Full textAgila metoder har implementerats i stor utsträckning inom branschen, medan undervisning i dessa metoder är en väsentlig del av utbildningarna för datavetenskap och teknik. Bevisdriven data om agila arbetssätt, metoder och verktyg har tagits fram från empiriska studier med studenter, men det finns ett viktigt behov av mer anekdotiska bevis för att bekräfta dessa resultat. För att fylla detta gap utforskar den här rapporten uppfattningarna och tillämpligheten av ramverket Scrum i ett studentforskningsteam i ett industriellt sammanhang. Empiriska data har samlats genom intervjuer med deltagarna i fallstudien i kombination med ett frågeformulär. Analysen visar att studentupplevelserna är främst positiva och att man lätt kan förstå fördelarna med Scrum. Utmaningarna med att implementera Scrum i en sådan miljö gäller främst balansen mellan coaching och självorganiserande, formulera exakta användarhistorier när man forskar, finner den mest lämpliga uppskattningsmetoden samt planerar forskningsrelaterat arbete. De empiriska fynden kan eventuellt extrapoleras i Scrumteam med studenter eller till och med i industriella miljöer. Slutligen bör detta forskningsarbete uppmuntra andra forskare att undersöka införandet av Scrum i ett studentkontext.

Por ejemplo, el autor afirma que los investigadores en una democracia deben educar a la opinión pública acerca de la necesidad de apoyar investigaciones de alta calidad. Cuando esto no se da, cuestiones políticas determinan las prioridades antes que el sentido común o la necesidad científica.

Full textCOVID-19-pandemin har tvingat UX-designers (User Experience) att anpassa sin forskning till sociala distansieringsregler, och därför har många börjat använda verktyg för datormedierad kommunikation (CMC). Även om forskning har visat att intervjuer där designers träffarpersonen är marginellt överlägsna intervjuer med videosamtal, utförs forskning om användarupplevelser ofta med hjälp av mer än en metod. Denna avhandling syftar därför till att undersöka hur yrkesverksamma inom user experience använder videosamtal som den huvudsakliga kommunikationsmetoden för sin användarcentrerade datainsamling. Elva UX-proffs från ett designföretag intervjuades om tio olika kundprojekt, med fokus på projektgenomförandet och de metoder som användes. Resultaten visar olika sätt att använda videosamtal för intervjuer, alternativa metoder för att ersätta personliga observationer samt nackdelar och fördelar med att använda CMC-verktyg för att samla in data. Det framgår att vissa projekt lämpar sig bättre för videosamtal än andra och att det finns möjliga fördelar med att använda både CMC-verktyg och personliga metoder för att samla in uppgifter.

Full text7 out of 8 TROs involved only researchers from biomedicine and clinical disciplines and none involved disciplines related to education, ethnicity, and sociology, or engaged the community. Current management of the TROs were generally nested within the traditional research management paradigms, and failed to adapt to the tenets of translational research. Half of the TROs were at developmental stages defined as infrastructure construction and recruitment of translational researchers.CONCLUSIONS:TROs in China face the challenge of attracting sustainable funding sources, widening multidisciplinary cooperation, cultivating multi-disciplinary translational researchers and adapting current research management to translational research. Greater emphasis should be placed on increasing multidisciplinary cooperation, and innovating in education programs to cultivate of translational researchers. Efforts should be made to reform research management in TROs, and establish sustainable funding resources.

Full textThis study examined the process of team creativity in the workplace as it relates to experiential, cognitive, and social factors, including organizational and cultural structures, team social dynamics, and effects on individuals. Its purpose was to understand the quality of real-time social interactions and dynamics underlying the creative process in teams. The researcher employed a case study methodology, using observation and individual and focus group interviews of a highly creative team within an organization in a creative industry. Data were analyzed using the constant comparative method.
The study had seven major findings: (1) the team actively integrated elements of play during initial interactions; (2) the setting provided a “play” environment that encouraged team members to view things from different perspectives; (3) the play mood that was initiated in early meetings accelerated team bonding and trust and consequently facilitated the emergence of creativity in subsequent meetings; (4) through the active integration of available resources and tools over time, team members generated novel ways of interacting with the environment; (5) the introduction of externally induced stress caused an abrupt shift from playful to task-oriented behaviors; (6) the final solution emerged gradually through incremental integration of ideas proposed by individual team members over time; and (7) all team members took part in developing elements of the final work product based on their individual strengths and preferences. Conclusions include the following: (1) the creative process incorporates play as a behavioral orientation; (2) the creative process is enabled by a combination of autonomy and constraint; (3) the creative process combines significant aspects of experiential and social learning expressed through the reciprocal interaction of the environment, personal and cognitive factors, and behavior; and (4) team member alignment around shared values helps facilitate social dynamics and the creative process. This study sheds new insight on the transdisciplinary nature of the creativity phenomenon that integrates creativity, play, adult learning, and general systems theories. Recommendations for practice and research include, but are not limited to, integrating this study’s findings into existing innovative team learning models (e.g., action learning) and developing an inquiry-based design to generating creativity in organizations.

This paper presents methods and software implementation for analyzing a field of research through the use of bibliometrics, i.e., information about published journal articles. Online publication search engines are queried, and their search results are extracted and analyzed, to help inform a researcher of the state of his or her field. Our methodology consists of three components: extraction of terms relevant to the research field, analysis of the growth in prevalence of these terms over time, and identification of interrelationships among these terms using a technique known as Latent Semantic Analysis. These methods are applicable to the analysis of any research field, but this paper presents results from a case study on the field of renewable energy.

Full textThe purpose of this qualitative exploratory multiple-case study was to explore the lived experiences and the challenges African American male nurses faced in leadership roles and in providing quality care for minority patients. Participants included 15 African American male registered nurses (RNs) working in executive, administrative, and managerial leadership positions in Florida’s hospitals and other healthcare organizations. The participation criteria included being an African American male RN working in a leadership position in Florida with experiences in leadership and providing quality care for minority patients and at least 5 years of leadership experience. Participants completed in-depth face-to-face, digitally recorded interviews answering open-ended questions. Analysis of the interview data identified emerging themes and patterns using NVivo 10 qualitative data analysis software. Four major themes were identified: (a) specific leadership challenges associated with being an African American male leader, (b) general leadership challenges, (c) patient-level challenges limit the ability to provide quality care for minority patients, and (d) systemic challenges limit the ability to provide quality care for minority patients. Recommendations to healthcare leaders include a work environment free of gender segregation and racial discrimination, organizations adequately funded to deliver quality care, and strong leadership support for nurses and staff. Future studies should include additional geographic locations to increase the generalizability of findings to other populations.
Jong, Cindy. "Linking Teacher Learning to Pupil Learning: A Longitudinal Investigation of How Experiences Shape Teaching Practices in Mathematics." Thesis, Boston College, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/616.
Full textMathematics education is constantly at the forefront of public and academic debates during this era of increased accountability. Questions concerning teacher preparation and teaching practices that connect to pupil learning are central to these discussions. However, very few studies have examined relationships among these factors and most are confined to a short time period; thus, this dissertation studies such relationships over a two-year period. Informed by a sociocultural perspective, this study examines how preservice elementary teachers' past K-12 schooling and teacher education experiences influences their attitudes and perceptions about mathematics education over time. It also explores how teaching practices are shaped by these experiences, and are ultimately linked to pupil learning. A mixed-method design of survey and qualitative case-study research methods was employed to collect and analyze data over a two-year period. During the first year of this study, pre- and post-surveys using Likert-scale items were administered to all preservice teachers (n=75) enrolled in an elementary mathematics methods course. For a two-year period, the experiences of two participants were explored through longitudinal interviews, observations, and an examination of artifacts (i.e., teacher lesson plans, assessments, and pupil work) to develop in-depth case studies. Findings indicate that prior schooling experiences influenced teachers' initial attitudes and perceptions about mathematics. Nevertheless, over a short period, positive changes in teachers' attitudes and confidence to teach mathematics suggest that experiences in the mathematics methods course were conducive to building on teachers' prior knowledge. Survey and case-study findings also indicate that preservice teachers planned to teach mathematics with a reformed approach, which emphasizes a conceptual understanding of mathematic. However, it was challenging for case-study participants to implement a reformed approach as first-year teachers, especially if they had limited teaching models to reinforce this method. Findings also suggest that school context, classroom management, and mathematical content knowledge all influence teaching practices and pupil learning opportunities. Implications for teacher education, school reform, and future research are discussed

According to the statistical study conducted by Financial Supervisory Commission in 2016, Taiwan insurance density reached TWD $133,109 which currently ranked number ten globally. Moreover, Insurance penetration in Taiwan is now as high as 18.31%, ranking number two globally and number one in Asia respectively. Based on The Life Insurance Association of R.O.C, the total insurance revenue is at TWD $2.5 trillion, demonstrating the important role Insurance plays in wealth management in Taiwan. In an era where declining birth rate, aging population, and volatile financial market are common, most people deem insurance as a low risk and stable protection for them and their family. However, for young beneficiaries who are not yet capable of managing claimed compensation, issues such as deception and scams can be serious social and legal problems. This research paper will discuss how to incorporate Insurance Trust into insurance plan in order to maximize the beneficiaries' benefits. It also summarizes different customized models for various types of family structure and specific needs. Through primary case studies and secondary research, this report will analyze the topic of insurance planning, ranging from life insurance, health insurance, cancer insurance, long-term insurance, to savings insurance and investment oriented insurance. Through four primary real-life case studies, this research will present customized insurance plans and trust proposals that aim to balance achieving financial goals and securing life. Notably, the proposals are designed based on different family conditions, after-incident impacts, and insurers' expectations. When considering life as a three-stage process, this research shows that there are four main areas of risks. One should review her own situation, adjusts risk planning and select the most suitable plan accordingly at different times. The phenomena of high insurance fee and low premium show that Taiwanese insurers prefer health insurance or capital preservation investment insurance, and adoption rate for insurance trust has been relatively low, due to its nascency in the market. As the insurance industry in Taiwan continues to mature, we argue that insurance planning will be even more comprehensive if traditional insurance products and insurance trust can be combined together, thereby maximizing the expected benefits and life-long protection. From our research, we propose the following recommendations: (1) Every insurer should incorporate insurance trust into insurance planning (2) Insurance sales agents should deepen their knowledge and develop expertise in insurance trust (3) Discuss and resolve conflicts between insurance law and trust law.

With an increase of economic volatility, many experts proposed many ways for analysis and solutions to business problems. Some researches focus the strategies outside the company, such as Porter’s competitive strategy of 5 forces. Recently, some researchers began to emphasize the strength of the resources inside the enterprise. It seems that all of the problems of an enterprise could be overcome and led to success by dominant strategies. This research reviews some literature related to strategies and studies the case of a Positive Polymer Temperature Component (PPTC)division. The results suggest that the company should select “Product Expansion Strategy” and “Geographic Expanding Strategy” to increase the marketing ability and the image of the company’s brand.

The low fertility trend of Taiwan in recently years has accelerated its society run fast towards an aging population. Under situation, how to care for chronic illness or handicap of the elders to avoid hypoglycemia, hyperthermia, falls and other accidents dangerous status, as well as how to reduce the cost of care is an important issue. The Internet of Things was born in between 2008 and 2009, it has the ability to identify various objects connected to form a network, so that information between objects can be connected to each other and co-sharing. This study was based on the concept of IoT, we built smart mobile home care system, firmly implemented serving home care patients, and focused on the elders in the family who has diabetes to ensure patient health. In this study, for the part of the hardware, we used physiological information sensing device and wireless communication technology to construct the local area network. For the part of the software, we developed a smart home care mobile platform, via Internet connection sensing device, the use of Android mobile phones and other mobile devices to gather instant health information to be caregivers, and combined caregivers medical treatment records in the past and medical history, for processing screening, assessment, and make out an wise model for the home care.
