Starting with the creation of the early technical schools before the First Wold War and finishing with John Patten’s policies as Secretary of State for Education in 1993, Sanderson examines the development of the technical school sector and the factors which weakened it and led to its demise. The book argues that the neglect of technical schools has resulted in poor levels of skill formation and industrial performance in Britain, especially since the Second World War.

Einige berufliche Schulen in Hessen durchlaufen zurzeit das Pilotprojekt SV+ oder haben inzwischen den Weg zur 'selbstandigen beruflichen Schule' (SBS) gefunden. Diese Schulen haben zwar eine gewisse Budgethoheit (auch als groes Schulbudget bekannt), die Finanzierungsquellen bleiben aber, wie bei der herkommlichen nicht-selbstandigen Schule, der Landeshaushalt und der Haushalt der kommunalen Schultrager. Im Rahmen einer groeren Selbstverantwortung und des Einsparungsdrucks der offentlichen Hand aber auch neuer Anforderungen, werden die zukunftigen selbstandigen beruflichen Schulen jedoch langfristig andere und neue Finanzierungswege finden mussen. In Wisconsin, dem langjahrigen Partnerland des Bundeslandes Hessen in Bildungsfragen, hat sich mit den Technical Colleges bereits seit langem die selbstandige berufliche Schule mit einem komplexen System der Mischfinanzierung etabliert. Diese Studie soll dieses System darstellen und die Moglichkeiten, Chancen und Gefahren einer Ubernahme fur das Land Hessen betrachten und bewerten.

An electrochemical sensor composed of conductive metal-organic framework [Ni.sub.3(HITP).sub.2] and molecular imprinted polymers (MIP) is fabricated to detect dopamine. Ni.sub.3(HITP).sub.2 promotes electrons transfer due to the structure of in-plane charge delocalization and layered expansion conjugation. The combination of MIP with Ni.sub.3(HITP).sub.2 improves the selectivity and conductivity, exhibiting a wide detection range (0.06 ~ 200 µM) and a low detection limit (0.109 µM). The kinetic mechanism on the electrode surface is an adsorption controlled process, with the equal number of electrons and protons participating in oxidation in the electrocatalytic process of catechol converting to o-quinone.

The Public Technical Schools of the State of Sao Paulo (ETECs) have sought improvements aimed at the training of their students, through the analysis of data from their graduates who passed entrance exams, to support educational management in the development of educational strategies. The performance of these graduates can be analyzed using Educational Data Mining (MDE). The objective of this work was to identify and analyze the profile of public technical school graduates who passed entrance exams, using Educational Data Mining, to implement changes that support educational management in the development of educational strategies. ETEC Paulistano, the object of study in this work, has a student body made up of 95% of students from the Vila Brasilandia region, with 70% of them coming from the public school. A questionnaire was administered to graduates from classes from 2016 to 2018. Five steps was adapted from the phases of the Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) process were applied: Selection and Collection of Data; Data Pre-Processing; Educational Data Mining; Interpretation and Analysis of Discovered Knowledge and Implementation of Changes. The identification of the graduate's profile made it possible to implement changes based on the analysis of the questionnaire results, resulting in the creation of two new courses and the reduction of the daily workload of the courses from 8 to 6 hours, completed with the completion of an internship. It was then concluded that the MDE made it possible to implement changes, which supported educational management in the development of educational strategies. Keywords: Educational Data Mining.

As Escolas Tecnicas Publicas do Estado de Sao Paulo (ETECs) tem buscado melhorias direcionadas a formacao do seu discente, por meio da analise de dados de seus egressos aprovados em exames vestibulares, para apoiar a gestao educacional no desenvolvimento de estrategias educacionais. Pode-se analisar o desempenho destes egressos com a aplicacao da Mineracao de Dados Educacionais (MDE). O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar e analisar o perfil dos egressos de escola tecnica publica aprovados em vestibulares, com o uso da Mineracao de Dados Educacionais, para implementar mudancas, que apoiem a gestao educacional no desenvolvimento de estrategias educacionais. A ETEC Paulistano, objeto de estudo deste trabalho, conta com um corpo discente composto por 95% de alunos da regiao da Vila Brasilandia, sendo que 70% deles vem da escola publica. Foi aplicado um questionario para os egressos das turmas dos anos de 2016 a 2018. Cinco etapas adaptadas das fases do processo de Descoberta de Conhecimento em Bases de Dados (Knowledge Discovery in Databases--KDD) foram aplicadas: Selecao e Coleta dos Dados; Pre-Processamento dos Dados; Mineracao de Dados Educacionais; Interpretacao e Analise do Conhecimento Descoberto e Implementacao de Mudancas. A identificacao do perfil do egresso possibilitou implementar mudancas com base na analise dos resultados do questionario, resultando na criacao de dois novos cursos e na reducao da carga horaria diaria dos cursos de 8 para 6 horas, completada com a realizacao de estagio. Concluiu-se entao que, a MDE possibilitou implementar mudancas, que apoiaram a gestao educacional no desenvolvimento de estrategias educacionais. Palavras-chave: Mineracao de Dados Educacionais.

Se aplicaron cinco etapas adaptadas del proceso de descubrimiento de conocimientos en bases de datos: seleccion y recoleccion de datos; preprocesamiento de datos; mineria de datos educativa; interpretacion y analisis de conocimientos descubiertos; e implementacion de cambios. La identificacion del perfil de retorno permitio implementar cambios basados en el analisis de los resultados del cuestionario, lo que dio como resultado la creacion de dos nuevos cursos y la reduccion de la carga de trabajo diaria de los cursos de 8 a 6 horas, completados con la realizacion de pasantias. Se concluye que la ODE permitio implementar cambios que apoyaron la gestion educativa en el desarrollo de estrategias educativas. Palabras clave: Mineria de Datos Educativa. ETC. Perfil de Egressos.

Cell migration is an adaptive process that depends on and responds to physical and molecular triggers. Moving cells sense and respond to tissue mechanics and induce transient or permanent tissue modifications, including extracellular matrix stiffening, compression and deformation, protein unfolding, proteolytic remodelling and jamming transitions. Here we discuss how the bi-directional relationship of cell–tissue interactions (mechanoreciprocity) allows cells to change position and contributes to single-cell and collective movement, structural and molecular tissue organization, and cell fate decisions. Friedl and co-authors discuss how migrating cells sense and respond to tissue mechanics, and how cells in turn modify their surroundings.
