A transcrição do medo: a abordagem de João de Melo e José Martins Garcia nas obras Livro de Vozes e Sombras e O Medo

Publication . Reis, Roberto de Jesus Ferreira dos; Alpalhão, Margarida dos Santos

O medo é inerente à condição humana, seja pelo instinto de sobrevivência, seja pela condição física e química que o nosso corpo desenvolve. Porque sentimos medo? Como vencemos o medo? Estas e outras questões são-nos colocadas diariamente enquanto caminhamos pela vida. Sentir medo é inato, perante o que vemos, pela interação com os outros, por nos sentirmos impotentes em determinada situação. As circunstâncias por que sentimos medo são inúmeras e, por isso, continuam a ser estudadas. Neste estudo, veremos que o medo, como emoção, é uma resposta complexa que envolve experiências subjetivas, reações fisiológicas e comportamentos expressivos. Nas duas obras referenciadas em título, vivenciam-se diversos aspetos do medo ou, aliás, diversos tipos de medo, de acordo com o decorrer das ações, com o tipo de personagens escolhidas e caracterizadas física e psicologicamente, assim como dependendo dos cenários em que cada autor as coloca e das situações a que as sujeita. O presente estudo tem como objetivo estudar as duas obras, recorrendo à atitude comparatista (Buescu, 2009) e à forma como cada autor nos apresenta o medo, criando-se um diálogo implícito entre elas. As épocas — algo distintas — não deixam de ter uma similitude no que ao tema as une: descolonização, ditadura e o medo, nas suas diferentes facetas. Ambas as obras abordam o 25 de Abril de 1974, dando uma visão dos acontecimentos que tiveram impacto na vida social portuguesa. Os narradores refletem o desalento que os consome ao imaginar um Portugal diferente. A intervenção política é transmitida através das vozes e olhares das personagens, que ecoam os seus maiores medos.

Initial and continuing training for school counseling in the state technical schools of São Paulo, Brazil

Publication . Constantino, Paulo; Camargo Filho, Jorge Geraldo de; Henriques, Susana

The article discusses the initial and continuing education of professionals who carry out school counseling in the State Technical Schools of São Paulo, Brazil [Etecs], considering data highlighted by 169 individuals consulted in the year 2020, analyzing the scenario of the school units linked to the Paula Souza State Center for Technological Education. Based on survey-type field research combined with official documents, the data obtained is relevant for an examination of the insertion and training for school counseling in basic and technical vocational education at the secondary level, identifying gaps, persistency, correspondences with specialized literature, providing relevant considerations for reflection on practices, policies, and the management of vocational education.

Enterprise architecture in a collaborative laboratory

Publication . Orrico, Bruno Miguel Trindade Velhinho; São Mamede, Henrique

This research explores the alignment between organizational, information systems and technological architecture within a Collaborative Laboratory, using Enterprise Architecture as a guiding framework. The study focuses on identifying misalignments in the current architecture of the collaborative laboratory and proposing a future architecture that promotes greater integration, efficiency and alignment. The Action Research methodology was used to ensure a practical, real-world application of EA principles. A systematic literature review was conducted to support the identification of challenges and best practices in Enterprise Architecture, addressing key research questions such as the benefits of EA in organizational, information systems and technological domains. The causes and consequences of misalignments were also analysed to guide the formulation of proposed solutions. By applying the Architecture Development Method (ADM) of The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF), this study creates a clear roadmap for the transformation of CoLab architecture. The research offers valuable insights into how EA can optimize resource management, reduce process redundancies and promote innovation in a collaborative environment. Finally, this work contributes to both the theory and practical application of EA in aligning business and technology strategies within similar research and innovation-driven organizations.

Enhancing recruitment with LLMs and chatbots

Publication . Novais, Liliana; Rocio, Vitor; Morais, A. Jorge

Traditional approaches in the competitive recruitment landscape frequently encounter difficulties in effectively identifying exceptional applicants, resulting in delays, increased expenses, and biases. This study proposes the utilisation of contemporary technologies such as Large Language Models (LLMs) and chatbots to automate the process of resume screening, thereby diminishing prejudices and enhancing communication between recruiters and candidates. Algorithms based on LLM can greatly transform the process of screening by improving both its speed and accuracy. By integrating chatbots, it becomes possible to have personalised interactions with candidates and streamline the process of scheduling interviews. This strategy accelerates the hiring process while maintaining principles of justice and ethics. Its objective is to improve algorithms and procedures to meet changing requirements and enhance the competitive advantage of talent acquisition within organisations.
