Relatório final de estágio pedagógico

Após todo o processo referente ao Mestrado em Ensino da Educação Física nos Ensinos Básico e Secundário, que tomou parte numa escola secundária no concelho da Amadora, mais especificamente, na Brandoa, Escola Secundária Fernando Namora, no ano letivo de 2011/2012, serve este relatório para dar como finda esta etapa. Este Estágio teve em atenção o Guia de Estágio Pedagógico, do qual constam quatro áreas: 1. Organização e Gestão do Ensino e da Aprendizagem (Área 1); 2. Inovação e Investigação Pedagógica (Área 2); 3. Participação na Escola (Área 3); 4. Relação com a Comunidade (Área 4). Assim, e tendo em conta as competências aglomeradas nestas quatro áreas de referência, foi desenvolvido, ao longo do ano letivo, um projeto com uma turma de 7º ano da já referida escola – Escola Secundária Fernando Namora. Deste relatório constarão as principais análises e reflexões, referentes a todo o trabalho desenvolvido (estratégias, obstáculos, dificuldades, relacionamento, entre outros.), ao longo do ano letivo. Finalmente, apresentarei a reflexão crítica, que pretenderá demonstrar o papel que este Estágio teve na minha formação, tanto pessoal como profissional.

Relatório final de estágio realizado na Escola Básica e Secundária de Carcavelos

Este relatório tem como objetivo a reflexão do Estágio Pedagógico, que foi desenvolvido na Escola Básica e Secundária de Carcavelos, no ano letivo 2014/2015. O estágio está integrado no Mestrado de Ensino da Educação Física nos Ensinos Básico e Secundário, da Faculdade de Motricidade Humana. Os objetivos gerais do Estágio Pedagógico estão estruturados em quatro áreas de intervenção: Organização e Gestão do Ensino e da Aprendizagem (Área 1), Inovação e Investigação Pedagógica (Área 2), Participação na Escola (Área 3) e Relação com a Comunidade (Área 4). O estágio permitiu-me a aquisição de várias competências, nomeadamente através de lecionação das aulas, a elaboração e desenvolvimento de um projeto de investigação, a coadjuvação de um núcleo de Desporto Escolar e o acompanhamento a um Diretor de Turma. Através destas experiências consegui evoluir como profissional de Educação Física, aumentando as minhas competências no processo de condução, planeamento e avaliação. Assim, o presente relatório pretende expor o trabalho desenvolvido adotando uma postura expositiva, reflexiva e integradora do trabalho do professor estagiário.

Integrating eco-innovation principles into regional strategy and policy: case of Päijät-Häme region, Finland

This study focuses on the integration of eco-innovation principles into strategy and policy at the regional level. The importance of regions as a level for integrating eco-innovative programs and activities served as the point of interest for this study. Eco-innovative activities and technologies are seen as means to meet sustainable development objective of improving regions’ quality of life. This study is conducted to get an in-depth understanding and learning about eco-innovation at regional level, and to know the basic concepts that are important in integrating eco-innovation principles into regional policy. Other specific objectives of this study are to know how eco-innovation are developed and practiced in the regions of the EU, and to analyze the main characteristic features of an eco-innovation model that is specifically developed at Päijät-Häme Region in Finland. Paijät-Häme Region is noted for its successful eco-innovation strategies and programs, hence, taken as casework in this study. Both primary (interviews) and secondary data (publicly available documents) are utilized in this study. The study shows that eco-innovation plays an important role in regional strategy as reviewed based on the experience of other regions in the EU. This is because of its localized nature which makes it easier to facilitate in a regional setting. Since regional authorities and policy-makers are normally focused on solving its localized environmental problems, eco-innovation principles can easily be integrated into regional strategy. The case study highlights Päijät-Häme Region’s eco-innovation strategies and projects which are characterized by strong connection of knowledge-producing institutions. Policy instruments supporting eco-innovation (e.g. environmental technologies) are very much focused on clean technologies, hence, justifying the formation of cleantech clusters and business parks in Päijät-Häme Region. A newly conceptualized SAMPO model of eco-innovation has been developed in Päijät-Häme Region to better capture the region’s characteristics and to eventually replace the current model employed by the Päijät-Häme Regional Authority. The SAMPO model is still under construction, however, review of its principles points to some of its three important spearheads – practice-based innovation, design (eco-design) and clean technology or environmental technology (environment).

Crowdsourcing innovation: a strategy to leverage enterprise innovation

Innovation is recognized by academics and practitioners as an essential competitive enabler for any company to survive, to remain competitive and to grow. Investments in tasks of R&D have not always brought the expected results. But that doesn't mean that the outcomes would not be useful to other companies of the same business area or even from another area. Thus, there is much knowledge already available in the market that can be helpful to some and profitable to others. So, the ideas and expertise can be found outside a company's boundaries and also exported from within. Information, knowledge, experience, wisdom is already available in the millions of the human beings of this planet, the challenge is to use them through a network to produce new ideas and tips that can be useful to a company with less costs. This was the reason for the emergence of the area of crowdsourcing innovation. Crowdsourcing innovation is a way of using the Web 2.0 tools to generate new ideas through the heterogeneous knowledge available in the global network of individuals highly qualified and with easy access to information and technology. So, a crowdsourcing innovation broker is an organization that mediates the communication and relationship between the seekers - companies that aspire to solve some problem or to take advantage of any business opportunity - with a crowd that is prone to give ideas based on their knowledge, experience and wisdom. This paper makes a literature review on models of open innovation, crowdsourcing innovation, and technology and knowledge intermediaries, and discusses this new phenomenon as a way to leverage the innovation capacity of enterprises. Finally, the paper outlines a research design agendafor explaining crowdsourcing innovation brokering phenomenon, exploiting its players, main functions, value creation process, and knowledge creation in order to define a knowledge metamodel of such intermediaries.

Iowa Strategy for Homeland Security and Emergency Management 2015-2017, October 1, 2014

Address sustainability in all efforts. Sustainability should be at the core of all levels of homeland security and emergency management effort in Iowa. Capabilities need to be built for the long term, and without a sustainability plan in place, projects can quickly deplete uncertain levels of funding. Utilize an all-hazards methodology. Developing capabilities that are effective during a variety of disaster and emergency scenarios represents sound planning and resource management. Enhance capabilities through joint planning, training and exercise. Effective capabilities developed through coordinated planning efforts and an ongoing joint training and exercising program to ensure substantiate of prepared response. Utilize a collaborative approach to build capability. We will utilize whatever partnerships are necessary to build capability in the most effective manner possible. Regional partnerships have been, and will continue to be, in the forefront of the State of Iowa’s efforts to build and enhance capability. Enhance statewide capabilities. Whenever possible, we will identify and augment existing resources to provide statewide capability during a disaster or terrorist attack. Awareness, outreach and education. Open communication is critical to the success of any initiative. All projects implemented will have awareness, education and outreach components to ensure that all stakeholders are informed as to their responsibilities, capabilities and access. Information sharing and a common operating picture. The timely exchange of critical/actionable information is imperative to the success of every operation. The identification of a common operating picture allows decision makers to make informed decisions based on a unified understanding of the events around them.
