Crítica Da Condição Docente, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha
Paulo Ferreira da Cunha
O Docente que parar para pensar na sua condição pode seriamente ficar deprimido e concluir que é um falhado. Embora seja um profissional altissimamente preparado e abnegadíssimo é por quase todos desconsiderado, e cada vez mais privado de direitos, e condições mínimas de trabalho. Que fazer?
Gender-Twisting And Bros Talking, 2013 Rhode Island College
Gender-Twisting And Bros Talking, Odile Mattiauda
Master's Theses, Dissertations, Graduate Research and Major Papers Overview
In American Schools, students are rarely offered educational experiences about gender and sexuality. Programs that do address sexuality are rarely based on moral beliefs and democratic values of tolerance and inclusivity. Sexuality education is predominantly taught by health teachers, rather than human sexuality educators, and their focus is on facts, statistics, and controversial issues such as the prevention of teenage pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS. This limited perspective on sexuality neglects the important role of gender identity and sexual orientation (Donovan, 1989; Haffner & De Mauro, 1991; Nelson Trudell, 1993)
Using teacher-researcher-participant-observer qualitative methodology, I examined the discourse …

National Cave And Karst Museum, 2013 National Cave and Karst Research Institute
National Cave And Karst Museum, Sandra Dianne Joop
National Cave and Karst Management Symposium 2013
Caves are natural museums housing ancient relics, unusual life forms, and amazing discoveries- wrapped in a shell of geologic history. Karst landscapes are spectacular, their aquifers provide hundreds of millions of people worldwide with drinking water, yet few have ever heard the word. The importance and fragility of these resources make them both exciting and challenging to interpret.
An exhibition focusing on cave and karst resources can effectively communicate the scientific, environmental and stewardship messages to non-technical audiences. As a world leader in understanding caves and karst, and the effect of their resources on our health, economy, and future, NCKRI …
