RESUMO
Os Jogos Escolares do Rio Grande do Sul (JERGS) são um evento esportivo promovido pela Secretaria da Educação do Rio Grande do Sul (SEDUC) que, no tempo atual, tem como público-alvo estudantes de escolas públicas do estado. As primeiras iniciativas para a criação dos JERGS ocorreram no ano de 1970, quando o Brasil perpassava pelo período político da Ditadura Militar (1964-1985). Na época, o evento era denominado Campeonato Estudantil Gaúcho (CEG). Sendo assim, esta pesquisa objetivou compreender que modelo esportivo pairava sobre a Educação Física durante a implementação do CEG no estado do Rio Grande do Sul na década de 1970. A partir de fontes analisadas, verificamos que os JERGS têm características e representações culturais inerentes à conjuntura política em que foi implantado.
The Jogos Escolares do Rio Grande do Sul (JERGS) are a sporting event promoted by the Secretaria da Educação do Rio Grande do Sul (SEDUC) which, at the present time, is aimed at students from public schools in the state. The first initiatives for the creation of JERGS took place in 1970, when Brazil was going through the political period of the Military Dictatorship (1964-1985). At the time, the event was called Campeonato Estudantil Gaúcho (CEG). Therefore, this research aimed to understand what sports model hovered over Physical Education during the implementation of the CEG in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in the 1970. From analyzed sources, we found that JERGS have characteristics and cultural representations inherent to the political situation in which they were implemented.

RESUMO
This study aimed to determine the age groups, breeds, and morphological characteristics of horses used in vaquejada competitions, as well as to define how often the animals compete, the results achieved in the contests, and the duration of training. A sample of 1,271 horses used in vaquejada competitions was employed in the study. The first step consisted in interviewing owners to obtain information on the age and breed of the horses, vaquejada circuits in which they compete, frequency of competition in vaquejada, results reached in the trials, and training duration per month, week, and day. The second step obtained 15 linear measurements and calculated eight morphometric indices. The data obtained from the interviews were submitted to descriptive statistical analyses. The linear measurements and morphometric indices were used to compare sexes using a completely randomized experimental design. The results showed that 80.3% of the vaquejada horses were between four and ten years old and that 89% of the animals were of the Quarter Horse. The morphometric measures showed that stallions had higher height at withers, back, and croup and wider heads, chest, and croup than mares and geldings. On the other hand, among the eight indices calculated, only the value of the height at the chest of the stallions was higher than the mean values in mares and geldings. It was found that 79.7% of the horses took part in two to four vaquejada trials a month while 93.3% of the animals underwent fitness training 12 months a year. The results show a predominance of Quarter Horses in the vaquejada contests in Pernambuco and that the trials require the selection of physically larger and stronger stallions. In addition, the animals are submitted to intense training and competition routines.
O estudo objetivou determinar as faixas etárias, raças e características morfológicas dos equinos competidores de vaquejadas em Pernambuco, assim como definir a frequência em que os animais competem, os resultados conquistados nas disputas e a duração dos treinamentos. Foram utilizados 1271 equinos participantes de provas de vaquejada realizadas no sertão e agreste pernambucano. A primeira etapa do trabalho consistiu em uma entrevista aos proprietários dos animais para obter informações sobre a idade dos equinos, raça, circuitos de vaquejada em que competem (oficiais ou não oficiais), frequência de participação em vaquejadas, resultados alcançados nas provas e a duração mensal, semanal e diária dos treinamentos. Na segunda etapa foram mensuradas 15 medidas lineares e calculados oito índices morfométricos. Os dados obtidos a partir das entrevistas foram submetidos à análises estatísticas descritivas. Já as medidas lineares e índices morfométricos foram utilizados para comparar os sexos, por meio de delineamento experimental inteiramente ao acaso. Os resultados morfométricos foram submetidos à análise de variância e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey (P<0,05). Observou-se que 80,3% dos equinos de vaquejada tinham entre quatro e 10 anos de idade e que 89% dos animais eram da raça Quarto de Milha. Em relação às medidas morfométricas, registrou-se nos garanhões maiores alturas na cernelha, dorso e garupa e maiores larguras de cabeça, peito e garupa que nas éguas e nos machos castrados. Por outro lado, dentre os oito índices calculados, apenas o valor do vazio subesternal dos garanhões foi superior as médias das fêmeas e dos machos castrados. Constatou-se que 79,7% dos equinos participavam de duas a quatro provas de vaquejada por mês e que 93,3% dos animais eram condicionados fisicamente 12 meses por ano. Concluiu-se que nas vaquejadas realizadas no estado de Pernambuco há predomínio de equinos da raça Quarto de Milha, na faixa etária entre quatro e dez anos e as provas exigem seleção de garanhões fisicamente maiores e mais fortes. Além disso, os animais são submetidos a intensas rotinas de competições e treinamento.

Resumo O artigo problematiza as ações e campanhas educativas voltadas à infância na área odontológica, abordando aspectos centrais, como a implantação de gabinetes dentários nas escolas públicas e a criação de concursos de "bons dentes" para a propagação de preceitos da higiene moderna. Os dentistas foram agentes decisivos na difusão da "ciência odontológica moderna", presentes nas escolas e em diversas instituições, atuando em atividades educativas e também no âmbito de ações e lutas por políticas públicas que reconhecessem as questões de saúde bucal. O artigo se baseia em extensa pesquisa, incluindo documentação variada e, a partir de diálogos com a nova história cultural, busca questionar as formas de prescrever a saúde bucal nas primeiras décadas do século XX.
Abstract Educational actions and campaigns in the area of dentistry geared towards children are addressed, focusing on the introduction of dental cabinets, or offices, at public schools and the creation of "good teeth" competitions to spread modern precepts of hygiene. Dentists were key agents in the spread of "modern dental science" at schools and different institutions, taking part in educational activities and also in actions and struggles for public policies that recognized the issues of oral health. The article is based on extensive research of a variety of documental sources and, through dialogues with the new cultural history, questions the ways oral health was prescribed in the early decades of the twentieth century.

El término competencias profesionales se define en la actualidad, como la posesión por parte del individuo de los conocimientos, destrezas y actitudes necesarias para realizar su actividad. El actual estudio tiene como objetivo profundizar en el análisis de la literatura sobre las competencias profesionales con un enfoque de formación y desarrollo de la expresión escrita en las universidades médicas. Con la revisión documental, se corroboró que en estas instituciones, el tratamiento de los contenidos de los programas de las asignaturas, no garantizan el desarrollo de las competencias profesionales, atendiendo a que los currículos están diseñados por habilidades lo que trae como resultado que sus egresados no cuenten con el desarrollo adecuado de tales competencias, en particular las que garantizan la práctica afectiva de la expresión escrita.
Professional competencies are currently defined as an individual's knowledge, skills and attitudes required to work in a specific profession. The current study aimed to further examine the literature related to professional skills with a focus on the development of writing in medical universities. Through document review, it was confirmed that in these institutions, the syllabi do not ensure the development of professional competencies since curricula are skills based. This in turn hinders the proper development of professional competencies, particularly those that guarantee strong writing practices.

RESUMO
The holding of the national college students' clinical skills competition reflects the importance of medical education for clinical practice training . Although through intensive itemized skills drills, the competitors can complete each individual operation with satisfaction, due to the lack of clinical experience, in the integrated circuit training, they will easily stray into question stemtrap. The concrete analysis of the national college students' clinical skills contest competition reflects the medical students' insufficient recognition of clinical skills, lack of the overall concept of the intensive medical treatment, not flexible and insufficient mastery of the connotation of the clinical skills, which seriously restricts the improvement of clinical education. Therefore this article raises special sugges-tions, referring to training focusing on “Airway and Circulation”, developing the critical care thinking based on the relationship of multi-organ and improving the first-aid capability of the team work, so as to provide reference for the improvement of training effect.
