Resumo: Partindo da premissa de que os alunos aprendem melhor quando o desenvolvimento científico e tecnológico é historicizado, realizou-se um projeto de Ensino de Química com estudantes do 1º período do Ensino Médio Integrado ao Curso Técnico de Química tendo armas químicas como tema sociocientífico. O projeto utilizou o júri simulado como principal estratégia de ensino e no caso, julgaram a responsabilidade da Alemanha quanto à produção e uso de armas químicas durante a II Guerra Mundial. A avaliação do projeto foi feita de modo processual através da coleta e sistematização de dados obtidos ao longo das aulas. A Análise de Conteúdo dos argumentos utilizados pelos estudantes evidencia que a estratégia do júri simulado contribuiu para que eles construíssem um conhecimento químico crítico, compreendendo que o desenvolvimento científico e tecnológico é resultado de uma atividade essencialmente humana, e que, portanto, se dá sob interferência política e econômica.Palavras-chave: Armas Químicas; Aspectos históricos; Júri Simulado. Chemical weapons and scientific development: the use of the simulated jury as a didactic strategy in the teaching of chemistryAbstract: Starting from the premise that students learn better when scientific and technological development is historicized, a Chemistry teaching project was carried out with students from the 1st period of High School Integrated with the Technical Course in Chemistry having chemical weapons as a social scientific theme. The project used the simulated jury as the main teaching strategy. In this case, they judged Germany's responsibility for the production and use of chemical weapons during the II World War. The evaluation of the project, carried out in a procedural way through the collection and systematization of the data obtained during the classes. The Content Analysis of the arguments used by the students shows that the strategy of the simulated jury contributed to them building a critical chemical knowledge, understanding that the scientific and technological development is the result of an essentially human activity, which therefore takes place under political and economical interference.Keywords: Chemical Weapons; Historical aspects; Simulated Jury.

Humanity, culture, societal development and language issues are mutually reinforcing much as they are intricately interwoven in a non-ceasing dynamic interrelationships within the matrix defined by language standardization or development, acquisition and use that mostly take up central place as unifying and propelling forces in language discourse. Within the confines of globalization which is neither homogenization nor convergence; but the beginning of drawing on the strength of indigenous capabilities to create knowledge ecology that would enliven socio-economic and scientific development of the world in far reaching interconnectivities and relationships across every clime, issues pertaining to language development, acquisition and use become imperative. It is against this background that this paper examines the development/standardization, acquisition and use of Esan language as one of several Nigerian indigenous languages to promote scientific and technological development through knowledge creation, preservation and dissemination. The obsession of using western model and epistemological outlook to achieve appropriate scientific and technological development to the utter neglect of home grown and culturally distilled efforts were also examined. In the light of the dare consequences and the harsh conditions globalization imposes on developing nations, this paper highlights standardization and use of indigenous languages in chatting appropriate trajectory for effectual developmental efforts in fast shrinking contemporary world.

Fuels are materials that possess the ability to release energy when there is change in the chemical structure, and are part of everyone's life in society, including students of basic education. This work aims to analyze the potential of teaching strategy Jury Simulated in the construction of chemical knowledge on fuels approach, in perspective of development conceptual, procedural and attitudinal. The survey was conducted in a municipal public school in the city of Carnaíba, countryside of Pernambuco, in Primary Education II, using as main pivot axis of a fictional case study about the closing of a gas station. To obtain the data, was use as research tools: notes the observation of the field during the course of the jury and interviews with students. After completion of the jury, students demonstrated arguments and more profound chemical knowledge on the subject, and prove motivated and interested throughout the process. It was concluded that the simulated jury performed in a powerful didactic and methodological strategy, effective and interesting for addressing chemical knowledge related to the daily lives of students, in case the fuels, issue not yet worked in recreational activities in chemistry teaching.

Kemično orožje je svoj največji razmah doživelo med prvo svetovno vojno, ko so ga uporabljale sile obeh v vojno vpletenih strani, čeprav je bila s haaškimi deklaracijami uporaba strupov v bojne namene prepovedana že pred vojno. Med prvo svetovno vojno je bilo razvitih in uporabljenih več vrst kemičnega orožja, pri čemer so največjo uporabnost ter uničevalno moč pokazali klor, fosgen in iperit. Odziv na uporabo smrtonosnega tihega orožja je bil razvoj zaščitnih mask, pri čemer pa mnoge niso zadoščale standardom in so se v kriznih trenutkih pokazale kot neučinkovite. Uporaba kemičnega orožja je v prvi svetovni vojni povzročila veliko žrtev, vendar ni odločilno vplivala na končni izid vojne. Zaradi izjemne smrtonosnosti in uničujočih fizioloških ter psiholoških posledic, ki jih je povzročilo kemično orožje v času tako imenovane Velike vojne, so si mednarodne sile po letu 1918 prizadevale zagotoviti, da se ta tihi ubijalec ne bi več uporabljal v bojne namene. To je bil tudi eden izmed vzrokov, zakaj ni prišlo do večjega razmaha uporabe kemičnega orožja po tem letu. Prizadevanja mednarodne skupnosti po izkoreninjenju bojnih strupov pa niso preprečila razvoja znanosti, ki je v 20. stoletju prinesel odkritja novih strupenih orožij, ki jih v prvi svetovni vojni še niso poznali. Chemical weapons saw their largest growth during World War I, when it was used by the forces of both involved parties despite the fact that the use of casualty agents had been banned by Hague declarations even before the war. Several types of chemical weapons were used and developed during World War I with chloride, phosgene and mustard gas proving to be most useful and destructive. As a response to the use of this lethal silent weapon protection masks were developed. However, many of them did not meet the standards and proved to be ineffective during crisis. The use of chemical weapons in World War I caused numerous casualties, but did not decisively impact the final outcome of the war. Due to the extremely lethal nature and devastating physiological and psychological consequences caused by chemical weapons during the Great War, international forces after 1918 made every effort to never use this silent murderer in combat again. This was also one of the reasons why chemical weapons did not see too large of a development after this period. However, international efforts to root out casualty agents did not prevent the scientific development, which in the 20th century brought the discovery of new toxic weapons which had not been known during World War I.

Resumo: No modelo de desenvolvimento científico nacional, fração expressiva dos projetos de pesquisa são fomentados por chamadas públicas, que estabelecem os critérios para a seleção das propostas de maior relevância e de mérito científico. A Chamada Pública Universal do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) apoiou, no período de 2005 a 2016, diferentes instituições, precisamente 569, distribuídas em todo o território nacional. Dessas instituições, 52% eram Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) e 40% delas possuíam Programas de Pós-Graduação (PPG). Grande parte dos recursos apoiados, cerca de 86%, foram para as grandes áreas tradicionais do conhecimento e para a compra de bens e equipamentos. A produção do conhecimento dessas instituições demonstrou sensibilidade aos grandes temas nacionais, como no caso do surto do zika vírus, de 2015, ocasião em que foram submetidos 179 trabalhos sobre o tema. Contudo, o modelo de fomento necessita ser aperfeiçoado e adequar-se às demandas dos núcleos produtores do conhecimento e da sociedade.Palavras-chaves: Fomento. Programa de Pós-Graduação.

The Universal Public Call of the National Council of Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) supported, between 2005 and 2016, different institutions, precisely 569, distributed throughout the national territory. Of these institutions, 52% were Higher Education Institutions (HEI) and 40% of them had Postgraduate Programs (PPG). A large part of the resources supported, about 86%, went to the large traditional areas of knowledge and to the purchase of goods and equipment. The knowledge production of these institutions showed sensitivity to the major national issues, as in the case of the zika virus outbreak of 2015, when 179 papers were submitted on the subject. However, the model of development needs to be improved and adapted to the demands of the knowledge-producing nuclei and society.Keywords: Fostering. Graduate program. Scientific research promotion.
