Sánchez López, Cristina 06 October 2006 (has links)
El objetivo del estudio es analizar la configuración cognitivo-emocional de los alumnos superdotados; y ofrecer pautas de respuesta educativa según el perfil cognitivo. Los participantes han sido 187 alumnos (edades 5 a 12 años). Los instrumentos utilizados han sido: escala de de nominación profesores; Test Aptitudes Generales y Diferenciales (Yuste y otros, 2001); Test de Pensamiento Creativo (Torrance, 1974); el Early School Personality Questionnaire y el Children's Personality Questionnaire (Porter y Cattell 1990); Test Autoevaluativo Multifactorial de Adaptación Infantil (Hernández y Hernández, 2002); y la Batería de Socialización (Silva y Martorell, 1989). Los resultados indican que son 162 quienes manifiestan alta habilidad según la tipología propuesta por Castelló y Batlle (1998).Los datos indican, por un lado, que los superdotados tienen un perfil de personalidad configurado con puntuaciones promedio; por otro, no manifiestan problemas de adaptación y tanto los padres como los profesores perciben una óptima socialización de estos alumnos. / guidelines for a suitable educational response according to the pupil's cognitive profile. 187 pupils from 5 to 12 years of age took part on this study.The used instruments were: a teacher's nomination scale, an IQ test (Batería de Aptitudes Generales y Diferenciales, BADyG, Yuste et. al 2001), Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (Torrance, 1974), Early School Personality Questionnaire y el Children's Personality Questionnaire (Porter y Cattell 1990); self reported Multifactor Adaptation Test (Hernández y Hernández, 2002); and Socialization Battery (Silva y Martorell, 1989). The results show that according to the Battle and Castelló model (1998), 182 participants of 162 were identified as gifted or talented pupils. The data show, on one hand, that gifted students present personality factors scores within the average and, on the other hand, they do not show maladjustment problems as both parents and teachers perceive they (gifted pupils) have optimal levels of socialization.

中央研究院特殊優秀人才獎勵金制度之研究:組織公平知覺觀點 / The Implementation of the Recruitment and Retention Bonus for Outstanding Research Fellows in Academia Sinica: An Organizational Justice Perspective

洪婉婷, Hong, WanTing Unknown Date (has links)
本研究係探究中央研究院執行科技部補助獎勵特殊優秀人才獎勵金之情形,研究主軸有三,分別是(一)瞭解個案研究機構執行該獎勵計劃之方式、(二)檢視研究人員對於任職單位執行該獎勵計劃的分配公平及程序公平知覺,(三)探究研究人員對於獎勵計劃實施成效之看法。透過問卷調查法及深度訪談法進行,回收問卷有效樣本201份,深度訪談9位人員。 研究結果發現,多數單位透過行政人員主動將申請科技部獎勵計畫之資訊,超過七成以上受試者對任職單位採用審查方式有所瞭解。評核標準方面認同以學術研究研究成果為主要考量因素,多採取密件或口頭通知獲獎人員,且獲得獎勵金者在接收獎勵申請訊息較充足。在分配公平及程序公平認知方面,多數認同獲獎者按照個人研究的績效差異,獲得不同的獎勵分配,普遍不認同獎金採平均分配;高達九成以上受試者認同審核成員或委員會決定獎勵名單,避免對任何人有偏見,且多數認同應秉持「公正性」、「客觀性」做出「正確性」的獎勵名單。實施成效上認同應有充分穩定的經費來源,且獎勵金達到單位內留才功能大於外部攬才之功能。 在現行待遇制度無法調整下,運用彈性薪資方式,額外給與特殊優秀的研究人才非法定的獎勵金,對人才延攬及留任方式有所助益,本研究建議行政院其他給與項目法制化作業的過程應採取積極開放的態度;組織內部管理面,建議邀集同仁參與討論,訂定符合公平及公正之獎勵執行規定,採取委員會方式審查獎勵名單並公布受獎名單,並可思考規劃訂定明確的實質分配法則,使各獲獎人員間之獎勵額度應有差異性,且研究績效良好程度與獎勵額度成正比關係,以有效地激勵員工。 / This study focuses on the execution of fellowships provided by Ministry of Science and Technology for for outstanding talents. The purposes of this study are: 1. How the fellowships are distributed; 2. The perceptions of distributive and procedural justice of research fellows from different institutes; 3. Opinions of research fellows for the effectiveness of the fellowships. The study is conducted through questionnaires with 201 effective samples, and interviews with 9 fellows. This study indicates that most of the institutes actively notify their fellows about the fellowships. More than 70 percents of experimental subjects know the way of distribution, while senior fellows know more well. The examinees recognize using research achievement as a major measure for distribution. Most of the fellows receiving fellowships are notified by classified or oral notices, and more informed about the fellowships. In perceptions of distributive and procedural justice, most examinees prefer distributing fellowships by research achievement of each individual rather than uniformly, and also agree with establishing a distribution committee to avoid prejudices. In addition, many of experimental subjects suggest that the fellowships should be stable and long-term, while thinking the money contributes more to staying instead of recruiting elites. Under current statutory and fixed salary structure, additional and flexible bonus contributes to staying and recruiting talents. We suggest that Administrative Yuan should be more open and aggressive when regulating and adjusting salary structure. For Academia Sinica, the fellowships should be always distributed by corresponding committees in a fair and differentiated manner which are fully and publicly discussed. The amount of fellowship should also be proportional to individual's research achievement to effectively drive employees.

探討大學實驗室之持續創新 / How do the university laboratories conduct persistent creation and innovation?

戴君玲, Tai,Chun-Ling Unknown Date (has links)
大學,一向被視為知識的殿堂;大學裡的實驗室,更是激盪新概念、產生新知識的重要場域。因此,大學實驗室可說是知識殿堂裡的智慧泉源;新的知識,不論是對於基礎科學的貢獻,或是應用技術的開發,都可以不斷地在那裡被製造出來。 為了明瞭大學實驗室裡持續創新的樣貌,特別是經過多代傳承、創新成果仍如湧泉般不斷出現的實驗室,本研究針對已在科學界屹立不搖一百三十三年的卡文迪什實驗室與八十三年的台大藥理學教室,進行分析後發現:維持優良的傳統與學風、仔細選擇研究領域並用心地開拓與經營、選擇優秀人才並加以培育,是他們得以歷經艱困草創期、成長期與轉型期,經過多代的傳承,仍在不同研究時期或領域都能獨領風騷的三項重要因素。 「傳統與學風」所保存的是實驗室的核心價值觀;這些核心價值是用以支持創新的土壤。「研究領域的開拓與經營」則須掌握大環境的變化,選擇適合發展的領域,並依據手中的資源擬定經營策略;這樣做即可保持身段的柔軟、不斷刺激進步。「人才的選擇與培育」則提供了足量的優質人力,可以執行創造的工作。 / Universities are considered as the knowledge palace while the laboratories therein are the most important places where surging the new concepts and producing knowledge. Therefore, the university laboratories become the wellspring of knowledge. Both basic and applied researches produced therein will contribute to the domain knowledge. In order to realize why some university laboratories can conduct persistent creation and innovation, two cases which have long history during several generations were analyzed; one is the Cavendish Laboratory of Cambridge University, U.K. and another one is the Pharmacology Laboratory of National Taiwan University, College of Medicine. Both laboratories are considered as the outstanding ones with very good performance in frontier researches. Moreover, many great scientists including Nobel Prize Laureates and Academicians were educated and trained in these laboratories. Most important of all, each generation of these laboratories kept producing creative and innovative accomplishments as well as the long-lived companies do in the business world. The main findings of this research are: 1. retaining the excellent traditions and academic atmosphere; 2. choosing research area carefully and managing it attentively; 3. selecting outstanding talents and educating them, are the key success factors to foster the university laboratories toward incessant innovation. First of all, the traditions and academic atmosphere they preserved are considered to be the core values which cultivate the emerging of creation as well as innovation. Moreover, these long-lived laboratories devoted themselves to the research areas which had been chosen very carefully based on the macro-environment and resources they had in hands. By doing so, they can keep on going forwards. Nevertheless, a lot of talents are necessary for implementing researches in these laboratories. After all, great creation or innovation could not come true without the elite.

La "GRH comme pratique" : la mise en place d'un graduate programme dans une banque de financement et d'investissement française / « HRM as practice » : the implementation of a graduate programme in a french corporate and investment bank

Gonzalo Martinez, Pedro 15 September 2014 (has links)
Dans un contexte de concurrence exacerbée pour les meilleurs jeunes diplômés du marché, les Graduate Programmes (GP) s’imposent progressivement au niveau international comme le modèle de référence dans la gestion de ces populations. Or, ces programmes de recrutement, d'intégration, de formation et de développement semblent négligés par la recherche en sciences de gestion. Pour combler cette lacune, nous mobilisons dans cette thèse le courant de la Stratégie comme Pratique (SCP) afin d’explorer en détail la dynamique de mise en place d’un tel programme dans une banque de financement de d’investissement française.Plus concrètement, nous étudions le contexte d’émergence de ce programme et les praxis et activités quotidiennes entreprises par les praticiens RH pour élaborer et déployer ces dispositifs. Nous explorons de même les pratiques qui constituent un GP du point de vue de la SCP et les apports, limites et conditions propices à un tel programme. Ce faisant, nous dressons un portrait approfondi d’un concept incontournable dans la gestion contemporaine des jeunes diplômés. Plus généralement, nous revendiquons l'intérêt d'accorder une place centrale à la SCP dans la compréhension de l’activité RH des organisations. / In the current context of extreme competition for the best young Graduates available on the market, Graduate Programmes (GP) are becoming the model of reference in the management of this population at an international level. However, these recruitment, integration, training and development programmes seem overlooked by management research. We mobilize here the strategy-as-practice (SAP) approach to explore in detail the dynamics of implementation of such a programme in a French corporate and investment bank.More concretely, we study the context of emergence of this programme and the day-to-day praxis and activities of HR practitioners in the design and implementation of this programme. We also explore the practices that constitute a GP from the SAP perspective and the benefits, limits and suitable conditions for such a programme. Doing that, we propose a sound portrayal of a key concept in Graduate management nowadays. We therefore claim the importance to be given to SAP in the study of corporate HR activities in the coming years.

兩岸經貿交流提升與台灣科技人才: 機會與衝擊 / The Rising Cross-Taiwan Strait Economic Exchange and Taiwan’s Science & Technology Talents: Opportunity and Challenge

黃佳琳, Huang, Jialing Unknown Date (has links)
全球化趨勢帶動兩岸經貿交流互動,中國大陸從世界工廠成為世界市場,外資紛紛轉往中國大陸投資設廠。然而,因為台灣與中國大陸擁有相同語言及文化背景,也使得台灣企業及科技人才比其它企業擁有更多的優勢及機會。台灣企業大舉投資中國大陸並在中國設立生產基地,台灣科技人才必需扮演中間溝通、技術移轉的角色。而台灣科技人才也將面臨因此現況帶來的機會與挑戰。作者將提出經濟全球化與全球及對兩岸的影響、台灣企業投資大陸設廠及台灣科技人才到中國大陸工作的原因;並透過深度訪談了解台灣科技人才的想法及意見及提出在就業上的建議給台灣科技人才及台灣企業人力資源管理政策上的建議以留住人才、減少因產業外移中國大陸而造成人才流失。 / Globalization helps cross-strait economic exchange. China is transitioning from just being a “world-factory” to also being a “world-market.” Foreign investments have been flowing into China; foreign companies set up branches and factories in China. When Taiwanese enterprises move their production lines to China, Taiwanese S&T talent needs to play roles in communications, training and skill transfers. Taiwanese investors and companies, however, have the advantage over their global competitors of sharing the same language and culture with China, which affords Taiwanese enterprises and talent (skilled workers) more opportunities than other countries. At the same time, there are some challenges that Taiwanese science and technology talent needs to face. The author will first describe the patterns of economic globalization in the world, especially between Taiwan and China. The author will then present some of the reasons that Taiwanese enterprises invest in China engage in science and technology work in China. The author will supplement the trend analysis with details from in-depth interviews with some Taiwanese industry S&T workers to propose suggestions to Taiwanese professionals, to human resource management and for trans-national labor policy -- with a particular eye towards retention of talent and know-how and to avoid “brain-drain”.

TechnillionJobs : A digital platform for unemployed graduates / TechnillionJobs : En digital plattform för arbetslösa akademiker

Amer Al-Taie, Ziad January 2021 (has links)
TechnillionJobs is a solution consists of a digital web application, mobile App and a start-up. The solution is intended for helping unemployed Iraqi graduates & students at the final stages of their university studies network with employers locally and internationally. TechnillionJobs can give a bigger opportunity to easier find jobs/build a professional career, and therefore can be a contributing solution in reducing unemployment among graduates in Iraq. The purpose of the project is mainly to investigate and identify the reasons behind unemployment amongst Iraqi graduates as well as present a solution to reduce this problem and its negative effects. Also, to explore potential target groups, their needs and requirements for the product. The primary target groups were categorized as unemployed Iraqi graduates who can provide their knowledge and skills online, innovative companies who put a huge emphasis on their R&D department and educational companies that provide online courses & lesson plans. Primarily, the project group wanted to develop a concept that would respond to the problem statement by “only” launching a web application which in later development phases expanded to even a mobile App and start-up to provide real time services and offer On-demand Contracts (Explained in The Final Product section of this report) as well. In order to do a solid research in the problem area and come up with possible solutions and perform analysis, different scientific frameworks, methodologies and project tools such as Design Thinking, Agile methodology, Gantt-chart, Surveys and mini-risk calculation were used to make sure that the project execution follows a scientific structure. An overall timeline from the start of the project to the end is presented as well. The group has carried out this project in an iterative way where the user has always been in focus during a long dynamic development process. The opportunities for further development are many and, in the future, the product will be a more complete tool for connecting graduates with employers. Future business plans and goals are clarified in the Discussion section of this report. / TechnillionJobs är en lösning som består av en digital webbapplikation, mobil App och ett start-up. Lösningen hjälper arbetslösa irakiska akademiker och studenter i slutskedet av sina universitets-/högskolestudier knyta kontakter med arbetsgivare lokalt och internationellt. Detta kan ge en större möjlighet till att enklare hitta jobb/ bygga en yrkeskarriär, och kan därför vara en bidragande lösning för att minska arbetslösheten bland akademiker i Irak.  Syftet med projektet är främst att undersöka och identifiera orsakerna bakom arbetslöshet bland irakiska akademiker samt att presentera en lösning för att minska detta problem och dess negativa effekter. Också, att utforska potentiella målgrupper, deras behov och krav på produkten. De primära målgrupperna kategoriserades som arbetslösa irakiska akademiker som kan förse med sina kunskaper och färdigheter online, innovativa företag som lägger stor vikt på sina FoU-avdelningar och utbildningsföretag som tillhandahåller onlinekurser och lektionsplaner. Projektgruppen ville främst utveckla ett koncept som skulle svara på problemformuleringen genom att "endast" bygga en webbapplikation som i senare utvecklingsfaser utvidgades till även en mobil App och ett start-up för att tillhandahålla tjänster i realtid och erbjuda On-demand kontrakt (förklaras under rubriken The Final Product i denna rapport).  För att göra en gedigen forskning inom problemområdet och komma på möjliga lösningar och utföra analyser, användes olika vetenskapliga metoder och projektverktyg som Design Thinking, Agil produktutveckling, Gantt-schema, enkäter och mini-risk-beräkning för att se till att projekt genomförandet följer en vetenskaplig struktur. En övergripande tidslinje från projektets början till slutet presenteras också. Gruppen har genomfört detta projekt på ett iterativt sätt där användaren alltid har varit i fokus under en lång dynamisk utvecklingsprocess. Möjligheterna för vidareutveckling är många och i framtiden tänkas produkten att bli ett mer komplett verktyg för att länka akademiker med arbetsgivare. Framtida affärsplaner och mål klargörs i Discussion avsnittet i denna rapport.

Character Narrators, the Implied Author, and the Authorial Audience: A Rhetorical and Ethical Reading of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Talents

Melkner Moser, Linda January 2020 (has links)
This essay considers the interplay between character narrators, the implied author, and the authorial audience in Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Talents. The aim of the study was to investigate how narrators, the implied author, and readers position themselves in relation to each other and in relation to the novel’s ethical dimensions. The theoretical framework is based on James Phelan’s theories on the rhetorical and ethical aspects of fiction. The essay argues that the implied author’s communication to the authorial audience is one of the reasons that the novel, like its prequel Parable of the Sower, often succeeds to function as warnings to the audience of dangers ahead. This is especially true regarding one of the implied author’s most consistent messages to the audience throughout the Parable novels: every choice has consequences, and those consequences need to be considered when we decide how to act and react in different circumstances, both as individuals and as a society.
