ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize the experiences of undergraduate students of the School of Nursing of the University of São Paulo (EEUSP) who participated in international mobility programs between January 2011 and July 2017. Method: Exploratory, descriptive study with quantitative approach. Of 68 reports, only 38 (56%) were considered valid and were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis. Data were categorized in general, institutional, academic and cultural aspects and cost of living. Results: The main destination was Portugal and the years with most participation were 2012 and 2013. The mean stay was six months and the students took a mean of three to four courses. The main funder was the university of origin. Conclusion: Academic activities were limited to theoretical and practical courses, with little insertion in research. There is a need to increase investment in learning other languages and to expand partnerships with larger centers of foreign education and research.

ABSTRACTFrom the point of view of literary theory and comparative literature, this article aims to analyze how it is configured the narrative of life of a patient of the General and Didactic Clinic of the University of São Paulo School of Medicine, in the context of a consultation with the resident who attends her, and how that narrative is reconfigured by the same resident, both in the conversation with her assistant and at the resumption of the consultation with the patient, in which diagnostic hypotheses, predictions and treatments will be transmitted. The analysis undertaken here is based mainly on the concepts of prefiguration, configuration and refiguration established by Paul Ricoeur in his book Time and Narrative (2010); narrator and narrative point of view, as in Arrigucci Jr. (1998) and Friedman (2002); and the cultural aspects of the comic genre, as in Aristotle (s/d), Darnton (1996), Bakhtin (1999) and Baudelaire (2002). In conclusion, this paper aims to propose some analytical and theoretical grounds for the concept of a “cleaved’ or “impure” narrator in the context of the relations between narrative and medicine.RESUMENEste artigo busca analisar, do ponto de vista da teoria literária e da literatura comparada, o modo como é configurada, por ela mesma, a narrativa de vida de uma paciente do Ambulatório Geral e Didático do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo num contexto de consulta com a médica residente que a atende, e de que modo essa narrativa é reconfigurada pela mesma residente, tanto na conversa com seu assistente quanto na retomada da consulta com a paciente, na qual hipóteses diagnósticas, prognósticos e tratamento lhe serão transmitidos. A análise empreendida aqui funda-se essencialmente nos conceitos de prefiguração, configuração e refiguração, tal como estabelecidos por Paul Ricoeur em sua obra Tempo e narrativa (2010); narrador e ponto de vista narrativo, tal como em Arrigucci Jr. (1998) e Friedman (2002); e do riso em suas articulações culturais, tal como em Aristóteles (s/d), Darnton (1996), Bakhtin (1999) e Baudelaire (2002). Ao final, este trabalho visa a propor bases analíticas e teóricas para a definição do conceito de narrador “clivado” ou “impuro”, no contexto das relações entre narrativa e medicina.

ABSTRACT Objective: to characterize nurses graduated from the School of Nursing of the University of São Paulo, from 2006 to 2012; verify their entry, facilitating factors and difficulties of these graduates in the labor market and to consider their skills and competences in the world of work. Method: an exploratory, descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Results: out of 505 graduates, 172 (34.1%) participated in the research. Entry into the labor market was mainly via public hospital institutions, in the SE of Brazil, in the caregiving sectors. The greater part remained from one to two years in their first job. Most agreed that they were prepared to meet the health needs of the population. Furthermore, they had been encouraged to seek systematic and continuous improvement in a critical, reflexive and creative way, while combining technical-scientific knowledge and personal skills. Conclusion: the results show that the University of São Paulo has been preparing nurses for work in the labor market, in accordance with the provisions of the National Curricular Guidelines.

OBJECTIVE: to identify the direct labor (DL) costs to put in practice a decision support system (DSS) in nursing at the University Hospital of the University of São Paulo (HU-USP). METHOD: the development of the DSS was mapped in four sub-processes: Conception, Elaboration, Construction and Transition. To calculate the DL, the baseline salary per professional category was added to the five-year additional remuneration, representation fees and social charges, and then divided by the number of hours contracted, resulting in the hour wage/professional, which was multiplied by the time spend on each activity in the sub-processes. RESULTS: the DL cost corresponded to R$ 752,618.56 (100%), R$ 26,000.00 (3.45%) of which were funded by a funding agency, while R$ 726,618.56 (96,55%) came from Hospital and University resources. CONCLUSION: considering the total DL cost, 72.1% related to staff wages for the informatics consulting company and 27.9% to the DL of professionals at the HU and the School of Nursing.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the rate of drug use prevalence and to investigate opinions regarding such use among undergraduate students at the University of São Paulo - São Paulo campus in 1996 and again in 2001. METHODS: Both studies followed the same procedures of sampling and data collection. A random sample of undergraduate students, divided into the areas Humanities, Exact Sciences and Biologic Sciences, responded to an anonymous and self-report survey regarding the use of licit and illicit drugs within the last 30 days, within the last 12 months and over the lifetime of the subject. The two surveys were compared through the construction of (95%) confidence intervals for the prevalence differences for each substance by area and by total number of students. The Wald test for homogeneity was applied in order to compare the prevalences. RESULTS: High approval of regularly trying and using cocaine, crack, amphetamines and inhalants was observed. The drugs that showed statistic significant increasing were:lifetime use: alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, inhalants, hallucinogens, amphetamines, anticholines, barbiturics and any illicit drug;last-12-month use: marijuana, inhalants, amphetamines, hallucinogens and any illicit drug;last-30-day use: marijuana, inhalants, amphetamines and any illicit drug. DISCUSSON: The observed difference in the use of some drugs between the two surveys appears to be a consequence of the higher rates of favorable opinions regarding trying and regularly using some psychoactive substances, a finding that mirrors global trends in drug use.

This study aimed to get to know the perceptions of undergraduate students from the University of São Paulo College of Nursing about physical exercise as an instrument to maintain health and well being. Data were collected through the application of a questionnaire in class, involving 122 undergraduate students. In this group, 52.23% believed that physical exercise should only be recommended to people with health problems. Only 8% thought that exercise can prevent diseases, and only 6.61% uses protection equipment. Therefore, we concluded that nursing students need to be better prepared to be able to intervene correctly as professionals.

A inclusão representa um desafio em todas as modalidades de ensino, desde a Educação Infantil até o Ensino Superior. Torna-se, desse modo, fundamental entender as diferenças e as especificidades das pessoas com deficiência para implantação de modelos educativos inclusivos em cada modalidade de ensino. Este artigo teve como objetivo identificar e analisar, a partir do ponto de vista dos estudantes com deficiência, os fatores que dificultam a permanência nas instituições de ensino superior e, eventualmente, promovem a evasão nesta modalidade de ensino. O estudo proposto foi de natureza qualitativa, em recorte transversal. A pesquisa foi realizada em duas universidades localizadas numa cidade de médio porte do interior do estado de São Paulo, sendo uma pública e outra privada. Após a definição dos critérios para recrutamento dos participantes, sete universitários com deficiência aceitaram participar voluntariamente da pesquisa. Os instrumentos utilizados foram entrevistas semiestruturadas e a entrevista reflexiva, sendo que os dados obtidos foram analisados por meio da análise de conteúdo. Os resultados indicaram que diversas práticas no interior da universidade podem estar associadas à exclusão, variando de questões objetivas, como a ausência de recursos adaptados e barreiras arquitetônicas, a aspectos relacionais, como a presença de preconceito e resignação dos próprios estudantes com deficiência. Desse modo, apesar do notório aumento de estudantes com deficiência no ensino superior, este estudo revelou que ainda existem necessidades de mudanças significativas na cultura institucional para que a inclusão seja, de fato, uma realidade nas universidades. Palavras-chave: Estudantes com Deficiência. Ensino Superior. Inclusão. Permanência. AbstractInclusion represents a challenge in all levels of teaching, from early childhood to higher education systems. Based on that, it is essential to understand the differences and specificities of people with disabilities for the implementation of inclusive educational models in each teaching modality. This article aimed to evaluate, from the point of view of undergraduate students with disabilities, the challenges they face to stay in the university and the factor that may be associated to drop off the institution. Using a qualitative approach, the research was conducted within two universities located in a medium-sized city in São Paulo state. After defining the criteria for recruiting the participants, 7 undergraduate students with disabilities voluntarily accepted to participate in the research. The instruments used were semi-structured interviews and the reflective interviews, and the data gathered from the fieldwork were analyzed through content analysis. Findings pointed out that several practices within the university may be associated with exclusion, ranging from objective issues, such as the absence of adapted resources and architectural barriers, as well as negative relationships which expose them to prejudice. Thus, despite the notorious increase of undergraduate students with disabilities in higher education in Brazil, this study revealed that there are a range of necessary changes to become the universities truly inclusive. Keywords: Students with disabilities; Higher education; Inclusion; Exclusion.

AbstractPurposeThis paper presents the ARQUIGRAFIA project, an open, public and nonprofit, continuous growth web collaborative environment dedicated to Brazilian architectural photographic images.Design/methodology/approachThe ARQUIGRAFIA project promotes the active and collaborative participation among its institutional users (GLAMs, NGOs, laboratories and research groups) and private users (students, professionals, professors, researchers), both can create an account and share their digitized iconographic collections in the same Web environment by uploading their files, indexing, georeferencing and assigning a Creative Commons license.FindingsThe development of users interactions by means of semantic differentials impressions recording on visible plastic-spatial aspects of the architectures in synthetic infographics, as well as by the retrieval of images through an advanced system search based on those impressions parameters. By gamification means, the system often invites users to review images’ in order to improve images’ data accuracy. The pilot project named Open Air Museum that allows users to add audio descriptions to images in situ. An interface for users’ digital curatorship will be soon available.Research limitationsThe ARQUIGRAFIA’s multidisciplinary team gathering professors-researchers, graduate and undergraduate students from the Architecture and Urbanism, Design, Information Science, Computer Science faculties of the University of São Paulo, demands continuous financial resources for grants, for contracting third party services, for the participation in scientific events in Brazil and abroad, and for equipment. Since 2016, significant budget cuts in the University of São Paulo own research funds and in Brazilian federal scientific agencies can compromise the continuity of this project.Practical implicationsThe open source template called +GRAFIA that can freely help other areas of knowledge to build their own visual Web collaborative environments.Originality/valueThe collaborative nature of the ARQUIGRAFIA distinguishes it from institutional image databases on the internet, precisely because it involves a heterogeneous network of collaborators.

International student mobility (ISM) is an important educational means to promote the international (job market) potential of university students. Beyond that, it constitutes a context of personality development in young adulthood. With the present research, we tried to integrate the perspectives of applied and personality research in addressing the following questions. First, we scrutinized the robustness of ISM effects on personality development as we controlled for effects of sociodemographic characteristics and implemented a waiting group design ( N = 3070). Second, we explored ISM anticipation effects as well as the moderation of ISM effects by previous international mobility experiences. Finally, in view of the public discourse on the benefits of “Erasmus crowds”, we assessed the roles of international and host relationships with regard to the personality development of sojourners. The results largely corroborated the robustness of ISM effects on personality development. No ISM anticipation effects occurred, and effects of current ISM engagement were largely unaffected by previous international mobility experiences. Finally, international contact experiences were associated with personality development above and beyond effects of host country contacts. Implications for the understanding of personality development and potential inferences for the organization and improvement of ISM programs are discussed.
