Evaluation in business discourse / Keoneeng [i.e. Keoneng] K. Magocha

Magocha, Keoneng Know January 2010 (has links)
The aim of the thesis is to explore, from a linguistic perspective, the construction and maintenance of interaction in documents in which directives are conveyed in business communication correspondence, in order to input directly into the pedagogic practice in written business communication. The focus is research into ways of scaffolding relationships in documents for correspondence, an area that represents an important aspect of language use in business communication practice. The data for the study includes letters, memoranda and saving rams in which directives are conveyed written by writers of English as a second language and following various channels of communication. Two methods are used to extract the relevant data in which evaluative meanings are conveyed. These are Wordsmith to extract evaluative and patterns and a manual analysis to identify the evaluative structures of the texts. The linguistic construal of interpersonal scaffolding is investigated drawing on the model of APPRAISAL (Martin, 2000), which is located within the Hallidayan grammar as the theoretical point of departure. The choice of language used in the texts is interrogated and interpreted with reference to the theory. analysis focuses on the linguistic systems that appropriately serve or construe the interactive function of language and addresses issues such as kinds of semantic values that are conveyed, the patterns in which they are expressed and their texture. The objective is not to make generalizations about how writers of documents manage interaction and persuade their recipients to carry out the actions they desire. Rather the aim is to develop a theoretical framework to explain the evaluative strategies that are encoded in the texts and the implications of choosing amongst different strategies. ii The thesis therefore contributes a theoretically motivated and dynamic explanation of the ways in which interaction is managed in the context of texts in which directives are communicated especially amongst Batswana writing in the English language. From a pedagogic perspective the explanations of managing interaction developed in the study provide insights and resources for teachers of business communication writing to assist them in modelling evaluative strategies in business correspondence writing and helping their students to develop effective written communication strategies. / Thesis (Ph.D. (English)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2010.

A case for dialogic practice : a reconceptualisation of ‘inappropriate’ demand for and organisation of out of hours general practice services for children under five

Ehrich, Kathryn January 2000 (has links)
The recent expansion of general practitioner (GP) out of hours cooperatives indicates that many British GPs see this as the solution to managing out of hours work, particularly the 'problem' of 'inappropriate' demand. This thesis investigates the highly contentious subject of 'inappropriateness' of demand for out of hours GP services for children under five, and develops a methodology that allows for a reconceptualisation of the issues involved based on the beliefs, assumptions and practices of all those concerned, rather than locating the 'problem' within the province of parents alone, or within the doctor-patient relationship as a bounded system. Using a predominantly sociological and anthropological conceptual framework, the thesis draws on a synthesis of views and practice, bringing those of professionals and parents together with fieldwork observations based in the primary care centre setting. It suggests that contrary to talk about management of the 'problem' in technical, bureaucratic and medical terms, this becomes a moral issue in practice. Scientific or organisational imperatives disguise largely moral proscriptions and examples illustrate ways in which moral and emotional dimensions embedded within these social relations can conflict with particular forms of rationality. The analysis shows how organisational initiatives that fail to take account of such moral frameworks can produce unexpected and unintended consequences. The thesis illustrates the value of what is described as a dialogic process, taking account of the fluidity between voices, layers of time and space, and interchange between researcher, participants, and future audiences. The play of these issues in the rapid and extensive growth of cooperatives is discussed in the wider context of the rhetoric of consumerism and shifts in interprofessional practices and relationships. Negotiation of 'appropriate' supply of and demand for out of hours services has had a major impact on government initiatives for primary care as a whole. Thus key elements in the formation of cooperatives, originally targeted at a more narrow conceptualisation of problems, can be seen as expressing a deeper impetus for change, and serving as vehicles for more fundamental and rapid development.

Brother Nation: a novel. / Representations of the Other in contemporary Australia.

Soman, Rudrakumar. January 2007 (has links)
Representations of the Other in Contemporary Australia is a thesis consisting of a novel, Brother Nation, and an exegesis in a separate volume. Brother Nation is set in Australia at the beginning of the twenty-first century, a time of great political and social change. The novel explores ambiguities in issues of race, crime and moral justice through the eyes of an adolescent who comes of age amidst a chain of disturbing events. Omar Assaf is a sensitive sixteen-year-old with a problem—he needs to lose his virginity. However, like most boys his age, he is anxious and naive about matters of sex and love. When a young female friend, Belle, rejects his romantic overtures, Omar is crushed. He rapidly falls under the corrupting influence of his older brother, Sam, and Sam’s motley band of miscreant friends. Fuelled by drugs, alcohol and pornography, the boys roam the migrant suburbs of southwest Sydney, alleviating their boredom and frustration by flirting with crime, cruising in cars and pursuing girls. However, Omar soon learns that being involved with Sam and the boys has dangerous consequences. In compensating for his sense of emasculation, Omar finds himself taking part in a series of attacks, including a betrayal of Belle. Though ambivalent about and at times sickened by his complicity, Omar realises much too late that he and his brother have entered a theatre where their fate will be determined by broader, more powerful forces than he could ever have imagined. The exegesis charts the creation of Brother Nation via the author’s movement from a mode of autopoiesis to allopoiesis, through the practice of narrative research. That is, the essay is structured to illustrate how the process of researching the novel resulted in the production of knowledge external to the creative work itself. In doing this I discuss the genesis of the idea to write the novel, the basis and modes of my narrative research, the style of the finished work in relation to the genre of the ‘faction’ or ‘non-fiction novel’, and the internal and external conflicts that arose in relation to the representation of demonised Arabic Other characters in the story. I also contextualise the work in relation to other relevant fiction and non-fiction texts that address similar subject matter, and make a case for holding a non-essentialised notion of cultural identity regarding my own speaking position. In particular, this exegesis investigates problematic questions in relation to representations of contemporary characters with an immigrant Other background; and, via the framework of Bakhtinian theories of dialogism and heteroglossia, considers the extent to which seemingly incompatible moral viewpoints can be coherently instantiated in fiction through a multiplicity of characters’ voices. / v. 1 [Novel]: Brother Nation -- v. 2 [Exegesis]: Representations of the Other in contemporary Australia. / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Humanities, 2007

The artistry of conversation

Jones, Rhiannon January 2016 (has links)
This thesis proposes a new way of thinking about conversation as a methodology and argues that conversation itself can be considered as an art practice. The practice research has been developed through a body of five artworks produced between 2012-14, each of which directly engaged with communities and residents of the city of Nottingham, UK, and emerged in relation to the specificity of this location. The doctoral research has been presented within the international contexts of art and social science through several seminars and conferences, including the researcher's co-founding and co-curation of InDialogue (2012 – present), a biannual interdisciplinary symposium. The research engages with existing work on conversation and the dialogic by Allan Kaprow, David Bohm, Mikhail Bakhtin, Grant H. Kester and Hubert Hermans, from which it develops a socio-artistic and philosophical framework to theoretically underpin a body of dialogic practice. For the purpose of this thesis, PhD stands for Practice in High Definition: the body of work produced has been tested and analysed to develop an original methodology, which has been termed APSSL, to describe its five key features: architactics, performativity, storyteller, social activism and legacy. The thesis sets out the framework for a performative and experiential approach, providing examples of the orchestration of space and the dialogic architectures of site and body. Conversation is considered as a methodological producer and as the instigator of practice. Aesthetic in approach, the methodology is recognised for its socializing power in terms of generating the opportunity for a public presentation of self and other, and for the mobility of voices in spaces. It establishes that there can be an artistry of conversation.

A pesquisa quer ressaltar o sentido de uma educação filosófica: o despertar de uma consciência que se encaminha para o autoconhecimento. A presente tese propõe ainda um método para o ensino da filosofia: a mediação dialógica indagante. Este método acredita que o ensino da filosofia, se quiser despertar no educando o processo do autoconhecimento, precisa nortear-se em dois princípios essenciais: o diálogo e o questionamento. / Salvador

In this context we present the practice of physiotherapist whose training has remnants of biomedical conception of health education characterized by strong focus on disease rather than the subject that presents. We consider the dialogic relationship that occurs during physical therapy important element in mediation for understanding the entirety of the subject-patient. The research The dialogical relationship in clinical practice of the physiotherapist and the full view of the subject-patient, aims to understand how does the dialogic relational communicability in practice this professional physiotherapy for the identification of subjective and objective aspects that establish a comprehensive view of the subject -patient. It is therefore a scientific qualitative study with a phenomenological hermeneutic dialectic approach. The research field is the University of Fortaleza - UNIFOR. The sources used in the research were: graduates of UNIFOR physiotherapists, physiotherapy course coordinator of that institution and official documents governing the profession. Evidence collection techniques were: document analysis and reflective interview. The survey results indicate that the dialogue that happens during clinical practice in Physiotherapy set up time that favors the understanding of the subject-patient and their context. But this understanding does not outweigh the importance of the physical component sets during treatment. Thus, with a view to rehabilitating the subject-patient, the therapist makes use of scientific expertise for this purpose. The given initial thesis: the physiotherapist relationship / subject-patient, there is evidence of the appreciation of intersubjectivity with a strong presence of clinical behaviors that favor the physical body is not experiencing a communicability that overcomes the body dichotomy / mind, was partially confirmed by the data and analyzes. We conclude that the speeches of the subjects of this research announced an awareness of the understanding of the subjective aspects of the subjects-patients still showing the importance of the perspective of integral vision of the same from the intersubjectivity. We note, therefore, not only evidence but statements about that only the use of targeted behavior for functionality not cope with the demand of care within the practice in Physiotherapy and communicability exercised during clinical practice promotes the development of understanding of biopsychosocial dimensions of those who looks for treatment. / A compreensão dos aspectos biopsicossociais dos sujeitos que buscam atenção em saúde surge como caráter atrelado a uma boa prática. Nesse contexto apresentamos a prática do profissional fisioterapeuta cuja formação apresenta resquícios da concepção biomédica de educação em saúde caracterizada pelo forte enfoque na doença em detrimento do sujeito que a apresenta. Consideramos a relação dialógica que ocorre durante o atendimento fisioterapêutico elemento importante na mediação para a compreensão da integralidade do sujeito-paciente. A pesquisa A relação dialógica na prática clínica do profissional fisioterapeuta e a visão integral do sujeito-paciente, tem como objetivo compreender como ocorre a comunicabilidade relacional dialógica na prática desse profissional de Fisioterapia visando a identificação de aspectos subjetivos e objetivos que estabelecem uma visão integral do sujeito-paciente. É, portanto, uma pesquisa científica do tipo qualitativa com abordagem fenomenológica hermenêutica dialética. O campo de pesquisa foi a Universidade de Fortaleza – UNIFOR. As fontes utilizadas na pesquisa foram: fisioterapeutas egressos da UNIFOR, coordenadora do curso de Fisioterapia da referida instituição e documentos oficiais que regem a profissão. As técnicas de coleta de evidências foram: análise documental e entrevista reflexiva. Os resultados da pesquisa indicam que o diálogo que acontece durante a prática clínica em Fisioterapia configura-se momento que favorece a compreensão do sujeito-paciente e seu contexto. Porém, tal compreensão não supera a importância que o componente físico estabelece durante o tratamento. Assim, com vistas à reabilitação do sujeito-paciente, o fisioterapeuta lança mão de conhecimentos técnicos científicos para tal fim. A tese inicial proferida: na relação fisioterapeuta/sujeito-paciente, há indícios da valorização da intersubjetividade com forte presença de condutas clinicas que privilegiam o corpo físico não ocorrendo uma comunicabilidade que supere a dicotomia corpo/mente, foi parcialmente confirmada pelos dados e análises realizadas. Concluímos que os discursos dos sujeitos desta pesquisa anunciaram uma conscientização acerca da compreensão dos aspectos subjetivos dos sujeitos-pacientes evidenciando ainda a importância da perspectiva da visão integral dos mesmos a partir da intersubjetividade. Constatamos, portanto, não apenas indícios e sim afirmações acerca de que somente a utilização de condutas voltadas para a funcionalidade não dá conta da demanda do cuidar no âmbito da prática em Fisioterapia e que a comunicabilidade exercida durante a prática clínica promove o desenvolvimento da compreensão das dimensões biopsicossocial daquele que busca tratamento.

Dialogic methods, with the objective of engaging groups in flows of conversations to envisage and co-create their own future, are growing fast within organizations as a means to achieve collective change. Sharing constructionist ideas about the possibility of multiple realities and language as constitutive of such realities, dialogue has turned into a promising way for transformation, especially in a macro context of constant change and increasing complexity, where traditional structures, relationships and forms of work are questioned. Research on the topic has mostly focused on specific methods or applications, with few attempts to study it in a broader sense. Also, despite the fact that dialogic methods work on the assumption that realities are socially constructed, few studies approach the topic from a social constructionist perspective, as a research methodology per se. Thus, while most existing research aims at explaining whether or how particular methods meet particular results, my intention is to explore the meanings sustaining these new forms of organizational practice. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with 25 people working with dialogic methods: 11 facilitators and 14 sponsors, from 8 different organizations in Brazil. Firstly, the research findings indicate several contextual elements that seem to sustain the choices for dialogic methods. Within this context, there does not seem to be a clear or specific demand for dialogic methods, but a set of different motivations, objectives and focuses, bringing about several contrasts in the way participants name, describe and explain their experiences with such methods, including tensions on power relations, knowledge creation, identity and communication. Secondly, some central ideas or images were identified within such contrasts, pointing at both directions: dialogic methods as opportunities for the creation of new organizational realities (with images of a ‘door’ or a ‘flow’, for instance, which suggest that dialogic methods may open up the access to other perspectives and the creation of new realities); and dialogic methods as new instrumental mechanisms that seem to reproduce the traditional and non-dialogical forms of work and relationship. The individualistic tradition and its tendency for rational schematism - pointed out by social constructionist scholars as strong traditions in our Western Culture - could be observed in some participants’ accounts with the image of dialogic methods as a ‘gym’, for instance, in which dialogical – and idealized –‘abilities’ could be taught and trained, turning dialogue into a tool, rather than a means for transformation. As a conclusion, I discuss what the implications of such taken-for-granted assumptions may be, and offer some insights into dialogue (and dialogic methods) as ‘the art of being together’. / O objetivo deste projeto é compreender, sob a perspectiva do Construcionismo Social, quais são os sentidos que facilitadores externos e membros de organizações que trabalham com métodos dialógicos atribuem a si mesmos e ao seu trabalho. Com o objetivo de envolver grupos em fluxos de conversas para investigação, visualização e cocriação de seu próprio futuro, os chamados métodos dialógicos constituem práticas crescentes para geração de mudanças e desenvolvimento organizacional. Alinhado com conceitos construcionistas sobre a possibilidade de múltiplas realidades e sobre a linguagem como constitutiva de tais realidades, o diálogo tem emergido como um caminho promissor para a transformação, especialmente em um macro contexto de constantes mudanças e crescente complexidade, desafiando formas tradicionais de trabalho, estrutura e relacionamentos. Pesquisas na área concentram-se em análises de métodos ou aplicações específicas, havendo poucos estudos mais abrangentes sobre o tema. Além disso, apesar dos métodos dialógicos trabalharem a partir da premissa de que realidades são socialmente construídas, poucos estudos abordam o tema sob uma perspectiva metodológica sócio-construcionista. Assim, enquanto a maioria da literatura existente concentra-se em explicar como e porque certos métodos atingem certos resultados, minha intenção é explorar os possíveis sentidos que sustentam estas novas práticas organizacionais. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com 25 profissionais que trabalham ou utilizam métodos dialógicos: 11 facilitadores e 14 membros de organizações. Os resultados da pesquisa indicam vários elementos contextuais que parecem sustentar as escolhas por métodos dialógicos, não parecendo haver, entretanto, uma demanda clara ou específica para tais práticas, mas um conjunto de diferentes motivações, objetivos e focos. Isso faz com que diversos contrastes apareçam na maneira como os participantes nomeiam, descrevem e explicam suas experiências, incluindo tensões relacionadas a poder, geração de conhecimento, identidade e comunicação. Dentro de tais contrastes, quatro ideias centrais foram identificadas, apontando para dois sentidos: (i) métodos dialógicos como oportunidades para a criação de novas realidades organizacionais (a partir de imagens como a de uma ‘porta’ ou um ‘fluxo’, por exemplo, sugerindo que estas práticas possibilitam o acesso a novas perspectivas e a criação de novas realidades); e (ii) métodos dialógicos como mecanismos que parecem reproduzir as mesmas formas tradicionais e não dialógicas de trabalho e relacionamento. Diante deste contraste, as tradições modernas do individualismo e suas tendências para racionalização e esquematização - apontadas por autores construcionistas como fortes tradições da nossa cultura ocidental - puderam ser observadas em muitas falas a partir de imagens como a de uma 'academia’ ou um ‘espaço’ intencionalmente criado, onde habilidades idealizadas dos indivíduos e das organizações (ainda compreendidos sob uma perspectiva dual sujeito-objeto) poderiam ser ensinadas ou treinadas, transformando o diálogo em uma ferramenta, ao invés de um meio para a transformação. Como conclusão, apresento algumas das implicações que tais tradições podem gerar e ofereço alguns insights sobre o diálogo (a partir dos métodos dialógicos) como 'a arte de estarmos juntos”.

This interaction is given by the Dialogic Environmental Education (DEE), which touches both fields of knowledge in an attempt to create and maintain a dialogue through environmental concepts and practices. It is crucial to think about a DEE, which is constructed via a partnership between the diverse areas of scientific knowledge and local, popular experience in a dialogic manner that might stimulate real change. We intended to understand the contribution from the environmental practices to (elementary school) Geography in a DEE context, building an eco-praxis. Therefore, we have chosen the “Prainha do Canto Verde” Extractivist Reserve (RESEX), a traditional coastal community at Ceará state coastline, as the place for our research. It is an area delimited by a Conservational Unity for Sustainable Use, in which a community marked by struggle and resistance against speculation and by the defense of environmental conservation and land rights. The area is constituted by the morphological unity and coastal plan landscape, containing multiple faces: beach, storm beach, mobile and fixed sand dunes, interdune depression and coastal board besides the community nucleus. The theoretical basis is referenced upon the landscape geoecology (based on the geosystem theory) and the DEE (supported by an eco-relational perspective, based upon a integrated world perception that aspires a balanced and supportive relationship between the human being and him/herself, the other and the environment). After presenting the theoretical basis, we delimited the landscape unities and built the environmental diagnostics of the RESEX. From the analysis of the dialogic landscape, we identified the environmental practices existing inside the RESEX, based on dialogicity criteria. Finally, we pointed the contributions from the environmental practices to the elementary school Geography. / “Geografia e Educação Ambiental Dialógica: Conceitos e Práticas Ambientais na Reserva Extrativista da Prainha do Canto Verde-Ceará-Brasil” é uma pesquisa resultante da inter-conexão entre Geografia e Educação. Esta interação dá-se através da Educação Ambiental Dialógica (EAD), que tangencia as duas áreas do conhecimento, numa tentativa de criação e manutenção de diálogo através de conceitos e práticas ambientais. É crucial pensar uma EAD que seja construída em parceria com diferentes áreas do conhecimento científico e com o saber popular local, de maneira dialógica, para que seja possível repercutir em transformações reais. A intenção tem sido compreender a contribuição das práticas ambientais à Geografia (Escolar), num contexto de EAD, construindo uma ecopráxis. Desta feita, foi escolhida como área de pesquisa a Reserva Extrativista (RESEX) da Prainha do Canto Verde, uma comunidade tradicional litorânea, na zona costeira cearense. É uma área delimitada por uma unidade de conservação de uso sustentável, onde está assentada uma comunidade de luta e resistência contra a especulação imobiliária, em defesa da conservação ambiental e direito à terra. A área é constituída pela unidade morfológica e paisagística de planície litorânea, com feições de praia, pós-praia, dunas móveis e fixas, depressões interdunares, tabuleiro litorâneo, além do núcleo comunitário. A fundamentação teórica tem como referência a Geoecologia da Paisagem e a Educação Ambiental Dialógica. A Geoecologia da Paisagem está embasada na teoria geossistêmica. A EAD está fundamentada numa perspectiva eco-relacional alicerçada numa percepção integral de mundo que almeja uma relação equilibrada e solidária do ser humano com ele mesmo, com @ outr@, com o ambiente. Após o debate teórico, foram delimitadas as unidades de paisagem e construído o diagnóstico ambiental da RESEX. Diante da análise da paisagem dialógica, identificaram-se as práticas ambientais existentes na RESEX, baseando-se nos critérios de dialogicidade. Por fim, foram apontadas as contribuições das práticas ambientais à Geografia, com destaque para a Geografia Escolar.

Formação docente : reverberações possíveis na prática pedagógica

Selli, Maribel Susane January 2011 (has links)
Esta dissertação propõe uma reflexão no campo educacional sobre a formação docente numa perspectiva de coexistência de práticas pedagógicas que têm como referência a interação dialógica. A partir de minha pesquisa, abordo as reverberações que a formação docente pode produzir na prática do professor a partir de uma metodologia fundamentada na problematização do cotidiano e na invenção analisando o trabalho com sons realizado pelos alunos compondo a paisagem sonora da cidade imaginária. Esta proposta acolhe a coexistência de diferentes práticas e concepções existentes na escola propondo ao professor que realize experimentações a partir das reverberações que a formação docente instigar em sua prática cotidiana não desconsiderando sua trajetória e a rigidez dos currículos escolares. O cenário da pesquisa é uma turma de quarto ano de uma das professoras que integram o Projeto CIVITAS na zona rural, de uma Escola Municipal de Ensino Fundamental do Município de Sobradinho, Região Centro-Serra do RS. O projeto está vinculado ao LELIC – Laboratório de Estudos em Linguagem e Cognição do PPGEDU – Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da UFRGS. A pesquisa está fundamentada na análise dialógica tendo como referência a teoria de Mikhail Bakhtin. A análise dialógica tem como pressuposto de pesquisa o respeito aos diferentes sujeitos que a compõe considerando-os como vozes importantes nos diálogos que se estabelecem entre o campo empírico e a teoria. Busco na teoria bakhtiniana os conceitos de dialogismo, relação dialógica, autoria, exotopia, produção de sentidos e entonação para realizar a análise dos registros além dos conceitos de paisagem sonora de Murray Schafer e escuta sensível de Barbier para pensar os sons como forma de linguagem e reverberação. A composição dos registros para análise se deu a partir dos enunciados produzidos pelos alunos, professora e pesquisadora em seus diários de bordo e interlocuções, nos registros de vídeo e fotografias colecionados pelos sujeitos da pesquisa. Nesta proposta de formação a professora torna-se pesquisadora a partir da problematização de sua prática e das interações dialógicas que estabelece produzindo sentidos que lhe possibilita mergulhar no universo da autoria. Os resultados da pesquisa nos permitem pensar que é possível a coexistência de diferentes práticas na escola a partir de uma proposta de formação docente, realizada em pequenos grupos buscando o diálogo entre os desafios cotidianos do professor e a teoria. A produção de sons para a cidade imaginária criada pelos alunos reafirma que a formação pode reverberar na sala de aula mediante diferentes experimentações e vivências quando o professor se permite uma prática que aceita situações inusitadas. / This work proposes a reflection about teacher education that utilizes a dialogic interaction approach mostly. From my research work, I explore reverberations that may be produced in teacher education practices utilizing a methodology based on problematisation of everyday life and on an invention that analyses sounds produced by the students. These sounds compose the soundscape of an imaginary city. This proposal embraces the coexistence of different school conceptions and practices which propose to the school teacher to carry out experiments emerging from reverberations that the teaching education instigates in its own practice not ignoring its history and the rigidity of school curricula. The study setting is a fourth year class whose teacher takes part in the CIVITAS project that takes place in a district school in a rural area in Sobradinho town, located in the Central-Mountain Region of RS. The project is linked to LELIC - Laboratory Studies in Language and Cognition of PPGEDU - Graduate Program in Education at UFRGS. The research is based on an analysis referenced to the dialogic theory of Mikhail Bakhtin. The dialogical analysis considers as its premise the research about its different subjects, regarding them as important voices in the dialogues that flourish between theory and the empirical field. I seek to study - in the Bakhtinian theory - the concepts of dialogism, dialogical relationship, authorship, outsidedness, production of meaning and intonation to examine records besides Murray Schafer’s soundscape and Barbier’s sensitive attention concepts to think sounds as language form and reverberation. The record composition to the analysis comes from utterances made by students, teacher and researcher in their logbooks and dialogues, video records and photographs collected by research subjects. In this proposed training the teacher becomes researcher from the questioning of their practice and the dialogic interactions, establishing meaning production that enables one to dive into the world of authorship. The survey results allow us to think that it is possible to attain the coexistence of different practices in the school from a teacher’s education proposal held in small groups seeking dialogue between the teacher's daily challenges and theory. The production of sounds for the imaginary town created by the pupils restate that the training may reverberate in the classroom through various trials and experiences when the teacher is allowed to propose pedagogical practices that accept unusual situations.

Por isso, a pesquisa Design Dialógico: Uma Estratégia para a Gestão Criativa de Tradições tem por objetivo examinar o campo sinérgico decorrente do relacionamento entre designers e grupos de artesãos tradicionais, contando para isso, com as referências teóricas no campo da criatividade, da inovação, da cultura e do design, examinando práticas para a formulação de estratégias voltadas para a gestão criativa, com base em entrevistas, observação participante e não participante e análise de documentos. A partir da análise de todo material, foi construída uma tecnologia de gestão social que considera as necessidades no relacionamento entre designers e grupos tradicionais, envolvendo reconhecimento de identidades, inovação, fruição, economia plural, monitoramento e celebração de resultados.Essa tecnologia é apresentada em uma proposta de livro que busca contribuir para a re-valorização dos territórios humanos, o respeito às identidades no trabalho entre designers e comunidades tradicionais, bem como o reconhecimento da inovação para a permanência das tradições. Within a globalised world, it becomes essential to recognise and preserve the identity values in each culture, and their contribution to the differentiation and competitiveness is priceless for the design in the global market.Thus, this research seeks to examine the synergetic field emerging from the relationship between designers and groups of traditional artisans. The theoretical basis is the field of creativity, innovation, culture and design. We have examined practices for the formulation of strategies oriented to creative management, using interviews, participant and non-participant observation, and documents.We have built a social management technology considering designers and traditional group necessities, involving the recognition of identities, innovation, fruition, plural economy, monitoring and celebration of results.Present in a book proposal, such technology seeks to contribute to the promotion of human territories, the respect of identities at work among designers and traditional communities, as well as the recognition of innovation for the continuity of tradition.
