Análise do desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais na construção civil através do modelo da aprendizagem baseada em problemas adaptado ao contexto organizacional

Com a crescente e constante mudança da competitividade no ramo da construção civil, a velocidade com que novas tecnologias vêm sendo disponibilizadas, a quantidade e o acesso rápido a informação caracterizam um ambiente turbulento que requer uma grande capacidade de adaptação e aprendizagem nas organizações. Estas mudanças no cenário da engenharia civil e, consequentemente da gestão da produção das obras, exigem um engenheiro com perfil diferente do tocador de obras. Diante deste cenário, algumas alterações ocorreram, provocando mudanças neste novo perfil profissional dos engenheiros civis. Essa nova conjuntura exige um perfil mais apurado de tais profissionais, onde, o domínio sobre inovação, foco no cliente, planejamento, conhecimento de sistemas de gestão da qualidade, sustentabilidade e uma visão humanista se tornam vertentes indispensáveis. A pesquisa tem como foco de estudo a análise do desenvolvimento de competências do engenheiro civil gestor de obra. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi: analisar, compreender e avaliar os resultados do processo de desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais de engenheiros civis gestores de obra, através da implantação em uma empresa construtora do modelo da Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas adaptado ao contexto organizacional. A estratégia de pesquisa adotada foi à pesquisa-ação, pois contou com o trabalho em equipe e o comprometimento de mudança de todos os envolvidos. Os resultados alcançados analisaram o desenvolvimento das competências relacionadas ao contexto organizacional, à aprendizagem individual, coletiva e organizacional, além de, apontar problemas e possíveis soluções de gestão na empresa.

Representações de alunos com deficiência sobre os currículos de seus cursos de graduação na Universidade Federal do Pará

Na presente dissertação, trazemos como objeto de estudo as representações de alunos com deficiência sobre os currículos dos seus respectivos cursos de graduação na Universidade Federal do Pará. Para tanto, adotamos como referencial teórico-metodológico a perspectiva de representações de Lefebvre, que compreende que muitas representações dificilmente são identificadas e, por isso, impedem a percepção e transformação do real. A pesquisa buscou elucidar os conteúdos dessas representações, que, quando representados, perdem sua condição de invisíveis ou não perceptíveis e permitem a apropriação da realidade social, possibilitando rupturas com realidades excludentes. Desse modo, objetivamos identificar as representações de alunos com deficiência sobre os currículos dos seus cursos de graduação da Universidade Federal do Pará; conhecer como se deu o processo de construção histórica dessas representações; e identificar possíveis consequências e influências dessas representações na permanência e conclusão dos cursos de graduação pelos alunos com deficiência. A abordagem metodológica utilizada foi qualitativa, pautada no método materialista-histórico e dialético, com base na concepção de representações em Lefebvre. Para coleta de dados utilizamos a técnica da entrevista aberta a cinco alunos com deficiência regularmente matriculados na Universidade Federal do Pará. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio da técnica de Análise do Conteúdo. Considerando o currículo um campo de disputas, pudemos conhecer vivências e realidades dos sujeitos de pesquisa. Quanto às representações sobre o currículo, identificamos como relevantes conteúdos a concepção de deficiência, o preconceito experienciado por meio das relações interpessoais e os benefícios do engajamento e da militância política como apontamentos fundamentais. Observamos também, diante da resiliência expressa pelos sujeitos por meio de suas representações sobre o currículo, a possibilidade de o currículo funcionar como um instrumento de resistência e de fomento à contra hegemonia, ou seja, instrumento de ruptura de práticas educacionais excludentes. Assim, as representações sobre o currículo por alunos com deficiência indicam que, embora essa arena de conflitos e disputas por poder ainda reproduza desigualdades históricas, o currículo se mostra um potencial instrumento para a construção e a efetivação de práticas inclusivas na Universidade.

Competência de juízo moral dos estudantes de medicina: um estudo piloto

The authors conducted a cross-sectional short-term study using Lind's Moral Judgment Test (MJT) to compare the moral judgment competence (C-score) among students in the first and eighth semesters from a medical school in the Northeast region of Brazil. This study also evaluated the influence of such factors as age and gender on moral competence. A difference equal to or greater than 5.0 points (absolute effect-size) on the C-score was considered significant. A regression of moral judgment competence among the students in their eighth semester in relation to the students in the first semester (C-score: 20.5 and 26.2 points, respectively) was observed. In the analysis of the students' performances in terms of MJT dilemmas, the phenomenon of moral segmentation was observed in both semesters, and the students performed better on the worker's dilemma than on the doctor's dilemma. Among students in the same semester of study, older students had lower C-scores. When comparing performance by gender, there was no significant difference between men's and women's C-scores. The finding of regression or stagnation in moral competence among the medical students demands deep reflection by those who work with the political-pedagogical projects of medical schools and by the entire faculty, in order to seek strategies to reverse this condition.

A questão do voto para o adulto analfabeto ou pouco letrado

The Youth and Adult Education is a reality that still stands on the school benches of Brazil. Elderly people historically get more integration in the world when appropriate to the written code. One of the issues that touch this insertion is the right to vote and, more than that, the awareness of the vote of young and adult illiterate or poorly literate. Thus, this project aims to raise throug the point of view of this student how he see himself as voter and what is their role in the democratic consolidation of this act, even if he is in the condition of illiterate or poorly literate. Therefore, a qualitative approach to research will be conducted, in which individual audio recorded interviews will be held, later transcribed and the data will be analyzed in the light of the studied literature, based on the writings of Paulo Freire. Will participate as subjects Teachers of EJA and of study the students enrolled in the Education of Young Adults rooms on the city of Bauru. The results shown in interviews with the teachers confirmed the investigation of expectations in the study of Paulo Freire which has literacy training as part of the citizenship, the results allowed the construction of the profile of a group of students. We also concluded that it was possible to deconstruct the myth of non-political consciousness of the illiterate and the presence of dialogue in pedagogical practice enabling awareness of Educating

Student Writing Performance: Identifying the Effects when Combining Planning and Revising Instructional Strategies

The purpose of the current study is to identify the impact of teaching students to revise their stories on writing production (Total Words Written; TWW), writing accuracy (Percent Correct Writing Sequences; %CWS), number of critical story elements included in stories, and quality of writing. Three third-grade and one fourth-grade student who were experiencing difficulties in the area of writing were involved in the study. The students were first taught to plan their stories using the evidence-based program, Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD), which has frequently been implemented to teach students to plan their stories. Students were then taught to revise their stories using SRSD procedures modified for instruction in revision strategies. Student progress was evaluated through a multiple-probe design across tasks and a multiple-probe design across participants, which allowed for experimental control over time and across story probes. In addition to the previously mentioned variables, student’s acceptability of the intervention and their attitudes toward writing were also assessed. Results indicated that instruction in revising increased student writing accuracy beyond the effects of instruction in planning. Additionally, although instruction in planning was shown to increase writing production, number of critical story elements, and quality of writing, instruction in revising produced additional improvement in these variables as well. Finally, results indicated that students liked the intervention and their attitudes toward writing generally increased. Implications for practice and future research directions will be discussed.

Funktionales Konstruieren – Rapid Technologien für Architektur und Baukonstruktion

Nicht nur in der Medizintechnik, in der Luftfahrt und in der Automobilindustrie werden die generativen Verfahren zunehmend mehr als wichtige Produktionsverfahren angesehen. Auch die (Bau-) Industrie nimmt mehr und mehr die Möglichkeiten und Chancen wahr, welche diese Verfahren für andersartige Konstruktionen und Details eröffnen. Die Ergründung von Veränderungen und Auswirkungen dieser neuen Technologien auf den Entwurf und auf die Umsetzung von Architektur und Baukonstruktion ist Schwerpunkt der Forschungstätigkeiten von Dipl.-Ing. Holger Strauß an den Hochschulstandorten TU Delft, Niederlande und an der Hochschule Ostwestfalen-Lippe in Detmold. Das erste, umfangreiche Forschungsprojekt zu diesem Thema - „Influence of Additive Processes on the development of facade constructions“ - wurde 2008 in Kooperation mit der international agierenden Firma Kawneer-Alcoa im Forschungsschwerpunkt „ConstructionLab“ an der Detmolder Schule für Architektur und Innenarchitektur etabliert. Der Fokus der Bestrebungen liegt zunächst auf der Ergründung von Möglichkeiten für die generative Herstellung von Bauteilen als Ergänzung der Standardprodukte in Systemfassaden. Die Verwendung der Additiven Verfahren und Hightech CAD-CAM Anwendungen bedingt eine neue Art des Konstruierens. Nämlich nicht mehr das fertigungsgerechte, sondern das funktionsgerechte – das „Funktionale Konstruieren“. Neben der Bereicherung der Forschung und Lehre an den Hochschulen durch eine praxisnahe und zielorientierte Aufgabenstellung, fließen alle Ergebnisse in die Promotion von Holger Strauß an der Technischen Universität in Delft am Lehrstuhl Design of Construction bei Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ulrich Knaack ein.

An evaluation of the impact of Inner City Development's Cooperative Home School: An educational alternative program to increase the quality and level of education in San Antonio's West Side community

The research study was intended to evaluate the effectiveness of Inner City Development's (I.C.D.) Cooperative Home School, an educational alternative program to the Title I public schools of San Antonio's West Side community. The study investigated students', parents' and tutors' perception of parental involvement and educational resources. The study also investigated each student's academic achievement. ^ The study found that students progressed toward expected math proficiency at a faster rate than they did in reading proficiency. However, because the target population size was small and a comparison group was not used, the results of this study are only suggestive. This research also indicated that study subjects believed students' quality and level of education increased substantially since program exposure. Study subjects mainly attributed the students' strides in academic performance to the increased amount of individualized attention students received in the small twelve-student class size. Study subjects were more satisfied with the home school's educational resources than those of the Title I public schools. Study subjects also perceived that parental involvement both at home and at school increased since enrollment in the home school program because: (1) there were more opportunities for involvement in the home school; and (2) parents felt closer to the tutors than the teachers in public school. ^ This evaluation also suggested improvements to program operations. With the help of additional volunteers, I.C.D. program operators could improve collection and organization of academic records. Furthermore, as suggested by program participants, science could be added to the curriculum. Lastly, a formal tutor orientation could be implemented to familiarize and train tutors on classroom management procedures. ^
