A qualidade do atendimento e os serviços prestados: um estudo sobre a relação de satisfação dos alunos do Curso de administração pública na Escola Superior de Ciências Sociais Unidade da Universidade do Estado do Amazonas - UEA

The theme of this dissertation is the quality in assistance and services rendered: a study on the satisfaction of the students from the Social Studies school. In a school, leader are supposed to always believe that the best form of attaining success derives from their performance in decentralizing activities, do away with barriers and help in the front line. This is the participative management. Students satisfaction is the goal. When the whole school community feels emotionally involved, success is assured, since all the educational segments are supposed to get together for achieving school success. When investment is made in the continued education of the school staff, such as the establishing a teaching of quality is sedimented. To have a school of quality in assistance and services rendered and, thereafter, to obtain favorable results, it is necessary for everyone to be aware of their roles, which is only possible through a cooperative effort on the part of the people forming the institution, with a commitment of the whole team: teaching, technical and administrative staff, as well as its external and internal clients, with values of excellence and relevance, which ought to be present in the whole of the educational effort. The four fundamental dimensions for a program of quality are: Planning to change; organizing to act; Acting to transform; Assessing to improve. In planning the institution establishes its objectives. In organizing it defines the structure for a more flexible action. In acting what has been established is implemented. In assessing it constantly improves the program of quality. To look for the students quality and satisfaction is the virtue of persistence is the doing right from the word go. To have a zeal and care in everything one does e for whom it is intended to, since to achieve the maximum in result with the least effort, reaching goal, objectives and finalities are everything the target population wishes.

Mãe-de-aluno, quem é você? Ou mães-de-aluno: papéis sociais e representações da escola pública: um estudo em campo

Uma larga experiência em direção de unidade escolar do Município do Rio de Janeiro possibilitou-nos uma abordagem sobre papéis sociais e representações das mães-de-aluno de escola pública. Embora o discurso oficial seja a chamada geral da população e da mãe-de-aluno em especial, para uma participação ativa no processo escolar, a realidade tem-nos mostradoa falta de espaço para uma atuação concreta, numa amostra de incapacidade da escola em lidar com esta camada da população subestimada pelos profissionais que lidam com educação. A presente pesquisa constata, a partir de uma perspectiva dramatúrgica dos papéis sociais, algumas formas complexas e sutis de interação no cenário "escola" e nos revela a representação social da escola pública pela mãe-de-aluno, esse segmento da comunidade escolar "próximo-distante".

Mobility, targeting and private school vouchers

This paper uses general equilibrium simulations to explore the role ofresidential mobility in shaping the impact of different types of private school voucher policies. In particular, general vouchers available to all residents in the state are compared to vouchers specifically targeted to either underprivileged school districts or underprivileged households. The simulations are derived from a three-community mo deI of low, middle and high income school districts (calibrated to New York data), where each school district is composed of multiple types of neighborhoods that may vary in house quality as well as the leveI of neighborhood extemalities. Households that differ in both their income and in the ability leveI of their children choose between school districts, between neighborhoods within their school district, and between the local public school or a menu of private school altematives.Local public school quality within a district is endogenously determined bya combination of the average peer quality of public school attending children as well as local property and state income tax supported spending. Financial support (above a required state minimum) is set by local majority rule. Finally, there exists the potential for a private school market composed of competitive schools that face production technologies similar to those ofpublic schools but who set tuition and admissions policies to maximize profits. In tbis model, it is demonstrated that school district targeted vouchers are similar in their impact to non-targeted vouchers but vastIy different from vouchers targeted to low income households. Furthermore, strong migration effects are shown to significantly improve the likely equity consequences of voucher programs.
