Exploring the integration of indigenous beliefs in the teaching and learning of school sciences: a case study on lightning

Pabale, Morongwa Fonthy 28 May 2010 (has links)
Thesis (MSc Ed) --University of Limpopo, 2006. / This research study was carried out to explore the integration of Indigenous Knowledge Systems with a science topic, as advocated by the South African policy document called the National Curriculum Statement. The focus was on the integration of Indigenous Beliefs about lightning with the teaching of Static Electricity. The sample consisted of all my grade 10 learners who are eleven in number and one elder per learner, thus a sample of 22 people was made use of. The research process took place in two phases: the Baseline Study and the Teaching and Learning Process. The intention was to use data collected in the first phase to design the teaching and learning activities in the second phase. A series of four lessons was designed, and a variety of qualitative methods were used to collect data: interviews, questionnaires, and constructivist techniques. The findings presented in this research study are based on an analysis of four videotaped lessons and learners’ responses from the worksheets and evaluation forms. These findings suggest that for maximum results, the integration of Indigenous Knowledge Systems should be an ongoing process. / National Research Foundation (NRF)

Desenvolvimento de novos materiais para a detecção de pesticidas / Not available

Consolin Filho, Nelson 28 January 2003 (has links)
A fabricação de sensores à base de polímeros condutores tem despertado um enorme interesse científico e tecnológico devido à grande demanda por sensores para inúmeras aplicações. Neste sentido, esta tese foi dedicada ao estudo de polímeros para aplicação em sensores eletroquímicos para detecção de pesticidas. Foram realizados estudos de adsorção (cinética e equilíbrio), para verificar a interação entre os polímeros polianilinas Pani-1 e Pani-2 e lignina fórmica reticulada (LFRT) e os herbicidas (atrazina e imazaquin). A técnica utilizada para os estudos de adsorção, interação em meio aquoso e crescimento de filmes foi a espectroscopia ultravioleta visível (UV-Vis). A partir do estudo do equilíbrio de adsorção foram estudados dois Modelos de Isotermas (Langmuir e Freundlich). Na aplicação destes Modelos verificou-se uma boa interação entre os pesticidas e os polímeros (Pani-1, Pani-2 e LFRT), sendo que esta interação é maior para o imazaquin e pode ser explorada para a aplicação em sensores. O estudo da cinética de adsorção em pH próximo da água (p1+-,6,9), mostrou que o imazaquin teve uma maior adsorção com os polímeros Pani-1 e Pani-2. Para os sistemas cujos adsorventes foram as polianilinas, o pH influenciou significativamente a adsorção, sendo que o sistema que apresentou uma maior adsorção após o equilíbrio foi o imazaquin em Pani-1 e Pani-2 num pH igual a 2,5. Estudos de interação em meio aquoso entre um derivado da polianilina (poli(oetoxianilina)- POEA) e os herbicidas (imazaquin e atrazina) demonstraram que ocorre interação entre estes. Foi realizado um estudo de otimização dos parâmetros eletroquímicos por voltametria cíclica, no qual foram utilizados como eletrodos de trabalho o eletrodo de pasta de carbono (EPC) e o eletrodo de pasta de carbono modificado com Pani-2 (EPC-Pani-2) e como herbicida o imazaquin. Desenvolveu-se uma metodologia para a determinação do Limite de Detecção (LD), e observou-se que a adição do polímero Pani-2 na pasta de carbono aumenta a sensibilidade do eletrodo ao imazaquin. Foi também realizado um estudo do efeito de interferentes no eletrodo EPC-Pani-2. Neste caso, foram estudadas três amostras de águas, no qual se observou que o sistema que teve o menor limite de detecção foi a medida realizada em água MilliQ, seguida de água não tratada e água tratada, o que pode ser explicado pela interferência dos componentes químicos presentes na água tratada. Nos testes de recuperação realizados nestas amostras de águas, notou-se uma diminuição da recuperação com relação a água pura MilliQ das águas tratada e não tratada, mas mesmo assim obteve-se uma boa recuperação (acima de 86%). No estudo realizado em microeletrodos interdigitados, primeiramente acompanhando-se o crescimento dos filmes, pode-se constatar o crescimento do filme de Pani-2 em substrato de vidro a partir de uma concentração de 1 mM. Nos filmes de POEA e POEA/LS houve crescimento a partir de uma camada ou bicamada depositada. Nos estudos de detecção do imazaquin por impedância eletroquímica, os resultados mostraram que há uma saturação do imazaquin na superfície dos eletrodos quando utilizamos concentrações maiores que 10 mg/L do herbicida. O microeletrodo mais sensível na aplicação analítica deste estudo foi o composto de filme de uma bicamada de POEA/LS com um Limite de Detecção de 1,407 mg/L. Estes estudos demonstraram que polímeros condutores podem ser utilizados em sensores para detecção de pesticidas utilizando-se métodos eletroquímicos de voltametria cíclica ou de medidas de capacitância / Scientific and technological interest for manufacturing sensors based on conducting polymers has increased, due to its great demand for severa! applications. This thesis was aimed to study of polymers to produce electrochemical sensor for pesticides detection, more precisely the herbicide imazaquin. Adsorption studies (kinetics and equilibrium) were accomplished in order to study the interaction between the polymers Pani-1 and Pani-2 and reticulated formic lignin (RTFL) and the herbicides (atrazine and imazaquin). The technique used to monitor the absorption, aqueous media absorption and film growth studies was the visible ultraviolet spectroscopy (UVVis). From the adsorption equilibrium studies two isotherm models (Langmuir and Freundlich) were studied. The application of these models showed that there is a good interaction between the pesticides and the polymers (Pani-1, Pani-2 and RTFL). The best results on interaction studies were obtained for imazaquin which could be explored to polyrner sensors. The study of adsorption kinetics in pH =6.9 (water pH) showed that imazaquin had a greater adsorption with the polymers Pani-1 and Pani-2 . To the systems whose adsorbents were the two kind of polyaniline, pH influenced significantly in the adsorption. The system that presented the greatest post-equilibrium adsorption was imazaquin in Pani-1 and Pani-2 at a pH of 2.5. Studies of interaction in aqueous media between a polyaniline derivative (poly(o-etoxyaniline)-POEA) and the herbicides imazaquin and atrazine showed good interaction polymer-herbicide. An optimization study of the electrochemical parameters was carried out by cyclic voltammetry using a carbon paste electrode (CPE) and a Pani-2 CPE modified (CPE-Pani-2) as working electrodes and imazaquin as herbicide. An analytical procedure was developed In order to determine the detection limit (DL). R was observed that the addition of Pani-2 in the carbon paste increases the electrode sensibility to imazaquin. A study of interfering agents on the electrode CPE-Pani-2 was also performed. In this case, three samples of differently treated water were studied; the system with the smallest detection limit was that MilliQ treated water, followed by treated and untreated water systems. This behavior may be explained by the interference of the chemical constituents present in the treated water. The recuperation tests done with the water samples showed a decrease in the recuperation test for MilliQ treated water compared to treated and untreated water samples, even though a good recuperation was obtained (over 86%). On the study on interdigitated microelectrodes, first following the film growth, the Pani-2 film growth deposited onto a g!ass substrate was detected for concentrations equal or higher than 1mM. !n the POEA and POEA/LS films there was a growth from a deposited layer or bilayer. On the studies of detection of imazaquin by electrochemical impedance, the results showed the presence of imazaquin causes a saturation on the surface of the electrodes when concentrations higher than 10mg/L of herbicide were used. The most sensitive microelectrode to analytical application of this study was composed by one bilayer of POEA/LS with a detection limit of 1.407mg/L. These studies showed that conducting polymers can be used as sensors for detection of pesticides using electrochemical methods as cyclic voltammetry or capacitance measurements

Orlandi, Maxwell Adolpho 08 September 1992 (has links)
O problema de cortes irregulares consiste em determinar a melhor maneira de cortar placas retangulares para produzir peças irregulares. Cada peça deve ser produzida para atender a uma demanda pré-definida. A perda total de material deve ser minimizada. A estratégia de resolução consiste em agrupar peças irregulares em módulos retangulares e definir padrões de corte regulares. A partir de então, define-se um padrão de corte irregular. O modelo de geração de colunas de Gilmore e Gomory foi utilizado. / The irregular two-dimensional cutting problem consists In determining the best way of cutting large rectangles in order to provide irregular pieces. A previous defined demand of each piece has to be satisfied. The objective is to minimize the total waste. The solving strategy consists in gathering irregular pieces into a rectangular module and then define; regular cutting patterns After that, one defines a irregular cutting pattern using CAD tools. The Gilmory & Gomory\'s model of column generating was used.

Marar, João Fernando 09 October 1992 (has links)
Sinais podem ser amostrados, armazenados e reproduzidos por computadores digitais. Adicionalmente, sinais podem ser analisados de modo que formas comportadas de sua representação possam ser extraídas, economizando o espaço de memória necessário para o armazenamento. A transformada de Fourier tem sido tradicionalmente utilizada para este fim. Este trabalho trata da utilização da transformada Karhunen-Loeve como método alternativo de representação de tons musicais, possibilitando grande economia de recursos computacionais comparada com a transformada de Fourier. / Signals can be sampled, stored and played back by digital computers. Furthermore, signals can be analized in such a way that compressed forms of their representation can be extracted, reducing the amount of memory needed to store them. The Fourier transform have been traditionally used in this way. This dissertation deals with the use of the Karhunen-Loeve transform as an alternative method of representing a particular and dynamic signal, the musical tones, allowing bigger savings of computing resources, as compared to the Fourier transform.
