Organismes de formation et alternance

1984

Jean-Jacques Paul, Die Ausbildungsstatten und der Ablauf der wiederholten Folgeausbildung : einige Beobachtungen nach dem ersten Jahr der in Kraft getretenen Massnahmen zur Qualifizierung der 16-18 jährigen (« Dispositif 16-18 »). Die mit der wiederholten Folgeausbildung gebundenen Einsätze sind vielfältig ; sie beziehen sich sowohl auf ihre pädagogischen Potentialitäten als auch auf das Risiko, die Einführung einer neuen von jungen Lehrgangbesuchern gebildeten Beschäftigtengruppe zu fördern. Diese Problematik wird hier durch die Analyse des ersten Ausbildungsjahres seit dem Inkrafttreten der Massnahmen zur Qualifizierung und beruflichen Eingliederung der Jugendlichen im Alter von 16-18 Jah…

Cogeneration from thermal treatment of selected municipal solid wastes. A stoichiometric model building for the case study on Palermo

2003

This paper aims to calculate the energetic and environmental effects of an integrated solid waste management system in Palermo, Italy. In particular, the thermal treatment of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with energy recovery is assessed. The current characterization at the local scale is taken into account. Two different options of collection are taken into account: (1) unselected wastes; and (2) sorted collection, according to the current Italian regulation. Combustion process is analyzed and the following features are calculated: (1) stoichiometric content of air and air excess; and (2) temperature and enthalpy of flue gases. Energy recovery is performed in the hypothesis of Hirn cycle bot…

The “manna” extracted from the ash trees still cultivated in Sicily from mythical food to pharmaceutical and nutraceutical resource

2022

“Manna” is the product obtained from the solidification of the elaborate sap that comes out of the incisions made during the summer season on the stem and on the main branches of some species of the genus Fraxinus (Oleaceae). The cultivation of manna ash trees dates back to ancient times in Sicily and elsewhere ash trees – known as sacred trees, a symbol of abundance and therefore auspicious – was increasingly widespread until the middle of the last century. Subsequently, however, the crop underwent a progressive decline, remaining relegated to restricted areas of Sicily, in particular in the Madonie district (Palermo, Italy). In this brief review, the essential characteristics of the manna…

Maximizing network capacity in an heterogeneous macro-micro cellular scenario

2011

The problem of resource allocation in cellular networks has been traditionally faced at two different levels: at the network level, in terms of frequency planning and reuse pattern design, and at the cell level, in terms of cell capacity optimizations based on channel-dependent scheduling, link adaptation, power control, and so on. While this second aspect has been deeply investigated in literature, the first aspect has been mainly faced with static or semi-dynamic reuse utilization solutions. In this paper we deal with the problem of multi-cellular resource allocation in heterogeneous OFDMA environments with reuse factor equal to 1, where base stations with different power constraints coex…

Organizational commitment and its effects on organizational citizenship behavior in a high-unemployment environment

2016

[EN] Organizational commitment is an important concept in management and a construct on which extensive research exists. This study considers the relationship of the three dimensions of organizational commitment (affective, normative, and continuance commitment) with employees' organizational citizenship behavior in a high-unemployment environment. By analyzing the effect of high unemployment on the displacement of the self-concept from individual toward relational and collective levels, this work predicts differences in the effect of unemployment on each of the organizational-commitment dimensions. The results show that in a high-unemployment environment the affective and normative dimensi…

PROMOTION OF ADULT EDUCATION IN THE INNOVATIVE BUSINESS

2015

The notions of adult education and innovative entrepreneurship have been described and analysed in the article. According to the characterization of the essence of notions, conditions of innovative entrepreneurship have been analysed. The emphasis has been put on the main problem concerning sustainable community development related to the contributions made to human resources and adult education, enabling innovative entrepreneurship oriented on the human ability to create and use their knowledge in constantly changing environmental conditions, responsible for work organisation satisfying current people’s social and economical needs, thought at the same time not endangering next generations.…

Online PR: emerging organisational practice

2001

This article describes recent changes in the media landscape where companies and organisations operate. Such changes have numerous impacts on the basic tenets of public relations as well as its practice, education and further education. The impacts are described, new practices for PR practitioners are identified, and guidelines are given. In the future, there will no longer be two kinds of PR practitioners persisting side by side: those using traditional tools and those practising online communication. Instead, PR practitioners will be expected to integrate all means of communication to be a part of their professional qualifications.

READING COMPETENCE AND ENGAGEMENT OF LATVIAN STUDENTS IN THE VIEW OF OECD PISA 2018 RESULTS

2020

Students' reading competence determines the achievements of learners in all areas of school education as well as in their further education, professional activity and life. The results of the OECD Program for International Student Assessment - OECD PISA 2018 confirm the need to improve reading competence in Latvia (OECD, 2019).The aim of the study is to analyze the achievement of Latvia's fifteen-year-old students in OECD PISA 2018 and the previous international program cycles in relation to students' reading engagement and its changes. Reading engagement significantly influences not only students' reading competence but are in themselves one of the goals of modern education (Guthrie & …
