The sorts of exercises covered in this study are centered in grammar, which is included in language conception, and in team work. The educational context comprised is based on the São Paulo State Modern Foreign Language Curriculum, English, (SÃO PAULO, 2010), with the addition of the Student Book (SÃO PAULO, 2009a) and the Teacher Book (SÃO PAULO, 2009b). The theoretical axis is mainly based in Vigotski (1934/1991; 1934/2008) and his Social- Historical-Cultural vision. It is complemented with Koch (2003), Travaglia (1995/2005), Larsen-Freeman (2003) and Celce-Murcia (2008) for language and grammar concerns and Magalhães (2009) for team work concern. Methodologically, this research fits in a case study (STAKE, 1995; YIN, 2001) of interpretative qualitative type that uses a questionnaire (NUNAN, 1992) and an interview (RUBIN & RUBIN, 2005) as data gathering instruments. I identified ten different perspectives of students about English learning in the context of this research. The analysis of the results showed that there are some established principles in the Curriculum and in the Teacher Book which permeate the Student Book, as seen in the identified perspectives of students of English learning based on grammar, the team work positive consideration, and their collaborative role for colleagues learning. In other hand, some other perspectives showed that there are divergences between the orientation inside the Curriculum and Teacher Book and the manner how the exercises are presented in the Student Book and worked in classroom, such as the lack of activities of speaking and listening or that is only possible to learn the idiom by means of training and repetitions, as perceived by the students / Esta pesquisa está inserida na área da Linguística Aplicada e tem por objetivo investigar as perspectivas do aluno de uma escola pública em relação ao trabalho com os exercícios de língua inglesa propostos no Caderno do Aluno da Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo (3° ano do Ensino Médio - volume 3). Os tipos de exercícios abordados neste estudo centram-se na gramática, que está inserida na concepção de linguagem, e no trabalho em equipe. O contexto educacional compreendido se baseia no Currículo de Língua Estrangeira Moderna, Inglês, do Estado de São Paulo (SÃO PAULO, 2010), e tem como aportes o Caderno do Aluno (SÃO PAULO, 2009a) e o Caderno do Professor (SÃO PAULO, 2009b). O eixo teórico adotado se fundamenta principalmente em Vigotski (1934/1991; 1934/2008) e sua visão Sócio-Histórico-Cultural. Em complemento, recorre-se a Koch (2003), Travaglia (1995/2005), Larsen-Freeman (2003) e Celce-Murcia (2008) em se tratando de linguagem e gramática; e a Magalhães (2009) para abordar o trabalho em equipe. Metodologicamente, esta pesquisa se enquadra num estudo de caso (STAKE, 1995; YIN, 2001) de cunho qualitativo interpretativista, que se utiliza de questionário (NUNAN, 1992) e de entrevista (RUBIN & RUBIN, 2005) como instrumentos de coleta de dados. Foram identificadas dez diferentes perspectivas dos alunos em relação à aprendizagem de inglês neste contexto de pesquisa. Os resultados da análise mostraram que há alguns princípios estabelecidos no Currículo e no Caderno do Professor que permeiam as atividades do Caderno do Aluno, conforme se verifica nas perspectivas dos alunos identificadas: de que se aprende inglês com as atividades de gramática, de que consideram positivo o trabalho em equipe, e de que eles contribuem para a aprendizagem de seus colegas. Por outro lado, algumas outras perspectivas apontam que há uma divergência entre as orientações que estão no Currículo e no Caderno do Professor e a maneira como os exercícios são apresentados no Caderno do Aluno e trabalhados em sala de aula, como a de que os alunos sentem falta de atividades que contemplem as habilidades de speaking (falar) e listening (escutar), ou de que só é possível aprender o idioma por meio de treinos e repetições

Cette étude traite du travail en équipe et de la coopération patronale-syndicale. Nous avons évalué l’influence de la coopération patronale-syndicale sur le fonctionnement et l’autonomie collective des équipes de travail. La méthodologie utilisée s’appuie sur une étude de cas contrastés du point de vue de la variable indépendante (l’intensité de la coopération patronale-syndicale), en neutralisant le plus grand nombre possible de variables de contrôle pouvant influencer la variable dépendante (fonctionnement et autonomie des équipes de travail). Des entrevues semi-structurées avec les représentants des deux usines sélectionnées ont confirmé que la coopération patronale-syndicale était élevée dans une usine et faible dans l’autre. L’analyse des données relatives à notre variable dépendante est basée principalement sur les résultats d’un questionnaire et les données obtenues indiquent que les répondants de l’usine d’Alma font des évaluations plus élevées des aspects liés aux dimensions de la variable dépendantes et celles-ci recouvrent des aspects axés sur la gestion des opérations alors que celles où les évaluations sont plus élevées à Kénogami concernent majoritairement des aspects plus secondaires. Notre hypothèse est essentiellement confirmée et démontre une relation positive entre un degré élevé de coopération patronale-syndicale et l’évaluation par les membres du fonctionnement et de l’autonomie collective de leur équipe. Cette relation positive est cependant mitigée, car elle ne se vérifie pas pour certaines dimensions qui renvoient à des aspects plus secondaires de l’autonomie collective des équipes de travail. / The main focus of the research is the analysis of the phenomena and the link between the union-management Cooperation and the work team. We are pursuing by submitting a main hypothesis: the degree of union-management Cooperation has a positive influence on the functioning and collective self-reliance of work teams. Methodology used relies on a point of multiple case study of the independent variable (the intensity of the employer-Union cooperation) in neutralizing the greatest possible number of control variables that can influence the dependent variable (operation and autonomy of the teams work). Semi-structured interviews were conducted with representative’s employer and Union. The results show that two selected plants have confirmed that the union-Cooperation was high in a factory and low in the other. Our dependent variable data analysis is based primarily on the results of a questionnaire and the resulting data indicate that Alma plant respondents have the highest ratings of dimensions related to their degree of autonomy and the functioning of their team work. Our assumption is essentially confirmed and demonstrates a positive relationship between a high degree of union-management Cooperation and assessment by the members of their team’s operations and collective self-reliance of work teams. However, this positive relationship is mixed, because it does not apply for certain dimensions that concerns more trivial aspects of the collective autonomy of work teams.

This study addresses the effectiveness of communication between the team (doctors, sisters and social workers) and patients at the Breast Cancer Clinic of the Johannesburg Hospital. Tue needs of patients were highlighted, as well as the role of care-giver, both as a group and in their separate disciplines, in attempting to meet these needs. Tue empirical survey was carried out through the use of questionnaires as well as interview schedules. Patients, doctors, nurses and social workers were used as respondents. Results indicated that the majority of patients' needs for information and support were met by the team in general; however, a need for further social work intervention seemed to be apparent. In addition, several barriers were found to inhibit both team-patient and inter-team communication. Tue researcher used the information gathered in this study to make recommendations that will facilitate improved communication in the clinic, with specific reference to the role of the social worker. / Social Work / M.A.(Social Science: Mental Health)

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2009 / Este estudo buscou analisar a percepção do agente comunitário de saúde sobre a formação recebida e a possibilidade de aplicação/mobilização das competências requeridas para mudanças no processo de trabalho. A educação para o trabalho é considerada uma estratégia para a transformação social, implicando em reformulação de estratégias para tornar os trabalhadores profissionais comprometidos, formando-os em processos educativos direcionados para competências, sob os princípios da humanização e foco no trabalho, lócus em que se evidencia e se desenvolvem as necessidades de reorientação do desempenho do trabalhador de saúde. Para isso buscou-se conhecer as percepções dos ACS, egressos do módulo I, formação inicial do curso técnico de agente comunitário de saúde, em relação aos conceitos de saúde e promoção da saúde, processo de trabalho e competência profissional e formação dos agentes comunitários de saúde. Partiu-se da premissa de que os processos de formação dos Agentes Comunitário de Saúde, não atende às necessidades da comunidade e da estratégia saúde da família, uma vez que em sua maioria ocorrem de forma desarticulada do contexto das práticas. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram agentes comunitários de saúde egressos do curso de formação inicial em agente comunitário de saúde, integrantes de equipe saúde da família. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que teve como instrumento central de coleta de dados o grupo focal e técnicas complementares a observação participante e a análise documental. Os dados obtidos foram analisados de acordo com a técnica de análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Evidencia-se que o conceito de saúde na percepção do ACS, não esta presente a abordagem biomédica, curativa, como ausência de doença, mas há uma ampliação para além ao entender a saúde como um direito fundamental para as condições de saúde e qualidade de vida. Consideraram os determinantes sociais da saúde (DSS) como fatores primordiais que intervêm sobre o campo da saúde e também a necessidade de políticas públicas intersetoriais como fator estruturante para uma boa qualidade de vida. Quanto à promoção da saúde evidenciou-se as fragilidades na sua aplicação no processo de trabalho. Os trabalhos educativos são fatores de transformação dos comportamentos dos indivíduos. Foram ressaltadas as questões intersubjetivas no trabalho com dados prescritos e real, cujos enfrentamentos no processo educativo são poucos aproveitados. E desenvolver ações participativas. Quanto ao processo de trabalho evidenciou-se distanciamento entre sua atuação e as barreiras organizacionais, havendo necessidade de uma maior articulação entre ACS e equipe do serviço para que se efetive um trabalho em equipe com planejamento das ações. Como eixo central do trabalho está o acolhimento, acessibilidade e trabalho em equipe. Em relação à competência existe uma dificuldade no seu entendimento, embora o curso conseguisse trabalhar os conhecimentos necessários para a prática da profissão. / This study aimed at analyzing the health community agent`s perception about the training received and the possibility of application/mobilization of the competences required for changes in the work process. Education for work is considered a strategy for social changes, implying in reformulation of strategies to make the Professional workers become committed, training them in educative processes directed towards competence, under the humanization principle and focused on work, locus where it appears and where the needs are developed for reorientation of the health worker`s performance. For this purpose, we sought to learn the ACS perceptions, module I graduates, initial training of the technical course of community health agent, in relation to health concepts and health promotion, work process, professional competence and training of the community health agents. It started from the premise that the training processes of the Community Health Agents, does not meet the needs of the community and the strategy family health, since most of them occur in a way disconnected from the context of the practices. The subjects of the research were health community agents, students that had finished the beginner`s training course in health community agents, belonging to the health family team. It is a qualitative research that had as central tool of data collection the focal group and complementary techniques of participant observation and the documental analysis. The data obtained were analyzed according to the technique of content analysis proposed by Bardin. The concept of health in the ACS perception, does not present the curative, biomedical approach as absence of the disease, but it goes further when understanding health as a fundamental right for health conditions and quality of life. The social determinants of health (DSS) were considered as the main factors that interfere in the health field and also the need for intersectorial public policies as a structuring factor for a good quality of life. Regarding health promotion the frailties in its application in the work process became evident. The educational works are transformation factors of the individuals’ behavior. The intersubjective issues in the work with real and prescribed data, whose discussions in the educative process are not very well used were highlighted. And develop participative action. The work process revealed a gap between its performance and the organizational barriers, with the need of a greater articulation between ACS and the service team so that a team work with planning of the actions becomes effective. As the central axis of the work are receptiveness, acessibility and team work. In relation to competence there is difficulty in its understanding, although the course could work the necessary knowledge to practice the profession.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of implementing community based care for moderately mentally retarded persons in a specific centre in the Port Elizabeth area. The objectives of the study were to identify • the needs of the moderately mentally retarded children. • the physical, psychosocial and vocational rehabilitation means of meeting these needs. • how involved the communities, parents and government were in the care of moderately mentally retarded children. A quantitative, exploratmy and descriptive design was used. A sample of 50 moderately mentally retarded children was utilised. Data were collected by means of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The major research findings indicate that community care for MMRPs could only be feasible with sufficient resources, expertise and community involvement. All these aspects appeared to be lacking in the centre where this research was conducted raising questions as to benefits which the mentally retarded children and their parents and the community could derive from these services. However recommendations were made on identified shortcomings, problems and needs. / Health Science / M.A.(Nursing Science)
