The first part of this article introduces the work engagement concept in a framework of the Job Demands-Resources Theory and discusses a relation between work engagement and job crafting. Next, the author presents the hypothesis that university education can form engaged employees by enhancing students’ self-efficacy beliefs about their ability to effectively crafting their future job environments. On the basis of the Social Learning Theory the author proposed three possible methods on how the university community could promote job crafting behaviors among students. These methods are: trainings and persuasions, modeling, or observation of how university top researchers work, and allowing students to experience success in changing different aspects of the university environment.

In this paper Facebook is examined as an educational tool that can be used to facilitate the development of literacy skills. The philosophical assumptions underlying the Social Development Theory by Vygotsky and the Social Learning Theory by Bandura were used to substantiate the benefits students can gain from learning in a social environment such as Facebook. Librarians can help students to develop their literacy skills, by using the Literature Circle on facebook. Assigning readers roles such as literary luminary, synthesizer, analyzer, and evaluator and rotating these roles will allow readers to develop the various literacy skills overtime and to avoid monotony.

Acceptance Model

Objetivo do estudo: Analisar os fatores que influenciam o conselho obtido em Comunidades de Viagem Online (CVO) na escolha do destino turístico.Metodologia/abordagem: Trata-se de uma pesquisa do tipo exploratório-descritiva com abordagem quantitativa. Utilizou-se de técnicas de análise estatística e métodos multivariados básicos e avançados como análise fatorial exploratória, confirmatória e modelagem de Equações Estruturais, a partir do Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).Originalidade/Relevância: Este estudo substancia os efeitos das dimensões do Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) e da confiança na intenção de seguir o conselho em CVO na escolha de um destino turístico. O Modelo Conceptual derivado desta pesquisa ajuda os profissionais a estimular o envolvimento do cliente a partir da perspectiva das interações de socialização baseadas na confiança e na atitude em relação à CVO.Contribuições teóricas/metodológicas: Ao escolherem a CVO como fonte de informação, viajantes sentem-se confiantes em receber conselhos. As dimensões de confiança (honestidade, benevolência, competência) expressam-se em aspectos de relacionamento mutuo entre os usuários, ao assumirem papel de parceiros na CVO. Ao integrar o TAM, nesse contexto, a confiança reforça a relevância e contribuição teórica de ser antecedente significativo da intenção no comportamento de viagem, sustentada pelo papel social e informal de comunicação em CVO.Principais resultados: A confiança na CVO mostra-se como principal antecedente a fim de formar a atitude em relação ao conselho obtido na CVO, na utilidade percebida do conselho e na intenção de seguir esse conselho na CVO. Por outro lado, a utilidade não demonstrou ser um fator determinante na atitude tampouco na intenção de seguir o conselho obtido na CVO.

Group Interviews

The study discusses homosexuality in Ghana. It has analyzed the interdisciplinary views of science, the social learning theory and religion on the phenomenon. The approach is mainly qualitative involving both individual and group interviews. Individual and group informants were respectively selected using purposeful and availability sampling designs in institutions, towns/cities, and secret homosexual parties. The findings were that homosexuality in Ghana portrays a learnt behavior; it is not genetically caused as some claim. Religiously, the phenomenon is seen as a sinful act. The study suggests ways that homosexuals can be helped to overcome their situation. The study is important because it highlights the state of homosexuality in Ghana and suggests helpful ways of dealing with it. It also contributes to existing local and global debates on the phenomenon.
