Scenarios Building from Strategic Design: exploratory study for value creation in a furniture company
type: item
description: The significant number of wood furniture companies in Brazil, mostly micro and small enterprises (MSEs), face obstacles that compromise their value and competitive potential. Thus, an opportunity arises to create more favorable conditions for innovation in these companies by incorporating strategic design as a resource for research and defining alternative scenarios focused on business models focused on socially responsible practices. This article presents the partial results of a master's research project, showing the analysis and proposal for a real-life case that addresses the challenges identified in the sector. The results describe two scenarios for Company A, developed based on strategic design processes and using tools such as the System Map, the Design Ladder, SWOT Analysis, and the Scenario-Driven Design Method. One of the solutions offered incremental improvements, while the other had more innovative characteristics that differed from current practices. The latter, structured based on the strategic design performance levels, was considered more promising for reaching a new level of competitiveness.

Design, fashion, and the reinvention of old clothes at Poppi's Thrift Store
type: item
description: Design plays an essential part in the establishment of consumer culture as a modern way of life. It is present in distribution and use stages. It encompasses spaces, products and experiences that promote the constant acquisition of new things. It plans the lifespan of products, through technical and symbolic specifications, as it is associated with fashion and trends. However, the unsustainability of this way of life causes changes in the field of design itself. This research investigates how design can contribute to the establishment of longer-lasting relationships with things with respect to sustainability. This qualitative, applied and explanatory study adopts bibliographic, documentary and field research. As a case, it analyzes the actions of designer Bianca Poppi, especially on social media: how she reinvents the making of fashion, from the production of garments to the promotion of an alternative way of life to excessive consumerism and disposal.

Residual pine cone composites to ecopads
type: item
description: In the pursuit of more sustainable products as temperatures rise, research and projects seek to mitigate the environmental impacts of consumption. Therefore, this research is based on experimentation and proposed uses for pine needles from Pinus trees, which are currently treated as waste by the forest sector, but which have great productive and commercial potential, in addition to being beneficial to nature, as they are a natural, biodegradable, and easily renewable material. Whole pine fiber was used as a binder for PU resin, which also has biodegradable properties and is a renewable source, for the production of composites, whose forms are subjected to testing and analysis to evaluate their productive and commercial potential. Considering the visual, physical, and olfactory aspects, the best composition was considered to provide alternatives for commercial use, leading this research to propose a decorative coating for indoor environments.

Science Communication and Science Education through podcasts: the case of IFFcast
type: item
description: The popularization of scientific knowledge is an important tool capable of endowing citizens with skills that allow for the analysis and evaluation of situations inherent in decision-making regarding political, social, scientific, environmental, and other issues. In this context, the IFFcast podcast program is born with the objective of democratizing knowledge that often remains restricted to the academic community, combating science misinformation, pseudosciences, and promoting scientific outreach. Since 2019, IFFcast has released 99 original and unpublished episodes on major streaming platforms of its genre. Therefore, this article aimed to profile listeners based on statistical metrics provided by the Anchor platform, responsible for distributing the episodes, mainly mapping age groups, thematic preferences, and gender diversity of the audience reached. The results show that there is gender parity in reach between men and women despite the majority of this format's audience being male. The most representative age group is composed of individuals between 28 and 34 years old. Although the promotion of new IFFcast episodes involves different strategies and social media, 55% of shares occur through the WhatsApp social network. Lastly, it is evident that podcasts are successful digital formats for scientific outreach, demonstrating a consolidated presence on streaming platforms of this genre, although numerous epistemological obstacles still need to be overcome.

Continuing education for teachers of Youth and Adult Education: a reflective analysis
type: item
description: Youth and Adult Education (EJA) in Brazil has been the subject of numerous academic discussions, particularly regarding how to effectively address the specific needs of this population—especially with the expansion of the modality into Professional and Technological Education (EPT). One of the most debated points is teacher education, due to the need to reshape pedagogical practices and knowledge, emphasizing the importance of continuing education for teachers, both in initial training and in the professional development of their students. In this context, this article analyzes the importance of teacher education for effective pedagogical practice within the EJA modalities: PROEJA and PROEJA FIC. The research adopted the method of systematic literature review, selecting four critical and reflective studies conducted in Brazilian educational institutions focused on EJA. The study concludes that teacher education for EJA, in its various forms, must be expanded to enhance pedagogical practice and better address the specific needs of this educational demand.

Internationalization Policies in Basic Education: Insertions in Teacher Education
type: item
description: This article discusses the process of the internationalization of education in Brazil, with an emphasis on teacher training. It examines how internationalization, initially focused on higher education, has also come to influence basic education through public policies and academic mobility programs such as Science Without Borders, Languages Without Borders, and initiatives developed in the United States, Canada, Ireland, and Mercosur. The discussion is grounded in the contributions of Thiesen (2017, 2019), Passoni, El Kadri, and Oliveira (2024), Damasceno and Bethônico (2020), as well as reflections based on decolonial perspectives from Mignolo (2005, 2017), highlighting developments during the period from 2020 to 2025. Through intersections with the legal framework, the National Common Curricular Base, and current programs, the paths taken, the political choices made, and the forms of international integration being prioritized are questioned, suggesting more inclusive and contextualized alternatives for teacher education.

An experiment with artisanal electroplating in authorial jewelry
type: item
description: This paper presents the results of an exploratory study that conducted an experiment on copper metallization through the artisanal electroplating process. This process was adopted to perform metal electrodeposition to coat organic elements to compose authorial jewelry. During the experimental phase, the possibilities of metallizing natural elements, such as shells, leaves, seeds, among others, were explored. The results of the experiment reveal that some natural elements are unsuitable because they are fragile and brittle; others are more viable because they have a rigid and resistant structure. Combining creativity and metallized natural elements can result in sustainable authorial jewelry.

Green hydrogen as a vector for energy decarbonization in Brazil
type: item
description: This paper assesses the potential of green hydrogen in Brazil from technical, economic, and regulatory perspectives, positioning it as a strategic element in the energy transition. It highlights the synergy between solar and wind renewable sources, whose complementarity ensures greater stability in power generation and improved efficiency in hydrogen production via electrolysis. Based on data from the Chafariz and Luzia Complexes, the analysis shows that integrated projects demonstrate high technical feasibility and a competitive Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH), estimated at US$ 2.70/kg. However, challenges remain, particularly the lack of a robust regulatory framework, which is essential to attract international investment and provide legal certainty. The recent enactment of Law No. 14,948/2024, which establishes the Legal Framework for Low-Carbon Hydrogen, marks a significant step forward, though it still requires complementary regulations for effective implementation. The study concludes that, with appropriate incentives and strategic partnerships, Brazil is well positioned to become a global leader in the green hydrogen market, contributing to energy decarbonization and sustainable development.

The aim is to present the outcomes from the collaborative construction of the organization's future projects. Using the case study method, the co-creation process developed with the club’s participants is described and analyzed, in which four design tools were applied. These tools required the active involvement of stakeholders in addressing the identified issue. The findings show that design, through the use of such tools, proved effective in helping structure the projects still under development. However, the study also revealed gaps between theory and practice, especially regarding the adjustments made throughout the process to incorporate discussions about productive autonomy and its significance for the women engaged in the initiative.

Motivations, impressions, and emotions: PUCPR's “Global Classes” internationalization program from the students’ point of view
type: item
description: With the search for internationalization processes in higher education, Brazilian universities have also begun incorporating programs that contribute to this learning. Based on this, this work sought to investigate the profile and perspective of students enrolled in the Global Classes disciplines provided by the PUCPR’s Internationalization in Home program, from a questionnaire answered by 97 students seeking to understand their motivations and emotions, through a bibliographic review. As a result, it was found that the participant's profile is composed of 70% of individuals who have already studied the language of the discipline, which favors emotions of confidence, calm, and enthusiasm about the language and content. However, there are still dysregulating emotions that can be motivated by the lack of monitors in the classroom, since 66.7% of students do not have this possibility. With this, it is concluded that the disciplines offer a favorable basis for integration and acquisition, together with the contents of the courses and the dynamics of each area. Still, it is perceived that this can be amplified since the construction of an emotionally adept person helps in self-regulation and the individual search of each student for acquisition.

For a critical internationalization of education: an analysis of the internationalization policy of the Federal Institute of Parana
type: item
description: Traditional models of internationalization in education have historically been shaped by institutions from the Global North, reproducing epistemological and cultural inequalities in academia under the endorsement of modern science. Resisting these patterns, this article aims to analyze the conceptions of internationalization underlying the internationalization policy of the Federal Institute of Paraná (IFPR), through a decolonial and critical perspective on education internationalization. In this context, the research proposes a reorientation of these processes based on border thinking and the valorization of Southern epistemologies, emphasizing the need to recognize marginalized knowledge and promote horizontal cooperation practices both locally and globally. The analysis reveals a concrete attempt by IFPR to challenge Eurocentric patterns by adopting the principle of reciprocity, fostering South-South partnerships, and developing a culture of comprehensive and home-based internationalization, among other aspects aimed at a more critical internationalization of education.

The Internationalization of Higher Education in the Brazilian context: challenges in constructing an autonomous, decolonial, and socially engaged national agenda
type: item
description: The Internationalization of Higher Education is a growing cultural and political movement in Brazil. Broadly understood as a process, product, and comprehensive mechanism of institutional management (Knight, 2004; Hudzik, 2015; De Wit, 2019), it encompasses issues of power, competitiveness, coloniality, politics, language, and multiculturalism, topics that remain insufficiently assimilated and studied, yet are crucial for this movement to foster positive and emancipatory social and institutional shifts within our Higher Education institutions (Finardi; Mendes; Silva, 2022; Santos; Chagas; Costa; Moraes-Filho, 2024; Chagas, 2024; Lourenço; Neres, 2024). In this article, we delve into these discussions with the aim of problematizing how the Internationalization of Higher Education has been perceived in the Brazilian context and through this analytical exercise, we intend to outline some of the key challenges that must be overcome in order to advance toward the development of a contemporary, autonomous, decolonial, and socially engaged agenda for this movement within the national context. We hope that the discussions presented herein may contribute to academic research in the field as well as to the formulation of public and institutional policies regarding the Internationalization of Higher Education in Brazil.

Perspective and Profile of the Professors from PUCPR's Internationalization Program “Global Classes”
type: item
description: This article explores the theme of internationalization at home, examining the profiles of professors in the Global Classes program, which offers classes in an additional language, at a university in southern Brazil. To achieve this, bibliographic and documentary research were conducted, followed by the development of a semi-structured online questionnaire, which was applied to professors in the program. Through the data collected, it was possible to assess how the program's implementation happened in the institution and to articulate that trajectory with the profile of the participant professors. It was noted that most are experienced professionals who are very interested in this area. However, plenty still do not feel secure and/or qualified to minister a class entirely in an additional language. This could be because of a lack of confidence in their linguistic and theoretical knowledge. Therefore, the importance of adopting a perspective that decentralizes the native speaker is highlighted. It is believed that it was possible to observe how the program proposed has been developed, expanding the research on internationalization in Higher Education.

Additive Manufacturing and Sustainability: analysis of 3D Printing Patents at INPI
type: item
description: 3D printing, one of the emerging technologies of Industry 4.0, stands out for its multiple applications and growing sustainability trends, including the use of new materials. This article aimed to analyze invention patents related to this technology in Brazil. To this end, the methodology consisted of classifying 115 applications in the INPI (National Institute of Industrial Property) database that contained the terms “3D printing” or “additive manufacturing” in the title. The results revealed a significant increase in patent applications in recent years, accompanied by a growing concern in the development of alternative materials that aim to reduce the environmental impact of production processes. Notably, 62% of the applications fall into category B, referring to processing and transportation operations. It is observed that the majority of applications are still from non-resident companies, while Brazilian patents are predominantly from universities, which highlights opportunities for establishing strategic partnerships and joint development of innovations in this field.

The Hinterlands and their news beginnings: João Alfaiate and the occupation process of the banks of the Itabapoana River in the 19th century
type: item
description: The northern hinterlands were the last regions of the Captaincy/Province of Rio de Janeiro to undergo the occupation and territorialization process, which only happened in the 19th century. Since the beginning of the century, there have been reports of a slow movement of occupation in the territory, which had been establishing forms of interaction with neighboring areas that were already in the integration process into the central power. The aim of this article is to understand the occupation and settlement of these areas through the agents who moved through and/or settled on those borders. To this end, the trial of “João Alfaiate” - a fugitive who sought shelter in the “Sertões do Itabapoana” as a way of escaping justice - was used to understand how these frontiers were seen and experienced by his contemporaries during the early 19th century.

Precocity and production of experimental and commercial strawberry genotypes in a recirculating semi-hydroponic system
type: item
description: The knowledge of the behavior and production of experimental cultivars and genotypes under conditions of medium altitude and higher air temperature is essential to expand strawberry productive areas and maintain traditional cultivation areas for greater food security in the face of climate change and sustainability of agroecosystems. Twelve genotypes were evaluated among cultivars and experimental hybrids with neutral and short days in a medium altitude region (475 m). The short-day genotypes FSCR105 and day-neutral Gaia are the earliest, while Monterey, Camiño Real, and Camarosa are the latest. The Gaya hybrid has a higher production than San Andreas and Albion, with the additional advantage of producing a greater quantity of fruits per plant in the warmer months of the year. Short-day cultivars Camarosa and Jônica and the hybrid Ceres maintain or even surpass production when compared to other genotypes with the same reaction to photoperiod in months with average maximum temperatures above 28 ºC. The stolon production of the genotypes is concentrated in the months of January to March.

Internationalization in education: a reflective analysis of the Extension Project “Science at the Border”: expanding the boundaries of knowledge
type: item
description: This article presents a reflective analysis of the experience carried out within the extension project “Science at the Border” (Soja et al., 2023), aiming to discuss its contributions to the promotion of interdisciplinary practices and the strengthening of internationalization in education. The research adopts a qualitative approach in order to identify the structural elements of the project's pedagogical proposal that highlight its formative potential. The developed reflection demonstrates that extension project initiatives grounded in interdisciplinarity not only foster the integration of teaching, research, and outreach, but also expand the possibilities for the internationalization of education by promoting dialogue among different cultures, forms of knowledge, and territories. In this sense, the relevance of university extension is reinforced as a tool for social transformation and civic education.

Letters of Freedom (1885-1888) and Resistance: Reflections for the Teaching of History in Technical and Vocational Education and Training
type: item
description: This article comes from research by the Postgraduate Program in Professional and Technological Education (ProfEPT) at IFFluminense, whose objective is to promote a study based on the letters of Freedom, documents from primary sources, located at the Documentation Center located in the Carangola/MG, at Bom Jesus do Itabapoana Campus, in order to contribute to the promotion of anti-racist education. The study methodology is based on bibliographical research, documentary research and field research. Based on an anti-racist education proposal, the investigation is materialized through a short course, structured in two distinct moments. The first focuses on the context from the occupation by the Lannes Family to the emancipation of Carangola, highlighting the historical facts related to the settlement of the region and slave relations. The second, through bibliographical research, classifies the Letters of Freedoom, in order to highlight the enslaved as subjects of the process, their forms of resistance and survival strategies. The results indicate that it is essential to present ethnic-racial issues from a different perspective, other than that of Europe, but capable of highlighting the cultural richness of African societies.

Experiencing Internationalization: learning and challenges in a teacher training program for Brazilian educators in Ireland
type: item
description: This work discusses the importance of internationalization in education, highlighting its historical presence in Brazil through exchanges and cooperation with European countries, based on the experience of the second group of teachers who participated in the professional development course in Leadership and Educational Management offered by Mary Immaculate College in Ireland between 2023 and 2024. The account of this successful experience illustrates the benefits and challenges of internationalization in both face-to-face and remote formats. The program, aimed at Basic Education professionals, was funded by CAPES and launched in 2019. In each of its three editions, the program included an online training and selection phase with 120 participants and a ten-month face-to-face training in Ireland for the thirty selected participants. Both the course and the experience of living in the country provided exposure to innovative pedagogical practices, debates, and reflections on cultural differences, and the development of English language skills, flexibility, and teamwork. The in-person experience allowed for deeper immersion, the building of bonds, and knowledge exchange, while the remote format offered greater accessibility and flexibility. It is concluded that both modalities are complementary and essential for professional development and the formation of communities of practice, which collectively strengthen Brazilian education through enriching international experiences.
