the subject. A systematic review of the international literature on the everyday life concept in the Occupational Therapy field was carried out and, from the results of this phase, reflections about the differences and similarities noticed in the use of this concept in the field of occupational therapy in Brazil are presented. Twenty articles selected from the CAPES (Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel) database were elected for analysis. This analysis found that English speaking authors, on the issue of everyday life rupture, focus on the assistance needed to help individuals to be able to perform their former occupations in an autonomous way. Besides, the way people live their everyday lives is an element that constitutes the person’s identity; people become what they are from their occupations. Everyday life is described in occupational terms; it is understood by the meaningful things people do in their lives. It is pointed out that, as opposed to the national literature, the international literature does not focus on the connection between everyday life and the social-political-cultural context. Thus, we discuss that the understanding about the contextualized everyday life is shared with Brazilian occupational therapists, and it has the potential to be presented as a construct on which the Brazilian contemporary occupational therapy identity is built.

Este trabalho examina alguns modelos de otimização conhecidos da literatura para o problema de corte, e reporta uma experiência real da aplicação destes modelos numa indústria de papel e papelão (problema unidimensional) e numa indústria de móveis (problema bidimensional). Também são discutidas algumas modificações nos modelos originais para incorporar restrições práticas dos processos de corte, tais como, unidades de estoque com tamanhos e custos diferentes, tolerância na demanda de clientes, entre outras. Alguns resultados computacionais são apresentados para um exemplo real da indústria de móveis, utilizando-se um microcomputador.This work examines some well-known optimization models for the cutting stock problem and reports a real experience of their application to a corrugated paper industry (one- dimensional problem) and to a furniture industry (two-dimensional problem). It is also discussed some modifications in the original models to incorporate practical constraints of the cutting processes, such as tolerance in the customer orders, among others. Some computational results from a real example of the furniture industry are presented utilizing a micro-computer.

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo estabelecer um mapeamento da produção científica divulgada em importantes periódicos publicados no Brasil sobre a aplicação de Métodos de Auxílio Multicritério à Decisão (AMD) à modelagem de problemas de Planejamento e Controle da Produção. O mapeamento contemplou 32 artigos, que foram selecionados criteriosamente, tendo como base a lista de periódicos científicos oferecida no Scielo e em importantes sociedades científicas brasileiras no âmbito da Engenharia de Produção. Os resultados permitiram indicar, entre outros aspectos, os periódicos que mais publicam neste contexto, os métodos de AMD mais usados nesta interface, os setores de produção nos quais as aplicações ocorreram e os tópicos de PCP mais abordados. Também foram destacados os aspectos de PCP que ainda carecem de estudos que envolvam métodos multicritério.The objective of this study is to map the Brazilian scientific production based on Brazilian journal publications on the implementation of Multicriteria Decision Aid (MCDA) to model Production Planning and Control problems.

The results revealed, among other aspects, the journals that publish the most on this topic, the most often used MCDA methods in this interface, the production sectors in which the applications took place, and the most commonly discussed PPC topics. This paper also highlights the PPC aspects that need further research including MCDA methods.

Este trabalho apresenta uma revisão bibliográfica (82 artigos) sobre a Manufatura Enxuta (ME), revisão esta não encontrada até agora na literatura de Gestão da Produção. A partir de tal revisão propôs-se um sistema de classificação para a ME baseada em 4 parâmetros: metodologia, abrangência, princípios e capacitadores, a qual serviu para classificar e estruturar os artigos da revisão. Uma vez classificada e estruturada, a revisão bibliográfica sobre ME serviu de base para uma ampla análise do tema. Essa análise se baseou em dois pontos fundamentais: i) um estudo quantitativo das metodologias, abrangências, princípios e capacitadores utilizados nos trabalhos e ii) um estudo qualitativo dos principais assuntos e objetivos alcançados por esses trabalhos. As principais contribuições deste trabalho são: servir de base para um maior conhecimento da literatura existente atualmente sobre ME e propor sugestões de pesquisas futuras na área.This work reviews the literature on Lean Manufacturing (LM). Until now, there was no complete literature review regarding this subject in the Operations Management literature. Based on this literature review it is proposed a LM classification system based on 4 main characteristics: methodology, comprehension, principles and enablers. The system is used to classify and to organize the papers. After that a general analyses of LM is performed. The LM analyses is based on 2 main points: i) a quantitative study of the methodology, comprehension, principles and enablers within LM papers; ii) a qualitative study regarding the main subjects and goals accomplished by the papers. The main contributions of this work are to contribute for mental clarification, communication and discovering new fields for research on LM.

Este artigo apresenta um sistema para classificar e codificar trabalhos (SCCA - sistema de classificação e codificação de artigos) que relacionam o Controle da Produção (CP) e o Controle da Qualidade (CQ). O sistema de classificação é baseado em três características principais do artigo: a natureza, o foco e os objetivos. O sistema de codificação emprega a idéia básica da tecnologia de grupo (codificação de famílias de peças), utilizando uma estrutura híbrida de três dígitos para codificar as características mencionadas anteriormente. O SCCA foi criado em função da realização de um survey, o qual procurou ser o mais completo possível, contendo 45 trabalhos que relacionam o CP e o CQ. O sistema é validado por sua utilização na classificação e codificação dos trabalhos encontrados no survey. Essa classificação e codificação serve, ao mesmo tempo, como auxílio para estruturar a revisão bibliográfica e para realizar uma análise geral sobre o tema. A partir dessa análise, este artigo consegue proporcionar maior conhecimento e comunicação das pesquisas existentes atualmente que relacionam o CP e o CQ, além de sugerir novas áreas de pesquisa dentro das relações entre CP e CQ. O artigo destaca ainda a importância de estudar a relação entre CP e CQ.This work presents a system for classifying and codifying papers (PCCS - papers classification and codification system) relating Production Control (PC) and Quality Control (QC). The classification system is based on three main characteristics. These characteristics are: the nature, the focus and the goals of the article. The codification system uses the basic idea of the Group Technology (codification of the families of parts). An hybrid structure with three digits is used to codify the characteristics aforementioned. A survey, compounded by 45 papers (we tried to perform a survey the most complete as possible) was accomplished and used to create the PCCS. The system is validated through its use on the classification and codification of the papers found on survey. The classification and codification is useful to structure the literature about PC and QC and to perform a general analysis about the theme. From the analysis of these papers, using our system, a mental clarification and communication of the researches relating PC and QC is obtained. After such analysis, new research areas within the relations between PC and QC can be suggested. The paper also highlights the importance in studying the relationship between PC and QC.
