Análise dos textos escritos produzidos por alunos da 7ª classe em Angola e propostas de remediação de erros

O estudo sobre os textos escritos produzidos por alunos da 7ª classe em Angola foi estabelecido por nós com base na hipótese da existência de dificuldades de escrita. Há bastantes dúvidas entre os docentes angolanos sobre a capacidade dos alunos na elaboração de textos espontâneos. Desta forma, com o objectivo de conhecermos as capacidades de produção de textos escritos pelos alunos do ensino geral no Lubango, de elaborarmos uma tipologia de análise dos erros encontrados e de propormos estratégias de superação das dificuldades apresentadas nos textos dos alunos, fomos à Escola do I Ciclo do Ensino Secundário 27 de Março do Lubango – Huíla recolher as composições da Prova Trimestral para verificar as dificuldades de escrita apresentadas nos textos dos alunos. Partimos de 314 textos, dos quais foi extraída a amostra de 10%, correspondendo a 32 textos seleccionados através da tabela de números aleatórios. Os textos foram analisados com base na tipologia de erros de Sousa (1996). Desta forma, foram detectados erros de substituição, de omissão, de divisão/aglutinação, os quais foram muito significativos e ocorreram em 66,856% dos casos no total. Os erros de substituição maiúsculas/minúsculas, os de adição, de grafias homófonas constituem 30.856% dos casos. Confirmam-se as dificuldades apresentadas pelos alunos que devem merecer tratamento através das propostas de remediação apresentadas. As dificuldades encontradas nos textos destes alunos devem servir de base para a planificação da disciplina de Língua Portuguesa no Ensino Primário de forma a dotar o aluno de competências para a melhoria da comunicação escrita na sala de aula.

The quest for a balanced manpower capacity: different flexibility strategies examined

To cope with permanent fluctuations in demand, organizations are challenged to organize their manpower capacity in a flexible way. Different strategies of manpower planning are being used for this purpose. Using data from the 2002 Panel Survey of Organisations Flanders, we first verify to what extent temporal, contractual and functional flexibility strategies are applied in Flemish organizations. Subsequently, logistic regression is used to analyse the link between these flexible work strategies and a ‘fitting manpower capacity’. While the results show a negative association between the use of temporal or contractual flexibility measures and a balanced manpower capacity, functional flexibility seems to be positively related. The different logics in which numerical and functional flexibility proceed can be labeled as ‘curative’ versus ‘preventive’ strategies of flexibility. Further analyses discern between various interpretations of functional flexibility and assess whether different team types make a contribution to a fitting manpower capacity.

Probabilistic maintenance and optimization strategies for deteriorating civil infrastructures

In developed countries, civil infrastructures are one of the most significant investments of governments, corporations, and individuals. Among these, transportation infrastructures, including highways, bridges, airports, and ports, are of huge importance, both economical and social. Most developed countries have built a fairly complete network of highways to fit their needs. As a result, the required investment in building new highways has diminished during the last decade, and should be further reduced in the following years. On the other hand, significant structural deteriorations have been detected in transportation networks, and a huge investment is necessary to keep these infrastructures safe and serviceable. Due to the significant importance of bridges in the serviceability of highway networks, maintenance of these structures plays a major role. In this paper, recent progress in probabilistic maintenance and optimization strategies for deteriorating civil infrastructures with emphasis on bridges is summarized. A novel model including interaction between structural safety analysis,through the safety index, and visual inspections and non destructive tests, through the condition index, is presented. Single objective optimization techniques leading to maintenance strategies associated with minimum expected cumulative cost and acceptable levels of condition and safety are presented. Furthermore, multi-objective optimization is used to simultaneously consider several performance indicators such as safety, condition, and cumulative cost. Realistic examples of the application of some of these techniques and strategies are also presented.
