TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the teachers formation, favouring the theoretical dimension, is distant from the practice; enduring the theory-practice relation, makes it difficult, when not impossible to the teachers, the improve the capacity of reflecting upon their own participation in the process to, continuously and progressively, transform it.
Abstract: It is the school’s duty to suggest new ways of producing and distributing knowledge oriented to new ways of understanding and acting in the world, leading to the development of an educational practice that deals with social practice. However, the teachers formation, favouring the theoretical dimension, is distant from the practice; enduring the theory-practice relation, makes it difficult, when not impossible to the teachers, the improve the capacity of reflecting upon their own participation in the process to, continuously and progressively, transform it. Therefore, it is necessary to promote a critical educational process, which not only allows the perfect relation between theory and educational practice but also overcomes the simple transmission of knowledge.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify competitive strategies adopted by small firms and identify four types of competitive strategies in accordance with the Miles and Snow's (1978) model of the competitive strategies.
Abstract: The objective of this paper was to identify competitive strategies adopted by small firms. Miles and Snow's (1978) model of competitive strategies was used to classify reported strategic choices. Data were collected with 107 enterprises in the city of Londrina, PR, Brazil, belonging to 8 different business sectors. Results indicated that 4 types of competitive strategies were found in accordance with Miles and Snow's (1978) model. Companies' performance differed according to competitive strategies, that is, reactors were less effective in terms of growth, thus confirming one of the main model's propositions. The most frequent strategy was analytical. No differences were found that could be attributed to manager's gender.

TL;DR: This review presents the current knowledge regarding the senecavirus infection and disease, especially in the last two years, and focuses on the need for complete evolutionary, epidemiological and pathogenic data and the capability for an immediate diagnosis of senecvirus infection.
Abstract: Senecavirus A (SVA) is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus that belongs to the Senecavirus genus within the Picornaviridae family. The virus has been silently circulating in pig herds of the USA since 1988. However, cases of senecavirus-associated vesicular disease were reported in Canada in 2007 and in the USA in 2012. Since late 2014 and early 2015, an increasing number of senecavirus outbreaks have been reported in pigs in different producing categories, with this virus being detected in Brazil, China, and Thailand. Considering the novel available data on senecavirus infection and disease, 2015 may be a divisor in the epidemiology of the virus. Among the aspects that reinforce this hypothesis are the geographical distribution of the virus, the affected pig-producing categories, clinical signs associated with the infection, and disease severity. This review presents the current knowledge regarding the senecavirus infection and disease, especially in the last two years. Senecavirus epidemiology, pathogenic potential, host immunological response, diagnosis, and prophylaxis and control measures are addressed. Perspectives are focused on the need for complete evolutionary, epidemiological and pathogenic data and the capability for an immediate diagnosis of senecavirus infection. The health risks inherent in the swine industry cannot be neglected.
