ABSTRACT
The performance evaluation models proposed in the scientific literature to support the decision-making process in the context of sustainability in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) present gaps with respect to the design process. In relation, to the management of environmental education in HEIs, there is an absence of decision support models. In this context, the objective of the research is to build a model for evaluating the performance of environmental education for an undergraduate course at a public university. It is a case study, with data collection through interviews with the Course Coordinator, complemented by questionnaires and documental analysis. The intervention instrument used was the Multicriteria Methodology for Decision Aiding-Constructivist (MCDA-C). The main results were explored showing the process of building a performance evaluation model, considering the singularity of the context, the flexibility in the elaboration process and interactivity with different stakeholders. Additionally, efforts were focused on the presentation of the final assessment model, demonstrating the potential of the MCDA-C methodology as a practical tool to support the decision-making process, and on the discussion of the model developed in relation to the literature reviewed. The model built allows the decision maker to understand the environmental education intertwined with the course, to assess the current situation and the desired end state, as well as the necessary actions for its management. In addition to the constructivist perspective, the model meets the Stakeholder Theory; explains the advantages, using participatory approach methodologies and performance indicators have characteristics of a functional system.
ABSTRACT
Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) data indicate that the elderly population of Brazil numbering 11% in 2003, will attain 33.7% by 2060. This aging process can be diagnosed from the capability workers possess for their labor activities. ProKnow-C was used to conduct the review, carrying out bibliometric and systemic analysis of the literature on the subject. The results led to the compilation of a portfolio with 29 papers, highlighting the most relevant journals, authors and keywords. Systemic analysis provided important results: survey methodology was applied on 26 papers, 21 of which were cross-sectional studies; in all the papers the WAI was associated with sociodemographic data; in 10 studies it was found that the work ability decreased while age increased and the practice of physical exercises was positively associated with the WAI in 11 studies. The results led to the perception that the WAI is an instrument that makes it possible to diagnose the situation of the working life of employees, and, in the case of low rates, the presence of early functional aging is detected. The study highlighted the importance of assessing aspects of the worker's social life, since these factors influence the work ability positively or negatively.
Dados do IBGE apontam que a população idosa do Brasil que era de 11%, em 2013, passará a ser de 33,7%, em 2060. Este processo de envelhecimento pode ser diagnosticado a partir da capacidade que o trabalhador dispõe para suas atividades laborais. Para realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre o tema, utilizou-se o PROKNOW-C, realizando a análise bibliométrica e sistêmica da literatura. Os resultados levaram a constituição de um portfólio com 29 artigos, destacando-se os periódicos de maior relevância, autores e palavras-chaves. A análise sistêmica proporcionou importantes resultados: a metodologia survey foi aplicada em 26 artigos; 21 estudos são cortes transversais; constatou-se que em 10 estudos a capacidade para o trabalho diminui com o avanço da idade e a prática de exercícios físicos foi associada positivamente com o ICT em 11 estudos. Os resultados confirmam que o ICT é um instrumento que permite diagnosticar a situação da vida laboral dos trabalhadores, e, em caso de baixos índices, a presença de um envelhecimento funcional precoce. O estudo possibilitou ressaltar a importância de avaliar aspectos da vida social do trabalhador, uma vez que estes fatores influenciam positiva ou negativamente na capacidade para o trabalho.
