Sabe-se que a educação é uma das circunstâncias necessárias para que haja transformação na vida e no ambiente das pessoas e com a educação superior, em expansão e crescimento acelerado no Brasil, vivencia-se um novo aspecto, o crescimento local e regional das cidades. Partindo destes pressupostos, este artigo procurou verifcar qual foi a expansão do Ensino Superior no Estado de Mato Grosso, analisando os dados da Universidade do Estado de Mato Grosso (Unemat) e de que forma a expansão proporcionou o desenvolvimento dos municípios. A pesquisa se caracteriza como uma pesquisa exploratória, de abordagem quantitativa, com a realização de um estudo de caso. Foram analisados dados de dois censos do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografa e Estatística (IBGE): 2000 e 2010 e constatou-se, com os dados coletados, que a Unemat aumentou o número de cursos e o número de vagas no decorrer da década, demonstrando indícios de contribuição no aumento do PIB e do IDHM dos municípios em que a universidade atua.Palavras-chave: Educação.

This study aims to describe and analyze impressions of parents on the affective impacts of Gymnastics classes on children from four to six years old, based on Vygotsky`s Historical-Cultural Theoryy and on Wallon´s Development Theory.These classes are part of the university extension in “Gymnastics”, from the Faculty of Physical Education of the State University of Campinas; based on Sport Pedagogy reference and planned with ludic strategias, such as make-believe games. In this case study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with the children parents, and analyzed on Content Analysis. The analysis categories were: Three Momentos Metodology as a factor that provides experiences; Relationship with teacher as a space of affection; Demonstrations about the Sport Pedagogy references: Historical-Cultural; Technical; Socio-educational. The results reveal that children perform movements learned in classes at other times and spaces, including situations that they teach colleagues and family members. About the historical and cultural ascpetcs, the stetements demonstrate that thework with “theoretical” themes with youg children is possible and how contents were learned and impacted them. Therefore, social pedagogical strategias were emphasized as a differential og this Project, which considers the learnes as the the focus of the process, interacting with social environment and co-constrution the knowledge.

Frontal Lobotomy

Neurosurgery for the treatment of psychological disorders has a checkered history in the United States. Prior to the advent of antipsychotic medications, individuals with severe mental illness were institutionalized and subjected to extreme therapies in an attempt to palliate their symptoms. Psychiatrist Walter Freeman first introduced psychosurgery, in the form of frontal lobotomy, as an intervention that could offer some hope to those patients in whom all other treatments had failed. Since that time, however, the use of psychosurgery in the United States has waxed and waned significantly, though literature describing its use is relatively sparse. In an effort to contribute to a better understanding of the evolution of psychosurgery, the authors describe the history of psychosurgery in the state of Iowa and particularly at the University of Iowa Department of Neurosurgery. An interesting aspect of psychosurgery at the University of Iowa is that these procedures have been nearly continuously active since Freeman introduced the lobotomy in the 1930s. Frontal lobotomies and transorbital leukotomies were performed by physicians in the state mental health institutions as well as by neurosurgeons at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics (formerly known as the State University of Iowa Hospital). Though the early technique of frontal lobotomy quickly fell out of favor, the use of neurosurgery to treat select cases of intractable mental illness persisted as a collaborative treatment effort between psychiatrists and neurosurgeons at Iowa. Frontal lobotomies gave way to more targeted lesions such as anterior cingulotomies and to neuromodulation through deep brain stimulation. As knowledge of brain circuits and the pathophysiology underlying mental illness continues to grow, surgical intervention for psychiatric pathologies is likely to persist as a viable treatment option for select patients at the University of Iowa and in the larger medical community.
