ESTRUTURA EDUCACIONAL DE APOIO À INOVAÇÃO E PROCESSO ORIGINAL DE CONVERSÃO DO CONHECIMENTO
No full textO projeto propõe a criação de uma Estrutura Educacional de Apoio à Inovação, alternativa, cujo objetivo é possibilitar a transformação do conhecimento científico em produtos e serviços aplicáveis ao setor produtivo, por meio do arranjo entre os diferentes atores que articulam e coordenam as ações do sistema de ensino brasileiro.
O projeto, também, apresenta um Processo Original de Conversão do Conhecimento (POCC) fundamentado na teoria da espiral do conhecimento, desenvolvida por Ikujiro Nonaka e Hirotaka Takaeuchi, e na plataforma de ensino-aprendizagem da Iniciativa CDIO - Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate (CDIO). O POCC tem por objetivo suportar as etapas do processo de conversão do conhecimento propostas na Estrutura Educacional de Apoio à Inovação.
A proposta nasce da constatação de que o país enfrenta desafios significativos na promoção da inovação e, assim, apresenta uma estrutura mais funcional e conectada às necessidades tanto das empresas quanto da sociedade, em termos de competências e habilidades para pesquisas científicas, emprego, trabalho decente e empreendedorismo, principalmente, das populações periféricas.
O constructo apresentado no corpo do trabalho constitui o núcleo conceitual do modelo proposto neste projeto
Surgical risk scores and their use in predicting critical care utilisation for adults undergoing non-cardiac surgery: a scoping review protocol
No full textThe objective of this scoping review is to understand and present the extent and type of evidence relating to the use of surgical risk scores and prediction of post-operative ICU admission and critical care resource utilisation. It will provide a systematic and comprehensive analysis of available evidence on the use of surgical risk scores to predict post-operative critical care utilisation. The review will then provide a basis to guide further research and inform clinical decision making for an essential and limited resource
Pathways to Young Adulthood: The Effects of Contemporary Career and Technical Education on College-Going and Employment Outcomes of High School Students (Career Academies)
No full textCareer academies are within-school, multi-year programs that integrate career and technical education (CTE) courses, project-based learning, internships, and other activities organized around specific career themes (Levesque et al., 2008). They aim to improve student engagement in high school by linking schoolwork to employment contexts and the kinds of jobs students might later pursue. Research on the causal effects of participation in career academies began with an MDRC-led lottery-based study of 9 academies operating during the 1990s (Kemple, 2001, 2004; Kemple et al., 1999; Kemple & Willner, 2008). Since that time, the foci of career academies have broadened, and the range of students served by such academies—as well as other forms of CTE programming—has widened (Dougherty & Lombardi, 2016; Ecton & Dougherty, 2023; Giani, 2019; Hemelt et al., 2019; Kreisman & Stange, 2020).
Our aim is to update the literature on career academies that was established in a limited manner during a time when education policy looked distinct from what it has for the past two decades. This study examines the effects of attending a career academy in North Carolina’s Wake County Public School System (WCPSS) on educational and economic outcomes following high school. Academies with oversubscribed lotteries offer opportunities in the areas of information technology or engineering, and remaining academies span nearly every program of study. We will leverage both oversubscribed lotteries and selection-on-observables approaches to examine how career academy attendance shapes high school, postsecondary, and labor market outcomes
Environmental Structulogy
No full textEnvironmental Structurology is a conceptual approach that examines how human consciousness and behaviour emerge through interaction with environmental structures. Rather than viewing behaviour as a product generated solely inside the brain, this perspective considers action as the result of dynamic relationships between organisms and their environments. Environmental Structurology forms part of a broader framework called Environmental Structure Science, which investigates how environmental structures influence biological, cognitive, and social processes
Institutional Isomorphism in Hospital Contexts: A Scoping Review and Conceptual Synthesis of Its Interrelationships and Effects
No full textThis scoping review aims to map and synthesize the academic literature on the application of institutional isomorphism in hospital organizations. The review focuses on coercive, normative, and mimetic pressures, as well as their interrelationships with legitimacy, quality management, accreditation, innovation, governance, and organizational change in hospital contexts. The study follows PRISMA-ScR guidelines and seeks to develop an integrated conceptual framework to explain how institutional pressures shape convergence, adaptation, and variation across healthcare organizations
Climate Change Impacts on Water Security in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review of Hydroclimatic Trends, Resilience Strategies, and Governance in Major River Basins
No full textThis project is a systematic literature review titled “Climate Change Impacts on Water Security in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review of Hydroclimatic Trends, Resilience Strategies, and Governance in Major River Basins”.
The purpose of the review is to synthesise 50 peer-reviewed and grey-literature studies published between 2009 and 2025 to examine hydroclimatic impacts, resilience strategies, and governance frameworks in Ethiopia’s four major river basins: Abbay (Blue Nile), Awash, Omo-Gibe, and Rift Valley Lakes. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines with dual-independent screening, manual thematic synthesis, and study-type-specific quality appraisal, the review harmonises heterogeneous quantitative projections to avoid apples-to-oranges comparisons.
Key objectives are: (1) to assess climate change impacts on water availability, quality, and accessibility and their socio-economic effects on agriculture-dependent communities; (2) to identify limitations in the current literature on climate models, policy frameworks, and water quality/ecosystem services; and (3) to propose interdisciplinary approaches, governance structures, and adaptive management strategies to enhance water security while recommending future research directions.
The review focuses on the Awash Basin while providing comparative analysis across all four basins. Expected outcomes include a harmonised synthesis of projected drying trends under high-emission pathways (most severe in Rift Valley Lakes and Awash), identification of socio-economic amplifiers and governance gaps, and actionable recommendations for strengthening Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM), stakeholder collaboration, early-warning integration, and climate-resilient infrastructure. These insights are intended to inform equitable, basin-specific policy and to be transferable to other low-emission, water-stressed regions
AI POWERED SEO KEYWORD GENERATOR USING NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING AND MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES
No full textSearch Engine Optimization (SEO) is an essential strategy used to improve the visibility of websites on search engines. One of the most critical tasks in SEO is keyword research, which helps identify relevant search terms used by users. Traditional keyword research methods require manual effort and depend heavily on commercial SEO tools, which may be time-consuming and expensive
