Ao tomar como referência construtos teóricos na área da avaliação e da formação pedagógica, propostos a partir de 1980, o recorte investigado prioriza o agir avaliativo em sala de aula, no que se refere à formação teórica dos componentes do grupo e às práticas da Avaliação Formativa. Metodologicamente, caracteriza-se como investigação qualitativa, na modalidade da pesquisa-ação, razão pela qual acolhe o relato de interferências compartilhadas pela pesquisadora e pelo grupo, na busca de soluções para a melhoria do processo avaliativo no segmento de ensino estudado. A investigação é um desdobramento da pesquisa de mestrado, na qual, os dados, obtidos através de entrevistas, ao serem analisados, apontaram controvérsias e convergências entre o discurso e as práticas dos professores, fato que indicou a pertinência de se realizar uma intervenção. Como decorrência dos dados obtidos na pesquisa precedente acresceram-se outros, obtidos na fase de realização da presente pesquisa e provenientes da observação em sala de aula e da análise de documentos, dos quais foram retirados, para estudo, extratos relevantes, concebidos como totalidades parciais da teoria e da prática. Submetidos à análise, esse conjunto de dados evidenciou representações heterogêneas da realidade, que se constituem em uma rede de significados, na qual se destacam as resistências, as incongruências entre o discurso e a prática, e as representações de situações, marcadas ora pela reprodução ora pela construção de novos caminhos. / This research focus on a school day-by-day life of a group formed by nineteen teachers, in a private elementary school level II, from 2004 to 2006. The observed clipping searches for the classroom evaluation act, which refers to the theoretical formation of the group members and their practices related to Formative Evaluation, taken as reference from theoretical constructs in evaluation and pedagogical formation that were proposed since 1980. Methodologically, the study is inserted in the field of qualitative research, action research model, reason why it accepts reports of interferences shared between the researcher and the group members, aiming to reach improvement of the evaluation process in the focused learning segment. This investigation is the development of master degree research, were the data gathered through interviews, when analyzed, have pointed to controversies and congruencies inside the teachers discourse and practices. This fact justified the relevance of having an intervention. To the previous data gathered in the former research fresh ones were added. They were obtained during the current research and also from classroom observation and document analysis. From them relevant extracts were taken to a deeper study, because they were conceived as theory partial totality and practice. Submitted to analysis, this set of data showed the heterogeneity of reality representation, which builds a meaning network, where resistances pop up, incongruence between discourse and practice and the representation of situations which are sometimes characterized by reproduction and sometimes by new ways.

Triage assessment of patients on arrival at the emergency unit is an essential function in quality emergency care provision. Triage is the process of sorting and prioritising patients according to their level of acuity. This study was performed within an emergency unit that experienced serious problems with the sorting of patients on their arrival. After implementation of the Cape Triage Score, a questionnaire was distributed amongst staff utilising the new triage system. The investigation sought to answer specific questions concerning the triage nurse's roles, competencies required and strengths and weaknesses of the implemented system. The study also suggests guidelines to improve the triage system within the unit. The triage system was received well by participants. The roles of the triage nurse are multifaceted and extensive competencies are required. The strengths of the implemented triage system outweighed the weaknesses as perceived by the respondents. Guidelines for implementing triage in emergency units are provided. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)
