Arbetsledarrollen : påverkan av bristande praktisk erfarenhet hos nyexaminerad byggnadsingenjör. / The Supervisor Role : impact of lacking practical experience of the newly qualified civil engineer.Lund, Sofia, Selle, Felicia January 2016 (has links)
Purpose: The construction industry is facing changes as academic education is becoming more common. Practical competence will be lost as newly graduated civil engineers often lack practical experience. As the industry is characterized by a clear identification and where a common view is that "you ought to have experience from construction work", this change is problematic. This study focuses on the supervisors role, where the aim of the report is to analyze how newly graduated civil engineers handle the lack of practical experience. Method: In order to achieve the objective of the study, the supervisor role has been studied at two large construction companies. To get a deep and fair view of the role, site managers and construction workers, together with supervisors with both practical experience and theoretical background have been studied. The nature of the study is qualitative where empirical data has been collected through interviews, observation, and analysis of internal company documents. Findings: The analysis is that the supervisors’ role is characterized by a certain number of tasks and operations. From these, connections can be made to how management should be handled, and the characteristics required in such operations. The last part includes collective identification within the industry and its pressure on the role. From these aspects the result is summarized. The affect is that newly graduated civil engineers require a more analytical and information seeking mindset when lacking practical experience. Implications: The conclusion of this study is that practical experience is an advantage in the role of supervisor, and that it is important to give the chance for supervisors to gain practical experience. In compensation for the lack of practical experience of newly graduated civil engineers, they instead have an analytical and information- seeking mindset. They also possess basic knowledge of the complete building process. The characteristics that are more important to focus on than experience are: having commitment, clarity in communication, clear structure and sense of initiative. The critical factors for leading the construction production is to disseminate information, take initiative, react to unexpected crises and allocate resources. Limitations: The study focuses on the role of supervisor at two major construction companies. If the study had also included smaller construction companies, a wider and more general conclusion of the role at large, could have been made. The study would be improved if more observations were possible to implement. To also observe the role from different occupational groups, other aspects and a wider analysis would have been possible to conduct. Keywords: Supervisor’s role in construction industry, Mintzberg's leadership roles, first-line manager, practical experience/academic education, collective identity. / Syfte: Byggbranschen står inför en del förändringar då akademisk utbildning blir allt vanligare. Praktisk kompetens går förlorad då nyexaminerade byggnadsingenjörer ofta saknar praktisk erfarenhet. Då branschen präglas av en tydlig identifiering och samhörighet där ”man ska ha varit ute i produktionen”, blir denna förändring problematisk. Denna studie fokuserar på arbetsledarrollen där målet med rapporten är att analysera hur nyexaminerade byggnadsingenjörer hanterar bristande praktisk erfarenhet. Metod: För att uppnå målet med studien har arbetsledarrollen studerats på två större byggföretag. Platschefer och yrkesarbetare samt arbetsledare med både praktisk erfarenhet och teoretisk bakgrund har studerats för att få en djup och rättvis bild av rollen. Studien är av kvalitativ karaktär där empirisk data har samlats in i form av intervjuer, observation och analys av företagens interna dokument. Resultat: Analysen är att arbetsledarrollen präglas av ett visst antal arbetsuppgifter och arbetsmoment. Utifrån dessa kan tydliga kopplingar dras till hur ledandet bör ske och vilka egenskaper som krävs i samband med dessa moment. Sista delen innefattar den kollektiva identifieringen inom branschen samt dess påtryckningar på rollen. Från dessa aspekter sammanfattas resultatet till att arbetsledarrollen påverkas genom att nyexaminerade byggnadsingenjörer kräver ett mer analytiskt och informationssökande tänk vid avsaknaden av praktisk erfarenhet. Konsekvenser: Slutsatsen är att praktisk erfarenhet är en fördel i rollen som arbetsledare, samt att det är av vikt att ge arbetsledare möjligheten till ökad praktisk erfarenhet. Som kompensation för den bristande praktiska erfarenheten hos nyexaminerade byggnadsingenjörer har de en helhetsbild över byggprocessen samt att de i större utsträckning söker upp och analyserar information. De egenskaper som är viktigare att fokusera på än erfarenhet är engagemang, tydlighet, struktur och initiativtagande. Samt de avgörande faktorerna för att leda byggproduktionen är att kunna sprida information, ta initiativ, agera vid oväntade kriser, samt fördela resurser. Begränsningar: Studien fokuserar på arbetsledare vid två större byggföretag. Om studien även hade omfattat mindre byggföretag hade bredare och mer generella slutsatser för rollen i stort kunnat göras. Studien hade förbättrats om fler deltagande observationer hade varit möjligt att genomföra. Att även observera rollen utifrån olika yrkesgrupper hade kunnat bidra till andra aspekter i analysen. Nyckelord: Arbetsledarrollen i byggbranschen, Mintzbergs ledarroller, första linjens chef, praktisk erfarenhet/akademisk utbildning, kollektiv identitet.

[pt] A dissertação Reconfigurações de identidades de projeto no

objetivo de analisar a construção das identidades de um
imigrante brasileiro que
foi para os Estados Unidos com o objetivo de buscar
formação acadêmica -
Doutorado. A partir da abordagem das narrativas de
experiências em narrativas de
estórias de vida, procuramos identificar os sistemas de

entrevistado para a construção dos selves nas narrativas a
partir, principalmente,
de suas avaliações. Para tal, organizamos o discurso do
entrevistado em macroblocos
narrativo-temáticos que mostram a forma como ele organiza
suas
experiências; e é em uma série de micro-blocos narrativos,
que ele faz as
configurações e reconfigurações de suas identidades. Na
busca da construção da
coerência, o entrevistado mostra que precisa lidar não
apenas com o ambiente
acadêmico no qual está inserido, mas também com os valores
sócio-culturais da
sociedade hospedeira e da sociedade de origem, construindo
identidades que os
definem positivamente estando lá, no entre-lugar da
academia/vida social, e,
voltando para o aqui, quando reconfigura suas identidades
a partir das
experiências lá vivenciadas. A pesquisa traz contribuições
para um universo
pouco explorado no que se refere ao estudo de estórias de
vida de imigrantes, que
têm, inicialmente, como identidades de projeto, a formação

the objective of analyzing the construction of the
identities of a Brazilian
immigrant that has been to the United States intending to
achieve academic
education - Doctorate degree. Using an approach based in
the experience
narratives and narratives of life stories, we have managed
to identify the
coherence systems adopted by the interviewee to construct
their selves during
their narratives, mainly based on their assessment.
Therefore, we have organized
the interviewee´s speeches in narrative-thematic macro-
blocks showing the way
upon which he organizes his experiences; and it is during
a series of narrative
micro-blocks that he makes the configurations and
reconfigurations of his
identities. During the search for coherence construction,
the interviewee shows he
needs to deal not only with the academic environment to
which he is introduced,
but also with socio-cultural values of host and origin
society, constructing
identities that positively define them being there, in
academic / social life intersite,
and, coming back to the here, when he reconfigure his
identities based on
experiences lived there. The research contributes to a
poorly explored universe as
it refers to immigrant life stories, which initially have
as project identity the
academic education during the migration process.

Previous issue date: 2015-02-26 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This study aimed to assess the understanding of nursing students about the process of nursing care, which determine the understanding of these on the spiritual nursing care, identify whether to offer patients a spiritual nursing care from the Understanding these, describe the proposed curriculum of this institution is developed in order to favor a committed practice with the human being as a whole, involving spiritual care, and identify if people cared for by students in traineeship presented or shown to have a relationship mutual with the world and with God. This is a field research, descriptive, with a qualitative approach, having as a scope a nursing theory based on interactive process proposed by Dr. Callista Roy, who takes as a philosophical assumption that people have mutual relationships with the world and with God. The research was conducted at the Federal University of Paraíba, linked to the Health Sciences Centre and Department of Clinical Nursing, precisely in Nursing Techniques Laboratory, located in the city of João Pessoa / PB. The study gathered six nursing students of the tenth period selected by the inclusion criteria. Data were collected consecutively to the approval of this research by the Ethics Committee, under CAAE No 35391514.3.0000.5188. Therefore, with respect to data collection, it was held in October 2014, under the guidance of a form containing relevant issues to the study objectives, pointing out that, for the record data, a recording system was used audio, previously clarified as consentimento. Já term the technique used for this purpose was the focal group. Data analysis occurred through the Bardin content analysis technique. It was observed that the students correlate the care process with the exhibition held in the classroom and as enabler tool of development of their motor skills, rather than reflections on the essence of care. Thus, they did not know and need to set directly spiritual nursing care; before, correlated with spirituality and religiosity. Unanimously affirmed the importance of offering patients a spiritual nursing care, but the immaturity of the clinical practice, have not done due to numerous technical procedures to be performed, while also stating that the proposed curriculum of this institution favored this learning and, finally, that all people cared for them had a mutual relationship with the world and with God. However, it is nurses to perform and understand the importance of spiritual care, to exercise it continuously to view the inseparably patient, as it really is, taking into account their ethical and moral values grounded in pointing to a practice based on the scientific rigor, but also the love and commitment for others, moving away from the daily care mechanistic justified by arguments failed. / O presente estudo teve como objetivos averiguar o entendimento dos discentes de enfermagem a respeito do processo de cuidar em enfermagem, averiguar qual o entendimento destes sobre o cuidado de enfermagem espiritual, identificar se é necessário oferecer aos pacientes um cuidado de enfermagem espiritual, a partir da compreensão destes, descrever se a proposta curricular desta instituição é desenvolvida na perspectiva de favorecer uma prática compromissada com o ser humano em sua totalidade, envolvendo o cuidado espiritual, bem como identificar se as pessoas cuidadas pelos discentes em estágio curricular apresentaram ou demonstraram ter um relacionamento mútuo com o mundo e com Deus. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de campo, de natureza descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, tendo como escopo referencial uma teoria de enfermagem baseada no processo interativo proposta pela Drª. Callista Roy, que assume como pressuposto filosófico que as pessoas têm relacionamentos mútuos com o mundo e com Deus. A investigação foi realizada na Universidade Federal da Paraíba, vinculada ao Centro de Ciências da Saúde e ao Departamento de Enfermagem Clínica, precisamente no Laboratório de Técnicas de Enfermagem, localizado no município de João Pessoa/PB. Participaram desta pesquisa seis discentes de enfermagem do décimo período, selecionados pelos critérios de inclusão. Os dados foram coletados consecutivamente à aprovação desta pesquisa pelo Comitê de Ética, sob CAAE nº 35391514.3.0000.5188. Para tanto, no que concerne à coleta de dados, a mesma foi realizada no mês de outubro de 2014, sob orientação de um formulário contendo questões pertinentes aos objetivos do estudo, ressalvando que, para o registro dos dados, foi utilizado um sistema de gravação de áudio, previamente esclarecido conforme termo de consentimento. Já a técnica utilizada para este fim foi o grupo focal. A análise dos dados ocorreu mediante a técnica de análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Observou-se que os discentes correlacionam o processo de cuidar com a exposição realizada em sala de aula e como ferramenta possibilitadora de desenvolvimento de suas habilidades motoras, em detrimento de reflexões sobre a essência do cuidar. Dessa forma, não souberam definir precisa e diretamente cuidado de enfermagem espiritual; antes, correlacionaram com espiritualidade e religiosidade. De forma unânime, afirmaram a importância de oferecer aos pacientes um cuidado de enfermagem espiritual, mas, pela imaturidade relacionada à prática clínica, não o fizeram devido a inúmeros procedimentos técnicos a serem realizados, apesar de afirmarem também que a proposta curricular desta instituição favoreceu esta aprendizagem e, por fim, que todas as pessoas cuidadas por eles apresentaram um relacionamento mútuo com o mundo e com Deus. Entretanto, cabe ao enfermeiro exercer e entender a importância do cuidado espiritual, de exercê-lo continuamente por visualizar o paciente de forma indissociável, como ele realmente é, levando em conta sua postura ética e moral firmada em valores que apontam para uma práxis fundamentada no rigor científico, como também no amor e compromisso pelo próximo, distanciando-se diariamente do cuidado mecanicista justificado por argumentos falidos.

Scholarly detectives : police professionalisation via academic educationHallenberg, Katja Marjatta January 2012 (has links)
The thesis explores the role of academic education in police professionalisation. Due to its high complexity, specialisation and status, detective work is well-suited for illustrating these developments and the practical and symbolic benefits they can bring to the police and policing as a whole. The overall approach of thesis is iterative. Literature from police studies and sociology of professions provides the conceptual and theoretical framework for the empirical data of 24 semi-structured interviews conducted with 14 police national training coordinators and local police trainers. The increasing academisation of police training and the formalisation of the police-academia relationships suggest police professionalisation has reached a tipping point. This is seen in the current investigative skills training in England and Wales, which is characterised by growing centralisation, standardisation, and emphasis on formalising the professional knowledgebase of investigations and policing – a trend which the Professionalising Investigation Programme exemplifies. While the police (including the investigative specialism) can be shown to display many of the qualities of professions, it has lacked the level of instructional abstraction characterising other professions, typically provided by higher education and, crucially, leading to externally recognised qualifications. Developing academic police education is not without its challenges, chief among them the perceived epistemological and cultural divide between the ‘two worlds’ of police and academia. A successful transformation requires careful consideration of the content and format of the arrangements, investment, support, acceptance and engagement from police, academia and government, and a simultaneous change to cultural dispositions (habitus) and internal and external structures (field). This is worth the effort as a number of practical and symbolic benefits of police academic education can be identified. It has the potential to improve the quality of service by deepening police knowledge and understanding and facilitating community-oriented approaches. More importantly, academic education bestows a rich cultural capital, strengthens and legitimises police expertise, market monopoly, and status in the eyes of the public, other professions and the government. It enables the survival of the profession, giving it the tools to prevail in conflicts over competence and the right to define and interpret policing and its social context. In summary, police professionalisation via academic education can be explained in terms of agency and structure both; as a deliberate occupational upgrading spurred by social and economic aspirations and aimed to reconceptualise and relegitimise policing; and as an inevitable reaction to wider changes and a deeper ontological shift taking place in the society.

A critical analysis of parental involvement in the education of learners in rural NamibiaHamunyela, Miriam Ndalilashiwa 25 September 2008 (has links)
The role of parents in the education of learners as well as the relationships between and amongst parents and professional educators has long been of interest to researchers and practitioners at all levels of public and private education. The consistent findings that the involvement of parents positively influences educational quality and learners’ academic achievement are well documented. However, the findings also concluded that parental involvement is difficult to implement in rural schools and its practices are more likely to take root in schools that serve urban and suburban populations than in schools that serve rural and low-income populations. Moreover, in most schools where parental involvement is functional, parents are more involved in non-academic activities than academic activities. Against this background, it can be stated that there is insufficient empirical research-based information on whether and how parental involvement in academic education of learners can be practised in economically distressed contexts, especially in Namibia. Therefore, the current study intended to critically analyse whether and how do professional educators and parents of rural lower primary schools in Namibia perceive, think about and practise involvement in the academic education of learners. The framework of this study is based on Critical and Ecological Theories. The Ecological Theory regards both parents and schools as valuable contributors to children’s learning. The critical theory claims that there is no absolute knowledge that people can grasp. All people encounter are opinions. Hence, this study challenged a long held ideal and belief of the capitalist culture in regard to positioning activities, and knowledge and resources of poor families as subordinate. The study employed a mixture of quantitative and qualitative methodological research designs. A survey about professional educators’ perceptions on parental involvement was sent to 205 schools (of which 87 responded) to collect quantitative data for Phase 1 of the study. Frequency analysis was done to identify the meaning of the quantitative data. The analysis of quantitative data grouped schools into 3 groups (high, intermediate and low) according to their levels of practising parental involvement. Six schools (2 per group) were selected for Phase 2 of the study. Interviews were conducted among 18 professional educators and 12 parents of the six schools to collect qualitative data on their perspectives, attitudes and practices of parental involvement. Content analysis was made use of to explore meaningful aspects and indicators of parental involvement in lower primary schools in Ohangwena Region. The following indicators revealed by the professional educators’ and parents’ reported experiences of parental involvement practice qualify the researched schools to be regarded as demonstrating parental involvement in learners’ academic education: conducive climate and respectful relationship; provision of educational opportunities to parents; use of community resources; provision of opportunities for technical support to parents; use of various and possible communication options; power sharing with parents and encouraging them to actively participate in decision-making bodies; and professional educators’ positive attitude towards involvement. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2008. / Curriculum Studies / unrestricted

Barriärer och broar som möter välfärdens nya chefer : En kvalitativ studie om hur kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund upplever vägen till en ledande position / Barriers and bridges that meet the new managers of welfare : A qualitative study of how women with a foreign background experience the path to a leading positionTahiri, Arbenita, Ramadani, Nermina January 2021 (has links)
Denna studie undersöker hur kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund upplever möjligheter och svårigheter på vägen till en ledande position, samt hur kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund utövar sitt ledarskap inom välfärden. Studien analyserar kvalitativa intervjuer med åtta kvinnor på chefsposition i kommunal regi. Intervjupersonerna är födda mellan 1970 - 1980 talet i Europa. Samtliga har genomgått svensk skolgång och har akademisk examen. Resultatet visar på varierande upplevelser av svårigheter och möjligheter de mötts av på vägen, där en framträdande svårighets faktor var bristande socialt kontaktnätverk, och att intervjupersonerna upplevt svårigheter deras utbildning och kompetens inte tillvaratagits som kan ha hämmat deras utveckling och karriärmöjligheter. Intervjupersonernas drivkraft och utbildning tycks ha varit framgångsfaktorer. Det tycks skett en förändring inom ledarskapet där förmåga på tydlig kommunikation och mjuka värden att hantera varierande relationer tycks blivit det nya ledarskapet. / This study examines how women with a foreign background experiences of opportunities and difficulties on the way to a leading position, as well as how women with a foreign background exercise their leadership in welfare. The study analyzes qualitative interviews with eight women in managerial positions under municipal auspices. The interviewees were born between the 1970s and 1980s in Europe. All have completed Swedish schooling and have an academic degree. The results show varying experiences of difficulties and opportunities they encountered along the way, where a prominent difficulty factor was lack of social contact network, and that the interviewees experienced difficulties their education and skills were not utilized that may have hampered their development and career opportunities. The interviewees' drive and education seem to have been success factors. There seems to have been a change in leadership where the ability for clear communication and soft values to handle varying relationships seems to have become the new leadership.

Ell And Non-ell Students' Misconceptions About Heat And Temperature In Middle SchoolWeiss, Leah 01 January 2010 (has links)
All students come to the classroom with their own ideas about a number of science phenomena. In the classroom setting, English language learners may have ideas about heat and temperature that present additional challenges for teachers. In fact, their ideas can stem from many different influences and English language learners (ELL), in particular, may have misconceptions about topics and language barriers, or misconceptions, that are culturally or language-based (Lee, 2001). This action research thesis was performed to explore the research questions: How did my use of formative assessment affect ELL students' misconceptions about heat?, How did my use of formative assessment uncover students' misconceptions about heat? Formative assessments were used in the classroom to uncover students' misconceptions about heat and temperature. The students performed labs based on the formative assessment activity sheets. The students answer before and after questions related to the labs. Data were collected and analyzed to examine changes in ELL students' conceptions of heat and temperature. Data showed that some ELL students changed their ideas about heat and temperature but other misconceptions remained. Time allotted to instruction and alignment of laboratory activities with formative assessments need to be further explored to address changing students' ideas about heat and temperature.
