Her extended family and roots are New Mexican (Chicana). She received her B.S. degree in Human Development from UC Davis, and her M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Educational Psychology from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Her dissertation focused on assessing differential treatment of underrepresented students in college classrooms. She is the editor of Living Chicana Theory and Chicana Lesbians: The Girls Our Mothers Warned Us About (Third Woman Press), winner of a Lambda Book Award and the Out/Write Vanguard Award. Her first novel, What Night Brings (Curbstone Press 2003), won the Miguel Marmol prize focusing on human rights. What Night Brings also won the Paterson Fiction Prize, the Latino Literary Foundation Latino Book Award, Bronze Medal from Foreword Magazine, Honorable Mention for the Gustavus Meyers Books Award, and was a LAMBDA Book Award finalist. Carla has also written various articles on identity and higher education. Her latest novel, Faith and Fat Chances, was a finalist for the 2012 PEN Bellwether Prize for socially engaged fiction and is forthcoming from Curbstone/Northwestern University Press. Carla works as the Assistant Dean for Graduate Diversity Program at U.C. Berkeley and has focused some of her recent activities on improving the work and classroom climate using Interactive Theater. She has lectured in Ethnic Studies at U.C. Berkeley and Mills College, and in Women’s Studies at S.F. State University.

Hazelnut shells and rice husks activated biochars for the adsorption of atrazine and terbuthylazine
No full textThis study investigates the synthesis, characterization, and efficiency of activated biochars derived from secondgeneration biomasses—specifically hazelnut shells and rice husks—for remediating water contaminated with
herbicides, including atrazine and terbuthylazine. These biomasses, recognized as agricultural wastes from highyield crops, undergo a 2-step processing method: initial slow pyrolysis at 700 °C, followed by physical activation
using steam at 850 °C. The resulting biochars, both in their natural and activated forms, were characterized using
various analytical techniques, including elemental analysis, ash content determination, nitrogen physisorption,
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and programmed temperature desorption. The adsorption capacity of
the biochars was initially evaluated using trichloroethylene as a model molecule to simulate the adsorption
mechanism of triazine herbicides. After determining the maximum adsorption capacity of the pollutant, adsorption tests for atrazine and terbuthylazine were conducted. The biochars adsorbed up to 93% of the 2 pollutants in the tests. These findings highlight the potential of activated biochars derived from second-generation
waste biomass as an effective and sustainable alternative to conventional commercial activated carbons for
purifying herbicide-contaminated water
Formação continuada de professoes da Escola Estadual Dr. Leniro Ribeiro Bittencourt
No full textOrientadora : Profª Jandicleide LopesMonografia (especialização) - Universidade Federal do Paraná, Setor de Educação, Curso de Especialização em Coordenação PedagógicaInclui referênciasResumo : Para produzir esta pesquisa que tem como tema Formação continuada de professores da Escola Estadual Dr Leniro Ribeiro Bittencourt, procurou-se analisar junto ao grupo de professores dessa escola de Ensino Fundamental de 6º ao 9º a opinião dos docentes quanto relevância de estudos periódicos no momento de hora atividade. O foco central da pesquisa é o seguinte questionamento: Os professores da Escola Estadual Dr. Leniro Ribeiro Bittencourt consideram importante as leituras, discussões e reflexões no espaço de hora atividade para sua formação continuada? Esse momento de estudos pode subsidiar, melhorar, fortalecer e embasar sua prática em sala de aula? Para a pesquisa utilizou-se uma entrevista com 12 perguntas objetivas onde os professores poderiam eleger mais que uma resposta. O questionário foi oferecido a 14 professores sendo que 12 responderam as questões. Para analisar os dados, buscamos os autores Larissa Peters Paiva, Crislaine Maria Groxo (2008), Bruna Barboza Trasel, Lisiane Goette ( 2015), Aline dos Santos, Carla Gomes Moreira Juliana Angelo Martins de Oliveira (2015). Os resultados mostram que mesmo sendo considerado de grande relevância os estudos para aperfeiçoamento do professor, estes não dão conta de ajudar e explicar os desafios da prática pedagógica subsidiando o trabalho em sala de aula, por esse motivo não há real interesse em estudos periódicos já que existem trabalhos urgentes a serem desenvolvidos

Avaliação de sistemas adesivos em dentina decídua: influência do envelhecimento na microtração e na nanoinfiltração
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências da Saúde. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Odontologia.Este estudo in vitro foi realizado com o objetivo de avaliar a resistência à microtração, e a nanoinfiltração de sistemas adesivos em dentina decídua, imediatamente (IM) e após seis meses (6M) do procedimento adesivo. Coroas de molares decíduos, hígidos e extraídos, foram desgastadas com papel de carbeto de silício até a granulação 600, obtendo-se superfícies oclusais planas, distribuídas em quatro grupos: Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SMP), Single Bond (SB), Clearfil SE Bond (CSB) e Adper Prompt L-Pop (APL). Baseado nos dados obtidos pôde-se concluir que a resistência adesiva e a nanoinfiltração não foram influenciadas pelo envelhecimento e que a expressão da nanoinfiltração foi diferente entre os adesivos de condicionamento ácido total e autocondicionantes
