Introdução: Ser professor é estar em permanente processo de construção como pessoa, apoiado nos recursos internos e externos que se dispõem nos espaços educacionais e sociais. O professor em seu percurso de formação pode conhecer como as pessoas constroem-se e direcionar seu olhar para como se dá o convívio consigo mesmo e com o outro, tendo ciência de que não constrói seu Eu Professor isoladamente, e sim com outras pessoas. Objetivos: analisar como o professor percebe a construção de seu Eu Professor na perspectiva de Wallon e conhecer como o professor vivencia seu cotidiano na escola na condição de ser o si mesmo e o outro. Método: estudo exploratório, descritivo na vertente qualitativa. Foram realizadas 13 entrevistas com professores que ministram aulas em Curso de Enfermagem, em uma instituição de ensino privado de nível técnico superior. A técnica de análise de conteúdo utilizada neste estudo foi a análise temática. Desta análise, surgiram três categorias: 1. Construção do Eu Professor; 2. Viver o cotidiano apoiado em si mesmo e no outro e 3. Componentes da construção do Eu Professor. Resultados: as falas dos professores mostraram a relação e a interação entre todas as categorias, envolvendo os aspectos do cognitivo e do social em seu contexto de trabalho, com atenção voltada para o afetivo, no sentido do cuidado. Destaca-se a abertura para conscientização e valorização de si mesmo e do outro por meio de trocas de experiências, permeadas pela possibilidade do professor tornar-se outra pessoa, transformando a si mesmo. Conclusões: o professor deve buscar conhecer a si mesmo para se construir como pessoa. Perceber o modo como se constrói no convívio com o outro, mediante o diálogo e a interação; reconhecendo a si mesmo em diferentes movimentos de internalização do eu.<br>Introduction: Being a teacher is to be in constant process of construction as a person, from internal and external resources that are arranged in educational and social spaces.

O presente estudo teve como objetivo compreender as perspectivas do enfermeiro professor do ensino técnico de enfermagem, em relação ao seu trabalho, bem como a sua identidade profissional, considerando as variáveis sócio-demográficas e enfatizando a multicontextualização dessa prática. Para isso, esta pesquisa de caráter qualitativo baseou-se em um estudo descritivo exploratório. Elegemos como sujeitos da pesquisa todos os enfermeiros professores do Centro Estadual de Educação Tecnológica Paula Souza, dos 40 municípios do Estado de São Paulo, que lecionam para o curso Técnico de Enfermagem. Para melhor operacionalização, a coleta de dados foi dividida em duas partes. Na primeira, visando traçar o perfil do grupo pesquisado, elaboramos uma entrevista semi-estruturada, obtendo resposta de 213 dos sujeitos da pesquisa, ou seja, de 62,8% do total. Na segunda parte do estudo, encaminhamos quatorze questões abertas relacionadas aos aspectos pedagógicos do ensino técnico de enfermagem para 40 enfermeiros professores, sendo um sujeito de cada Unidade Escolar. Deste questionário, recebemos respostas de 28 sujeitos, o que corresponde a 70% dos pesquisados. Concluímos que o enfermeiro professor é seriamente comprometido com o seu papel, esforçando-se em assumir integralmente a sua função de docente, embora transpareçam algumas lacunas em relação ao preparo pedagógico para conseguir dar conta das constantes mudanças e da evolução tecnológica num mundo globalizado. A sua identidade profissional é singular, e construída continuamente, dependendo de sua história de vida pessoal, bagagem cultural e do empenho em buscar o aprimoramento, tanto como profissional quanto como ser humano. Assim, a transformação identitária do enfermeiro professor ocorre de forma constante, na medida em que procura inovar sua prática no contexto da realidade social.<br>The aim of this study was to understand the perspectives of the nursing teacher in the technical teaching, considering work and professional identity, taking into account the social-demographical variables and emphasizing the multi-contextualization of this practice. To this end, this qualitative research was based on a descriptive and exploratory study. We have chosen, as subjects of this research, all the nursing teachers in the Paula Souza State Center of Technical Education, from the 40 cities in the state of São Paulo which offer the Nursing technical course. For better operating, the data collecting was divided in two parts. In the first, we have obtained through semi-structured interview 213 responses from the subjects, or 62,8 percent. In the second part of the study, we sent to 40 teachers, one of each School Unit, fourteen open questions related to the pedagogical aspects of the nursing technical teaching. We received 28 responses, which is 70 percent of the researched subjects. We have concluded that the nursing teacher is seriously compromised to his or her role, making every effort to assume integrally the teaching function, despite some blank spaces in the pedagogical basis that would allow the teacher to deal with the constant changes and the technological evolution in the globalized world. The teacher’s professional identity is singular and continually built, depending on his or her personal life story, background knowledge and efforts to be always seeking for improvement as a professional and as a human being. Thus, the nursing teacher’s identity transformation is permanent as he or she tries to innovate in his or her practice in the social reality context.

Trata-se de um estudo sobre O significado da educação contínua para o professor do ensino profissionalizante do nível médio de enfermagem . O objetivo geral da pesquisa foi compreender o significado da Educação Contínua para o professor do Ensino Profissionalizante de Nível Técnico de Enfermagem e os objetivos específicos foram: identificar a percepção do professor em relação a educação contínua; identificar os fatores facilitadores e as dificuldades que os professores enfrentam para realizar a educação contínua. No estudo, consideramos a educação contínua importante ferramenta para o aprimoramento, aperfeiçoamento do professor no processo de ensino aprendizagem, o qual propicia o seu desenvolvimento de forma ampla para transformar a si mesmo, seu grupo e a sociedade em que o professor atua. Com relação ao delineamento metodológico, é um estudo de natureza exploratória - descritiva, utilizando a abordagem de pesquisa qualitativa. A técnica utilizada para análise dos resultados foi baseada em Bardin. O estudo foi desenvolvido em uma escola de Educação Profissional Técnica de Nível Médio em Enfermagem, instituição particular, situada na zona leste de São Paulo, mantida por uma congregação religiosa. Os sujeitos do estudo foram 10 enfermeiros professores, que compõem o quadro de docentes da escola. Os dados foram coletados utilizando-se da técnica de entrevista, contendo uma questão aberta, gravada e transcrita na íntegra. Dos discursos dos entrevistados emergiram quatro categorias: a importância da educação contínua para o professor do ensino profissionalizante de enfermagem, a educação contínua na percepção do professor, fatores que dificultam e facilitam á educação contínua. Acreditamos que para o professor conseguir realizar a educação continua, é necessário uma construção coletiva, com momentos em que o professor possa conhecer-se e exercitar a reflexão de si e do outro. Sendo assim, possibilitar-se-á uma educação participativa, com qualidade no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, refletindo na sua relação com os discentes, com os outros docentes e com a direção<br>This is a study about The meaning of continuing education for high-school-level professional nursing program teachers. The general objective of the research was to understand the meaning of continuing education for high-school-level professional nursing program teachers, and the specific objectives were: to identify teachers perception of continuing education; to identify facilitating factors and barriers teachers face in pursuing continuing education. In the study, we considered continuing education as an important tool for teachers improvement in the teaching and learning process, which contributes to a broad development and allows him/her to transform him/herself, his/her group and the community where he/she works. With regard to the methodology, this is an exploratory/descriptive study that uses the qualitative research approach. The technique used to analyze the results was based on Bardin. The study was developed at a private High-School-Level Professional Nursing School located on the East side of São Paulo, which is run by a religious entity. The study subjects were 10 nursing teachers who are members of the schools faculty. Data were collected through interview with an open question, which was recorded and transcribed in full. Four categories resulted from respondents answers: the importance of continuing education for professional nursing teachers; teachers perception of continuing education; facilitators to continuing education; and barriers to continuing education. We believe that teachers continuing education is the result of collective action, with moments where the teacher is able to know him/herself and reflect on him/herself and the others. This will enable a participatory education, with quality in the teaching and learning process, which will reflect on his/her relationship with the students, the other teachers and management

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo geral analisar o cotidiano do enfermeiro professor em um curso técnico em enfermagem de uma escola técnica estadual paulista. Para tanto buscou-se identificar as dificuldades apontadas na prática pedagógica pelo professor enfermeiro no ensino técnico, analisar os recursos que utilizam diante das dificuldades e analisar as soluções apontadas diante dos desafios encontrados. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, com abordagem dialética, com referencial teórico da Abordagem Histórico-Cultural de Vigotski. Foi desenvolvida por meio de grupos focais com onze professores de uma escola técnica pública do interior de São Paulo. Os professores foram divididos em dois grupos, sendo que cada grupo teve três encontros para discussões que foram gravados em áudio, e posteriormente transcritos. Os resultados constituíram cinco unidades temáticas: Formação Pedagógica; Planejamento; Relação Professor-aluno; Fazer x Saber: Construção histórica da Enfermagem e condições de trabalho; e Ressignificando a prática pedagógica. Os resultados apontam para a importância da formação docente de enfermagem no desempenho dos profissionais da enfermagem da área técnica. Foram identificadas situações que dificultam o processo de ensino aprendizado, e no decorrer dos encontros, os participantes também trouxeram propostas de superação dos conflitos, por meio de interações em grupo, evidenciando a criação de um espaço importante de reflexão, discussão e análise do cotidiano dos professores. Os resultados podem contribuir para professores e coordenadores dos cursos técnicos em enfermagem em suas práticas, na medida em que apontam que as melhores possibilidades de transformações envolvem os próprios professores, suas experiências, suas reflexões, aliadas ao estudo e a novas perspectivas. Qualquer transformação almejada na área deve ser pensada envolvendo os profissionais docentes, deve ser feita a partir deles e com eles, agregando-se novos conhecimentos<br>This research has as main objective to analyze the daily life of the nurse teacher in a technical nursing course in a state public technical school. For this purpose, we sought to identify the difficulties in teaching practice pointed by the nurse teacher in technical education, analyze the resources they use in face of difficulties and analyze the solutions presented before the challenges encountered. This is a qualitative research, with dialectical approach, and the theoretical background of cultural-historical approach of Vygotsky. It was developed through focal groups with eleven teachers at a public technical school in the countryside of São Paulo state. Teachers were divided into two groups, each group had three meetings for discussions which were recorded on audio and later transcribed. The results constitute five thematic units: Teacher Training; Planning; Teacher-Student relationship; Do versus Know: Historical Construction of Nursing and working conditions; and Redefining the pedagogical practice. The results point to the importance of teacher education in nursing performance of nursing professionals from the technical area. Situations that hinder the process of teaching learning were identified, and during the meetings, participants also brought proposals to overcome the conflicts through group interaction, highlighting the creation of an important space for reflection, discussion and analysis of the teachers\' everyday lives. The results can help teachers and coordinators of technical courses in nursing in their practices, as far as they show that the best possibilities for transformations involve teachers themselves, their experiences, their reflections, allied to the study and new perspectives. Any desired change in the area must be thought of involving professional teachers, must be taken from them and with them, adding it to new knowledge

Thus, the guiding questions of this research are: How does the nurse become a teacher? How does the nurse teacher relates to the university teaching? Based on these questions, this study has the following objectives: to understand, from the perception of surveyed nurses, how they became teachers; analyze the nurse's entry into higher education teaching; and check, from the perception of the surveyed teachers, their teaching practices. For this, qualitative research was used, which led to a literature study of Nursing and Education, specifically considering the historical context and the legislation of the two areas. As far as data collection is concerned, a field research was conducted in two public higher education institutions, besides the selection of research subjects - ten nursing teachers - to carry out a semi-structured interview. In the data analysis, were listed four categories, which were the following: identification with teaching from experience; the relationship between theory and nursing practice in teaching practice; the pedagogical foundation and the identity of the nurse teacher, who brings as subcategory the casualization of teaching. As a result, this research pointed out as important factors in the nursing process to become a teacher: the experiential knowledge; the theoretical / practical knowledge in Nursing; the theoretical / practical knowledge in Education and training of teacher identity in the course of two activities, nurse and teacher. Such factors show that the nurse teacher turns into university teaching through a gradual and continuous process, starting in their family and school experiences, and goes forward at the university, when he directs his actions to research and monitoring. The internship and residency in hospitals schools, even as a student, appear as motivational experience for the future nursing teacher. Postgraduate courses contribute as an important source of knowledge for the development of their teaching activities. However, we find that is in the development of teaching activities that the nurse teachers see their professional identity and proceeds to relate to university teaching as a professional committed to the ideals of education, as well as with the educational process of young nurses.<br>Esta dissertação de mestrado tem como princípio fundamental a relação da Enfermagem com a Educação, duas áreas do conhecimento que consubstanciam a formação do professor enfermeiro, de modo que o objeto desta investigação é a docência universitária do professor enfermeiro. Dessa forma, as perguntas norteadoras deste trabalho de pesquisa são: Como o enfermeiro se torna docente? Como o professor enfermeiro se relaciona com a docência universitária? Com base nessas indagações, este estudo apresenta como objetivos: compreender, a partir da percepção dos enfermeiros pesquisados, como eles se tornaram docentes; analisar o ingresso do enfermeiro na docência do ensino superior; e verificar, a partir da percepção dos professores pesquisados, suas práticas pedagógicas. Para tanto, utilizou-se a abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa, o que direcionou para um estudo da literatura sobre Enfermagem e Educação, considerando especificamente o contexto histórico e a legislação das referidas áreas. No que se refere à coleta de dados, foi realizada pesquisa de campo em duas instituições de ensino superior públicas, além da seleção dos sujeitos da pesquisa, dez professores enfermeiros, para realização da entrevista semiestruturada. Na análise dos dados, foram elencadas quatro categorias, sendo elas as seguintes: identificação com a docência a partir de experiência vivida; a relação entre teoria e prática do enfermeiro na prática docente; o embasamento pedagógico do professor enfermeiro e a identidade do professor enfermeiro, que traz como subcategoria a precarização do trabalho docente. Como resultado, esta investigação apontou como sendo fatores preponderantes no processo do enfermeiro tornar-se professor: os saberes experienciais; o conhecimento teórico/prático em Enfermagem; o conhecimento teórico/prático em Educação e a formação da identidade docente no exercício das duas atividades, enfermeiro e professor. Tais fatores demonstraram que o professor enfermeiro transforma-se em docente universitário por meio de um processo gradativo e contínuo, que tem início nas suas experiências familiares e escolares, e avança na universidade, quando ele direciona suas ações para a pesquisa e a monitoria. O estágio e a residência em hospitais escolas, ainda como aluno, aparecem como experiências motivacionais para o futuro professor enfermeiro. Os cursos de pós-graduação contribuem como importante fonte de conhecimento para o desenvolvimento de suas atividades docentes. No entanto, constatamos que é no desenvolvimento das atividades docentes que o professor enfermeiro compreende a sua identidade docente e passa a se relacionar com a docência universitária como um profissional comprometido com os ideais da educação, bem como, com o processo formativo de jovens enfermeiros.

As relações interpessoais são essenciais em todos os segmentos da vida humana. Nas escolas de enfermagem estas relações posicionam-se como elementos fundamentais para o desenvolvimento dos alunos e para sua formação profissional na área da saúde. Este estudo de natureza qualitativa teve por objetivo analisar a percepção dos professores acerca da relação interpessoal professor-aluno no ensino profissional técnico em enfermagem. O cenário constituiu-se de uma Escola de ensino profissional técnico em enfermagem localizada no município de São Paulo. A coleta de dados realizou-se com grupo focal e empregou-se a análise de conteúdo. Os achados apontaram quatro categorias: Relacionamento interpessoal Professor-Aluno, Atitudes de Professores e Alunos, Perfis de Professores e Alunos e Compromisso com Aprendizagem. Os resultados mostraram que os professores vivenciam a relação interpessoal professor-aluno, com atenção voltada para um aprofundamento na própria prática pedagógica, contudo nem sempre como um processo educativo pautado em princípios e valores. Também referem que são escassos os espaços para diálogos e reflexões acerca de questões relativas à qualidade da relação interpessoal entre professores e alunos. Os professores apontaram que muitas vezes o perfil do aluno não condiz como aquele que busca ser um profissional da saúde e reconheceram o impacto que o relacionamento interpessoal e suas atitudes têm na formação dos alunos do ensino técnico profissional em enfermagem. Conclui-se que a atitude do professor e sua influência no aprendizado atitudinal do aluno foi evidenciada nos achados repercutindo no futuro profissional, bem como os professores reconhecem que sua percepção na relação professor-aluno é pautada em posturas individuais e essencialmente subjetivas e de difícil reconhecimento no desenvolvimento do processo educativo<br>Interpersonal relationships are essential to all segments of any human life. At nursing vocational schools these relationships are positioned as necessary factors to the students development and to their professional growth in the healthcare area. This qualitative study aimed to analyze the perceptions of teachers about the interpersonal relationship between teacher-student in nursing vocational education. The scenario consisted of a nursing vocational school at the city of São Paulo. The data collection was conducted with a focal group and the technique of content analysis was used to analyze it. The present findings indicate four categories: Interpersonal relationship between teacher and student; Teachers and Studentss Attitudes; Teachers and students profiles; and Students and their commitment to learning. The results showed that teachers experience the interpersonal relationship between teacher-student, with their attention toward deepening in their own teaching practice, though not always as an educational process guided by principles and values. They also noted that there are few spaces for dialogue and reflection about issues concerning the quality of interpersonal relationships between teachers and students. Teachers pointed out that often the student\'s profile is not consistent as the one who seeks to be a health professional and recognized the impact that their interpersonal relationships and attitudes in the formation of students in nursing vocational education. Its conclude is that the teacherss attitudes and their influence on students attitudinal learning was evidenced in the findings, impacting the future professional, and the teachers recognize that their perception in the teacher-student relationship is grounded at individual attitudes that are essentially subjectives and difficult to recognize in the development of the educational process

This is a cross-sectional study with quantitative approach. Aims to investigate the occupational stress of university teachers in temporary positions at the Center for Health Sciences, Federal University of Santa Maria, from the demand-control model proposed by Karasek (1979). Data collection was made by filling, by the teacher of a research protocol, divided into two parts: the first contained the elements for the characterization of the population, and the second was the short version of the Job Stress Scale. The population consisted of 25 substitute teachers divided into 12 departments of the Center for Health Sciences was observed predominantly female (56%), mean age 27 years, unmarried (60%) and without children (56 %). Most have post-graduate course (60%), occupies the position of seven months to one year (60%), has two or more jobs (56%) and meets weekly workload of 60 hours (52%). As for demand and control variables, 56% of teachers had scores compatible with high demand and 60% with low control over their work. Regarding the social support variable, 68% had scores of low social support, being 40% of teachers referred low social support and low job control.There was relationship between being male, having low social support and low job control. It was observed that 36% of teachers are in situations of high wear. Given the above, the results of this study confirm the first hypothesis of Karasek's model, which can set in the teachers' greater exposure to stress.<br>Trata-se de um estudo transversal, com abordagem quantitativa. Tem como objetivo investigar o estresse ocupacional dos professores universitários em cargos temporários no Centro de Ciências da Saúde, da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, a partir do modelo demanda-controle proposto por Karasek (1979). A coleta dos dados se deu pelo preenchimento, por parte do professor, de um protocolo de pesquisa, dividido em duas partes: a primeira continha os elementos para a caracterização da população, e a segunda consistia na versão resumida da Job Stress Scale. A população constituiu-se de 25 professores substitutos alocados em 12 departamentos do Centro de Ciências da Saúde. Observou-se predomínio do sexo feminino (56%), com idade média de 27 anos, sem companheiro (60%) e sem filhos (56%). A maioria possui curso de pós-graduação (60%), ocupa o cargo de sete meses a um ano (60%), possui dois ou mais empregos (56%) e cumpre carga horária semanal total de 60 horas (52%). Quanto às variáveis demanda e controle, 56% dos professores obtiveram escores compatíveis com alta demanda e 60% com baixo controle sobre o seu trabalho. No que se refere a variável apoio social, 68% obteve escores de baixo apoio social, sendo que, 40% dos professores refere baixo apoio social e baixo controle sobre o trabalho. Verificou-se relação entre ser homem, ter baixo apoio social e baixo controle sobre o trabalho. Observou-se que 36% dos professores encontram-se na situação de alto desgaste. Diante do exposto, os resultados deste estudo confirmam a primeira hipótese do modelo de Karasek, o que pode configurar em maior exposição dos professores ao estresse.

The target of this assignment is to check the real values attached by the nurses as educators or professional nursing professors. The research of quantitative approach was carried out in Tecsoma College of Health, Paracatu, Minas Gerais, in 2003. Five nursing professors were interviewed and answered some opened questions. Two ranks were taken in account in order to analyse the datas: a) motivation that leads the nurse to work as professor; b) the relation: nursing/education/health. The assignment showed up the gap in nursing background concerned about education, consequently the nursing professor usually doesn t know how proficient he is to face educative role in teaching in schools or out of. Schools. Such problems must be faced and na important way is pointed: the background that the nurses-educators-professors get from the Nursing Universitary degree or even from updating courses must be checked and must focus education and health in social context.<br>Este trabalho nasceu da inquieta??o acerca da forma??o do enfermeiro para o trabalho educativo.

Many teachers, as they begin their educational activities in the field of health, do not attend courses to achieve pedagogical qualification or relevant undergraduate courses in education. In one s professional development he/she becomes a teacher when he/she identifies himself/herself with a discipline he/she became fond of while attending an undergraduate course and so he/she ends by performing the function of a teacher based on the traditional teaching-learning process. In spite of the growing number of schools and high level technical professionals in the field of nursing in Brazil, it seems that people are not concerned with the quality of their teaching, since few researches have been carried out concerning those professionals and their background development. In face of that issue, this study was carried out to raise the representation of senior high school nursing teachers about their development process. The research at issue was based on the theory of Social Representations, characterized as a descriptive exploratory quantitative-qualitative based approach. The subjects studied in the research comprised 12 (twelve) nursing teachers at senior high school level working in a private school located in Presidente Prudente. A questionnaire was applied presenting open and closed questions, after asking for their authorization, an explanation about its social and academic contributions, and the signing of the Term of Free and Conscious Consent. The information about the characterization of the participants was presented as a quantitative-based research. The qualitative data collected were interpreted in the light of content analysis. The outcomes show that the real development process undergone by the nursing teacher was represented by his/her experience in realizing himself/herself as such. Most of the teachers believe that proficiency in teaching involves putting in motion skills such as knowledge, attitudes, and ingenuity. Concerning the teaching practice, they try to pass on proficiency to their students, resources such as the capacity to articulate one s wisdom; they use group dynamics, reading and research as teaching procedures, and they carry out a formative and global assessment. From such outcomes, some possibilities stand out, items such as teaching qualification for those who are in need of it, the school seriously engaged in furthering its teachers qualification, and activities which favor the association between scientific knowledge, ingenuity, and attitude centered in the student s reality.<br>O presente estudo tem como tema o processo de construção do ser professor em Enfermagem e suas atividades pedagógicas em tempos de mudanças na educação e na sociedade moderna. Muitos docentes, ao iniciarem suas atividades educacionais na área da saúde, não realizam cursos de capacitação pedagógica ou pós-graduação no ensino. Em sua trajetória profissional vira professor ao identificar-se com uma disciplina que gostou enquanto era graduando e acaba exercendo a docência baseado no processo de ensino-aprendizagem tradicional. Apesar do crescente número de escolas e profissionais de nível técnico em Enfermagem no Brasil, parece não ocorrer muita preocupação com a qualidade de seu ensino, pois poucas pesquisas foram encontradas sobre esses profissionais e sua formação. Diante disso, este estudo tem como objetivo verificar a representação dos docentes de ensino médio de Enfermagem sobre a construção do ser professor. A pesquisa teve como referencial a Teoria das Representações Sociais, sendo caracterizada como descritiva e exploratória, de abordagem quanti-qualitativa. Os sujeitos pesquisados foram doze (12) docentes enfermeiros do ensino médio de Enfermagem de uma instituição particular da cidade de Presidente Prudente. Foi aplicado um questionário, contendo questões abertas e fechadas, após a solicitação de autorização à instituição, explicação sobre as contribuições sociais e acadêmicas da pesquisa e assinatura do Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. As informações sobre a caracterização dos participantes foram apresentadas sob a forma quantitativa. Os dados qualitativos coletados foram trabalhados à luz da análise de conteúdo. Os resultados revelaram que a construção real do ser professor em enfermagem foi representada por sua experiência de estar professor. A maioria dos professores acredita que as competências para ensinar envolvem a mobilização dos saberes como conhecimento, atitude e habilidade. Em relação à prática docente, eles buscam desenvolver competências nos alunos, como a capacidade de articulação dos saberes; utilizam a dinâmica em grupo, a leitura e a pesquisa como procedimentos de ensino; e realizam a avaliação formativa e global. A partir desses resultados, destacam-se algumas possibilidades, como a capacitação docente para os que ainda não a possuem, a instituição comprometida com a formação docente e o incentivo às atividades que fortaleçam ainda mais a associação entre conhecimento científico, habilidade e atitude adequada à realidade do aluno.

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2011-02-22<br>No ensino sistematizado em Enfermagem, o Enfermeiro assume o papel de responsável pela formação de novos profissionais, tanto no ensino superior como no profissionalizante em Enfermagem. Outros profissionais podem atuar em disciplinas de conteúdos básicos, porém os conteúdos técnicos pertinentes a categoria profissional são executados exclusivamente pelo Enfermeiro. Partindo deste pressuposto, objetivou-se no estudo desvelar o preparo pedagógico de enfermeiros professores de um curso técnico profissionalizante em enfermagem, identificando as estratégias pedagógicas por eles utilizadas em sua atuação docente. Para alcançar o objetivo proposto, optou-se pela pesquisa de caráter exploratório, descritivo com abordagem qualitativa ancorada na trajetória metodológica da análise de conteúdo descrita por Bardin, seguindo o modelo proposto por Szymanski. Fizeram parte da amostra dezoito professores de Enfermagem. A primeira questão norteadora sobre o preparo pedagógico do Enfermeiro possibilitou o emergir de quatro categorias que traduzem o cotidiano do trabalho, como um local de aprendizado, a realização de estratégias pessoais para sua atualização e as contribuições Graduação e Pós-Graduação com este preparo. A segunda questão norteadora aborda as estratégias pedagógicas utilizadas na sua prática, dando origem a duas categorias, a primeira é relativa às divergências conceituais do que vem a ser estratégias pedagógicas, pois um grupo relata a utilização de recursos materiais como estratégias, além de parte dos sujeitos da pesquisa utilizar estratégias conservadoras e outros inovadoras havendo assim, uma dicotomia entre os pares. Conclui-se que no cenário investigado, o Enfermeiro tem Licenciatura, contudo, os resultados nos remetem a uma reflexão sobre as fragilidades do conhecimento pedagógico deste profissional que atua na docência. Tal fato permite inferir que, enquanto enfermeiros educadores, é essencial o preparo pedagógico, possibilitando a este adequar-se as práticas pedagógicas e assim atuar na formação de egressos com perfil que atenda às Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Técnico Profissionalizante e em consequência as necessidades mercadológicas que almejam por um profissional que possa ter conhecimentos, habilidades e atitudes, norteados por valores e princípios éticos.<br>In the education systematized in Nursing, the Nurse assumes the paper of responsible by the formation of new professionals, so much in the higher education as in the vocational one in Nursing. Others professionals can act in disciplines of basic contents; however the technical contents concerning professional category are performed exclusively by the Nurse. Starting from this assumption, objective itself in the study uncover the pedagogical preparation of nurses professors of a vocational technical course in nursing, identifying the pedagogical strategies by them utilized in their educational action. For achieve the objective proposed, opted by the research of descriptive, exploratory character with qualitative approach anchored in the methodological path of the analysis of content described by Bardin, following the model proposed by Szymanski. Eighteen professors of Nursing were part of the sample. To first guiding question about the pedagogical preparation of the Nurse enabled emerge of four categories that translate the routine one of the work, as localities of training, the achievement of personal strategies for its updating and the contributions Graduation and Post-Graduation with this I prepare. To second guiding question approaches the pedagogical strategies utilized in his practical one, giving rise to two categories, to first is relative to the divergences you evaluate than turns out to be pedagogical strategies, therefore a group relates the stuff resources utilization as strategies, beyond part of the subjects of the research utilize conservative strategies and others innovative having like this, a dichotomy between the pair. Concluded that in the setting investigated, the Nurse has Degree, however, the results remit us to a reflection about the fragilities of the pedagogical knowledge of this professional that acts in the teaching. Such fact is going to infer that, educators nurses while, is essential the pedagogical preparation, enabling to this adapt itself the pedagogical practices and like this act in the formation of graduate with profile that attend to the National Curricular Directives of the Vocational Technical Education and in consequence the marketing needs that long for a professional that can have knowledge, abilities and attitudes, guided by values and ethical beginnings.<br>TEDE

A comunicação é um processo que se encontra internamente relacionado com a expressividade. Há profissionais que usam demasiadamente a comunicação e a expressividade, como é o caso do professor, que atua transmitindo informações as quais devem chegar de maneira efetiva aos seus alunos. O objetivo geral do estudo foi investigar a expressividade do professor universitário de enfermagem ministrando aula, por meio do julgamento dos alunos. Trata-se de estudo descritivo com abordagem quantitativa, realizado em uma instituição de ensino superior de enfermagem de uma universidade pública. Alunos matriculados (141) nos cursos de bacharelado e licenciatura de enfermagem, distribuídos em três turmas, realizaram a avaliação da expressividade de um professor da instituição, sendo que este possuía experiência profissional, estava em atividade regular e não era conhecido por este alunado. A avaliação da expressividade foi realizada por meio de seis minutos de filmagem de uma aula ministrada por esse professor. Esta mesma filmagem foi avaliada por três experts fonoaudiólogos, especialistas em voz e experientes em expressividade. A pesquisa contou com quatro fases (preparo dos instrumentos, no qual foi utilizado protocolo de avaliação fonoaudiológica e instrumento para os alunos; questionário para avaliação do aluno, adaptado segundo o protocolo de avaliação fonoaudiológica; avaliação da confiabilidade deste protocolo por três experts fonoaudiólogos; filmagem do professor participante a ser avaliado). O resultado mostrou que os experts apresentaram, praticamente, poucas discordâncias entre si em relação à avaliação da expressividade do professor, pois são especialistas e possuem experiência profissional em radio e televisão. Quanto à identificação da expressividade do professor segundo a avaliação de alunos e dos experts, em relação aos elementos: tipo de voz, pitch, esforço vocal, loudness, articulação, expressão facial, gestos e postura corporal, os resultados mostraram que as alternativas escolhidas pela maioria dos alunos foram significativamente maiores que as demais e concordantes com a maioria dos experts. Os elementos \"ênfase\", \"demonstra experiência\" e \"o que chamou atenção no vídeo\" não foram possíveis de comparação, porque não houve equivalência entre os instrumentos utilizados para a avaliação dos experts e dos alunos. O item \"pausa na fala\" não apresentou significância estatística entre a avaliação das respostas dos alunos, quando comparadas aos experts. Quanto às diferenças de avaliações entre as três turmas entre si, estas apresentaram poucas divergências entre elas. Conclui-se que o julgamento do aluno sobre as habilidades expressivas do professor de enfermagem é compatível com a avaliação dos experts fonoaudiólogos, mostrando que os alunos da universidade pública são mais que meros espectadores e pessoas capazes de avaliar, com propriedade, o professor.<br>Communication is a process that is internally related to expressiveness. There are professionals who use too much communication and expressiveness, as is the case of a teacher, which operates by transmitting information to effectively reach their students. The overall objective of this study was to investigate the expressiveness of a university professor of a nursing school, teaching a class by the means of the assessment of students. This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach, performed in an institution of higher education in nursing at a public university. Enrolled students (141) in the nursing major, divided into three classes, carried out the assessment of expressiveness of a teacher of the previously mentioned institution, which whom had professional experience. This teacher was in regular activity and was not known by this student body. The assessment of expressiveness was performed by the means of a six- minute footage of a class taught by this teacher. This same footage was reviewed by three expert speech pathologists, voice specialists and experts in expressiveness. The research included four phases (preparation of instruments, by being the protocol of clinical assessment used and tool for the students; students\' questionnaire to evaluate the teacher, adjusted in accordance with the protocol of clinical assessment, reliability evaluation of the protocol by three expert audiologists; footage of the teacher participant to be evaluated). The outcome has shown that there were virtually very few disagreements between the experts regarding the evaluation of the expressiveness of the teacher, since they are specialists and have experience in radio and television. Regarding the identification of the expressiveness of the teacher according to the evaluation of students and experts in relation to the elements: voice type, pitch, vocal effort, loudness, articulation, facial expression, gestures and body posture, the outcome showed that the alternatives chosen by most students were significantly higher than the others and consistent with most experts. The elements \"emphasis\", \"the showing of experience\" and \"what drew attention in the video\" were not possible to compare, because there was no equivalence between the instruments used for the evaluation of experts and students. The item \"pause in the speech\" hasn\'t shown statistical significance between the assessment of students\' responses, when compared to experts. When considering differences in ratings among the three classes together, this study showed that they differ a little from each other. It has been noticed that the assessment of the student on the expressiveness abilities of the teacher of nursing is consistent with the assessments of speech experts, showing that students at public universities are more than mere spectators but people can properly evaluate the teacher.

The discussion of the processes of identity formation was based on studies of Placco Vera de Souza, nationally, and Maurice Tardif and Claude Dubar, internationally. In an exploratory stage, we applied a semi-structured questionnaire to five teachers of graduate studies in Nursing and held a semi-directive with two of the participants in order to refine the data collection instruments. The main research made use of interviews with seven teachers of undergraduate degree in Nursing from the same institution. The data from both the exploratory study as the primary research were analyzed with reference to the assumptions of systematic content analysis by Laurence Bardin and Maria Laura P. B. Franco. The results indicated that nurses become teachers driven by the desire to teach and share knowledge, job opportunities, flexible hours and completion of professional income, and are influenced by their teachers and family formation trajectory. The characteristics valued by them at a teacher were: mastery of content taught, especially the technical knowledge, the continuous pursuit of knowledge, ethics, professionalism, humanization. It is noted a preponderance of the characteristics that involve the knowledge of the content at the expense of pedagogical issues. The reflection and concern about Teaching are present in their speech, as the constant quest to overcome the difficulties in the profession. They consider Teaching profession as a role of prominence in the same way that Nursing. Another factor highlighted in the responses was the strong representation of nurses in the professional career of respondents. In their reports, it was revealed that the construction as teachers occurs continuously throughout the career, which is evident in their speech when they claim to be better teachers now than earlier, despite being a prickly walk initially, it became pleasurable and significant over time. It is emphasized here the importance of valuing the knowledge of the teacher, because only starting with this knowledge, plus theoretically and conceptually working it, teachers will be able to expand the understanding of the work process in health that, now a days, has become highly complex.<br>O presente estudo foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de compreender a construção da identidade profissional de enfermeiros docentes do curso de graduação em Enfermagem de uma instituição privada localizada na cidade de São Paulo. Para tanto, discute os processos de constituição identitária pautado nos estudos de Vera Placco de Souza, no âmbito nacional, e de Maurice Tardif e Claude Dubar, no âmbito internacional. Em uma etapa exploratória, foi aplicado um questionário semi-estruturado a cinco professoras da pós-graduação em Enfermagem e realizada uma entrevista semi-diretiva com dois desses participantes com o objetivo de refinar os instrumentos de coleta. A pesquisa principal fez uso de entrevista realizada com sete professores do curso de graduação em Enfermagem da mesma instituição. Os dados, tanto do estudo exploratório como da pesquisa principal, foram analisados tendo como referência os pressupostos da análise de conteúdo sistematizados por Laurence Bardin e Maria Laura P. B. Franco. Os resultados indicaram que os enfermeiros se tornam professores impelidos pelo desejo de ensinar e de compartilhar conhecimentos, oportunidade de trabalho, flexibilidade de horário e complementação da renda profissional, e são influenciados por professores de sua trajetória formativa e por familiares. As características valorizadas por eles em um professor foram: o domínio do conteúdo ensinado, sobretudo o saber técnico; a busca contínua do conhecimento; ética; profissionalismo; humanização. Nota-se um predomínio das características que envolvem o conhecimento dos conteúdos em detrimento das questões pedagógicas. A reflexão e preocupação com a Docência estão presentes em suas falas, assim como a busca constante para a superação das dificuldades existentes na profissão. Eles consideram a Docência uma profissão com um papel social de destaque do mesmo modo que a Enfermagem. Outro fator destacado nas respostas foi a forte representação do enfermeiro na carreira profissional dos pesquisados. Em seus relatos, foi possível perceber que sua construção como docentes ocorre de forma contínua ao longo da carreira, o que fica evidenciado em suas falas quando afirmam serem melhores professores agora do que no início de sua trajetória profissional e que, apesar de ser uma caminhada espinhosa inicialmente, tornou-se prazerosa e significativa com o passar do tempo. Ressalta-se aqui a importância de se valorizar os saberes do professor, partindo deles e trabalhando-os teórica e conceitualmente para que o docente amplie a compreensão do processo de ensino em saúde que, no mundo contemporâneo, tornou-se de alta complexidade.

O professor de enfermagem tem diante de si a responsabilidade da formação do enfermeiro, que está voltada para o conhecimento das competências e habilidades gerais, como prevê as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais para os cursos de graduação em enfermagem. Essa dissertação buscou, a partir de um programa de Mestrado Profissional em Ensino na Saúde (MPES), compreender como a formação stricto sensu profissional influencia na atuação do enfermeiro professor no ensino superior de enfermagem. O estudo reconhece a importância da formação pedagógica do docente e aponta para a necessidade desse profissional atentar-se à questão conteudista do ensino, buscando trabalhar o conhecimento de forma a agregar à vivência do aluno. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, de cunho descritivo, cujos dados foram coletados por análise documental e entrevista semiestruturada, e tratados pelo método de triangulação dos dados. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram os mestrandos das primeiras turmas do MPES, da Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF), que não atuavam na docência anteriormente ao início do curso. O referencial desta pesquisa fundamenta-se na teoria de Maurice Tardif e Selma Garrido Pimenta. Os resultados da investigação apontam vários aspectos que potencializam o pressuposto desenhado pela pesquisa, de que a formação stricto sensu profissional contribui para a atualização e capacitação permanente do enfermeiro-professor. O produto originado deste estudo foi a realização de um vídeo, apresentando e problematizando as competências pedagógicas apontadas por Celso Antunes como necessárias à formação do professor crítico e reflexivo.<br>The pedagogical training of nursing teacher in higher education has been contemplated in the academic current debate, in the sense to enhance the teaching work, meaning endow this professor of analytical perspectives that will help him understand the historical, social, cultural and organizational contexts in which gives his teaching activity. The professor of nursing is faced with the responsibility of nursing education, which is focused on the knowledge of the skills and general abilities, as provided for the National Curriculum Guidelines for undergraduate nursing courses. This dissertation aimed, from a Professional Master's in Education in Health (PMEH), understand how professional training the stricto sensu influences the performance of the nursing teacher in higher nursing education. The study recognizes the importance of pedagogical training of teachers and points to the need of these professionals pay attention to the education based on transmission of contents, seeking to work knowledge in order to add to the experience of the student. It is a qualitative research of descriptive nature, with data collected by document analysis and semi-structured interviews, and data processed by the triangulation method. The research subjects were the master’s students of the first classes of PMEH, the Fluminense Federal University (FFU) that not worked in teaching prior to the start of the course. The referential of this research is based on the Maurice Tardif and Selma Garrido Pimenta theory. The results of the research points to several aspects that enhance the assumption drawn by the survey, that professional training the stricto sensu contributes to the updating and permanent training of the nurse-teacher. The product originated this study was to hold a video, presenting and discussing the teaching skills identified by Celso Antunes as necessary to the formation of critical and reflective teacher.

O trabalho do professor no processo de avaliação tem mostrado o quanto essa atividade é motivadora e ao mesmo tempo desafiante. As escolas apresentam diferentes modos de olhar para as práticas da avaliação, que se encontram agregadas a sua cultura, aos planos de ensino e as experiências de cada professor, e ao mesmo tempo de todos nelas envolvidos. Este estudo buscou conhecer e compreender o sentido da avaliação para o enfermeiro professor de curso técnico de nível médio em Enfermagem. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que utilizou como referencial teórico e metodológico a abordagem da Fenomenologia Social de Alfred Schütz. Para desenvolver este estudo foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com doze enfermeiros professores que vivenciaram a avaliação em curso técnico de nível médio em Enfermagem. A análise dos discursos conduziu à construção de categorias concretas que expressam os motivos porque e os motivos para da ação social. As categorias foram: relação entre ensino, professor e aluno; relação teoria e prática; modos de avaliar e subjetividade no processo de avaliação; profissionalização, qualificando o olhar da avaliação e o compromisso com a autoavaliação. Esta análise possibilitou identificar o tipo vivido enfermeiro professor que vivencia em seu cotidiano escolar a avaliação do aluno no contexto da formação do técnico de enfermagem, constituído por sentir-se preocupado com a forma de como a escola vem avaliando o aluno; socializar com os seus pares as angústias acerca da avaliação e trocar experiências positivas; buscar espaços de diálogos com liberdade de expressão e maior acolhimento em seu trabalho escolar e avaliar o próprio trabalho representado por meio de suas vivências no mundo vivido da avaliação. Este estudo desvelou que há um forte chamado para que a avaliação seja positiva para aluno e professor; e ainda enquanto professor faz-se necessário refletir sobre avaliação como processo e não somente como resultado. Os professores enfocaram que ter consciência da importância de uma avaliação formativa, integrada com base nos pressupostos metodológicos dialéticos dá sentido ao desenvolvimento de suas práticas educativas<br>The teachers task in the evaluation process has shown how much this activity is motivating and at the same time challenging. Schools present different ways of looking at evaluation practices, which are found to be linked to their culture, their teaching plans and the experiences from each teacher, and at the same time, all of those involved in them. This study sought to know and understand the meaning of evaluation for a nursing teacher of a nursing professional high school course. Its a qualitative research that used as theoretical and methodological referential the Social Phenomenology approach by Alfred Schütz. For developing this study, semi-structured interviews with twelve nursing teachers who faced the evaluation of a nursing professional high school course were made. Discourse analysis led to build concrete categories that expressed the reasons why and the reasons for social action. The categories were: relationship among teaching, teacher and student; theory and practice relationship; ways of evaluating and subjectivity in the evaluation process; professionalization; qualifying the evaluation view and the compromise with self-evaluation. This analysis made it possible to identify the living kind nursing teacher who lives in his or her school routine the students evaluation in the context of forming the nursing technician, as it embraces the feeling of concerning by the way schools have evaluated students; socializing with their peers the distress of evaluating and sharing positive experiences; searching for chances of dialogues with freedom of speech and greater welcoming in their school work and evaluating the work itself represented by their living experiences in a world full of evaluation. This study revealed that there is a great need of evaluation to be positive for both the student and the teacher. And also as a teacher, its necessary to reflect on evaluation as a process and not just as a result. Teachers focused that, by having awareness of a formation evaluation, integrated with basis on the dialectic methodological assumptions, makes sense to the development of their educational practices

Objetivamos levantar a opinião de alunos e professores sobre o significado de ser bom e mau professor; as estratégias de ensino e os critérios de avaliação utilizados nas aulas. Trabalhamos um estudo qualitativo usando a metodologia participativa mediada pela Pesquisa-Ação. Investigamos 47 sujeitos (12 professores e 35 alunos) da educação profissional de nível técnico em enfermagem, de uma instituição mineira. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de questionário e da observação participante. Após categorização efetuou-se a análise dos dados. A maioria dos educadores entrevistados referiu que bom professor é aquele que é aberto, responsável, facilitador, entre outros. E o mau professor, assume postura autoritária e adialógica. Já os alunos evidenciaram ser bom professor aquele que domina e sabe passar conteúdo e para o mau professor, o inverso. Professores e alunos destacaram a aula expositiva como a técnica mais utilizada em sala de aula e os alunos evidenciaram uso excessivo de retroprojetor para esse tipo de aula. Quanto ao processo de avaliação os professores demonstraram preocupação em contemplar várias modalidades avaliativas, e os alunos destacaram provas, trabalhos individuais e em grupo como as técnicas mais utilizadas. Sobre as dificuldades enfrentadas na sala de aula, os professores mencionaram o desinteresse, e os alunos enfatizaram a desmotivação nas aulas. A respeito do ensino à distância, professores e alunos revelaram conhecimento sobre essa modalidade de ensino. Os alunos revelaram necessidade de maior motivação na vida dos professores e no processo ensinoaprendizagem. Os resultados finais foram compartilhados com alunos e professores, explicitando que isso representaria o lançamento de uma semente, necessitando maior investimento na área, sobremaneira às complexas questões que se atrelam o processo ensinoaprendizagem e a relação professor-aluno.<br>The goal of this research is to get students and professors’ opinions about waht means beeing a good or a bad teacher; learning strategies and evaluation criterias used on the classes. We used a qualitative research methods and a participative methodology in Action Research. We investigate 47 people (12 professores and 35 students) from a professional level education in nursing at an institution in Minas Gerais. The data were achieved by questionaries and participative observation. After categorizing the data we did the analysis. Most os the interviewed educators said that the caracteristics of a good professor are: openess, responsability, and among others that he has to be a facilitator of the learning process. And a bad professor is authoritarian and not able to stabilish a good dialog. On the other hand, the students said that a good professor is the one who dominates the class and knows how to explain the subject and the bad one doesn’t do any of those. Professors and students detached the expositive class as the most used technique in the classroom and the students emphasized the excessive use of the overheadprojector on this kind of classes. About the evaluation process, the professors showed that they were worried about adding new evaluation modalities, and the students said that tests, individual and group work were the most used evaluation techniques. About the difficulties inside the classroom, the professors mentioned that one of them is the students’seflessness and the students agreed that desmotivation is a problem in the classes. Professors and students said that they both have some knowledge about distance learning education. Students said that professors needed more motivation on their own lives and also on the teaching and learning process. The final results were shared with the students and professors, showing that this attitude would represent the beginning of a process which needs more attention, mainly those complex problems concerning teaching and learning process and the relation between professor and students.

Introdução: O professor enfermeiro é um profissional que tem um importante trabalho transversal na área do ensino de enfermagem. Exercendo a docência universitária, seu trabalho não se reduz ao campo didático-pedagógico, mas pressupõem ofícios com distintos ramos do saber, o que exige instrumentalização diversificada, com o objetivo de formar o profissional enfermeiro para o mundo do trabalho. Todavia, sob a hegemonia contemporânea da lógica neoliberalista, a formação do enfermeiro pode estar mais articulada ao mercado de trabalho, o que concebe um profissional proativo e flexível para a realização de multitarefas. Com o advento do neoliberalismo, a universidade pública tornou-se uma instituição de altíssimo grau de complexidade, um tipo sofisticado e diversificado de organização social, sendo a carreira docente compelida ao paradigma do produtivismo acadêmico. Mediante o interesse de estudar a formação docente e o exercício da docência no ensino de enfermagem de professores enfermeiros universitários atuantes em uma universidade pública e debruçando-se sobre as leituras científicas, compreendeu-se o termo formação docente sob uma visão ampliada, denominado nessa perspectiva desenvolvimento profissional docente (DPD). O DPD se constrói ao longo da carreira docente e pode ser influenciado pela instituição de ensino e contextos políticos. Considerando-se a influência da política neoliberalista sobre a universidade pública brasileira, partiu-se da premissa que o DPD de professores enfermeiros universitários tem profunda relação com o exercício da docência no ensino de enfermagem. Assim, essa pesquisa respondeu a seguinte questão: Como acontece o DPD de professores enfermeiros universitários atuantes em uma universidade pública? Objetivo: Analisar o desenvolvimento profissional docente de professores enfermeiros universitários atuantes em uma universidade pública. Percurso metodológico: Estudo de caso naturalístico, descritivo e exploratório de abordagem qualitativa, realizado junto à Universidade de São Paulo (USP), no curso de Bacharelado e Licenciatura em Enfermagem da Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto (EERP). Obtiveram-se dados de fontes primária e secundária. Para a fonte primária utilizou-se como instrumento de coleta de dados uma entrevista semiestruturada, e para a secundária a observação do trabalho docente e a consulta em documentos, os quais, o Curriculum lattes dos professores entrevistados, os planos de ensino das disciplinas ministradas por estes, e o projeto pedagógico do curso. As entrevistas e as observações do trabalho docente foram realizadas pela própria pesquisadora, entre os meses de setembro a dezembro de 2016. As observações aconteceram posteriormente à realização das entrevistas, mediante a técnica observação do tipo observador como participante, sendo descritas em um diário de campo, o que totalizou 200 horas de práticas pedagógicas observadas. A inclusão dos participantes no estudo caracterizou-se por amostragem intencional, obedecendo aos seguintes critérios: ser professor enfermeiro em Regime de Dedicação Integral a Docência e à Pesquisa; ter atuado ou estar atuando em alguma (s) das 23 disciplinas anuais ou semestrais que estavam sendo ofertadas para os graduandos do primeiro ao quinto ano do curso, no segundo semestre letivo do ano de 2016; e ter experiência na docência de no mínimo três anos. Os dados da entrevista semiestruturada foram organizados em quatro categorias temáticas, e analisados através da análise de conteúdo, na modalidade de análise temática. Na análise utilizou-se o referencial teórico de Carlos Marcelo García. A pesquisa somente aconteceu após aprovação por Comitê de Ética. A participação dos professores enfermeiros foi voluntária após aceitação e assinatura do termo de consentimento livre e esclarecido. Foi mantido o sigilo dos participantes e a garantia do anonimato quanto às informações adquiridas. Resultados, análise e discussão: A compreensão sobre as relações que envolvem o professor enfermeiro, e a universidade pública, o currículo, o ensino de enfermagem e a profissionalidade, possibilitaram analisar o desenvolvimento profissional docente desse grupo específico. Participaram da pesquisa 30 professores enfermeiros, com o predomínio de mulheres adultas, com tempo de formação acadêmica superior a 10 anos e experiência profissional na docência e na assistência de enfermagem há mais de cinco anos. A análise e discussão foram construídas em quatro categorias temáticas: A organização da universidade pública como elemento inerente ao desenvolvimento profissional docente; O currículo como elemento intrínseco ao desenvolvimento profissional docente; O desenvolvimento profissional docente de professores enfermeiros universitários, e as expectativas da profissão quanto as oportunidades de cursos de formação e carreira docente; e o desenvolvimento profissional docente de professores enfermeiros universitários, e as atividades acadêmicas e didáticas que envolvem o ensino de enfermagem. Compreendeu-se que os professores enfermeiros universitários entendem a função primordial da universidade pública como instituição social, contudo consentem com a sua função hegemônica contemporânea enquanto organização social, e percebem a sua estrutura física como elemento contribuinte para o DPD. Evidenciou-se o currículo do curso como elemento de instigação e divergências entre os professores, assim como, a necessidade de haver formação e o compartilhamento de discussões sobre o desenvolvimento do mesmo. Os professores enfermeiros envolvem-se com o processo de ensinar; exercem docência no ensino de enfermagem desempenhando suas práticas pedagógicas em instalações apropriadas; e têm dificuldades quanto à disponibilidade de tempo para preparar antecipadamente suas atividades de ensino. Apresentam discordância em relação à articulação entre projeto pedagógico, planos de ensino e o desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas; articulam o ensino, a pesquisa e a extensão; e demonstraram discrepâncias quanto ao uso de estratégias de ensino e de referenciais teóricos para fundamentar o preparo de suas práticas pedagógicas. Por fim, os professores enfermeiros compreendem o DPD como elemento que abarca a carreira docente e que influencia positivamente e negativamente sobre o exercício da docência no ensino de graduação em enfermagem, e apontam a necessidade de ter na universidade indicadores de avaliação, que incentivem a capacitação do professor na área do ensino. Considerações Finais: O desenvolvimento profissional docente de professores enfermeiros universitários pode exercer influência sobre o exercício da docência, beneficiando ou não o ensino de enfermagem. Espera-se com este estudo ter possibilitado reflexões sobre o exercício da docência de professores enfermeiros universitários mediante a perspectiva da visão ampliada da formação docente, assim como ter contribuído para modificações junto ao contexto do ensino de enfermagem. Em tempos de neoliberalismo recomenda-se ampliar o campo de discussão e pesquisa sobre o DPD, envolvendo a educação em enfermagem em universidades públicas<br>Introduction: The nurse professor is a professional with an important transversal job in nursing teaching. Besides being university professors, their work is not only didactic-pedagogical, but also in distinct positions in the realm of knowledge, what demands diversified instrumentation aiming to enable the professional nurse to work in the job market. Nevertheless, under the contemporaneous hegemony of neoliberal logic, the nurse formation is found more articulated to the job market, what conceives a proactive professional to multitask. With the advent of neo-liberalism, the public university became an extremely complex institution; a sophisticated and diversified social organization where the career in teaching is compelled to the paradigm of academic productivity. Owing to the interest in studying the teacher formation and teaching practice in nursing by university nurse professors working in a public university, and based on extensive scientific reading, the term teacher formation was better understood within a broader perspective as teacher professional development. The teacher professional development is built along with a career in teaching which can be influenced by the educational institution and political contexts. Considering the influence of neo-liberalist politics on the Brazilian public university, it was noted that the teacher professional development of university nurse professors has a deep relation with the teaching practice in nursing. Hence, this research answered the following question: How is the teacher professional development of university nurse professors working in a public university? Objective: Analyze the teacher professional development of university nurse professors working in a public university. Methodology: Study of a naturalistic case, descriptive and exploratory with a qualitative approach carried out along with São Paulo University (USP), in a nursing college course leading to a Bachelor of Education degree from Ribeirão Preto nursing school (EERP). Therefore, primary and secondary source data was obtained. For the primary source data collection a semi-structured interview was carried out, and for the secondary source data collection, teacher practice observation and documentation verification were chosen, which comprises the analysis of the Curriculum Lattes of the interviewed teachers, teaching practice plans of the ministered subjects and the pedagogical project of the course. The interviews and teacher practice observations were performed by the researcher between September and December 2016. The observations were posterior to the interviews by means of participant observer technique being depicted in a field diary, what totaled 200 hours of observed pedagogical practice. The participants\' inclusion in the study characterized by intentional sampling complied with the following criteria: being a nurse professor in Full Time Dedication Regime to the Teaching and Research; having worked or been working in one or some of the 23 annual or semi-annual disciplines which were being offered to the graduate students of the first and fifth year of the course in the second semester of the school year of 2016; having experience in teaching of at least three years. The semi-structured interview data was organized in four thematic categories and verified through content analysis in the thematic analysis modality. In the analysis, Carlos Marcelo Garcia\'s theoretical reference was used. The research was put into execution after the approval of the Ethics Committee. The nurse professors had a voluntary participation after acceptance and signature of the agreement term free and elucidated. Moreover, the secrecy of the applicants was maintained and the anonymity of the information gathered guaranteed. Result, analysis and discussion: The understanding about the relationship between the nurse professor and the public university, the curriculum, the teaching in nursing and professionalism permitted the analysis of the teacher professional development of this specific group. Thus, 30 nurse professors participated in the research with the preponderance of adult women, college graduated for over 10 years with professional experience in teaching and nursing assistance for over 5 years. The analysis and discussion were built in four thematic categories: - The organization of the public university as an inherent element to the teacher professional development; - The curriculum as an intrinsic element to the teacher professional development; - The teacher professional development of university nurse professors and the profession\'s expectations regarding graduation course opportunities and career in teaching; - The teacher professional development of university nurse professors and the didactic-academic activities that involve the teaching in nursing. It was inferred that the university nurse professors comprehend the primordial function of the public university as a social institution. Nonetheless, they consent with their contemporaneous hegemonic position while social organization, and perceive the university material structure as a contributing factor to the teacher professional development. In addition, the curriculum was noted as an instigating and diverging element among the professors, they felt the necessity of educating themselves and sharing ideas about its development. The nurse professors get involved in the teaching process, teach nursing executing their pedagogical practices in appropriate environments, but they have difficulty as for time availability to prepare their teaching activities beforehand. The group presents disagreement regarding articulation between pedagogical project, teaching plans and pedagogical practice development. Furthermore, they coordinate teaching, the research and extension, but demonstrate discrepancies concerning teaching strategy use and theoretical references to fundament their pedagogical practices. Lastly, the nurse professors understand the teacher professional development as an element that encompasses the teaching career and that influences positively or negatively the teacher practice in the nursing graduation. The group also utters the need of assessment indicators at the university which motivates the empowerment of the professor in the teaching area. Final Considerations: The teacher professional development of university nurse professors can influence the teaching practice, benefitting or not the nursing education. It is expected that this study has fomented reflections about the teaching practice of university nurse professors under a broader perspective of the teacher formation, as well as having contributed to modifications in the field of nursing teaching. In neo-liberalism times, it is recommended that the discussion field and the teacher professional development research be expanded involving nursing education in public universities

Aquesta recerca busca comprendre la pràctica pedagògica del professor universitari d'infermeria exemple de bones pràctiques, concretament l'elaboració i manifestació del Coneixement Didàctic del Contingut (CDC). El CDC és un potent constructe, sistèmic multidimensional, que integra els sabers disciplinaris, pedagògics i experiencials del docent. Aquest concepte, que va ser elaborat inicialment per Shulman i els seus col·laboradors de la Universitat d'Stanford, es defineix com la capacitat del professor per transformar el coneixement de la matèria en estructures comprensibles per l'estudiant. La majoria d'estudis en aquest camp s'enfoquen a explorar únicament la dimensió cognitiva, obviant la dimensió emocional com un aspecte que influencia en el CDC. Conseqüentment, s'ha identificat la necessitat d'expandir la tradicional concepció del CDC a la comprensió emocional de com els estudiants aprenen, així com explorar i abordar les emocions del docent en relació a ell mateix, als companys i al context social i polític en que les accions d'ensenyament tenen lloc. Objectius: Descriure les manifestacions i el procés d'elaboració del coneixement didàctic del contingut del professor universitari d'infermeria considerat exemple de bones pràctiques docents per part dels seus alumnes i col·legues. Explorar la dimensió emocional i actitudinal del coneixement didàctic del contingut a través de l'experiència docent del professor universitari d'infermeria. Metodologia: Aquesta tesi és un estudi de cas qualitatiu amb un enfocament fenomenològic-hermenèutic, ja que es pretén explorar el fenomen des de la perspectiva dels seus protagonistes i interpretar-los dins de l'escenari natural del seu desenvolupament. Els participants que s'han escollit de manera intencional, són dos professors de l'àrea d'infermeria de dues universitats catalanes, considerats bons docents per part dels seus alumnes i companys. Les dades s'han obtingut mitjançant l'observació no participant a les aules, entrevistes als docents (biogràfiques i d'anàlisi de la pràctica), entrevistes grupals als estudiants, converses informals i anàlisi de documents pedagògics-didàctics. Per a l'anàlisi s'ha utilitzat el mètode de comparacions constants, com un procés fortament inductiu de construcció de categories i metacategories. Resultats: Els principals resultats giren entorn a dos dominis qualitatius: el CDC i la dimensió actitudinal i emocional que integra el CDC. Les dades obtingudes evidencien que: A) La manifestació i elaboració del CDC per part dels docents experts es manifesta a través de variades estratègies a l'aula com són: la confrontació del saber i l'adaptació de sabers. B) La dimensió dialògica-reflexiva és un tret que sobresurt com a consubstancial del CDC. C) La comprensió emocional sobre la pràctica docent està integrada en el CDC. Conclusions: El CDC es manifesta a l'aula a través de variades accions, procediments i modalitats, de les quals destaquem la dimensió actitudinal i emocional que permet explicar i comprendre la seva eficàcia pedagògica. La manifestació del CDC en professors experts ens aporta un coneixement molt vàlid que cal considerar a l'hora de planificar i dissenyar programes de formació docent, i millorar la qualitat de la docència universitària.<br>Esta investigación busca comprender la práctica pedagógica del profesor universitario de enfermería ejemplo de buenas prácticas, concretamente la elaboración i manifestación del Conocimiento didáctico del Contenido (CDC).

B) La dimensión dialógica-reflexiva es un rasgo que sobresale como consustancial del CDC. C) La comprensión emocional sobre la práctica docente está integrada en el CDC. Conclusiones: El CDC se manifiesta en el aula a través de variadas acciones, procedimientos y modalidades, en las que destacamos la dimensión actitudinal y emocional que permite explicar y comprender su eficacia pedagógica. La manifestación del CDC en profesores expertos nos aporta un conocimiento muy válido a considerar para planificar y diseñar programas de formación docente y mejorar la calidad de la docencia universitaria.<br>This research aims to understand the teaching practice of university professors in the area of Nursing studies who are considered a model of good practice, particularly with regard to the development and demonstration of Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK). PCK is a powerful construct, systemic and multidimensional, which integrates disciplinary, pedagogical and experiential knowledge of the teacher. This concept was originally developed by Shulman and his collaborators at Stanford University, and it is defined as the teacher’s ability to transform the knowledge of the matter into comprehensible structures for the student. Most studies focus on exploring the cognitive dimension, while the influence of the emotional dimension on the PCK has been greatly overlooked. This research aims to address the need to expand the traditional concept of the PCK to include an emotional understanding of how students learn, as well as to explore and assess the emotions of the teacher about himself, his colleagues and the social and political context where teaching activities take place. Objectives: To describe the manifestations of PCK in university professors within Nursing studies who are considered a model of good teaching practices; and to explore the emotional and attitudinal dimension of PCK through the educational experience of university professors in Nursing studies. Methodology: This thesis is a qualitative review based on an instrumental case study with a hermeneutic phenomenological approach, as it aims to explore the phenomenon from the standpoint of its protagonists and to interpret it within the natural setting of their development. The participants, which were intentionally chosen, are two nursing professors in two Catalan universities, considered to be good teachers both by their students and peers. Data was obtained via non-participant observation in classrooms; extensive interviews with teachers: biographical and practice analysis; student group interviews; informal conversations; and analysis of pedagogical-didactic documents. For the analysis we used the method of constant comparison as an inductive process of categories and metacategories construction. Results: Main results revolve around two qualitative domains: the PCK and the attitudinal and emotional dimension embedded in the PCK. Data obtained shows that: A) The development and demonstration of the PCK by educational experts is shown through various strategies in the classroom such as: confrontation and adaptation of knowledge; B) The dialogic-reflexive dimension is a trait that stands out as inseparable from the PCK; C) Emotional awareness concerning educational practice is integrated in the PCK. Conclusions: The PCK manifests itself in the classroom through various actions, procedures and modalities, of which we highlight the attitudinal and emotional dimension that allows us to explain and understand its pedagogical effectiveness. The manifestation of PCK in expert teachers provides us with a very valid knowledge to be considered when planning and designing teaching training programs in order to improve the quality of university teaching.

Estudo exploratório qualitativo que tomou como objeto o processo de trabalho docente em Enfermagem de diferentes contextos institucionais de ensino superior (IES) no Estado de São Paulo. O objetivo geral descrever e analisar os principais aspectos relacionados ao processo de trabalho docente em três contextos institucionais que oferecem cursos de Enfermagem no Estado. O marco teórico-metodológico foi o materialismo histórico e dialético e a categoria analítica, o processo de trabalho docente, ancorado nas concepções de trabalho e profissionalidade. Para classificar as IES, utilizou-se a tipologia de contextos institucionais de Balbachevsky. Três IES, uma de cada contexto, foram selecionadas e foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 24 docentes: nove do contexto empresarial, oito do misto e sete do acadêmico. O material empírico foi analisado pela técnica de análise de discurso proposta por Fiorin, adaptada por Car e Bertolozzi. Os resultados demonstraram que há um processo de precarização e intensificação do trabalho docente, nos três contextos, embora com distinções importantes. No contexto empresarial, o regime de trabalho predominante é o horista, com dificuldade de efetivação do plano de carreira estabelecido formalmente. A infraestrutura material e humana é escassa, impondo limites ao trabalho docente, que é voltado basicamente ao ensino em sala de aula. As maiores dificuldades estão relacionadas ao perfil dos estudantes, majoritariamente trabalhadores. Há pouca inserção nas atividades de pesquisa e extensão. No contexto misto, o regime de trabalho predominante é o parcial, com um plano de carreira formalizado e efetivado, embora seja difícil cumprir alguns critérios para ascensão na carreira. A infraestrutura é tida como satisfatória, com inadequações. Há também hegemonia masculina e médica, o que dificulta o posicionamento institucional das docentes de enfermagem. O trabalho docente é voltado ao ensino de graduação, com inserção dos estudantes no ensino prático em campo já nas séries iniciais do curso. As principais dificuldades referem-se ao desgaste físico e mental do professor. No contexto acadêmico, os professores trabalham em regime de trabalho integral e exclusivo, com um plano de carreira explícito e efetivado institucionalmente. A infraestrutura é satisfatória, embora com relatos de inadequações. O trabalho está voltado principalmente para atividades administrativas e de pesquisa que são supervalorizadas, com fortes implicações para o trabalho docente. As atividades de ensino de graduação e extensão são tidas como menos valorizadas institucionalmente. Também há dificuldades para efetivar o ensino prático em campo. Conclui-se que, embora inseridos no mesmo contexto estrutural de ensino superior, o processo de trabalho docente ocorre de forma distinta nos três contextos estudados, no que se refere à práticas organizativas e didáticas. Mudar esse cenário requer, entre outros aspectos, um processo de profissionalização docente voltado para a análise e a construção de formas de enfrentamento dessa situação, reconhecendo como ponto de partida a heterogeneidade do trabalho docente em Enfermagem em diferentes contextos.<br>The object of this exploratory, qualitative study was the working process of Nursing faculty in different contexts of higher education institutions (HEI) in the State of São Paulo. The overall objective was to describe and analyze the main aspects related to the faculty working process in three contexts of institutions that offer nursing courses in the referred state. The chosen theoretical-methodological framework was the historical and dialectical materialism. The analytical category was the faculty working process, anchored on the concepts of work and professionality. Three HEI were selected according to the typology of contexts proposed by Balbachevsky, which classifies institutions into: business, mixed, and academic. Twenty-four subjects were approached through semi-structured interviews; nine subjects from the business, eight from the mixed, and seven from the academic context. The empirical material was submitted to discourse analysis as proposed by Fiorin, adapted by Car and Bertolozzi. Results showed that faculty work is under a process of precariousness and intensification in the three contexts, but with relevant differences. In the business context, the predominant labor regime is that of hourly work, which makes it difficult to establish an effective formal career plan. The material and human infrastructure is scarce and, thus, limits the working process. Nevertheless, the faculty perceives the support they receive from the coordination office of the nursing course, which assigns respect and autonomy. Faculty work is mainly aimed at teaching within classrooms. The major difficulties are related to the students profile. There is little involvement in research and outreach activities. In the mixed context, the part-time labor regime predominates, with a formal and effective career plan, although the faculty faces difficulties to comply with some of the criteria to rise in the career. Infrastructure is considered satisfactory but some inadequacies are reported. There is also a male and medical hegemony, which makes it difficult for nursing to gain a position within the institution. Despite these difficulties, some reports show that the context focuses on the quality of education rather than on profits. Faulty work is aimed at undergraduate education, with an early start in field education, in which the main reported difficulties refer to the physical and mental burden of the faculty. In the academic context, the faculty works in a full-time and exclusive labor regime with an explicit and effective career plan. Although considered satisfactory, there are reports of infrastructure inadequacies. Work is mainly focused on administrative activities and research, which are overvalued, with strong implication on faculty work. The undergraduate and outreach education activities are seen as undervalued within the institution. Several difficulties exist in field education. It is concluded that although the faculty working process lies in the same structural context of higher education, the faculty working process occurs differently across the three addressed contexts in terms of the organizational and didactic practices. Changing this scenario requires, among other aspects, a process of faculty professionalization with a view to identify, analyze and create forms to deal with this situation, and to recognize, as a starting point, the diversity of faculty work in different contexts.

Os dados foram organizados em três dimensões - Entre o trabalho e a universidade: as origens do saberes de professoras enfermeiras - Estratégias pedagógicas utilizadas na relação professor aluno e sujeito em processo de morte - Desafios cotidianos no ensino a beira do leito. A revisão de literatura e os achados a partir da análise dos depoimentos dos interlocutores ajudam a compreender que o ensino do sujeito em processo de morte é uma atividade complexa e multifacetada. O educar para cuidar da pessoa em processo de morte parece se fazer possível somente a partir de uma reflexão do existir humano, do entendimento de nossa inevitável finitude ,pois a partir do momento que consideramos a morte como sendo parte da vida é que poderemos tratar do assunto de uma maneira mais aberta, minimizando o sofrimento dos envolvidos. O estudo demonstrou que o currículo do curso não inclui explicitamente este conhecimento,ficando, a construção dos saberes sobre o tema a critério dos docentes em situação real. Ao mesmo tempo explicita a importância de uma preparação profissional para os Enfermeiros em formação relativa ao acompanhamento de sujeitos em processo de morte.<br>This study aims to understand how nursing undergraduate professors and students interact during knowledge production related to the palliative care of patients with terminal conditions. Our main main objectives were the following: (1) Understand how the processes of teaching / learning that focus on theoretical-practical activities produce knowledge along patient care on the health services; (2) Know the learning strategies used by undergraduate nursing professors, or the lack thereof, in teaching with patients on terminal process; (3) Identify how professors act in regard to the complex learning experiences of their students; (4) Contribute to the field of teaching in higher education programs. A qualitative research method was used, which included performing semi-structured interviews with six professors of a nursing college, who all act as learning supervisors for more than 5 years, as well as the students of the same course. The collected data was organized in three dimensions: (1) Among work and the university: the origins of knowledge of female nursing professors; (2) Pedagogic strategies for relationships between students, professors and patients in terminal process; (3) Challenges in everyday teaching at the bedside. The literature revision and our findings from the interviews help to understand that approaching the subject of “palliative care” is a complex and multifaceted activity. Learning to perform care of patients suffering from terminal conditions seems to be possible only with a reflection of human existence and the understanding of the inevitable ending of human life. As soon as we consider death as part of life, we will be able to approach this subject openly, diminishing the suffering of all those involved in the process. This study demonstrates that many educational programs don’t explicitly include this subject on the undergraduate schools curriculum, leaving it the discretion of professors in real situations. At the same time, it demonstrates the importance of formal training in palliative care for nursing professionals.

The present study has as main goal to get to know the Social Representations from the teaching being to the nurse teacher on nursing graduation, as well as all the features of the upbringing and professional trajectory essential on the decision of becoming a teacher. Thirteen nursing teachers from the nursing graduation course from two universities in the Região Metropolitana do Vale do Paraiba Paulista who teach nursing sciences subjects. Featured as an exploratory-descriptive with a qualitative approach at the light of Social Representations theoretical references, being two tools used to collect data: a questionnaire comprising questions pertinent to socio-demographic data and upbringing and professional, and the other tool the half-structured interview with the guiding issue: `What made you become a teacher? Speak about your professional trajectory. The methodological approach used on the analysis of the interviews was the Collective Subject Speech, when three main ideas were identified, namely: The nurse is an educator; More time to care for children; External Influences. The results on the first CSD revealed that the Social Representations on the teaching being to the participants were based on caring in nursing owns history, when they regarded the nurse as a born educator and teaching as a way of caring. Other motivating factors were mentioned as well: communication skills, socializing skills, tools to contribute to change realities, turning theory into practice, besides being engaged in researching and studying all the time. At the second CDS the participants stated that teaching was the way to bring professional life and the role of mother together, showing that the Social Representations of womens social role as responsible for the care for the children remains unaltered even after her insertion in the job market. At the third CDS it was highlighted that the construction of a professional identity is closely related to the socialization process that begins in the nuclear family and spreads out for a lifetime, introducing the person into new segments of the society as it was the case of the professional socialization influenced by the graduation teacher. It is said to be that this case can elicit the debate and the reflexion on the process of nursing teacher upbringing for the practice on higher education in view of the Nursing Curriculum Guidelines proposals.<br>O presente estudo teve como objetivo conhecer as Representações Sociais do ser docente para o enfermeiro professor da graduação em enfermagem, bem como os aspectos da formação e da trajetória profissional determinantes na decisão de se tornar docente. Foram entrevistadas treze enfermeiras docentes do curso de graduação em enfermagem de duas universidades da Região Metropolitana do Vale do Paraíba Paulista, que ministravam disciplinas das ciências da enfermagem. Caracterizou-se como um estudo exploratório-descritivo com enfoque qualitativo a luz do referencial teórico das Representações Sociais, sendo aplicados dois instrumentos na coleta de dados: um questionário contendo questões relativas a dados sociodemográficos, de formação e trajetória profissional e o outro instrumento foi a entrevista semiestruturada com a questão norteadora: O que te motivou a se tornar docente? Fale sobre sua trajetória profissional. A estratégia metodológica utilizada para a análise das entrevistas foi o Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo, sendo identificadas três ideias centrais, a saber: O enfermeiro é um educador; Mais tempo para cuidar dos filhos; Influências. Os resultados no primeiro DSC revelaram que as Representações Sociais sobre o ser docente para as participantes estavam ancoradas na própria história do cuidar em enfermagem, quando consideraram que o enfermeiro é um educador inato e que a docência é uma forma de cuidar. Ainda apontaram como fatores motivadores: habilidade pessoal para se comunicar, facilidade de interação interpessoal; possibilidade de contribuir para transformar a realidade; aliando a teoria com a prática, além de estar sempre pesquisando e estudando. No DSC 2 as participantes mencionaram que a docência foi o caminho para conciliar a vida profissional e seu papel de mãe, demonstrando que a RS do papel social da mulher como responsável pelo cuidado com os filhos permanece inalterado, mesmo após seu ingresso no mercado de trabalho. No DSC 3 ficou evidente que a construção da identidade profissional está diretamente relacionada com a socialização que se inicia no âmbito familiar e se estende por toda vida, introduzindo o indivíduo em novos setores da sociedade, como foi o caso da socialização profissional influenciada pela professora da graduação. Acredita-se que este estudo possa motivar o debate e a reflexão sobre o processo de formação do professor de enfermagem para o exercício do

O processo ensino-aprendizagem é complexo e apresenta várias incógnitas, principalmente quando se pensa na avaliação de sua qualidade. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi identificar os fatores que interferem positivamente ou negativamente no processo ensino-aprendizagem, segundo a percepção de alunos e professores do curso de graduação em Enfermagem. A metodologia utilizada foi um estudo descritivo com abordagem qualitativa através da técnica de incidentes críticos. Fizeram parte do estudo 36 professores e 140 alunos do curso de graduação em enfermagem de uma Universidade particular do Município de Londrina- PR. Após a análise dos dados pode-se observar que os alunos indicaram 918 incidentes críticos, sendo 319 com referências positivas e 599 com referências negativas, a categoria que mais obteve referências negativas 317 e positivas 118 esteve relacionada à conduta do professor, em seguida a categoria demonstração de interesse pelo auto-aprendizado com 122 incidentes, sendo 72 com indicação de referências positivas e 45 negativas. No que tange aos 250 incidentes críticos referidos pelos professores, 64 apresentaram indicação positivas e 186 negativas, sendo a interação com o grupo a categoria que recebeu maior número de referências, sendo 10 com indicação positivas e 48 negativas, em seguida a categoria experiências profissionais anteriores do aluno com 40 incidentes, sendo 13 referências positivas e 27 negativas. Estes dados demonstraram que para que a adequação do processo ensino-aprendizagem ocorra de forma eficiente é necessário que haja um relacionamento professor-aluno e aluno-aluno que respeite as diferenças, e as experiências vivenciadas por cada um.<br>The teaching-learning process is complex and displays many question marks, mainly when one thinks about the quality of the teaching-learning process.therefore, this study aims at identifying the factors which interfere positively or negatively in the teaching-learning process, through the perception of the students and teachers of the Nursing course. The methodology used was a descriptive study with a qualitative approach through the critical incidents technique. 36 teachers and 140 nursing students of a private university in Londrina, PR have taken part of the study. After data analyses one can observe that the students pointed out 918 critical incidents from which 319 has a positive connotation and 599 has a negative connotation, the category which had the most negative connotations 317 and positive 118 had to do with the teacher behavior, the category interest demonstration towards self-learning with 122 incidents from which 72 has a positive connotation and 45 negative. According to the critical incidents referred to by the teacher in a number of 250, 64 had a positive connotation and 186 negative, and the interaction with the groups is the category which has received the biggest number of connotations, 10 positive and 148 negative, moreover the category early professional experience from the student with 40 incidents has 13 positive connotations and 27 negative. This data shows that to have the teaching-learning process run smoothly, it is required a good relationship between the teachers and the students and student/student respecting each other differences , and their experiences throughout their lives.

Introdução: A formação de professores para a educação profissional técnica de nível médio em enfermagem voltada às características da sociedade contemporânea pressupõe a inserção das tecnologias digitais de informação e comunicação (TDIC) nos processos educativos. A vivência do aprendizado eletrônico na formação inicial pode auxiliar o professor a inserir essas tecnologias em sua prática de forma crítica e competente. Objetivo: este estudo teve como objetivos a construção e implementação de aulas virtuais para o Curso de Licenciatura em Enfermagem da Escola de Enfermagem da Universidade de São Paulo (EEUSP) e a avaliação das estratégias de ensino adotadas nas dimensões construção e síntese do conhecimento nessas aulas. Método: Trata-se de pesquisa aplicada, de produção tecnológica desenvolvida em três etapas. A primeira correspondeu à construção e implementação das aulas virtuais. A segunda à avaliação da estratégia de ensino adotada na dimensão construção do conhecimento através da análise das contribuições postadas nos fóruns de discussão das aulas virtuais. Como categorias de análise elegeram-se os critérios de avaliação da aprendizagem que contemplaram o grau de interação e o domínio do conteúdo estudado. A terceira, relativa à avaliação da estratégia de ensino adotada na dimensão síntese do conhecimento, deu-se a partir da análise da resolução dos problemas propostos. As categorias de análise contemplaram a pertinência da resolução ao problema e a clareza na expressão das ideias. Resultados: Foram construídas três aulas virtuais (Teoria da Aprendizagem Significativa, Metodologia Dialética e Professor Reflexivo) tendo como referencial metodológico o design instrucional contextualizado, e como referenciais teóricos a metodologia dialética de construção do conhecimento, a teoria da aprendizagem significativa e a andragogia. As aulas foram implementadas em três edições do curso (2010, 2011 e 2012). A análise das aulas virtuais, nessas edições mostrou que, os referenciais teórico-metodológicos adotados na construção das mesmas, favoreceram a aprendizagem significativa a partir da construção do conhecimento. Mostrou também que as estratégias de ensino adotadas nas dimensões construção e síntese do conhecimento foram adequadas a estes propósitos e à compreensão da trajetória de aprendizagem dos licenciandos favorecendo a auto e a heterorregulação da aprendizagem. Sinalizou que a inclusão da autoavaliação nos fóruns e a mudança nos critérios de avaliação, na edição 2012, contribuiu para a melhoria na qualidade da participação dos licenciandos e na apreensão do conhecimento. Apontou também novos caminhos para aprimoramento das aulas. Conclusões: os resultados mostraram os referenciais teórico-metodológicos adotados possibilitaram a elaboração de aulas virtuais centradas na construção do conhecimento e na aprendizagem colaborativa, como uma proposta inovadora para a inserção das TDIC na formação de professores em enfermagem.<br>Introduction: The formation of teachers for the technical professional education of secondary school in Nursing turned to the characteristics of the contemporary society presupposes the insert of the digital technologies of information and communication (TDIC) in the educational processes. The existence of the e-learning in the initial formation can aid the teachers to insert those technologies in their practice in a critical and competent way. Objective: This study had as objectives the construction and implementation of virtual classes for the Nursing Licensure Course of the School of Nursing of the University of São Paulo (EEUSP) and the evaluation of the teaching strategies adopted in the dimensions \"construction and synthesis of the knowledge\" in those classes. Method: This is an applied technological production research developed in three stages. The first stage corresponded to the construction and implementation of the virtual classes. The second stage was related to the evaluation of the teaching strategy adopted in the dimension \"construction of the knowledge\" through the analysis of the contributions posted on the forums of discussion of the virtual classes. The criteria of learning evaluation that contemplated the degree of interaction and the domain of the content covered in the course were chosen as analyses categories. The third stage, related to the evaluation of the teaching strategy adopted in the dimension \"synthesis of the knowledge\", started from the analysis of the resolution of the problem proposed. The analysis categories contemplated the pertinence of the resolution to the problem and the clarity in the expression of the ideas. Results: Three virtual classes were built (Theory of the Significant Learning, Dialectical Methodology and Reflexive Teacher) using as methodological reference the contextualized instructional design and as theoretical references, the dialectical methodology of the knowledge construction, the theory of the significant learning and the andragogy. The classes were implemented in three editions of the course (2010, 2011 and 2012). The analysis of the virtual classes in those editions showed that, the theoretical-methodological references adopted in the construction of the same ones favored the significant learning starting from the construction of the knowledge. It also showed that the teaching strategies adopted in the \"dimensions construction and synthesis of the knowledge\" were appropriate to these purposes and the comprehension of the learning process of the graduates favoring the auto- and heteroregulation of the learning. It signaled that the inclusion of the self-evaluation in forums and the change in the evaluation criteria, in 2012 edition, contributed to the improvement in the quality of the participation of the graduates and in the apprehension of the knowledge. It also pointed new paths to the improvement of the classes. Conclusions: The results showed that the adopted theoretical-methodological references enabled the elaboration of virtual classes centered in the construction of the knowledge and in the collaborative learning, as an innovative proposal for the insert of the digital technologies of information and communication in the formation of nursing teachers.

No. of bitstreams: 1 HANIA MILANELLI.pdf: 837357 bytes, checksum: 8bcbeecf2325f19530018438765e7f43 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-08-26<br>The present research mainly aimed to investigate the social representations of the role of being a teacher of the nurse teacher who works in the Nursing Technical Course, the one who had attended a post graduation course with pedagogic approach, required by MEC since January 2008. The theoretical basis of the research was guided by the concept of Social Representation enunciated by Sèrge Moscovici (1978) and mediated by Denise Jodelet (1984) and Mary Spink (2204). Considerations about nursing teaching were made within the Brazilian education scene, evincing the technical teaching legalization in the social economic and political context of the country which regulated the nursing technical teaching. The last demands required by the Education Ministry and the Nursing Regional Council about the teaching practice in the technical course were also described in this research. The data collection was possible through semi structured interviews, carried out with 07 nurse teachers egressed from the post graduation course with pedagogic approach. It was used a qualitative approach based on e content analysis standing out the research subjects. The results revealed that the social representations of the role of being a teacher in the target population had been anchored in the perspective of transmitting the curricular and moral contents, although, the results also tried to push away the traditional paradigm idea of the teacher as an only knowledge transmitter. The results made evident as well that the post graduation course with pedagogic approach has contributed with the participants nurse teachers for the construction and reconstruction process of being a teacher. The social representations of those teachers also revealed, at last, the satisfaction of being a teacher connected with the idea of happiness in doing their teaching activities, what hasn&#146;t put aside the strong presence of the nurse profession.<br>A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar as representações sociais de ser docente do professor enfermeiro que atua no Ensino Técnico em enfermagem e cursou Pós-Graduação com ênfase pedagógica, exigido pelo MEC a partir de janeiro de 2008. A fundamentação teórica da pesquisa foi norteada pelo conceito de Representação Social enunciado por Sèrge Moscovici (1978) e mediado por Denise Jodelet (1984) e Mary Jane Spink (2004). Foram tecidas considerações sobre o ensino de enfermagem dentro do quadro da educação brasileira, evidenciando a legalização do ensino técnico no contexto socioeconômico e político do país que regulamentou o ensino técnico de enfermagem. Também foram descritas as últimas exigências feitas pelo Ministério da Educação e pelo Conselho Regional de Enfermagem sobre o exercício da docência no ensino técnico. A coleta de dados foi possível por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas, realizadas com 07 professores enfermeiros egressos do curso de Pós-Graduação com ênfase pedagógica. Foi utilizada a abordagem qualitativa centrada na análise de conteúdo dando voz aos sujeitos da pesquisa. Os resultados revelaram que as representações sociais sobre o ser docente da população-alvo foram ancoradas na perspectiva de transmitir os conteúdos curriculares e morais, porém, tentaram se afastar da idéia do paradigma tradicional do professor que só transmite conhecimento. Os resultados também evidenciaram que o curso de Pós-Graduação com ênfase pedagógica contribuiu com os professores enfermeiros da pesquisa para o processo de construção e reconstrução do ser docente. As representações sociais dos professores deste estudo revelaram, por último, a satisfação em ser docente atrelada à idéia de felicidade em exercer as atividades docentes, o que não deixou de lado a forte presença da profissão de enfermeiro.

Workplace violence, which exists in many professions, is not excluded from the nursing profession. The term horizontal violence is commonly used to define violence amongst colleagues in the work force. Despite an increase in the literature during the last three decades, horizontal violence continues to remain a serious issue for the nursing profession. This phenomenon must be taken seriously because studies indicate that nurses encountering co-worker violence often intent to leave the profession. Clearly, this will cause a greater strain on the current nursing shortage, which is currently projected to increase. The strain of nurses encountering incivility amongst one another, will not only impact the nursing profession but also health agencies/organizations. The ongoing recruitment and termination of nurses’ will adversely impact organizations. Finally, as health care is already associated with many stressors, the additional strain of horizontal violence will ultimately impact patient care. The intent of this study was to explore nurses’ experience of horizontal violence; this to draw attention of the possible consequences and the seriousness of horizontal violence to the nursing profession and health care organizations. The intent was also to identify strategies to mitigate horizontal violence in the workplace. A qualitative approach was employed using phenomenology as the research methodology. Phenomenology is the study of the phenomena through the lived experience, which is exactly the essence that I intended to capture in the work place violence study. Data collection was completed via individual in-depth interviews. Themes and patterns were identified during the interview process. The results of this study revealed that nurses were enduring horizontal violence and the current methods of dealing with co-worker incivility were not effective. Although policies were in place to deter co-worker violence, these were not enforced, and the reporting methods were a deterrent to report horizontal violence.

Incivility disrupts the learning environment for nursing students and faculty, and contributes to the national nursing shortage since many nursing faculty reportedly leave academia because of disruptive student behaviors. Academic leaders at a midwestern college of nursing are concerned by the increasing number of students engaging in uncivil behaviors and are seeking solutions. Using Clark's conceptual model, which holds that incivility can be mitigated with effective communication and engagement, this qualitative case study was designed to understand what faculty perceive as the cause of student incivility, and what actions they believe would decrease these uncivil behaviors. Data were collected from semi-structured interviews with 10 purposefully selected faculty members who met the established criteria for participation. The data were transcribed, member checked, and coded for emerging themes. Coding was completed using an open and axial coding process. Nursing faculty communicated a lack of knowledge regarding how to address student incivility, and expressed not feeling properly skilled to defuse uncivil encounters. Five major themes emerged, as follows: classroom expectations, caring culture, organizational support, orientation, and student entitlement. A 3-day professional development workshop on managing student disruptive behaviors and promoting civility within the learning environment was developed as the project outcome. Addressing incivility by learning effective ways to respond, manage, and diminish disruptive behaviors has the potential to positively impact the nursing profession, the patients in nurses' care, and the healthcare system.

Esta pesquisa teve como propostas caracterizar a prática pedagógica das professoras que atuam na Educação Profissional Técnica de Nível Médio em Enfermagem, de uma instituição privada do interior paulista e de identificar também a percepção da coordenadora do curso quanto à prática pedagógica das docentes do mesmo. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo-exploratório, de natureza qualitativa. A obtenção dos dados se deu por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas gravadas, no período de julho a dezembro de 2006. A população estudada foi constituída por cinco enfermeiras professoras que ministravam aulas teóricas e práticas e a coordenadora do curso, que estavam atuando nesta instituição no momento da pesquisa. Da análise das entrevistas, norteadas pelo Fenômeno Central: A Prática Pedagógica na Educação Profissional Técnica de Nível Médio em Enfermagem emergiram três categorias: o professor na instituição escola profissional; o caminho para ser professor; o processo ensino-aprendizagem: planejamento, execução e avaliação. A partir destas categorias, foi possível a construção de algumas reflexões sobre a prática educativa das docentes e da coordenadora, considerando as vivências relatadas por elas. Os docentes são agentes formadores e necessitam atualizar seus conhecimentos. Desse modo, é fundamental repensar a prática pedagógica, dando ênfase a uma atividade educativa baseada na práxis, como instrumento de transformação.<br>This research proposed to characterize the pedagogical practice of teachers who work on Professional Technic Education of Nursing Intermediate Level in a private institution of São Paulo State countryside and also identify the course´s coordinator perception as for pedagogical practice of course´s professors. It s a question for a descriptive-explorer study, qualitative nature. The data were obtained by recorded semi-structured interviews, since july until december 2006. The studied population was composed by five teachers nurses who ministered theorical and practical classes and by the course coordinator, whom were working in this institution at the research s moment. Three categories emerged by the analysis of interviews guided for the Central Phenomenon: The Pedagogical Practice on Professional Technic Education of Nursing Intermediate Level. They are: the professor at the professional school institution; the way to be a professor; the teaching-learning process: projection, execution and evaluation. From the general analysis of categories, became possible the construction of some reflections about the educative practice of professors and coordinator, considering the experiences related by them. The professors are former agents and they need to update their knowledges. In this manner, it s fundamental to rethink the pedagogical practice, giving emphasis to a educative activity based in praxis, as a transformation instrument.

In its struggle to be recognized as a legitimate profession, nursing has proceeded in several directions, promoting diversity of professional views among its practitioners. The many changes taking place in nursing supported the need for a study determining exactly how staff nurses view the profession of nursing. The criteria of a profession as defined by Valiga (1982): the boundaries, goals, and scholarly component of the discipline, the recipient of the discipline's service, the relationship of the discipline to others, and the independence, responsibility, autonomy, commitment, and activities of the discipline's practitioners (pp. 126-127), were the basis of the study. The views of the profession as held by the staff nurses were related to the variables of age, preparatory and/or additional nursing education, number of years worked since graduation, length of time in present employment, and the agency of employment. The 600 subjects were randomly selected by computer at the Registered Nurses' Association of British Columbia (R.N.A.B.C.). The Views About Nursing Questionnaire, developed by Valiga (1982), along with a background information questionnaire were sent to the subjects by the R.N.A.B.C. A total of 262 usable questionnaires were the basis of data analysis. Pearson product-moment correlations and analysis of variance were performed as appropriate. These analyses revealed that there was an inverse, but not statistically significant, relationship between age and number of years worked and scores on the Views About Nursing Questionnaire. There was no relationship between the scores and education and the scores and length of time in present employment. Because a large majority of respondents were employed in acute care hospitals, no analysis of the relationship of agency of employment and the scores was undertaken. Conclusions and implications of this study are addressed and suggestions for further study are presented.<br>Applied Science, Faculty of<br>Nursing, School of<br>Graduate

This study examined the perceptions of nursing as a profession of students graduating from college-based nursing diploma programs. To answer the research question, the Concept of Nursing Scale designed and tested by Valiga (1982) was administered to 101 students in British Columbia Colleges approximately four weeks prior to graduation. Demographic data were also obtained. The responses were coded and scored by hand and the data entered into computer files. The statistical package used for analysis consisted of the SCSS Conversational System (Nie, et al., 1980). The concepts reflected in the Valiga Concept of Nursing Scale consist of: (a) boundaries of the profession, (b) recipient of the profession's service, (c) goals of the profession, (d) relationship of the profession to others, (e) independence of the practitioner, (f) responsibility of the practitioner, (g) scholarly component of the profession, (h) autonomy of the practitioner, (i) commitment of the practitioner, and (j) activities of the profession. Scores were high in the areas of definition, client, goals, and scholarship. These results indicated that: (a) the students surveyed had a clear definition of the scope of the profession, (b) they were able to identify the recipient of the profession's service and the goal of the profession, and (c) they recognized a scholarly component to the profession. The scores in the areas of independence and commitment were marginally lower than in the four areas mentioned above. These findings implied that the students graduating from college-based nursing diploma programs perceived nursing as functioning independently and that commitment was viewed as a characteristic of the nursing profession. Finally, the scores in the areas of autonomy, responsibility, relationships, and activities were low. These results indicated that the students surveyed perceived nursing as having minimal control over its practice and did not view the members of the profession as being responsible and accountable for their own actions. In addition, these students did not have a clear understanding of the nature of nursing's relationship with other members of the health care team and were uncertain as to the activities of the nurse.<br>Applied Science, Faculty of<br>Nursing, School of<br>Graduate

Nursing as a profession has historically been largely dominated by females, both in terms of the demographical profile and the common perception of nursing being a task for women. A small minority of men do however practice as nurses and as such are anomalous in a female dominated profession. Drawing on profeminist theories of masculinities this study aimed to investigate the experiences of men working as nurses in Ireland, how they relate to masculinities and how they negotiate a gendered identity. Using a qualitative interpretative methodology 16 in-depth interviews were conducted with practicing male nurses. Results reveal tensions and contraindications for men in negotiating gendered identities as nurses with significant evidence of positioning in relation to hegemonic ideals. The fluidity and contingency of masculinities is also revealed, particularly in relation to emotionality and embodiment. This study contributes to the knowledge base of sociological theories of masculinities but also to knowledge about the nursing profession and its gendered aspects.

This thesis explores perceptions of nursing held by a range of stakeholders at the beginning of the 21st century. Using a constructivist methodology, this study locates nursing within the current context of healthcare, acknowledging the historical and socio-political influences which have contributed to shaping nursing’s identity and nursing work. The use of a case study approach as the mode for constructivist inquiry draws on an understanding of this approach as a ‘depth examination of an instance’ (Lincoln and Guba, 1985 p.360). This recognises the contemporary and time bound nature of the study, located in a time of modernisation and change within both nursing and the wider National Health Service.

Trabalho de Projeto para apresentação à Escola Superior de Saúde do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal para cumprimento dos requisitos à obtenção do grau de Mestre em Enfermagem de Saúde Mental e Psiquiatria.<br>Apesar de não ser um fenómeno recente, a indisciplina na sala de aula é hoje juntamente com a violência, o insucesso e o abandono escolar, um dilema com que as escolas se vêm confrontadas. Sendo identificado ao longo de todo o processo educativo, este fenómeno perturba o processo de aprendizagem dos alunos e gera um ambiente de instabilidade emocional e profissional nos docentes. Existe entre estes um sentimento de impotência e desgaste que conduz muitas vezes a um menor investimento na relação com os alunos. A problemática desenvolvida neste projecto, com o foco na indisciplina na sala de aula, resultou do trabalho desenvolvido no grupo do PES, no âmbito do estágio realizado em Saúde Escolar. Em linhas gerais, destacamos a existência de um clima de tensão e de alguns conflitos entre as díades Professor-Aluno e Aluno-Aluno com a ocorrência de comportamentos de indisciplina, essencialmente de oposição e de ofensa verbal, pelo que se justificava uma intervenção com o grupo participante, com o objectivo de atenuar/reduzir os comportamentos desadequados e desenvolver um clima relacional positivo entre as díades em questão. A metodologia utilizada foi a do trabalho de projecto. Procurámos identificar os comportamentos de indisciplina que ocorrem em sala de aula e caracterizar as perceções de professores e alunos sobre esta questão. Os dados foram recolhidos através da utilização de técnicas de observação direta, análise documental, conversas informais, grupos de discussão e entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Estes permitiram-nos, posteriormente, o estabelecimento de um plano de intervenção, delineado para sete sessões e integrado no Projeto Curricular da disciplina de Cidadania, bem como a realização de um Workshop, com os professores, que proporcionou um espaço de reflexão e partilha de experiências sobre esta temática<br>Abstract:Even though indiscipline, violence, academic failure and school abandonment are not recent phenomenon, nowadays they constitute a dilemma in which schools find themselves confronted with. This phenomenon, which in many cases is a part of the educational process, disturbs students’ learning process and creates an environment of emotional and professional instability among the teaching staff. In consequence, teachers feel impotent, which leads to a lesser investment in their relationships with the students. The main theme developed in this project, which focuses on students’ indiscipline in the classroom, is a result of a work done in PES’s group. Its main objective was to build knowledge about this kind of reality in order to create an intervention that allows reducing indiscipline behaviors. The methodology used was the project work. When we arrived, we noticed that the tense atmosphere and some conflicts between teachers and students and among the students, were related to the occurrence of indiscipline behaviors (that were essentially of opposition and verbal abuse), so that is why we made an intervention with the group that was participating, seeking to reduce inappropriate behavior and develop a positive relational environment. We seek to identify indiscipline behaviors that occur in classrooms and characterize teachers and students insights about these issues. The information was collected through the use of techniques of direct observation, document analysis, informal conversations, group discussions and semistructured interviews, which then allowed the establishment of an action plan designed to seven sessions and integrated in a curricular project of the discipline “Cidadania”., and the realization of a workshop with teachers that would provide a space for reflection and sharing experiences on this subject.

Due to the digitalization era and challenges faced by the healthcare sector, Medical Information Systems are now being extensively used at hospitals. The implementation of the systems is a complex task which entails a need for careful considerations from a managerial view, since the main purpose with implementing the systems is for managerial control. One of the things management should consider is the professional aspect. The nursing profession is a highly specific one, and this could implicate special considerations. The aim of this master’s thesis is to take on a sociotechnical approach towards the implementation of Medical Information Systems and investigate how the nursing profession is affecting the implementation process, and what it may implicate for hospital management. To answer the research question a qualitative approach has been chosen. The empirical data has been gathered through semi-structured interviews with nurses from the case organization. The result implies that the nursing profession have a substantial impact on the implementation process. Instead of embracing the instructions and support offered by management, the nurses develop their own way of working within the system.

This thesis examines the impact of military influence on civilian nursing development from the outbreak of war in 1939 until the restructuring of nurse administration in 1969. It will be argued that a military imposition on civilian nursing was responsible for hindering professional progress and preventing reform. This argument challenges the orthodox view of nursing history which maintains that nurses adopted a variety of professionalization strategies in order to gain credibility and state recognition. This recognition was only achieved as a result of a thirty year battle, during which status became an over-riding concern. This thesis argues that the medical demands of the Second World War threatened the professional foundations of nursing organization, and nurses responded by adopting militarization strategies in an effort to raise and protect their status. These militarization strategies affected all aspects of nursing practice and organizational development, and held significant implications for the post-war reconstruction of health -care delivery. Traditional studies of nursing history in this period have concentrated on the civilian nursing records alone, and have therefore overlooked the military dimension of nursing development. This study uses civilian nursing records, including those of the General Nursing Council and the Royal College of Nursing, in conjunction with military nursing records, including those of the War Office, and the correspondence and diaries of military A comparative analysis of these records proves that the militarization of nursing was an important issue. The analysis explores the interchange of military and civilian nursing personnel during the Second World War, and examines four key relationships in the post-war era: betweengovernment and nursing policy, between nurse leadership and nursing practice, between nurses and other occupational groups, and between various nursing grades at ward level. This analysis exposes the various ways in which militarism has infiltrated these relationships, and has been allowed to dictate the direction and scope of nursing development

Nurse practitioners have a duty to compassionately care for the sick, wounded, traumatised and weak patients in their charge, which personally exposes them to the patients' pain, trauma and suffering on a daily basis. In addition to this, nurse practitioners work in demanding and dire circumstances, which influences not only their well-being, but also their ability to provide compassionate care. The result is a nursing workforce that is experiencing compassion fatigue. The aim of this study was to define compassion fatigue within the context of the nursing profession, through achieving three objectives which were guided by a philosophical inquiry design, used along with qualitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual research strategies. The first objective was to conduct a concept analysis of compassion fatigue in order to construct a connotative (theoretical) definition. Using the concept analysis method of Walker and Avant (2005) which is based on the original method of Wilson (1987), the characteristics of compassion and fatigue were listed, ordered and reduced to identify the defining characteristics (connotations) and categories of compassion fatigue. These defining characteristics (connotations) and categories were used to clarify the meaning of compassion fatigue through the construction of a connotative (theoretical) definition. A model case, borderline case and contrary case were described to confirm the defining characteristics (connotations) of the concept. The categories and defining characteristics (connotations) of compassion fatigue were further established through a literature control that grounded the findings of the concept analysis. The second objective was to identify and describe the empirical indicators of compassion fatigue in order to construct a denotative (operational) definition. The empirical indicators were identified from the characteristics (connotations) of compassion fatigue and the literature control. These listed empirical indicators were then ordered and divided, so as to permit the synthesis of a denotative (operational) definition of compassion fatigue. The third objective was to describe a conceptual framework through an integrative literature review. The main constructs embedded in compassion fatigue, namely the environment, the nursing practice, and the nurse practitioner, were described in detail and the relationship between these factors and compassion fatigue explicated, with their interconnectedness being graphically presented in a conceptual map The findings reveal that there is an urgent need to make a concerted effort to deal with compassion fatigue, which is calamitous for the nursing profession. The recommendations for practice, education and research crystallize out of these findings.<br>Thesis (M.Cur.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.

Continuing Professional Education (CPE) is constantly evolving and is now mandatory in some professions in many countries. In Hong Kong, CPE for nursing profession remains voluntary. This research seeks to gather the perceptions, opinions and voices of nurse practitioners, college leaders and academic experts in Hong Kong if CPE is changed from a voluntary basis to a mandatory regime with the focus on analyzing different aspects of CPE. A literature review was carried out in order to distill the views of international scholars and practitioners, together with a review of policies pertaining to continuing professional development (CPD) and CPE. Furthermore, theoretical and practical implications were discussed, and suggestions for future researchers were made. In order to answer the research questions, a phenomenological qualitative study was conducted on the subject topic. Regarding the conceptual framework, the adult learning theory supplemented by motivation theories were scrutinized and analyzed while discussing the application of CPE. This study will contribute to the issue of CPE particularly as there were hitherto few qualitative studies on this topic. In connection with data collection, various methods were used, including individual interviews and focus groups, with participants recruited via (1) contact lists searched from the Internet, university directories, publications; (2) participants in relevant CPE courses for nurses. The study focuses on three cohort studies across time with a group of people who shared a similar characteristic and experience, involving 22 participants in total. 18 face-to-face individual interviews and 4 focus groups were organized. To probe the research questions, voices and opinions were collected from individual interviews. The data were transcribed, analyzed and organized by inter alia classifying by keywords and phrases. All the key concepts were coded, a technique helping to search for the relevant data to answer the research questions. Through feedback from participants on the findings, 10 key meaningful themes were successively derived from participants’ voices, opinions and answers. The results show that eleven participants were rather favorable to voluntary CPE at present. They doubted that mandatory CPE to some extent may bring along pressure and problems like labor shortage rather than professional and personal growth. On the other hand, the head of the nursing faculty of one of the universities in Hong Kong had no preference for adopting mandatory or voluntary CPE, while asserting that nurses should be self-disciplined and self-checking was necessary. In contrast, ten participants were slightly favorable to mandatory CPE in the long run for improving professional standards, provided that certain coordination and support would be given by employers.

Riyadh City in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has a chronic and severe shortage of Saudi-trained nurses and a high nurse turnover rate. Expatriate nurses comprise most of the nursing workforce in Riyadh. This presents a challenge to safe healthcare delivery. To formulate strategies to promote and encourage secondary school Saudi students to choose nursing as their career path, it is imperative to understand community attitudes and perceptions toward the nursing profession. The aim of this study is to explore the perception of the Riyadh community toward nursing as a future career choice. In this study, the Riyadh community refers to final year high school students, parents of high school students and Saudi nationals working as nurses in Riyadh. A sequential exploratory mixed-method study was utilised to accomplish the aim and objectives of the study. The first phase uses qualitative focus groups and was conducted with the general community and nursing groups; it explored the issues and their perceptions of nursing in general. A questionnaire was adopted from Elham Al Naqshbandi. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire was tested, and the items of the questionnaire were assessed for their appropriateness. Finally, the questionnaire was distributed to the target sample in groups in Riyadh City. The qualitative findings were presented using explanatory themes in two sections. The three themes in section one are as follows: What is nursing? The contradictions; Social challenges; and Influence on the students’ decision to choose nursing as a career choice. The two themes in section two are the following: Experiences in career choice and a view of nursing in the Riyadh community. In the quantitative stage, 554 (86.6%) high school students completed the questionnaire in October 2014. The findings indicate that although school students respect the nursing profession, they demonstrated a lack of awareness in the community about nursing. Students’ concerns about nursing were around perceived future marital status and the lower financial remuneration compared to other professions. Riyadh community high school students are potential recruits for local nursing programmes and are a source of understanding about nursing as a career choice. The findings of this study support previous studies that reveal that choosing nursing as a career in Riyadh, KSA is strongly influenced by the societal image of the nursing profession and family attitude toward nursing. One’s perception of nursing as a career in Riyadh is influenced by institutional factors in the Saudi context (cultural-cognitive and normative factors). The reasons for not being interested in nursing as a future career include, but are not restricted to, normative factors; social status, financial status and sociocultural factors, such as influence of parents and religion; the issue of mixing with other genders; and long working hours and doing night shifts. Encouraging Saudi high school students to consider nursing as a future career option in Riyadh city requires fundamental reform and improvement to the societal image and understanding of the nursing profession. Strategies to do require plans to engage family members, particularly parents, as well as the leaders from high schools, nursing, the community, media and religious leaders to help reshape the image of nursing.

El procés de construcció de la identitat de la infermera s’inicia amb l’estudi de la carrera i es consolida durant la pràctica professional; no obstant, la construcció d’una identitat com a acadèmic en l’àmbit de la infermeria, suposa una trajectòria menys institucionalitzada, que comença habitualment quan s’accedeix a la docència universitària. Això requereix l’exercici en àrees per a les quals ha estat poc preparada durant la seva formació. Per altra banda, el rol d’investigador apareix en els últims anys també amb força en els estudis d’infermeria, i en el context actual constitueix una nova dimensió que s’afegeix a la de docent, i requereix a la vegada la construcció i desenvolupament d’elements identitaris específics. Tenint en compte les consideracions precedents, aquesta investigació va tenir com a propòsit investigar els processos de construcció de la identitat docent i investigadora de l’acadèmic d’infermeria, amb la finalitat de promoure el desenvolupament i l’adaptació de les infermeres als reptes que planteja la situació universitària actual. Per aconseguir aquest objectiu es van realitzar quatre estudis, tots ells realitzats a través d’un disseny descriptiu i interpretatiu, el primer amb infermeres que treballaven en docència en dues Universitats de Xile, i els altres tres amb infermeres de diferents Universitats de Catalunya. La recollida de dades es va fer a través d’entrevistes semiestructurades i el registre de diaris narratius setmanals per part de les participants. L’objectiu del primer estudi va consistir en identificar com les infermeres dedicades a la docència construeixen la seva identitat professional en aquest rol. El segon, va profunditzar en les construccions identitàries de l’acadèmic d’infermeria respecte als processos d’ensenyament i aprenentatge i la investigació en infermeria. El tercer, va tenir per finalitat incloure l’anàlisi dels incidents crítics i les seves estratègies de com afrontar en l’exercici d’aquest rol. El quart, analitzar les posicions de l’acadèmic d’infermeria i les tensions experimentades durant una situació de transició. Els resultats relatius al primer estudi indiquen que les infermeres consideren necessari un perfeccionament continu i específic per a l’exercici d’aquest nou rol. Pel que fa al segon, els acadèmics d’infermeria busquen un equilibri entre la docència i la investigació i se senten desafiades a desenvolupar teories i models en la seva pròpia disciplina. Pel que fa al tercer, la identitat professional d’aquestes infermeres en el camp acadèmic està encara en construcció i la inexperiència és el major obstacle que afronten per a gestionar els incidents crítics en el treball docent. Finalment els resultats del quart i últim estudi indiquen que, la identificació de certes contradiccions durant una situació de transició és d’una gran utilitat per evitar a posteriori el desenvolupament d’incidents crítics, o discontinuïtats en la pràctica docent. L’existència de la denominada identitat novell de l’acadèmic d’infermeria en el rol d’investigació es presenta com la principal conclusió d’aquest estudi. Es suposa que, conjuntament amb la necessitat d’accedir a continguts específics en pedagogia i didàctica, i una preparació adequada en la gestió d’incidents crítics a l’aula, es precisa d’una formació especialitzada en el desenvolupament de les habilitats i competències que posicionen a aquest professional en el terreny de la investigació. Ens referim a la implementació de programes orientats al desenvolupament de competències per investigar en ciències biomèdiques, que permetin donar resposta als problemes que afecten aquesta àrea d’exercici, i per últim que contribueixin a millorar la construcció de la identitat de l’acadèmic d’infermeria.<br>El proceso de construcción de la identidad de la enfermera se inicia con el estudio de la carrera y se consolida durante la práctica profesional; no obstante, la construcción de una identidad como académico en el ámbito de la enfermería, supone una trayectoria menos institucionalizada, que comienza habitalmente cuando se accede a la docencia universitaria. Ello requiere el desempeño en áreas para las que fue escasamente preparada durante su formación. Por otra parte, el rol de investigador aparece en los últimos años también con fuerza en los estudios de enfermería, y en el contexto actual constituye una nueva dimensión que se añade a la docente, y requiere a su vez la construcción y desarrollo de elementos identitarios específicos. Teniendo en cuenta las consideraciones precedentes, esta investigación tuvo como propósito indagar en los procesos de construcción de la identidad docente e investigadora del académico de enfermería, con la finalidad de promover el desarrollo y la adaptación de las enfermeras a los retos que plantea la situación universitaria actual. Para el logro de este objetivo se realizaron cuatro estudios, todos ellos realizados a través de un diseño descriptivo e interpretativo, el primero con enfermeras que trabajaban en docencia en dos Universidades de Chile, y los otros tres con enfermeras de diferentes Universidades de Catalunya. La recogida de datos se hizo a través de entrevistas semi - estructuradas y el registro de diarios narrativos semanales por parte de las participantes. El objetivo del primer estudio consistió en identificar cómo las enfermeras dedicadas a la docencia construyen su identidad profesional en este rol. El segundo, profundizó en los constructos identitarios del académico de enfermería respecto a los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje y la investigación en enfermería. El tercero, tuvo por finalidad incluir el análisis de los incidentes críticos y sus estrategias de afrontamiento en el ejercicio de este rol. El cuarto, analizar las posiciones del académico de enfermería y las tensiones experimentadas durante una situación de transición. Los resultados relativos al primer estudio indican que las enfermeras consideran necesario un perfeccionamiento continuo y específico para el ejercicio de este nuevo rol. Con respecto al segundo, que los académicos de enfermería buscan un equilibrio entre la docencia y la investigación y se sienten desafiadas a desarrollar teorías y modelos en su propia disciplina. En cuanto al tercero, la identidad profesional de estas enfermeras en el campo académico está aún en construcción y la inexperiencia es el mayor obstáculo que enfrentan para gestionar los incidentes críticos en el trabajo docente. Finalmente los resultados del cuarto y último estudio indican que, la identificación de ciertas contradicciones durante una situación de transición profesional es de gran utilidad para evitar a posteriori el desarrollo de incidentes críticos, o discontinuidades en la práctica docente. La existencia de la denominada identidad novel del académico de enfermería en el rol de investigación se presenta como la principal conclusión de este estudio. Esto supone que, conjuntamente con la necesidad de acceder a contenidos específicos en pedagogía y didáctica, y una preparación adecuada en la gestión de los incidentes críticos en el aula, se precisa de una formación especializada en el desarrollo de habilidades y competencias que posicionen a este profesional en el terreno de la investigación. Nos referimos a la implementación de programas orientados al desarrollo de competencias para investigar en las ciencias biomédicas, que permita dar respuesta a los problemas que afectan esta área de desempeño, y en último término contribuyan a mejorar la construcción de la identidad del académico de enfermería.<br>Nurses’ identity construction process starts in the undergraduate studies and strengthens in the professional practice. Nevertheless, the construction of an identity as a nursing teacher implies a less institutionalized trajectory. It begins after accessing university teaching and requires nurses to work in areas for which they were scarcely prepared during their training. On the other hand, in the last years the role of researcher also gained importance in nursing studies and nowadays it constitutes a new dimension of nursing teachers’ profession. In turn, it requires the construction and development of specific identity elements. Taking into account the previous considerations, this research aimed at enquiring into the processes of construction of nursing academics’ identity in order to promote nurses’ development and adaptation to the challenges of this new discipline. To fulfill this objective, we conducted four studies based on a descriptive and interpretative design, the first one with nurses teaching in two Chilean universities, and the other three with nurses of different Catalan universities. Data collection consisted in semi-structured interviews and weekly narrative diaries completed by the participants. The goal of the first paper was to identify how nurses are building their new teacher identity. The second study deepened in the analysis of how nurses represent their role as nursing academics and their conceptions, strategies and feelings involved in teaching-learning and research in nursing. In the third we analyzed the professional identity of academics in Nursing through the analysis of the most perturbing critical incidents. And the last paper aimed at analyzing academic nursing’ positions and the tensions experienced during a transition process. The results of the first study show that nurses think that they need continuous development in order to perform their new role, while the second shows that the nursing academics look for a balance between teaching and research and they also wish to promote the development of models and theories in their discipline. Regarding the third study, we found that nurses' professional identity in relation to the academic area is still under construction and that inexperience is the greatest obstacle in the management of critical incidents in the teaching task. Finally the results of the fourth study indicate that the identification of certain contradictions during a professional transition was very useful to avoid ‘a posteriori’ the appearance of critical incidents or discontinuities in the teaching practice. The existence of the so-called nursing academics’ novel identity in the role of research is highlighted as the main conclusion of this thesis. This implies that, together with the need to access to pedagogical and didactical specific contents and proper trainings for the management of critical incidents in the classroom, a specialized training for the development of abilities and competences that help professional position themselves in the field of research is required. We refer to the implementation of a program oriented towards the development of research competences in biomedical sciences, which would allow participants to solve problems related to this area and, ultimately, contribute to the improvement of the construction of nursing academics’ identity.

Esta tesis describe la experiencia del y de la estudiante de enfermería en su prácticum clínico, la relación pedagógica entre estudiante y enfermero/a, el papel que ésta desempeña en su formación clínica en diferentes dimensiones: desarrollo del razonamiento y habilidades clínicas, elaboración de significados en torno al acto de cuidar, fortalecimiento de cualidades relacionales y éticas, reflexión sobre sí como cuidador y la integración de estas dimensiones en las situaciones clínicas —en la interacción con la persona hospitalizada—. Se trata de una investigación educativa inscrita desde una perspectiva teórica fenomenológico-hermenéutica y desde una aproximación metodológica etnográfica. El trabajo de campo fue desarrollado en el marco de las asignaturas Practicum Hospitalario II y Estades Clíniques II y las prácticas clínicas de las/os estudiantes de enfermería en una Escuela Universitaria de Enfermería y un Hospital Universitario desde marzo de 2011 hasta febrero de 2012; las estrategias de recogida de datos fueron la observación no participante, la observación participante, la conversación informal, la entrevista en profundidad y los materiales escritos. Los ejes cualitativos emergentes fueron: la relación estudiante-enfermera/o como núcleo de partida para el desarrollo de la práctica clínica y la convergencia de significados entre estudiante y enfermera tutora respecto a la formación en el cuidar competente en enfermería. La relación pedagógica que está por el/la estudiante es concebida en el presente estudio como una relación de cuidado que le proporciona seguridad, confianza y autonomía. Es el núcleo de partida para el desarrollo del razonamiento clínico, el pensamiento reflexivo, las habilidades clínicas, el sentido de saliencia, la construcción de significados de manera convergente en torno al acto de cuidar a otra persona de manera holística y situada, y el favorecimiento de la práctica autónoma de el/la estudiante en inter-acciones de cuidado competentes reflexivas, científicas, dialógicas (intersubjetivas) y éticas con/en la persona hospitalizada.<br>This thesis describes the nursing student experience in her/his clinical practicum, the pedagogical relationship between student and nurse, the role that she/he plays in her/his clinical training in different dimensions: development of reasoning and clinical skills, meanings elaboration around the act of caring, strengthening of relational and ethical qualities, self-reflection as a caretaker and the integration of these dimensions in clinical situations-on interaction with the hospitalized person. This is an educational research enrolled from a theoretical phenomenologicalhermeneutic perspective and from an ethnographic methodological approach. Fieldwork was developed in the framework of the courses “Practicum Hospitalario II and Estades Clíniques II” and clinical practices of the nursing students in a Nursing University School and a university Hospital from March 2011 until February 2012, the data collection strategies were non-participant observation, participant observation, informal conversation, in-depth interviews and written materials. The emerging qualitative axes were: the student-nurse relationship as starting center for the development of clinical practice and the meanings convergence between student and tutor nurse regarding training in competent nursing care. The pedagogical relationship which is by the student is conceived in this study as a care relationship that provides security, confidence and independence. It is the core base for the development of clinical reasoning, reflective thinking, clinical skills, sense of salience, the meanings construction in a convergent way around act of caring for another person in a holistically and located, and favoring student autonomous practice in care inter-actions reflective, competent, scientific, dialogical (intersubjective) and ethical with the hospitalized person.

<p> Currently, the same criteria are being used for admissions into nursing programs in one school of nursing in the Northeastern United States. To date there are no statistically significant data to correlate these criteria with successfully entering the nursing profession. Due to the nursing shortage, limited number of seats available in nursing programs, low nurse retention, and high nursing school attrition rates, it is necessary to use an admissions process designed to select the candidates who are most likely to succeed on the NCLEX-RN, and enter into the nursing profession. A latent class analysis was used, and revealed that the ideal candidate was found to be an individual who is either an optimistic, full-time student, who earned a high ACT score, and had a career prior to enrolling into the nursing program, or was an optimistic, part-time student, who earned a low ACT score, and had a career prior to enrolling into the nursing program. A survey provided further insight and the responses indicated applicants who self-reported that they: have good judgment, seek out challenges, are capable of anything, are professional, are optimist, need to utilize what is learned, are ethical in nature, are able to recover quickly for failure, are motivated by intrinsic factors, are self-directed, complete what they start, have a sense of team-awareness, admit to mistakes, are resilient, have a sense of spiritual well-being, and possess leadership qualities, ultimately entered into the nursing profession. </p><p>

Reputation management involves more than just image, identity and brand management. There is a definitive link between stakeholders within an organisation and its reputation, since those stakeholders can make or break the reputation of any organisation in any industry in all corners of the globe. The goal of this study is to analyse the reputation of the nursing profession by applying Davies, Chun, Da Silva and Roper's (2003) corporate reputation chain (CRC) model. The study concentrated on the motive for students wanting to enter the nursing profession within the public health sector in the Western Cape region in South Africa, the context of the nursing profession and its (negative) reputation, as defined by Chun et al. (2003), as well as the recruitment and retention of nurses. South Africa has unveiled plans for new clinics and hospitals across the country to meet the health needs of all citizens who use public health facilities. These hospitals and clinics need to be fully staffed. However, great care needs to be taken in selecting staff to work at these facilities. That selection process should begin by scrutinising the type of person who enters the profession. A qualitative exploratory design was adopted in this study, which used an electronic (closed and open-ended) survey with 27 statements/questions. The sample population for the survey consisted of 249 fourth-year students enrolled in the R425 Diploma in Nursing programme at the Western Cape College of Nursing. The objectives of the study were met, in that it succeeded in determining the motivation for students choosing nursing. The results showed that, although most of the respondents were positive about the profession, a significant proportion of them would have preferred other careers. There was also a definite disparity between students' perception of how the public views nurses and their own personal views of the profession. The research findings created the basis for the Nursing Reputation Management Framework and recommendations that may be applied in practice and have a positive impact on the nursing profession's reputation as well as the recruitment and retention of nurses in South Africa. Changing the negative reputation of nursing should rest in the hands of the profession itself. Nurses can therefore use these findings to rebrand themselves in a meaningful way that will have positive outcomes for their patients. Nurses need to change their own image and identity in order to change the negative perceptions/images of others, in particular that of the media and patients.<br>Mini Dissertation (MPhil)--University of Pretoria, 2017.<br>Communication Management<br>MPhil<br>Unrestricted
