Item Análise da comunicação no setor operacional usando equações estruturais: uma ferramenta de apoio ao gerenciamento da informação(UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DA BAHIA - UFBA, 2021-06-15) Drigo, Edmara dos Santos; Rodríguez, Jorge Laureano Moya; http://orcid.org/0000-0003-0541-0191; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5576711447768585; Ávila Filho, Salvador; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5006-1501; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8080668192694401; Souza, Marcelo Embiruçu de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8281601894113525; Rodríguez; Rodriguez, Carlos Manuel Taboada; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2328-378X; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5905893327298080; Leite, Jandecy Cabral; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1337-3549; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7279183940171317; Lima, Orlem Pinheiro de; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1007-0734; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8148029403735260; Fontes, Cristiano Hora de Oliveira; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8020-6815; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8533422209857268The absence of actions to manage information in the operational sphere (on the shop floor) affects the communication quality in this sector. Communication problems, in turn, can negatively impact operational security and organizational culture. Thus, this study proposed a model to analyze communication in the operational sector using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. A mathematical model was presented, consisting of 1 exogenous latent variable, knowledge management, and 4 endogenous variables: (i) oral communication; (ii) written communication; (iii) Man interaction with information and communication technologies (ICTs); and (iv) the operational communication. The case study was carried out in a land-based oil production region in the Northeast of Brazil where data were collected through a structured questionnaire with a Likert scale response. After analysis using the SEM, and using the same database, a supplementary study was carried out based on the development of a neuro- fuzzy model to assess information management in the operational sector. The SEM confirmed 6 of the 9 hypotheses proposed in the theoretical model. The results obtained showed that operational communication is directly influenced by knowledge management and by man interaction with ICTs. Written communication and oral communication had a direct influence on man interaction with ICTs and had an indirect influence on operational communication, thus, communication on the shop floor occurs predominantly through technologies. Knowledge management had a direct influence on the 4 endogenous variables, with strong explanatory and predictive relevance effects. The result of the neuro-fuzzy model showed that information management on the shop floor improves as actions are taken to acquire, store and distribute information about the operational routine. The model presented relevant contributions to the refinement of theory and practical contributions to support information management on the shop floor.Item Análise do discurso do operador e seu instrumento de comunicação entre turnos como ferramenta para o sistema de gestão(INSTITUTO FEDERAL DE ALAGOAS - Ifal, 2016-06-06) Drigo, Edmara dos Santos; Oliveira, Cristiano Lessa de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1436093029977246; Ávila Filho, Salvador; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5006-1501; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8080668192694401; Marques, Sheyla Karolina Justino; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7554-2275; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3917387578549073; Costa, Israel Crescencio da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7663274879776157; Esquerre, Karla Patricia Santos Oliveira Rodríguez; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8799-7365; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1956096628005272; Fleming, Paulo Victor; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1313976268089270Communication in organizations is still a difficult obstacle to be transposed. Effective instruments for transmission of information and the advent of technologies still need to rely on motivational and highly subjective factors that will make a man in his job routine report abnormalities or shut. Considering the operator discourse as a valuable tool for abnormalities display operational plan and support for decision-making in the management field, this dissertation aimed to analyze the communication between operators and shifts in a Water Treatment Plant (WTP) in the Northeast of Brazil. Problems in the information flow can result in operational failures in this case represent a risk to public health. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of records of operators and their communication tool show weaknesses in the shift book format used in WTP in question. The analysis of the text written by the operators based on analytical categories of Critical Discourse Analysis suggests the existence of conflicts that affect the organizational climate. We proposed a model instrument for communication in turn in checklist format to replace the typical procedure in narrative style. Although the focus of this work is the written speech, the operator’s speech in all its forms, can contribute significantly to the management system, but this management style should consider issues relating to human reliability and be willing to make procedure and structural changes.Item A cultura da prática tradicional das marcenarias de Palmeira dos Índios e sua influência na segurança do trabalho((CENTRO UNIVERSITÁRIO DE MACEIÓ – UNIMA | Afya , 2023-09-17) Cavalcante, Jesimiel Pinheiro; Pereira, Jesana Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2329848572181989; Mendes Junior, Walcler de Lima; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6938727316741941; Junkes, Janaína Accordi; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2971-9855; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2329848572181989; Pereira, Jesana Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2329848572181989; Marques, Verônica Teixeira Marques; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0156664290521652; Dias, Julliana Michaello Macedo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8996477208727758En varias ciudades brasileñas la fabricación de muebles de madera se realiza en talleres de carpintería, que forman parte de la cultura tradicional y popular brasileña. En esta actividad, el uso de diversas máquinas y equipos son constantes y plantean diversos problemas físicos, químicos, biológicos y ergonómicos, siendo los principales agentes: ruidos y vibraciones de las máquinas, polvo de Tableros de Fibra de Media Densidad (MDF), maderas, pinturas y resinas, movimientos Lesiones repetitivas y directas. En Brasil, las estadísticas de accidentes superan los 500.000 accidentes por año, estos a menudo resultan en incapacitación temporal o permanente, además de consecuencias sociales y psicológicas. En varios estudios, los resultados apuntan a una alta tasa de accidentabilidad en la carpintería. A partir de este entendimiento, el objetivo de esta tesis fue comprobar la posible influencia de la cultura en la forma actual de trabajar de los carpinteros en relación a temas de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo (SST), con base en entrevistas con 14 carpinteros del municipio de Palmeira dos Ìndios - Alagoas, a través de la aplicación de Cuestionario semiestructurado con preguntas cerradas y abiertas. Se encontró que alrededor del 71 % de los carpinteros aprendieron la práctica tradicional de la carpintería antes de los 18 años, Esto significa que todavía eran menores de edad. El 100 % de ellos aprendió a través de carpinteros. más experiencia, es decir, no participaron en cursos profesionales de su área de actividad y el 90 % Aprendí de carpinteros que no usaban regularmente equipos de protección. Individuales (EPI). Se encontró que el 90 % de los carpinteros no usaban regularmente EPI, a pesar de que el 100 %conoce los riesgos y ya ha sufrido algún tipo de accidente, con un 65 % ya ha participado en conferencias o cursos de capacitación con el Servicio Brasileño de Soporte a las Micro y Pequeñas Empresas (SEBRAE) durante su vida profesional. En esta resistencia a uso de EPP existe una fuerte tendencia a ser causado por la cultura de influencia de la forma en que aprendió la profesión, ya que el 80 % de los carpinteros, en sus discursos, afirmaron que no El uso de protección individual, de forma regular, se debe a que aprendieron de las personas. que no utilizaron EPP. De esta manera se llega a un entendimiento de que, incluso participando formación durante su profesión y sensibilización sobre los diversos riesgos inherentes a la SST, Los carpinteros optaron por ignorar los riesgos y no protegerse. Estos resultados refuerzan La tesis de que la cultura, específicamente la forma de aprender, influyó directamente en la toma de decisiones. decisión de los carpinteros de no protegerse en cuestiones de SST, lo que lleva a un cierto Banalización de los riesgos que se traduce en un elevado índice de accidentes.Item Estratégias de aprendizagem no ensino remoto emergencial do Instituto Federal de Alagoas(CENTRO UNIVERSITÁRIO DE MACEIÓ – UNIMA | Afya, 2025-09-23) Melo, Helisabety Barros Mendes de; Mendonça, Adriana de Lima; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0381713043828464; Mendes Junior, Walcler de Lima; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6938727316741941; Pereira, Jesana Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2329848572181989; Junkes, Janaína Accordi; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7777461824456062; Santos, Pedro Henrique Simonard; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0615985683640773Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) during the COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges for education. Students, for instance, had to adapt to the sudden transition to an online environment, and many struggled to maintain focus and manage their studies independently, making it necessary to adopt Learning Strategies. In this context, this research investigates the extent to which students enrolled in technical programs at the Federal Institute of Alagoas (IFAL) - Maceió Campus - made use of any type of Learning Strategy during ERT, aiming to understand how they coped with the demands of this new teaching format. With a qualitative-quantitative approach, a case study methodology was adopted, articulating two main procedures: Content Analysis of the students’ reports submitted as part of formative assessments during ERT, based on Bardin (2016), and the application of the Learning Strategies Assessment Scale for Vocational Education Students (EAVAP-EP) developed by Pereira; Santos; Ferraz (2020). The qualitative analysis of the students' narratives highlighted issues related to infrastructure and technology, teaching methodology, learning difficulties, and mental health—factors that compromised the appropriate use of these strategies. Students’ perceptions also revealed weaknesses in the institutional planning of ERT and gaps in the provision of technological, pedagogical, and psychological support. The EAVAP-EP, a validated instrument composed of 33 items distributed across three dimensions (Cognitive Strategies, Metacognitive Strategies, and Absence of Dysfunctional Metacognitive Strategies), was completed by 189 students. Statistical analysis was performed using R software (version 4.3.3), employing descriptive techniques. Quantitative data revealed satisfactory use of Metacognitive Strategies and, to a lesser extent, Cognitive Strategies. However, some students exhibited behaviors detrimental to learning (Absence of Dysfunctional Metacognitive Strategies). The results reinforce the urgent need, in light of the challenges faced, to implement pedagogical policies that systematically develop Learning Strategies, promote student autonomy, and foster better conditions for coping with adverse educational contexts.Item Impactos da mineração em micro e pequenos empresários em ambiente de conflitos socioambientais em Maceió/AL(CENTRO UNIVERSITÁRIO DE MACEIÓ - UNIMA | Afya, 2025-09-19) Verde, Marcelo de Barros de Lima; Lima Junior, Walcler Mendes de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6938727316741941; Rodrigues, Diego Freitas; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4648723371446148; Almeida, Natállya Levino de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2495024004949828; Fonseca, Débora de Barros Cavalcanti; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5479297370165991; Junkes, Janaína Accordi; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7777461824456062; Miyazawa, Ana Paula; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6462133462005479In Alagoas, mining activities have been taking place in the city of Maceió since the 1970s to extract rock salt, a type of sodium chloride used in the manufacture of caustic soda and PVC. In February 2018, after heavy rains and an earthquake, several cracks appeared in streets and properties in the Pinheiro neighborhood. A year later, the same phenomenon was also recorded in the neighborhoods of Mutange, Bebedouro, Bom Parto and Farol, resulting in the expulsion of approximately 60,000 people from the five neighborhoods affected by the overexploitation of rock salt and the closure of more than 6,000 companies. The objective of the research was to analyze the impacts on the businesses of micro and small entrepreneurs affected by the mining disaster in Maceió, Alagoas. In order to analyze the impact of such a disaster on entrepreneurs/traders, the study uses a mixed approach, of the explanatory sequential type. The first phase, quantitative, was characterized as a cross-sectional study, while the second phase was qualitative, exploratory and descriptive in nature. The environmental disaster caused by rock salt mining contributed to losses for micro and small businesses in the affected neighborhoods. In addition to the economic impact, the disaster caused by the subsidence of the soil caused by the Braskem mining company also caused damage to the mental health of micro and small business owners in the region, according to the participants in the survey, which took place between May 2023 and December 2024. Regarding the value of the PCF from the Braskem mining company for business owners: 3% thought the amount of financial compensation paid was fair, while 34% said it was not. The decrease in revenue and financial difficulties led to the closure of numerous companies and the loss of jobs. Dissatisfaction with the social rent paid by the Braskem mining company and the compromised mental health were reported by the majority of business owners. Keywords: Mining, Micro and small businesses, Entrepreneurs/Traders, Maceió.Item Sedentarismo em adolescentes escolares: uma revisão sistemática com metanálise(CENTRO DE ESTUDOS SUPERIORES DE MACEIÓ - CESMAC, 2020-03-23) Araújo, José Roberto Alves; Menezes, Pedro de Lemos; Menezes, Pedro de Lemos; Mousinho, Kristiana Cerqueira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6421689397117778; Carnaúba, Aline Tenório LinsIn recent years, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of sedentarism among adolescents (12-18 years), reaching, in some cases, epidemic proportions. The Fitnessgram testicle battery has been validated and used on millions of children, both in the United States, as well as in other parts of the world. The battery compared the health indicators related to health. The objective of the present systemic analysis was to analyze the efficiency of the program of physical exercises in use of schoolchildren, using the Body Mass Index - BMI to evaluate the performance of the Program. This is a systematic review with meta-analysis of clinical data, with search in the databases: Virtual Health Library (VHL), Open Gray, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scielo. This meta-analysis was performed with 2,146 database fundamentals and 195 abstracts were read. After reading the abstracts, 34 texts were completed for reading in full. Four papers were selected for a meta-analysis. Observations on the topic 1.15 (95% CI between -1.20 and 3.50) for the differentiation between the initial and final BMI of the control and intervention groups. The test for the overall effect obtained p <0.34, revealing that the selection was not significant. I² heterogeneity was 96%, high high. It is concluded that a measure of the difference between the indicators of the initial and final BMI of the control and intervention groups that the battery of testicles of the FITTYGRAN program does not guarantee the hypothesis of fighting alone the sedentary lifestyle.Item Dificuldades associadas ao sedentarismo em adolescentes ingressantes no ensino técnico médio integrado do Instituto Federal de Educação Tecnológica de Alagoas em 2024(UNIVERSIDADE TECNOLÓGICA INTERCONTINENTAL / UTIC , 2025-07-29) Araújo, José Roberto Alves; Montiel, Aberlardo Juvenal; González, Hugo Ferreira; Chávez, Silvio Torres; Cardozo, Julio César; Mitjans, Patrícia Figueredo de; Fretes, Aníbal BarrosThis thesis investigates the challenges associated with sedentary behavior among adolescents aged 15 to 17 who enrolled in the Integrated Technical High School Program in the Building Construction course at the Federal Institute of Alagoas (IFAL) in 2024. Using a quantitative approach, the research analyzes data collected through questionnaires from 40 students with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 25, across the campuses of Coruripe, Maceió, and Palmeira dos Índios. The results reveal a high prevalence of sedentary behavior, especially among female students, which correlates with inadequate dietary practices and a lack of regular physical activity. The theoretical framework addresses key concepts such as sedentary lifestyle, adolescent health, and the environmental and social factors that influence this behavior. The identified difficulties include the absence of physical activity, poor nutrition, and inadequate school infrastructure. Although students generally perceive physical spaces positively, access to these facilities is limited, and many do not engage in the recommended amount of exercise. The conclusion emphasizes the urgency of institutional strategies to promote health and physical activity, highlighting the role of education as a crucial transformative agent in combating youth sedentarism. The study underscores the importance of integrated and comprehensive interventions that consider both structural and behavioral aspects, aiming to improve adolescents’ quality of life and well-being in the school environment. Such actions are essential for fostering healthy habits and reducing the risks associated with a sedentarylifestyle in youth.Item O uso das mídias sociais Twitter e Instagram na eleição para reitor nos Institutos e Universidades Federais(2021) Neo, Giseldo da Silva; Moreira, Nadia Cardoso; Moreira, Nadia Cardoso; Teixeira, Arilda Magna Campagnaro; Bezerra, Francisco AntonioItem Eficiência energética e indicadores ambientais sobre o consumo de energia elétrica em uma edificação pública(2024) Rocha, Jean Jacques Bittencourt da; Souza, Mayara Andrade; Sant'Anna, Selenobaldo Alexinaldo Cabral de; Silva, Magno José Gomes da; Braga, Mauro SérgioUnbridled energy consumption is one of the main causes of environmental problems that threaten life on Earth, such as climate change, air pollution, global warming, and greenhouse gases. Consequently, reducing CO2 emissions has emerged as a major modern global concern. Therefore, energy efficiency is seen as a fundamental step towards achieving sustainable development. Studies indicate that public buildings consume significant amounts of electricity and waste a lot of it, and that there is a direct connection between the energy use of buildings, their efficiency, and the improvement of their environmental sustainability indicators. Based on this scenario, a study aimed to evaluate the energy efficiency and environmental indicators of the electricity consumption of a public educational building. The study enabled the scientific production of a Book Chapter that aimed to evaluate the energy efficiency of a public building and environmental indicators based on energy consumption, using for this a case study at IFAL - Federal Institute of Science and Technology of Alagoas, Maceió campus, using as a methodology to quantify efficiency the Technical Regulation for the Quality of the Energy Efficiency Level of Commercial, Service and Public Buildings (RTQ-C) and in the evaluation of sustainability indicators applied to the ecological footprint and carbon footprint, thus proposing solutions to increase energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. This study enabled the approval of the research project in PISIC 2003-2004, which allowed the integration of students and professors from the civil engineering and PPGASA courses of CESMAC, as well as contributions to the dissemination of the theme with publications of abstracts in annals and presentations, oral and on banners, of works in national and local congresses, where a bibliographic review, data collection, possible results and proposals for researched solutions were presented. As a technical production, a training course was held for students graduating from the electrical engineering course entitled “Energy consumption and environmental sustainability of a building”, with the objective of raising awareness among future industrial technicians in electrical engineering of the direct relationship between the consumption of electrical energy in a building and the influences on the environment, training professionals with a broader perspective of sustainability. In this training, teaching activities were used, increasing the direct involvement of students in the training, leading them to reflect on the degree of importance that professionals in this area influence the relationships of environmental sustainability on our planet. In view of the results obtained, the public school building was classified as having level B efficiency, contributing to CO2 emissions of 82.13 tons/ CO2/year through the consumption of electrical energy, resulting in a carbon footprint of 6.10 kg CO2/m²/year and an ecological footprint of 11.52 ha. Sustainable alternatives in the building regarding lighting, envelope and air conditioning systems imply a reduction of 26.52%, resulting in a saving of 395 MWh/year of energy, stopping the emission of more than 21,764 tons of CO2/year into the atmosphere.Item A educação ambiental nos cursos técnicos integrados ao ensino médio(2024) Bomfim, Deisy Anny; Santos, Aldenir Feitosa dos; Bassi, Letícia Anderson; Vilela, Lívia Maria Batista; Silva, José Atalvanio daEnvironmental Education (EE) is essential in today's context, standing out in the face of global challenges such as excessive consumption, deforestation and pollution. Events such as the Stockholm Conference (1972) and COP 27 (2022) highlight advances in sustainable development. In Brazil, the National Environmental Education Policy (PNEA) faces difficulties, such as the lack of teacher training and the prioritization of other school content. Although EE plays a central role in integrating society and nature, its application in schools is often punctual and limited, facing obstacles such as the use of traditional methods and the absence of integrated projects. The aim of this end-of-course work was to carry out a situational diagnosis of environmental education in the Integrated Technical Courses at the Instituto Federal de Alagoas (Ifal) and to encourage its implementation at the institution. The research was exploratory, classified as bibliographical and documentary, and applied to the 15 Ifal campuses that offer Integrated Technical Courses. Data collection included analysis of official documents, recent bibliography and the Integrated Academic Activities Management System (SIGAA) to identify projects related to EE. In education, an analysis of the Pedagogical Course Projects (PCP) was carried out, which made it possible to identify that the environmental theme is approached unevenly when comparing intercourses and intra-courses on different campuses. The analysis of the PCP indicates that environmental education is present, but needs more consistency and depth. Terms such as “Environmental Education” and “Sustainability” are more common in agricultural and environmental courses, while technological areas show little integration. A questionnaire was validated using the Delphi Technique and then applied to teachers. The validation process resulted in a questionnaire used to assess the effective implementation of EE at Ifal and the position of teachers in relation to the sustainability practices adopted in their daily lives. The application of the Delphi method improved the questionnaire, especially in terms of the relevance and clarity of the questions. The main adjustments to the questionnaire focused on replacing terms, making the analysis tool more objective. The Delphi method made it possible to produce a research tool capable of identifying the reality of environmental education practice at Ifal and to draw up a profile of the teaching staff in relation to the implementation of educational activities aimed at environmental education. As for extension, the results show that Ifal promotes environmental education through actions concentrated on a few campuses and specific categories. However, there has been a drop in these actions over the last three years, possibly due to the pandemic. In addition, a training course in environmental education was designed for Ifal teachers, with the aim of improving their approach to environmental issues. In this sense, it is crucial to disseminate information and promote responsible attitudes that help develop students as conscious citizens. Therefore, learning tools should provide greater freedom and autonomy, allowing students to develop skills and understand the reality in which they are inserted. Technical reports with the conclusions of the research were produced and made available to the institution, with the aim of collaborating with future EE initiatives in teaching, research and extension.Item Percepção sócio, econômico e ambiental no fazer artístico do Folguedo da Comunidade Quilombola Tabacaria, Palmeira dos Índios-Alagoas(2025) Cavalcanti, Daniel Andrade; Vieira, Jorge L. Gonzaga; Sant’Anna, Selenobaldo A. C. de; Souza, Mayara Andrade; Santos, James Washigton Alves dos; Silva Júnior, Ailton daThe various traditional communities such as quilombos have a wide repertoire of knowledge arising from their history and trajectory. Among them, there is knowledge related to social, economic, environmental activities and cultural manifestations. Therefore, they play an important role in maintaining the cultural diversity of humanity, as well as being responsible for undertaking sustainable development in their different territories, where they influence and are influenced by the environment. This knowledge and relationship with the land makes the quilombola territory a space of life and memory. Remnants of a slavery past, quilombola communities are today protected by laws. In Alagoas, among the populations that gained visibility for their struggle for land ownership, is Quilombo da Tabacaria, located in Palmeira dos Índios, the first to be given title in the state. In the process of struggle, despite the setbacks, Tabacaria kept the legacy of its ancestors alive, having in the reisado, one of its greatest cultural expressions. Reisado is a popular party, danced and sung during the Christmas period. This research was carried out between 2023 and 2024, focusing on the local party group. With this research we seek to understand how the festivities present in the Quilombola Tabacaria Community contribute to The study had a methodological contribution in the qualitative approach of the interventional type with community residents, involved in carrying out the reisado, where they were recruited to participate in the research. As an instrument for collecting and analyzing data, we used a semi-structured questionnaire, divided into three parts, social/economic, environmental and cultural. This research generated three products, a film documentary, an Instagram of Reisado Quilombola Tabacaria and a scientific article. We present partial results of this research through summaries, in the form of banners, presentation of oral work in workshops, at local scientific events. Our perception is that in artistic practice, Reisado Quilombo Tabacaria impacts its community and environment, as well as being impacted by them, as they are organically integrated into its location.Item Teatro em sala de aula: proposta educativo-ambiental na educação profissional e tecnológica do Instituto Federal de Alagoas(2025) Leão, Anne Delly Gomes; Souza, Mayara Andrade; Sant'Anna, Selenobaldo Alexinaldo Cabral de; Pessoas, Taciano; Melo, Juliana de Araújo deAgriculture plays a crucial role in the Brazilian economy, not only for food production, but also for generating employment and income. The growing concern with sustainability requires the adoption of more responsible and conscious sustainable practices, given the environmental problems that compromise the quality of life on the planet, in the face of the urgency of climate change. In this context, the modern agricultural production system, in the face of market demand, contributes to this imbalance by promoting an accelerated increase in production, often without regard for the degradation of nature and the health of the population. Therefore, it is essential to reflect on the training of Agricultural Technicians in relation to socio-environmental issues, as they will be a direct agent in facing this problem when entering the world of work. The objective of this research is to promote environmental awareness within the scope of professional and Technological Education at the Federal Institute of Alagoas - IFAL, Campus Satuba, to students of the Agriculture course through the Forum Theater Technique. From this study, a scientific article entitled “Theatre in the classroom: educational-environmental proposal in Professional and Technological education at the Federal Institute of Alagoas” was created as an educational bibliographic product. This is an Environmental Education research that had the theoretical methodological support of Action Research and adopted a qualitative research approach. . As an instrument for collecting and analyzing data, a Reflective Diary and semi-structured questionnaires were used. This investigation was carried out through theatrical workshops, which took place in 07 meetings, at Campus Satuba, from August to September 2023, with 27 students from the 1st year of the Agriculture course. The staging of the theatrical scenes in the classroom took place through the Theater-Forum Technique, by playwright Augusto Boal, encouraging discussions on topics related to environmental issues, focusing on themes present in the daily life of the Agricultural Technician. Two Forum Theater scenes were produced and presented by the students participating in the research, promoting a debate in the class on the topic. The partial results of this investigation resulted in publications of abstracts, in the form of banners and proceedings at local, regional and national events. As Technical Production, educational material/Booklet was produced with the title “Sustainable Agriculture”, addressing the theme of sustainable practices as a tool to ensure the preservation of the environment. An animation video was also created with stories based on the two Forum Theater scenes produced by students. The products created met the proposal of instruments for disseminating and raising awareness of the topic in question. Experience shows that Theater and Action Research enable critical-emancipatory practices for students, contributing to the environmental awareness of participants involved in the investigation. The Forum Theater allows participants to solve or present alternatives to minimize environmental and ethical problems in Técnico's world of work, as the discussion of problems involving environmental issues was encouraged. Theater in Education has potential to transform reality, bringing problems to the classroom, pointing out possible solutions, thus awakening an ecological awareness in future Agricultural Technicians at IFAL, but the intensity in which the information worked on were effectively achieved in students, as they depend on a change in behavior as professionals. And for this measurement, further research on the topic is required.Item Sistema de computação em borda para controle preditivo de veículos autoguiados em redes sem fio sujeitas à degradação(2023) Omena, Rômulo Afonso Luna Vianna de; Santos, Danilo Freire de Souza; Perkusich, Angelo; Lima, Antonio Marcus Nogueira; Silva, Jaidilson Jó da; Brito, Alisson Vasconcelos de; Pereira, Carlos Eduardo; Valadares, Dalton Cézane GomesAutomated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are essential for industry material transportation. In the Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things scenario, the AGV fleet is expected to be connected and integrated into the factory management system, being flexible and adapting to new demands. AGV control systems with fixed path navigation may not meet these requirements. Edge computing brings cloud resources to the network’s edge, making them closer to users. These resources can be accessed through a wireless network and applied to industrial demands. The AGVs can benefit from this when offloading tasks that require more computing resources to the edge server. However, the wireless network in the industrial environment is subject to degradation due to interference, signal reflections, shadowing effects, and electromagnetic wave absorption, among other challenges. The AGV, as a mobile robot, may traverse areas where the signal is degraded, increasing risks of collisions and accidents. Results of experiments suggest that Model Predictive Control (MPC) executed at the edge server, combined with a delay and packet loss compensation strategy implemented in the robot, can be used to mitigate these network degradations. In sequence, a two-tier architecture with MPCs is proposed to control multiple AGVs. The first tier, executed on the edge server, plans the trajectory of the AGVs globally, preventing collisions of the AGVs with fixed obstacles and each other. In the computer embedded in the AGV, the compensator used in the previous experiments gives place to a trajectory-tracking MPC, which must receive the trajectory of the respective AGV from the edge server and track it. Results of experiments carried out in four validation scenarios indicate that from the proposed architecture, it is possible to drive the AGVs without collisions, even in the communication network’s occurrence of delays and packet losses. In addition, tasks that demand more computational resources are offloaded to the edge server so that the computer embedded in the AGV can have more restricted resources, reducing costs and battery consumption.Item "Entre Jesus, Apolo e Obatalá”: o hibridismo transcontinental do Vale do Amanhecer e as relações de poder(2024) Silva, Roberto Calabria Guimarães da; Raimundo, Valdenice José; Peixoto, Adelson Lopes; Santos, James Washington Alves dos; Aragão, Gilbraz de Souza; Campos, Zuleica Dantas Pereira; Raimundo, Valdenice JoséThis research had as its object of study to analyze the power relations, which at an institutional level, ranging from the command of work to the national/international command of religion, at a spiritual level organizes the hierarchy between men and women, present in the Vale do Amanhecer, through the perception of mediums. In order to respond to the problem presented by the object, the following objective was formulated: to investigate the religious practices of the Vale do Amanhecer, based on the analysis of its history, associating it with the story of Tia Neiva and relating it to transcontinental hybridism. This analysis will have as categories of analysis the transcontinental hybridism and the power relations. The choice for transcontinental hybridism occurred because it was not possible, in our analysis, to dialogue with the syncretism category, since the pantheon of the Valley forms a mosaic with entities from various faiths and continents such as Candomblé, Umbanda, Christianity, Kardecism, religions of Ancient Greece and Egypt, Buddhism and ufology entities as elements of the book Exilados de Capela, involving spiritual entities from religions of four continents that were incorporated into the Vale do Amanhecer, working in order and synchrony, without the mirroring of the entities, as was imposed on religions of African origin, in which an Orixá represented a Saint, as a way for the enslaved to be able to worship their faith without being repressed by their masters. To collect the data, forms with specific questions about the topic were sent, and the responses were analyzed using a quantitative and qualitative approach, in which the percentages, individual analysis, and the combined responses made it possible to understand the mediums' view of how they observe the hierarchy, defined by power relations, in a hybrid and transcontinental community. This research also focused on analyzing the place that women occupy in the hierarchy of the Valley. The research showed that most women perceived a devaluation of the place occupied by the female public, which leads to a contradiction, since the religion was created by Tia Neiva, who after her death was elevated to one of the main spiritual entities of the Vale do Amanhecer. This study will contribute to a better understanding of the relationships that are established in the Valley, as well as give visibility to the religious and spiritual practices experienced in the Vale do Amanhecer. The thesis is based on the dialogue between the categories of hybridism, taking as a basis Cancline (1997), a genre in which Nunes's (1985) thinking fits into the issue of women's protagonism in the Valley, and finally, multiculturalism based on the concepts of Touraine (1997). The thesis proposes to describe the Vale do Amanhecer in its historical context and in its relations with the religions that hybridize with it, emphasizing Catholicism, Kardecism and Umbanda, which exert a strong influence, both in the rituals and in the mediums and patients who attend.Item Desenvolvimento de modelos preditivos para avaliação de paisagem sonora com base em levantamento na orla marítima da cidade Maceió-AL(2025) Santos, Jordana Teixeira da Silva Lima; Oiticica, Maria Lúcia Gondim da Rosa; Toledo, Alexandre Márcio; Cavalcante, Morgana Maria Pitta Duarte; Miranda, Erasmo Felipe Vergara; Michalski, Ranny Loureiro Xavier NascimentoIn recent years, the field of soundscape studies has gained increasing prominence, driven by the need to transcend traditional approaches to urban environmental management that focus exclusively on noise control policies. Adopting a multidisciplinary perspective, the assessment of urban sound environments integrates both subjective variables, related to user perception and objective physical parameters inherent to the specific context and location. In this regard, the development of analytical tools capable of understanding and predicting perceptual responses to planning decisions through predictive modeling is essential. This doctoral thesis proposes a methodology for the evaluation of urban soundscapes based on the development of predictive models and their application in public spaces in the city of Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil, specifically along the seafront of the Ponta Verde and Pajuçara neighborhoods. The study adopts an applied research design, encompassing field data collection in accordance with the ISO 12913 normative series, including soundwalks, questionnaires, and acoustic measurements. A novel methodological approach is presented, involving the construction of a mixed questionnaire grounded in methods A and B of ISO/TS 12913-2, enriched with contextual and visual information. Furthermore, a procedure for acoustic environment characterization is proposed, aligned with ISO/TS 12913-3, and complemented by in-depth analyses of interrelations among perceptual and contextual factors. This is followed by correlation analyses and the identification of relevant indicators (empirical data) and descriptors (measures of perceptual response) for model development. The modeling framework comprises both linear predictive models (multiple linear regression) and nonlinear models (artificial neural networks – ANN). The ANN-based models demonstrated up to 35% greater predictive performance compared to linear models, with one model achieving a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.98. The methodological advancements presented herein offer a significant contribution to the technological field of urban soundscape assessment, providing support for evidence-based decision-making by researchers and urban planners. This research expands the theoretical and practical horizons of soundscape studies by proposing innovative approaches for the characterization and predictive modeling of urban acoustic environments.Item Alocação adequada do quadro geral de baixa tensão através da busca pelo caminho mais curto(2018) Abreu, Jacksiel José de; Cavalcante, Carlos Arthur Mattos Teixeira; Cavalcante, Carlos Arthur Mattos Teixeira; Sant’Anna, Ângelo Márcio Oliveira; Claudino, Elder de SouzaThe allocation of the low voltage electrical power general distribution board at buildings is determined by technical, normative and economical parameters. A properly allocation of the low voltage main board reduces the wiring lengths of the feeders and distribution circuits designed for the installations, and, consequently, reduces the deployment costs as well the operative costs (power consumption) related to power dissipation (Joule heating). This work aims to develop and apply an optimization model for the optimal location determination of the low voltage main board at houses, flats, commercial buildings and small industries. To solve this problem, it has been adopted a network optimization model to determine the shortest route to pass the conductors, in which results in costs reduction. For validation of the proposed solution, it was performed a case study, where, taking real parameters, the definition of an optimization technique executed in Excel Solver, has indicated a point considered as the optimal location of the low voltage main board. Then, the obtained results were compared to location returned by load center, method traditionally used. From this comparison, it was verified the efficiency of the suggested method assuring a reliable and economical decision making.Item Análise do plano de gestão de resíduos de serviços saúde de estabelecimentos do Estado de Alagoas(2025) Silva, Ivonaldo Gomes da ; Santos Filho, Moézio de Vasconcellos Costa; Sant’Anna, Selenobaldo Alexinaldo Cabral de; Santos, Aldenir Feitosa dos; Miranda, Paulo Rogério Barbosa de; Ribeiro, Cássia Roberta PontesWaste is the material that remains or that is undesirably generated in an activity. Healthcare Waste (HW) is that produced by any agent of prevention, maintenance or recovery of human or animal health or aesthetics. The increase in the population and the growth in demand for health and beauty procedures drive the generation of HW, causing health risks to those who come into contact with it. In Brazil, health, environmental, labor or metrology surveillance institutions issue standards, such as RDC nº 222/2018 from Anvisa and ABNT NBR 12808:2020, which aim to regulate activities so that harm to humans and the environment is avoided or, at least, minimized. One of the regulatory requirements is that each generator prepares and executes a Health Service Waste Management Plan (HWMP), making it available to anyone who wishes to consult it. This is an essential document for the provider to obtain the environmental operating license. Thus, the main objective of this study is to analyze the compliance of the HWMP with the current related standards. To this end, a theoretical framework for analysis (TFA) was developed, with each item based on the rigor of the available standards and literature, to serve as a parameter. In order to compare them among themselves, as well as not to expose the institution, each establishment was identified by the acronym HWG (healthcare waste generator) followed by the number corresponding to the position of the decreasing number of pages of its HWMP. A methodology was used that assigns scores of 5 (five), 3 (three) or 0 (zero), depending on whether the item of the Plan is fully, partially or not answered, respectively. Of the approximately 130 establishments consulted, only 13 made their HWMP available, and of these, the majority through the Access to Information Law. The TFA was structured with 70 questions grouped into six items. On this scale, each HWG could obtain up to 350 points. However, the scores ranged from only 137 (HWG13) to 243 (HWG5), that is, they are between 39% and 69% of an ideal standard, with five of them below 50% compliance with health and environmental standards. Given the limited availability of PGRSSs and the poor adherence to the standards of those that were analyzed, it is concluded that this document is absent in many establishments in the State of Alagoas and, in those that do exist, improvements are needed.Item Programa mulheres mil: história de vida como possibilidade de avaliação e implementação de políticas públicas(2024) Oliveira, Evilma dos Santos; Galvão, Vivianny Kelly; Pereira, Jesana Batista; Mendonça, Adriana de Lima; Monteiro, Lorena Madruga; Lima, Antônio Carlos Santos de; Brasileiro, Regina Maria de OliveiraThe present research proposes a reflection on public policies and government programmes aimed at women in Brazil, using as a shortcut the Mulheres Mil Program in the period from 2005 to 2019 and its developments at the Federal Institute of Alagoas. Since the Mulheres Mil Program is a public policy of combating gender inequalities, reducing poverty, raising schooling and reducing violence against women, the design of this study is organized to answer the following question: does the women's mil Program envisage in its formulation commitments with productive inclusion and with the tackling of gender disparity, thus contributing to the full exercise of citizenship of women served? To this end, we systematically and analytically identified the formulations of public policies for women, the advances and challenges of the National Policies Plans for Women, the proposal of the Women's Mill as a social policy of inclusion and gender and the perception of the progress from vocational training and incentive to formal education in the courses offered. Faced with the object of study, the research focused on a qualitative approach using oral history as a method. The life stories of ten graduates who were beneficiaries of the Mulheres Mil Program at the Federal Institute of Alagoas were analyzed. The data collection took place between October 2022 and January 2023 in face-to-face meetings to build their life stories. The narratives were categorized around three axes: the socio-economic profile of the women interviewed, the elevation of the schooling of the graduates after participating in the Program and the insertion of women in the formal labour market according to the vocational training received. The narratives reveal that the exgresses are in the age group between 29 and 61, 70% are married and have between 01 and 06 children. Most (60%) have completed secondary education, but only 10% have continued their studies after participating in the Programme. The analysis on the income of the graduates shows that 50% are engaged in some kind of paid activity. It was also noticed that the beneficiaries were able to put in practice the knowledge acquired in the courses, but were not inserted into the formal labour market. The life stories of the women interviewed revealed that the participation of the Program had positive effects in relation to the rescue of self-esteem, the discovery of their rights and the living with a citizen education. With regard to the increase in schooling, it was found that a significant proportion (90%) of the graduates failed to resume their studies. The results demonstrate the importance of fostering debate on the challenges in formulating and implementing public policies for women.Item Gastos em educação infantil e gestão eficiente: uma análise da relação com a qualidade do ensino nos municípios brasileiros(2024) Silva, Janieide Domingos da; João Eudes; Mariana Pereira; Caldas, Olavo Venturim; Olavo Venturim; Caldas, Olavo Venturim; Bezerra Filho, João Eudes; Bonfim, Mariana PereiraThis study investigated the existence of a relationship between municipal spending on early childhood education and the Municipal Management Effectiveness Index (IEGM) with the quality of basic education in Brazil. The quality of education was measured based on IDEB scores. The types of spending on early childhood education were obtained from the Public Budget Information System in Education (SIOPE), considering the spending per student in early childhood education (nurseries and preschools). The efficiency of municipal management was measured using the IEGM. The research is quantitative, and 55,700 observations were collected in a longitudinal dataset from 2012 to 2021. The econometric models were estimated using Multiple Linear Regression, Quantile Regression, and panel data. The results indicate an association between efficient management and quality of education, suggesting that management practices should be expanded and strengthened in municipalities. On the other hand, higher spending per student in nurseries and preschools is not associated with better educational quality, suggesting that simply increasing financial resources is not sufficient for better educational performance. It was also found that although municipalities spend above the 25% minimum threshold defined by the Federal Constitution on education, the association with IDEB scores remains negative, supporting the idea that education should be considered from a perspective beyond just financial aspects. The research contributes to the debate on improving educational quality and efficiency in resource allocation, expanding the understanding of the factors determining educational quality.Item Modelo para predição de indicadores de continuidade em um sistema de distribuição de energia elétrica, uma aplicação à gestão de manutenção com a perspectiva do uso da termografia(2016) Araújo Junior, José Arnóbio de; Magalhães, Robson da Silva; Esquerre, Karla Patrícia Santos Oliveira Rodriguez; Bandeira, Anselmo Alves; Silva, Magno José Gomes daThe Electrical power distribution system (SDEE) of most of the Northeast region concessionaires are old and present different kinds of problems. In an indirect way, these problems can be verified through the collective indicators of continuity, provided by the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL). These indicators include the Interruption Equivalent Duration per Consumer Unit (DEC) and the Interruption Equivalent Frequency per Consumer Unit (FEC). In order to improve these indicators, this study proposes a methodology to be applied in the analysis of the history of occurrences (interruptions in power supply) registered in an electricity distribution concessionaire, from January 2013 to December 2014. The methodology proposed here is based on the construction of a model that establishes the DEC and FEC indicators. Once the proposed model is constructed, considering the period of operation of the SDEE to be analyzed, we intend to set the values of DEC and FEC, according to the observed and recorded occurrences for this system. The prior knowledge of DEC and FEC indicators allows the maintenance management, making it possible to measure the influence of the main failure modes on the composition of these indicators. As a basis for the elaboration of the analysis methodology and that of the model, we carried out a research, together with an energy distribution concessionaire, which will be denominated, in this work, as concessionaire A. This research involves a survey of the occurrences of failures (with interruption) within a group of consumers. Data was collected monthly, from January 2013 to December 2014. From these data, a model structure based on Multiple Linear Regression Analysis (ARLM) was constructed. There is, on the part of concessionaire A, the intention to develop maintenance actions that apply thermographic techniques. These techniques allow the thermal gradient mapping of a given energized device, distinguishing different temperatures by means of infrared radiation. For this purpose, the concessionaire A has invested on equipment and personnel training. This study proposes the application of the model which was built, based on ARLM, as a support tool to evaluate the influence of failure modes on the composition of continuity indicators (DEC and FEC). The failure modes of greatest interest are those that are likely to be detected by thermography. The prior knowledge of the influence of failure modes on the composition of these indicators will enable a decision making, aiming at the execution of maintenance actions, allowing the concessionaire to perform a direct action on the feeder and on the most influential modes of failure, especially on those that can be detected by thermography.
