Ressignificação de Paradigmas e Estratégias de Recursos Humanos Voltadas para as Instituições Penitenciárias

O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar as condições de vida da população carcerária em dois presídios localizados no Recife (PE), e verificar o quanto tais condições implicam na reincidência criminal. O estudo foi baseado em uma revisão de literatura sobre o tema, realizada a partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica em livros, revistas, e artigos publicados na Internet, tudo devidamente citado. E, também, contou com uma pesquisa de campo, realizada nas unidades penitenciárias – Presídio Aníbal Bruno e Penitenciária Feminina do Recife. Concluiu-se que o preso que cumpre pena nos presídios do Estado de Pernambuco, apesar do projeto de ressocialização da SERES, ainda vive em condições desumanas: sem acomodações, sem trabalho, sem assistência psicológica, sem projetos sócioeducacionais, sem atividades recreativas, entre outras coisas. A recuperação de um preso para o convívio social traz benefícios para a sociedade, para o Estado e para o indivíduo que cumpriu pena e, ao deixar a prisão, pode voltar a viver dignamente, consciente de que cometeu um erro e de que não voltará a errar. / The aim of this study is evaluate the living conditions of prison population in two prisons located in Recife (PE), and check how these conditions imply the criminal recidivism. The study was based on a review of literature on subject, carried out a search on books, journals, and articles published on Internet, all properly cited. And, too, had a field research conducted in the prison units - Anibal Bruno prison in Recife and Women's Penitentiary. It was concluded that the prisoner who is serving a sentence in the prisons of State of Pernambuco, despite the project's resocialization SERES, still live in inhuman conditions: no accommodations, no work, no psychological, social and educational projects without, no recreational activities, among other things. The recovery of a prisoner for social contact has benefits for society, for the State and the individual who served and, on leaving the prison, can return to live with dignity, knowing you made a mistake and that he will not err.

Arm aber gemütlich. Afrikabilder deutscher Jugendlicher

Internationale Jugendbegegnungen in Ländern der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit ermöglichen Teilnehmenden ein erfahrungsbasiertes statt theoretisch vermitteltes Bild des jeweiligen Landes/Kontinents. Basierend auf Daten einer qualitativen Forschungsarbeit zu internationalen Jugendbegegnungen im Nord-Süd-Kontext wird das Afrikabild einer deutschen Jugendgruppe nach einem dreiwöchigen Aufenthalt in Ruanda beschrieben: Afrikaner sind (finanziell) von den Industriestaaten abhängig. Trotz ihrer Armut sind sie zufrieden und es herrscht Gemütlichkeit. Sie singen und tanzen und der Glaube spielt eine wichtige Rolle. Abschließend wird diskutiert, wie Begegnungen konzipiert werden sollten, damit solche defizitorientierten und Armut romantisierenden Bilder vermieden werden können. (DIPF/Orig.)

Finnish Preclinical and Clinical Medical Students as Strategic L2 English Learners: Language Learning Strategies and Communicating with Patients

This thesis focused on medical students’ language learning strategies for patient encounters. The research questions concerned the types of learning strategies that medical students use and the differences between the preclinical students and the clinical students, two groups who have had varying amounts of experience with patients. Additionally, strategy use was examined through activity systems to gain information on the context of language learning strategy use in order to learn language for patient encounters. In total, 130 first-year medical students (preclinical) and 39 fifth-year medical students (clinical) participated in the study by filling in a questionnaire on language learning strategies. In addition, two students were interviewed in order to create activity systems for the medical students at different stages of their studies. The study utilised both quantitative and qualitative research methods; the analysis of the results relies on Oxford’s Strategic Self-Regulation Model in the quantitative part and on activity theory in the qualitative part. The theoretical sections of the study introduced earlier research and theories regarding English for specific purposes, language learning strategies and activity theory. The results indicated that the medical students use affective, sociocultural-interactive and metasociocultural-interactive strategies often and avoid using negative strategies, which hinder language learning or cease communication altogether. Slight differences between the preclinical and clinical students were found, as clinical students appear to use affective and metasociocultural-interactive strategies more frequently compared to the preclinical students. The activity systems of the two students interviewed were rather similar. The students were at different stages of their studies, but their opinions were very similar. Both reported the object of learning to be mutual understanding between the patient and the doctor, which in part explains the preference for strategies that support communication and interaction. The results indicate that the nature of patient encounters affects the strategy use of the medical students at least to some extent.

Contributos da tecnologia multimédia e do multissensorial nas artesn performativas Era Uma Vez

O presente projeto de intervenção artística com o nome “Era Uma Vez” tem como objetivo transformar Contos Tradicionais numa Performance interativa, recorrendo à tecnologia multimédia, no sentido de proporcionar ao público visitante uma viagem pelo mundo da fantasia, num ambiente multissensorial. Neste sentido, pretendeu-se implementar um espaço de lazer, de relaxamento e um convite ao mundo da fantasia, fazendo sonhar e maravilhando todos os públicos envolvidos. O local de realização da Performance foi um espaço não convencional, um prédio antigo, atualmente desabituado, na cidade de Viseu. Quanto à Performance pretendeu-se que os intérpretes e todo o espaço envolvente provocasse no público múltiplas sensações. Estas provocações poderiam libertar memórias, não fossem as histórias ou os contos muitas vezes responsáveis por incutir determinados sentimentos, valores morais e princípios ideológicos. O uso das tecnologias multimédia nas artes tem tido um crescimento exponencial. Atualmente são muitas as formas de arte que adotam a multimédia no seu processo criativo, este fator provém da necessidade de criar novas ideias, procurar ser original, tornar o produto mais atrativo. A afirmação de espaços multissensoriais ou MSE (Multi Sensory Environment - ambiente multissensorial) tem sido notável. A exploração desta metodologia de trabalho destina-se para além do desenvolvimento e aprendizagem, o querer proporcionar, bem-estar, prazer, exploração, relaxamento e encontrar equilíbrio. A metodologia aplicada para a criação deste projeto é a Metodologia Projetual de Bruno Munari. Tratando-se de um projeto artístico tem uma organização simples e minimalista que resulta de um esquema cujo a ordem é definida pelo autor do projeto mediante as suas necessidades. A Estreia teve como resultado um balanço muito positivo por parte dos participantes, a adesão e a participação do público interagindo com todo o ambiente criado superou as expectativas.

Aprendizagem na ação revisitada e sua relação com a noção de competência

Este artigo tem como propósito abordar, discutir e propor, a partir de cuidadosa revisão da literatura e resultados de estudo exploratório, uma concepção que procura estabelecer conexões entre as diferentes definições sobre a aprendizagem experiencial e seu papel no desenvolvimento de competências no contexto organizacional. O estudo desenvolvido investigou os aspectos relacionados à aprendizagem e ao desenvolvimento de competências na percepção de universitários que estavam trabalhando e cursando a etapa final do curso de administração. Os resultados revelam: a importância do contexto em que os indivíduos estão inseridos na construção de significados para o processo de aprendizagem; como as situações que surgem no cotidiano podem tornarse veículo neste processo; e permitem dizer que, para instalar uma cultura de aprendizagem que possibilite o desenvolvimento de competências, é necessária compreensão clara das novas diretrizes de uma tarefa educativa voltada para aprendizagem. Na perspectiva de trazer alguma contribuição o estudo conclui propondo um quadro de referências relativamente integrado para a definição e o papel da aprendizagem na ação no desenvolvimento de competências.

Navigating equality:religious young women's perceptions of gender and sexuality equality

Equality has become an important concept within secular-liberal societies (Perrons 2005), with white, secular Western women interpellated as quintessentially embodying this equality (Gill and Scharff 2011; McRobbie 2011; Nayak and Kehily 2008). For religious organizations, the interacting spaces of gender and sexuality constitute two of the most contested terrains in rights-giving, and many religions are seen as less progressive regarding equality vis-à-vis other social institutions (Plummer 2003; Tosh and Keenan 2003; Weeks2007). Young religious women have to articulate how they fit into the contours of secular-liberal equality norms as religious subjects. This chapter will focus on how young religious women living in the UK made sense of equality in the context of their religion, focusing on attitudes to gender equality and sexuality equality.

Ejercicio físico, salud y supuestos en el cálculo de la frecuencia cardíaca máxima estimada

Recibido 11 de noviembre de 2010 • Aceptado 09 de marzo de 2011 • Corregido 03 de junio de 2011 En tiempos en los que se habla ya de nanociencia, de nanotecnología, de biología sistémica, de reingeniería genética, de ecoalfabetización, de ecoeconomía, de revolución biotecnológica, etc., pareciera que aún permanecen viejas escuelas con supuestos científicos y referentes teóricos que en su momento dieron respuestas a necesidades científicas, pero que ya hoy son insuficientes. Se menciona esto porque resulta un atraso para la ciencias de la educación y para las ciencias del deporte el hecho de que aún se sigan enseñando en congresos nacionales e internacionales, seminarios, jornadas de investigación, en nuestras universidades y en cualquier tipo de reuniones científicas, algunos supuestos que han perdido vigencia y que, por lo tanto, han caducado en cuanto a su legitimidad y validez. Reconocemos los avances que para la ciencia del ejercicio físico y la fisiología del ejercicio representaron, en su momento, algunas fórmulas predictivas para el cálculo de la frecuencia cardíaca máxima estimada (FCME), hay aspectos dignos de considerar que atienden a la necesidad. No que las despreciemos, lo que se pretende a través del presente trabajo es mostrar y desmitificar el hecho de la fórmula tradicional como casi el único patrón de medición y cálculo de la FCME, y más allá ofrecer, desde la perspectiva de otros investigadores, posibilidades para una mejora en cuanto a la dosificación del ejercicio físico para ciertos tipos de poblaciones con especificidades singulares.

Customer emotions in service failure and recovery encounters

Emotions play a significant role in the workplace, and considerable attention has been given to the study of employee emotions. Customers also play a central function in organizations, but much less is known about customer emotions. This chapter reviews the growing literature on customer emotions in employee–customer interfaces with a focus on service failure and recovery encounters, where emotions are heightened. It highlights emerging themes and key findings, addresses the measurement, modeling, and management of customer emotions, and identifies future research streams. Attention is given to emotional contagion, relationships between affective and cognitive processes, customer anger, customer rage, and individual differences.

The dynamics of interfaces: Seven authors in search of encounters across levels of description of an event involving a mother, father, and baby

The interfaces between the intrapsychic, interactional, and intergenerational domains are a new frontier. As a pilot, we exposed ourselves to a complex but controllable situation as viewed by people whose main interest is in one of the three interfaces; we also fully integrated the subjects in the team, to learn about their subjective perspectives and to provide them with an enriching experience. We started with a brief "triadification" sequence (i.e., moving from a "two plus one" to a "three together" family organization). Considering this sequence as representing at a micro level many larger family transitions, we proceeded with a microanalytic interview, a psychodynamic investigation, and a family interview. As expected, larger patterns of correspondences are emerging. Central questions under debate are: What are the most appropriate units at each level of description and what are their articulations between these levels? What is the status of "triadification"? Les interfaces entre les domaines intrapsychiques, interactionnels et intergénérationnels représentent une nouvelle frontiére. A titre exploratoire, nous nous sommes exposés à une situation complexe mais contrǒlable ainsi que le voient ceux dont I'intérět principal se porte sur l'une de ces trois interfaces. Nous avons aussi entièrement intégré les sujets dans l'équipe, de facon à comprendre leur perspective subjective et à leur offrir une expérience enrichissante. Nous avons commencé avec une brève séquence de "triadification," c'est-à-dire passer d'une organisation familiale "deux plus un" à Ltne organisation familiale "trois (add sentenc)ensemble." Considérant cette séquence comme representative à un niveau microscopique de transitions familiales bien plus larges, nous avons procedé à l'entretien microanalytique, à une enquěte psychodynamique et à un entretien familial. Comme prévu, de grands patterns de correspondances émergent. Les questions essentielles sur lesquelles portent le débat sont: quelles les unités les plus appropiées à chaque niveau de description et quelles sont les articulations entre ces niveaux? Quel est le statut de la "triadification"?

Family doctors' consultations with people suffering from chronic pain without objective findings: Which protective practices might they develop in these challenging medical encounters?

Introduction: Consultations with patients suffering from chronic pain without objective findings represent a challenge fo r family doctors (FDs). A mutual lack of understanding may arise, which threatens the doctor-patient relationship and may lead to dissatisfaction of both patient and doctor and to a breakdown of the therapeutic alliance. Objectives: This study aims to investigate FDs' potential protective practices to preserve the doctor-patient relationship during this type of consultation. Method: In the first step of this qualitative research, I carried out a range of 10 se- mi-structured interviews with FDs to explore their reported practices and repre- sentations during consultations with people suffering from chronic pain without objective findings. The interviews' transcripts were integrally analysed with computer-assisted thematic content analysis (QSR NVivo ® ) to highlight the main themes related to the topic in the participants' talk. Results: At this point of the research, two types of FDs' protective practices can be identified: first the use of complementary sources of knowledge in addition to the medical model to provide explanations to patients, second the collaboration with multidisciplinary teams or support gr oups that allow them to share profes- sional expertise and emotional experiences. Conclusion: The findings could be useful to develop ways to improve the follow- up of patients suffering from chronic pain without objective findings and conse- quently the FDs' work satisfaction.
