Despite the increasing number of Public-Private Partnerships projects, the results have shown little effectiveness and difficulties in several aspects of project management. This study performs a systematic literature review combining bibliometric analysis and content analysis to identify the challenges in managing these projects and techniques to overcome them, highlighting the critical success factors for project management. The results indicate an increasing number of researches in the field, but there is still a lack of systematization of the management tools and absence of critical success factors during the accomplishment of this type of project. This study proposes a systematization of these elements throughout the project cycle, allowing project managers to visualize challenges and techniques to increase the results related to the main success factors of each stage.
Maker activities have become popular in schools from the growing practice of projectbased learning and the development of socio-emotional skills, using various technologies such as woodwork, electronics, programming, 3D printers and other digital fabrication tools. These practices are understood as an extension of engineering education in the context of K-12 education, not only through the use of engineering technologies, but above all because they use design thinking and an iteration oriented approach. In this sense, as expected results of these school practices are not only the contribution to more experimental and interdisciplinary learning through creative projects, but also the development of creative problem solving competence, as part of the context of developing socioemotional skills for a "21st century education". Because these activities are at the interface between engineering and the educational process in K-12 education, although well-grounded academically, such practices lack real cases and implementation guidance.Therefore, this work proposes to analyze multiple case studies to compose an understanding of the intentions towards the maker project, results achieved so far and main critical factors found during implementation, contrasting the data with the literature and thus compiling valuable lessons to other school that intend to follow the same path.
A abordagem de ensino baseado em projetos no contexto de engenharia e design tem se popularizado. O campo da gestão de projetos sinaliza a competência de resiliência como fundamental para líderes do século XXI e para equipes envolvidas em projetos complexos, mas há ainda lacunas de pesquisa nessa área. Este estudo se propôs a investigar a relação entre resiliência e qualidade de projetos de engenharia e design. A abordagem metodológica mescla estratégias de pesquisa qualitativa e quantitativa junto a alunos e professores de escolas particulares brasileiras que possuem um espaço de prototipagem para realização desse tipo de projeto. Os resultados apontam correlações positivas entre resiliência e qualidade de projeto.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
