English to Portuguese: Special Education Report - Multidisciplinary Preschool Assessment Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - English VALIDITY STATEMENT
This report provides a picture of the student’s current situation, skills, and needs. All areas of suspected disability were evaluated with conclusions supported by multiple sources of information (including records, observations and interviews). The tests used in this assessment were individually administered, current, reliable, and normed on representative samples. They were appropriate for the student’s age and/or grade level, and they were administered either nonverbally or in the student’s language through an interpreter. Assessment methods were selected for less culturally and linguistically biased methods and in accord with the requirements of the California Education Code. However, scores from the tests should be interpreted with caution given the fact that they are standardized on children who may come from other backgrounds and communities than the student’s. In the professional judgment of the evaluating team members, this assessment is a valid measure of the student’s current level of functioning.
Translation - Portuguese DECLARAÇÃO DE VALIDADE
O presente relatório fornece uma imagem da situação, habilidades e necessidades atuais da aluna. Todas as áreas com suspeita de deficiência foram avaliadas, com conclusões apoiadas em diversas fontes de informações (incluindo registros, observações e entrevistas). Os testes utilizados nesta avaliação foram aplicados individualmente e são atuais, confiáveis e normatizados em amostras representativas. São adequados para a idade e/ou o ano escolar da aluna e foram aplicados de maneira não verbal ou no idioma da aluna por meio de um(a) intérprete. Os métodos de avaliação selecionados são os métodos com menor viés cultural e linguístico e estão de acordo com o as exigências do Código Educacional da Califórnia. No entanto, as pontuações dos testes devem ser interpretadas com cuidado, dado o fato de que são padronizadas em crianças que podem ter antecedentes e vir de comunidades diferentes do que a aluna. No julgamento profissional dos membros da equipe de avaliação, esta avaliação é uma medição válida do nível atual de desempenho da aluna.

Source text - English Appendix A: What More Should We Know About the State Measures?
Now let’s look at each of the state measures in more detail.
1. Chronic Absenteeism
The Chronic Absenteeism measure shows how many students were absent for 10 percent or more of the total instructional school days. For example, most schools have 180 instructional days; if a student is absent 18 or more of those days, the student would be considered chronically absent. Students who are chronically absent miss out on important classroom instruction. Capturing this information in the Dashboard allows parents and educators to see if chronic absenteeism is a problem at a school or across a district.
2. Suspension Rate
The Suspension Rate measure shows the percent of students who were suspended anytime during the school year. Students who are suspended from school miss out on important classroom instruction. Capturing this information in the Dashboard allows parents and educators to see if there is a suspension problem at a school or across a district and whether certain student groups are suspended more than others. (Note: A student is counted only once for this measure even if he or she has multiple suspensions throughout the year.)
3. English Learner Progress
Proficiency in the English language is a first step for students to do well in other subject areas, such as reading, writing, mathematics, and science. The English Learner Progress measure looks at the progress that English learners (e.g., students who don’t speak English as their first language) are making toward English proficiency. Each spring, English learners take the English Language Proficiency Assessments for California, or ELPAC, which measures how well they know and understand English. Results from the ELPAC are used to calculate the English Learner Progress measure. (Note: Because only two years of ELPAC data were available in fall 2019, the 2019 Dashboard reported only the percent of students making progress toward English languages proficiency. No performance level, or color, was available.)
4. Graduation Rate
The Graduation Rate measure applies only to schools and districts that serve high school students. For traditional schools, this measure is based on the number of students who graduate with a regular high school diploma in four years or five years. (Note: Students who earn a Special Education Certificate of Completion or a general equivalency diploma are not counted as graduates.) Regardless of whether students go on to college, a high school diploma is the minimum requirement for most entry-level jobs in today’s economy. It represents mastery of foundational skills in mathematics, reading, and writing.
5. College/Career Readiness
The College/Career measure shows how many students graduate from high school better prepared for college or a career. It uses many different measures of college and career preparedness, looking at the courses students completed in high school or the exams they passed. For additional information about how schools help students become prepared, please view the College/Career measure informational flyers.
6. Academic: English Language Arts and Mathematics
The Academic measure shows how well students are meeting grade-level standards in English Language Arts and mathematics. It is based on student performance on the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments and the California Alternate Assessments, which are taken each spring by students in grades 3–8 and grade 11. Note: If less than 95 percent of all students are not tested, performance on this measure is adjusted downward.
Translation - Spanish Apéndice A: ¿Qué más debemos saber acerca de las medidas estatales?
Ahora miremos cada una de las medidas estatales con más detalles.
1. Absentismo Escolar Crónico
La medida de Absentismo Escolar Crónico indica cuantos estudiantes estuvieron ausentes el 10% o más del total de jornadas escolares de instrucción. Por ejemplo, la mayoría de las escuelas tienen 180 jornadas de instrucción. Si un estudiante está ausente en 18 o más de esas jornadas, el estudiante sería considerado crónicamente ausente. Los estudiantes que están crónicamente ausentes pierden instrucción escolar importante. La captura de esa información en el Tablero de Información permite que los padres y los educadores vean si el absentismo crónico es un problema en una escuela o en todo el distrito.
2. Índice de Suspensión
La medida de Índice de Suspensión indica el porcentaje de estudiantes quienes han estado suspendidos alguna vez durante el año escolar. Los estudiantes que son suspendidos de la escuela pierden instrucción escolar importante. La captura de esa información en el Tablero de Información permite que los padres y los educadores vean si hay algún problema respecto a suspensiones en una escuela o en todo el distrito y si ciertos grupos de estudiantes son suspendidos más que los otros. (Nota: Se cuenta cada estudiante solamente una vez en esta medida, incluso si ha tenido múltiples suspensiones durante el año.)
3. Progreso de los Aprendices de Inglés
El dominio del idioma inglés es la primera etapa para que los estudiantes se salgan bien en otras áreas académicas, tales como lectura, escritura, matemáticas y ciencias. La medida de Progreso de los Aprendices de Inglés examina el progreso que los aprendices de inglés (o sea, estudiantes que no hablan inglés como su primer idioma) están teniendo hacia el dominio del inglés. Cada primavera, los aprendices de inglés realizan las Evaluaciones de Dominio del Idioma Inglés de California (ELPAC, por sus siglas en inglés), que miden qué tan bien saben y entienden el inglés. Los resultados de ELPAC se utilizan para calcular la medida de Progreso de los Aprendices de Inglés. (Nota: Como solamente dos años de datos de ELPAC estaban disponibles en el otoño de 2019, el Tablero de Información de 2019 indica solamente el porcentaje de estudiantes que progresó hacia el dominio del idioma inglés. No se presenta un nivel de rendimiento, o color.)
4. Índice de Graduación
La medida de Índice de Graduación aplica solamente a las escuelas y distritos que atienden a estudiantes de escuela secundaria. Para las escuelas tradicionales, esa medida se basa en el número de estudiantes que recibieron un diploma de escuela secundaria dentro de los cuatro o cinco años. (Nota: Estudiantes que reciben un Certificado de Conclusión de Educación Especial o un diploma de equivalencia de secundaria no se cuentan como graduados.) Independiente de si los estudiantes van a la universidad o no, un diploma de escuela secundaria es el requisito mínimo para la mayoría de los trabajos de nivel principiante en la economía de hoy. Representa el domino de las habilidades fundamentales en matemáticas, lectura y escritura.
5. Preparación para la Universidad o Carrera Profesional
La medida de Preparación para la Universidad o Carrera Profesional indica cuantos estudiantes terminan la escuela secundaria mejor preparados para una universidad o una carrera profesional. Usa muchas medidas distintas de preparación para la universidad y la carrera profesional, considerando los cursos que los estudiantes completaron en la secundaria o los exámenes que aprobaron. Para obtener información adicional acerca de cómo las escuelas les ayudan los estudiantes a prepararse, vea los folletos informativos de la medida de Preparación para la Universidad o Carrera Profesional.
6. Académica: Lengua y Literatura en Inglés y Matemáticas
La medida Académica indica qué tan bien los estudiantes están alcanzando los estándares del nivel de su grado en Lengua y Literatura en Inglés y Matemáticas. Se basa en el rendimiento de los estudiantes en las Evaluaciones Sumativas Smarter Balanced y los Exámenes Alternos de California, que los estudiantes de 3.º a 8.º y 11.º grado realizan cada primavera. Nota: Si menos que el 95% de todos los estudiantes realiza las pruebas, el rendimiento en esa medida se ajusta hacia abajo.

English to Portuguese: Patient Information - Radiation Oncology Detailed field: Medical: Health Care
Source text - English IMAGING/X-RAYS
Prior to your initial consult, your records including imaging studies are evaluated by our physicians. All x-rays (including mammograms) done outside our hospital may need to be requested by Radiation Oncology dept.
Your physician will order verification imaging as part of your treatment course. These x-rays are not used as a diagnostic test but used to ensure accurate positioning according to your treatment plan.
QUALITY CHECKS
Each morning before any patients are treated, the machine is checked for performance and quality control. This verifies that the machine is delivering the amount of treatment we need to deliver.
FOLLOW UP
Follow up visits are important for Radiation Oncology so that we may monitor your progress as well as address any side effects you may be experiencing. After your initial follow up visit, generally you will be scheduled at 3-6 month intervals, depending on your situation and how you are doing.
Translation - Portuguese DIAGNÓSTICO POR IMAGEM/RADIOGRAFIAS
Antes da consulta inicial, a sua ficha, incluindo exames com imagens, é avaliada pelos nossos médicos. Todas as radiografias (incluindo mamografias) realizadas fora do nosso hospital podem ter que pedidas pelo Departamento de Radio-Oncologia.
O seu médico solicitará exames de imagem como parte do seu programa de tratamento. Tais radiografias não são utilizadas como exames de diagnóstico, mas para assegurar o posicionamento correto de acordo com o seu plano de tratamento.
VERIFICAÇÕES DE QUALIDADE
Todas as manhãs antes do atendimento de qualquer paciente, a máquina passa por uma verificação de desempenho e controle de qualidade. Isso verifica que a máquina esteja fornecendo a quantidade de radiação que precisamos fornecer.
ACOMPANHAMENTO
As consultas de acompanhamento são importantes para a radio-oncologia, para que possamos monitorar o seu progresso, assim como lidar com quaisquer efeitos colaterais que você possa apresentar. Depois da consulta de acompanhamento inicial, geralmente as consultas serão marcadas em intervalos de três a seis meses, dependendo do caso e de como você estiver indo.
English to Portuguese: Study Protocol Detailed field: Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Source text - English Study Design
This will be a prospective, randomized and comparative study including 20 patients with myopia or myopia with astigmatism for both eyes. Both eyes of all patients must qualify for custom refractive treatment with both the XX procedure and the YY procedure. Each patient will have their treatment randomized for treatment between eyes, with one eye having treatment with the ZZ system and the fellow eye having treatment with the WW system. Enhancement procedures will not be allowed in this study. Both eyes of enrolled patients must be included in the study. The primary efficacy variables for this study are visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and change in higher-order aberrations. Neither patient nor investigator that will evaluate the postoperative tests will know which equipment was used in each eye.
Subjects will be followed over a 6-month period. A proposed examination schedule is listed in Table 1.
Postop visit schedule includes required study visits only. The investigator is free to choose additional pre or postoperative visit times if appropriate.
Translation - Portuguese Projeto do Estudo

A passion for languages has led me to a career in
translation as well as language training. I have been a professional translator
since 1999, after having completed a two-year Graduate Specialization in
Translation at São Paulo University (USP) in Brazil. My language training
experience dates back to 1996, and is supported by two teaching certificates
obtained in Brazil (Mackenzie University) and Canada (Conestoga College).
Born and raised in Brazil, I am a native Brazilian
Portuguese speaker, fluent both in Spanish (Higher Diploma of Spanish as a
Foreign Language - University of Salamanca, Spain) and English (Cambridge
Proficiency Exam - England). I lived in Argentina for three years, in Canada (Ontario)
for eight years, and in the United States (California) for nine years, before
returning to Canada in 2020.
I am a highly specialized and experienced translator in the
areas of Education, Market Research and Health Care. Over the years, I have
worked extensively with academic and educational documents, including academic
transcripts, school reports, psychoeducational assessments, language and speech
assessments, special education assessments and reports, as well as guides and
brochures for parents.
In the area of Market Research, I have translated hundreds
of thousands of words in market surveys, while providing overlay, quality
assurance and testing services.
In the Health Care area, I frequently translate hospital
policy documents, research protocols, and other patient facing documents and
brochures.
I always strive to be on time, professional and accurate.
Responding to the needs of my clients in a timely way is of utmost importance.
