Conteúdos de formação profissional nos Cursos de administração : estudo da oferta nos Estados do Ceará, Paraíba e Rio Grande do Norte

Os cursos presenciais de Administração do Brasil enfrentam uma situação onde o mercado de trabalho não contrata prioritariamente seus egressos, o que remete a um entendimento de que as Instituições de Ensino Superior [IES] não estão suprindo adequadamente seus alunos com os conhecimentos profissionais necessários para terem as habilidades e competências exigidas por este mercado, conhecimentos estes que são preconizados pelas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais [DCNs] e que direcionam os currículos dos cursos ao atendimento das exigências do mercado. Esta investigação, de natureza qualitativa e articulada com dados quantitativos, inicialmente tem o intento de identificar o alinhamento entre os currículos praticados pelas IES e as DCNs, no que se refere aos conteúdos profissionais, e posteriormente compreender a percepção dos coordenadores de universidades dos estados do Ceará, Paraíba e Rio Grande do Norte, acerca da relação entre as DCNs, os currículos praticados nas IES e o mercado. Para viabilizar esta investigação, documentos das IES [currículos] coletados em seus sítios eletrônicos foram utilizados para identificação do alinhamento com as DCNs por intermédio da técnica de palavras indutoras e induzidas de Bardin. Foi utilizado também como instrumento de coleta um questionário não estruturado, que foi aplicado aos coordenadores de curso através de guião próprio. As entrevistas foram transcritas e analisadas por meio da técnica de grelha analítica de Bardin, os dados resultantes foram triangulados com os da investigação documental para melhor entender os fenômenos detectados. Os resultados obtidos indicam que as IES praticam currículos com pouca adesão aos conteúdos profissionais Teorias das Organizações e Administração de Serviços, enquanto conteúdos relacionados à Planejamento, Finanças, Mercado e Produção tem alta adesão. Percebeu-se também a existência de uma estreita relação entre Mercado, DCNs e Currículo, que interagem e se relacionam de forma interdependente, onde o mercado figura como principal vértice. Entendeu-se que as DCNs são percebidas ao mesmo tempo como flexíveis e definidoras dos conteúdos praticados nos currículos, que apresentam-se como disciplinas ministradas nos cursos, onde a relação teoria X prática ainda é pífia no processo de ensino aprendizagem. Percebeu-se ainda que o mercado cada vez mais faz exigências e impõe condições técnicas para absorver os administradores formados, ao mesmo tempo em que as IES não conseguem formá-los, verificando-se como prováveis causas, o não atendimento às DCNs e a falta de um relacionamento mais próximo com o mercado, bem como a falta de acompanhamento dos seus egressos.

Aspectos sedimentológicos e petrológicos dos Beachrocks do estado do Rio Grande do Norte

A maior parte dos beachrocks distribuídos ao longo das costas oriental e setentrional do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (53% da espessura total) foi depositada na zona de ante-praia superior, representada pelas litofácies arenitos com estratificação cruzada tabular-planar e acanalada de média escala e arenitos conglomeráticos bioturbados por Skolithos. Conglomerados e arenitos com estratificação cruzada de baixo ângulo, depositados na zona de estirâncio, representam 31% das seções descritas. Os 16% restantes são atribuídos ao colapso de material sobrejacente como resultado de solapamento basal de falésias (conglomerados maciços), de transporte como tapetes de tração (conglomerados incipientemente estratificados) e de alto grau de alteração (arenitos maciços). Uma sucessão geral de fases diagenéticas pode ser reconhecida, nos beachrocks estudados, incluindo a precipitação de esmectita autigênica, cutículas micríticas, agregados radiais, franjas isópacas de cristais prismáticos, espato equante, cimento criptocristalino de preenchimento de poros e agregados pseudo-peloidais, bem como a infiltração vadosa de sedimentos micríticos, margosos ou sílticos A ausência de estruturas orgânicas, tais como filamentos e corpos microbiais (bactérias ou fungos), dentro dos cimentos, sugere que o mecanismo por trás da cimentação é essencialmente inorgânico, muito provavelmente devido à evaporação de água do mar, em resposta às condições climáticas secas prevalecentes. Os valores de 13CVPDB máximo, mínimo e médio obtidos para os cimentos são +3.57, –7.8 e +2.34‰, respectivamente. Os valores de 18OSMOW e 18OVPDB variam de 26.32 a 31.41 (valor médio: 30.64) e de –4.41 a 0.54‰ (valor médio: –0.22‰), respectivamente. A maior parte dos valores de 18OVPDB e 13CVPDB é compatível com os de cimentos marinhos. Algumas amostras apresentam valores de 18O fortemente negativos, o que provavelmente reflete uma origem a partir de uma mistura de águas marinhas e meteóricas ou recristalização do cimento marinho através da interação com águas meteóricas. As temperaturas de precipitação assumindo 18OVPDB da água igual a 2,0 (água do mar modificada por evaporação) e -2,0 (água mista, em boa parte meteórica) variam de 23,3 a 34,9oC (valor médio: 25,8oC).

Análise dos fatores que dificultam a implementação da política ambiental do plano de desenvolvimento sustentável do Rio Grande do Norte

Num contexto marcado pela difusão e consolidação do conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável e como desdobramento do Projeto Áridas - estratégia de desenvolvimento sustentável para o Nordeste brasileiro - é promulgado, em 1997, o Plano de Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Rio Grande do Norte - P.D.S./R.N.. Constatado o insatisfatório grau de cumprimento de suas ações, esta tese busca identificar e analisar os fatores que dificultam a implementação do P.D.S./R.N.. Dadas a diversidade e a complexidade dos temas abordados no Plano potiguar, optou-se por fazer um recorte de uma de suas polítcas - a Política Ambiental - já que a economia norte rio-grandense tem se baseado, nas últimas décadas, sobretudo, na exploração de recursos naturais, na fruticultura e no turismo. A fim de checar o pressuposto assumido pelo presente trabalho - o de que dificuldade de implementação da Política Ambiental contida no P.D.S./R.N. deve-se, de um lado, à ineficiência do Estado e de outro, à baixa capacidade de articulação dos atores sociais - utilizou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica, a investigação documental e a pesquisa de campo com entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Por fim, em contraposição aos fatores identificados como dificultadores do processo de implementação da Política Ambiental, são sugeridos aspectos passíveis de aumentar as possibilidades de sucesso de uma política dessa natureza.

Achados fundoscópicos em crianças portadoras de anemia falciforme no estado do Rio Grande do Norte

Detectar os principais achados fundoscópicos em crianças portadoras de hemoglobinopatias falciformes. Métodos: Foram estudados 26 pacientes com hemoglobinopatias falciformes, no Serviço de Oftalmologia do Hospital Universitário Onofre Lopes, Natal, RN, que foram submetidos a protocolo de pesquisa pré-estabelecido. Os resultados foram avaliados estatisticamente pelo teste qui-quadrado. Resultados: A idade média foi de 10,6 anos, com acuidade visual igual ou melhor que 20/25 na maioria, excetuando-se 3 olhos, que apresentavam outras doenças associadas. O tipo mais freqüente foi o SS com 57,7% (15/26) dos casos, seguido pelos SC e SA com 15,4% (4/26) cada, e pelo S-Thal com 11,5% (3/26). A freqüência da retinopatia por células falciformes foi maior após os 10 anos de idade, sendo mais freqüente, em valores relativos, no tipo S-Thal (100% dos casos) e, em valores absolutos, no tipo SS (9 casos). Os dois achados mais comuns foram tortuosidade venosa (12/26) e “black sunburst” (7/26). Conclusões: Observamos que a incidência de retinopatia por células falciformes aumentou após os 10 anos de idade e não evidenciamos achados da doença proliferativa. Portanto, enfatizamos a necessidade do exame oftalmológico precoce nos portadores de anemia falciforme, como forma de prevenir futuras complicações oculares

Programa de aquisição de alimentos (2003-2010): avaliação da implementação pela CONAB no Rio Grande do Norte

This thesis aimed to evaluate the implementation of the Food Acquisition Program(PAA) through CONAB RN in the period of 2003-2010 with the perception of all agents involved in the implementation of the government program.For the methodological trajectory it was adopted a descriptive bibliographical and documentary approach with triangular qualitative and quantitative, also called evaluative research.The theoretical model was supported by the authors Draibe (2001), Aguilar and Ander-Egg (1994) and Silva(2001), among others, that focused on family farming and evaluation of implementation of public policy having as a category of analysis the size implementation of policy and the latter divided into 10 theoretical dimensions.The universe consisted of three groups: the first were the managers and technicians from CONAB(RN and Brasilia), totaling 15 subjects. The second group was of associations/cooperatives that participated in the programin 2010, totaling a sample in each access of 15 representatives. The third group of subjects totaled with 309 representatives of governmental and non-governmental organizations that received donations of food for the same period. Semi-structured interviews and forms were adopted as instruments of data collection.The data were processed qualitatively by the analysis of content (interviews and documents) and quantitatively by means of statistical tests that allowed inferences and adoption of frequencies. Among the key find ingests that the program is not standing as a structure supported by planning. The interests of the performers do not necessarily converge with the objectives of the Food Acquisition Program (PAA). A shockof goals was identified (within the same program) when comparingthe financial agent (Ministry of Rural Development and of Social Development and Fight Against Hunger Ministry r) and the executor, CONAB/RN. Within the assessed dimensions, the most fragileis the sub-managerial decision-making and Organizational Environment and internal assessment, still deserves attention the sizeof logistical and operational Subsystem, as this also proved weak.The focusin the quest toexpand thequantificationof the resultsof theFood Acquisition Program (PAA)by CONAB/RN does forget a quality management focused on what really should be:the compliance with the institutional objectives of the government program.Finally, the perspective for the traded implementation should be re-examined because excessive discretion by managers along with technical staff has characterized there al role of the Food Acquisition Program (PAA) as public policy. We conclude that the implementation model, which apparently aggregates values to the benefitted citizens, has weakened the context of work on family farms having the management model of the implementation process be reviewed by the Federal Government and point too ther paths, which have as a guide line the emancipation and developmentof the field or in the field andat the same time enables the reduction of nutritional deficiency of beneficiaries in a balanced and coherent way

Fatores de longevidade do programa Central do Cidadão no Rio Grande do Norte

The public management reform in Brazil, since 1995, provoked new experiences in public administration. Among the new models of public service the one-stop shopping has distinguished and was adopted at Rio Grande do Norte with the Citizens Center Program. The one-stop shopping assembles in the same place many public services with appropriate structure, enabled human resources and citizens focus processes. The goal of this research was understand how citizens focus processes help to explain Citizens Center Program s longevity. It was made a case study and the research tools were applied with Citizen Center Programs workers and citizen-users at South Unit of Citizen Center Program placed at Via Direta Mall, Natal. The major contributions for Citizen Center Program s longevity were imputed to Basic Operation Processes. The most spoken features in Citizen Center Program mentioned were quality, efficiency, celerity e personal appearance, what demonstrate concern and care with citizen-users. Worker s personal appearance, accommodation, celerity, politeness and attending capacity planning were high evaluated by citizen-users revealing the wisely choice of use a large quality concept and citizenship concept in public administration. Citizen-users also pointed the necessity of refine and enlarge the communication ways that form an essential mechanism to public citizen focus administration. Not ignoring the policy aspect citizen focus processes were noticed like especial management actions that make easier citizen s activities and public service access, what generate satisfaction to citizen-users. It s possible to conclude that the high level approving evaluation of Citizen Center Program consolidates it an especial public policy that serves citizen s necessities e create appropriate legitimacy conditions of the public policy making harder the choice of ending the policy even in more fragile moments strongly contributing for its longevity

Política de promoção da exportação : um olhar sobre a evolução da cultura de melão do Rio Grande do Norte

Some sectors in Brazil are earning notoriety in the international market, configuring itself in dynamic areas for the Country. The most typical case is the agribusiness. Rio Grande do Norte state has important role, because 90% of the output of the melon exported by Brazil is produced at Assu/Mossoró. The present work planned to verify the evolution of the culture of the melon produced at Assu/Mossoró area, from 1990 to 2003. Through descriptive research, utilizing the case study and documentary analysis of secondary data this work showed the evolution of the area reaped of melon in the pole Assu/Mossoró, the quantity produced of melon and of the value of the output of the melon between 1990 and 2003. The research verified that all of the factors studied show growth during the analyzed period, showing up the importance of the agribusiness for the region. However the analysis shows the vulnerability of the sector concerning external macroeconomics factors, such as the exchange rates. Showing the importance and/or dependence of the producers for public actions to development of the culture, that might be on areas like infrastructure, economics or taxes

Responsabilidade social: visões e perspectivas de empresários do segmento industrial do Rio Grande do Norte

The theme Corporate Social Responsibility is relatively recent both in the academic field and in the business practice. Because of the lack of socialization of experiences and precision of concepts, there are gaps regarding the understanding of the subject and, also, how to conduct operations. This study just seeks to investigate such matter, focusing applications of social responsibility in business. It takes, as empirical field, winners of the PSQT - SESI Prize of Quality at Work in Rio Grande do Norte (2002-2007) in order to systematize the various approaches on the issue, aiming to reveal subjective visions and perspectives of the theme. It is characterized as a qualitative study, carried out by structured interview. The universe was composed by 15 companies. It was used analysis of content categorical as an axis for the interpretation of the information. Three approaches guided the analysis: Business Ethics, (normative); Business & Society (contractual); Social Issues Management (strategic). The findings are related in three ways: 1) reasons for the CSR practice; 2) the results obtained; 3) the means of CSR. It was found that the award participation occurs, mostly, linked to SESI invitations, so, as an articulated movement of industrial corporations in Brazil it occurs, also, because of the organizational commitment with the society and the possibility of internal and social growths and because of the importance attributed to the report as an instrument of consultancy. There are no indicators to check impacts of organizational interventions, in spite of the existence of planning for the actions. Social responsibility appears as a tool to reinforce the organizational image and to increase satisfaction of the employees. There is a tendency of large and medium firms to a contractual commitment while the small and the micros firms are on strategic or normative level. The analysis of the perspectives of social responsibility future revealed trends towards for strategic approach

Metodologias de serviços públicos de ater: estudo em instituições do Rio Grande do Norte

Due to the appreciation of family farming by the Brazilian Federal Government, the Technical Assistance and Rural Extension was induced to restructure and act in a more participative way, culminating in the National Policy of Technical Assistance and Rural Extension (PNATER), changing the profile of technology transfer and knowledge (diffusionism) for an action that uses participatory methodologies focused on exchange of knowledge between farmers and technicians. The process of discussion of the trends of ATER brought the New ATER , with the recognition of agroecology as the main guidance. This research aimed to analyze methods of public ATER developed by institutions of Rio Grande do Norte, under the guidance of New ATER. The research is qualitative. Secondary data were collected through documental research and literature. Primary data were collected through a set of interviews applied to representatives of public institutions ATER, namely EMATER-RN, Diaconia and AACC and representatives of organizations that receive public ATER. The research showed the difficulties of EMATER-RN in implementing of New ATER due to lack of infrastructure and low adherence of the new form of technical assistance and rural extension. It was shown also that the AACC and Diaconia act with ATER through projects with implementation deadlines set, often interrupting ATER while communities are still in need of assistance

Os programas de incentivo à cultura e o processo de fomento às organizações culturais no rio grande do norte: o caso da Casa da Ribeira em Natal

Since the emergence of the first demands for actions that were intended to give greater attention to culture in Brazil, came the first discussions which concerned the way the Brazilian government could have a positive influence in encouraging the culture, as is its interaction with the actors interested and involved with the cause. During the military dictatorship, there were programs which relied on the direct participation of the State to ensure that right, from the viewpoint of its support and implementation of public resources in developing the "cultural product" to be brought to society in its various forms of expression - all this, funded by the government. It is an example of "EMBRAFILMES" and "Projeto Seis e Meia", continued until the present day in some regions of the country, though maintained by entities not directly connected with the administration or the government. However, it was from the period of democratization and the end of the dictatorship that the Brazilian government began to look at the different culture, under its guarantee to the society. Came the first incentive laws, led by "Lei Sarney" Nº 7.505/86, which was culture as a segment which could receive foreign assistance in order to assist the government in fulfilling its public duty. After Collor era and the end of the embargo through the encouragement of culture incentive laws, consolidated the incentive model proposed in advance of Culture "Lei Sarney" and the federal laws, state and local regimentares as close to this action. This applies to the Rouanet Law (Lei Rouanet), Câmara Cascudo Law (Lei Câmara Cascudo) and Djalma Maranhão Cultural Incentive Law (Lei de Incentivo à Cultura Djalma Maranhão), existing in Natal and Rio Grande do Norte. Since then, business entities could help groups and cultural organizations to keep their work from the political sponsorship under control and regiment through the Brazilian state in the form of their Cultural Incentive Law. This framework has contributed to the strengthening of NGOs and with the consolidation of these institutions as the linchpin of Republican guaranteeing the right to access to culture, but corporate social responsibility was the one who took off in the segment treated here, through the actions of Responsibility Cultural enterprises arising from the Cultural Organizations. Therefore, in the face of this discourse, this study ascertains the process of encouraging the Culture in Rio Grande do Norte from the Deviant Case Analysis at the Casa da Ribeira, the main Cultural Organization that operates, focused action in Natal in order to assess the relationships established between the same entity and the institutions which are entitled to maintain the process of encouraging treated in this study - Enterprise, from the viewpoint of corporate sponsorship and Cultural Responsibility and State in the form of the Laws Incentive Funds and Public Culture Incentive

A implementação de ações de integração na segurança pública: o caso das polícias civil e militar do Rio Grande do Norte

The research aimed to understand the challenges for the implementation of the proposed integration between the Civil Police and the Military Police in Rio Grande do Norte to the proposals of the SUSP. This study aimed to explore the gap with regard to the deepening of the possible causes that may hinder the implementation of integrated working between the police in public security, through a specific analysis on the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Was based on a theoretical framework that includes policies: general concepts, the steps of a public policy, the implementation stage , public security : conceptual definitions, policies on security in Brazil, the structure of public security in Brazil and systems police, Military Police x Civil Police: Roles and conflicts , integrating public security: the challenges to be overcome, the Unified public Safety (SUSP) and the main difficulties in the integration of the police. Being classified as to the purposes as an exploratory research on how to approach ranks as qualitative. The research unit was the Center for Integrated Operations Public Safety (CIOSP) through three subjects who were the chief CIOSP, the representative of the military police acting with the CIOSP, and representative civil police also active with the CIOSP. These subjects were chosen because of the understanding that individuals occupying senior positions would have more ability to respond to questions that guide the research problem. Data were collected through a set of interviews, qualitative data analysis was performed based content analysis, based on the definition of categories of analysis, gated time cross. With the results, it was revealed that the main problems of integration between the state police are treatment protocols, lack of political will and lack of infrastructure. The relationship between the Military Police and Civil Police in Rio Grande do Norte has differing cultural aspect, but can be considered as good value, professionalism and integrated operations. The implementation of CIOSP-RN followed the characteristics of the top-down model, the main difficulties in implementing the proposals of the SUSP, lack of own resources, the lack of standardization in public safety and the lack of professional training of public safety. It was concluded that with respect to the challenges to the implementation of the proposed integration between the Civil Police and the Military Police in Rio Grande do Norte to the proposals of the SUSP, the actions follow the characteristics of the top-down model, with no autonomy of administrators public to say in decisions, which restricts the view of the public safety of the state

Autoavaliação institucional na dimensão do SINAES comunicação com a sociedade : estudo de múltiplos casos em instituições de ensino superior do Rio Grande do Norte

This study is about the institutional self-evaluation in Dimension 4, "Communication with Society", from the National System of Higher Education Evaluation SINAES, mandatory for all universities in Brazil. A multiple cases study was conducted with three institutions from Rio Grande do Norte, and the goal was to know how this evaluation is made, describing the concept for the evaluation of communication proposed by them, identifying controllers or emancipator aspects, categorizing methodological procedures and discussing the difficulties reported in the communication evaluation process. Coordinators of the institutions Evaluating Committees were interviewed and data categorized by means of qualitative content analysis. It was noted characteristics of the current controller, emancipator and hybrid designs in the three institutions for evaluation of communication, revealing the lack of a theoretical corpus that transits in accordance with the systemic perspective and epistemology of complexity from SINAES. It was found that the most frequently reported difficulties in the evaluation processes of communication are in the preparation stage, especially in the definition of indicators and tools and awareness work. The weakness in planning makes their own activities in the sector of communication become targets of assessment, forming goals poorly related with broader organizational goals. It was also concluded that the technical evaluation cannot override the issues associated with the broader issue of the complexity surrounding the assessment paradigm proposed by SINAES because contradictions and imperfections are part of the evaluation process and several references are current in the literature to support this view. Finally, it is said that objectives such as transparency and behavioral changes can rely on methodologies and techniques for research on the question of the construction of meaning
