No ambiente de convergência de mídias e digitalização dos meios, uma das tendências da televisão brasileira tem sido a adoção de estratégias transmídias, sobretudo, em formatos com grande apelo à interatividade, como o reality show. Apoiados em Fechine e Figueirôa (2011), entendemos a transmidiação como um modelo de produção que se funda na “reiteração, pervasividade e distribuição em distintas plataformas tecnológicas (TV, cinema, internet, celular, etc.) de conteúdos associados cuja articulação está ancorada na cultura participativa estimulada pelos meios digitais”. Partindo desse conceito e levando em consideração o cenário da cultura da convergência, descrita por Jenkins (2008), este trabalho tem por objetivo problematizar as estratégias transmídias no Big Brother Brasil, principal reality show da televisão brasileira, exibido pela Rede Globo desde 2002. Baseado nos estudos do audiovisual, da convergência e da transmidiação, o trabalho propõe uma categorização das estratégias e dos conteúdos transmídias do Big Brother Brasil baseada na observação sistemática das edições de 2013 e 2014.
In media convergence environment and digitization of media, one of the Brazilian television trends has been the adoption of transmídias strategies, especially in formats with great appeal to the interactivity, as the reality show. Based in Fechine and Figueirôa (2011), we understand the transmediation as a production model that is based on the "repetition, pervasiveness and distribution in different technological platforms (TV, cinema, internet, mobile, etc.) content associated whose pivot is anchored in participatory culture stimulated by digital means". Based on this concept and taking into account the convergence culture scene, described by Jenkins (2008), this research aims to analyze the strategies transmídias in Big Brother Brazil, main reality show on Brazilian television, broadcast by Rede Globo since 2002. Based in audiovisual studies, convergence and transmediation, the paper proposes a categorization strategies and transmídias content of Big Brother Brazil based on systematic observation of the 2013 and 2014 editions.

Full textAs emissoras de televisão sustentam o seu negócio na entrega de audiências aos anunciantes. Conhecer o comportamento do telespectador permite desenvolver melhor a oferta televisiva, alcançar maiores audiências e aumentar o valor que os anunciantes estarão dispostos a pagar pela sua atenção. Esta investigação aborda um programa do género reality show, o qual consiste na exposição da vida de outras pessoas, com o propósito de entreter o espectador. Em Portugal, o programa Big Brother acabou com a hegemonia da SIC sobre o mercado televisivo português e ajudou a consolidar a programação da TVI, tornando o terceiro player do mercado no líder nacional. Hoje, estas duas maiores empresas de televisão batalham novamente pela liderança de audiências no mercado em horário nobre. O Big Brother VIP foi a maneira que a TVI encontrou para competir com a bem-sucedida novela Dancin' Days, da SIC. Este estudo permitiu perceber que o consumidor pretende gratificar as suas necessidades por autenticidade e voyeurismo. Gosta de comédia e interacção social entre concorrentes e abomina manipulação. Foi ainda analisado o comportamento do espectador regular, o que influencia o consumo das Galas de Expulsão e de Nomeações e o que condiciona as gratificações do espectador ao ver o programa. Identificaram-se, ainda, quatro perfis do consumidor e o concorrente ideal foi descrito como sendo leal, sociável e divertido, preocupado com o bem-estar do grupo, curioso, ambicioso, orientado para a família, que não dependa de terceiros para ser feliz, saiba viver humildemente, saudável, ascético, com tendências igualitaristas, auto-confiante e cooperante.
Television broadcasting companies sustain their business by delivering audiences to advertisers. Knowing audience behavior allows them to better develop the television offer, to attain higher audiences and to increase the value marketers are willing to pay for televiewers attention. This research approaches a reality show television programme which aims to explore the lives of other people in an entertaining manner for the viewer. Portuguese Big Brother ended up with SIC's hegemony over the portuguese television market and helped to consolidate TVI's schedule based on popular information and national drama fiction (novella) which turned the third television player into the national leader. Today these two biggest broadcasting companies are again battling over leadership of primetime's ratings. Big Brother VIP was the way that TVI found to compete against the well succeeded SIC's novella Dancin' Days. This study allowed to access the way the televiewer reacts to the show and made it possible to understand that the consumer wants to gratify its authenticity and voyeuristic needs. He/she likes comedy and social interaction between contestants and abominates manipulation. The results allowed to understand the regular viewer's behavior, what makes people watch the eviction and nominating shows and what influences the gratifications sought by watching the show. There were obtained four viewer profiles as well and the ideal contestant was defined as loyal, sociable and funny, concerned with others well-being, curious, ambitious, family-oriented, don't depends on others to be happy, humble, healthy, ascetic and denotes egalitarian tendencies.

Full textThis dissertation deals with Swedish upper secondary school students’ encounter and reception of various fictional texts in and outside of school. The focus of the study is how literary instruction, based on an expanded text concept, succeeds in meeting the students’ expectations and previous experiences of fictional texts. The theoretical framework consists of theories that approach reading as a transaction between text and reader in a social and cultural context.
The study is founded on qualitative methods, and the empirical material was collected through participant observation and interviews with students and teachers in four upper secondary school classes between 2001 and 2003. The research questions are: How does literary instruction develop students’ knowledge of fictional texts and reading? In what ways are the students’ textual worlds in and outside of school dialogically interrelated? How do students use different fictional texts in building their identities? Which values regarding different texts are visible in the classroom?
Findings indicate that mismatches between teachers’ and students’ literary repertoires are common in upper secondary school literary teaching. Since the literary instruction mainly drew upon traditional fiction, the students’ construction of literary worlds was not sufficiently supported. The students’ expectations of fiction reading were characterized by strong emotional involvement, and this was particularly true for the male students. The female students reported that there was a lack of female perspectives in the literary teaching.
The pedagogical implications of the study concern the importance of identifying the students’ literary repertoires and matching those with the literary instruction. Literary pedagogy should aim to expand these repertoires, and to help students acquire new reader roles. One way of achieving this is to promote dialogical teaching that encourages both efferent and aesthetic reading. Findings of the present study also indicate that teachers’ resources for working with an expanded text concept are limited. Consequently, current teacher education programmes and further training of working teachers must deal with reading of fictional texts from new and broader perspectives.

Full textO presente trabalho tem como objetivo principal observar o modo pelo qual os participantes de um programa de reality show constroem e performam personagens de si mesmos, guiando suas ações para as câmeras televisivas e, conseqüentemente, para um público com o qual não estabelecem um contato direto. Para tentarmos responder ao problema proposto, foi preciso, inicialmente, discutir alguns conceitos e noções que despontaram como fundamentais para a construção de nossa análise empírica, como televisão, mediação e representações sociais. Olhamos para a televisão como o espaço privilegiado para se observar a dinâmica das representações sociais. É justamente a recorrência de algumas representações nos programas televisivos que nos permite classifica-los em determinados gêneros e formatos. Neste contexto, tomamos o reality show como um gênero televisivo próprio e Big Brother Brasil, o exemplo por nós escolhido, como um de seus formatos. Talvez tal programa seja o que melhor evidencie o problema das performances encenadas para as câmeras. Os participantes de programas como BBB, para serem bem sucedidos em suas auto-encenações, têm que trabalhar, concomitantemente, com pelo menos três tipos de enquadramentos interacionais: as interações com os demais participantes, marcadas pelo confinamento e pelo jogo proposto pelo formato; as interações com os produtores e o apresentador; e, as interações com público, mediadas pelas câmeras. Depois de mapearmos esses enquadramentos, pudemos configurar nosso corpus analítico: foram selecionados treze episódios da terceira versão de BBB, em que observamos com maior atenção o desempenho da performance de seis participantes específicos.

Full textL'identité d'aidante naturelle des taïwanaises avec frères ou sœurs atteints de paralysie cérébrale Résumé Cette étude a examiné l'identité d'aidante naturelle des taïwanaises qui prennent soin de leurs frères ou sœurs atteints de paralysie cérébrale. Elle est basée sur 12 interviews détaillées avec 6 femmes âgées d'au moins 20 ans. Ces dernières se sont identifiées soit comme les uniques sœurs des personnes atteintes de paralysie cérébrale ou encore comme les personnes les plus impliquées dans la provision de soins. Les résultats de cette étude suggèrent que la provision de soins présents et futurs aux frères ou sœurs atteints de paralysie cérébrale est un phénomène complexe qui contribue à la perception de soi de ces femmes. Ce phénomène est influencé par quatre processus associés à la provision des soins : (a) soins par interprétation (b) soins par transformation (c) soins par protection (d) soins par sacrifice. L'implication dans ces quatre processus a crée pour ces femmes des considérations uniques et des tensions dans d'autres domaines de leur vie. Plus précisément, ces tensions sont liées à la négociation des relations avec leurs mères, à leurs choix de conjoints, à la répudiation de leurs droits à la succession, ainsi qu'à leurs aspirations et attentes relatives à la provision de soins continus à leurs frères ou sœurs atteints de paralysie cérébrale après le mariage. Étant donné que les femmes ont assimilé la division du travail dans leurs familles et dans leur culture, et qu'elles continuent à vivre dans un système qui demande que les mères et les sœurs s'impliquent dans les soins familiaux, plus d'attention doit être accordée à la promotion d'un partage plus équitable des soins prodigués par les hommes et les femmes dans les familles. Plus d'attention doit aussi être portée au développement de politiques de soins à long terme adaptés à la société taïwanaise.

Full textThe following study explored the experiences of Ghanaian adult siblings of a brother or sister with a mental disability in Accra, Ghana. The literature review included international and multidisciplinary research on culture, Ghana, Ghanaian culture, family caregiver experiences, and adult siblings of individuals with a mental disability. A descriptive phenomenological design was employed to capture and describe the essence of the experiences of the participants of this study. The primary research question explored through this design was: what is the experience of being an adult sibling of a brother or sister with a mental disability in Ghana? The secondary research question was: what are the factors that impact the adult caregiver in caring for the sibling with a mental disability in Ghana? A purposeful sampling method was used to recruit 15 adult siblings of an individual with a mental disability with the assistance of a school for individuals with special needs located in Accra, Ghana. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect the data for this study. Five themes were identified in relation to the primary research question: 1) impact on self, 2) sibling relationship, 3) family, 4) interactions with society, and 5) caregiver. In answer to the secondary research question, several factors were found to impact the adult siblings in caring for their brother or sister: level of care needed, total number of siblings, sibling rank order, age, gender, parents living or passed, parental status, and financial status. The results of the study were discussed in relation to the reviewed literature, implications for the findings, and recommendations for future research were included. This study added to existing body of international psychology literature, demonstrated the importance of attending to the influence of culture when seeking to understand the experiences and needs of adult siblings of a brother or sister with a mental disability, and has the potential to inform systems of support for Ghanaian siblings of individuals with mental disabilities.

Full textThis study will assess Stanley Hauerwas's claim that peacemaking is a virtue of the church in which peace exists as a necessary characteristic of the church. Christians are formed by practices of the church and so gain the skills required to live faithfully in the world. Such formation teaches us to be truthful and to be at peace. Peace is not only part of this formation; it is this formation. Such formation is based on the present existence of peace in the church through Christ. Not only is peace a part of the local and catholic church but war has been abolished through Christ. Hauerwas claims theology as a legitimate discourse in relation to social and physical sciences. Theology has its primary locus in the church rather than in ahistorical accounts or the university. This claiming of the language of the church creates space for particularity which is often subsumed under the universalizing assertions of the nation-state. With peace as a characteristic of the church, Hauerwas asserts that peacemaking is a virtue of the church and not merely an optional aspect of its life.

Full textThe impact of sport participation among youth is a widely discussed phenomenon. Researchers argue that sport participation can contribute to both positive and negative impact. The aim of this study is to find out how youth in a disadvantaged community in South Africa experience the social impact of sport. The data were collected through four group interviews with 24 youth (aged 16-20) who participated in three different teams; soccer, basketball and mountainbike. The result indicates that the respondents experienced an overall positive social impact from their sport participation. Six categories were identified as prominent in the result; acquire life skills, building friendship, emotional development, the importance of positive leadership, avoiding drugs and crime and support from the community.

Full textUppsatsen behandlar det relativt nya begreppet dokusåpa, med inriktning på kanal 5:s program Big Brother. Bakgrunden till ämnesvalet är att media gärna framställer Big Brother som något dåligt, som ungdomar kan ta efter. Det huvudsakliga syftet med studien är att få en insikt i hur 15-åringar hanterar Big Brother i vardagen. För att angripa ämnet ur ett sociologiskt perspektiv har vi bland annat använt oss av kommunikations-, postmodern och feministisk teori. Uppsatsen bygger på sjutton intervjuer som ger oss en inblick i just de intervjuades relation till Big Brother. Ämnen som berörs är ungdomarnas inlevelse i programmet, könsroller, verklighetsförankring, identifikation och varför och om det är viktigt att titta på Big Brother. Resultat som framkommer rör Big Brother som postmodernt fenomen, könsroller, identifikation och fiktion eller verklighet.

Full textGeorge Orwells roman 1984, vilken publicerades första gången 1949, är en framtidsvision om socialism som gått fel. Romanen utspelas i Oceania, en värld som styrs av ett oligarkiskt kollektiv, “Partiet,” vilket utövar absolut makt genom en utstuderad kombination av övervakningsteknik och teorin om “panoptisk” kontroll, ett begrepp sprunget ur av Jeremy Benthams fängelsemodell från sent 1700-tal, vilket återskapades av Michel Foucault i mitten av 1970-talet. Kombinationen av övervakningsteknologi och panopticism har i Oceanien skapat en totalitarianism som fungerar med automatik och förtrycker individuell identitet för att befästa statens makt. Denna uppsats närmar sig Orwells 1984 som en underförstådd kritik av Benthams arbete. Vidare identifier i romanen 1984 många av Foucault’s idéer om hur makt fungerar i en panoptisk struktur.

Full textThis thesis examines how to optimize intelligence sharing in a coalition by a thorough literature review and site visits to intelligence sharing organizations in order to establish best practices for multinational intelligence sharing. The newly established NATO SOF Headquarters (NSHQ) in Mons, Belgium was treated as a test case to validate their intelligence sharing procedures and structures in reference to the authors' identified best practices: mutual gains and benefits; trust; direct control; and accessibility and interoperability. Intelligence support to SOF is a decisive factor, when in conventional operations it often is not; therefore intelligence support to SOF is special - NATO SOF is no exception. The level of intelligence support to SOF normally only exists at the national level, due to bureaucratic obstacles, a need to protect sensitive sources and capabilities, and lack of trust. The NSHQ is experimenting with several innovative methods to enhance trust and streamline intelligence capability amongst NATO SOF forces. There are structural and organizational lessons learned from the establishment of the NSHQ that can be applied to future operations and coalitions.

Full textOpen your eyes and see. There is nothing more incredible than the act of visualizing the innumerous possibilities that are before our eyes: images, they are more than a combination of colors and forms, they produce meanings and, logically, symbols. From this production of images some questions can be raised, such as, what do they want to represent? This dissertation focuses the images transmitted on the television program Big Brother Brazil (BBB) in its tenth edition, which took place in 2010. When I started the research, the question that I, a television spectator and anthropologist, raised were: how are the discourses of femininity, masculinity and homosexuality reproduced? Above all, how the central model was reproduced hegemonic references? These references seem to subordinate, devalue and limit the plural existences of masculinity, femininity and homosexuality. Finally, I perceived that the fieldwork data did not only show the assumptions of normativity and the subjects were not completely framed, there were dislocations. Knowing that nothing is simple in the field of gender and sexuality, there were several tensions. The diversity proposed by the program had its limits. In proposing to denaturalize the BBB, I aimed to understand how an audiovisual product watched by the most varied social groups can influence, sediment or make one reflect on the formal conventions about gender and sexuality.
Abrir os olhos e ver. Não há nada mais incrível que o ato de enxergar as inúmeras possibilidades que estão diante dos nossos olhos: as imagens. Elas são mais que uma junção de cores e formas; produzem significado e, logicamente, símbolos. E desta produção de imagens pode-se fazer alguns questionamentos, como, o que elas querem representar? O interesse dessa dissertação permeou a análise do discurso das imagens transmitidas pelo programa de televisão Big Brother Brasil (BBB) em sua décima edição, ocorrida no ano de 2010. Ao iniciar a pesquisa, a questão que eu, telespectadora/antropóloga, levava comigo era: como se reproduziam os discursos da feminilidade, da masculinidade e da homossexualidade? Sobretudo, como se reproduzia o modelo central as referências hegemônicas? Essas referências pareciam subjugar, desvalorizar e limitar as existências plurais de masculinidade, feminilidade e homossexualidade. Ao final, percebi que os dados do campo não mostravam apenas os pressupostos da normatividade e os sujeitos não estavam completamente emoldurados; haviam deslocamentos. Sabendo que nada é simples no campo do gênero e da sexualidade, houveram diversas tensões. A diversidade proposta pelo programa teve o seu limite. Ao se propor desnaturalizar o BBB, pretendo compreender como um produto audiovisual assistido pelos mais variados grupos sociais pode influenciar, sedimentar ou colocar em reflexão as convenções formais quanto ao gênero e quanto à sexualidade.

Target of criticism from various sections of society, the Big Brother Brazil as object of study, allows looks from various academic aspects such as the Sociology, Anthropology and Psychology, and in the area of communication, can be analyzed from a range of possibilities to deal with the subject example the authors François Jost and Muniz Sodre. Among these possibilities, in this work, he started to study the Big Brother Brazil as televisual product and as a theoretical framework and is considered the television drama elements in order to understand if it is possible to find points of intersection between these two narratives. Therefore, it is important to consider that it is necessary to leave the common sense in which the shows realitys are empty and do not add value to society. As media products such attractions condense aspects involving not only the Brazilian people culture, considering its habits and behavior, but above all, which reconfigures media in a new genre that gives rise to an invented reality, being sold as reality only because it uses real aspects. In this study object of analysis, the construction of the characters worked, observing the physical or behavioral characteristics of the participants that were transmitted by the program production. In the same study, it was also observed that, both in the house parties, as the evidence leader and Angel, the productions performed by the direction of the program can be considered as performing structures from the understanding that such spaces are strategically prepared environments to generate the "stage" of events. The third and most important category of analysis consisted of the construction of three major narrative threads in search of participants to win the program. The first narrative thread refers to the relationship between Amanda and Fernando, the second main narrative thread is the involvement of Aline and Fernando, and the third main narrative thread discusses the lonely path of César Award winner in cash. It is thus understandable that the precise identification of these categories in the fifteenth edition of the reality provides a new perspective on the Big Brother Brazil as audiovisual product. This look not only demystifies the 'label' reality show presented by broadcaster as possible acceptance of television drama elements in this genre programs. Key-words: television; reality show; teledramaturgy
Alvo de críticas oriundas das mais variadas camadas da sociedade, o Big Brother Brasil, enquanto objeto de estudo, possibilita olhares das mais diversas vertentes acadêmicas a exemplo da Sociologia, da Antropologia e da Psicologia, e, na área da Comunicação, pode ser analisado a partir de um leque de possibilidades que tratam do tema a exemplo dos autores François Jost e Muniz Sodré. Dentre essas possibilidades, no presente trabalho, passou-se a estudar o Big Brother Brasil enquanto produto televisual e como arcabouço teórico e se considerou os elementos da teledramaturgia a fim de entender se é possível encontrar pontos de interseção entre essas duas narrativas. Para tanto, é importante considerar que é necessário sair do senso comum no qual os realitys shows são vazios e não agregam valor à sociedade. Como produtos midiáticos, tais atrações condensam aspectos que envolvem não apenas a cultura do povo brasileiro, considerando seus hábitos e comportamentos, mas, sobretudo, o que a mídia reconfigura em um novo gênero que dá origem a uma realidade inventada, sendo vendida como realidade apenas porque se utiliza de aspectos do real. Na análise do objeto deste estudo, trabalhou-se a construção dos personagens, observando-se as características físicas ou comportamentais dos participantes que eram transmitidas por parte da produção do programa. Ainda neste estudo, observou-se também que, tanto nas festas da casa, como nas provas do Líder e do Anjo, as produções realizadas pela direção do programa podem ser consideradas como estruturas cênicas a partir da compreensão de que tais espaços são ambientes preparados estrategicamente para gerar o “palco” dos acontecimentos. A terceira e mais relevante categoria de análise constituiu-se da construção de três fios narrativos principais na busca dos participantes em vencer o programa. O primeiro fio narrativo se refere ao relacionamento entre Amanda e Fernando, o segundo fio narrativo principal trata do envolvimento de Aline e Fernando, e o terceiro fio narrativo principal aborda a trajetória solitária de César, ganhador do prêmio em dinheiro. Compreende-se assim que a identificação precisa destas categorias na décima quinta edição do reality possibilita uma nova perspectiva a respeito do Big Brother Brasil enquanto produto audiovisual. Tal olhar não apenas desmitifica a ‘etiqueta’ de reality show apresentada pela emissora como possibilita a aceitação de elementos da teledramaturgia em programas deste gênero.

Full textMentoring has gained a great deal of popularity across various professional fields and disciplines over the past few years. More recently, planned mentoring has become an important form of intervention with young people (Philip, 2003). Although mentoring can be an effective strategy for dealing with youth, the mentoring is only as good as the relationship that develops out of the process between mentors and mentees and the match that is made between the two parties. The number of mentor programmes that is running continues to grow yet the quality of these programmes remains unknown as this area lacks agreed upon sets of standards and / bench marks that could be used to determine the effectiveness of these programmes (Sipe, 1988 -1995). The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the mentors' perceptions of the effectiveness of a mentor training programme run by Big Brother Big Sister South Africa.
