Good requirements are commonly viewed as a key success factor for IT (and non-IT) projects, but still there seems to be insufficient insight into which competences requirements engineers need to have these days. Digitalization is likely to pose new challenges to requirements engineering. Chances are that digitalization will change the competences that are necessary for successful requirements engineering. This paper proposes a research design that will be used for clarifying which competences requirements engineers need nowadays and how these competences change due to digitalization. To that end, qualitative and quantitative research methods will be combined for developing a comprehensive competence profile for requirements engineering on a scientific basis. The resulting competence profile constitutes a starting point for devising competence-oriented learning settings. Thus, our research contributes to a better understanding of competences for requirements engineering and improves education of future requirements engineers, in particular for coping with challenges posed by digitalization.

Abstract: Introduction: Sexuality is characterized as a device of power and Medicine plays a key role as one of the main action institutions. Medical education tends to ratify the heteronormative discourse and diagnose deviant patterns as a pathology. It is based on the binary categorization of individuals as an implication of their sexuality. The assessed medical course assumes the methodological proposal of the constructivist spiral, which seeks to guarantee the protagonism of the students, as well as the dialogue with their previous knowledge, using the concept of Meaningful Learning. Objective: To analyze the students’ experiences in the development of the competence profile related to gender and sexuality during medical school. Method: It is a qualitative research using focus groups with students attending the sixth year of the medical course. Result: The study indicates the students’ perception of the importance of active methodologies, as well as the early inclusion in the fields of practice. However, the thematic of gender and sexuality needs to be proposed in the list of triggers for the use of the constructivist spiral. Conclusion: The active teaching-learning methodologies can constitute a counter-hegemonic strategy in the face of the device of sexuality in guaranteeing biopower, as there is a reorientation of these contents in the curriculum.

ABSTRACT Objective: to estimate the validity of the competence profile content developed for the training of the generalist nurse in the health and administrative and managerial attention areas. Method: descriptive study, with quantitative approach. The data collection and validation occurred through the Delphi technique, in a virtual way, with questionnaire sent by e-mail, between April and May 2016, with the participation of 28 professional judges and 26 nursing specialists judges from all regions of the country. For the calculation of the degree of agreement among the answers of the experts, signed in at least 70% for the Content Validity Index, and the binomial test for dichotomous analysis of the proportion of the answers of the specialists. Results: considering the 14 items of the care area profile, a content degree of 93% by professional area and 97% by education area was obtained. The 18 items of the administrative and management profile were approved with a degree of agreement of 95% by the professional area and 99% by the education area. Conclusion: the competence profile validated in content may help undergraduate nursing courses in the country and is a safe educational tool, aiming at the implementation of the Course Pedagogical Projects.
