In S\u00e3o Paulo, the big draw of the week took place at Parque CienTec, the science and technology park of the University of S\u00e3o Paulo (USP) where activities included a fossil replica workshop and a showing of short films.\u00a0 In Bras\u00edlia, 200 institutions from around Brazil had projects on display at Parque da Cidade (City Park). One of the attractions was a see-through car engine, used by students at the Federal Institute of Education, Science, and Technology of Pernambuco (IFPE). Another highlight was a project presented by the state of Maranh\u00e3o to teach local honey producers how to use scientific knowledge to expand production. An overall evaluation of the week will have to wait, however, since activities only began in some states, like Amazonas and Esp\u00edrito Santo, after Brazil\u2019s national elections. \u201cThe number of municipalities that were involved should surpass last year\u2019s figure of 740,\u201d said Douglas Falc\u00e3o, general coordinator of National Science and Technology Week for the Ministry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Event promotes activities aiming the social development","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[162],"tags":[226],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-159579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-strategies","tag-education"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159579\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159579"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=159579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
