UNA CONFIGURAZIONE SMART HERITAGE PER I CONTESTI EURO-MEDITERRANEI

La ricerca intende proporre una strategia urbana e tecnologica costituita da elementi smart che sviluppino una capacità di progettazione tecnologica integrata su scala urbana ed edilizia, sovrapponendo al disegno della città smart contemporanea quella della valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale attraverso le nuove Tecnologie dell’Informazione e della Comunicazione (TIC). Attraverso la schedatura di alcune esperienze smart di appendici che raccolgono le strategie urbane di recupero più significative e di un glossario finale con i termini ricorrenti nel settore, la Dottoranda propone un punto di vista del modello Smart City che si lega al tema della valorizzazione urbana fornendo a pianific…

Information and communication technologies nel social housing per la terza età

2013

Nel contesto della cultura urbana contemporanea vi sono alcuni fattori che diventano sempre più caratterizzanti la condizione sociale sia generale sia relativa ad ambiti specifici, quale può essere quello sanitario. L’articolo approfondisce l’azione di alcune politiche europee relative alla prevenzione, alla promozione sanitaria e alle cure integrate per le persone anziane affette da demenza senile, mostrando particolare interesse verso le metodologie smart proposte dai nuovi modelli di rigenerazione urbana sostenibile, attraverso l’implementazione di ICTs, dalla scala urbana a quella dell’edificio domotico.

Intangible smart city inside tangible historic city: smart heritage as regeneration of Euro-Mediterranean realities

2014

The proposed research examines how EU policy is facilitating the construction of smart cities that are confronted with a cultural heritage to be protected, as is already happening in some urban realities of the Euro-Mediterranean band. We will proceed by making comparisons between the strategies adopted, through the identification of the most common civic practices and of the virtual infrastructure used. This article will bring to light how the virtual city descends into the historic one, how these two realities complement each other and when the virtual city makes use of that historical and material one.

Un disegno smart per Palermo

2014

Negli ultimi anni, il concetto di smart city tenta di creare un’idea di città sostenibile e pensante. Quali sono le condizioni per uno sviluppo urbano sostenibile intelligente? I progetti smart per Palermo, legati alla mobilità, alla riqualificazione urbana e all’efficienza energetica mirano all’applicazione di nuove tecnologie per rendere la città digitale più interattiva, efficiente e smart, caratterizzando il disegno della città pubblica di Living Lab, Open Data, crowdsourcing e progetti sulla creazione di spazi gestiti in tempo reale attraverso ICTs. L’articolo metterà in luce i nuovi modelli e i servizi smart che la città di Palermo sta proponendo per migliorare la propria realtà urban…

Digital Diasporas : An Overview of the Research Areas of Migrationand New Media Through a Narrative Literature Review

2019

Academic research on migration and the use of new media constitutes a growing field. The first studies dealing explicitly with the field appeared in the end of the 1990s. Now, it has become an established research area. The impact and importance of the new technologies for migrants is well established. Appropriation of ICTs and new media environments have become a ubiquitous feature of everyday life in migrant groups. The research area is still understudied, characterized by rapid changes and shifts, and is shaped by the changing structural conditions of migrants and the proliferation of forms of media. In this article, I provide an overview of the developing research area through a review …

Co-evolution of three mega-trends nurtures un-captured GDP – Uber's ride-sharing revolution

2016

Uber used a disruptive business model driven by digital technology to trigger a ride-sharing revolution. The institutional sources of the company’s platform ecosystem architecture were analyzed to explain this revolutionary change. Both an empirical analysis of a co-existing development trajectory with taxis and institutional enablers that helped to create Uber’s platform ecosystem were analyzed. The analysis identified a correspondence with the “two-faced” nature of ICT that nurtures un-captured GDP. This two-faced nature of ICT can be attributed to a virtuous cycle of decline in prices and an increase in the number of trips. We show that this cycle can be attributed to a self-propagating …

ICT and tourism impacts in islands

2018

New technologies can represent, for some aspects, both a problem and a precious resource. As we concerns, in tourism sector, ICT can help in managing and promoting destinations in a better way than in the past, especially in those cases where problems linked with the management of tourist flows and the need to manage a sustainable development exists. Monitoring tourism impact at the destination is a fundamental issue in order to respect the right pressure and to avoid negative effects in the destination and with the residents. There are several devices available and useful for different needs, therefore almost each kind of monitoring and analysis can be supported by the right tools. This kn…

Smart technological tools for rising damp on monumental buildings for cultural heritage conservation. A proposal for smart villages implementation in…

2023

The Madonie district, in the inner Sicily, is composed of 21 villages, custodians of heritage, traditions, and values that constitute the identity of this area, now exclusively entrusted to the collective memory of an increasingly elderly and inactive population. In the study area, full of tangible and intangible heritage, technological tools, can revitalize and reuse examples of architecture, especially monumental, whose main problem is a deep rising damp affecting the masonry. That is particularly critical for the historic/traditional architectures. This research implements, in one of the villages of the enclave, a new technology system, namely Information and Commu- nication Technology (…

Les competències digitals dels futurs docents. Una anàlisi amb estudiants de Magisteri d'Educació Infantil de la Universitat d'Alacant

2012

En el present treball desenvolupem l'estudi descritptiu realitzat sobre les competències digitals en alumnes de Magisteri d'Educació Infantil de la Universitat d'Alacant. L'objectiu de l'estudi ha estat conèixer les competències digitals pel que fa a l'ús i domini de les TIC per part de futurs docents. Com a eina de recollida de dades, hem fet servir el qüestionari validat per Guzmán (2008) Utilización de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación [TIC] en estudiantes universitarios. Els resultats obtinguts mostren un bon nivell d'ús i un bon domini de les eines de les TIC i, alhora, un bon domini en la competència digital.

La formación del profesorado de educación especial en tecnologías del aprendizaje y del conocimiento (TAC): de lo técnico a lo metodológico.

2016

“Las políticas tienen una repercusión directa en el acceso a la formación del profesorado, apoyo e información en relación a las TIC”, indica el informe de la Agencia Europea para el Desarrollo de la Educación Especial (EADSNE) (2003, p.47). En España, tanto la LOE (2006) como la LOMCE (2013), refuerzan el binomio TIC- inclusión. Es necesaria también una actualización del profesorado en habilidades TIC para apoyar la inclusión (EADSNE, 2014). A ello ayudan indicadores que nos permiten identificar a los docentes competentes (DIGICOMP, 2013), no solo en términos de conocimiento técnico de las herramientas tecnológicas (TIC), sino en metodologías de diseño didáctico (TAC). En los últimos años …
