Highlighted Theme
Smart University
The societies of our time are aware that education, training, research, innovation and entrepreneurship, the main goals of the university, are the strongest foundations of their cultural, social and economic progress, and the basis for the construction of their future. Therefore, the best that can be made to achieve prosperity is the endowment investment in education and training, which opens the doors of the future and brings greater economic, social and human benefits. The concept of Smart University, which follows the line of the more consolidated Smart City, pursues that the use of technology must be supported on two pillars: sustainability and participation. This guides to create more habitable and environmentally friendly campuses, in which the participation of university students in the teaching/learning and research processes, as well as the management and habitability of their campuses, be ruled by principles of transparency and good governance. Here are some of the dimensions of research and development for a university to become Smart University:
- Smart People.
- Smart Environment.
- Smart Campus.
- Smart Mobility.
- Smart Economy.
- Smart Technology.
- Smart Energy.
- Smart Living.
- Smart Government.

O re-inventar da inclusão: Os desafios da diferença no processo de ensinar e aprender
Author: Sílvia Ester Orrú
ISBN: 978-85-326-5331-4
Publisher: Editora Vozes (Brazil)
Education is a fundamental right of the citizen. To safeguard this right, laws were made for students with disabilities to have access and retention in schools. In this movement it received the name of inclusion. However, despite the established laws, many students experience a pseudo inclusion, since, although they have physical access to the school, the treatment promotes the feeling of non-existent group membership. This book aims to present the concept of “minor inclusion” inspired by the readings of “Kafka, for a minor literature” by Deleuze and Guattari. Interviews were conducted with a school principal and with a teacher, as well as a conversation circle with a first-year children’s class. They also interviewed a judge and a former detainee, a Syrian immigrant, a woman with multiple sclerosis, a girl with Down syndrome and the mother of a child with autism. As a result, experiments were presented that demonstrate inclusion as part of the educational philosophy and the life of the school and social community of those involved. Finally, the minor inclusion is conceptualized as the one that occurs in the difference that is different and without the legal imposition as its motivation.
