Customer participation has been studied for decades; however, it gained a postmodern perspective around the year 2000. Customers have become co-creators of personalized experiences, moving from the audience to the stage. In the educational context, students must take responsibility for their learning process and participate in the production of the service. This changing is providing opportunities and challenges for higher education institutions (HEIs) to redefine their relationship with stakeholders, especially with students. This study is based on the service dominant logic (SDL) perspective because students are assumed to take the role of co-creators of knowledge in the educational setting. The research uses adapted frameworks and concepts applied in organizational, knowledge-intensive business services (KIBS) and also medical studies to advance the understanding of value co-creation in the HEI context. The current study addresses a lack of research in the higher education context focusing on defining students’ participation and students’ empowerment in higher education context. An empirical investigation was developed with traditional schools in Brazil. This investigation allowed the description of the constructs in the specific context. The description of student participation in HEIs context reflects the relevance of three dimensions – information sharing, personal interaction and responsible behavior. In the Brazilian context, responsible behavior is the weakest dimension in the construct, because the responsibilities are unbalanced between students and professors. The main reasons identified for this unbalanced relation were cultural issues and local regulation. Student empowerment was described as composed by four dimensions – meaningfulness, competence, impact and choice; however, one of them – choice – was identified as the weakest dimension, facing cultural and bureaucratic barriers for implementation in the Brazilian educational context. Moreover, interviewees spontaneously cited the idea of trust in the faculty as an important antecedent of student participation that must be considered when analyzing student participation and empowerment mechanisms. An additional contribution was the proposal of a theory-based framework for understanding the service dominant logic perspective in the HEI context, in which student participation and student empowerment were explored as mechanisms leading to positive student behavior toward institution.

This research¿s main goal was to analyze the existing relationship between both environmental and organizational values from three State Schools located in the city of Curitiba. These are: Protásio de Carvalho School, Guaíra School and Rio Branco School. At a theoretical empirical reference, an environmental approach has been performed, followed by aspects regarding organizational values, including the discussion on the theme of organizational culture, and, finally, a study on the prevalent values in public educational institutions. The method that best features this research is a comparative case report, with the use of multiple sources of evidence. Secondary data in order to identify the environmental values has been obtained through references of two of the most important newspapers in the State of Paraná, reports published by the State¿s Secretary of Education, publications from the State¿s Teachers Union and through the Educational Legislation in both Federal and State levels. The organizational values have been identified from primary data obtained through semi-structured interviews, performed with the School Principals and through questionnaires distributed to the School Principals and Teachers. The analysis over this data has been carried out in a descriptive-qualitative way by using both documentary and content analysis techniques. The database revealed that there are a few consistencies between environmental and organizational values, in a way that certain values identified in society and in the Government are, several times, more congruent with the values identified in the group of School Principals, whereas the values identified in the Teacher¿s Union have a higher consistency with the prevalent values in the group of teachers. At schools, mainly in the group of teachers, there¿s a noticeable refraction towards actions promoted by the government, and a certain skepticism towards actions promoted by the Teacher¿s Union. The student¿s education is given a higher value than one¿s cognitive education, in the work atmosphere as much as in the organizations; the Society has been gradually taking the responsibility regarding public education, with the support of school boards, teachers, and even of the Government, at a time when teachers, unlike the Society and the Government, appear to give very little value to their own profession.

In the actual competitive scenario the higher education institutions have been forced to become more active in recruiting students due to the reduction in candidates for its courses. Print advertising are important components in the educational services communications campaigns and, thus, they are an important focus of research. The literature on services communication suggests that the use of cues, as the installations picture and testimonial, presents an observable way to tangibilize educational services offers. We relate the cue paradigm theory as evaluative indicators of a product, with two of the four advertising strategies, with the objective to investigate the impact of the cues in the printed educational services ad¿s in relation to the consumers attitudes. More specifically, to investigate the impact of the physical representation strategy (installations picture - an intrinsic cue), and the association strategy (testimonial - an extrinsic cue), in the consumers attitudes toward the advertisement, the brand and the purchase intention. With this purpose an experiment between subjects with 123 students was carried through, with four levels of manipulation. In relation to consumer attitudes, none of the analyzed strategies presented a significative superiority in relation one with another. However, the subjects with low involvement in the value/auto-image dimension had presented more favorable attitudes in relation to the purchase intention in the presence of the advertising using a testimonial (association strategy - an extrinsic cue).

O presente trabalho tem por objetivos verificar a importância da avaliação do capital intelectual em instituições de ensino superior e elaborar um modelo capaz de avaliar o capital intelectual dos cursos de mestrado profissional em administração, possibilitando a comparação entre diferentes cursos e o acompanhamento de suas metas e de seus objetivos estratégicos. Desse modo, defende-se a tese da importância da avaliação do capital intelectual em instituições de ensino superior e também da viabilidade da elaboração de um modelo de avaliação de capital intelectual capaz de evidenciar os ativos intangíveis críticos dos cursos de mestrado profissional em administração (MPA). Para alcançar os objetivos, foi realizada uma pesquisa sobre a teoria de capital intelectual, buscando entender como são identificados e avaliados os ativos intangíveis de diferentes organizações. Foram pesquisadas, ainda, as principais iniciativas mundiais que buscaram a sua avaliação, com foco especial naqueles modelos que são dedicados às instituições de ensino. Com isso, foi possível propor um modelo inicial para avaliação do capital intelectual dos cursos de MPA, estruturado em três seções: (i) plano estratégico; (ii) ativos intangíveis críticos; e (iii) indicadores de capital intelectual agrupados por capital estrutural, relacional e humano. A partir de uma pesquisa de campo realizada com 101 professores e coordenadores de diferentes cursos de MPA no Brasil, os ativos intangíveis críticos e os indicadores foram definidos e validados com base na opinião dos respondentes acerca da importância de cada item para a avaliação do capital intelectual do objeto estudado e o grau de dificuldade atribuído ao processo de coleta de dados necessários à elaboração de cada indicador. Assim, com base na análise fatorial exploratória, foi possível definir os construtos do modelo de avaliação de capital intelectual e sua estrutura final. Por fim, foram realizados testes para a comparação de médias para amostras independentes e teste de independência entre variáveis categóricas, possibilitando não só a confirmação da tese defendida como também importantes conclusões sobre o tema pesquisado.

A temática da Responsabilidade Social está em grande discussão na atualidade, fazendo a sociedade repensar o papel das empresas e exigindo delas mais responsabilidade e envolvimento com o seu desenvolvimento. No Brasil, a discussão de questões relativas à Responsabilidade Social ganhou espaço apenas mais recentemente, em seguida ao processo de industrialização e vinda de grandes empresas para o país. Dessa forma, vem à tona uma discussão sobre o preparo dos profissionais de Administração brasileiros para trabalhar a Responsabilidade Social nas empresas e sobre a inclusão desta temática nos cursos de graduação em Administração. O desafio dessas instituições é abordar a Responsabilidade Social e a ética dentro de seus currículos, conjugando a formação acadêmica, técnica e ética dos alunos. As metodologias de ensino tradicionais levam a um esclarecimento teórico sobre o tema, no entanto não preparam os alunos para lidar com as questões de responsabilidade social na prática. Este estudo propôs o service-learning como uma metodologia de abordagem prática para o ensino de Responsabilidade Social, permitindo a aproximação entre instituições de ensino superior e comunidades, em uma experiência de aprendizado e ganho para ambas. Foram analisados neste estudo dois casos de instituições de ensino brasileiras que desenvolvem programas junto a comunidades, com o objetivo de conhecer suas práticas e estudar as possíveis contribuições que o uso da metodologia service-learning poderia trazer ao contexto educacional brasileiro, em busca da formação de profissionais mais sensibilizados às questões sociais.

Five years ago, Coca-Cola Brasil launched a program named “Coletivo Project”, with the purpose to enjoy an opportunity of increase on the potential consumption power of the low-income pyramid population that lived on the “favelas”. At the same time, it had the objective to offer to them a social and financial impact, which is a trust on the future, the first job for the young adults’ participant of this program and an increase on their family source of revenues, through salaries. This was possible because through Coletivo Project, Coca-Cola identified the assets they have through its value chain, focusing on its competencies, such as retail, merchandising and logistics to apply them on courses to teach the young people of the communities and, as a result, form them to be able to find their new jobs. Internal indicators followed in a monthly basis by Coca-Cola demonstrated that the communities that had the presence of Coletivos, in comparison to those without Coletivos, had social and financial impacts. The social was the fact that the young formed started to have more confidence on their future and felt with a higher self-stem to apply for and obtain their first job. On the financial aspect, they were benefit through the increasing of their revenues and also their families and Coca-Cola had an increase on sales, when compared to a community without a Coletivo Project installed. This dissertation seeks to identify the current relationship between Coca-Cola and the communities, through the Coletivo Project classes performed on the NGOs located at this places, in order to identify opportunities for improvement the benefits and the impacts (financial and social) on the NGOs, communities and all stakeholders of this project. This dissertation examines this relationship, through presence interviews performed on four NGOs selected, and located on four of the twenty communities, that are participants of the Coletivo Project on Rio de Janeiro city. These interviews performed with the students, representatives and educators of these NGOs. The covered period of the interviews ranges from April 2014 to August 2014. This dissertation draws on first-hand qualitative empirical evidence gathered through extensive fieldwork. The main findings among possibilities for improvement by Coca-Cola are: • Implement new courses, beyond those existent at Coca-Cola (Retail, Logistics, etc.). • Increase the content of the employment module of Coletivo classes, focusing on improving educational, cultural, economic, political, social and professional life. • Increase the scale, through the quantity of positions on the Retail Coletivo classes. • Develop cultural and sports events with the communities. • Support the points of sales, participant of the practical classes of the Coletivo Retail, with refrigerators and furniture with the Coca-Cola logo. • Provide coffee breaks and meals during the Coletivo classes, using Coca-Cola beverages and partners for food items, developing the nutrition platform of the company and filling a need of the students. • Perform a research with all stakeholders related to this Project, including those students and mothers that are not participant of the Coletivo, in order to listen to them, understand their needs, and offer solutions to fulfill these gaps. and on the side of the • Perform partnerships with educational institutions to make viable other type of courses, more technical, but that have a relation with the core business of Coca-Cola Brasil, such as marketing. • Implement the Coca-Cola University, already existed at the Company. • Create courses or activities focused on the children. Regarding the impossibilities, the findings are: • Improve the basic sanitation of the communities. • Improve the safety on the communities. • Provide a home to those do not have. • Implement courses that have no relationship with Coca-Cola business and expertise, such as gastronomy. However, Coca-Cola can influence stakeholders on that. The results suggest to executives of Coca-Cola that a deep and a qualitative research on the communities of Brazil, in order to listen young people, educators, mothers, partners that offer jobs, from Coletivo and out of the project, is mandatory, to understand their needs, dreams, complains and offer valuable solutions to all.

Neste trabalho avaliamos, sob a Ûtica macroeconÙmica, o custo do atraso educacional brasileiro. Utilizamos uma vers„o do modelo de crescimento neocl·ssico com formulaÁ„o minceriana para o capital humano no qual, para uma parametrizaÁ„o apropriada, simulamos o impacto sobre os agregados macroeconÙmicos de um perÖl factÌvel de gasto em educaÁ„o com gastos sistematicamente maiores a partir de 1933. Gastos mais elevados permitiriam matrÌculas adicionais no ensino p˙blico e a maior escolaridade da populaÁ„o aumentaria a produtividade do trabalho, impactando sobre os agregados macro. Dessa forma, esta abordagem requer o valor de gastos por aluno, de modo que reproduzimos aqui o n˙mero anual de matrÌculas iniciais nos trÍs nÌveis de ensino (prim·rio, secund·rio e terci·rio), a taxa de matrÌcula bruta para cada um desses nÌveis de 1933 a 2005 e uma sugest„o de c·lculo de uma sÈrie histÛrica de gastos em educaÁ„o para o referido perÌodo. Seguindo esta abordagem, o PIB em 2004, por exemplo, poderia ser sido atÈ 27% maior do que o observado. Uma outra quest„o que buscamos responder nesse trabalho È o impacto sobre os agregados macroenÙmicos da universalizaÁ„o dos ensinos prim·rio e secund·rio j· nos anos 50 e 60. Embora tal polÌtica pudesse ter levado a um produto 26% maior em 2004, esta requeriria investimentos substanciais em educaÁ„o, algo superior a 10% do PIB de 1958 a 1962, por exemplo.

Este trabalho visa mostrar a importância do estreitamento dos laços entre as instituições educacionais e os museus nacionais. Essa relação é fundamental para abertura de horizontes culturais dos alunos enquanto criança ou adolescente, influenciando diretamente na sua formação escolar e em seus valores de patrimônio artístico. Essa importância pôde ser comprovada na pesquisa aplicada aos estudantes do ensino fundamental do IEPIC - Instituto de Educação Professor Ismael Coutinho, em Niterói – RJ, em parceria com o Museu Antônio Parreiras. Apesar do museu ser localizado ao lado da escola, muitos alunos nunca o haviam visitado e nem sabiam da sua existência. As escolas devem contribuir com a criação de projetos que incluam visitas a museus e contatos diretos com obras de arte. Assim como os educadores devem estimular a valorização do patrimônio artístico local, chamando atenção para o conhecimento e preservação do mesmo. Essas experiências representam um assimilar de atitudes que se refletirão positivamente na vida adulta do aluno. Uma relação sólida entre escola e museu permitirá ao aluno uma aprendizagem baseada no diálogo com a obra de arte que incentivará o ato criativo e a procura pela originalidade, bem como o capacitará como agente multiplicador desse saber a colegas de aula, amigos, familiares e à comunidade a que pertence.

Este estudo aborda o emprego de estratégias interculturais para conseguir competitividade organizacional em diferentes situações, tais como fusões alianças para negócios internacionais, servIços a clientes internacionais e comércio exterior. Em busca desse objetivo, a pesquisa de campo foi realizada em cinco diferentes organizações, entre as quaIs duas são instituições de ensmo, nas quaIs estudantes em comércio e negócios internacional foram entrevistados individualmente e em grupos. Nessa busca por fundamentos para postura educacional e habilidades interculturais, Simón Bolívar foi considerado urna inspiração, em especial devido à sua preocupação com o mútuo entendimento entre as nações latino-americanas, uma questão que está nas raízes de qualquer possibilidade de superar desafios interculturais. Além disso, os ideais daquele reconhecido líder emergem fortemente, quando essas nações estão decididas a estabelecer o MERCOSUL. As conclusões deste estudo não simplesmente mostram que esforços interculturais estão atualmente presentes nas estratégias de gestão e de negócios nas organizações e grupos enfocados, mas também encontra uma orientação, o que em termos fenomenológicos é um sentido voltado á compreensão intercultural, a qual é vista como uma atitude básica para fusões e negócios internacionais serem bem sucedidos.

This study has the objective to verify the behavior of Brazilian workers residents in the state of Rio de Janeiro, throughout theirs labor life, concerning their ability to remain - and specialize - in the same professional area originally chosen in its superior educational graduation. As the proposed theme stands beyond the available bibliography, the author needed to analyze the Governmental Labor Ministry Statistical Databases, which provides Brazilian Formal Employment and Unemployment Information. The study started with the selection of three groups of professional occupations from the year of 1994 until the end of 2002. All the professionals who were employed in 1994 had had its trajectory traced up to 2002, as well as were analyzed the ingression behavior at the formal labor market in the year of 1994. Thus, the study encompasses not only the existing employment but also the new job posts created in 1994. For the trajectory tracing, a group of graduated students was selected in some universities of the state of Rio de Janeiro in the year of 1994. The study has clearly shown the impact that the availability of jobs in the same area of the graduation has over the workers decision to remain or change the original career. Such information and conclusions can be a valuable instrument to help students and professionals to plan and decide theirs futures careers, for the planning of public politics of educational investments, as well as for the Brazilian educational institutions to adjust the offering of its courses according to the labor market capacity.

The establishment of the Nova Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (New Law of Policies and Basis of the National Education) was a mark for the Brazilian educational sector. The institutions of advanced education began to seek two major objectives: the continuous improvement of your academic, pedagogic and administrative practice and the elimination of resources waste. Beyond the implementation of the New Law of Policies and Basis of the National Education, many were the factors that contributed for the change of the paradigms of management of the Institutions of Advanced Education in Brazil. Some of these factors are the following: a) Increasing competition. The competition, each time more present in the day-to- day of the Institutions of Advanced Education, that was regional and closed by, it¿s now professional and global.b) Implantation of the mechanism of quality control, for example the Provão (Exam), by the Ministry of Education.c) Increasing demand for the advanced courses, since the number of students concluding the Middle level courses has being increasing gradually in the last years. d) Education has become a critical factor in the competition between nations, regions and companies.In the present moment, marked by intense competition, complex academic and administrative processes, technologic information as a condition ¿ sine qua non¿ for the decisive process and the exigency for modern and cooperated management, demands big changes in the way the educational institutions manage their resources and evaluate the performance of their administrators.The study demonstrates the pressing necessity of implanting a Control Management that will assist the administration of the Institution of Advanced Education in a way that will optimize the economic results of the entity, as well as the creation and implementation of the mechanisms that will bring a better understanding of the environment in which the entity lives and operates.

A cada dia aumentam os requerimentos por mão-de-obra especializada na área de gestão. Em decorrência deste aumento de demanda, o mercado também passa a requerer mais, desta mão-de-obra que é insumo dos resultados empresariais. Isto impõe que as instituições de ensino estejam muito alinhadas com o mercado, visando apresentar ofertas que atendam na plenitude os novos requerimentos destas organizações. O objetivo deste trabalho foi levantar a percepção dos contratantes empresariais, observando quais fatores estes contratantes consideram relevantes no momento da contratação de candidatos pósgraduados com título de MBA. Buscou-se tomar como referência o quanto, determinadas características associadas à formação do profissional imputam maior peso, ou não, no processo seletivo, sempre assumindo a premissa de que o MBA é um componente relevante no processo decisório para as contratações em discussão. O trabalho foi realizado com a utilização de uma pesquisa qualitativa, a partir de entrevistas em profundidade realizadas com contratantes de empresas médias e grandes nas cidades do Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo. Os resultados observados permitiram elencar categorias como o conhecimento técnico, experiência profissional, fator diferencial, habilidade na tomada de decisão, flexibilidade, liderança, trabalho em equipe, comunicação e relacionamento interpessoal, capacidade de aprendizado e desenvolvimento pessoal. Pelo aspecto da instituição, a marca do MBA também mostrou ter relevância. O estudo também aponta a percepção negativa, gerada pela competição excessiva, a despeito da preservação dos parâmetros de qualidade da oferta, gerando a perda de prestígio da instituição junto a estes contratantes. Finalmente o trabalho lança insights sobre o tema, e pode servir de base para desdobramentos e novas pesquisas.
