These initiatives, called the referenced field of Economic Development, are promoted as alternatives labor and social inclusion. The aim of this study was to investigate the inclusion of women in three experiments solidarity economy in the northern mining. We sought to examine to what extent this format work provides access to a regular income as the possibility of gains autonomy, recognition, qualification and self esteem / dignity. The study revealed that the groups studied undergo a series of shortcomings and are in a stage of dependence of incubation. The income gained for workers, not allowed an effective change in the output of poverty and precariousness, although significant improvements are seen. The changes in the sexual division of labor within and outside of workspaces, yet are barely noticeable. At another level, the impact of these experiences manifest themselves in strengthening social ties and belonging and social inclusion. / Nos últimos anos, tem crescido a participação de mulheres trabalhadoras em iniciativas populares de geração de trabalho e renda, baseadas no associativismo e em princípios de solidariedade, cooperação e autogestão. Essas iniciativas, referenciadas no chamado campo da Economia Solidária, são fomentadas como alternativas de trabalho e inclusão social. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a inserção das mulheres em três experiências de economia solidária na região norte mineira. Buscou-se analisar em que medida esse formato de trabalho possibilita o acesso a uma renda regular como a possibilidade de ganhos de autonomia, de reconhecimento, de qualificação e de autoestima/dignidade. O estudo revelou que os grupos pesquisados passam por uma série de deficiências e encontram-se em um estágio de dependência de incubação. A renda adquirida, para as trabalhadoras, não possibilitou uma mudança efetiva na saída das situações de pobreza e precariedade, embora melhorias sensíveis sejam percebidas. As mudanças na divisão sexual do trabalho, dentro e fora dos espaços de trabalho, ainda são pouco perceptíveis. Em outro plano, os impactos dessas experiências manifestam-se no fortalecimento dos laços sociais e de pertencimento e na inclusão social.

The aim of the study is to contribute to a better understanding of how educators relate to social inclusion in preschool. Educators' perception of social inclusion is an important topic to investigate because there are often children who temporarily or permanently need special support in preschool. The inclusion of children in preschool is considered important and educators have a central role and responsibility to include all children in preschool. According to our experience, there is a great variety of how educators perceive the work of social inclusion in preschool.   In order to answer the question of how educators relate to social inclusion in preschool, it is chosen to conduct semi-structured, qualitative interviews. We interviewed eight preschool educators to find out how they perceive their work with social inclusion. The two themes that appeared in the educators’ answers were inclusion and exclusion.   The study found that preschool educators' work with social inclusion is complex. Educators in the study considered that all children have the right to enter into a social context, to be socially included, and they acknowledges their responsibility to ensure that all children are included. They expressed that it is not the responsibility of the children, but the adults, to ensure that all children are included in the group. Several of the educators express that there are difficulties and challenges with inclusion work, and state that children need to master certain social skills in order to be able to be included. Adaptation will lead to all children being given the opportunity to participate and succeed. The study further shows that the interviewed educators consider themselves responsible for creating opportunities that enable inclusion. The result of the study shows that for a functioning work with social inclusion, educator’ needs to form a common view and gain an understanding of the concepts of inclusion and exclusion among preschool teachers. The way educators perceive social inclusion, affects how educators work with social inclusion in preschool. In order to gain insight into, and in a more concrete way, an understanding of how preschool educators relate to social inclusion, it was chosen to accomplish this study. It is hoped that other preschool educators can benefit from the study's results in their professional role in the future.

Esse fato ocorre com técnicas e procedimentos singulares e facilitadores no sentido do exercício dessa ação. A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo investigar os reflexos nas motivações dos procedimentos comunicativos de grupos específicos, considerando resultados relevantes a partir de observações e análises de resultados midiáticos, à luz de possibilidades externas a padrões previamente estabelecidos. O cenário é o da cidade de Bauru, interior de São Paulo, onde foi realizada pesquisa de campo com recorte em três personagens produtores de ações comunicacionais à margem da mídia massiva. A intenção foi a de compreender formas de transformação em notícia midiática, embora, em alguns casos, sem ser esta a intenção inicial. Agregam-se referenciais teóricos no campo da Comunicação, em especial da Folkcomunicação, no sentido de reiterar as possibilidades e estratégias de conquistas de espaços e afirmação de identidades. À guisa de conclusão, coloca-se em pauta questões relacionadas a preconceitos e estereótipos afirmados e reafirmados em práticas midiáticas. / It is assumed that the marginalized population produces interactive communication in its own way. It is verified that this fact occurs with singular techniques, procedures and facilitators in the sense of the exercise of this action. The present research aims to investigate the reflexes in the motivations of the procedures of specific groups, considering relevant results from observations and analysis of mediatic results, in light of possibilities outside the previously established standards. The scenario is the city of Bauru, in the interior of São Paulo, where a field research was carried out with a cut in three characters that produce communication actions on the margins of the mass media. The intention was to understand forms of transformation in news media, although in some cases, this is not the initial intention. Theoretical references are added in the field of Communication, especially Folkcommunication, in order to reiterate the possibilities and strategies of space conquests and affirmation of identities. As a conclusion, issues related to prejudices and stereotypes affirmed and reaffirmed in media practices are put forward.

This thesis draws on the experiences of 21 young people transitioning from a special school for students with labels of moderate learning difficulty, to further education college. Taking a disability studies approach, that is, viewing disability as a social and political response to human diversity, I examine some social processes through which student identity and agency meanings may be negotiated during transition. Times of change offer circumstances of opportunity in which new identity and agency meanings may be improvised and tested in various forms. Some students found emergent ways to subvert and transgress expectations, given the different labels applied to them. Transition, with its focus on future change, offers limbic moments which appear to support situations for such opportunistic transgression. Of particular interest are the environments and circumstances that support or promote broadening of identity and agency options, because an understanding of these may enable the engineering of such situations. Whilst the students were transitioning to college, my own researcher subjectivities and understandings of ‘knowledge’ were also in flux. I describe the considerable influence these changes had on the research processes and my understandings of identity and agency. I propose that identity and agency meanings, whilst fluid and ever-changing, are linked with particular people and situated in particular social sites. With this in mind, and as a provocation to new ways of thinking I discuss foundation level further education as an ethical project, envisaging circumstances that may support and promote broader, more positive opportunities for identity and agency negotiations amongst young people with labels of learning disability. In this context, further education is re-imagined as an opportunity for potential empowerment, repositioning learning disabled students as agents of social change.

Este trabalho analisa o processo de implantação e desenvolvimento dos cursos técnicos ofertados no Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Ceará (IFCE), precisamente nos campi de Fortaleza, Maracanaú e Morada Nova por meio do Programa Nacional de Acesso ao Ensino Técnico e Emprego (PRONATEC), cujo subprograma é a Bolsa Formação Estudante. A finalidade desse trabalho é identificar os resultados obtidos pelo PRONATEC nos campi citados, quanto aos indicadores de acesso, permanência e êxito do processo formativo dos/as estudantes, analisando os fatores surgidos que de alguma forma possam ter influenciado nos resultados obtidos. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, que foi orientado por análise bibliográfica e documental que fundamentam o referencial teórico referente ao tema facilitando a compreensão de aspectos relevantes acerca do PRONATEC enquanto Programa de inclusão social. Buscou-se responder, neste estudo, à seguinte questão: como se deu o processo de educação profissional técnica de nível médio no âmbito do Pronatec nos cursos ofertados pelo IFCE? A análise desta questão é a essência do objetivo geral desta investigação, cujos objetivos específicos se detiveram em: explanar a trajetória da educação profissional técnica de nível médio no Brasil relacionando-a com desenvolvimento produtivo e social; contextualizar o PRONATEC enquanto programa de inclusão social investigando o processo de implantação dos cursos técnicos de nível médio ofertados por esse Programa em três campi do IFCE; apresentar os resultados dos indicadores de acesso, permanência e êxito quanto ao processo formativo dos/as alunos/as beneficiários/as do Pronatec no IFCE analisando possíveis fatores que contribuíram para os resultados obtidos. Inicialmente é feita uma breve exposição sobre a história da educação profissional no Brasil relacionando-a com desenvolvimento produtivo e social. Em seguida aborda-se o programa com enfoque na implantação nacional e no IFCE, contextualizando-o enquanto programa de inclusão social do governo Dilma Housseff. Por último, faz-se uma análise acerca do desenvolvimento dos cursos técnicos Pronatec nos campi pesquisados apresentando seus resultados e fazendo uma análise desses dados. Desta forma, pretende-se contribuir, com este estudo, para uma melhor compreensão e reflexão acerca do Pronatec enquanto programa de inclusão social da educação profissional por meio da análise do seu processo de implantação, desenvolvimento e resultados obtidos no processo formativo dos/as seus/as estudantes quanto ao acesso, permanência e êxito. / This paper analyzes the process of implantation and development of the technical courses offered in the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Ceará (IFCE), more specifically on the campuses of Fortaleza, Maracanaú and Morada Nova through the National Program of Access to Technical Education and Employment (PRONATEC), the subprogram of which is the Student Education Scholarship. The goal of this work is to identity the results obtained through the PRONATEC on the cited campuses, as to the indicators of access, permanence and success of the educational process of the students, analyzing the factors which emerged which in some way could have influenced the results obtained. It is a case study which was orientated by a bibliographical and documental analysis which gave the basis for the theoretical referential regarding the theme facilitating the comprehension of relevant aspects about the PRONATEC as a social inclusion program. We sought to answer in this study the following question: how did the process of technical professional education at the high school level take place in the ambiance of the PRONATEC in the courses offered by the IFCE? The analysis of this issue is the essence of the general goal of this investigation, the specific goals of which are: explain the trajectory of technical professional education at the high school level in Brazil relating it to productive and social development; contextualize the PRONATEC as a social inclusion program investigating the process of implantation of the technical courses at the high school level offered by this Program on three campuses of the IFCE; present the results of the indicators of access, permanence and success as to the educational process of the students benefitted by the PRONATEC at the IFCE analyzing the possible factors which contributed to the results obtained. Initially, there is a brief exposition about the history of professional education in Brazil relating it to productive and social development. There follows an approach to the program with a focus on the national implantation and in the IFCE contextualizing it as a program of social inclusion of the Dilma Housseff government. Finally, an analysis is made of the development of the PRONATEC technical courses on the campuses researched presenting their results and making an analysis of this data. In this way one intends to contribute, with this study, to a better comprehension and reflection about the PRONATEC as a social inclusion program of professional education through the analysis of its implantation and development process and of the results obtained in the educational process of its students relating to access, permanence and success.

Esta pesquisa apresenta uma proposta de intervenção colaborativa do designer no processo de desenvolvimento de produtos de Tecnologia Assistiva (TA). A intenção dessa proposta foi sugerir uma forma de atuação colaborativa e integrada do designer, que considere o usuário como protagonista de todo o processo e contribua para com os demais profissionais que hoje atuam no desenvolvimento de TA. A proposta objetivou favorecer ainda, o desenvolvimento de produtos mais adequados aos contextos reais e sociais do usuário e que assim potencializem a pessoa com deficiência nas tarefas das atividades diárias com vistas a inclusão social e escolar. Para atingir o objetivo principal da pesquisa, a estratégia adotada foi a realização de uma pesquisa de campo exploratória através da análise de um caso – criança com deficiência, com sete anos de idade, que estava no início da terapia no centro de reabilitação e que frequentava uma escola de ensino regular. Este estudo considerou que as demandas específicas de pessoas com deficiência, sobretudo as crianças, devem merecer a devida atenção para indicarem os atributos a serem considerados com vistas aos requisitos de projeto de produtos assistivos. / The development of the social inclusion process, which is built from policies, laws, projects and services, configures a new scenario that demands collective actions from society as a whole. Universities, companies, associations and professionals must think, research and act to create opportunities to effectively enable all individuals to use the built environment, and all products and services integrated within it, with safety and comfort. These collective actions require the participation of several professionals at the places attended by the users, where real demands can be identified and where strategies can be operationalized. The key to achieve this is an integrated and collaborative development process for Assistive technology (AT) products, reinforced through an interdisciplinary work in which the user - a disabled child - is the protagonist of the whole process. Therefore, this study presents a proposal for a collaborative designer's intervention in the Assistive Technology development process. The proposal intends to suggest a form of integrated and collaborative action, which considers the user as the protagonist of the whole process, and also to contribute with other professionals that currently work on the development of new AT products. Additionally, the proposal seeks to favor the creation of products that are more appropriate for the user's social and daily reality, and that because that, are able to potentiate the disabled people on their daily activities in order to accomplish social and educational inclusion. To fulfill this research's main objective, the chosen strategy was to do an exploratory field research through case analysis: disabled child, seven years old, who was starting his treatment at the rehabilitation center and that was at the same time going to regular school. This study considers that the specific demands of disabled people, especially children, deserve a fair amount of attention because they can indicate attributes that should be taken into consideration on the development of assistive technology products.

Esta dissertação aborda a problemática relacionada às atividades laborais de pessoas portadoras de deficiência (PPD) mental moderada e leve treinável, que trabalham em centros abrigados (CAZON e COOPA) em Porto Alegre (RS). Com base nos protocolos Maeces e ESAP , foi desenvolvido um protocolo para mapeamento/avaliação das habilidades das PPDs, que mostrou que habilidades como atenção, destreza manual, imaginação e trabalho em grupo são subutilizadas atualmente e devem ser maximizadas em um novo sistema de trabalho. O levantamento também mostrou que a demanda, tanto das PPDs quanto de pais e professores, é por mais atividades, sem descontinuidade, já que a atividade laboral é importante, principalmente, para o equilíbrio emocional da população amostrada. / This study evaluated the level of difficulty of the activities carried out by people with medium level mental disabilities, who work at two protected centers (CAZON and COOPA) at Porto Alegre/RS. Work abilities were mapped with a protocol based on Maeces and ESAP protocols. The results showed that abilities such as attention, manual dexterity, imagination and work in group are sub used, and therefore should be engaged in a new work system. People with mental disabilities, their parents, relatives and professionals acting at the centers consider that the work system should also involve more continuous activities, because work is very important for the quality of life of this specific population.
