Reabilitação de Edifícios devolutos para novos usos.
Publication . Silva Ferreira, Bruna Liliana; Gomes, João Nuno
Muitos edifícios total ou parcialmente devolutos permanecem nos centros históricos das cidades portuguesas, espaços que fizeram parte da memória
coletiva urbana e que hoje estão frequentemente abandonados e sem uso. Este relatório reflete sobre a importância da reabilitação destes edifícios como
estratégia de valorização urbana, social e patrimonial.
Através de uma abordagem teórica, análise de múltiplos casos de estudo e a apresentação de um projeto desenvolvido em contexto de estágio, defendese
que a reabilitação deve ir além da mera recuperação física. É fundamental respeitar a identidade do lugar, adaptando os edifícios a novos usos que
satisfaçam as necessidades contemporâneas sem apagar o passado.
O trabalho realizado pelo gabinete “MMPM arquitectos” centra-se na reabilitação do edifício Manuel Maria Moreira, em Aveiro, classificado como
Monumento de Interesse Público, convertendo-o de espaço comercial e habitacional para estabelecimento hoteleiro, preservando os seus elementos
históricos e incorporando soluções sustentáveis ligadas à minimização da intervenção estrutural.
Os resultados evidenciam o potencial da reabilitação como ferramenta de regeneração urbana, reforçando a importância de um planeamento cuidadoso
que harmonize património, inovação e inclusão social. Em suma, reabilitar é devolver vida aos edifícios e, com eles, às cidades e suas comunidades.
The Practice of Parametric and Participatory Design in the Creation of Visual Identities
Publication . Eliana Maria Durbeck de Almeida Sampaio; Quadros, Tomé
As part of the Master’s Degree in Communication Design at College of Arts and Design Matosinhos, this project arises from an interest in finding new means of creation in the field of graphic design.
With this in mind, this research project arises to explore the practice of parametric and participatory design in the creation of visual identities, something that reflects the role of the client and the public as active participants in this exercise.
The project seeks to answer the following research question: To what extent can the combination of Parametric and Participatory Design increase the potential of visual identities?
To answer these questions, a practice-based methodology was structured, initially focusing on theoretical and contextual research, as well as interviews with designers and creative coders in order to understand how this practice applies in real contexts. Subsequently, the creation of two web-accessible parametric tools, combined with user testing, allowed us to identify key elements and conclusions that consolidated the study of this practice.
The results suggest the potential of this approach in creating flexible visual identities, highlighting the role of the public as part of the graphic exploration of identity and, consequently, influencing the public’s perception of identity itself.
Nursing in tune: Evaluation of the effectiveness of podcasts as an educational tool for undergraduate students - A cross-sectional study
Publication . Firmino, Cristiana Furtado; Faria, Miguel Nuno; Frade, Fátima; Valentim, Olga; Longo, João
The use of information and communication systems in higher education, such as podcasts, as pedagogical tools, constitutes a strategy to support and motivate students to improve their learning. Thus, following the creation and development of podcasts by teachers aimed at students with a view to improving their skills and self-learning, this study aims to analyze the usability and suitability of podcasts as an educational support tool for students of the bachelor's degree in nursing and to understand how the podcasts developed can contribute to the learning process of these students.
An exploratory, observational and descriptive study design was chosen, of a quantitative nature with a convenience sample, consisting of 117 nursing students from a School of Health, using a self-completed questionnaire, including sociodemographic variables as well as the System Usability Scale. SPSS® version 28 was used for data analysis.
In general, nursing students rated the developed Podcast as excellent as a pedagogical tool in nursing education. They considered it very useful, easy to use and suitable for nursing education, using it frequently depending on the requirements and type of content.
Needs of women that experience pregnancy with an ostomy: A scoping review
Publication . Figueiredo, Sandra; Tereso, Alexandra
Background: The presence of intestinal elimination ostomies concomitant with pregnancy poses complex challenges for health professionals in providing antenatal care to these women and their families. In this context, identifying the specific needs of these pregnant women is crucial for effective care.
Aim: This scoping review aims to map the evidence on the needs of women with intestinal elimination ostomies during pregnancy.
Methods: This review was based on the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines. The search was carried out on the EBSCOhost platform using the MEDLINE Ultimate, CINAHL Ultimate, MedicLatina and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews databases and on the PubMed and SciELO platforms, with no time limits.
Findings: We identified 570 studies, 6 websites and one citation of which 16 were included. The selected records were published between the years 1957 and 2024. The results were categorised into four types which summarise the pregnant women's needs: daily life permeated by stoma care requirements, to be supported, challenges in assessing foetal well-being and having a plan.
Conclusions: Attending to the needs of these women requires health professionals with specific training and the involvement of a multidisciplinary team. Given the scarcity of articles identified and the publication dates, it is considered necessary to develop primary research addressing this issue.
Jornalismo de lifestyle: produção de conteúdos na revista Evasões
Publication . Duque, Mariana Inês Santos; Patrão,, Carla Susana Ribeiro, 1974-
Entre maio e agosto de 2025, realizou-se uma experiência profissional na Evasões, suplemento semanal do Jornal de Notícias dedicado ao jornalismo de lazer, turismo e gastronomia. Esta integração na redação permitiu articular o conhecimento teórico do Mestrado em Comunicação Social – Novos Media com a prática jornalística diária, promovendo uma escrita versátil que conjugou objetividade informativa e abordagem descritiva e sensorial, típica do jornalismo de lifestyle. A experiência consolidou competências de pesquisa e curadoria de informação, reforçou autonomia, rigor e ética profissional, e permitiu compreender as dinâmicas editoriais de um meio especializado, aprofundando o papel do jornalista enquanto mediador e narrador das indústrias culturais contemporâneas. A metodologia combinou uma abordagem empírica e qualitativa, sustentada na observação participante, favorecendo uma compreensão crítica das rotinas de redação e dos processos de produção jornalística.
