In the teaching of science, experiences are carried out which seek for students to develop skills to describe and compare phenomena or make measurements, prioritizing the sense of vision. This leads to reflect on particular strategies when this sense is lacking. For this reason, in recent years, a set of actions derived from the public education policy have been undertaken, which have made it possible to include people with visual functional diversity (VFD) in the teaching and learning processes of physics, thus allowing for continuous reflection on pedagogical and didactic aspects in which the sensory conditions of the students are recognized. To identify the theoretical and methodological advances in this field, a review of articles was carried out, with an observation window from 2010 to 2022, using different databases and searching in journals specialized in the teaching of physics. It was found that it is an emerging field of research in which progress has been made with respect to adaptation, the construction of didactic material, and software design, so that this community can access the explanations given within the framework of science on phenomena of the natural world, making use primarily of the senses of touch and hearing.

We share the literature review of the thesis NETWORK CITIZENSHIP: transparency and accountability in access to information, defended in the Graduate Program in Information Science at the Federal University of Paraíba, in 2021. Its objective was to identify the extent to which the transparency portals of Brazilian capitals and the Federal District meet the characteristics that allow accountability. From the Access to Information Law (LAI), the public transparency movement emerged in Brazil, causing public opacity to lose space for public transparency. This movement, however, by itself is not enough to consolidate citizenship and democracy, for that it is essential that the citizen can exercise public accountability. of accountability We identified that despite the advance in terms of conditions that allow them to be considered as transparent and to identify signs of accountability, the literature review was fundamental in this knowledge process.

Some global phenomena such as globalization, the US-China trade war and Covid-19, have led companies around the world to consider reshoring strategies - backshoring and/or nearshoring - with the purpose of configuring more efficient supply chains and less susceptible to these events that generate disruptions in the world economy. Based on the foregoing, research has been developed in order to determine the factors that motivate companies to make reshoring decisions, finding the innovation factor as reiterative in many of these research works, in fact, it has been found that It is a factor that influences other factors. In this sense, this article aims to recognize the importance of innovation in companies' reshoring processes, through a narrative literature review where some background on location decisions is explored, the main relocation trends are described, and the importance of innovation within these relocation processes is established based on the work of different theoretical references. Among the main results of this review, it was found that i) innovation in transportation systems led many companies to have broader geographic scales to locate their operation and configure global supply chains; ii) access to innovation is a factor that is usually taken into account for the creation of reshoring government policies; iii) Innovation is a factor with a degree of transversality, since it affects other variables that are taken into account for reshoring.

This research aims to conduct an international literature review to show how Performance Evaluation, associated with cognitive biases, has been addressed in Public Administration and to identify research opportunities, guided by ProKnow-C. Among the findings, the following stand out: Evidence of the real concern of behavioral insights to improve public policies, such as the initiative of former President Barack Obama (USA), who created a permanent team of "Social and Behavioral Sciences of the White House"; the finding that individuals make more negative assessments of organizations if they are presented as public, and not as private, the "Public Antisector" bias.
