Competencia Digital

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar criticamente ao leitor de língua portuguesa a série de documentos sobre competências digitais denominados DigComp, elaborados pelo Joint Research Centre (JRC) da Comissão Europeia, além de outros relatórios relacionados. A metodologia compreendeu pesquisas na Internet, uma revisão sistemática de literatura e a leitura crítica dos documentos. Os resultados indicaram que esses documentos estão baseados em Comunicações da Comissão Europeia e Recomendações do Parlamento Europeu publicadas entre 2006 e 2018, que apontam as competências necessárias para a aprendizagem ao longo da vida, dentre as quais a competência digital, além de apresentarem os compromissos da União Europeia em relação a essa temática. A União Europeia elaborou então diferentes frameworks ou marcos: DigComp 1.0, DigComp 2.0 e DigComp 2.1, voltados para os cidadãos, além do DigComp into action, com exemplos e casos práticos de seu uso; DigCompEdu, DigCompOrg e OpenEdu, voltados à área da educação; e DigCompConsumers e EntreComp, voltados ao ambiente dos negócios, além do EntreComp into action, também com exemplos e casos práticos de seu uso. Este artigo apresenta, compara e discute esses documentos, analisando a dificuldade em se fragmentar e avaliar competências digitais. A pesquisa identificou também estudos de tendências gerais nessas áreas, que o artigo menciona, mas não discute, sobre temas como: MOOCs, makerspaces, learning analytics, pensamento computacional, blockchain e políticas para a integração e o uso inovador de tecnologias digitais na educação. O artigo conclui que esses frameworks constituem importantes modelos para a compreensão e o desenvolvimento de competências digitais, não havendo uma riqueza e série de documentos similares desenvolvidos no Brasil.

VUCA world (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity), according to experts of JRC (European Commission's Joint Research Centre), is now a special space that corrupts the integrity of science activity, limits thinking and vision of the situation by politicians. In fact, under such conditions, the only reliable resource for scientific organizations is a commercialization, and the payback is a condition of activity. These factors already pose a threat to global security. The mission orientation proposed by European Union experts is still seen as a rather weak alternative.

Nuclear energy is today the largest single source of carbon free and base-load electricity in Europe. While highlighting its important role in the overall energy mix, it is necessary to address sustainability, safety, and security concerns, in particular nuclear safety and nuclear waste management issues, which influence the public acceptance of nuclear energy. The present paper describes the Joint Research Centre activities in support to the EU nuclear safety policy. It describes the Joint Research Centre role in the EU institutional context, identifies the various customers to which the Joint Research Centre delivers its services, and provides some results of the Joint Research Centre scientific work inherent to nuclear safety.

Abstract The European Commission's Directorate General Joint Research Centre has organized several proficiency tests on the determination of acrylamide (AA) in food. This paper presents the results and outcome of a proficiency test that focused on the determination of AA in crispbread samples. One of the goals was the identification of the influence of different parameters such as analyte extraction or instrument calibration on the analytical results. A set of samples, containing 3 different crispbread samples as well as extracts of one crispbread sample and AA standard solutions, was shipped to each participant. A total of 42 European laboratories reported analytical results that were evaluated by applying internationally accepted protocols and procedures. The study found that, for each sample, the results of 4–8 laboratories were outside the range formed by the target value plus or minus the 2-fold of the target standard deviation; thus, they did not perform satisfactorily. In transferring this knowledge to the data of monitoring databases of AA in food, care must be taken that data are quality controlled, as it is likely that some of them may be biased.

Reported Data

A natural nickel sample was used at the GELINA (Geel Electron LINear Accelerator) neutron source of the European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Geel to measure the neutron inelastic cross sections. The GAINS (Gamma Array for Inelastic Neutron Scattering) spectrometer was employed to detect the emitted γ rays while a 235U fission chamber monitored the neutron flux. We report the preliminary production cross sections corresponding to the first transitions in 58,60Ni in comparison with previously reported data and with TALYS 1.9 calculations performed using the default input parameters.

Professor Ernest Hondros CMG FRS DSc Dr d'U FIM CEng was a renowned British metallurgist and materials scientist, an innovator, leader, inspirational encourager, raconteur and friend to many. At the National Physical Laboratory in south west London, Hondros pioneered the measurement of thermodynamic properties of interfaces in crystalline materials and established the importance of interfacial microchemistry in the mechanical strength of engineering materials. Following a period as Head of the Materials Applications Division at the National Physical Laboratory, Dr Hondros was appointed Director of the Petten Laboratory in the Netherlands, an establishment of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, and later was appointed Director of the Commission's Institute for Advanced Materials.
