    Tocando do jeito delas: o piano como instrumento musicalizador de crianças com transtorno do espectro do autismo
    (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, 2025-12-05) Maria Teresa de Souza Neves
    This doctoral thesis investigated the interfaces among music education, piano, and autism in children aged three to five, aiming to understand how musical engagement can foster the musical and sociocommunicative development of this population. To this end, five complementary and progressive studies were developed, addressing the theme from different theoretical, pedagogical, and empirical perspectives. Study 1, of a bibliographic nature, conducted a systematic review of the literature on piano teaching for individuals with ASD, revealing a scarcity of specific research and highlighting the importance of flexibility and teacher sensitivity in inclusive music education. Study 2, qualitative in nature, explored the original musicality of two nonverbal autistic children through independent case studies, showing that gestures, vocalizations, and musical improvisations on the piano constitute legitimate forms of communication. Study 3, practical and reflective in nature, presented child-centered pedagogical strategies with an emphasis on improvisation and playfulness, highlighting advances in shared attention, imitation, and creativity during piano lessons. Study 4 broadened the scope of the research by reflecting on the training of music teachers in basic education. Arising from real concerns in the teaching profession, the study offered practical and reflective contributions for teaching autistic students, reinforcing the role of the music educator as an agent of inclusion. Finally, Study 5, using a mixed-methods approach, empirically evaluated the effects of fifteen piano lessons on the musical and sociocommunicative development of sixteen autistic children, showing significant progress during and after the intervention. When integrated, the studies reveal the piano as a driving instrument of affective and social mediation, capable of awakening the child’s original musicality and enhancing their forms of expression and communication. Although the results cannot be generalized due to the small number of participants, the evidence indicates that piano instruction in early childhood can promote lasting gains in the musical and sociocommunicative development of autistic children, as well as inspire more sensitive, creative, and inclusive pedagogical practices.

    Discursos de um patrimônio em crise: a fragmentação dos suportes de Memória em Bento Rodrigues, Minas Gerais
    (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, 2020-11-20) João Pedro Otoni
    This dissertation aims to investigate the experiences and the multiple layers present when dealing with social memory and cultural heritage in the face of crisis contexts and critical events, having as a case study the disaster that occurred in November 2015 in Bento Rodrigues in Minas Gerais. Initially, the research seeks through studies in the large area of the social sciences to understand memory as a social phenomenon. It investigates memory, highlighting its differentiation from history and understanding it as a collective or individual fact. A key point for the study is the analyses made regarding the supports of memory and the constitution of the cultural heritage, and how they are related to contexts of crisis or critical events. The methodological investigations will take place by looking at the particularities present in the experiences that may reflect issues of family memory, collective and social memory. Thus, with regard to the community in question, it is intended to understand the impact caused by the loss of its memory supports. For this, a methodological proposal based on the “Critical Discourse Analysis (ACD)” is used as an approach to understand the speeches formulated by the community in question from their experiences in crisis, as well as the agents and groups that surround them. In addition, this methodology allowed to investigate about how the discourse of heritage and memory can be used, adulterated, exacerbated or obliterated by the different actors present and active in this context of fragmentation of memory and heritage.

    ANÁLISE E COMPARAÇÃO DA MATURIDADE BIM EM UM PROJETO INDUSTRIAL
    (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, 2025-12-15) Gabriel Victoria Tassara
    The present work is situated within the field of Building Information Modeling (BIM), with a particular emphasis on maturity assessment methods and their application in project environments. BIM, inherently connected to project management, drives structural transformations in collaboration dynamics, information integration, and communication flows among stakeholders in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation (AECO) sector. A review of existing studies reveals not only the growing adoption of BIM but also persistent gaps in its effective implementation. Many professionals still demonstrate partial conceptual understanding, resulting in incomplete applications or misalignment with established best practices. In this context, the need to enhance tools capable of diagnosing the BIM maturity level of projects becomes evident, as such instruments can support more strategic, accurate, and beneficial adoption. The central objective of this thesis is to propose improvements to existing BIM maturity assessment methods. This objective was achieved by analyzing and applying these methods in a real-world case study: a large-scale industrial project whose complexity provided robust conditions for evaluating the strengths and limitations of current models. The methodological approach employed was Design Science Research (DSR), selected for its problem‑solving orientation and its capacity to generate artifacts that enhance process quality. The results encompass the verification of BIM maturity, comparative analysis of different assessment methods, and a critical evaluation of the maturity level achieved by the studied project. Based on these findings, enhancements to existing methods were proposed, notably the inclusion of a structured improvement‑management stage supported by continuous evaluation cycles. Ultimately, this thesis contributes to advancing BIM applicability within the AECO sector by fostering more informed decision‑making and strengthening the consistency of maturity assessment processes.

    Arborização urbana e desafios para implementação de parâmetros ambientais: o caso das conexões verdes em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais
    (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, 2025-10-29) Clara Valério Ribeiro
    This study seeks to identify and analyze the potentialities and limitations on the application of environmental parameters foreseen in urban planning instruments, taking as a case study the Green Connection areas included in the Master Plan of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. This research is based on the hypothesis that this could be one of the main elements present in the urban legislation of the capital of Minas Gerais that promote the increase of tree species within the urban fabric, given that these road axes are considered strategic by the public authorities and require compliance with specific parameters of soil permeability and afforestation. For the development of the research, the territorial scope of the Northwest Administrative Region of the municipality is adopted, identified as the portion of territory with the lowest tree coverage index among the nine administrative regions of the city. The main sources for the study are building permit data and urban legislation, analyzed through documentary research and field visits for verification. The survey and analysis of the historical evolution of the municipal urban legislation, compared with the urbanization process of the region, make it possible to observe the reactive nature of the norms over time, seeking to adapt to existing land usage and occupation, which consequently reveal a low capacity to transform consolidated contexts. Analysis of the delimitations of the Green Connection areas and property regularization indicate that, both in public and private spaces, the application of the parameters faces challenges such as regulatory overlaps, loss of characteristics after the completion of construction work, and the technical feasibility of implementing afforestation due to roadway dimensions, among others. The results indicate that, although the Green Connections represent an advance in the integration between urban planning and environmental sustainability, their application is still incipient, at least in the analyzed context, which is characterized by the consolidation of the urban fabric prior to regulation.
