A alfabetização cartográfica é fundamental para o ensino de Geografia, uma vez que, para ler o espaço, o estudante necessita interpretar mapas, imagens e outras representações geográficas. Nos últimos anos, foram desenvolvidos muitos materiais didáticos envolvendo atividades lúdicas que despertam a curiosidade e o interesse dos alunos. Pensando na Cartografia Escolar, os Atlas Eletrônicos surgem com uma abordagem inovadora e maior interação entre os conteúdos trabalhados e a realidade local. O aluno é instigado a realizar uma análise crítica do seu espaço vivido, ora construindo-o, ora desconstruindo-o, através da observação dos elementos socioambientais, fazendo com que no aluno seja despertado maior interesse pelo estudo do espaço geográfico. Nesta perspectiva, teve-se o objetivo de abordar a importância do estudo do espaço local na perspectiva da cartografia escolar a partir da elaboração de um Atlas Eletrônico e Socioeconômico. Para isso, realizou-se um estudo de caso no município de Restinga Sêca, RS. Metodologicamente, considerou-se como unidade de análise espacial o município constituído por seus setores censitários. O Atlas possui uma interação parcial com o usuário, possibilitando a manipulação de um conjunto de mapas com temas predefinidos, e é composto por recursos de multimídia, com textos, imagens e animações. Desta forma, verificou-se maior interatividade no ensino da Geografia, articulando o conteúdo proposto com o espaço vivido pelo aluno. Palavras-chave Cartografia Escolar, Atlas Eletrônico, Ensino de Geografia   Municipal electronic atlas as a didactic alternative for school cartography Abstract Cartographic literacy is fundamental for the teaching of geography, since to read the space the student needs to interpret maps, images and other geographical representations. In recent years, many teaching materials have been developed involving recreational activities that arouse students' curiosity and interest. Thinking about School Cartography, Electronic Atlas come up with an innovative approach and greater interaction between the contents worked and the local reality. The student is encouraged to perform a critical analysis of his lived space, sometimes building it, sometimes deconstructing it through the observation of socioenvironmental elements, making the student arouse greater interest in the study of geographical space. In this perspective, the objective was to address the importance of studying the local space in the perspective of school cartography from the elaboration of an Electronic and Socioeconomic Atlas, for which a case study was carried out in the municipality of Restinga Sêca, RS. Methodologically, the municipality constituted by its census sectors was considered as a unit of spatial analysis. The Atlas has a partial interaction with the user, allowing the manipulation of a set of maps with predefined themes, and is supported by multimedia resources with texts, images and animations. Thus, there was greater interactivity in the teaching of Geography, articulating the proposed content with the space experienced by the student.

Scholars and practitioners have increasingly recognized the role of culturally responsive school leadership (CRSL). However, few studies have applied recent comprehensive CRSL theoretical frameworks. This in-depth case study explores how a school leader understands and shapes a school culture to be increasingly culturally responsive to students. Utilizing recent conceptualizations of CRSL as a lens, two major findings were developed. First, the principal’s understanding of what it means to be a culturally responsive leader is centered on the student experience: meeting basic needs, seeking “vertical” engagement, and transforming student world views. Second, to meet those student needs the principal practiced differentiated instructional leadership according to individual teacher needs and oriented to fostering a culturally responsive school culture. We suggest future research carefully examine (1) the interplay of beliefs, dispositions, and values in CRSL play, and (2) how CRSL (where it exists) manifests as an organizational.

Abstract: In Brazil, the LDB - Law of Guidelines and Bases nº. 9394(Brazil, 1996) and the PCN - National Curricular Parameters, determines that the Geography discipline is recognized as autonomous and should not be understood as a complement to other disciplines. In this way, the improvement in Geography teaching passes through cartographic literacy. The focus is on offering the student the capacity to carry out the appropriation, analysis, reflection and criticism on geographical space. In this way, this paper presents a resource that consisted of the development of the application called MapVoice. The purpose of the software is to enable Blind or visually impaired students, from basic education, in the learning of Cartography in Geography classes. MapVoice provides the understanding and interpretation of physical environments transformed into thematic maps based on data from the 2010 Brazilian Demographic Census executed by IBGE. The software used sound and image resources developed for Windows environment. The research concludes that it is necessary to prepare the infrastructure of the schools for the reception of these students, but mainly the continuing training of teachers and teaching assistants. Mapvoice was tested at the Institute of the Blind for validation, achieving a satisfactory result and making enthusiasm for the development of new researches.

<p>The act of displaying artwork and art objects in academic libraries has been called both a “natural idea and common practice” (Cirasella and Deutsch, 2012, p. 2), but this position lacks a considered and critical analysis. The motivation for displaying artwork in academic libraries and an evaluation of its impact on the library environment, as perceived by librarians, similarly lacks meaningful examination. This absence of previous inquiry provides a major stimulus for this research project, which uses a case study approach to examine and explore the ‘natural’ preoccupation for displaying artwork in academic libraries, and additionally considers such environments as public art spaces.</p>

En este artículo argumento la necesidad de repensar el espacio vivido. Propongo complejizar el análisis, consensado teóricamente, del espacio local, integrando el enfoque del espacio reticular. Busco incluir el margen de espacialidad que los grupos sociales construyen fuera de sus lugares cotidianos para explicar las representaciones sociales del espacio vivido, producto de las posibilidades de movilidad social hacia otros lugares.   LIVED SPACED: FROM LOCAL TO RETICULAR SPACE. NOTES ON THE SOCIAL REPRESENTATION OF LIVED SPACE WITHIN GLOBALIZATIONABSTRACTIn this article, I defend the need to rethink lived space. I propose increasing the complexity of the analysis of local space, based on theoretical consensus, by integrating a reticular approach to space. I seek to include the margin of spatiality that social groups construct outside their every day places in order to thus explain the social representations of lived space resulting from the possibilities of social mobility toward other places.

The Global Financial Crisis

Abstract While the legitimacy of the concept of the financial cycle (as distinct from the business cycle) in research and economic policy after the experience of the global financial crisis raises no concerns, the methodology for its application has become a subject of discussion. The purpose of this article is to indicate which research methods dominate in identifying a financial cycle and which methodological traps accompany them. The low level of critical perspective on the methods used to identify cycles often results in conclusions that have no economic justification and may result in erroneous decisions in economic policy and central bank practice. The case study carried out in the article confirms that the key elements in identifying a financial cycle are part of a long-term series covering at least two lengths of the financial cycle. In addition, because the results may be sensitive to the type of filter used, it is important not to rely on a single variable but rather to build indexes that take into account a number of them (including those obtained using filtration methods).
