Subject: This work presents an analysis of OCESP System problem in order to structure a business intelligence area. OCESP is an entity that represents São Paulo cooperatives. Application: A survey was conducted with internal and external stakeholders to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. After that, it was possible to elaborate an action plan to solve the problem identified. The plan implementation considered a new portfolio of products for the business intelligence area. Impact: The introduction of the business intelligence area allowed the internal areas of the OCESP System to obtain data and information to support daily operations and contribute to the decision-making process. Cooperatives had access to the content that knowledge-deepen in their fields. Although the OCB System operates nationwide most of the data was related to São Paulo state, however, it will be possible to replicate it, since the OCB System has national operations, the published products may contribute information to cooperatives and state units in other states. Innovation: The solutions adopted occurred in organizational, product, and process and through the strategy of jointly dealing with the themes of cooperativism and market intelligence, which is still little explored by the Brazilian cooperative system and by business literature. Complexity: The complexity was in the organization of the proposed solution to the problem presented in this work, taking into account the specificities of cooperativism and at the same time acting in the market competing with mercantile companies. Among the facilities is the support of the OCESP System in the implantation of the market intelligence nucleus and relationship with the other areas with the new structure and as for the difficulties, there is, mainly, the data culture as a challenge to be overcome. Applied Methodology: Based on the methodology for practical and applied research by Marcondes, Miguel, Franklin and Perez (2017), it was conducted surveys and interviews with employees, managers and clients of the OCESP System.

The school is a space dedicated to the development of learning skills and socialization repertoires of children and adolescents in order to support them in the development of skills to deal with future experiences. In Brazil, the documents that parameterize education leave implicit how these skills should be developed together with curricular contents. One of teacher's challenges in the classroom is the development of appropriate strategies for stimulating cognitive and behavioral skills in the students. Studies have shown that interventions applied in the classroom context can stimulate cognitive and behavioral repertoire suitable for learning. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of the behavioral stimulation and attentional skills intervention, as well social skills and adaptive functioning in the academic performance. The sample consisted of 64 children aged 6 to 12 years old, attending the 2nd and 4th year of elementary school of Integral Education Center (CIS) in Curitiba/PR and the respective professors. The classes were divided by drawing in experimental groups (GE) and control group (CG). The data collection instruments were Child Behavior Checklist for ages 6-18 (CBCL / 6-18), Teacher's Report Form for ages 06 - 18 (FRR / 6-18), Guidance Behavioral Management for Children and Adolescents with signs of inattention and hyperactivity, a checklist to control the application of the student’s guide and academic performance registration on quarterly tests (bulletin). The results pointed out that the intervention for behavior management in the context of the classroom brought benefits to both experimental groups, given that the 2nd year group had better results than the group of 4th year, considering the improvement shown on the scales of the TRF Academic Performance, Working capacity, Behavior, Learning and Happiness, and the increase in the percentage of note "A" and reduction in the percentage of notes B and C in the subjects evaluated. In the home environment the parents report not confirmed the same level of improvement in adaptive functioning indicators. It is concluded that the intervention was effective in the increase of adaptive behavior and academic performance of students, especially according with teacher reports.

The objective of this study was to identify, according to the perception of the collaborators of the Financial Institution, which are the most important factors and those most prone to risk in the tax activity. Thus, a case study was carried out in a Financial Institution that is present in 18 countries, besides Brazil, with activities of commercial bank and operations of institutional clients, investment bank, wholesale and private banking. The exploratory research with a qualitative and quantitative approach was carried out with a two-step survey: in the first stage a survey of fiscal risks was carried out, through an open question, addressed to employees directly involved in the tax process; In the second stage specific questions were elaborated, using the Likert scale, to measure the factors pointed out in the first stage. A total of 159 employees were consulted, of which 105 (66%) contributed to the survey, allowing the production of knowledge and the possibility of identifying the risk factors in which the Financial Institution may be exposed. The main results revealed that adherence to legislation, control and knowledge of accounting, taxes and fiscal processes, besides the availability of accounting information, support data and management are the most risk factors. These risks are represented by loss in the quality of tax information from its origin and may represent financial and operational losses. The study allowed the creation of an applied model of tax risk management, focusing on Control and Management, Fiscal Strategy, Information, People, Processes and Technology.

Generally speaking the tattoo is not a practice recognized as belonging to the artistic context, however, its characteristics and behavior of its materials as well as its support enable to relate its process with the process art. Each tattoo should be developed for a particular part of a particular person's body. Therefore, the process becomes specific and dependent on the properties of this body. External factors such as incidence of the sun, scars and artificial light on the tattooed area, as well as internal factors such as metabolism, cell regeneration etc. affect the tattoo constantly. Thus, it can be said that the tattoo is an ongoing process that undergoes changes until the complete destruction of its support, the skin. Reflecting on the tattoo as an open process, this research allows the establishment of relations between the tattoo process and process art. Thus two outstanding points will be developed: (i) moments in which contemporary artists and bioartistas used tattoos on his works and processes will be mapped; (Ii) by recording a theoretical and practical work called biotattoos the tattoo process will be shown and described. The biotattoos are abstract images chosen by the tattoo artist and adapted to fit a given region of the body of a specific person. These are tattoos designed to incorporate variables and changes in their structures during the procedure. The practical step allows to focus on the tattoo not as a finished object finalized in the skin, but rather in all its process.

This research aims to analyze a religious discourse, more precisely the sermon "The Talhas de Caná", given by the English Reverend Charles Haddon Spurgeon of the British Baptist Church, to his faithful, based on the verse of the biblical text of the Gospel of John, chapter 2, verse 7: "Jesus said to them, Fill the jars with water. And they filled them completely." We did the analysis of this religious discourse, based on the foundations of discursive semantics, just as it is understood by discursive semiotics. After contextualizing and defining the nature and context of our object of study and highlighting the objectives and justification of the work, we present the theoretical foundations. In this sense, we deal with discursive semantics and syntax, dealing with the figurative and thematic structure of narratives and their enunciative construction. We did the analysis of C H Spurgeon's sermon in two chapters. In the first, we focus on the different figurative paths that structure the text and we did the corresponding thematic reading that is transmitted by them. The text was predominantly figurative. The narrator highlighted, initially, figurative paths whose themes can be defined as complementary to what the sermon effectively proposes. Next, the text specifically thematizes the meaning of order in this passage of the Gospel of John: "Jesus said to them, Fill the jairs with water. And they filled them completely. " With regard to the enunciative projections, the enunciation is highlighted in the analysis. The narrator speaks in the first person and challenges his recipient for you, creating the effects of informality and proximity to your audience. In several passages, one has the impression that he is talking to his interlocutors. This proximity effect is consistent with the figurative features of the text, as they often evoke examples and comparisons of a person's daily life. We conclude the work with the final considerations, in which we give evidence to the central points of our study.

The present study intends to analyze the intertextuality established between the superhero Superman, created by Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel and the super-hero Overman, created by the Brazilian cartoonist Laerte. Overman was chosen for the analysis of intertextuality with Superman because he is the first "over" superhero whereas Superman was the first "super"; and also because he makes an opposition between an idealized hero in a rich country, the United States, and another idealized one in a developing country, Brazil, presenting, this way, the construction of different realities. From concepts by Mikhail Bakhtin and Linda Hutcheon, the carnivalization and the parody present in the texts are discussed. A comparative analyzis is done to establish the equalities and differences between the texts and the analise purpose is to present the criticism proposed by carnavalization. The Brazilian cartoonist dialogues with Superman, when he creates a superhero whose physical appearance reminds the American hero, this way the original text is mentioned and the intertextuality is established. The aim; however, is not to confirm the mentioned text, but to alter it with the intention of provoking the laughter. Once Overman was built with an antagonistic world view if compared to Superman, he dessacralizes the hero model that had been proposed. As it is possible to perceive, Overman is a carnivalized image of Superman; having been created in a different situation and in a different socioeconomic context, he establishes a parody of Superman wich, besides presenting satirical components, also becomes a homage.

This research seeks to analyze the process of urbanization of precarious settlements, which involve policies, plans and projects, in the face of the dynamics of irregular occupations in watershed areas. The research contributes to the understanding of the urban and environmental policies that affect the Billings basin in its stretch located in the city of São Paulo, highlighting the Billings Specific Law (State Law No. 13.579/2009), Mananciais Program, Strategic Master Plan (Municipal Law No. 16.050/2014) and Land Installment Use and Occupation Law (Municipal Law No. 16.402/2016). In addition, we seek to analyze the convergence of municipal and state urban instruments, as well as the sanitation and urbanization program of this area for the establishment of an urban and environmental requalification for the precarious settlements. Based on the case study of Cidade Júlia, a region defined as an Environmental Recovery Area 1 (ARA 1) and that was the object of an urbanization project by the Mananciais Program, we seek to understand the advances and challenges facing the urban dynamics of this place, especially considering the fact that the actions taken in these spaces minimize the progress of irregular occupations in search of more sustainable ways of living with the environment.

The present thesis aimed to analyze how environmental citizenship models the State, notably a State of Environmental Law that emerged in Brazil, with emphasis on citizen participation in the management of conservation units. This may resignify the very relationship of humans to nature. In this context, the study of extractive reserves, a unit of conservation of sustainable use, was taken as a reference, when analyzing its management, to demonstrate the challenges of consolidating democratic practices identified in its deliberative councils. The analysis of the evolution of the relation between the human being and the nature is fundamental to understand a paradigm change in the appropriation of the nature resulting from an irreparable fault in the form of its exploration. In contextualizing this discussion, it was initially observed the formation of the State and its development, considering the very evolution of citizenship, from the perspective of the colonization of Brazil. The study of the development and trajectory of citizenship was carried out in order to understand the issue of social participation, the struggle and conquest for rights throughout history, including considering the evolution of citizenship from the Brazilian reality. The study made it possible to verify the importance of environmental education in citizen training and awareness of environmental duties and rights, including the historical formation of an environmental justice understanding through the participation of social groups, creation and formation of public policies to better involve civil society and the need for historical analysis of traditional populations and communities, considering their cultural identity, relations with nature, their own economy and specific relations regarding the territory they occupy and with society in general. Thus, it was important to verify the evolution of the legislation regarding policies to protect traditional communities, guarantee their rights and strengthen their participation in environmental issues, analyzing the difficulties specifically faced by extractive reserves, participation in their management and deliberative councils, considering its historical constitution, involvement of traditional communities, understanding of its legal process of creation. The research methodology considered consultation with the ICMBio through electronic means, which was frustrated by the lack of response, against the principle of information, with prediction in both constitutional, infraconstitutional and international agreements. In the absence of information, another analysis is carried out in graphs available in the reports of institutes regularly created to regulate extractive reserves, allowing the evaluation of citizen participation, from the processes of creation of extractive reserves to the implementation of the co-management through its deliberative councils and execution of management plans, identifying democratic practices that comply with the principles and objectives of a State of Environmental Law based on citizen participation. Even though deliberative councils and management plans are highlighted, their implementation does not occur in the same proportion, making it difficult to identify advances in the implementation of extractive reserves, although the participation of the traditional population in the extractive reserves has followed a path of relation between human beings and nature and affirmation of environmental citizenship, especially regarding the management of the conservation unit.
