Educação a distância - TV escola e PROINFO: impactos em escolas públicas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro

A educação a distância ganha força como mais uma forma de aprendizagem e como um novo recurso de apoio ao trabalho pedagógico. Por essa razão, existe um grande esforço dos governos, no sentido de priorizar as novas formas de aprendizagem a distância. Acompanhar a evolução das políticas públicas de educação a distância, principalmente os impactos percebidos na qualidade do ensino, é o principal objetivo deste estudo. A pesquisa de campo aconteceu em escolas públicas de Niterói, onde foi observada a evolução dos programas da Secretaria de Educação a Distância SEED, bem como os outros aspectos da pesquisa em si. Considerando a atualidade do tema, foi imprescindível, além da revisão na literatura específica e das referencias bibliográficas usuais, fundamentar a argumentação da autora com periódicos e outros conhecimentos pesquisados na internet, através da informação mediada. A dissertação destaca o resultado de toda a investigação e conclui que as novas tecnologias e as formas interativas de aprendizagem ainda não são aceitos pela comunidade escolar, como importantes recursos auxiliares. Os programas TV Escola e Proinfo deveriam revolucionar o modo de capacitação de professores e a aprendizagem dos alunos, mas não estão provocando os resultados desejados, nas escolas observadas. Os objetivos dos programas ainda não foram alcançados e o esforço dos atores governamentais e não governamentais não teve o sucesso desejado.

Os efeitos de sistema de registro de preço nas compras públicas: estudo de caso da Secretaria Municipal de Obras, Serviços Básicos e Habitação da cidade de Manaus

Public administration has been labeled as inefficient for decades, with society seen it as a great waste of public money with a low generation of results. Its services are notably classified as sluggish, bureaucratic, with a low productivity level and a high incidence of mistakes. In periods of crisis, public administration must be the first to give good examples of balance and parsimony in its expenditures, or it could lead to the failure of the government, in general, causing damages to the population. To reach this goal, some corrective measures must be done, in different directions, by selecting the expenditures and fostering the maximum economy for the exchequer. This is only possible through the application of correct planning techniques, a still far way reality from the culture of our public organisms. One way to this change is the adoption of the Price Registration System, that in the Federal scope was already adopted by the Decree nº 3.931/01, and in the scope of the municipality of Manaus was ordered by the Decree nº 8.270/06. The present study verifies the influence of the use of the Price Registration System in purchases and contracts undertaken by the Local Secretariat of Construction, Basic Services and Housing, in the city of Manaus concerning the economy obtained when compared to other methods of tenders.

Avaliação de políticas públicas: estudo do comportamento de indicadores relacionados com a saúde em municípios do estado de Pernambuco após a emenda Constitucional Nº 29

The Brazilian Public Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS), defined by the Constitution of 1988, is almost 20 years old and is a landmark for health public policies. In these 20 years, the law was altered several times with the objective of prioritizing the investment of public money in such a needy area as health. Among these changes, it is important to single out the Constitutional Amendment number 29, issued on 13th September 2000, which determined the minimum investment in health. According to this amendment, as from the year 2000, the municipalities should invest in health services a minimum of 7% of the revenue from taxes and transferences from the Federal and State governments. This value was to rise gradually to 15% by 2004. Since every public policy should be systematically evaluated and considering the assumption that, according to the incrementalist theory, more money invested in health would tend to solve the crisis in the health system, this dissertation consists of a study of a set of health indicators in some municipalities of the State of Pernambuco after the Amendment 29. The evaluation period spanned 4 years, from 2002 to 2005 and the area chosen for the study was located in southern agreste region of the state. Ten health indicators were selected, all of which included in the Administrative Rule no 493, of the Health Ministry. It was found that in the chosen period the average investment in health was greater than 15% of the municipalities¿ revenue since 2002. However, the value of the investment per capita, considering the municipality's share of it, which was half of the total investment, decreased from 2002 to 2004 and increased in 2005. It was also found that the municipalities with the lowest per capita income were the ones with the highest investment per capita in health. As regards children mortality in the region, it was on average 33 for every 1000 children born, which is classified as ¿medium¿ according to the above mentioned Administrative Rule no 493. No statistically significative correlation was found between the amount of money invested in health and children mortality.
