La valoración del capital humano contrasta la manera habitual de evaluar el rendimiento de las personas en las organizaciones, tomando en cuenta las diversas opiniones de los autores que han realizado estudios referentes al tema. Por ello, se propone un mínimo de criterios, generalmente aceptados, para calificar al capital humano a nivel corporativo según las necesidades de información requeridas por las empresas. De esta manera, se pretende generar una ventaja competitiva en un contexto altamente dinámico que, en la actualidad, prioriza el conocimiento y habilidades blandas, sustentándolas a través de indicadores que permitan tomar las mejores decisiones de gestión. Este estudio contiene una amplia investigación que analiza los factores más importantes que repercuten en el desempeño de las personas dentro de las organizaciones. Se estableció seis criterios que sirvieron como guía del desarrollo de este trabajo, tomando en cuenta que el entorno laboral es muy competitivo y requiere que las empresas revisen permanentemente sus procesos mediante el desarrollo de metodologías adecuadas, favoreciendo la capacidad creativa de las personas y, en consecuencia, su aprendizaje. La literatura indica que no hay un acuerdo universal para determinar los factores que evalúen íntegramente la capacidad productiva de las personas, es decir, existen diversas propuestas para medir el capital humano según el sector del mercado en el que compite la organización, por lo que no es posible calificar la gestión del capital humano con un solo criterio. En términos generales, esta investigación está orientada a buscar aquellos aspectos en común que conlleven a evaluar de manera unánime el rendimiento humano, ya que permite identificar a aquellos colaboradores que poseen un alto potencial como próximos generadores de valor, independientemente de la organización en la que se encuentren. Asimismo, estas cualidades pueden potenciarse permanentemente a través de capacitaciones que incluyan diversos programas formativos con la finalidad de contar con un personal debidamente calificado. / The valuation of human capital is based on the usual way of evaluating the performance of people in organizations. Therefore, a minimum of criteria, generally accepted, is proposed to qualify human capital at corporate level according to the information needs required by companies. In this way, it is intended to generate a competitive advantage in a highly dynamic context that, at present, prioritizes knowledge and soft skills, supporting them through indicators that respond to the best management decisions. This study contains an extensive research that analyzes the most important factors that affect the performance of people within organizations. Six criteria were established that served as a guide for the development of this work, taking into account that the work environment is very competitive and requires companies to permanently review their processes through the development of appropriate methodologies, favoring the creative capacity of people and, consequently, their learning. The literature indicates that there is no universal agreement to determine the factors that are fully evaluated the production capacity of people, that is, there are many possibilities to measure human capital according to the sector of the market in which the organization competes, so that it is not possible to qualify the management of human capital with only one criterion. In general terms, this research is oriented to look for those aspects in common that lead to universally evaluate the performance of human resources, since it allows to identify those collaborators with high potential that will be generators of value, independently of their organizations. Also, these qualities can be permanently enhanced through skills that include various training programs in order to have a qualified staff. / Trabajo de Suficiencia Profesional

The diploma thesis is about the current problem of the lack of nurses, in particular general, children and practical nurses in the environment of the Czech health care. In the introduction of the theoretical part, there is an overall view of the current lack of workers in these professions and the consequences that this deficit brings to the Czech hospitals. Furthermore, the theoretical part is about several topics that are generally identified as causes of the lack of interest in this profession due to the lack of nurses. These are especially the issues of education of nurses, salaries and also the prestige of a nurse's profession. The area of competence in nursing professions is elaborated as a supplement chapter, to the overall view of current issues. The empirical part includes eleven interviews with nurses in senior positions (ward and head nurses in hospitals), the topics of which are processed in the theoretical part. The interviews were processed as thematic analysis with the help of open coding. Particularly, data obtained from a discussion group of nurses on social networks was used to illustrate the situation. The final part of the thesis contains the evaluation of the interviews, the answers to the research questions, the comparison of the opinions of the respondents with the publicly...

The rapid development of the intensive care medicine with a large amount of highly specific information requires sufficiently educated nurses in the field. A nurse anesthetist is a nurse working in intensive care with a focus on anesthesiology. She provides highly specialized nursing care to patients during the course of general or local anesthesia. The work is divided into two parts, a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part focuses on the development of anesthesiology and intensive care medicine. It also focuses on the education of nurses. The education of nurses is summarised from historical beginnings to the present time. This part also includes new requirements for the education of non-medical medical staff and the current supporting legislation. Higher education for intensive care is also mentioned. The next chapter of the theoretical part focuses on the competencies of nurses in anesthesiology and intensive care medicine. The practical part includes interviews with six nurses. Three interviews were conducted with nurses that witnessed the beginnings of the field of anesthesiology as we know it nowadays. The method of qualitative research, study of documents, analysis of primary archival sources of the Ministry of Health, NLK, ÚVN, legislation, periodicals, professional...

During the last decades, a shifting paradigm has occurred in the classroom in connection to the technological evolution. Due to digitalization a student in Sweden can discuss with a counterpart on the other side of the globe. The aim of this study is to examine how the role of telecollaboration has been researched in a primary school context. The study will include several methods that could benefit the use of virtual exchange projects. This investigation will briefly explain the terminology and history behind telecollaboration and how it can be used in a modern classroom environment. An explanation on how the findings have been explored will be included in the methodology component. Thereafter, the study will present the research from the chosen articles connected to the aim and research question. The presented research will further be compared and connected to each other. In the following component, the data found will be connected back to the theoretical hypothesis mentioned in the introduction as well as the Swedish syllabus for English education in the primary school. The implications from investigating this subject were due to the lack of thoroughly conducted research on younger participants, the outcome rendered inadequate. An evidence on the insufficiency was that hardly any prior investigations used control groups to validate their findings.

The subject of this thesis is teacher-parent communication and cooperation with school management within this communication. The research took place in two Prague schools, high school and grammar school. Qualitative methods were applied for the analysis. Data were acquired via in-depth interviews with six teachers and two school psychologists. The main goal of the empirical research was to map how teachers perceive communication with parents and assess cooperation with school management in this communication. The results of the analysis suggest that there are many similar elements in teacher-parent communication. The communication usually takes place during formal class meetings with parents and via group e- mails. In case of problems teachers contact parents by phone or meet them individually in person. The variability in the category content of one teacher and in the frequency profile of the other teacher seems to be closely related to the risks associated with communication. One of the risks is crossing the boundaries of school competence by parents. In the latter case, there was a vague delineation of boundaries and the confluence of school and family competences.

Identifying hidden costs of the process helped the company to adapt its competence development and managerial practices.

Syftet med denna studie har varit att bidra med information om hur en mindre grupp gymnasister anser att distansundervisning har innehållit meningsfulla undervisningsmoment, som sin tur har gynnat deras möjligheter för kunskap- och färdighetsutveckling. Därtill har studien försökt avgöra om enkätens resultat kan antyda till att samma gymnasister har tagit del av gynnsam förmedling av medborgarkompetenser som anses viktiga för möjligheten till aktivt samhällsdeltagande. För att undersöka detta har studien genomfört en enkätundersökning med 147 gymnasister, varav samtliga har studerat samhällskunskap genom distansundervisning under perioden mars 2020 till april 2021. Enkätundersökningens resultat har därefter analyserats genom studiens analytiska verktyg, som i sin tur har hjälp att besvara studiens frågeställningar Resultaten visar att en majoritet av respondenterna kan ha tagit del av undervisningsaspekter som antyder till meningsfull undervisning, medan en tydlig minoritet anser motsatsen. Dock visar resultatet även på motsägande aspekter, exempelvis att distansundervisning även har bidragit till ett ökat fokus på att nå kunskapskrav istället för utvecklandet av kunskaper och färdigheter. Resultaten visar även att en majoritet av elever antyder till att de har tagit del av kunskaps- och färdighetsutvecklande undervisning som kan bidra till utvecklandet av medborgarkompetenser. Resultatet bidrar dessutom med uppfattningen om att distansundervisning i ämnet samhällskunskap har haft varierande framgångar i förmedlandet av medborgarkompetenser som kan kopplas till utvecklandet av intresse- och ökat engagemang för politiska- och samhällsrelaterade frågor. / The purpose of this study has been to contribute information about how a small group of upper secondary school students consider that distance education has included meaningful teaching moments, which in turn have favoured their opportunities for knowledge and skill development. In addition, the study has tried to determine whether the survey’s results can imply that the same students have taken part of favourable intermediation of civic competences which are considered important for the possibility of active participation in society. To investigate this, the study has conducted a survey with 147 upper secondary school students, of which all have studied social studies through distance education during the period of March 2020 to April 2021. The results of the study where then analysed through this study´s analytical instrument, which in turn has aided answering this study’s research questions.  The results show that a majority of the respondents may have taken part of teaching aspects that implies to meaningful education, while a minority consider the opposite. However, the results also show contradictory aspects, for example that distance education also has contributed to an increased focus on reaching knowledge requirements instead of the development of knowledge and skills. The results also show that a majority of students imply that they have taken part of knowledge and skills developing education that can contribute to the development of civic competences. Additionally, the results also contribute to the notion that distance education in the subject of social studies has had varying degrees of success concerning mediation of civic competences which can be connected to the development of interest and increased commitment in political and societal issues.
