- Echinoidea from the Neogene of Portugal mainlandPublication . Pereira, PedroThe Portuguese Neogene echinoid fauna is reviewed in order to establish a taxonomically standardised echinoid database. 41 taxa, including one new genus and new species, from the Burdigalian and Middle Miocene of the Lower Tagus Basin and Middle Miocene of Algarve and two taxa from the Middle Pliocene of Mondego Basin are described. 25 taxa are reported for the first time from Portugal mainland, while 22 of the previously reported Miocene species were excluded (for different motives) from the accepted species list. The list of Miocene species includes three cidarids [Eucidaris zeamays (Sismonda, 1842), Prionocidaris avenionensis (des Moulins, 1837) e P. sismondai (Mayer in Hartung, 1864)], five camarodonts [Genocidaris catenata (Desor in Agassiz & Desor, 1846), Genocidaris sp., Monilechinus portucallensis nov. gen. nov. sp., Psammechinus dubius dubius (Agassiz, 1840), Schizechinus sp.), six cassiduloids (Pliolampas elegantula ? (Cotteau, 1883), Studeria sp., Hypsoclypus subpentagonalis (Gregory, 1891), Echinolampas (E.) barcinensis Lambert, 1906, Echinolampas (E.) hemisphaerica (Lamarck, 1816), Echinolampas (E.) schultzi Kroh, 2005], eleven clypeasteroids [Clypeaster altus (Leske, 1778), C. campanulatus (Schlotheim, 1820), C. latirostris Michelin, 1861, C. marginatus Lamarck, 1816, C. olisiponensis Michelin, 1861, Echinocyamus sp. 1, Echinocyamus sp. 2, Parascutella lusitanica (de Loriol, 1896), P. smithiana (Agassiz, 1841), Parmulechinus sp., Amphiope bioculata (des Moulins, 1837)], and sixteen spatangoids [Opissaster cotteri de Loriol, 1896, Schizaster eurynotus Sismonda, 1841, Schizaster ? sp. 1, Ova karreri (Laube, 1869), Agassizia algarbiensis Ferreira, 1962, A. zitteli Fuchs, 1883, Pericosmus latus (Desor in Agassiz & Desor, 1847), Pericosmus sp. 1, Plagiobrissus vel Rhabdobrissus sp., Brissopsis crescentica Wright, 1855, B. ottnangensis Hoernes, 1875, Schizobrissus sp., Spatangus delphinus Defrance, 1827, Echinocardium olisiponensis Kotchetoff et al., 1975, Hemipatagus ocellatus (Defrance, 1827), Lovenia sp.]. The list of Pliocene taxa includes only camarodonts (Camarodonta indet.) and one clypeasteroid [Echinocyamus pusillus ? (Müller, 1776)].
- “(…) é um rapaz cheio de sorte, digo-lhe já (risos)”: o humor como estratégia discursiva de mitigação do conflito (potencial) em interacções verbais na rádio”Publication . Almeida, Carla Aurélia deTaking as reference an oral corpus consisting of verbal interactions presented in Portuguese radio phone-in programmes, we proceed to the identification of the sequential dimensions of illocutionary acts and we study the selection, made by the participants, of the discourse strategies of humour which have laughs as a conversational resource for mitigation of potential conflict in interaction. We will analyze participant’s production of figures of enunciative distance like irony and humour in specific interaction sequences and we will verify the way these conversational devices contribute to the maintenance of the interactional order.

- Four decades of changing health systems in Southern Europe: a comparative analysis centered on the Portuguese casePublication . Jacquinet, Marc; Curado, Henrique; Gomes, Paulo Sérgio Machado Veloso; Caetano, João RelvãoHealthcare systems have undergone a wide and deep transformation that is only partly reflected in the growth of the per capita spending relative to GDP. Much more transformations are to be explained. Southern European countries are usually considered as a relatively homogeneous group with similar social trends in their health care system. Is it really so and to what extent? Are their more than three or four European models and are European societies – with regard to health policies and systems – converging? What are the specificities of Southern European countries? Our comparative analysis encompasses European countries from the EU and some other countries of the OECD. The data explored are the Health statistics from the OECD and country analysis and data. The Portuguese case serves as a yardstick to get a point of reference. Policy measures and trends will be compared. The results can be summarized at two or three levels: (1) the changes in demography with ageing population all over Europe, (2) the reorientations of health policies and (3) the new social practices around those health national systems. Some specificities of the different counties or group of countries are to be highlighted. The picture is one of complex change: neither a simple convergence nor clear divergences.
- Ambientes de aprendizagem aberta : bases para uma nova tendênciaPublication . Okada, Alexandra; Barros, Daniela Melaré VieiraOs formatos virtuais para o processo de ensino e aprendizagem tanto formal como informal passam por mudanças e a construção de designs didáticos para ambientes online tornando-se um desafio para o trabalho educacional. O problema de investigação da pesquisa em desenvolvimento que nos motiva a analisar esta temática está exatamente em propor reflexões sobre as novas bases para se pensar um ambiente virtual de aprendizagem sob a perspectiva da educação aberta e colaborativa convergida com possibilidades de interação e comunicação inovadoras. O objetivo está em apresentação de novas perspectivas de referenciais para inovar na construção de ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem abertos. Os procedimentos metodológicos utilizados são qualitativos e descritivos com base em teorias da educação colaborativa, aberta, o paradigma do virtual, os estilos de aprendizagem e aprendizagem situada. Os resultados preliminares do estudo em desenvolvimento destacam elementos de base para reflexão sobre a temática.
