Na transição do século XX para o XXI, o Brasil é fortemente impactado pela globalização capitalista e neoliberal. Os governos eleitos na década de 1990 se aliam ao projeto neoliberal, representado pelo Consenso de Washington. Nesse processo, as orientações gerais dos governos Fernando Collor, Itamar Franco e Fernando Henrique Cardoso, obedeceram ao receituário, ou conjunto de regras e normas, indicadas pelos organismos internacionais - GATT/OMC, FMI e Banco Mundial. Reforma do Estado, controle das contas públicas, estabilidade monetária, contenção dos gastos sociais, privatização, desregulação do trabalho e da economia, flexibilização e fim das barreiras alfandegárias foram suas palavras de ordem. Pari passu, se desenvolvem as ideias de globalização e mundialização, de modernidade e pós-modernidade. No Brasil desse período, o tema alça relevância e um conjunto de intelectuais do país se propõe a refletir sobre os impactos de tal processo. O tema da globalização será objeto de alguns dossiês publicados por revistas acadêmicas: Revista do Instituto Avançados-IEA/USP, Cadernos CEBRAP e Universidade e Sociedade-ANDES. Vários autores também publicaram no período livros nos quais a temática central era a globalização, seus impactos e desdobramentos. Temas como o papel do Estado, técnicas e tecnologias, identidade, diversidade, cultura nacional e de massa, globalização e dependência orientam esses livros. Ao mesmo tempo que se pensa sobre a globalização, ela vai nos subsumindo com suas novas técnicas e tecnologias. O estudo em tela tem justamente o objetivo de compreender como esse debate se estabeleceu no país nos anos 1990, fazendo um esforço para trazê-lo para o presente. A pesquisa teve como fonte os artigos, revistas e livros publicados sobre o tema. / In the passage from the 20th century to the 21st, Brazil was heavily impacted by a globalization both capitalist and neoliberal. The elected governments along the decade of 1990 aligned themselves with the neoliberal project, represented by the Washington Consensus. Amidst this process, the overall guidelines of the mandates of Fernando Collor, Itamar Franco, and Fernando Henrique Cardoso obeyed the neoliberal prescriptions, that is, its set of rules and fundamental norms appointed by international organizations such as the GATT/WTO, the IMF, and the World Bank. Measures pointed toward the reform of the state, monetary stability, retrenchment of social expenditures, privatization of public services, deregulation of the workplace and of the economy, and the removal of customs barriers were its motto. Simultaneously, the ideas of globalization and mundialization, of modernity and post-modernity developed. In Brazil at that time, those themes gain relevance, and a group of intellectuals sets out to reflect on and analyze its impacts. The subject of globalization, along with its developments and consequences, becomes central to a few academic dossiers and books published during that period, guided by analysis regarding the role of the State, techniques and technologies, identity, diversity, national culture and mass culture, and globalization and dependency. At the same time that globalization is reflected upon, it subsumes the thinker with its new techniques and technologies. This study aims to understand how this debate was established in the country during the decade of 1990 and attempts to bring it to the present. The research had, as sources, articles, academic magazines, and books published on the subject.

Orientador: Oswaldo Francisco de Almeida Júnior / Banca: Helen de Castro Silva Cesarin / Banca: José Fernando Modesto da Silva / Resumo: Paralelamente ao avanço da tecnologia e uso da expressão "Sociedade do Conhecimento", percebe-se pessoas que não sabem efetuar a contento pesquisas e leituras. Alguns professores e bibliotecários escolares preocupam-se apenas com a orientação na aquisição de habilidades para o uso dos recursos tecnológicos na localização de informação. Esquecem que a ambiência da biblioteca, maior que seu espaço físico, deve alcançar os lares dos alunos, salas de aula e outros aportes de apoio pedagógico. Sendo assim, procurou-se responder questões como: O bibliotecário sabe que é um mediador? Como tem sido esta mediação? O bibliotecário acompanha as mudanças tecnológicas, inserindo-as em seu fazer cotidiano? A virtualização da informação facilita o uso das fontes/recursos de pesquisa e a capacidade de selecionar informação e ampliar conhecimento? O estudo teve como objetivos: avaliar a percepção do bibliotecário quanto a sua responsabilidade cotidiana em mediar a pesquisa escolar, independentemente da ambiência em que se encontra; analisar a postura e as habilidades técnicas/cognitivas do bibliotecário na mediação da pesquisa em um momento de crescente virtualização da informação; verificar o processo de utilização de recursos tecnológicos na busca de informação; identificar a existência de parceria entre bibliotecário e professor na prática da pesquisa escolar; obter subsídios para propostas de projetos/ações que visem busca de soluções para que a pesquisa escolar atinja seus objetivos.Buscou-se embasamento teórico por meio da literatura pertinente e para coleta de dados aplicou-se uma entrevista focalizada com o profissional bibliotecário em seis escolas de ensino fundamental da cidade de Londrina. / Abstract: In parallel with the advancement of technology and use of the term "the knowledge society", realizes it is people who do not know sign to the satisfaction surveys and readings. Some teachers and school librarians concern itself only with the guidance in the acquisition of skills for the use of technological resources in tracking information. Forget that the environment of the library, more than its physical space, must reach the homes of students, classrooms and other contributions of teaching materials. Therefore, it is answering questions such as: The librarian knows who is a mediator? As has been the mediation? The librarian accompanies technological change, inserting them into their daily lives do? The virtualization of the information facilitates the use of sources / resources research and the ability to select information and expand knowledge? The study aimed to: assess the perception of the librarian as its responsibility in daily mediate the search school, regardless of the environment in which it is; examine the attitude and technical skills / knowledge of the librarian in mediation of the search in a time of growing virtualization of documents; verify the process of the use of technological resources in the search for information; identify the existence of partnership between librarian and professor in the practice of research school; obtain subsidies for proposals for projects / activities aimed at finding solutions to the search school reaches its objectives. Intent is a theoretical through the relevant literature and to collect data applied to be a focused interview with the professional librarian in six schools of basic education of the city of Londrina. / Mestre

The research took place at the State School Dom Alano Marie Du Noday Palmas (Tocantins, Brazil). The theoretical reference adopted treats the context of the knowledge society, education policies aimed to insertion of technology in schools, pedagogical practices through the use of technology and its articulation with the curriculum and project methodology, supported by Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Toffler, Dowbor , Hargreaves, Burbules, Mattelart, Fuks, Chauí, Almeida, Moraes, Pacheco, Apple, Silva, Gimeno Sacristán, Costa Monteiro and Loureiro, Batista, Cuban, Dewey, Schön, Goodson, Hernández, Prado, Freire, Papert, Almeida and Valente, Cappelletti, Esteban, among others. The theoretical-methodological principles are based on qualitative research supported in interpretive research of Erickson (1984, 1986, 1989). The data were collected from the following sources: documents related to UCA Project, Political- Pedagogical Project, field diary, interviews, focal group and questionnaires. The research subjects were students, parents, teachers, project managers and Training Brazil-UCA trainer at school. This study shows that the school lived with some different actions and conventional practices in the same time. The parents indicated that their children became more autonomous. Despite favorable to the insertion of the laptop at the school, parents had a wary eye about the changes that the computer causes in teaching practice, and they said that there was no change in the relationship between parents and the school. Managers betray the conception of the technologies being adornment, teaching and learning appendage. The students recognize that the class is more interesting. They can explore many tools. They learn better and in a different way. The teachers conceptions about the education laptop use in class is conditioned to technological appropriation, the technicalpedagogical support and influence of initial training. In the fifth and sixth years of the Dom Alano Marie Du Noday, the study revealed that two women teachers created loopholes. They gave new meaning to what they did when incorporated cooperative work, dialogue and reflection on teaching practice, establishing improvement in the teacher-student and student-student relationship. Those two women teachers had the student how the center teaching and learning process. Among other teachers of the Dom Alano Marie Du Noday, with whom there was also approach on the subject studied, it was verified that they walked toward a reflective practice, but the those teachers activities involving the laptop had not student how center of the process of teaching and learning. In many cases, the use of computer reinforces actions carried out with pencil and paper. Finally, it is considered that the answers are provisional and concerning the researched moment / Esta tese teve o objetivo de investigar as práticas pedagógicas com o uso do laptop educacional em sala de aula, tendo em vista a implantação do Projeto Um Computador por Aluno (UCA). A pesquisa teve como local o Colégio Estadual Dom Alano Marie Du Noday em Palmas (TO). O referencial teórico trata da contextualização da sociedade do conhecimento e das políticas educativas voltadas para inserção das tecnologias nas escolas. Investigamos as práticas pedagógicas associadas ao uso das tecnologias, sua articulação com o currículo e a metodologia de projetos, tendo como suporte Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Toffler, Dowbor, Hargreaves, Burbules, Mattelart, Fuks, Chauí, Almeida, Moraes, Pacheco, Apple, Silva, Gimeno Sacristán, Costa, Monteiro e Loureiro, Batista, Cuban, Dewey, Schön, Goodson, Hernández, Prado, Freire, Papert, Almeida e Valente, Cappelletti, Esteban, entre outros. Os aportes teórico-metodológicos fundamentaram-se nos princípios da investigação qualitativa apoiados na pesquisa interpretativa de Erickson (1984, 1986, 1989). Os dados foram coletados das seguintes fontes: documentos relacionados ao Projeto UCA, projeto político-pedagógico, diário de campo, entrevistas, grupo focal e questionários. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram alunos, pais, professores, gestores e formadora do projeto Formação Brasil-UCA no colégio. Este estudo mostra que a escola convivia com algumas ações diferenciadas e práticas convencionais ao mesmo tempo. Os pais apontaram que seus filhos se tornaram mais autônomos. Apesar de favoráveis à inserção do laptop no espaço escolar, os pais tiveram um olhar cauteloso sobre as alterações que o computador provoca na prática pedagógica e afirmaram que não houve mudança na relação pais-escola. Os gestores deixaram transparecer a concepção de as tecnologias serem adereço, apêndice do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Os alunos reconheceram que a aula era mais interessante. Podem explorar muitas ferramentas. Aprendem melhor e de um jeito diferente. A visão docente sobre o uso do laptop educacional em sala de aula é condicionada à apropriação tecnológica, ao apoio técnicopedagógico e à influência da formação inicial. No quinto e sexto anos do Dom Alano Marie Du Noday, o estudo revelou que duas professoras criavam brechas, davam novo significado ao que faziam, quando incorporavam o trabalho cooperativo, o diálogo e a reflexão à prática pedagógica, estabelecendo melhoria na relação professor-aluno e alunoaluno. Essas duas docentes tinham o aluno como centro do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Entre outros professores do Dom Alano Marie Du Noday, com os quais também houve abordagem sobre o assunto estudado, foi possível verificar que eles caminhavam rumo a uma prática reflexiva, mas as atividades desses docentes envolvendo o laptop ainda não tinham o aluno como centro do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Em muitos casos, o uso do computador reforçava ações realizadas com lápis e papel. Por fim, considera-se que as respostas são provisórias e concernentes ao momento pesquisado

Growing adoption of health information technologies is allowing healthcare providers to capture and store enormous amounts of patient data. In order to effectively use this data to improve healthcare outcomes and processes, clinicians need to identify the relevant measures and apply the correct analysis methods for the type of data at hand. In this dissertation, we present various data mining and statistical methods that could be applied to the type of datasets that are found in healthcare research. We discuss the process of identification of appropriate measures and statistical tools, the analysis and validation of mathematical models, and the interpretation of results to improve healthcare quality and safety. We illustrate the application of statistics and data mining techniques on three real-world healthcare datasets. In the first chapter, we develop a new method to assess hydration status using breath samples. Through analysis of the more than 300 volatile organic compounds contained in human breath, we aim to identify markers of hydration. In the second chapter, we evaluate the impact of the implementation of an electronic medical record system on the rate of inpatient medication errors and adverse drug events. The objective is to understand the impact on patient safety of different information technologies in a specific environment (inpatient pediatrics) and to provide recommendations on how to correctly analyze count data with a large amount of zeros. In the last chapter, we develop a mathematical model to predict the probability of developing post-operative nausea and vomiting based on patient demographics and clinical history, and to identify the group of patients at high-risk.

Purpose - The purpose of the thesis is to record the content of the information shared by buyer to supplier in independent dyadic business relationships in the clothes manufacturing industry of Imbaba and Warrak, Great Cairo, Egypt. The objective is as well to describe how this sharing is managed in terms of communication frequency, order cycle time and information technology used. Methodology – A case study was performed on four companies in the clothes manufacturing industry of Imbaba and Warrak, Egypt. The empirical data was collected through six semi-structured interviews. The results were thereafter analyzed through a summarized framework. Findings - The content of shared information is mainly of traditional character, nevertheless do 50 % of the relationships as well include elements of additional soft information. When the information sharing is performed through regular communication do the frequency vary with an average of 0.43, once every 2.3 days. The order cycle times vary from delivery the same day as order placement to three days after order placement, with an average of 0.5 days. The information is shared through two different information technologies: face-to-face and telephone. Research implications – Imbaba and Warrak are considered one of the poorest districts in the Great Cairo region. The region has although seen great development the last 12-15 years and is today a main district for the industry of clothes manufacturing in Cairo. The role of information sharing yet appears to be poorly examined. Originality/value - Making the situation evident to the case companies will impact on their possibilities to make further improvements within the area of information sharing. Key words Information sharing, dependence, independence, dyad, content, frequency, order cycle time, information technologies. Paper type Bachelor Thesis

E-learning provides faster learning at reduced costs, increased access to learning, and clear accountability for all participants in the learning process. Benefits of this kind of learning are obvious. Western Europe or USA are far ahead creating virtual learning environments and we need to improve a lot in this field in Lithuania. The theme of the work is “Research of learning in e-School”. The result of that analysis was learning management system that enables instructors to create and manage web-based learning activities and course materials. There is possibility to individualize learning needs beside usual tools and methods. System user can estimate his knowledge and to watch the process of learning. Also student tracking has been done and it is the ability to track the usage of course materials by students, and to perform additional analysis and reporting both of aggregate and individual usage. Instructors can get a report that shows number of attempts and time per attempt on each assessment for individual students or report showing the duration of time each student or all students spent on course content. That can be very useful information for the future development of present e-course. In analysis process are viewed most popular e-learning systems like Moodle or WebCT. The system was designed with PHP, HTML and JavaScript programming languages, in concert with MySQL database management system. Rational Rose was used for designing and ULM diagrams, JavaScript – for... [to full text]

An educational system of individualistic teaching becomes more and more relevant when implementing the objectives of a modern Lithuanian school in the rapidly changing information environment. Such system is based on the methodology that may establish favourable conditions for not only efficient interception of information, but also encouragement of a person’s self-expression and self-realization, promotion of intellectual abilities and creativity, development of motivation and individual capabilities.

Žmogaus intelektas skirtingai pasireiškia priimant tam tikrus individualius ir grupinius sprendimus, todėl siekiama, jog sukurtos interakyvios mokomosios priemonės skatintų geriau realizuoti individualias psichofizines savybes. Taktinio mąstymo dėka žaidėjas analizuoja, pasirenka strategiją, kurią taikydamas priima geriausią situacijos sprendimą ir konkrečius veiksmus užsibrėžtam tikslui pasiekti. Dirbant pedagoginį darbą pastebėjau pasyvų mokinių požiūrį į kūno kultūrą, į sportą, todėl ryžausi panaudojus mokymo procese šiuolaikines informacines technologijas sukurti bei ištirti visame pasaulyje populiaraus žaidimo - krepšnio derinių mokomąją priemonę. Atlikus egzistuojančių programinių priemonių analizę, tikslas buvo įgyvendintas dviem realizacijom:  Su Testtool sistema buvo sukurta testavimui skirta mokomoji priemonė „TestTool Krepšinio deriniai“.  Adaptavus kitos sporto šakos - rankinio derinių, kūrimo aplinką DrillCad, sukurta priemonė „Basketball Drill Cad“, skirta modeliuoti taktiniams krepšinio deriniams. Kūrimo metu buvo naudojama Adobe Flex programavimo aplinka, php programavimo kalba, MySQL duomenų bazė ir kitos technologijos tinklalapiui sukurti bei derinių vaizdavimo sistemai vystyti. Priemonės platinimui ir grįžtamajam ryšiui gauti sukurta atskira svetainė, kuri gali būti naudojama į virtualią mokymosi aplinką Moodle. Abi sukurtas priemones įvertino 6 ekspertai. „TestTool Krepšinio deriniai“ priemonę ekspertai teigiamai įvertino kaip efektyvią dėl...

Through tactical thinking, a player analyzes, chooses a particular strategy, by which application he makes best decision in a situation and makes concrete actions in order to reach a set goal. When working a pedagogical work, I have noticed a passive schoolchildren‘s attitude towards physical culture and sports, so I have decided to create and examine a tool for learning “Krepšinio deriniai” by using contemporary information technologies in the study process. Having accomplished an analysis of existing programmable tools, the aim was realized into two realizations: • With Testtool system a tool for education “Testtool Krepšinio deriniai” (Testtool basketball drills) was created. • Having adapted a creation environment DrillCad for another sports that is handball combinations, a tool „Basketball Drill Cad“ for designing tactical basketball combinations was created. During the creation, Adobe Flex programming environment, php programming language, MySQL data basis and other technologies were used for the creation of website and development of a system for the representation of combinations. In order to get feedback and for the distribution of tool, a separate website was created, which can be used as a virtual learning... [to full text]
