O texto que propomos parte de uma pesquisa longitudinal, realizada em Portugal entre 2008 e 2010, com professores do 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico. Procura evidenciar os conflitos e incertezas que a avaliação do desempenho docente tem produzido e a busca de sentido(s) para esta avaliação e para o ‘ser professor/a’. A implementação de sistemas de avaliação do desempenho dos professores insere-se na procura de soluções para esta inquietação. Foi o que aconteceu em Portugal, em Janeiro de 2007, com a publicação em Diário da República do novo Estatuto da Carreira Docente e o Decreto que regulamentava a Avaliação do Desempenho Docente. As tensões emergiram entre docentes e Ministério da Educação, agudizaram-se com a tomada de consciência da problemática da avaliação do desempenho dos docentes com impacto na carreira profissional e provocaram incertezas e desmotivação face ao sentido do trabalho docente com impacto na identidade profissional dos professores.

As digital imaging processing techniques become increasingly used in a broad range of consumer applications, the critical need to evaluate algorithm performance has become recognised by developers as an area of vital importance. With digital image processing algorithms now playing a greater role in security and protection applications, it is of crucial importance that we are able to empirically study their performance. Apart from the field of biometrics little emphasis has been put on algorithm performance evaluation until now and where evaluation has taken place, it has been carried out in a somewhat cumbersome and unsystematic fashion, without any standardised approach. This paper presents a comprehensive testing methodology and framework aimed towards automating the evaluation of image processing algorithms. Ultimately, the test framework aims to shorten the algorithm development life cycle by helping to identify algorithm performance problems quickly and more efficiently.

We propose a new method, based on inertial sensors, to automatically measure at high frequency the durations of the main phases of ski jumping (i.e. take-off release, take-off, and early flight). The kinematics of the ski jumping movement were recorded by four inertial sensors, attached to the thigh and shank of junior athletes, for 40 jumps performed during indoor conditions and 36 jumps in field conditions. An algorithm was designed to detect temporal events from the recorded signals and to estimate the duration of each phase. These durations were evaluated against a reference camera-based motion capture system and by trainers conducting video observations. The precision for the take-off release and take-off durations (indoor < 39 ms, outdoor = 27 ms) can be considered technically valid for performance assessment. The errors for early flight duration (indoor = 22 ms, outdoor = 119 ms) were comparable to the trainers' variability and should be interpreted with caution. No significant changes in the error were noted between indoor and outdoor conditions, and individual jumping technique did not influence the error of take-off release and take-off. Therefore, the proposed system can provide valuable information for performance evaluation of ski jumpers during training sessions.

In this paper, I provide a formal justi…cation for a well-established coattail effect, when a popular candidate at one branch of government attracts votes to candidates from the same political party for other branches of government. A political agency frame- work with moral hazard is applied to analyze coattails in simultaneous presidential and congressional elections. I show that coattail voting is a natural outcome of the optimal reelection scheme adopted by a representative voter to motivate politicians' efforts in a retrospective voting environment. I assume that an office-motivated politician (executive or congressman) prefers her counterpart to be affiliated with the same political party. This correlation of incentives leads the voter to adopt a joint performance evaluation rule, which is conditioned on the politicians belonging to the same party or different parties. The two-sided coattail effects then arise. On the one hand, the executive's suc- cess/failure props up/drags down her partisan ally in congressional election, which implies presidential coattails. On the other hand, the executive's reelection itself is affected by the congressman's performance, which results in reverse coattails. JEL classi…fication: D72, D86. Keywords: Coattail voting; Presidential coattails; Reverse coattails; Simultaneous elections; Political Agency; Retrospective voting.

Abstract This paper presents a model of executive compensation in which the executive is risk-averse and has specific knowledge -knowledge about the optimal actions to take that is costly to transfer to the principal. The model generates predictions that are consistent with the available evidence and provides a rationale for a number of unresolved puzzles in executive compensation. Notably, we find that relative performance evaluation is optimal only if the quality of specific knowledge is low. We also show (1) why some common risk components are not filtered out of executives' pay, (2) why performance is more likely to be evaluated relative to aggregate market movements than relative to industry movements, and (3) why executives with higher perceived abilities are given stronger incentives. Finally, we demonstrate that the relation between risk and incentives may be positive or negative, depending on the quality of the executive's specific knowledge.

La recerca que aquí es presenta es centra en tres objectius. Primerament, obtenir informació d’altres experiències de mentoria d’alumnat immigrat desenvolupades en altres països (Alemanya, Àustria, Eslovènia, Estats Units, Israel, Noruega, Suècia, Suïssa, etc.) amb l’objectiu d’elaborar un marc teòric sòlid que ajudi a argumentar científicament el projecte "Rossinyol". Aquest objectiu s’ha treballat mitjançant la recerca bibliogràfica i documental a nivell nacional, estatal i internacional. Posteriorment, realitzar una primera anàlisi dels ímputs que aporta el projecte Rossinyol al territori on es porta a terme. Mitjançant l’elaboració i passi d’una entrevista a mentors, mestres (dels mentorats) i enllaços territorials (persones del territori que es posen en contacte amb les escoles per seleccionar els mentorats –entre d’altres tasques-) s’ha analitzat: els punts forts i febles del projecte, els possibles efectes de la mentoria en el mentorat i el tipus de relacions que s’han establert entre els agents que participen en el projecte. Finalment, establir uns criteris d’avaluació que permetin donar pautes per desenvolupar aquest projecte –o projectes similars de mentoria- en altres llocs del nostre país. En aquest apartat del treball s’ha elaborat una proposta d’indicadors amb el conseqüent instrument per, en una fase posterior, recollir informació que permetin fer un seguiment acurat, objectiu i extens del projecte.

This paper aims at illustrating some applications of Finite Random Set (FRS) theory to the design and analysis of wireless communication receivers, and at pointing out similarities and differences between this scenario and that pertaining to multi-target tracking, where the use of FRS has been traditionally advocated. Two case studies are considered, l.e., multiuser detection in a dynamic environment, and multicarrier (OFDM) transmission on a frequency-selective channel. Detector designand performance evaluation are discussed, along with the advantages of importing FRS-based estimation techniques to the context of wireless communications.

Cabo Verde foi alcandorado a PDM recentemente o que traz novos e grandes desafios para o seu processo de desenvolvimento. O país que tem as suas vulnerabilidades decorrentes do seu frágil tecido produtivo e da sua reduzida dimensão, para além da escassez de recursos naturais, enfrenta ainda o desafio da insularidade. Assim terá que ancorar-se em primeiro lugar nos seus recursos humanos, para enfrentar esses desafios. A questão da gestão de desempenho e recompensa começa a emergir-se no sector empresarial quer privado quer estatal, como um processo fundamental para se alcançar a excelência operacional, fundamental para enfrentar a competição nos dias de hoje. O presente estudo focou o sistema de avaliação de desempenho na Shell Cabo Verde uma filial do Grupo Shell, que é uma multinacional com uma história rica e com forte experiência no mercado Global. Procurou-se, através de um estudo de caso, fazer o levantamento e o enquadramento teórico do sistema e analisar até que ponto o mesmo tem potenciado a melhoria do desempenho organizacional através do alinhamento dos objectivos individuais e da organização. Cape Verde has recently been upgraded to a Medium Development Country condition which brings along new great challenges to its development process. The country has already its vulnerabilities due to its week productive tissue and its small dimension and beyond the lack of natural resources it has to deal with the challenge of insularity. Thus it has to anchor itself firstly in its human resources to face the challenges. The performance and reward management starts to emerge in both private’s and State’s entrepreneur sector, as a fundamental process to achieve the operational excellence in order to face the competitiveness now-a-days. This study focused the performance evaluation used in Shell Cape Verde, a company that belongs to the multinational Shell with a rich global market experience. We tried, through a case study, to understand the theoric contents of the system and analyze at what point it has enhanced the improvement of the organizational performance through the alignment of individual objectives and organizational objectives.

Este estudo, realizado sobre a temática “A Avaliação de Desempenho como Factor de Motivação”, através da revisão bibliográfica e de um estudo de caso na Sociedade Cabo-verdiana de Tabacos, SA, teve como objectivo mostrar os impactos da avaliação de desempenho na motivação dos colaboradores. O trabalho encontra-se estruturado em quatro capítulos, sendo que no primeiro e segundo fez-se uma revisão bibliográfica, para uma melhor fundamentação teórica do trabalho. O terceiro capítulo, refere-se ao estudo de caso feito na referida empresa, onde foi aplicado um questionário para apurar, acerca da percepção que os colaboradores têm do sistema de avaliação de desempenho que são submetidos e da adequabilidade do mesmo à estrutura da organização, e ainda a aplicação da teoria de Victor Vroom para medir a motivação dos colaboradores. E por último, no quarto capítulo, referimos às conclusões e subsequentes recomendações. Da análise dos dados recolhidos na empresa, verificamos que o nível motivacional com que a maioria dos colaboradores da SCT, SA desenvolvem as suas tarefas está abaixo da média, o que conduziu-nos a conclusão de que eles estão desmotivados, pelo que a empresa deverá criar medidas que possam estimular os colaboradores de forma a reverter essa situação. This study about the topic "Performance Evaluation as Motivation Factor", through literature review and a case study in Sociedade Cabo-verdiana de Tabacos, SA, aimed to show the impact of performance evaluation on employee motivation. The work is structured in four chapters and in the first and second we did a literature review for better theoretical foundation of the work. The third chapter refers to the case study in the company mentioned above, which was administered a questionary to know what the employees think about the performance evaluation system in the company, and so the application of Victor Vroom´s theory to measure the employees motivation. And finally in the fourth chapter we refer some conclusions and recommendations for the company. After the analysis of the data given in the company, we realized that the motivation level witch the majority of the employees in SCT, SA work is under the average, what made us come to the conclusion that they are not motivated. So we suggest the company to develop strategies to stimulate the employees in order to reverse this situation
