THE TONE SHOULD REMAIN PERSONAL AND I PLAN ON UPDATING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. POSTED 07-10-2009 AT 11:18 PM BY LSMART UPDATED 07-12-2009 AT 03:53 PM BY LSMART (UPDATE - JOYSTICK WORKS - BUT NEEDS CALIBRATION) The curtains are still drawn on a quiet Saturday morning. I am sitting in front of my »new Amiga«. It is a Sam440ep-Flex that I bought a few months ago. Behind my back my wife and the dog are still sleeping - wait - well at least she is snoozing. There is a lot to tell about my past experiences with Sam, UAE and Aros. And in fact I have told some of it - in german on my homepage. I think I might mention parts of it when there is a current theme that relates to my earlier posts. Yesterday I downloaded Vice from OS4depot and I am planning on transferring my Geos-Disks to Sam. I just hope I can find the cable. Vice seems to run really well on that little machine. I haven’t found out how to tell it to calibrate the joystick. I won’t play on the keyboard while a USB- Competition-Pro is resting on my desk. I have very fond memories of the classic Competition-Pro. I want this blog to capture most of the things I learn and experience on the machine and on related topics (such as my classic HW).

Aos meus pais. i ii AGRADECIMENTOS Numa tese que assenta em modelos de aprendizagem colaborativos, que defendem que a aprendizagem é especialmente significativa quando se dá “com o outro”, não podia deixar o seu autor de agradecer a todo um conjunto de pessoas que, pela sua contribuição através de sugestões, críticas ou revisões, tornaram a sua própria aprendizagem (e, consequentemente, este contributo) significativo. Foram muitas as pessoas que participaram directamente ou indirectamente ao longo deste processo. A todos estou grato. Em particular, gostaria de salientar e agradecer: Aos meus orientadores, Leonel Morgado e Benjamim Fonseca, e ao professor Paulo Martins pela constante orientação e revisão dos textos produzidos ao longo de todo este percurso; Ao Carlos Ferreira, Antónia Barreto e Mafalda Belo pelo seu auxílio nos aspectos científicos ligados às ciências sociais e da educação; Aos dois professores do 1º ciclo do ensino básico, professores Pascal Paulus e Augusta Santos, que me abriram as portas das suas salas de aula e me deixaram conduzir este projecto com as suas turmas e nas suas práticas lectivas.
