Programa de intervenção de atividade desportiva, em centros comunitários do funchal, junto de populações jovens em risco: avaliação ao nível de atitudes e inclusão social

A pobreza e exclusão social são graves problemas que habitualmente surgem interligados e carecem de intervenção. A Educação das crianças e jovens é uma responsabilidade social, sendo fundamental procurar soluções no sentido da prevenção ou reinserção dos jovens em risco. Diversos estudos têm concluído que o desporto pode assumir-se como fator de proteção, contra um percurso de insucesso educativo e/ou humano desenvolvendo valores éticos, morais e culturais, no entanto é indispensável saber preservar os seus valores essenciais. Este estudo procura avaliar um programa de atividades físicas e desportivas, no qual jovens em risco participam, analisando a perceção destes em relação aos valores no desporto, e a perspetiva dos técnicos sociais que trabalham com estas populações, relativamente ao contributo do desporto nos processos de inclusão/reinserção social. Para avaliar os fatores aptos a promover o Desportivismo e Atitudes pró-sociais no desporto infanto-juvenil, utilizámos o questionário Sports Attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ), e realizámos entrevistas guiadas aos técnicos. Na análise dos dados, recorremos a procedimentos da estatística descritiva (média, desvio padrão, variância, mínimo, máximo e percentagem) para comparar variáveis, utilizámos o teste t e, quando estas apresentaram mais de duas categorias, a análise da variância (ANOVA). O nível de significância utilizado foi p ≤ 0.05. Recorremos ainda à análise de conteúdo, nas respostas dadas pelos inquiridos nas entrevistas. Através dos resultados obtidos: a) discordância categórica dos jovens relativamente aos comportamentos dos fatores “Batota” e “Anti-desportivismo”; b) resposta com indicador mais baixo ser “Por vezes faço batota para obter vantagem”; c) concordância evidenciada nas respostas aos comportamentos e atitudes dos fatores “Empenho” e “Convenção”; d) opinião unânime dos técnicos relativamente ao contributo essencial, na formação dos jovens, dos programas de atividades desportivas; concluímos que a prática destas são um meio adequado para desenvolver atitudes e valores pró-sociais, nas crianças e jovens em situação de risco.

Morfologia externa, composição corporal e performance motora do praticante de atletismo madeirense : um estudo em atletas dos 11-17 anos de idade

Os objetivos centrais da presente pesquisa foram quatro: (1) recolher informação nos domínios do crescimento físico humano, composição corporal, tipo físico, aptidão física e prática desportiva do atleta infanto-juvenil praticante de atletismo; (2) estudar a variação associada à idade e ao sexo; (3) investigar as diferenças entre atletas e não-atletas; e (4) identificar os preditores da capacidade funcional. A amostra foi constituída por 105 praticantes de atletismo, 49 do sexo masculino e 56 do sexo feminino, com idades compreendidas entre os 11 e os 17 anos, de cinco clubes da Região Autónoma da Madeira. As variáveis de estudo incluíram a altura, o peso corporal, os diâmetros ósseos, os perímetros musculares, as pregas de adiposidade subcutânea, a massa isenta de gordura (MIG), a massa gorda, o tipo físico, os testes motores, e os anos e as horas de treino semanal. Os ‘scores’ Z, os testes t-student e Mann-Whitney U, a ANOVA e a regressão linear múltipla foram os procedimentos estatísticos utilizados nas análises. O atleta do sexo masculino foi mais alto, pesado, robusto e apresentou mais MIG do que o sexo feminino (p<0,05). Os atletas apresentaram um físico mesomorfo equilibrado (sexo masculino) e meso-endomorfo (sexo feminino). Os rapazes apresentaram valores significativamente superiores na aptidão física geral e específica, comparativamente às raparigas. As raparigas apresentaram melhores desempenhos no ‘sit and reach’(p<0,05). Os valores médios para a altura, peso corporal, testes motores e características da prática desportiva foram superiores nas atletas mais velhas (p<0,05). Os praticantes de atletismo apresentaram menos gordura subcutânea e melhores desempenhos no salto em comprimento sem corrida preparatória e corrida de 12 minutos, do que as não-atletas. A altura, a percentagem de gordura, os anos de prática desportiva e o número de horas de treino por semana foram os preditores que mais contribuíram para explicar a variância nos testes motores.Os resultados demonstraram um dimorfismo entre atletas do sexo masculino e feminino. O treino estava associado a melhores desempenhos nos testes motores e a valores mais baixos de gordura corporal. A altura, a gordura corporal e as características da prática desportiva foram importantes na predição da capacidade funcional.

A tecnologia móvel como potencializadora no desenvolvimento do protagonismo infantil: um olhar sobre inovação pedagógica

O desenvolvimento das Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TIC) têm revolucionado a sociedade contemporânea, a escola nesse contexto é chamada a incorporar esses recursos não de forma acrítica ou como recurso auxiliar de ensino, mas como potencializador da construção do conhecimento. O Governo brasileiro através de políticas públicas educacionais vêm disseminando o uso das TIC nas escolas através de programas a exemplo do PROINFO e PROUCA, este último visa a distribuição de laptops educacionais na modalidade 1-1 às crianças. Essa pesquisa visa compreender as práticas pedagógicas na perspectiva de sua consideração como sendo ou não efetiva na melhoria objetivada enquanto inovação pedagógica e promoção do protagonismo infanto juvenil. Para tanto, foi necessário verificar se a utilização desse dispositivo móvel tem contribuído para a construção do conhecimento a ponto de permitir considerar as práticas pedagógicas como inovação pedagógica. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa de cunho etnográfico com análise de conteúdo, utilizando-se entrevistas com 10 professores e 30 alunos e observações participantes, fundamentada na abordagem Construcionista de Seymour Papert, base de sustentação teórica para a análise dos resultados. O estudo evidenciou, categorias, como: construção do conhecimento, mudança de prática, dificuldades e limitações, motivação e fascínio, mobilidade, acesso a internet, habilidades, autonomia, colaboração e autoria, através das quais foi possível compreender o objeto, como uma potencialidade, visto que, a persistência e a busca alternativa se fizeram presentes na superação gradativa das limitações e entraves que se mostraram no decorrer da pesquisa.

Racionalidade substantiva no processo decisório: um estudo em instituições que lidam com o tratamento oncológico infantojuvenil na cidade de Natal-RN

The present study regards an applied social research (qualitative) performed in two institutions which lead children s cancer treatment in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The main goal of this study is, as of a literature review at works which characterizes the first generations of study about substantive rationality, to detect Decision Making process related aspects that may serve as a basis to elaborate analysis categories from decision making process, aggregating them into a new study that may provide an advance to the theme in administrative science. The academic works based on the analysis model created by Mauricio Serva served as a basis to deep research into such theme, which verifies the predominant rationality in eleven administrative internal processes in productive organizations. This dissertation intends to go beyond the identification of the predominant rationality by elaborating new categories of analysis, and making possible the continuity of the subject in administrative science. Based on Guerreiro Ramos s work, which sees a kind of ideal organization, as known as isonomies, this study still calls upon Karl Polanyi s thoughts, which with the objective of comprehending the independent economic phenomenon of the value that allows considering non-market economies, find that the economy of the men is submerged in his social relations; it also rescues the studies from Max Weber who investigates the meaning of social action to better understand the rationality, and refers to the study of Jürgen Habermas, who proposes a broader conception about rationality, within the theory of communicative action. As a result of this theme s review, seven analysis categories of the decision making process have been formulated. They were applied in the institutions that had been chosen and helped to detect the type of predominant rationality in the categories of the decision making process. The results confirm that, although the decisions making process involves rational elements, such as information, identification of alternatives, there are also specific values of each individual with his experience and view oh the world, permeated not only by instrumental rationality, but also by substantive rationality. The study has verified that two similar institutions may show different types of rationality in the decision making process, when decision factors may tend to instrumental rationality, according to administration classic way, as well as they may emerge from substantive rationality, thus contributing to the process of emancipation of the human being in his sphere of work

Estrutura de organizações sociais: adaptação aos projetos sociais ou às pressões institucionais?

It was observed the presence from normative, coercive and mimetic mechanisms, highlighting normative influences

Voleibol brasileiro : parâmetros fenotípicos e genotípicos na seleção de atletas

Objective: Identify phenotype and genotype parameters of female volleyball players at different performance levels to help in player selection. Methods: We identified characteristics of phenotype and genotype using the somatotype method (Heath Carter); anthropometry (weight, height and fat percentage); dermatoglyphics (Cummins and Midlo s method) as well as applying physical quality tests (Shuttle Run to assess agility and the Sargent Jump Test adapted for spike and block reach). The sample was composed of 179 players (54 from national teams and 125 from state teams). Results: Somatotype was similar among the performance levels in the mesomorphic component. The Height and ectomorphic component were greater in national team players as was spike and block reach. The vertical jump height for the spike was similar between the national under-17 team and the state teams observed, but in the block jump the lower level players were better. The dermatoglyphics characteristics identified were similar among the groups studied. Conclusions: The results of the variables studied show that somatotype, height, spike reach and block reach are fundamental parameters in player selection and in the specific characteristics of each game position of this sport. This paper proposes a multidisciplinary approach applicable in the fields of physical education, medicine and nutrition

Repercussões sociais da violência contra crianças e adolescentes: deliqüência

This research is responsible for the investigation and problematization of the violence production process in children and teenagers through deviant behaviour, especially the drug s use and traffic, given that the deviant behaviour named juvenile criminality is something built and that can t be disassociated from the social and institutional relations that are ideological and violent, as well as the construction of, social and individual, positive identities can become important instruments for the process of democratization and the effective juvenile citizenship. In relation to the teorical referential, the work was developed from readings beyond the social science camp, without getting far from it, searching for support in other scientific camps and making your bases on Manuel Castells formulations about the power of the identity, and on Nancy Fraser and Axel Honneth in relation to the recognition struggle. In the empiric field, the discourses and graphic representations from twenty four children and teenagers that attend a social project were privileged, and compared to those shown at the documentary and the book Falcão Meninos do Tráfico produced by MV Bill, in relation to the social profile and life trajectory. From the study subjects' perspective, the data suggest that the children and the teenagers conceive violence as a natural thing, either as victims or persecutors. However, the research shows that, despite the subjects of the two studied groups reveled in your discourses the influence of the violent relations in their daily lives, the subjects got recognition during the process of identity construction by the groups with which they maintained the sense of belonging, either it being the family, the community or the school, they were positively influenced and established a positive representation of themselves and didn t show any deviant and violent tendency or behaviour. Therefore, we demonstrate the role of the school for an education for peace, as well as the participation of the family, the community and the stimulation of the juvenile protagonism as transforming practices, capable of awaking the citizenship and avoiding the construction of people that reproduce deviant and violent behaviour

Luna Clara e o Apolo Onze do arquivo ao repertório : o limiar de uma transescritura em Adriana Falcão

La palabra archivo tiene origen en el vocablo griego arkhê, en lo cual puede indicar comienzo y comando. Tal palabra puede ser usada para representar distintas ideas. Al ser considerada como un conjunto, puede reunir las informaciones existentes sobre un determinado asunto en cualquier área del conocimiento humano.(DERRIDA, 2001) Esas informaciones, por su vez, son constantemente modificadas por el repertorio de los usuarios de eses archivos. Cada individuo, al usar ese repertorio, lo hace de una manera diferente, pues las posibilidades son variadas. Entre estas, está la performance, que permite la elaboración de una transescritura, un modo de escribir que va más adelante del padrón convencional. Para que sea comprendida como tal, la escritura necesita realizar una transgresión, quebrar el canónico.(RAVETTI,2003) Adriana Falcão transgride, al consultar el archivo y reinventarlo a partir de su propio repertorio, llegando a realizar una transescritura. En el romance Luna Clara e Apolo Onze (2002). En este, archivo y repertorio están en constante mescla, criando nuevas relaciones entre literatura, historia, mitologia, lengua, artes, temas humanos y sociales. El romance es entonces percibido como una narrativa que performatiza nombres, hogares, conceptos, ideas, a través de una marca que por ser tan plural es única, peculiar, representación de la literatura infante-juvenil del siglo 21
