For that, the research is guided by questions such as: Wich are the continuing education actions that the educators have been experienced? What has the Education Secreteriat done on behalf of this formation? Which aspects may complicate the educators? The Municipal Education Secretariat maintain a Pedagogical Center responsible for the teachers continuing education, which consists of Pedagogical Technical Assitants whom are teachers and coordinators educators. In order to reflect and clarify the continuing education actions to which the educators undergo and/or are submitted, this study uses the statement of six educators whom were interviewed. The study was also guided by official municipal documents, in order to search for evidences which could define the role of the teachers educator, so that they may outline their work and assure the continuing education of the Municipal Education System professionals. The concepts covered in this work are adult learning, continuing education, self-learning and professional knowledges, supported by the theoretical background of Barbier (2013), Freire (1996), Galvani (2002), Marcelo Garcia (1999), Imbernón (2010; 2012; 2015), Josso (1988; 2004), Vaillant and Marcelo Garcia (2012), Nóvoa (2009), Pineau (1988), Placco e Souza (2006) and Vaillant (2012). The data from the interviews were analyzed according to six categories: conception of training, to learn from each other, self-learning, to learn inthe professional practice, to learn from institutional propositions and the formation obstacles. The work was able to determine that the continuing education is much more realized by personal initiative of the own educator that by managment initiatives, and that their learning happens from the interaction winth the peers and trainees, during the reading and the formative activities of which they take part. The institution allow some formative specific actions to its educators which contribute with the learning, but it could do more. The work concludes, in addition, that the teacher and educator’s educator is also a professional that feels lonely performing her or his work and educating other people. There are still a long run towards an in fact teamwork / Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo investigar os processos de formação continuada dos formadores de professores e CPs da Oficina Pedagógica da Rede Municipal de Ensino de Francisco Morato, tendo em vista que os formadores, assim como as demais pessoas, são seres inacabados também em seus exercícios profissionais e, que ao mesmo tempo em que desenvolvem ações de formação de professores, precisam se formar. Para tanto, a pesquisa é guiada por questões como: Quais ações de formação continuada os formadores têm vivenciado? O que a Secretaria de Educação tem feito em prol dessa formação? Quais aspectos dificultam a formação continuada dos formadores? A Secretaria Municipal de Educação mantém um Núcleo Pedagógico responsável pela formação continuada dos professores, composto por Assistentes Técnicos Pedagógicos que são os formadores de professores e coordenadores. Para refletir e explicitar as ações de formação continuada às quais os formadores submetem-se e/ou são submetidos, faz uso de depoimentos de seis formadores entrevistados. O trabalho orientou-se também pelos documentos oficiais municipais, buscando indícios que definissem o papel do formador de professores, a fim de que estes possam delinear seu trabalho e assegurar a formação continuada dos profissionais da Rede Municipal de Ensino. Os conceitos abordados nesse estudo são aprendizagem do adulto, formação continuada, autoformação e saberes profissionais, sustentados pelo referencial teórico de Barbier (2013), Freire (1996), Galvani (2002), Marcelo Garcia (1999), Imbernón (2010; 2012; 2015), Josso (1988; 2004), Vaillant e Marcelo Garcia (2012), Nóvoa (2009), Pineau (1988), Placco e Souza (2006) e Vaillant (2012). Os dados produzidos nas entrevistas foram analisados a partir de seis categorias: concepção de formação, aprender com o outro, aprender sozinho, aprender na profissão, aprender a partir de proposições institucionais e dificultadores à formação. O trabalho permitiu constatar que a formação continuada dos formadores é efetivada muito mais por iniciativas pessoais do próprio formador do que por iniciativas administrativas, e que sua aprendizagem se dá nas interações com os pares e com os formandos, nas leituras e nas atividades formativas das quais participam. A instituição assegura algumas ações pontuais de formação que contribuem com a aprendizagem, mas poderia fazer mais. O trabalho conclui, ainda, que o formador de professores e de formadores também é um profissional que se percebe na solidão ao realizar o seu trabalho e formar outras pessoas. Há muito a se caminhar em direção a um trabalho deveras em equipe

However, few studies and case reports have been published. Progressively during the physician’s professional career, there is possibility of improving his scientific knowledge in a specific field and at a given moment, he is faced with the possibility of becoming a professor, often without adequate pedagogical knowledge to develop such a function, which consequently impacts the quality of the learning process. Objective: To analyze the transition from community physician to a Medical School professor in a university located at northwest of Sao Paulo, as well as assessing the physician’s perceptions and feelings related to the implementation of the course with active methodologies and whether there is a difference between the curricular units. After approval of the Research Ethics Committee, two different samples of medical professors were obtained from two different curricular units from the medical school: Training of Medical Abilities and Attitudes (THAM) and Tutorial Module (MT). Qualitative data was obtained in two different moments and the groups answered a total of four questions. The analysis of the data content was based on Bardin (2011). Conclusion: The perception of how different these performance spaces are was unanimous. They feel able to the professional activity and unable to teaching. The short time for teaching activity caused fear, anguish, anxiety and insecurity, exacerbated by the lack of preparing for that. The skills and learning acquired during the accomplishment of the Professional Masters in Education made the construction of the pedagogical process easier. The teaching activity impacted the life of the medical professional since the moment that it provoked the reflection and changes of behavior in their professional practice / Introdução: A complexidade de tornar-se médico docente em Curso de Graduação em Medicina tem sido motivo de preocupação nas últimas décadas entre profissionais da área. Entretanto, poucos estudos e alguns relatos de experiência têm sido publicados. No decorrer de sua carreira profissional, o médico progressivamente tem a possibilidade de aprimorar seus conhecimentos científicos na sua área de atuação e em determinado momento, deparar-se com a possibilidade de tornar-se docente, muitas vezes sem condições pedagógicas suficientes para desenvolver tal função e, consequentemente, trazer implicações na qualidade que envolve o processo de ensino aprendizagem. Objetivo: Esta pesquisa visa analisar o processo de transição de médico a docente em um centro universitário do noroeste paulista, bem como analisar as percepções e os sentimentos dos docentes a respeito da implantação do curso com metodologias ativas e se há diferença entre as unidades curriculares. A amostra de conveniência foi constituída por docentes médicos de duas unidades curriculares distintas do curso de Medicina: Treinamento de Habilidades e Atitudes Médicas (THAM) e Módulo Tutorial (MT) após aprovação do Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. Utilizou-se a técnica de grupos focais em dois momentos para obtenção dos dados qualitativos. Os grupos responderam a quatro perguntas. A análise dos conteúdos dos dados fundamentou-se em Bardin (2011). Conclusão: Foi unânime a percepção do quão distintos são estes espaços de atuação. Sentem-se preparados para a atividade profissional e despreparados para a docência. O tempo reduzido na docência trouxe sentimentos de medo, angústia, ansiedade e insegurança, exacerbados pela falta de preparo para a docência. As capacitações e o aprendizado adquirido durante a realização do Mestrado Profissional em Educação foram facilitadores no processo de construção pedagógica. A docência trouxe impacto na vida do profissional médico a partir do momento que provocou, nestes docentes, reflexão e mudanças de comportamento na sua prática profissional

Analyzing the cases in the literature of patients with total deafness, which use lip reading, the Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS) and speech to communicate, realize that analysts rely only on oral language to perform the service. Against this movement, this thesis demonstrates the importance of the analysis with the deaf be held in LIBRAS because sign language provides a better expression of their feelings, being more natural to them and behaving every expression of slang, metaphors and jokes, like the portuguese spoken. Field research analyzed interviews with deaf people, interpreters and analysts in São Luís - MA, in different places (schools, clinics, universities, etc.). They evaluated the cases seen by psychoanalysts of deaf patients, revealing the strategies and problems faced by analysts, comparing with the speech of deaf people about their culture, including the importance that is given to LIBRAS. This paper discusses the importance of the training of analysts in LIBRAS and their participation in the deaf culture for the accomplishment of the consultations. It also provides an understanding of LIBRAS as the mother tongue (L1) of the deaf at any time during the development of children, youth and adults / O atendimento psicanalítico pressupõe a interação entre o analista e o paciente através de um canal de comunicação em que o método da associação possa advir. Analisando os casos na literatura especializada de pacientes com surdez total, que utilizam a leitura orofacial, a língua brasileira de sinais (LIBRAS) e a fala para se comunicar, percebemos que os analistas se apóiam somente na linguagem oral para realizar o atendimento. Na contramão deste movimento, esta tese demostra a importância da análise com os surdos ser realizada em LIBRAS, pois a linguagem gestual possibilita uma melhor expressão de seus sentimentos, sendo mais natural para eles e comportando toda expressão de gírias, metáforas e chistes, tal qual o português falado. A pesquisa de campo analisou entrevistas realizadas com surdos, intérpretes e analistas em São Luís – MA, em diferentes locais (escolas, consultórios, universidade, etc.). Avaliaram-se os casos atendidos por psicanalistas de pacientes surdos, revelando as estratégias e as problemáticas enfrentadas pelos analistas, confrontando com o discurso dos surdos sobre a sua cultura, incluindo a importância que é dada a LIBRAS. Este trabalho discute sobre a importância da formação dos analistas em LIBRAS e sua participação na cultura surda para a realização dos atendimentos. Também proporciona o entendimento da LIBRAS enquanto língua materna (L1) dos surdos, em qualquer momento de sua inserção durante o desenvolvimento de crianças, jovens e adultos

This was an exploratory study of some of the relationships between a Community Work and Training Program and the family functioning of certain participants in that program. The CWT projects studied were those operated by the Public Welfare Departments of Clackamas and Marion Counties, Oregon during the three –year span between January 1, 1965 and December 31, 1967. Participants' names were randomly selected from the records of the two welfare offices and the respondents interviewed during the summer of 1968. A questionnaire was developed which consisted of twenty primarily open-ended questions and this was administered to a total of sixty couples. The questions focused on changes in parental, child, financial, marital and social functioning which occurred during the time the husband participated in the work training project. To identify these changes a list was drawn up of fourteen indices of family functioning and these indices were later categorized under two general headings, external and internal to the family. The basic hypothesis was that the CWT Program contributed to positive family functioning. This was expanded into a guiding hypothesis which stated that family functioning is improved through participation in the CWT Program and that this improvement is associated with the program, work itself and the social work services provided by the welfare departments. To determine the validity of these hypotheses a number of null hypotheses were then advanced and tested. The findings of the study were as follows. Internal family functioning was improved during participation on CWT and this improvement affected the total family unit. External functioning, however, deteriorated and this was attributed to the reduced income resulting from the families’ dependence for support upon Public Welfare. The improved internal functioning was associated with the social work services provided and with the work itself. This improvement was evident despite the reported failure of the program to meet the two most important expectations of the participants, namely material benefits and vocational training. The most important limitations noted in the research were two. The first was the lapse of time which occurred between the interviews and the period when many of the participants actually worked on the program. Inevitably, such lapse of time had some effect on respondents’ recall. Second in importance in considering the possible application of the findings was the fact that some 15.58% of the respondents from Marion County were Spanish-Americans. This minority group would conceivably not be representative of another area. Among the program’s negative features mentioned by participants was the lack of choice available in job assignment and the inadequate compensation for performance on the job. Despite these, however, the overall conclusion reached by the research group was that participants in the CWT projects saw the program as beneficial in helping to maintain family life.

This thesis is an exploratory study of the effects of two job training programs for the poor in Portland, Oregon. It seeks to illustrate that training programs are designed around certain theoretical conceptions or models of poverty and that these theoretical conceptions ultimately have a strong effect on the enrollees in programs designed on the given theoretical model. Two general theoretical models have been extracted from the literature. The first is the "Culture of Poverty" model and the second may be called the "Closed Opportunity Structure" model. The culture of poverty model posits that the poor are unable to escape poverty because of certain cultural aspects of their conditions which inhibit them from taking advantage of increased opportunities when they are offered them. Some of the major aspects of the culture of poverty are: (1) The poor do not share the values of the dominant culture, e.g., that hard work brings rewards, and deferring immediate gratification also produces future rewards; (2) The poor do not participate fully in the major institutions of the society; (3) The inability to take advantage of increased opportunities is learned through the parents; and (4) This inability tends to perpetuate the culture of poverty. The closed opportunity model, on the other hand, posits that the poor do indeed share the values of the dominant culture but that they have been denied the opportunity to realize these values, i.e., the poor do not defer gratification because even if they did so their chances of receiving a future reward are low. The closed opportunity structure model sees the problems of the poor as being grounded in the larger society as opposed to being inherent deficiencies of the poor themselves. I have selected two programs for this study on the basis of their subscription to one or the other theoretical models discussed above. Portland Residential Manpower Center (PRMC), an urban Job Corps camp, was chosen because its program design conforms to the culture of poverty model in that it attempts to resocialize the trainee so that he may better fit into the society; conversely, the Portland New Careers Project was chosen because it subscribed to the closed opportunity model in that it does not see these socialization attempts as necessary, but rather, it places its trainees in social service positions with various governmental agencies and provides them with education which, hopefully, will enable the trainee to move into a more professional position at the agency. The study then attempts to describe the effects of each of these programs on its enrollees. The method of direct observation was chosen for several reasons: (1) The exploratory nature of the study; (2) The absence of a clear cut hypothesis to test; (3) inadequate statistical data available which would give me answers to the kinds of questions I had asked. The findings indicated that the two programs had very different effects on the enrollees. PRMC, because of its highly structured character and complete program of socialization, produced a high degree of distrust of the program on the part of the trainees. PRMC's socialization attempts were seen as largely unnecessary by the trainees and they felt that these attempts interfered with the primary task of skill training. New Careers, on the other hand, lacks a highly structured program. Aside from being expected to put in time at the placement agency and to attend his classes, the trainee is left largely on his own. This almost complete lack of structure has made it exceedingly difficult for many of the trainees to progress in the program because they have few guidelines for their training. The New Careerist learns what is expected of him through trial and error. The findings of this study suggest that social scientists should be aware of the consequences of their theoretical models on the people these models attempt to deal with. Both programs studies exhibited deficiencies which, in varying degrees, are the result of the theoretical models upon which the program is based.

This inquiry explored the everyday struggles of several women who worked as coordinators and instructors in three government-funded job-entry programs for women in the non-profit sector. The programs studied included an entry program for native women, a program which trained immigrant women in bookkeeping skills, and a program which trained women on social assistance to enter the construction trades. The work of the staff in these programs was considered in light of a theoretical framework developed by Nancy Fraser. Fraser has called for a different approach -- a more critical discourse-oriented inquiry -- to the study of social-welfare policies and programs. This approach focuses on the political struggle over the interpretation of needs, particularly women's needs, which she sees as central to social-welfare policy-making. In her study of the American system, she has found that "needs talk" is the medium through which inequalities are symbolically elaborated and challenged. She also has found that needs talk is stratified and differentiated by unequal status, power, and access to resources, and organized along lines of class, gender, race, ethnicity and age. For this study, information was collected through interviews with the staff in the three programs, observations of life skills classes, and examination of program proposals. Government and government-related documents were also examined. The analysis revealed that, in the official policy documents at the national level, women’s needs were interpreted within a dominant policy framework which focused on reducing spending, matching workers to the market and privatizing training programs. Programs for women were developed based upon a "thin” understanding of women's needs -- one which focused on women’s lack of training and job experience and ignored the structural inequalities of the labour market and women’s different racial and class struggles. At the local level, analysis of the interviews, observations and documents indicated that the staff struggled to respond to the trainees' diverse and complex needs which the official policy discourse addressed in only a limited way. In their negotiations with the state, the staff employed a plurality of needs discourses, engaging in a process which both challenged and reproduced the dominant policy orientation toward getting women "jobs, any jobs”. There were moments of resistance by the staff to the dominant policy orientation, most notably in the program for native women. The trainees also challenged the narrow interpretation of women's needs, particularly in the program training women to enter the construction trades. Generally speaking, the analysis indicated that the staff played a crucial role in mediating between women and the state and in producing a kind of discourse which tended to construct the trainees as subjects needing to be "fixed". The analysis also revealed that the relationships between staff, trainees and the state were organized around unequal access to resources based on gender, race and class. In order to transcend the limitations outlined in this study, efforts are required to democratize decision-making, collectively organize the non-profit private sector, challenge privatization and the exploitive practices of the state, and bring alternative approaches which support participatory and dialogical processes of need interpretation. The analysis brings to light the importance of studying the implications of state policies on adult education practice, particularly policies which promote privatization. It also reveals the explanatory power of a feminist theoretical framework which provides a more critical, discourse-oriented approach to examining policy and practice, and the usefulness of this framework for further research and political advocacy.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate empirically the effectiveness of the new online career workshop titled "Ex-Scape" based on career knowledge and skill outcomes. Although numerous studies have been conducted on distance education classes in various disciplines, little research was found on the effectiveness of web-based learning in career development courses. Quantitative methods were used to determine a numerical score. Pre- and posttests were calculated and recorded in SPSS 11.5 and paired t-tests determined whether or not there was significant difference in the scores between the pre- and posttests. Qualitative methods were used through course evaluations and focus groups to record student comments of their experience with the online course. Results revealed that the online method of instruction was effective based on career knowledge and skill outcomes. Recommendations for further research include continuation of future research on the outcome success of online career development courses; utilization of a broader approach to research to include variables such as students' preferred learning styles, motivational factors, cost factors, and students' computer expertise; and collection and critique of post-resumes to follow up on students' impressions of their skills. / xi, 108 leaves ; 28 cm.
