A gestão dos projetos de Pesquisa, Desenvolvimento e Inovação (PD&I) tem sido objeto de preocupação das organizações em virtude da necessidade de compatibilizar objetivos estratégicos e recursos, assim como assegurar a ênfase no desenvolvimento de projetos prioritários, em virtude das crescentes demandas da sociedade. A literatura sobre gestão de projetos apresenta, de forma recorrente, além da importância da figura do líder no desempenho dos projetos como um dos principais agentes condicionantes para o alcance dos resultados, a necessidade constante de aprimoramento da capacidade de atuação desses atores. O aprimoramento da qualificação de profissionais, campo da gestão de programas de Treinamento, Desenvolvimento e Educação (TD&E), tem na etapa de Avaliação de Necessidades de Treinamento (ANT) o processo essencial para a identificação e a priorização de esforços e investimentos realizados na formação de pessoas. Apesar de sua importância, a ANT ainda é pouco desenvolvida nas organizações e possui carência de pesquisas empíricas. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa objetivou investigar as lacunas de competências de líderes de projeto, com o intuito de conhecer a predição das variáveis características da clientela (sociodemográficas e funcionais) sobre a necessidade de treinamento, no contexto de uma instituição de PD&I. Procurou contribuir, desta forma, com elementos no campo da gestão dos projetos, com o avanço da ANT ao conduzir o processo de investigação para avaliar as necessidades de treinamento dos líderes de projeto, fornecer subsídios para a instituição-alvo, no intuito de propiciar informações para o planejamento e desenvolvimento de programa de treinamento e capacitação mais efetivo, voltado à clientela-alvo da pesquisa. Foram traçados cinco objetivos específicos: construir o instrumento de Competências de Líderes de Projeto (CompLP); verificar evidências de validade do instrumento; identificar as lacunas de competências dos líderes de projeto da Embrapa; conhecer o perfil da clientela; identificar as variáveis que influenciam a aquisição de conhecimentos, habilidades e atitudes - CHAs. A partir da identificação das competências características do líder de projeto, e da validação do instrumento, obteve-se um questionário com 25 itens. Obtidos bons índices psicométricos de validação do instrumento, a pesquisa foi aplicada na Embrapa, e contou com uma amostra de 300 indivíduos. Os índices de prioridade geral (IPG) de treinamento apresentaram valores baixos (menores que 13,8) para as 25 competências que integram o instrumento. De acordo com a auto percepção da amostra, não há necessidade de treinamento de ordem superior, no entanto com elevada divergência de opinião entre os respondentes. A partir das análises do modelo de predição com as oito competências identificadas para desenvolvimento (IPG - 10,3 a 10,86), concluiu-se que a área de atuação dos líderes de projeto na Empresa explica a necessidade de treinamento nas competências em geral, e as variáveis que mais significativamente contribuem para o modelo de predição (R2= 7%) são idade, cargo, tempo de trabalho e tempo de experiência como líder de projeto. O objetivo geral e os objetivos específicos do estudo foram alcançados. Ao final, limitações do estudo são discutidas / The management of research, development and innovation projects has been a concern of organizations due to the need to reconcile strategic objectives and resources, as well as to ensure the emphasis in the development of priority projects, in order to assure the growing demands of society. The literature on project management presents, in a recurrent way, besides the importance of the figure of the leader in the performance of projects, as one of the main conditioning agents for the achievement of results, the constant need to improve the capacity of these actors to act. The improvement of the qualification of professionals, field of program management of training, has in the training needs analysis - TNA stage the essential process for the identification and prioritization of efforts and investments made in the training of workers. Despite its importance, the TNA is still underdeveloped in organizations and lacks empirical research. In this sense, this research aimed to investigate the skills gaps of project leaders with the purpose of knowing the prediction of the characteristic variables of the clientele (sociodemographic and functional characteristics) about the need for training, in the context of a research, development and innovation institution. It sought to contribute,with elements in the field of research project management, with TNA advancing in conducting the research process to evaluate the training needs of project leaders, to provide subsidies to the target institution in order to plann and develop effectives training programes, aimed at the target clientele of the research. Five specific objectives were outlined: build the Project Leadership Competency tool (CompLP); check evidence of validity of the CompLP instrument; identify the skills gaps of Embrapa project leaders; know the profile of the clientele; identify the variables that influence the acquisition of CHAs. Based on the identification of competencies characteristic of the project leader, and the validation phases of the instrument, a questionnaire with 25 items was obtained. After obtaining good psychometric indexes of instrument validation, the research was applied at Embrapa, and had a sample of 300 individuals. The general priority-training index (GPI) presented low values (less than 13.8) for the 25 competences that make up the instrument. Thus, according to the self-perception of the sample, there are no higher-order training needs, however with a high divergence of opinion among the respondents. From the analysis of the prediction model with the eight competencies identified for development (IPG - 10.3 to 10.86), it was concluded that the area of performance of the project leaders in the institution explains the need for training in skills in general, and the variables that most significantly contribute to the prediction model (R2 = 7%) are age, position, working time, and time of experience as a project leader. The overall objective and the specific objectives of the study were achieved. At the end, study issues are discussed

Thesis (MPA.) --University of Limpopo, 2014 / iii ABSTRACT Government Institutions are in terms of the Skills Development Act, (Act 97 of 1998), required to develop employees in order to achieve good and effective performance. The Act makes provision for the development of Workplace Skills Plan by government institutions and mandates these institutions, including Government Departments, to budget at least 1% of their payroll for training and development of employees. It is, however, not apparent whether or not the developed Workplace Skills Plans are in line with the employees training needs and training interventions. As a result, the essence of this study is to determine how to align employees training needs with the Departmental Workplace Skills Plan in the Limpopo Department of Health. In addition, the study investigates whether or not training interventions in the Limpopo Department of Health are informed by the identified skills needs. The type of research methodology used in this study is the quantitative approach, which is in the form of a structured questionnaire. The main finding of the study is that although the Limpopo Department of Health developed the Workplace Skills Plan, training interventions were not aligned to it. In addition, a large percentage of the respondents was not aware of the skills audit exercise that the Department undertook. This study also reveals that the post-training evaluation which was done by the Department did not contribute to important subsequent training interventions. The key recommendation made is that the Limpopo Department of Health should make employees aware of the skills audit exercise the Department often undertakes. Additionally, Personal Development Plans should be continuously used to identify pertinent employee training needs relevant for the Departmental Workplace Skills Plan KEY WORDS • Limpopo Department of Health • Workplace Skills Plan • Personal Development Plan • Skills Audit • Training Interventions • Training Needs Analysis • Employees Training Needs

My Thesis posits a novel method of utilizing emerging web semantics, through HTML5 markup; to improve experience of Health Information seekers through a framework for creating functional, tailored Health Information Resource Collections potentially hosted by their own Health Information Support Networks; and based upon long-standing principles of online Information Retrieval. Most such organizations have websites, with links to useful Resources. This research exemplifies how to design and to present the Resource Collections as pathfinders to existing online Health Information, adding context to each link, to directly address the needs of each community served. The research appeals to a Needs Analysis process rooted in Everyday Life Information Seeking research methodologies, especially Participatory Action Research. As a pilot project, the Needs Analysis focuses necessarily on the Spina Bifida & Hydrocephalus community – with which the author of the Thesis is intimately familiar as a person living with Hydrocephalus, making the choice of a Participatory Action Research framework ideal – and enlisted just one National (Canada) and one Regional (British Columbia) Association for the same rationale. Results of the Needs Analysis were used to identify necessary Resources, but also to select familiar web tools and technologies for design of the Resource Collection and Resource Cards. At completion, there is a functional Collection of Spina Bifida & Hydrocephalus Resources for researchers, caregivers, or patients with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus – not limited to members of any organization, but best suited by design to the two through which analysis was done. / Graduate

Orientador: Solange Aranha / Resumo: Os cursos de Ensino Médio Integrado (EMI) nos Institutos Federais têm uma natureza peculiar, uma vez que buscam formar o aluno tanto no ensino regular propedêutico quanto na educação profissional técnica de nível médio. A aprendizagem de uma língua estrangeira nesta conjuntura pode ser inserida no contexto do ensino de Inglês para Fins Específicos – IFE ou ESP (BROWN, 2016; HYON, 2018; WOODROW, 2018). Em uma proposta de utilização do quadro teórico do IFE para elaboração de cursos no EMI, o objetivo principal desta tese é analisar as necessidades de uso da língua inglesa em dois contextos: o contexto profissional do desenvolvedor de sistemas de computadores e o contexto das aulas das disciplinas técnicas (do eixo tecnológico) do Curso Técnico em Informática para Internet (CTIEMII) do Campus Rio Branco do Instituto Federal do Acre (IFAC). A análise visa a identificação de elementos para a elaboração de uma proposta de programa de ensinoaprendizagem de língua inglesa baseado em gêneros, habilidades e atitudes requeridas na formação do jovem no ensino integrado que forma técnicos em desenvolvimento de sistemas para Web. De maneira específica, procura-se i) identificar, por meio da análise dos documentos norteadores nacionais, do projeto pedagógico de curso do CTIEMII do IFAC e do plano de ensino do componente curricular língua inglesa desse curso, a presença dos objetivos para a formação do educando; ii) identificar, por meio de análise de necessidades, mediante aplicação de que...

The learning of a foreign language in this context can be inserted in the area of English for Specific Purposes – ESP (IFE in Portuguese) (BROWN, 2016; HYON, 2018; WOODROW, 2018). The main objective of this thesis is to analyze the students’ needs of English language use in two contexts: the professional context of the computer system developer and the context of the classes (Technological axis) of the Technical Course in Web Development (CTIEMII) at the Rio Branco Campus of the Federal Institute of Acre (IFAC). The analysis aims at identifying elements which allow elaborating a proposal of an Englishlanguage teaching program based on genres, skills and attitudes required in the education of the youngs at the integrated course for Web development technicians. The objectives are specifically, i) to identify, through the analysis of the national documents, the pedagogical project of the CTIEMII at IFAC and the teaching plan of the English language subject, the presence of the objectives for the student education; ii) to identify, through the needs analysis, with the application of questionnaires and interviews with professionals, coordinators, teachers and students, aspects of the use of the English language that are necessary to the students' performance in the technical subjects of...

The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the needs of the third year Management students of the Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences at BaSkent University with regard to the English-Turkish Translation Course through the perceptions of the students / course instructors including the course designer / graduates who took the course / subject-area instructors of the Department of Management / and the professionals practicing in different fields of management and business administration. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were extended to the course designer and the instructors who teach the course for the improvement of the course. The data collection instruments used for the study were a Needs Analysis Questionnaire administered to fifty-three students and structured interviews conducted with the six course instructors, sixteen departmental instructors, ten graduates and ten professionals. The reliability of the questionnaire was measured by using Cronbach Alpha test and all the instruments were pilot-tested. Both qualitative and quantitative data were gathered which were analyzed using descriptive statistics (percentages and frequencies). The study brought into light the fact that translation particularly from English into Turkish was perceived to be a very important skill primarily in students&rsquo / departmental studies most of which they do in Turkish and for which they do most of their field-specific readings in English, which renders transfer from the foreign language into the native language indispensable. Perceptions of the participants also revealed that the translation course, in addition to improving the translation skill, raised competence in the foreign language, primarily in terms of enhancing knowledge of vocabulary, reading comprehension skill and writing skill. One of the major strengths of the translation course was found out to be the total relevance of the content of its translation materials to the students&rsquo / area of study. Preferences of the course instructors and the students were generally in line with the requirements of the target situations and the suggestions of the literature. Based on the findings, recommendations were extended to the course designer and the instructors. The most important ones included were extending the duration of the course from one semester to two semesters / shifting from sentence-level to paragraph-level and text-level translations / more emphasis on communicative rather than faithful translation / incorporation of authentic materials such as texts from magazines and newspapers and texts used in professional life into the course materials in addition to the texts extracted from field-specific course books and resources already used in the course for translation.

O Inglês para Fins Específicos é a abordagem de ensino que ancora o trabalho feito no instituto federal no qual trabalho. Ele tem como premissa básica o ensino focado em uma análise de necessidades, ou seja, tudo o que é ensinado/aprendido está em alinhamento com o que os aprendizes necessitam em seu ambiente acadêmico e profissional. Por causa de mitos e dogmas enraizados ao longo das décadas, porém, a abordagem transformou-se exclusivamente no ensino de leitura e originou distorções na proposta original. O estudo parte da pergunta de pesquisa: O que o aluno participante desta pesquisa vê como prioridade em sua aprendizagem de inglês na escola? Outras perguntas surgiram após conversar com os dados coletados: Por que os alunos participantes querem um ensino e a escola propicia outro?; O que falta na sala de aula para amenizar essa lacuna entre o desejo dos alunos-participantes e a oferta da escola?; e, O que nós, professores, podemos fazer em relação às propostas pedagógicas para preencher esse espaço, à luz dos dados coletados e da revisão de literatura? Investigo então o posionamento de 65 aprendizes do 3 ano do ensino médio da escola na qual trabalho, através de questionários e entrevista nos moldes de um grupo focal com 5 participantes, sobre o que eles veem como prioridade na aprendizagem de inglês na escola e reflito sobre práticas pedagógicas que poderiam atender às necessidades apontadas pelos participantes. Dentro do espírito (in)disciplinar da Linguística Aplicada e dentro de um paradigma qualitativo, a análise das respostas pautou-se na recorrência de temas nas respostas às perguntas do questionário e participação no grupo focal. Temas que recorreram com frequência alta formaram categorias que serviram de base para a discussão. Selecionei duas perguntas do questionário para a análise: a pergunta (9) como você espera que seja o ensino de inglês no Ensino Médio? e a (10) quais habilidades vocês gostariam de desenvolver?, por sua relação direta com o objetivo da pesquisa. A categoria que emergiu das menções mais recorrentes nos proferimentos dos alunos foi comunicação oral, em um total de 62 menções. Outras oito categorias emergiram do corpus. Considerei frequência alta, e por isso categórica, a quantidade de 17 menções. A partir desses resultados, defendo neste trabalho que a voz do aluno (que grita urgência ao aprendizado da comunicação oral) seja ouvida nesse processo, e que uma nova pedagogia pós-metodológica seja implantada no ensino-aprendizagem de línguas no ensino médio e técnico / English for Specific Purposes is the approach that supports the work done at the federal institute where I teach. Its primary premise is the process of teaching based on a needs analysis, i.e., everything that is taught/learned is in alignment with what learners need in their academic and professional environment. Because of myths and dogmas rooted over the decades, however, the approach became exclusively the teaching of reading and originated distortions from the original proposal. The study starts with the following research question: What do the students that participate in this research see as a priority in their learning of English in school? Other questions arose after dealing with the data: Why do students want to learn something and the school provide something else?; What is missing in the classroom to minimize the gap between the desire of the participant students and what the school provides?; and, What can we, teachers, do in relation to pedagogical proposals to fill this gap, in light of the collected data and the literature review? I then investigate the opinion of 65 apprentices in the 3rd year of high school, through questionnaires and a focal group interview with 5 participants, questioning what they see as a priority in learning English in school and then I reflect on pedagogical practices that could meet the needs identified by the participants. In the spirit of the (in)disciplinary Applied Linguistics and within a qualitative paradigm, the analysis of the responses was based on recurrent themes in the responses to the questions in the questionnaire and participation in the focus group. Themes that recurred frequently formed categories that were the basis for the discussion. I selected two questions for analysis: the question (9) "how do you expect the English teaching to be in high school?" and (10) "what language skills would you like to develop?" because of its direct relationship with the goal of this research. The category that emerged from the most recurrent students utterances was "oral communication" in a total of 62 entries. Another eight categories emerged from the data. I considered the quantity of 17 entries "high frequency", and therefore categorical. From these results, I argue in this paper that the students voice (that screams urgency in learning oral communication) to be heard in this process, and that a new post-methodological pedagogy is implemented in the teaching and learning of languages in high/technical schools

Embasados, principalmente, nos achados de Hutchinson e Waters (1984, 1987) e Dudley-Evans e St John (1998), discutimos a relevância da análise de necessidades como instrumento essencial para o planejamento de um curso para propósitos específicos mais adequado às necessidades e aos interesses de um público-alvo. A análise de dados mostra a importância que o conhecimento teórico sobre o ensino de línguas para propósitos específicos tem no trabalho de profissionais que se propõem a atuar nessa, fértil e crescente, área do ensino de línguas. Esta pesquisa pode ser utilizada como um embasamento teórico inicial para professores de língua estrangeira, sobretudo língua inglesa, que queiram conhecer ou saber mais a respeito do planejamento de um curso para propósitos específicos.

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) is the approach used in the Centro de Ensino e Pesquisa de Línguas Estrangeiras Instrumentais (CEPESLI/UFSM) for the development and implementation of Portuguese courses to Uruguayan Federal Agents, supported by Brazil‟s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The current project aims at teaching Portuguese to correctional officers in order to prepare them to interact with Brazilians convicts either when living or passing by Uruguay. In this context, given the fact that most of the border prison guards are native speakers of Uruguayan Portuguese (PU), a variety of Brazilian Portuguese, we found it relevant to investigate further their learning needs in learning that variety. Hence, this study aims to present a Needs Analysis for teaching/learning Brazilian Portuguese to/by Uruguayan Portuguese speakers. For that purpose, we initially proceeded to study the characteristics of the border Uruguay-Brazil and Uruguayan Portuguese in their historical, linguistic, social and political aspects (CARVALHO, 2003a, 2003b, 2007, 2008, 2010; MILÁN, SAWARIS e WELTER, 1996; e STURZA, 2005, 2006, 2014). Since we also based our research on the Language for Specific Purposes Approach, we present its history, characteristics and a review or the bibliography on the teaching of Portuguese as a Foreign Language according to this approach (HUTCHINSON e WATERS, 1987; e DUDLEY-EVANS e ST. JOHN, 1998). Regarding the methodology to identify the UP speakers‟ beliefs we followed Barcelos (1995, 2000, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2007) and Pajares (1992); and Error Analysis (CORDER, 1967, 1971; SANTOS GARGALLO, 2004) to analyze the linguistic production in Portuguese of Uruguayan PU speakers, in contrast to the Brazilian Portuguese. The subjects of this study were four Uruguayan prison officers, all men, at Cerro Carancho, in Rivera-ROU. The results indicate that the correctional officers should learn the Brazilian Portuguese variety specifically to communicate with Brazilians who are in Uruguayan prisons; it also showed that subjects believe they need to learn to write in Portuguese, fix some aspects of their speech and learn ("improve") their Portuguese to speak to Brazilians who are not from the border area. Finally, the analysis shows that the subjects ignore the origins of their native language, what might be useful in the learning of Brazilian Portuguese as well as it would be to know about some varieties of Portuguese; that they need to cope some linguistic and sociolinguistic problems related to the use of stigmatized forms and errors of relevance and/or discursive errors. / A Abordagem Instrumental de ensino de línguas é a base teórica utilizada pelo Centro de Ensino e Pesquisa de Línguas Estrangeiras Instrumentais (CEPESLI) na elaboração e execução dos cursos relacionados aos projetos do Ministério das Relações Exteriores do Brasil para a capacitação em português como língua estrangeira instrumental de agentes do governo uruguaio. O projeto que se desenvolve atualmente diz respeito à capacitação de agentes penitenciários, com o intuito de lhes proporcionar conhecimento instrumental de português para interagir em português com brasileiros residentes ou de passagem pelo Uruguai. Nesse contexto, tendo em vista o fato de que grande parte dos agentes penitenciários fronteiriços é falante de uma variedade de português, o português uruguaio (PU), consideramos relevante investigar mais a fundo suas necessidades de aprendizagem do português utilizado no Brasil (PB). Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo apresentar uma Análise de Necessidades para o ensino/aprendizagem de PB a falantes de PU. Para tanto, inicialmente procedemos ao estudo das características da fronteira Uruguai-Brasil e do português uruguaio em seus aspectos histórico, linguístico, social e político (CARVALHO, 2003a, 2003b, 2007, 2008, 2010; MILÁN, SAWARIS e WELTER, 1996; e STURZA, 2005, 2006, 2014; etc.). Também buscamos como referência teórica os pressupostos da abordagem instrumental, seu histórico, suas características gerais e seu vínculo com o ensino de português como língua estrangeira para o público em geral e para falantes de PU (HUTCHINSON e WATERS, 1987; e DUDLEY-EVANS e ST. JOHN, 1998; etc.). Com relação à metodologia, utilizamos o estudo de crenças (BARCELOS, 1995, 2000, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2007; PAJARES, 1992, etc. ) para levantar as crenças de falantes de PU sobre o uso e a aprendizagem de português; e a Análise de Erros (CORDER, 1967, 1971; SANTOS GARGALLO, 2004; etc.) para analisar a produção linguística em português de agentes penitenciários uruguaios, falantes de PU, em contraste com o PB. Os sujeitos participantes desse estudo foram quatro agentes penitenciários uruguaios, homens, funcionários da penitenciária Cerro Carancho, localizada na cidade de Rivera-ROU. Os resultados indicaram que os sujeitos precisam aprender a variedade brasileira do português (PB) com fins específicos para se comunicar com brasileiros que se encontram em situação de privação de liberdade nas penitenciárias uruguaias; evidenciou também que os sujeitos acreditam que precisam aprender a escrever em português; corrigir alguns aspectos da fala; e aprender ( melhorar ) português para usar com brasileiros que não são da fronteira. Por último, as análises evidenciaram que os sujeitos necessitam aprimorar seus conhecimentos sobre a origem de sua língua materna; sobre as variedades do português e alguns problemas linguísticos e sociolinguísticos relacionados ao uso de formas estigmatizantes e erros de pertinência e/ou discursivos.

Les commentaires sportifs télévisés en anglais n’ont jamais été envisagés selon les principes de l’analyse du discours, c’est-à-dire en mettant en rapport leurs propriétés formelles avec les conditions dans lesquelles ils sont produits et avec les enjeux sociaux, économiques et culturels qu’ils portent. En nous appuyant sur un corpus transcrit par nos soins, composé de cinq retransmissions sportives de forme et de contenu variés (rugby, football, athlétisme et catch), nous tentons de répondre à la question suivante : les commentaires sportifs télévisés en anglais constituent-ils un genre de discours spécialisé ? Leur nature spontanée, de même que la tension entre information et divertissement qui les traverse, semblent incompatibles avec la conception dominante de la spécialisation, qui fait la part belle à la terminologie et à la transmission de connaissances. L’examen du corpus témoigne pourtant d’une réflexion sur les besoins des téléspectateurs et sur la manière d’y répondre. Ainsi, les commentateurs s’appuient sur les images pour réduire la syntaxe à l’essentiel et mettre en relief la dimension cognitive des procès ; par ailleurs, ils cherchent à refléter au mieux les valeurs du sport commenté et à s’accommoder des contraintes qui pèsent sur eux. En définitive, l’étude des commentaires sportifs télévisés démontre le bien-fondé d’une approche graduée de la notion de spécialité qui, en reposant principalement sur la recherche d’efficacité, présente l’avantage de valoir autant pour les discours « manifestement spécialisés » (Petit : 2010) que pour les sciences humaines. / Live sports commentary in English has never been studied following the principles of discourse analysis, which consist in linking its formal properties with its context of production and social, cultural and economic implications. Using the corpus that I transcribed, composed of five sports broadcasts of diverse forms and contents (rugby, football, athletics and wrestling), I attempt to answer the following question: is live sports commentary a specialised genre? Its spontaneous nature and its constant tension between information and entertainment seem hard to reconcile with the prevailing conception of specialisation, which is based upon such notions as terminology and knowledge transfer. Yet, the corpus study shows evidence of a reflection on the viewers’ needs and on how to address them. Commentators tend to rely on the images to reduce syntax to the essence and to emphasise the cognitive dimension of the situations they describe. They also strive to reflect the values of the sports they commentate and to put up with the constraints they face.The study of live sports commentary substantiates a graded approach of specialisation which, by resting mainly upon the speaker’s search for efficiency, has the benefit of applying to discourses that are “evidently specialised” (Petit 2010) as well as to social sciences.
