The teaching of sciences needs to be the agent to promote the understanding and dealing with nature, projetcting a better future through observation of the natural phenomena. At UFSM, a public institution, the candidate disponibility rate at the school of sciences is bellow one, expressing a low attractiveness when comparing with a general rate of six candidates approximately for each disponibility for alI carriers available. Only the enhancement of teaching sciences will stimulate young people to think, discusse and to test their observations appropriately. Following this way will avoid the consequente marginalization in a society that cannot any more accept continue at this leveI of technological and scientific dependence. We have been worried about some of the aspects of the university social roles, the looks toward the educational democratization, in the sense of making it acessible to varions social levels, specially of the analizad new students doesn't exert remunerated activities, normally they come from public highschools and are from families with income bellow four minimum salaries. The number of students concluding the sciences course has sherphy decressed, while droping out and failings have increased systematically. It is necessary to develop a critical thinking in teaching sciences in a as large as possible group ps people, since the future society will be rulled by the ones who have learnt this universal language. We cannot minimizate the chance to graduate good professionals to bring up and to promote, beginning at elementary schools, the interest for science, taking the path of analytical though, developing concepts and scientific criteria, increasing the science value itself.

In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments.

The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
