- A valorização das inteligências múltiplas: um aliado no processo pedagógicoPublication . Madureira, CristianaEsta comunicação pretende refletir sobre a valorização das inteligências múltiplas (Gardner, 1995) no processo pedagógico. Acreditamos que a escola deve ser vivenciada como um lugar de afetos, em que a comunidade educativa goste de estar, no sentido de que todos e cada um dos agentes educativos se possam desenvolver em termos humanos, num processo de educação ao longo da vida. Através do desenvolvimento de atividades centradas na relação dialógica proposta por Paulo Freire (2007), será problematizada a necessidade de uma ética do encontro (Najmanovich, 2016) e do desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas que contribuem para que os alunos desenvolvam todo o seu potencial humano, partindo dos seus talentos individuais. As práticas pedagógicas desenvolvidas no exercício da pedagogia do laço e do afeto permitem o desenvolvimento de todo o potencial dos alunos, valorizando assim as diversas inteligências. O professor assume aqui um papel primordial, contribuindo para que o aluno se emocione e se envolva, para desenvolver as aprendizagens e as competências previstas no Perfil dos Alunos à Saída da Escolaridade Obrigatória. Serão problematizadas estratégias promotoras do sucesso, centradas na educação da mente (saber saber), do coração (saber ser/estar) e das mãos (saber-fazer), pois só assim se poderá promover o bem-estar a paz e a realização plena em contexto escolar (saber conviver com os outros). Com estas estratégias procura contribuir-se para o “pleno desenvolvimento da personalidade humana e o fortalecimento do respeito pelos direitos humanos e pelas liberdades fundamentais”, tal como prevê o art. 26.º da Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos.
- Gold Medals, Silver Medals, Bronze Medals, and Total Medals: An Analysis of Summer Paralympic Games from 1992 to 2016Publication . Jacinto, Miguel; Monteiro, Diogo; Matos, Rui; Antunes, RaulThe Paralympic Games (PG) are considered one of the biggest events in the world, with increasing coverage by media and participation. The present study aimed to investigate the variation in the number of gold, silver, bronze, and totals medals in the Summer PG from 1992 to 2016. Data related to the results were extracted from the International Paralympic Committee to an SPSS database. Descriptive statistics and Friedman’s two-way analysis of variance by ranks were used to check the differences across medals in seven editions of the Summer PG, with the correspondent effect sizes. There was a peak in the maximum number of any type of medal between the 1996 and 2000 Summer PG and a decrease until 2008. After that, the number of any kind of medals has been increasing again. There were also significant differences with intermediate to large effect sizes when comparing more distant PG with more recent events. Several external factors can influence performance indicators (e.g., the number of medals) in a negative or positive way. An increase in the number of participants and a greater and better investment by the countries may explain part of our results. The preparation of an athlete must be based on a multidisciplinary team, and future organizing countries must take into account reports of previous events.
- Coisas que fazem falta - retomando a sugestãoPublication . Quintaneiro, Leonardo Pereira da Graça; Faria, Nuno Filipe Moreira Ribeiro deNesta dissertação tentei dar mais atenção ao processo. Escrever uma dissertação em artes plásticas é algo manhoso. Arranjar o equilíbrio entre não falar de mais e falar o suficiente - se o que faço é visual então as letras não lhe chegam nem lá perto e por isso a melhor coisa que tenho a falar é o caminho e logística e não o visual. Segundo o documento, usei a palavra ‘coisa’ 106 vezes (sem contar com esta). Através dos diários e registos fotográficos somos convidados, espero, a um estar íntimo no atelier, um apontar dos processos e pequenas coisas que se vão pensando, formulando e passando. Foi minha tentativa pensar e questionar sobre o que aconteceu com o meu fazer e processos nos quatro semestres de Mestrado, falar sobre o que influenciou a prática artística, as estratégias de resolução com o material e assuntos, os erros, a espera, o erotismo e poética dos materiais e, se me proponho então a falar do que se passou nesses dois anos, achei justo, também, mencionar conversas com docentes e colegas
- Promoting Physical Activity in Older Adults With Type 2 Diabetes via an Anthropomorphic Conversational Agent: Development of an Evidence and Theory-Based Multi-Behavior InterventionPublication . Pimenta, Nuno; Félix, Isa Brito; Monteiro, Diogo; Marques, Marta Moreira; Guerreiro, Mara PereiraIntroduction: Anthropomorphic conversational agents (ACA) are a promising digital tool to support self-management of type 2 diabetes (T2D), albeit little explored. There is a dearth of literature on the detailed content of these interventions, which may limit effectiveness and replication. Our aim is to describe the development of an evidence and theory-based intervention to improve physical activity in older adults with T2D, subsumed in a multi-behavior intervention via a mobile application with an ACA. Methods: Overall decisions on the multi-behavior intervention design, such as the use of standardized behavior change techniques (BCTTv1), guided the development of the physical activity component. Firstly, recommendations on ambulatory activity were used to select the target behavior (walking). Meta-research on effective behavior change techniques (BCTs) was then identified. One meta-analysis linked effective BCTs with the three basic psychological needs of the self-determination theory (SDT). This meta-analysis, taken together with additional evidence on SDT, led to the selection of this theory to inform the design. BCTs were extracted from meta-research; we selected the most appropriate to be operationalized via the conversational agent through multidisciplinary discussions. Rules governing the dialogue flow and BCTs tailoring, taking the form “if some conditions hold then execute some action,” were derived based on the Basic Psychological in Exercise Scale (competence, autonomy, and relatedness scores), in conjunction with published evidence and multidisciplinary discussions. Results: Thirteen BCTs were implemented in the prototype via the ACA (e.g., goal setting behavior 1.1). Six if-then rules were derived and depicted in the dialogue steps through process flow diagrams, which map how the system functions. An example of a rule is “If competence score ≤ 10 then, apply BCT 1.1 with 500 steps increments as options for the daily walking goal; If competence score > 10 then, apply BCT 1.1 with 1,000 steps increments as options for the daily walking goal.” Conclusion: Evidence and SDT were translated into a mobile application prototype using an ACA to promote physical activity in older adults with T2D. This approach, which includes 13 BCTs and six if-then rules for their tailoring, may leverage the efforts of others in developing similar interventions.
