Portuguese Podcasts Get Favorable Press
Tuesday, 08 January 2008

Buckeye Turf PortugalThe OSU BuckeyeTurf Podcasts received a favorable review from the Brazilian Golf Federation on their  website.  Aline Fae working with the OSU Turfgrass faculty and staff has co-author over 20 BuckeyeTurf Brazilian/Portuguese Podcasts.  In the article Aline explains that the podcasts were developed to help provide technical information in a format that is conducive to the Brazilian turf managers.  Aline  is from Rio Grande do Sul, the very most southern state of Brazil.  For those who would like to practice their Portuguese, the article can be now found under noticias, or a synopsis is given below.

O Programa de Ciência de Turfgrass da Ohio State University (OSU), nos Estados Unidos, criou 20 podcasts em Português sobre manejamento de campos de golfe no Brasil. O objetivo é divulgar informações em aúdio e imagens sobre doenças, pragas, tipos de turfgrasses e práticas comuns como corte da grama, irrigação e rolamento dos greens de forma simplificada e em pequenos formatos.

“Com o grande potencial de desenvolvimento de campos de golfe no Brasil, há uma grande necessidade de fornecer informações sobre o manejamento de turfgrass de uma maneira que os greenkeepers possam entender e implementar”, informa Aline Faé, estagiária e assistente internacional de turfgrass da universidade americana.

Em conjunto com o Professor de Ciência de Turfgrass da OSU, Dr. Karl Danneberger, a estudante brasileira desenvolveu a série de podcasts sobre assuntos agronômicos especificamente para os profissionais de campos de golfe do Brasil. “A idéia é fornecer apresentações pequenas e visualmente interessantes que os greenkeepers possam assistir rapidamente em horários conveniente para eles”, acrescenta Aline.

Também foram criados podcasts chamados “Na Estrada” e “Estudos de Caso”, que mostram como funciona o manejamento do turfgrass nos Estados Unidos e ao redor do mundo. Em “Estudos de Caso”, por exemplo, são mostradas soluções de problemas no manejamento de fairways e greens.

Os podcasts podem ser acessados sem nenhum custo através do website: http://buckeyeturf.osu.edu. Em média, um ou dois novos podcasts são adicionados por mês.  credit: Brazilian Golf Confederation
