The researcher´s involvement in the field of visual impairment began with the birth of her youngest child, who is congenitally blind, and continued with voluntary work and eventually the founding of Laramara Brazilian Association for Assistance to People with Visual. In educating her daughter, she used playing and toys, which encourage interaction and promote learning. Her preoccupation with her daughter s education motivated her to seek special education training at the University of São Paulo and to later work in the field. She developed playing activities and special toys and sought to share these ideas with families, introducing similar strategies at Laramara. She is a follower of Vygotsky s social-historical and cultural ideas, which emphasize social interaction and cultural instruments among them toys as determining factors for children s development. To respond to children s needs, she created special toys currently a total of 109 that are accessible to all Brazilian children through the publication Brincar para Todos (Playing for All), which shows how to construct and use them. The issues researched are: what is the role of playing and of specialized toys for the learning, development and inclusion of people with visual impairment? The goals were to verify the importance of specialized toys for the development of youths who used them in their infancy and to learn how families viewed playing as a mediating tool in their children s development. The methods used were qualitative ethnographic research, participative observation, in-depth interviewing, video documentation and document analysis. Five young men and women who participated in the researcher´s work when they were very young and who continue receiving services at the organization were interviewed. Also included in the research were five mothers of young children who are involved in toy and play-related projects at Laramara. The results show that the youths value the playing and the specialized toys for their learning and for their mainstream educational and social inclusion. Parents highlight the importance of the openness of the institutional area and its stimulating atmosphere as well as the specialized toys and playing activities, which are essential for the development and social inclusion of their children. / Esta pesquisa pretende verificar a importância dos brinquedos e brincadeiras para o desenvolvimento e inclusão de crianças deficientes visuais. O envolvimento da pesquisadora com esta área começou com o nascimento de sua filha caçula, que tem cegueira congênita, continuou com o trabalho voluntário e a fundação de Laramara Associação Brasileira de Assistência ao Deficiente Visual. Na educação da filha usou brincadeiras e brinquedos, que favoreceram a interação e aprendizagem. A preocupação com sua educação motivou-a a buscar habilitação em pedagogia especializada na Universidade de São Paulo e depois trabalhar na área. Desenvolveu brincadeiras e brinquedos especiais e procurou compartilhar essas idéias com as famílias, introduzindo estratégias semelhantes na Laramara. Acredita no pensamento sócio-histórico e cultural de Vygotsky que enfatiza a interação social e os instrumentos culturais, entre eles o brinquedo, como fatores determinantes para o desenvolvimento infantil. Para atender às necessidades das crianças criou brinquedos especiais, que hoje são em número de 109, acessíveis a todas as crianças brasileiras, pela divulgação no livro Brincar para Todos, que mostra como confeccioná-los e utilizá-los. As questões investigadas na pesquisa são: qual o papel da brincadeira e brinquedos especiais para a aprendizagem, desenvolvimento e inclusão de pessoas com deficiência visual? Os objetivos foram: verificar a importância dos brinquedos especiais para o desenvolvimento de jovens que os utilizaram na infância; como a família encara a ludicidade como mediadora do desenvolvimento de seus filhos. Foi utilizada a pesquisa qualitativa etnográfica, a observação participante, entrevista intensiva, videografia e análise de documentos. Foram entrevistados cinco jovens que participaram do trabalho da pesquisadora quando pequenos e que freqüentam a Instituição até os dias atuais. Participaram ainda cinco mães de crianças pequenas, envolvidas em projetos de brinquedos e brincadeiras na Laramara. Os resultados mostram que os jovens valorizam as brincadeiras e brinquedos especiais para sua aprendizagem e inclusão escolar e social. Os pais enfatizaram a importância do espaço institucional acolhedor, considerando o ambiente estimulador, os brinquedos especiais e as brincadeiras essenciais para o desenvolvimento e inclusão educacional e social de seus filhos.

O Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), sistema público de saúde brasileiro, tem evoluído continuamente para se adaptar aos novos desafios da área de saúde e as novas necessidades da população. Entre os aprimoramentos para atender a esses desafios está a oferta de medicamentos de alto custo à população por meio de farmácias de medicamentos especializados como a de Ribeirão Preto, que atende aos residentes no município e também as pessoas das cidades englobadas pela DRS XIII. Com o objetivo de analisar o processo de uma farmácia de medicamentos especializados, identificando os problemas e propondo melhorias foi aplicada a metodologia lean healthcare. Inicialmente foi realizada uma pesquisa juntamente aos usuários desse serviço em busca de uma definição do valor no serviço prestado pela farmácia. Os resultados encontrados mostram que receber todos os medicamentos solicitados, a correta orientação em relação as dúvidas, pouco tempo de espera na fila e o bom atendimento são os itens mais valorizados por eles. A partir dessa definição de valor, de entrevistas com funcionários da farmácia e de observações no local, foram criados mapas do fluxo de valor do processo de trabalho da farmácia, identificando os desperdícios praticados e apontando sugestões de melhorias através da aplicação da metodologia lean healthcare. Após a finalização dessa etapa foram criadas propostas para a melhoria do fluxo contínuo, para o estabelecimento da demanda puxada e para a melhoria contínua. Além disso, realizou-se uma análise crítica dos resultados obtidos em que se pôde perceber que as soluções aos problemas vivenciados pela farmácia possuem diferentes graus de dificuldade de implantação, porém, apresentam grande potencial para a melhoria do valor entregue ao público da farmácia. Verificou-se também que a má distribuição do seu espaço físico, a divisão dos estoques em diferentes unidades e a falta de medicamentos são origens de grandes desperdícios. Assim, foi sugerida a inclusão de outras etapas ao modelo de implantação do lean utilizado para que seja alcançada a maior participação da equipe de trabalho da farmácia e para que o lean healthcare seja implantado de maneira completa, com foco na busca da perfeição e não se limitando a solução de problemas pontuais. / The Unified Health System (SUS), the Brazilian public health system, has continuously evolved to adapt to the new challenges of the healthcare and the new requirements of the population. The offering of the high-cost medicines is between the enhancements to meet these challenges and it`s dispensation is conducted to the population through specialized medicine pharmacies like the Ribeirão Preto pharmacy, which serves the people of this city and also the people of the cities encompassed by the DRS XIII. In order to analyze the process of specialized medicines pharmacy identifying problems and proposing improvements was applied the lean methodology healthcare. Initially a survey was conducted among the users of that service aiming the definition of what was most important to them in the services provided by the pharmacy. The results show that receive all required medicines, be well oriented about the doubts, stay a short time in the queue and be well attended are the most valued items by them. From this definition, interviews with pharmacy staff and on-site observations, the value stream maps were created enabling to understand the pharmacy work process, identify the waste and aiming suggestions for improvements through the application of lean healthcare tools. After this stage, proposals were designed to improve the continuous stream, for the establishment of the pull demand and the continuous improvement. In addition, was conducted a critical analysis of the results and is possible to realize that the solutions to the problems experienced by the pharmacy features different degrees of difficulty implementation, however, offers a great potential to improve the value delivered to the pharmacy public. It was also found that the poor distribution of its physical space, the division of stocks in different units and lack of medicines are the major sources of the waste observed. Thus, was suggested the inclusion of other steps to the lean implementation model, in order to reach greater involvement of the pharmacy work team and to implement the lean healthcare completely, focusing on the pursuit of perfection and not limiting the solution of specific problems.

Unlike for legal, scientific or literary texts, it is generally considered that tourist texts do not present any difficulties that require the involvement of a professional translator. Considering the development and specialization the tourism industry has been subjected to for some years, it is strange that this point of view does not seem to change. The aim of this paper is to examine the semantic problems that are found in the translation of a specialized tourist text, as well as the techniques that are used to solve them, keeping always in mind the purpose of the target text and the different backgrounds of the presumptive readers.

This study is part of the Research Line Special Education Program Graduate Education. Its guiding question to understand what effects the discourse on assessment are brought into service by Care Specialized Education - AEE, in the conduct of conduct of teachers AEE in Florianópolis - SC. This undertaking investigative inserts into a post-structuralism approach, in which I use the lens Foucault, specifically addressing the concept of governmentality tool. The corpus of empirical research is composed of two groups of materials: documents related to legislation and evaluation reports of students served and followed the AEE, prepared by the teachers care. After the analysis of the laws, I could understand that the evaluation is produced as a possibility for identification, investigation and diagnostic categorization of the subjects of the deviation and as a mechanism of control and regulation of the conduct of the student by the teacher AEE, making students and ways of teaching performance. Then to understand how the assessment is operating driving conduct faculty, through the analysis of 194 evaluation reports produced by the teachers of the AEE in Florianopolis. Recurrences discursive found, indicate three analytical categories: "Need to diagnose / schedule and meet: Strategy driven to lead as a teacher of the AEE", "Need to standardize: teaching practices in front of the student AEE" and "Need convincing: The search for the family as a partner for the state government and learner control deviation in inclusive schools ". It was possible to show that the search for the diagnosis turns on the need for standardization as a strategy to regulate the discipline and control of risk on these subjects deviating from the norm. Finally, we have the embodiment of a relationship 'more government under government' for everyone to be and remain in school, in an order consistent with the neoliberal rationality and security policies related to education, brokered with the discourses of human rights in order to convince everyone in mobilizing for inclusion to happen. / Este estudo insere-se na Linha de Pesquisa de Educação Especial do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação. Tem como questão norteadora compreender quais efeitos dos discursos sobre avaliação são colocados em funcionamento pelo Atendimento Educacional Especializado - AEE, na condução das condutas dos professores do AEE no município de Florianópolis - SC. Tal empreendimento investigativo insere-se em uma abordagem pós-estruturalista, na qual faço uso das lentes foucaultianas, especificamente abordando o conceito ferramenta da governamentalidade. O corpus empírico da pesquisa está composto por dois grupos de materiais: documentos referentes à legislação e relatórios avaliativos dos alunos atendidos e acompanhados no AEE, elaborados pelas professoras do atendimento. Após a análise das legislações, pude compreender que a avaliação é produzida como possibilidade de identificação, investigação e categorização diagnóstica dos sujeitos do desvio e como um mecanismo de controle e regulação da conduta discente pelo professor do AEE, inventando alunos e modos de atuação docente. Em seguida, intentei compreender o modo como a avaliação está operando a condução da conduta docente, por meio da análise de 194 relatórios avaliativos produzidos pelos professores do AEE em Florianópolis. As recorrências discursivas encontradas, indicam três categorias analíticas: Necessidade de diagnosticar/marcar e conhecer: estratégia acionada para se conduzir como docente do AEE , Necessidade de normalizar: as práticas docentes frente ao aluno no AEE e Necessidade de convencimento: A busca pela família como parceira do Estado para o governamento e controle do aluno do desvio na escola inclusiva . Foi possível inferir que a busca pelo diagnóstico coloca em funcionamento a necessidade de normalização como estratégia para a regulação, o disciplinamento e o controle do risco sobre esses sujeitos desviantes da norma. Por fim, temos a materialização de uma relação de mais governo com menos governo‟ para que todos possam estar e permanecer na escola, numa ordem condizente com a racionalidade neoliberal e de seguridade das políticas voltadas à educação, agenciadas com os discursos dos direitos humanos de forma a convencer a todos na mobilização para que a inclusão aconteça.

The thesis presents a multi-aspectual analysis of simplified fiction at the B2 and C1 levels and their original counterparts. It aims to explore the simplification and language transformation performed on authentic texts to adapt them to particular CEFR levels. The thesis also endeavors to provide an insight into whether there are common linguistic features that characterize authentic and adapted texts of different levels, thus helping teachers and learners justify their choice between original and simplified texts. Based on the theoretical framework, the thesis provides an analysis of a specialized corpus of six texts which is comprised of the first chapters of the two original novels and their simplified versions adapted to the B2 and C1 levels by two different publishers. Each sample was subjected to scrutiny of selected linguistic features, thus unveiling the tendencies in the language, discourse, and information control in the graded readers. Consequently, the results of the text analysis were contrasted with CEFR to compare the actual text complexity with its assigned CEFR level. The results of the analysis seem to indicate certain discrepancies in this respect. Keywords: CEFR, specialized corpus, graded readers, authentic texts, simplification, language control, discourse control,...

This research study explored the effects of a public servants‟ strike on psychiatric patients. This is achieved through investigating the subjective lived experiences of events prior to, during and ensuing a public servants' strike. In addition, strike action within the health care sector as a worldwide phenomenon is discussed. This provides a conceptual understanding of strike action within the health care sector, as well as critical issues raised around the use of strikes as a medium of communication. During the public servants' strike of August 2010, 446 patients were discharged from a specialized psychiatric facility in the greater Gauteng region. The sample for this research was taken from this population and comprises of three (n=3) psychiatric patients, two Afrikaans speaking males and one Sotho speaking male. At the time of the interview, all three participants had been hospitalized and received further psychiatric treatment. The researcher made use of Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as the method to gather and interpret the raw data. The data is discussed within three subordinate themes, namely the subjective experiences prior to, during and ensuing the strike. In addition global themes throughout the patient‟s subjective lived experiences are discussed without sequential significance. The results from this study support current literature that strikes have a direct impact on the treatment of psychiatric patients. In addition the subjective accounts of the patients did not indicate any significant deterioration in functioning during the strike. However in subsequent months following their discharge, all of the participants experienced some form of conflict which contributed to their rehospitalisation.

The goal of financial analysis made on allowance organization which does the services in domain of health care, is to find the matter of financial insolvency. The ratios usually use for the private service are modified to be use in public sector. The results of analysis help to detect the area of entrepreneurial activity where could be problems. In the end the solution has to be suggested and simultaneously the circumstances of operation on market with health care have to be taking into account.

Située dans une perspective d’anglais de spécialité et adoptant des outils d’analyse de discours, cette thèse vise à contribuer à la caractérisation du discours environnemental entendu comme un discours spécialisé. Résultat d’une conception changée de notre environnement, les mouvements de pensée, les pratiques et les discours qui se développent dans le but de sa protection, préservation ou régénération font partie du domaine spécialisé environnemental. Ce domaine émergent, ainsi que ses composants principaux, sont définis dans cette thèse.La première partie de notre thèse présente une vision globale du domaine et de son discours. Les concepts centraux de mouvement environnemental, d’environnementalisme, d’écologie et d’écologisme y sont analysés. Nous offrons ensuite une définition du concept de discours environnemental en partant du contenu des travaux faits par différents auteurs sur cet objet et en aboutissant à la prise en compte de ses spécificités grâce aux outils élaborés dans le cadre des études d’anglais de spécialité. La deuxième partie s’attache plus particulièrement aux discours et aux pratiques des organisations au Royaume-Uni. Dans ce contexte culturel particulier, nous présentons les principales organisations qui ont un rôle à jouer dans le domaine environnemental et décrivons leurs principaux discours de communication dans le domaine en nous interrogeant notamment sur les nouveaux genres de discours, les termes spécialisés et les pratiques discursives récurrentes. L’organisation interne du domaine est également considérée avec la présentation d’une typologie des organisations et des relations entretenues entre elles ainsi que du rôle et de la spécificité des experts dans le domaine. Cette étude est complétée dans une troisième partie par une analyse descriptive d’un genre de discours jouant un rôle prééminent dans le domaine : les rapports sur la responsabilité sociale des organisations. Après avoir présenté son contexte d’apparition et sa fonction principale, nous nous interrogeons sur la représentation des acteurs du domaine offerte par l’étude de ce genre puis sur les phénomènes de normalisation générique de ces rapports d’un point de vue diachronique. / With an English for Specific Purposes perspective and adopting the methodological tools of discourse analysis, this thesis explores the characteristics of environmental discourse considered as a specialized type of discourse. As a result of a change of conception of our environment, the trends of thinking, the practices and discourses that are developing, with the aim of contributing to the protection, preservation, or regeneration of the environment have become part of the specialized domain referred to as environmental. This emerging domain and its main components are defined in this thesis.The first part of the thesis presents a global vision of the domain and of its discourse. The central concepts of the environmental movement, environmentalism, ecology and ecologism are analyzed. A definition of the concept of environmental discourse is then offered, starting with the presentation of the content of various authors' work on the object and concluding with the identification of its specificities thanks to tools elaborated in the French school of English for Specific Purposes. The second part of the thesis is devoted to the discourses and practices of organisations in the UK. We present, within this specific cultural context, the main organisations that have a role to play in the environmental domain and describe their principal environmental communication discourses with a particular focus on new genres, specialized terms and recurrent discursive practices. The internal organisation of the domain is also considered with the presentation of a typology of organisations, of the relations they maintain as well as of the role and specificities of environmental experts.The study is completed in a third part by a descriptive analysis of a genre that plays a decisive role in the domain: reports on corporate social responsibility. After having presented the context in which this type of report emerged and its main function, we question the way these reports represent the main actors of the domain and the existence and influence of generic norms in a diachronic perspective.

Cette recherche se situe au croisement de quatre domaines différents : la didactique du FOS ; l’analyse de discours ; l’autonomisation de l’apprenant et l’apprentissage sur le web. Nous avons recueilli un corpus qui nous a fourni des données permettant de concevoir des activités discursives et contextualisées exploitant le web (web-based learning, web comme outil de communication, web comme artéfact intégrant dans l’environnement d’apprentissage) pour l’apprentissage du français dans le cadre du FOS – tourisme. Nous avons choisi de mettre l’accent sur l’activité discursive parce qu’elle nous permet de répondre à deux questions : - que faut-il enseigner/apprendre dans un contexte du FOS du tourisme ? - quelles sont les caractéristiques des discours impliqués ? Notre corpus comporte deux guides imprimés sur le Vietnam (environ 1000 pages) et le discours oral des guides touristiques transcrit à partir des enregistrements dont la durée totale est d’environ 10 heures continues. Il s’agit donc à la fois de l’extraction de données dans le corpus, du transfert de ces données à la didactique et de leur réutilisation directe dans la conception des activités d’apprentissage. Le transfert consiste en l’application des conclusions tirées de l’analyse du corpus pour l’élaboration des activités discursives tandis que la réutilisation de ces données consiste en d’extractions des éléments du corpus pour les intégrer aux activités discursives. Pour analyser le corpus et pour structurer, programmer les activités discursives, nous avons fait appel au langage XML et conçu des scripts informatiques permettant son exploitation (analyse et activités d’apprentissage). Enfin, notre recherche débouche sur une perspective didactique. Nous recommandons la démarche discursive pour la conception d’un programme de formation et d’activités discursives. Nous illustrons cette démarche par des activités d’apprentissage concrètes. Il est à noter que s’il agit d’une étude exploratoire et non expérimentale. / This research lies at the intersection of four different areas: French for specific purposes; discourse analysis; learner autonomy and web based learning. We’ve collected a corpus which provided data for designing contextualized discursive activities exploiting the web (web-based learning : web as a communication tool, web as artifact integrated into the learning environment ) in the context of FOS for tourism. We chose to focus on the discursive activity because it allows us to answer two questions: - What should be taught / learned in a context of FOS for tourism ? - What are the characteristics of speech involved ? Our corpus comprises two printed travel guides on Vietnam (approximately 1000 pages) and oral discourse transcribed from records of tour guide speeches (about 10 hours in total). It is therefore both data mining in the corpus, the transfer of this data for applied linguistic and their direct reuse in the design of learning activities. The transfer is the application of the conclusions drawn from the analysis of the corpus for the development of discursive activities while the reuse of these data consists in extracting corpus elements to integrate them into discursive activities. To analyze the corpus, to structure and to program discursive activities, we used the XML and developed scripts for computer operations (analysis and learning activities ). Finally, our research leads to a didactic perspective. We recommend the discursive approach for the design of syllabus and discursive learning activities. We illustrate this approach with some learning activities. It should be noted that this is an exploratory study and not an experimental one.
