A Educação, Sociedade & Culturas (ESC) é uma revista académica com arbitragem científica, publicada pelo Centro de Investigação e Intervenção Educativas (CIIE) da Universidade do Porto.

A ESC tem como finalidade contribuir para o desenvolvimento das ciências da educação, ajudando a estabelecer e a aprofundar o diálogo entre culturas e olhares disciplinares e contribuindo para qualificar o debate público sobre os problemas educativos e sociais. Mais especificamente, a ESC pretende:

a) divulgar conhecimento produzido por investigadores e investigadoras que trabalham nos campos das ciências da educação e das ciências sociais e humanas e que foca a educação/formação na sua relação com os problemas sociais;
b) proporcionar um espaço de debate de ideias em torno de problemáticas educativas relacionadas com exclusão, desigualdade e injustiça social;
c) promover uma análise crítica das políticas e das práticas realizadas, formal e informalmente, no campo socioeducativo; e
d) constituir-se como uma plataforma de internacionalização da investigação em educação.

A ESC organiza-se, em geral, em quatro secções: Artigos Científicos congruentes com as linhas orientadoras da revista, podendo ser, em parte, ocupada por um dossier temático; Diálogos Sobre o Vivido, artigo baseado num tema de actualidade na área da educação assente preferencialmente em trajectórias e experiências relevantes; Arquivo, texto cujo conteúdo se tenha revelado fundamental para a reflexão nas áreas em referência; Recensões de livros publicados cujo teor abarque problemáticas no campo da educação

A revista ESC está sedeada em Portugal, mas são bem-vindas colaborações de qualquer parte do mundo que promovam o debate académico e o avanço do conhecimento científico no campo educativo.

Os artigos devem constituir pesquisas originais que se coadunem com a missão e escopo da ESC. Devem ser também teoricamente informados e metodologicamente sustentados e relevantes para um público internacional.

A ESC é agora multilingue, aceitando e publicando artigos em português, inglês, francês e espanhol.

Todos os artigos de investigação publicados na revista ESC passam por um rigoroso processo de peer review. Cada artigo é sujeito a um escrutínio inicial por parte da direção da Revista e, se considerado adequado para a ESC, é encaminhado para avaliação por pelo menos dois/duas especialistas conceituados/as na área em que o texto se enquadra. Neste processo é assegurado o anonimato de autores/as e avaliadores/as (double-blind peer review).

The Portuguese Society for the Study of Birds is a non­-governmental non-­profit environment organization that promotes the study and conservation of birds and their habitats in Portugal, funded in 1993. It is the Portuguese member of BirdLife International.

Project 1: SPEA’s Marine Conservation Department

The volunteer will be integrated in the Marine Terrestrial Department and will be mostly involved in in the new project “Life Ilhas Barreira”, coordinated by SPEA. Intervention area (and field work) is in the south of Portugal (Ria Formosa Natural Park, Algarve), and office activities will be mostly done in Lisbon, at SPEA’s headquarters. The project can include a variety of tasks:

– Seabird census at sea
– Support in capture-manipulation-ringing-release of seabirds (e.g. Audouin’s Gull, yellow-legged gull, little tern)
– Seagull monitoring and counting in fishing ports and landfills
– Coastal inspections to detect dead birds
– Mapping native and invasive plants, and removal of invasive plants
– Mapping, capture-marking- realease (including camera-trapping) of introduced mammals – cats and rodents
– Support to raising awareness actions for the general public
– Support to the production of os raising awareness resources and reports
– Work with databasis: insertion of data, processing of photos from camera-traps
– Possibility of collaboration in other activities (ex. birdwatching training) and projects
– Possibility of developing a personal project.

» Project 2: SPEA’s Terrestrial Conservation Department

The volunteer will be integrated in the Terrestrial Conservation Department, collaborating in several projects (e.g. Impacto f Powerlines in Birds, Impacto f Agroenvironmental Measures in Biodiversity of Farmlands, etc) with a diversity of tasks including:
– Field work (in several regions of Portugal) : bird surveys/census; prospection of birds under powerlines, etc
– Office work (based in Lisbon – SPEA’s headquarters): database input; data analysis (with Excel, GIS software, etc); etc
– Support in events for the public: (ex. activities for schools, birdwatching days, nature fairs and festivals)
– Possibility of collaboration in other activities (ex. birdwatching training) and projects
– Possibility of developing a personal project.

SPEA intends to support the volunteers to create their own events or initiatives, in accordance with their principles and upon Board’s approval.

What is ESP, and ESC on a car?

Since 2014, every new car in Europe has been fitted with Electronic Stability Control – but what is ESC, and what is ESP for that matter?

ESC (or ESP) is known for being one of, if not the, best modern safety feature for motorists. In terms of how well it is regarded, it has seatbelts and airbags to compete with, but apart from that Electronic Stability Control is in a league of its own. However, while airbags and seatbelts step in when things have gone properly wrong, ESC works behind the scenes to make sure the worst doesn’t happen in the first place.

In the interest of being thorough, ESC stands for Electronic Stability Control and ESP stands for Electronic Stability Programme. They are one and the same, and even though two names for the same thing seems unnecessary, research has proven that the systems do help keep motorists safe. UK statistics suggest that drivers reduce their chances of being in a fatal accident by 25 per cent by using an ESP equipped car. But our scandinavian neighbours in Sweden have gone one further, and claimed that drivers of ESP equipped cars are 32 per cent less likely to be involved in a fatal crash when driving in poor weather conditions

While crashing is not the cheeriest of thoughts, Electronic Stability Control clearly works. The powers that be in Europe agree, as all new cars sold since 2014 have had to have the ESP tech fitted.

How do ESP and ESC work?

With new cars having such a massive range of electrical systems – each with its own indecipherable acronym – it is not in the least surprising that many people get confused. In this case the situation is not helped by the fact that a variety of acronyms are used to mean the same thing – depending on which manufacturer you’re talking to.

So ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) is variously known as ESC (Electronic Stability Control), VSC (Vehicle Stability Control), VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) or DSC (Dynamic Stability Control). Some carmakers use their own in-house ‘brands’ to promote ESP too, so you might come across Volvo’s DSTC (Dynamic Stability and Traction Control) or Porsche’s PSM (Porsche Stability Management), for example. So now we’ve cleared that up, let’s take a look at how ESP works.

Adding a third dimension to ABS and Traction Control

Before you can have ESP, first you need ABS (Antilock Braking System) and TCS (Traction Control System). In their simplest form, these two systems work to keep the car under control when slowing down (ABS) or accelerating (TC), so are basically intervening in your car’s longitudinal dynamics.

ESP adds an extra dimension, as it intervenes in the lateral plane, working to correct unwanted sideways motion that could otherwise result in serious understeer or oversteer, and preventing lateral skids. At least up to a point, as statistics suggest ESP can only avert 80 percent of skidding incidents, although with skidding involved in 40 percent of fatalities on the road, it’s easy to see why ESP so improves outcomes. Even so, it’s worth keeping Scotty of the USS Enterprise’s words in mind: ‘Ye cannae change the laws of physics!’

Extra stability while cornering with ESC

As ESP provides an extra layer of safety on top of ABS and TCS, you won’t be surprised to learn it uses much of the hardware from those systems to operate.

Using sensors to measure the speed of individual wheels, as well as information from lateral acceleration sensors and yaw-rate sensors, the ESP control unit is constantly monitoring the car’s sideways movements and relating them to the degree of steering wheel inputs.

If and when the car doesn’t respond to a steering input as expected – or if a steering or acceleration input is itself so great it begins to unsettle the car – then the ESP will brake wheels individually in an attempt to steer the car safely along the line the driver intended.

Added benefits of ESC

Because ESC is able to brake the car’s wheels independently of the pedal being applied, it opens the door to various other safety technologies. These include Brake Assist, where braking distances are reduced if the car senses the driver isn't braking as hard as they might in an emergency situation, and Hill Hold Control. The latter works by keeping the brakes on for a couple of seconds after the brake pedal is released during a hill start, thus stopping the car from rolling back.

Commercial vehicles fitted with ESC can have additional sensors that measure load weight and position, and adapt the ESC responses accordingly. This maximises the stabilising effect of ESC interventions however a vehicle is loaded, and ESC responses can even adjust ‘mid-incident’, should a load shift during cornering or braking.

ESP also provides a cheap and efficient tyre pressure monitoring system. Because it measures individual wheel speeds, ESP can tell if a tyre is losing pressure as it will affect the rotation speed of that wheel only.
