(UF-RJ) -Five years ago, intent on studying

firsthand the strengths and weaknesses of

computers as amplifiers for learning, my colleague

Ann Marion and I, in collaboration with the Open

School Center for Individualization. in Los Angeles.

sei up a research project called the Apple Vivarium

Program. We and the principal. Roberta Blatt,

were not trying to improve the already excellent

school by introducing technology. We were trying

to better understand the value computers might

have as supporting media.

We particularly wanted to investigate how children

can be helped to understand that animals, people

and situations are parts of larger systems that

influence one another. We therefore focused much

of our work on the study of biology and ecology.

Studies of the design and functioning of large

cities also give children an awareness of such

complexity .

TEXTO

(UF-RJ) -Only a decade or so ago, patients

scheduled for even minor surgery had to stay in

the hospital at least overnight. But today, thanks

to advances in modern medicine and attempts

to curtail runaway medical costs, many patients

who need a wide variety of operations are candi-

dates for one-day surgery (also called ambulato-

ry, same-day, or out-patient surgery).

Procedures done on an ambulatory basis

usually take two hours or less, involve minimal

blood loss and a short recovery time, and require

only oral medications to contraI postoperative

pain. Healthy, low-risk people are best suited

for outpatient operations.

As a feminist in a family with Victorian mores

and as a Jew arid free-thinker in Mussolini's

Italy, Rita Leyi-Montalcini has encountered

various forms of oppression many times in her

life. Yet the neurobiologist, whose tenacity and

preciseness are immediately apparent in her

light, steel-blue eyes and elegant black-and-white

attire, embraces the forces that shaped her. "If

I had not been discriminated against or had

not suffered persecution, I would never have

received the Nobel Prize," she declares.

Poised on the edge of a couch in her

apartment in Rome that she shares with her

twin sister, Paola, Levi-Montalcini recalls the

long, determined struggle that culminated in

joining the small group of women Nobelists in

1986. She won the prize for elucidating a

substance essential to the survival of nerve

cells. Her discovery of nerve growth factor led

to a new understanding of the development

and differentiation of the nervous system.

Today it and other similar factors are the

subject of intense investigation because of their

potential to revive damaged neurons, especially

those harmed in such diseases as Alzheimers.

43 A que Rita Levi-Montalcini atribui seu sucesso?

44 Por que ela recebeu o Prêmio Nobel?

45 Qual a relação da pesquisa de Rita Levi-Mon-

talcini com a doença de Alzheimer?

BACK TO THE FUTURE

Is time traveI possible? Commonsense

tells us it is not. Time machines, surely, are

simply the stuff of science fiction. But scien-

tists from California to Moscow are now

seriously investigating the possibility.

Their startling finding is that the laws of

physics do allow for the existence of time ma-

chines -but there is no prospect of a human

being using one to go back and change the past.

If their investigations sound like something

out of science fiction, it is hardly surprising.

The saga began when astronomer Carl Sagan

decided to write a science fiction novel. Seeking a

purely fictional device to transport his characters

across the Universe, he asked a mathematician

friend, John Wheeler, to suggest some imitation

science, pretending to be based on Einstein's

theory of relativity, with which to impress his

readers.

To their surprise, when Wheeler and his

colleagues looked closely at the relevant

equations they found imitations unnecessary.

According to Einstein's theory, "tunnels" through

both space and time really might exist
