Empowering the workforce of tomorrow:
Capacitar a força de trabalho do amanhã:
The role of business in tackling the skills mismatch among youth
O papel das empresas no enfrentamento da incompatibilidade de habilidades entre os jovens

The future of work is changing fast. Technology, socioeconomic trends, and developments and crises like COVID-19 are changing the world of work and the demand for skills at a pace and depth that poses serious challenges to people, business, and society.
O futuro do trabalho está mudando rapidamente. Tecnologia, tendências socioeconômicas e desenvolvimentos e crises como a COVID-19 estão mudando o mundo do trabalho e a demanda por habilidades em um ritmo e profundidade que representam sérios desafios para as pessoas, empresas e sociedade.
Young people and future generations, especially when they are from disadvantaged groups, are disproportionately affected by these disruptions.
Jovens e gerações futuras, especialmente quando são de grupos desfavorecidos, são desproporcionalmente afetados por essas interrupções.
A key challenge to shaping a sustainable future of work is addressing the skills mismatch among youth. Despite young people around the world being more educated than ever before, hundreds of millions of individuals are coming of age and finding themselves unemployed and unemployable, lacking the right skills to take up the jobs available today and, even more, the skills that will be needed in the future.
Um desafio fundamental para moldar um futuro sustentável do trabalho é lidar com a incompatibilidade de habilidades entre os jovens. Apesar de os jovens em todo o mundo estarem mais educados do que nunca, centenas de milhões de indivíduos estão chegando à maioridade e se encontram desempregados e inempregáveis, sem as habilidades certas para assumir os empregos disponíveis hoje e, ainda mais, as habilidades que serão necessárias no futuro.
Neglecting the skills mismatch among youth can result in young people feeling disenfranchised and disillusioned about their prospects in the labor market, fueling social unrest, stunting economic growth and ultimately creating a more volatile operating environment for business.
Negligenciar a incompatibilidade de habilidades entre os jovens pode fazer com que os jovens se sintam marginalizados e desiludidos sobre suas perspectivas no mercado de trabalho, alimentando a agitação social, prejudicando o crescimento econômico e, finalmente, criando um ambiente operacional mais volátil para os negócios.
In contrast, by equipping youth with relevant skills, businesses can empower young people, support their access to employment opportunities and enable them to thrive personally, professionally and as active members of society.
Em contraste, ao equipar os jovens com habilidades relevantes, as empresas podem empoderá-los, apoiar seu acesso a oportunidades de emprego e capacitá-los a prosperar pessoal, profissionalmente e como membros ativos da sociedade.
Investing in the skills of young people has an essential role to play in helping to realize the ambitions of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s (WBCSD) Vision2050, which aims to create a world where over 9 billion people live well and within planetary boundaries by mid-century.
Investir nas habilidades dos jovens tem um papel essencial a desempenhar para ajudar a concretizar as ambições dos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) e da Visão 2050 do Conselho Empresarial Mundial para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável (WBCSD), que visa criar um mundo onde mais de 9 bilhões de pessoas vivam bem e dentro dos limites planetários até meados do século.
  • "by mid-century" – até meados do século.

  • Então eu precisaria comparar sua solicitação com todos os outros usos do meu tempo.
  • I also need to take account my feelings about you personally.
  • Também preciso levar em conta meus sentimentos sobre você pessoalmente.
  • For example, I might harbor negative feelings a person who asks me to do something before telling me what it is.
  • Por exemplo, posso abrigar sentimentos negativos em relação a uma pessoa que me pede para fazer algo antes de me dizer o que é.

22  (FURB/2019-SME/PM/GUABIRUBA-PROFESSOR ACT) What is the alternative that presents the correct text about technologies for English language teaching?

( ) Benefiting thousands of students in classrooms around the world. For many students and teachers, this solution is not new, but its use has become increasingly creative and relevant in the school context. It allows us to explore additional resources within the courseware, as well as being another tool in the teacher's service to capture attention and promote student engagement.

( ) While teachers have to battle for the attention of students in the classroom, it is also well known that the long, expository lecture model is dated. The way we consume content has undergone a major transformation over the last few decades. For new generations, bombarded by different content and information all the time - and in different media - it has become challenging to focus on one task for long periods of time. The social networks themselves offer evidence of this change: Twitter, with its posts up to 280 characters; or Snapchat, with its short images and videos that expire in 24 hours. In this context came the expression microlearning. This technology is the fragmentation of educational content so that it is more easily assimilated by the student. It’s is ideal for digital format, whether it is for content exposure or for reviewing concepts explored during class, through videos, games, animations, etc.

( ) It is already possible to glimpse this technology, especially among children and adolescents. Whenever they are connected, young people are receiving or streaming this technology: Evidence of this reality is the phenomenon of YouTubers. In the educational context, it is possible to follow this trend seeking to offer hangouts (debates and live broadcasts), video lessons, animations and video calls that enable contact with people from different places, realities, etc. Also, encouraging students to produce content in this technological tool format can be a way to generate greater engagement.

( ) Many schools and many teachers find it difficult to handle with this technology in the classroom. When rules of use are not established early in the year, or when they are not clear to students, it is very easy for it to become a discipline issue. There are many applications for educational purposes, many offered by schools themselves and education systems. Digital books, augmented reality, educational games, animations, video lessons and problem solving are just some of the features that can be accessed through that. Generation Z students are immersed in technology 24 hours a day. Going forward, the trend is to find more teachers and students using this technology in the classroom, with educational goals.

EXPRESSÃO IDIOMÁTICA — TO GRILL SOMEONE ABOUT SOMETHING — FGV/2008/SF – ADVOGADO(A) – LÍNGUA INGLESA

Welcome back to another post!


➧ TEXT:

When we think about people who have law degrees, we envision lawyers arguing cases in courtrooms full of drama and publicity, grilling witnesses and arguing with the judge. In reality, most lawyers, or attorneys, rarely see the inside of a courtroom, and those that do are typically involved in more common court proceedings such as DWI (driving while intoxicated) and theft cases. For every hour spent in the courtroom, many more are spent doing research, conducting interviews, or writing documents in preparation for litigation. Being an attorney requires excellent communication skills, but it also involves a great deal of paperwork and red tape. Some people with a law degree don’t practice law at all. A law degree opens many doors in the legal field.

  • Quando pensamos em pessoas formadas em direito, imaginamos advogados discutindo casos em tribunais cheios de drama e publicidade, INTERROGANDO TESTEMUNHAS e discutindo com o juiz.
