“…Thus, an emerging adult pupil's readiness to learn and willingness to actively participate in their education will increase when the course content seems germane to them personally (Bilimoria, 1998;Forrest & Peterson, 2006;J. A. Kolb, 1999;Ryland, 1998).…”

Management education research has provided educators with new instructional tools to improve course design and update the methods used in the classroom. In an effort to provide the typical undergraduate management student with the best possible learning experience and outcomes, it is important to recognize how and why these new activities benefit the student. To reach this goal, one must first understand that the traditional undergraduate management student, aged 18 to 25 years, is in a phase of life development referred to as emerging adulthood in which they are distinctly different from mature adults demographically, cognitively, emotionally, and socially. With this understanding, our research analyzes how each of the six assumptions of andragogy can be applied uniquely to the emerging adult undergraduate management student. We provide the management educator with a method for classifying the level of development of students along the focus areas of andragogy, general instructional design ideas for addressing those particular levels of development, and a number of specific activities identified in a review of Journal of Management Education articles with notes on the conditions under which activities will be most effective. Student learning experiences can be improved when course activities are designed more intentionally and meaningfully.

“…Da mesma forma, é expressivo o declínio do estoque de peixes nos oceanos, pois um quarto está em via de extinção, enquanto 44% do restante vem sendo pescado no seu limite biológico, sendo a extração mais acelerada do que a reposição. Se considerado o caso do bacalhau na costa do Canadá, podemos constatar que a drástica redução no número de exemplares de uma espécie significa, para a teia da vida, não apenas uma ruptura biológica mas também social e econômica, como revelado pelos 40 mil empregos que deixarão de existir nas atividades ligadas à pesca do bacalhau naquele país (Ryland, 1998).…”

“…Caso consideremos a crescente competitividade que hoje caracteriza o mundo dos negóci-os, são preocupantes as conseqüências da manutenção dessa prática, assim como incoerentes as situações que se criam. Basta que tomemos o exemplo citado por Ryland (1998), segundo o qual grandes empresas norte-americanas do setor de saúde investem alguns milhões de dólares em ações de empresas de cigarro.…”

The article discusses some questions about the humanization of companies and justifies its urgency and feasibility. It's understood that the humanized company is one that, focused on its employees and/or on the external environment, links other values besides maximizing the return for the stockholders. Continuing on this line are mentioned companies that, in the internal environment, promote an enhancement in quality of life and of work, concentrating on the construction of more democratic and just relationship, reducing inequality and racial, gender and belief prejudice, besides contributing to the development and growth of people. Focusing on the environment, the actions taken by these companies are directed towards the elimination of ecological unbalance, overcoming social injustice, community support and towards everything that is called corporate citizenship.RAE -Revista de Administração de Empresas Abr./Jun. 2001 RESUMO O presente artigo discute algumas das questões referentes à humanização das empresas e justifica a premência e a possibilidade de sua viabilização. Entende por empresa humanizada aquela que, voltada para seus funcionários e/ou para o ambiente, agrega outros valores que não somente a maximização do retorno para os acionistas. Nesse sentido, são mencionadas empresas que, no âmbito interno, promovem a melhoria na qualidade de vida e de trabalho, visando à construção de relações mais democráticas e justas, mitigam as desigualdades e diferenças de raça, sexo ou credo, além de contribuí-rem para o desenvolvimento e crescimento das pessoas. Ao focalizar o ambiente, as ações dessas empresas buscam a eliminação de desequilíbrios ecológicos, a superação de injustiças sociais, o apoio a atividades comunitárias, enfim, o que se convencionou chamar de exercício da cidadania corporativa. PALAVRAS-CHAVEOrganizações humanizadas, cidadania corporativa, responsabilidade social, empresa e sociedade, sustentabilidade corporativa.

“…Designers focus on skills and concepts correlating to their profession, including design for the environment (DFE), designing for extended producer's responsibility (EPR), resource recovery, and biomimicry. Management students need more understanding of different perspectives on the environmental challenge (a good bibliography was provided by Ryland [6] and working knowledge of alternative business practices and exposure to case studies of companies that promote sustainability (e.g., IKEA, Interfaces, Skandic). Texts such as Russo [7] and Nattrass and Altomare [8] are useful resources.…”

Green buildings and sustainable design have become the points architects are concerned about. At the same time, a lack of collaboration with other design disciplines is a problem encountered by many architecture designers. In such a situation, some architects promote a method of integrated design, which can fix the gap in interdisciplinary collaboration in the process of construction and operation of building. In this article, the authors introduced the integrated design and analyzed it in architectural education as well as provide case studies to offer specific evidence.
