Esta pesquisa trata das relações entre cinema e educação. Tem como foco o trabalho de formação de crianças e adolescentes, integrantes do Projeto de Produção Audiovisual Clube das 5 – projeto de oficinas de cinema realizado na rede pública de ensino do município de Alvorada, na Região Metropolitana de Porto Alegre/RS. O objetivo é discutir a potência educativa e formativa do cinema, mediada pela figura do mestre; no caso, estudamos as estratégias do professor André Bozzetti que, no ano de 2013, idealizou o projeto, fazendo um convite aos seus estudantes, do 4º ao 8º ano escolar, da Escola Municipal Emília de Oliveira. Metodologicamente, nos inspiramos no fazer etnográfico, para levantar, compor e apresentar os dados da pesquisa; basicamente, operamos com a escrita de relatos de campo. Como referencial teórico, centramos a discussão nos conceitos de formação, psicagogia e parresía, como apontados por Foucault, em A Hermenêutica do Sujeito. Buscamos empreender uma descrição das escolhas de um mestre que coloca o cinema em discurso, tendo como objetivo não apenas a transmissão de um certo saber, mas modos possíveis de transformação de sujeitos jovens. Dito de outro modo, tratamos da figura do mestre que se forja no âmbito da psicagogia. Por fim, lançamos a hipótese de que o “Clube das 5” figura como um espaço de produção de verdades impulsionadoras de condutas éticas e estéticas – no sentido foucaultiano. Uma dessas condutas diz respeito à ideia de um processo compartilhado – entre professor e aluno – de formação e produção de conhecimento. Tensiona-se, assim, as proposições de um tipo clássico de formação, que supõe o sujeito como carência ou “não saber”. Os dados registrados e analisados evidenciam escolhas que escapam daquela educação que ignora repertórios e desejos tão diversos, apostando, ao contrário, na potência de práticas de formação de si, pela arte do cinema e da criação. / This research deals with the relations between film and education. It focuses on the work of children and teenagers’ formation, part of the Project of Audiovisual Production Clube das 5 – a project of workshops that takes place at public schools in the city of Alvorada, situated in the metropolitan area of Porto Alegre/RS. The objective is to discuss the educational and formational potential of film, mediated by the figure of the master. We study the strategies used by teacher André Bozzetti, who in 2013 idealized the project, inviting his students, of the 4th and 8th years of Elementary School from Emília de Oliveira Municipal School. Methodologically, we are inspired by the ethnographic making, to raise, compose and present research data. Basically, we operate with the writings of field reports. As a theoretical referential, we center the discussion on the concepts of formation, psychagogy and parrhesia, as pointed by Foucault in The Hermeneutics of the Subject. We aim to undertake a description of the choices of a master that puts film in discourse, having as his or her objective not only the transmission of certain knowledge but also possible modes of transformation of young subjects. In other words, we treat the figure of the master that is forged in the scope of psychagogy. Finally, we come up with the hypothesis that “Clube das 5” figures as a space of production of truths that propel ethical and aesthetical conducts – in the Foucaultian sense. One of these conducts refers to the idea of a shared process – between teacher and student – of knowledge formation and production. Thus, the propositions of a classical type of formation, which supposes the subject as lack or “not knowledge”, are stressed. Registered and analyzed data evidences choices that scape an education that ignores such diverse repertoires and desires, betting, on the contrary, in the potential of practices of formation of the self, through the art of film and creation.

The philosophical tradition has long understood subjectivity solely in reference to the self's place within the world and the powers of intentional transcendence which open it. Nowhere is this presupposition more apparent than in the thought of Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, and Merleau-Ponty. Despite the precise differences among their respective philosophies of transcendence, each understands the self as little else than that which opens the exteriority of a world and is thereby exhausted and determined by it. Against this prevailing assumption that the self is a 'being-in-the-world', I contend that the essence of subjectivity instead consists in the unworldly interiority of life's affective self-revelation. The studies that follow accordingly investigate five related aspects of subjectivity: the irreducibility of the self's individuality to society; the blow of vanity that reveals this inwardness; the resultant life that marshals and in turn deploys it; the power of the work of art to express it; and finally the promise of immortality that sustains it.

This is a study at the interface of self, craft, and sustainability. It is a small part of a wider personal and social conjecture on the subject of ‘change ’ involving these three domains.This research develops the proposal that the success of a profound social change, which in our time pertains to the change towards sustainable societies, lies in the likeliness of self-transformation in individuals. Here the craft perspective is taken in order to link it to a large body of research in response to environmental and ethical concerns. However, unlike other object-oriented approaches with a similar purpose, the purpose of this research is to seek a greater contribution from craft practice when it is viewed as a transformation of the craftsperson. By referring to this human capacity, it argues, not only is crafting an inducement to self-transformation but also self-transformation can be regarded as a craft. To support this argument, material is drawn from the literature on craft, sustainability, philosophy of the self and social and developmental psychology. The historical and developmental formations of the key areas of the research are explored and psychological factors that motivate desirable ‘changes’ are identified. This exploration is then supported by interviews, personal narratives and the active participation of the researcher in the actual practice of craft. The research suggests that the state of self-actualization, where humanity reaches its fullness, is the destination to which the self needs to transform. It then traces elements involved in such a transformation back to their origin. This includes meanings and values leading to transformation, knowledge leading to meanings, experience leading to knowledge and the embodied connection between the self and the environment leading to experience. At the deepest level, it proposes a particular mode of relationship which is best described as craftsmanship or ‘the craft way of being.’ This process is also traced in the personal experience of the researcher.This thesis concludes with an explanation of the concept of ‘deep craft’. It proposes that the outcome of a deeper understanding of craft, which in effect widens the territory of craft activities, becomes manifest in the world in the form of ‘care taking’, essential for the ‘change’ towards more sustainable societies.

Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Human Ecology-Personal Financial Planning / Sonya Britt / The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of self-regulation on positive financial behaviors and bankruptcy filings of high net worth individuals. The implications are directed toward various groups and factions of high net worth individuals as populations of interest. The basic premise of self-regulation of behavior theory is that human action is driven by attainment of goals and the degrees and forms of behavior expressed by an individual can be quantified by specific personality characteristics which affect both the response to, and velocity toward, those goals (Carver & Scheier, 1998). A survey administered to high net worth individuals (i.e., net worth of $1 million or greater) with a oversampling of high net worth individuals who have filed bankruptcy focused on self-reporting personality measures key to the self-regulation of behavior theory, such as optimism-pessimism and appetitive motives. By utilizing data gathered from high net worth individuals, a t test was used to examine mean differences in the personality characteristics of high net worth individuals who have filed bankruptcy and high net worth individuals who have not filed bankruptcy. The debt-to-income and debt-to-assets ratios were utilized as the dependent variables in an OLS regression analysis to analyze if any of the variables of interest significantly influenced the debt-to-income ratio, or DTI, or debt-to-assets ratio, or debt-ratio. This was followed by a logistic regression analysis predicting the odds of a bankruptcy filing based on the variables of interest. Potential differences in personality and behavior may explain wealth management issues that exist between high net worth individuals who have filed bankruptcy and high net worth individuals who have not filed bankruptcy.
