This work describes the proposal of a collaborative inter-organizational network involving different actors operating as a group. The aim was to reuse the waste generated by the custom-made furniture sector, which is very relevant in Brazil. The presented scenario is the city of Uberlandia/MG/Brazil, a medium-sized city, which produces about 30.000m3/year of furniture production waste. The proposed collaborative network involves a furniture micro-enterprise, a primary public school, and a federal University, with the coordination of the last one, linked by design concepts. The theoretical references are based on the building of inter-organizational collaborative networks, Strategic Design, and Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability. The research methodology was based on an action-research process, and the methods were divided into a literature review, case studies, data collection and the development of new and small products. The obtained results are related to the value perception of collaboration among actors and the importance of continuous social innovation practices but also of technological ones. This confirms the feasibility of absorption of new practices into the daily operations both in the microenterprise and the public school as well within the university, as a way of increasing the positive impacts coming from these initiatives and a chance of scaling up the project.

This paper describes a resource exchange program between two human service organizations: a public school board and a university. This case study illustrates the utility of the concept of resource exchange as a response to pressures for the effective management of limited human resources. With an emphasis on mutual goals, needs, and strengths, the resource exchange program expanded resources available to both organizations. For the public school board, new services in the form of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention programs were developed. For the university, research and training opportunities were created. Finally, the fragmentation between and within the organizations was reduced in correspondence with their increased mutual interdependence.

Abstract Despite small victories for black South Carolinians in desegregating Clemson College and the University of South Carolina in 1963, federal court cases dealing with public education in the mid- to late 1960s reveal that South Carolina officials were willing to go to great lengths to preserve segregation. 1963 as a turning point on South Carolina’s desegregation history should be reconsidered. The state had no lack of white politicians, bureaucrats, and parents who continued to appeal to the courts to undermine the transformative intent of Brown v. Board. Despite some minor steps toward desegregation—small steps that whites were willing to allow as long as they helped to forestall any real integration—white South Carolinians were able, through legal delay and obfuscation, to subvert the promise of “integration with dignity.” Ultimately, policy-related efforts failed and by the early 1970s, desegregation had become a reality. However, personal defiance successfully thwarted integration, leading some white parents to permanently quit the public school system.

O trabalho tem como objetivo relatar a experiência vivenciada no espaço escolar, prática proporcionada pela disciplina de Estágio Supervisionado II, apresentando como resultados as principais atividades realizadas de observações, de regências e de intervenções em sala de aula. Entende-se que acompanhar a disciplina de História, no sistema público de ensino, é a forma pela qual a Universidade dialoga com o ensino da escola pública e proporciona mecanismos de preparação aos futuros professores. Através desse contato com a escola, que recebe os acadêmicos nas suas práticas de estudo, pesquisa e extensão, e de formação docente na área de História, busca-se também incentivar a promoção de metodologias experimentadas, a serem inseridas no ensino em sala de aula; como resultado deste processo de estágio é apresentado aqui a metodologia de um Quiz Histórico usado em sala de aula.Palavras-Chave: Relato de Estágio Supervisionado II; Sala de Aula; Ensino de História; Metodologia de Ensino. AbstractThis paper aims to report the experience in the school space, which was the supervised internship discipline II, presenting, as results, the main activities, observations and interventions performed in the classroom. It is understood that accompanying the discipline of History in the public school system is the way in which the University not only dialogues with the public school teaching, but also provides the mechanisms for the preparation of future teachers through contact with the school. The public school receives academics from the University for the practice of study, research and teacher education in the area of history, and encourages the promotion of methodologies to be inserted in classroom teaching. As a result of this internship process, we present here the methodology of a Historical Quiz carried out in class.Keywords: Supervised Internship Report II; Classroom; History Teaching; Teaching Methodology.

This text reflects on questions arising from the displacements associated with a philosophical project entitled Can philosophy be incorporated in Caxias? The public school bets on thinking, which is carried out with children from a public school located on a periphery in Brazil. This is a university extension project implemented by State University of Rio de Janeiro [UERJ in its Portuguese acronym]. It is coordinated by the Philosophy and Children Studies Group from the master’s program in Education at UERJ and it is developed in Municipal School Joaquim da Silva Peçanha in the municipality of Duque de Caxias in Rio de Janeiro; my workplace. We will try to make a brief foray into living this enigmatic exercise in a territory where the intention is to think about philosophy outside the university walls; a peripheral place where philosophy seems to have always been missing. However, when present, it affirms students’ and teachers’ strong, unique, and different voices as well as their thoughts on children in a Brazilian public school.

In this episode, we talk about Music Research, and how it is to practice open research within this field. Our guest is Alexander Jensenius, Associate Professor at the Department of Musicology - Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Rhythm, Time and Motion (IMV) at the University of Oslo. He is also behind MusicLAb, an event-based project where data is collected, during a musical performance, and analyzed on the fly. The aim of MusicLab is to explore new methods for conducting research, research communication, and education. Rather than keeping the entire research process closed, MusicLab wants to share the data with the public, and show how it can be analyzed. The host of this episode is Erik Lieungh. This episode was first published 27 December 2019.

Extension Master Gardener (EMG) volunteers are central to expanding the outreach and engagement of extension staff. A workshop format was used at the Annual Conference of the American Society for Horticultural Science on 31 July 2012 in Miami, FL to identify successful management techniques and projects that expand EMG volunteer outreach, leading to increased extension effectiveness. One program leader described how EMGs manage a farmer’s market that has been thriving for more than 30 years, generating income for the EMG program as well as the county extension office. Another program leader described a beneficial partnership between EMGs and the university in which EMGs grow plants for demonstration gardens and classroom use, facilitating learning for university students, EMGs, and the public. EMGs in another program have assumed much of the management role of the university orchard, using it for teaching and demonstrations. The final discussion focused on extension programs that used volunteers to assist in conducting research to expand extension’s capabilities, and also increasing EMGs’ understanding of the research process. All projects emphasized the need for extension agents to empower volunteers to take on leadership and decision-making roles as well as the value of EMGs to extension.
