Esta pesquisa investiga o (des)interesse dos alunos do ensino fundamental, buscando, como objetivo geral, identificar e compreender fatores que produzem esta situação escolar. Provocou-nos a aparente normalidade com que é tratada a evasão e o fracasso escolar, por parte de muitos professores que se consideram impotentes diante dos problemas. Escolhemos como metodologia o estudo de caso e, como universo da pesquisa, um grupo de alunos do ensino fundamental que apresentava, como característica marcante, uma incidência de reprovação e de evasão, seguida de retorno à escola. A escola-parceira neste trabalho é pública e se localiza em bairro residencial de médio-baixo padrão econôm...
Este livro reúne um conjunto de investigações empíricas, pesquisas acadêmico-científicas, relatos de experiências e práticas pedagógicas desenvolvidas por líderes de pesquisa em educação e áreas afins e por educadores da rede pública e privada de ensino acerca do ‘ser/constituir-se professor’, consistindo em uma valiosa fonte bibliográfica para a realização de novas pesquisas no campo da educação.
Mobile Museums presents an argument for the importance of circulation in the study of museum collections, past and present. It brings together an impressive array of international scholars and curators from a wide variety of disciplines – including the history of science, museum anthropology and postcolonial history - to consider the mobility of collections. The book combines historical perspectives on the circulation of museum objects in the past with contemporary accounts of their re-mobilisation, notably in the context of Indigenous community engagement. Contributors seek to explore processes of circulation historically in order to re-examine, inform and unsettle common assumptions abou...

Universal basic income (UBI) is emerging as one of the most hotly debatedissues in development and social protection policy. But what are thefeatures of UBI? What is it meant to achieve? How do we know, andwhat don’t we know, about its performance? What does it take to implementit in practice? Drawing from global evidence, literature, and survey data, thisvolume provides a framework to elucidate issues and trade-offs in UBI with a viewto help inform choices around its appropriateness and feasibility in different contexts.Specifically, the book examines how UBI differs from or complements othersocial assistance programs in terms of objectives, coverage, incidence, adequacy,incentives, effects on poverty and inequality, financing, political economy, andimplementation. It also reviews past and current country experiences, surveys thefull range of existing policy proposals, provides original results from micro–tax benefitsimulations, and sets out a range of considerations around the analytics andpractice of UBI.

Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) is being rapidly introduced into the clinical management of early breast cancer. APBI, in fact, encompasses a number of different techniques and approaches that include brachytherapy, intraoperative, and external beam techniques. There is currently no single source that describes these techniques and their clinical implementation. This text is a concise handbook designed to assist the clinician in the implementation of APBI. This includes a review of the principles that underlie APBI, a practical and detailed description of each technique for APBI, a review of current clinical results of APBI, and a review of the incidence and management of treatment related complications.
