This paper specifies competences and skills of methodologically rational decision making and their impact on security of organisations. The study indicates some reasons for developing the competencies and skills in education, professional development and taking them into account in the recruitment. It is the practical aim of this paper. Its scientific aim is to formulate and to partly justify general hypotheses concerning the impact of methodologically rational and irrational attitudes of members of organisations on their security. We apply the method of ideal types of Max Weber and phenomenological analyses, which concern intentionality of methodologically rational and irrational mental attitudes.

In England many professional healthcare qualifications, including nursing, are only achievable through higher education, for which tuition fees are payable from this year (2017-18) onwards. This paper is concerned about maintaining both the number and diversity of healthcare professionals to meet the needs of a diverse and ageing population. It reviews student views and the available statistical evidence about the impact of the introduction of tuition fees on applicants, and literature and empirical evidence about what higher education institutions are doing to recruit and retain students from different backgrounds to meet the health needs of the population. It concludes that because professions such as nursing have traditionally recruited from a diverse population minimal knowledge or practical expertise has been developed to widen participation in healthcare education in general and nurse education in particular. Moving forward, the healthcare and higher education sectors will need to work in joined up ways to develop strategies to both attract and retain a wide range of diverse students to higher education professional healthcare qualification courses – and maintain the supply of qualified healthcare professionals.

ResumoEste artigo objetiva analisar as contribuições de pesquisas sobre a formação de professores e o impacto dessa formação no manejo de situações de bullying na escola. Com o propósito de embasar essa análise, efetuou-se uma revisão sistemática em trabalhos indexados nas bases de dados: Scielo, Portal de Periódicos Capes e no Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações da Capes, no período de 2009 a 2019. Utilizando-se de critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram selecionadas 28 publicações. As respectivas publicações foram lidas na íntegra. Como procedimento de análise dos trabalhos selecionados empregou-se a técnica de Análise Textual Discursiva, conforme Moraes e Galiazzi (2006). Do processo analítico emergiram três categorias: i) Práxis pedagógica; ii) Políticas públicas e educação escolar; e iii) Práticas construtivistas na formação de professores. Cada categoria foi constituída por sistematizações que compreendem perspectivas de formação de professores que poderiam contribuir na melhoria da e na prática do profissional em relação ao manejo de situações de bullying na escola. As pesquisas identificadas destacam, dentre as perspectivas de formação de professores, as que oportunizem aos profissionais conhecimentos teórico-práticos; a utilização de situações-problemas da própria escola, do cotidiano, como mobilizadores de processos de aprendizagem, da reflexão e tomada de decisões em relação ao manejo dessas situações; a valorização de momentos de trocas entre profissionais, da bagagem cultural, das experiências e vivências dos professores para encaminhar situações-problema de maneira mais assertiva.Palavras-chave: Bullying. Formação de professores. Perspectivas de formação. Revisão sistemática. AbstractThe following article aims to analyze the contributions of researches on teacher training and the impact of this education on the management of bullying situations in the school environment.

The phenomena accompanying the impact of large meteorites on the surface of the Moon or of the Earth can be examined on the basis of the theory of explosive phenomena if we assume that, instead of an exploding meteorite moving inside the rock, we have an explosive charge (equivalent in energy), situated at a certain distance under the surface.

The term geo-sciences has been used here to include the disciplines geology, geophysics and geochemistry. However, in order to apply geophysics and geochemistry effectively one must begin with a geological model. Therefore, the science of geology should be used as the basis for lunar exploration. From an astronomical point of view, a lunar terrain heavily impacted with meteors appears the more reasonable; although from a geological standpoint, volcanism seems the more probable mechanism. A surface liberally marked with volcanic features has been advocated by such geologists as Bülow, Dana, Suess, von Wolff, Shaler, Spurr, and Kuno. In this paper, both the impact and volcanic hypotheses are considered in the application of the geo-sciences to manned lunar exploration. However, more emphasis is placed on the volcanic, or more correctly the defluidization, hypothesis to account for lunar surface features.
