Lowery, Andrea. "A Study Investigating the Experience of Teachers’ Innovative Adaptation of Teaching and Learning". Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2021. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/3976.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to identify and examine the technology-based instructional strategies and digital tools being used by teachers in grades 3-5 that engage children in problem-solving learning opportunities. The study included 11 purposely sampled participants from a school district in East Tennessee who responded to questions during a Zoom interview. Seven of the participants submitted artifacts to provide examples of how they have incorporated technology and problem solving in their classrooms. Participants provided information about the digital tools and technology-based instructional strategies they have used to enrich problem solving in their classrooms. Participants in the study communicated using group work as a primary instructional strategy when integrating technology to enrich problem solving. The participants discussed student engagement, creativity, real-world connections, and technology exposure for students when sharing their perceptions about how digital tools can enhance problem solving. When explaining how technology integration has adapted their curriculum, they shared how they use technology to provide quick feedback and differentiation. The researcher used Magana’s (2017) T3 Framework to code each example of technology as a translational, transformational, or transcendent use of technology and shared some examples of each.

Popper, Rafael. "21st century foresight". Thesis, University of Manchester, 2011. http://www.manchester.ac.uk/escholar/uk-ac-man-scw:151961.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
21st Century Foresight offers a comprehensive study of ‘foresight’ as an instrument of policy. It covers the development of foresight methodology, the design of foresight activities and their evaluation. The thesis is based on eleven publications collectively making significant contributions to knowledge about global foresight practices and applications in different domains (i.e. research areas and socio-economic sectors). New conceptual frameworks developed include the Foresight Diamond, the SMART Futures Jigsaw and the Methods Combination Matrix (MCM), which can be used as tools for futures research, practical work in the design and management of forward-looking activities and knowledge transfer on foresight. The thesis shows both generalised and specific contributions to knowledge. The former is best demonstrated with the development of a “fully-fledged evaluation” framework with twenty criteria, the identification of critical factors influencing the selection of foresight methods (e.g. geo-R&D context) and the use of network analysis techniques in foresight. The latter is prominent throughout the thesis with examples including the results of particular evaluations and the profiles of foresight practices in Europe and Latin America. A prevailing theme is the use of mapping and benchmarking approaches to evaluate foresight practices and reveal a more detailed understanding of the impacts of foresight in science, technology and innovation systems. The theoretical contributions (e.g. using exploratory research and catastrophe theory) are complemented with a set of practical instruments providing methodological basis and guidelines for increasing the efficiency and outcome of foresight and horizon scanning activities. Overall, the thesis demonstrates original contributions to five distinct yet interconnected areas of knowledge: foresight methodology; foresight practices in Europe and the world; foresight in Latin America; foresight evaluation; and the evaluation of national technology foresight programmes. The various approaches used to frame the morphology of foresight – supported with evidence, comparisons and evaluations – are the main contributions to knowledge.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Abstract Community Learning Centers (CLC) provide extended learning opportunities for students and families that live in fiscally under-resourced communities. These centers provide opportunities for academic enrichment. This includes an array of additional services, programs, and activities. The programs should be designed to reinforce and complement the academic program of participating students and provide the families of students with opportunities for dynamic and meaningful engagement in the education of the child. Significant research has been done on the effectiveness of community learning centers but little research has been conducted on the formative process for establishing programming for a community learning center. This formative evaluation provided key stakeholders with a unique insight into the program. To accomplish this, the evaluator used Robert E. Stake’s Responsive Evaluation Approach to design a constant-comparative qualitative program evaluation. The evaluation engaged in an analysis that identified the perceived program components. Insight from the analysis will be used to formulate a Theory of Change for the CLC. The Theory of Change process pivots upon identifying the essential program components and establishing the sufficient conditions required to bring about a given long term outcome. The formulation of a Theory of Change will assist with establishing programming, resource building (i.e., grant, monetary solicitation), external program collaborations and potential expansion.

Materials with potential for high temperature inorganic pigment applications (e.g. ceramics) have been synthesised using solid state methods and characterised using powder X-ray and neutron diffraction, magic angle spinning NMR, Mossbauer spectroscopy, UVNis spectroscopy and colour measurement techniques. A number of compounds containing tin (H) and niobium (V) have been modified and doped with various constituents to tailor and widen the colour properties of the bright yellow parent phases. The dark yellow (L*(91.28), a*(13.74), b*(54.76)) tin niobium oxide pyrochlores have been re-characterised using neutron diffraction techniques. These materials exhibit both cation and anion disorder caused by a stereoactive lone pair on the tin (H) metal centres. Solid state NMR and Mossbauer studies have shown the presence of tin (IV) on a symmetric site within the primary phase of the pure oxide pyrochlore and methods have been investigated to minimise the tin (H) disproportion method from where the tin (IV) is derived.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Interactive surfaces are a growing trend in many domains. As one possible manifestation of Mark Weiser’s vision of ubiquitous and disappearing computers in everywhere objects, we see touchsensitive screens in many kinds of devices, such as smartphones, tablet computers and interactive tabletops. More advanced concepts of these have been an active research topic for many years. This has also influenced automotive cockpit development: concept cars and recent market releases show integrated touchscreens, growing in size. To meet the increasing information and interaction needs, interactive surfaces offer context-dependent functionality in combination with a direct input paradigm.
However, interfaces in the car need to be operable while driving. Distraction, especially visual distraction from the driving task, can lead to critical situations if the sum of attentional demand emerging from both primary and secondary task overextends the available resources. So far, a touchscreen requires a lot of visual attention since its flat surface does not provide any haptic feedback. There have been approaches to make direct touch interaction accessible while driving for simple tasks. Outside the automotive domain, for example in office environments, concepts for sophisticated handling of large displays have already been introduced. Moreover, technological advances lead to new characteristics for interactive surfaces by enabling arbitrary surface shapes.
In cars, two main characteristics for upcoming interactive surfaces are largeness and shape. On the one hand, spatial extension is not only increasing through larger displays, but also by taking objects in the surrounding into account for interaction. On the other hand, the flatness inherent in current screens can be overcome by upcoming technologies, and interactive surfaces can therefore provide haptically distinguishable surfaces. This thesis describes the systematic exploration of large and shaped interactive surfaces and analyzes their potential for interaction while driving. Therefore, different prototypes for each characteristic have been developed and evaluated in test settings suitable for their maturity level. Those prototypes were used to obtain subjective user feedback and objective data, to investigate effects on driving and glance behavior as well as usability and user experience.
As a contribution, this thesis provides an analysis of the development of interactive surfaces in the car. Two characteristics, largeness and shape, are identified that can improve the interaction compared to conventional touchscreens. The presented studies show that large interactive surfaces can provide new and improved ways of interaction both in driver-only and driver-passenger situations. Furthermore, studies indicate a positive effect on visual distraction when additional static haptic feedback is provided by shaped interactive surfaces. Overall, various, non-exclusively applicable, interaction concepts prove the potential of interactive surfaces for the use in automotive cockpits, which is expected to be beneficial also in further environments where visual attention needs to be focused on additional tasks.Der Einsatz von interaktiven Oberflächen weitet sich mehr und mehr auf die unterschiedlichsten Lebensbereiche aus. Damit sind sie eine mögliche Ausprägung von Mark Weisers Vision der allgegenwärtigen Computer, die aus unserer direkten Wahrnehmung verschwinden. Bei einer Vielzahl von technischen Geräten des täglichen Lebens, wie Smartphones, Tablets oder interaktiven Tischen, sind berührungsempfindliche Oberflächen bereits heute in Benutzung. Schon seit vielen Jahren arbeiten Forscher an einer Weiterentwicklung der Technik, um ihre Vorteile auch in anderen Bereichen, wie beispielsweise der Interaktion zwischen Mensch und Automobil, nutzbar zu machen. Und das mit Erfolg: Interaktive Benutzeroberflächen werden mittlerweile serienmäßig in vielen Fahrzeugen eingesetzt. Der Einbau von immer größeren, in das Cockpit integrierten Touchscreens in Konzeptfahrzeuge zeigt, dass sich diese Entwicklung weiter in vollem Gange befindet. Interaktive Oberflächen ermöglichen das flexible Anzeigen von kontextsensitiven Inhalten und machen eine direkte Interaktion mit den Bildschirminhalten möglich. Auf diese Weise erfüllen sie die sich wandelnden Informations- und Interaktionsbedürfnisse in besonderem Maße. Beim Einsatz von Bedienschnittstellen im Fahrzeug ist die gefahrlose Benutzbarkeit während der Fahrt von besonderer Bedeutung. Insbesondere visuelle Ablenkung von der Fahraufgabe kann zu kritischen Situationen führen, wenn Primär- und Sekundäraufgaben mehr als die insgesamt verfügbare Aufmerksamkeit des Fahrers beanspruchen. Herkömmliche Touchscreens stellen dem Fahrer bisher lediglich eine flache Oberfläche bereit, die keinerlei haptische Rückmeldung bietet, weshalb deren Bedienung besonders viel visuelle Aufmerksamkeit erfordert. Verschiedene Ansätze ermöglichen dem Fahrer, direkte Touchinteraktion für einfache Aufgaben während der Fahrt zu nutzen. Außerhalb der Automobilindustrie, zum Beispiel für Büroarbeitsplätze, wurden bereits verschiedene Konzepte für eine komplexere Bedienung großer Bildschirme vorgestellt. Darüber hinaus führt der technologische Fortschritt zu neuen möglichen Ausprägungen interaktiver Oberflächen und erlaubt, diese beliebig zu formen. Für die nächste Generation von interaktiven Oberflächen im Fahrzeug wird vor allem an der Modifikation der Kategorien Größe und Form gearbeitet. Die Bedienschnittstelle wird nicht nur durch größere Bildschirme erweitert, sondern auch dadurch, dass Objekte wie Dekorleisten in die Interaktion einbezogen werden können. Andererseits heben aktuelle Technologieentwicklungen die Restriktion auf flache Oberflächen auf, so dass Touchscreens künftig ertastbare Strukturen aufweisen können. Diese Dissertation beschreibt die systematische Untersuchung großer und nicht-flacher interaktiver Oberflächen und analysiert ihr Potential für die Interaktion während der Fahrt. Dazu wurden für jede Charakteristik verschiedene Prototypen entwickelt und in Testumgebungen entsprechend ihres Reifegrads evaluiert. Auf diese Weise konnten subjektives Nutzerfeedback und objektive Daten erhoben, und die Effekte auf Fahr- und Blickverhalten sowie Nutzbarkeit untersucht werden. Diese Dissertation leistet den Beitrag einer Analyse der Entwicklung von interaktiven Oberflächen im Automobilbereich. Weiterhin werden die Aspekte Größe und Form untersucht, um mit ihrer Hilfe die Interaktion im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Touchscreens zu verbessern. Die durchgeführten Studien belegen, dass große Flächen neue und verbesserte Bedienmöglichkeiten bieten können. Außerdem zeigt sich ein positiver Effekt auf die visuelle Ablenkung, wenn zusätzliches statisches, haptisches Feedback durch nicht-flache Oberflächen bereitgestellt wird. Zusammenfassend zeigen verschiedene, untereinander kombinierbare Interaktionskonzepte das Potential interaktiver Oberflächen für den automotiven Einsatz. Zudem können die Ergebnisse auch in anderen Bereichen Anwendung finden, in denen visuelle Aufmerksamkeit für andere Aufgaben benötigt wird.

Since the collapse of Japan's so called "bubble economy" in the early 1990s, Japanese banks have struggled to recover their former strength, facing an unprecedented amount of bad debts. Although major banks seem to have passed a toughest period in terms of bad debts, the new environment requires them to fight in more competitive markets, where foreign financial institutions and other new entrants are active. Recent announcements of large mergers show that Japanese banking industry is now in the middle of restructuring in order to survive in the face of tougher competition and to develop sustainable competitiveness. Their style in managing business is also changing by adopting U.S. model. This thesis studies the changing environment, which includes the change of economy, society, regulations, human resource etc. It examines the restructuring of banking industry in Japan, taking examples such as Mizuho Financial Group. Finally, I try to propose a direction which they should take toward the 21st century.

Public authorities and private developers around the world are attempting to create and sustain hubs within the innovation-based economy by fostering successful urban environments. These large-scale developments succeed an earlier generation of post-industrial "technopoles" named after the French word popularized by Castells and Hall in Technopoles of the World (1994). In the 1990s, most planned technopoles resembled suburban office environments with generous landscaping, wide roads, and automobile-focused circulation systems. In contrast, today's economic development experts are increasingly emphasizing the need for interaction and cross-fertilization among companies and institutions in an attempt to foster innovation, from which successful communities are assumed to derive their competitive edge in an information- based economy. Parallel shifts in live-work patterns among creative talent groups are being documented in social science and anecdotal observations. These trends have heightened competition for qualified individuals and initiated a talent war among cities globally. And these individuals are living footloose lifestyles supported by mobile devices and wireless connectivity. Entrepreneurial public agencies and private developers have recognized the potential for reconceiving live-work environments as economic hubs. These holistic projects are identified as 21st century technopoles because they directly address and capitalize on the socio-economic shifts described above leading to vastly different ideal urban configurations. The thesis asks how urban form is expected to contribute to innovation; and, how urban form is being reconceptualized in turn at the neighborhood scale.
(cont.) Four case studies provide a rich narrative that begins to sketch the range of proposed urban developments: Cyberjaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Digital Media City, Seoul, Korea; one-north, Singapore; Lower Manhattan, New York. A narrative ties the four cases together providing "thick descriptions" as a base-line study for a new mode of technopole development. The analysis reaches from (1) "hardware" or the urban built environment and (2) "wiring" or the embedded and supported technologies to (3) "software" or the actors involved. The case studies indicate several emergent themes that are rescripting our urban environments. Dense urban zones with a high level of sensory diversity are being proposed for emerging technopoles that capitalize on the city as a metaphor for human interaction and exchange. Real estate value in this system is measured by the number of serendipitous encounters it facilitates. The dichotomous relationship between spaces of places and spaces of flows set forth by Castells seems inapplicable within the boundaries of these zones that are at once core and periphery, local and global. Finally, these developments are living laboratories for the technologies that support new live-work preferences and shifting lifestyles. Several contradictions become apparent in delving more deeply into the examples, which are still under development. In the promotional materials, diversity - demographic and physical - is embraced, but it is not clear how it will contribute to innovation. More generally, the projects plan for often unpredictable "knowledge accidents." ...

There is considerable research on concepts of Blackness in America. Much of this research is conducted within a Eurocentric as opposed to an Afrocentric perspective. Social research has established that ideals, social norms, and values about Black minority groups may be shaped by dominant culture premises and that the dominant culture of any society can influence the attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors of minority group members coexisting within that culture. The White racial frame holds that over time a dominant cultural perspective in the U.S. has installed a positive orientation to “White” and whiteness and a strong negative orientation toward racial “others”, particularly toward Black Americans. The present research explores this phenomenon from an Afrocentric perspective, assessing propinquity preferences of non-native Immigrant and native-born American Blacks toward native-born Blacks. Utilizing data drawn from The National Survey on American Life 2001-2003 (Jackson, 2007) the study assessed the degree of Black propinquity (i.e., self-identified feelings of closeness and identity preferences with native-born Blacks) expressed within and between subsamples of native-born African American (n = 3,464) and non-native (chiefly Afro-Caribbean) Blacks (n = 1,118). More specifically, it hypothesized that native-born Blacks would display greater propinquity preferences than Immigrant Blacks for native-American Blacks depicted as more economically-challenged as well as socially affluent and elite; also, it expected they would report greater support for socially undesirable as well as socially desirable Blacks than would Immigrant Blacks. A series of hierarchical regression analyses modeled the unique and joint predictive variance of socio-demographic, socio-economic, and Black (derived) target characteristics within each Black subpopulation against the primary outcome variable (propinquity). Overall regression models for each Black group were highly similar in the proportion of explained variance (27% for native Blacks; 26% for Immigrant Blacks) and weighted contributions of three blocks of variables; derived variables for Black target characteristics contributed most of the total variance within each group. No statistically reliable differences for R score values were found between the two Black subpopulations on these derived variables. Findings are discussed in the context of the White racial frame perspective, secondary data methodology, and future research.

3. 10 uspishnykh ukrayinsʹkykh brendiv/DISCURSUSInformation retrieval is an important component for a logical understanding of the meaning of the product, as well as its use in creating design and emotional impact on the buyer. Before creating any sketches, you need to understand the market of competitors on this topic and the target audience. Next, determine what impression the product should make on a person to want to buy the product? The product should be clear, because the buyer needs 15-60 seconds to determine the first, often basic, impression of interest or indifference to the product. Clear design is, graphically executed, answers to the first questions in a person's head. The information provided by the packaging design is parallel to the flow of ideas that are concretized in a single logical direction. It is important to give a person exactly what he needs - then the buyer's decision will be quick and confident, and the product will be remembered. Brand identity is a special identity of a specific product that is difficult to apply to any other packaging. You can use coloring, illustrations, original fonts or materials as a tool for attracting attention ... The point is that the product seems absolutely simple and easy to remember by its design. And this does not mean that everything is really simple, the complexity of the design is to create a unique design, looking at which you will understand how simple and logical it is for this product, so it is irrelevant to use for anything else. It is important that the first impression of the product is a fully harmonious picture, reflected in a single style. In the design of a unique package there should be a scheme, a plan, or a perfect reconstruction of the structures of the composition - this is when the package states everything and almost nothing. Focusing on the important internal components of the design, it is necessary to mention the actual affiliation of the design to the product within the present. The goal: to create a product that will reveal its individuality in the 21st century and the probability of being at the current pace in 20 years. An effective way to incorporate design into the present is to use fashion trends and tendencies, such as smart design elements such as QR codes. How to leave all the necessary information on the package, and illustrate the additional message with a QR-code to go to the site for a more detailed acquaintance with the product.
Пошук інформації є важливою складовою для логічного розуміння значення товару, а також його використання при створенні дизайну та емоційного впливу на покупця. Перш ніж створювати будь-які ескізи, потрібно зрозуміти ринок конкурентів на цю тему та цільову аудиторію. Далі визначте, яке враження товар повинен справити на людину, яка бажає придбати товар? Товар повинен бути чітким, оскільки покупцеві потрібно 15-60 секунд, щоб визначити перше, часто основне, враження про інтерес чи байдужість до товару. Чіткий дизайн - це графічне виконання, відповіді на перші питання в голові людини. Інформація, надана дизайном упаковки, паралельна потоку ідей, які конкретизуються в єдиному логічному напрямку. Важливо дати людині саме те, що йому потрібно - тоді рішення покупця буде швидким і впевненим, а товар запам’ятається. Ідентичність бренду - це особлива ідентичність конкретного товару, яку важко застосувати до будь-якої іншої упаковки. Ви можете використовувати забарвлення, ілюстрації, оригінальні шрифти або матеріали як інструмент для привернення уваги ... Справа в тому, що товар здається абсолютно простим і легко запам’ятовується своїм дизайном. І це не означає, що все насправді просто, складність дизайну полягає в створенні унікального дизайну, дивлячись на який ви зрозумієте, наскільки це просто і логічно для цього продукту, тому використовувати для чогось іншого нецільно. Важливо, щоб перше враження від товару було повністю гармонійним, відображеним в єдиному стилі. У дизайні унікальної упаковки повинна бути схема, план або досконала реконструкція конструкцій композиції - це коли в упаковці зазначено все і майже нічого. Зосереджуючись на важливих внутрішніх компонентах дизайну, необхідно згадати фактичну приналежність дизайну до виробу в межах сьогодення. Мета: створити продукт, який виявить його індивідуальність у 21 столітті та ймовірність досягнення нинішніх темпів через 20 років. Ефективним способом включити дизайн у сьогодення є використання модних тенденцій та тенденцій, таких як розумні елементи дизайну, такі як QR-коди. Як залишити всю необхідну інформацію на упаковці, а додаткове повідомлення проілюструвати QR-кодом для переходу на сайт для більш детального ознайомлення з товаром.

4. Profile: Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood Published25 December 2013 ShareFollowing the French expedition to Egypt in 1798 the centuries old distribution of power in the middle east was turned upside down. As European supremacy grew a group of Egyptian intellectuals banded together and formed a reactionary movement called “The Muslim Brotherhood”. They aimed to reform society without surrendering religious customs and what ensued was an intellectual battle for national identity that quickly transformed into an armed resistance. The Muslim Brotherhood, founded in 1928 by Hassan al-Banna, is the world’s most influential Islamist organization. The mission of the Brotherhood is to Islamize society by promoting religious laws, values and morals. To achieve this goal, it has long combined preaching and political activism with social welfare. The group gained legitimacy among its main constituency, the lower middle class, as the most effective organized resistance against the British occupation of Egypt (1882–1952). The Muslim Brotherhood allied itself with the Free Officers, nationalist military leaders who sought to snatch Egypt into a British-backed monarchy. After the coup that forced King Farouk to lose power in July 1952, the Military Junta, which took over the leadership and the Brotherhood, became rivals. This conflict revolved around power and ideology; The Brotherhood rejected the vision of the Egyptian military as the leader of the socialist, secular, pan-Arab movement. In 1954, a suspected member of the Brotherhood attempted to assassinate Free Officer leader Gamal Abdel Nasser. In response, thousands of suspected brothers were imprisoned.Although Nasser banned the group from governing, the Brotherhood nevertheless became ubiquitous in society, building allegiance as a populist alternative to the Egyptian state, which provided neither prosperity nor prosperity and suffered repeated military defeats by Israel.
Після французької експедиції до Єгипту в 1798 році багатовіковий розподіл сил на Близькому Сході було перевернуто з ніг на голову. У міру зростання європейської переваги , група єгипетських інтелектуалів об'єдналася і сформувала реакційний рух під назвою "Брати-мусульмани". Вони прагнули реформувати суспільство, не відступаючи від релігійних звичаїв, і в результаті виникла інтелектуальна боротьба за національну ідентичність, яка швидко переросла в збройний опір. Брати-мусульмани ", засновані в 1928 році Хасаном аль-Банної, є найвпливовішою ісламістської організацією в світі. Місія" Братства "полягає в ісламізації суспільства шляхом просування релігійних законів, цінностей і моралі. Для досягнення цієї мети воно довгий час поєднувало проповідницьку і політичну діяльність з соціальним забезпеченням. Група придбала легітимність серед свого основного електорату, нижчого середнього класу, як найбільш ефективна організація опору британської окупації Єгипту (1882-1952). Брати-мусульмани вступили в союз з Вільними офіцерами, націоналістичними військовими лідерами, які прагнули повернути Єгипет в підтримувану Великобританією монархію. Після перевороту, в результаті якого король Фарук втратив владу в липні 1952 року народження, Військова хунта, яка взяла на себе керівництво країною, і "Брати-мусульмани" стали суперниками. Цей конфлікт обертався навколо влади і ідеології; Братство відкидало бачення єгипетських військових як лідер асоціалістичного, світського, панарабского руху. У 1954 році підозрюваний член Братства спробував вбити лідера Вільних офіцерів Гамаля Абдель Насера. У відповідь тисячі підозрюваних братів були увикрадені в тюрьму.Хоча Насер заборонив групі управляти державою, Братство стало всюдисущим в суспільстві, формуючи лояльність як популістська альтернатива єгипетській державі, яке не забезпечувала ні процвітання, ні благополуччя і терпіла неодноразові військові поразки від Ізраїлю.

Gober, Courtney Carson. "Superintendent Preparation for the 21St Century". Thesis, University of North Texas, 2012. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc149596/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This study focused on the perceptions of six superintendents regarding the state of the profession as of 2012, and it reports their thoughts and suggestions as to what preparation is needed by superintendents for the 21st century. The participating superintendents, who were all members of the Western States Benchmarking Consortium, were employed in six school districts in five states. Data were collected through surveys and telephone interviews. The findings of this study clearly indicate a lack of cohesion between what superintendents learned in their university professional preparation programs and what they practice in their day to day activities. The superintendents involved in this study tended to favor a hybrid approach – rigorous theoretical insight grounded in real world practice. Since superintendents typically spend a good deal of their time solving challenging problems including funding shortfalls, competition from other educational institutions, and the constant scrutiny of the media; their preparation needs to provide opportunities to develop their leadership skills and solve real world problems in an environment where they can take risks. Mentoring and participation in professional consortiums were recommended as key elements for the preparation of the twenty-first century superintendent. This study contributes to the discussion of how to best prepare school leaders for the current and future demands of superintendency.

Nel 2013, durante un viaggio in Indonesia, il Presidente Cinese Xi Jinping ha annunciato di voler lanciare la Via Marittima della Seta del XXI secolo, un tragitto che, dalle coste cinesi dovrebbe portare, tramite il Sud Est Asiatico, il Medio Oriente e l’Africa, sino alle coste Europee, usufruendo di progetti di collaborazione e investimenti.
La prima parte dell’elaborato si propone di ricercare le cause dell’interesse cinese in ambito portuale estero, mettendo in evidenza le conquiste raggiunte sino ad ora, nel settore energetico, logistico ed economico. Successivamente verrà evidenziato come la strategia cinese sia stata interpretata a livello internazionale secondo la teoria della Collana di Perle, che vede negli investimenti cinesi un tentativo di imporsi politicamente e militarmente a livello globale. L’ultima parte della tesi analizza più approfonditamente alcuni progetti di investimento in porti ricadenti sotto la Via Marittima della Seta e prende in esame la zona costiera del Friuli Venezia Giulia, già interessata da investitori cinesi, data la sua posizione strategica di incontro tra Paesi diversi.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 45-47).
The devastating struck of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in late summer of 2005 was deadly and immense. The storm destroyed over 170 drinking water facilities and 47 wastewater treatments around the city, and resulted the shortage of fresh water supply. The mixing of industry chemical, debris, bacteria and decomposing bodies in flooded water made this water horribly poisoned. Thus, the water supply condition was contaminated and become unfit for drinking. Although the government did not declare the lack of clean water in New Orleans as a major issue during Hurricane Katrina disaster, it is in fact a compounding element in the overall disaster, which should have greater priority. Drinking water needed to be delivered from elsewhere, running water was shut down because the clean water facilities were destroyed. Yet the only water available was contaminated. These issues created dire difficulty for those who provided help and those who needed assistance. Thus, the focus of this thesis lies in the issue of water and architecture in which will be perceived through the eye of sustainable architecture. More importantly, the thesis highlights ways to integrate and employ water in architecture in the most desirable and efficient fashion. The thesis rebuilds a new City Hall for the City of New Orleans as a design project. In this endeavor it aims to combine a sustainable technology blending in with the symbol of government in a building. Thus a new City Hall spirit is encapsulated in the government building to project out beyond the 21st century.

Sorzano, Olga Lucia. "Circus between centre and periphery : the recognition of the form in 21st century Britain and Colombia". Thesis, City, University of London, 2018. http://openaccess.city.ac.uk/21141/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The turn of the 21st century arguably marked the point when circus gained recognition by cultural establishments in Britain and Colombia. Issues of identity and recognition were becoming central questions in the analysis of a practice regarded as marginal or lowbrow. This thesis addresses such questions by comparing circus movements in Britain and Colombia. The aim is to investigate global power structures that operate behind the current process of recognition. The analysis is conducted within the disciplines of cultural studies and circus studies. It follows mixed methods of research that include multi-sited ethnography, semi-structured interviews, textual analysis, archival research and political economy. Interviews were conducted with over 60 circus artists, arts administrators, and policy-makers; they enquire into the factors behind recognition and the distinctive character of the form. The research finds the internal peripheries of circus and a divided practice which is split into differentiated movements such as ‘traditional’, ‘contemporary’ or ‘social’ circus. While contemporary circus gains recognition as art, traditional circus is regarded as entertainment and social circus as therapy or social work. The historical review on the other hand, reveals that the 21st century is not the only period in which circus is gaining recognition. The 18th century saw the consolidation of ‘modern circus’ in Britain, the point when circus is said to emerge as a distinct genre and a performing art. The thesis brings those moments together as evidence of a cycle in which an itinerant and ambivalent practice encounters formalisation. Both periods coincide with a moment when cultural elites and official establishments embrace circus as a valid endeavour. In the process of recognition, crucial agents are often ignored and become invisible. The research contributes to understandings of circus beyond the West and the centre - more precisely, capitalism, the bourgeoisie, urban centres, expert knowledge and stakeholders. It highlights the influence that narratives found in 19th century Europe are having on contemporary developments of circus in both Britain and Colombia. It proposes that the understanding of global power forces operating behind circus transformations could help to alleviate internal disputes connected with intrinsic differences within circus. It also contributes towards a definition of cultural policies that embrace diversity and incentivise circus developments beyond central figures and models borrowed from the past.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The purpose of this study was to explore with community college presidents of 292 Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Level 1 institutions their perceptions as to the extent to which selected leadership styles presently required in the performance of presidential duties may be required in the future. Also investigated were leadership succession planning and professional development initiatives aimed at identifying and developing future leaders. A total of 209 (71.6%) presidents completed a researcher designed survey. Data analysis resulted in the following major findings. The presidents indicated a high level of support for each of the five leadership styles for current presidents as well as for future leaders. A consultative style of leadership was deemed to be the most important form of leadership for current leaders and increasing in importance for future leaders. Participative leadership was ranked second and could be considered as a transitional alternative for new presidents. The delegative and negotiative leadership styles were cited as the third and fourth most important forms of leadership for current and future leaders. Fifth ranked was the directive or autocratic style of leadership. Three-fourths of community college presidents indicated that they were actively engaged in the identification and development of potential leaders. Presidents were highly supportive of six developmental areas (budgeting, financial management, fund raising, governing boards, internal governance, and politics/relationships) but perceived politics and relationships as being the most critical area of development for future presidents. Presidents, with less than 10 years of service, were more actively engaged in identifying potential future leaders than their longer tenured counterparts. Those planning to retire within the next 6 years indicated the highest level of engagement. Institutional leaders who had been identified for advancement in a succession plan during their careers were more likely to have a succession plan in place in their institution; however, succession planning was largely informal.Ed.D.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
There are several models that can be found describing the organizational buying process. The organizational buying process (OBP) within B2B is also more complex and more time consuming than within B2C (Dwyer & Tanner Jr., 2002). The OBP is also continuously becoming more complex as new touchpoints are created through the rise of new communication channels (Mora Cortez & Johnston, 2017). Touchpoints are essentially places where the customer encounters the supplier (Moncrief & Marshall, 2005). These new communication channels and touchpoints have made the customer experience more important, although the customer experience is not yet well integrated into the OBP (Mora Cortez & Johnston, 2017). Social media is one of the new communication channels that has grown the last decade and has become important also for the OBP (Oyza & M. Edwin, 2015) With social media, companies have less control over the information online and social media is affecting companies in all industries (Kaplan and Haenlein, 2010). Despite some initial studies regarding social media, the effect they have on the OBP is still not well understood. The aim of this master thesis has therefore been to better understand how social media is affecting the OBP in terms of lead-time and win-rate. Win-rate can be used to measure sales success and is the percentage of the opportunities that the supplier won (Schultz, 2016). Through this case study, several semi-structured interviews were performed with both employees of the case study company and their customers. The data collected was thereafter analyzed through a thematic analysis resulting in various codes aligned under three main themes. The findings showed that LinkedIn was one of the main social media used. LinkedIn makes it easier to map out stakeholders and thereby also find new business opportunities through more quality leads. Within social media, targeted marketing was used toward selected organizations. With this said, social media has in different ways helped the company find more quality leads, influence the customer and also helped strengthen the brand of the company.

Jeppesen, Travis. "Towards a 21st century expressionist art criticism". Thesis, Royal College of Art, 2016. http://researchonline.rca.ac.uk/1812/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis explores the following questions: What might a 21st century expressionist art criticism consist of? How does such a mode of “art writing” relate to oppositional strategies often employed by certain artists challenging the boundaries traditionally separating art from writing? What role does the body play in such a model of writing? What role might fiction play in an expressionist art criticism? The intended outcome is to render a new model of writing “in the expanded field,” to borrow Rosalind Krauss’s phrase. The essays and pieces of writing comprising this dissertation have been organized into four sections. The first part, “Bad Writing,” lays the groundwork for the three stylistic modes of expressionist art criticism that follow: the Expressionist Essay, Ficto-criticism, and Object-Oriented Writing. Prefaces before each section elaborate the conceptual thinking involved in arriving at each particular designation, as well as the positioning of each mode in the overall conception of a 21st century expressionist art criticism. This thesis begins with the argument that art criticism must first and foremost be understood as a literary art form. This is an issue of intentionality that must be asserted at the outset, one that resonates with John Dewey’s notion of criticism’s re-creative and imaginative aim. It is one of the essential qualities that distinguishes art criticism from the art historical endeavor. I contend that the practice of art criticism is an art form in and of itself, one that, following the poet-critic model (or, more aptly, anti-model) advanced by Baudelaire and Apollinaire, is essentially complementary to the art object. This complementarity is what the task of an expressionist art criticism hopes to achieve. Thus, this thesis should be considered as an example of an art writing practice in the context of a thesis-based dissertation.

The purpose of this study was to identify the perceptions of elementary school principals in Southeastern Virginia regarding implementation of 21st century skills. The Partnership for 21st Century Learning Skills framework was used as a foundation to identify the skills needed for the 21st century. In addition, the framework was used to examine elementary principal's perceptions of the most important and relevant 21st century skills to implement in elementary schools.
A mixed method study of elementary school principals in Southeastern Virginia Public Schools was conducted. Principals from school divisions in Southeastern Virginia were identified and asked to complete a survey. An online research survey was distributed to Virginia principals to determine their perceptions of implementing 21st century skills in elementary schools in Virginia. This study revealed that elementary principals perceived 21st century skills as being "very important" and "very relevant" in elementary schools; however, the rate of embeddedness into the elementary curriculum was low. This study yielded valuable information regarding the perception of school leaders that might influence research, theory, practice and professional development of elementary school principals as we move further into the 21st century and its associated challenges and demands.Ed.

Guzman-Medrano, Gael. "Post-Revolutionary Post-Modernism: Central American Detective Fiction by the Turn of the 21st Century". FIU Digital Commons, 2013. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/917.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Contemporary Central American fiction has become a vital project of revision of the tragic events and the social conditions in the recent history of the countries from which they emerge. The literary projects of Sergio Ramirez (Nicaragua), Dante Liano (Guatemala), Horacio Castellanos Moya (El Salvador), and Ramon Fonseca Mora (Panama), are representative of the latest trends in Central American narrative. These trends conform to a new literary paradigm that consists of an amalgam of styles and discourses, which combine the testimonial, the historical, and the political with the mystery and suspense of noir thrillers. Contemporary Central American noir narrative depicts the persistent war against social injustice, violence, criminal activities, as well as the new technological advances and economic challenges of the post-war neo-liberal order that still prevails throughout the region.
Drawing on postmodernism theory proposed by Ihab Hassan, Linda Hutcheon and Brian MacHale, I argued that the new Central American literary paradigm exemplified by Sergio Ramirez’s El cielo llora por mí, Dante Liano’s El hombre de Montserrat, Horacio Castellanos Moya’s El arma en el hombre and La diabla en el espejo, and Ramon Fonseca Mora’s El desenterrador, are highly structured novels that display the characteristic marks of postmodern cultural expression through their ambivalence, which results from the coexistence of multiple styles and conflicting ideologies and narrative trends. The novels analyzed in this dissertation make use of a noir sensitivity in which corruption, decay and disillusionment are at their core to portray the events that shaped the modern history of the countries from which they emerge. The revolutionary armed struggle, the state of terror imposed by military regimes and the fight against drug trafficking and organized crime, are among the major themes of these contemporary works of fiction, which I have categorized as perfect examples of the post-revolutionary post-modernism Central American detective fiction at the turn of the 21st century.
