- JASM: Active Pedagogy for Foreign Language Learning in Higher Education.Publication . Costa, Ana Maria; Costa, Cristina Amaro; Coutinho, Emília; Oliveira, Isabel; Pereira, José; Lopez Garcia, Patricia; Roush, Paula; Gillain, Romain; Amante, Susana; Fidalgo, Susana; Relvas, Susana; Delplancq, VéroniqueJASM project (Janela aberta sobre o mundo: línguas estrangeiras, criatividade multimodal e inovação pedagógica no ensino superior) consists of an experience of active pedagogy with students of the undergraduate course in Media Studies at the School of Education in Viseu (Portugal). The main objective of JASM is to promote the acquisition of multilingual and multicultural skills and to generate multilingual awareness. In addition to the cognitive dimension, students explore the aesthetic and emotional dimensions of language. Experiences of artistic creativity (media arts, multimedia art, among others) enable multimodal communication in English and French, starting off with information gathering pertaining to the cultural and linguistic diversity of Viseu. After conducting research on the countries of origin of the chosen nationalities as well as the underlying cultures, the students, working in groups, found out about the life stories of migrants on the basis of interviews. Experiences of artistic creativity made it possible to exercise multimodal communication. An object or a tradition mentioned in the stories told by migrants allowed them to build a fictional story around the said object or tradition. Photos were taken at all stages of this work. A storyboard of each fictional story was developed. The Korsakow system made it possible to create dynamic documentaries. The disclosure of this learning experience is made public on the project site and through an e-book.The students' language level (written and oral comprehension and expression) was assessed at the start of the project, using tests. The intermediate evaluation is of a qualitative type as well as the final evaluation (interview type, carried out with students and teachers) due to COVID-19 crisis. The progress of the learning process, as well as the involvement of the teachers could thus be documented.
- Efeito da suplementação da dieta com Gracilaria gracilis na performance do crescimento, resposta imune e stress oxidativo de Sparus aurataPublication . Gomes, Emma Aline Fernandes Oliveira; Baptista, Teresa Maria Coelho; Afonso, Clélia Paulete Correia NevesCom o elevado crescimento do setor de aquacultura, o interesse no estudo da performance do crescimento de peixes e no fortalecimento do sistema imunológico, tem aumentado. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o efeito da adição de Gracilaria gracilis à ração de dourada, assim como avaliar o seu potencial de defesa num challenge bacteriano. Foram analisados os parâmetros de crescimento, parâmetros hematológicos, a performance imunológica (lisozima e peroxidase), as enzimas antioxidantes do stress oxidativo, parâmetros metabólicos plasmáticos e foi feita uma avaliação de alterações morfológicas dos intestinos. A dieta suplementada com 5% de G. gracilis moída, promoveu o crescimento, protegeu contra infeção por Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida e influenciou positivamente o perfil hematológico. Para além disso, não provocou alterações na morfologia do intestino, assim como não comprometeu a atividade das enzimas antioxidantes do stress oxidativo. Os peixes alimentados com a dieta suplementada com 5% de G. gracilis moída apresentaram contagem elevada de trombócitos, o que pode justificar a alta proteção contra a Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida, conferindo 95% de sobrevivência. A resposta imune não foi comprometida, tendo a dieta de extrato de alga a 0,15% apresentado uma maior concentração de lisozima. Em conclusão, a suplementação com alga moída foi capaz de melhorar a saúde dos peixes conferindo maior resistência bacteriana e melhor crescimento, o que permite considerar a G. gracilis um bom suplemento dietético para a aquacultura sustentável.
- Portuguese intra-EU migration. The dynamics of an ongoing migration processPublication . Góis, Pedro; Marques, José Carlos LaranjoEver since 2005, there has been an intensification in the outflows of Portuguese nationals, characterized by the transformation in the institutional context in which they occur, the emergence new destination countries, and the simultaneous resurgence of flows to traditional destinations. This article, applying data gathered from France and the UK, enhances the comprehension of contemporary Portuguese intra-EU migratory flows. It shows how this emigration is characterized by continuities and discontinuities with previous flows and by similarities and dissimilarities in the socio demographic characteristics of emigrants and their migratory paths and strategies. One proportion of these flows emerges as qualitatively different from past economic migration flows as regards both migrant demographic features and their migration processes. We may ascribe another proportion to the traditional economic migration framework that has enabled migrants to extend their opportunity structure beyond the national context in response to the obstructions experienced within national borders.
