The project happened in Belo Horizonte (2005/2006) and Fortaleza (2008), this last one being our main object, composed with seven occupations. Lotes Vagos proposed the temporary occupation of urban vacancies. As a method, the artists made an agreement with the owners of the lands meanwhile opened the invitation to any propositions. In many possibilities of interpretations, Lotes Vagos made evident the public character given to a private space. In others, the project presents an invitation to open up a space to a reinvention of the self. During this investigation, it was possible to understand that whatever, concept developed by Agamben, the one who, in anyway, matters, is the main participant of the propositions on the urban vacancies. It became clear, also, that both artists and whatever user made the action happen. / Esta pesquisa está motivada em um diálogo entre o projeto Lotes Vagos: Ação Coletiva de Ocupação Urbana Experimental, dos artistas Breno Silva e Louise Ganz, e os conceitos de comum e comunidade segundo o filósofo italiano Giorgio Agamben, bem como outros que atravessam a formulação destes, como impropriedade, tempo, espaço e invenção. O projeto aconteceu em Belo Horizonte (2005/2006) e em Fortaleza (2008), sendo este último nosso interesse principal, composto por sete atividades. Lotes Vagos propunha a ocupação temporária de terrenos baldios. Como método, os artistas acordavam um contrato com os donos dos terrenos enquanto abriam a convocação a qualquer um para as proposições temporárias. Entre muitas de suas camadas de leitura, fica evidente o caráter público dado aos lotes privados. Em outras, o projeto se dá como propositor de uma abertura do espaço para que se faça uma reinvenção de si, atravessados pela ideia de impropriedade que ali se instaura. No decurso dessa investigação, percebemos que o qualquer, na conceituação formulada por Agamben, aquele que, de todo modo, importa, é o usuário das atividades propostas nos terrenos baldios, e que o participante faz, junto com os propositores, a ação acontecer.

El origen de nuestra idea surge de la observación de la evolución del mercado en materia de Derecho con la llegada a nuestro medio de grandes estudios de abogados, los cuales requieren contar con profesionales altamente calificados y especializados en los temas vinculados con el common law y ampliamente requeridos en los países anglosajones y en especial en los Estados Unidos. Detectamos una oportunidad de negocio basada en el hecho de que en la actualidad ninguna Universidad local satisface esta necesidad, lo cual hace más atractiva nuestra idea. Nuestro análisis muestra que el mercado es atractivo y que los profesionales en Derecho son conscientes de la necesidad de especializarse para crecer profesionalmente. Validamos nuestra propuesta mediante un sondeo realizado a nuestro público objetivo, el cual confirma la gran aceptación de nuestra idea y nos permite definir con más precisión las características y los beneficios de nuestro programa. Como consecuencia hemos diseñado un programa de Maestría en Derecho con doble titulación mediante un convenio con una universidad prestigiosa de los Estados Unidos, la cual otorgaría el famoso título de Master of Laws (LL.M.) Nuestro análisis financiero demuestra que nuestra propuesta es viable económicamente desde el primer año con un margen de utilidad del 11.1%, el cual irá creciendo rápidamente para alcanzar el 36.5% el segundo año y el 45.5% al quinto año cuando el programa haya alcanzado mejor su posicionamiento en el mercado, demostrando así su sostenibilidad. / The large law firms, require highly qualified and specialized professionals in issues related to the common law and widely required in the Anglo-Saxon countries and especially in the United States. Currently no local university meets this need, which allows us to detect a business opportunity, which we validate through a survey conducted to our target audience We designed a Master of Laws program with double degrees through an agreement with a prestigious university in the United States, which would grant the famous title of Master of Laws (LL.M.) Our financial analysis shows that our proposal is economically viable from the first year and projects a profit margin of more than 30% from the second year, thus demonstrating its sustainability. / Trabajo de investigación

This study concerns students' ideas about the existence or otherwise of forces in several dynamical situations involving moving objects and objects at rest. It aims to contribute to a better understanding of students' ideas about dynamics. It differs from previous research (a) in covering a wider-range among students and larger variation in taught Physics background. (b) in attempting to tap less verbal forms of evidence and (c) in attempting to avoid 'scientifism' in terms of the way to approach students and in terms of interpreting results. The empirical part of the study involved 338 students from seven different groups. Data was collected from the above sample. using a questionnaire to which responses were simply graphic indications of the directions of expected forces. and. if possible. the giving of names to these forces. in eight situations presented diagrammatically. In addition. data was collected from a sub-sample. by means of computer games using a screen 'object' obeying Newtonian Mechanics. in a frictional and a non-frictional 'environment'. under the control of the subject. Difficulties in interpreting the last kind of data led to the main study being focussed on the results of the questionnaire. Some results from the computer games are however presented. They are mainly concerned with students' performance when playing in a frictional versus non-frictional 'environment'. Results suggest a better students' performance when playing in a frictional 'environment'. Results obtained with the questionnaire concern: (a) differences between situations in patterns of expected directions. among students of the same group and between groups. Generally the results suggest the existence of common patterns among the students of the same group and systematic differences between patterns of groups with an increase in exposure to physics teaching. namely the attribution of new force directions [e.g. vertical and downwards. opposite to motion). despite the persistence of primitive ideas (e.g. a force along the motion); (b) names given to the different kinds of forces in various directions. Results include a difficulty found in naming forces which existed before teaching. They also give information about how scientific terms are assimilated. Interpretations of the results. mainly taken from a theory of Common Sense Reasoning about motions proposed by Ogborn (1985). seem to give them a reasonable explanation. Although requiring further investigation. this gives some support to claim that students' intuitive ideas about dynamics should be regarded [i] as deriving from a rather general and coherent set of ideas, [ii] as less formalized in terms of the scientific world view and [iii] as having their origin mainly in actions on the world.
