Perceived challenges in implementing ICT in career services
2018
Information and communication technology (ICT) has gradually gained a firm foothold within the field of guidance counselling. There is evidence of significant progress in integrating ICT into career services and related practices; however, the potential for further improvement persists. With the continuous proliferation of new technologies, improving the implementation of ICT in career services has become increasingly important. In this article Dr Jaana Kettunen outlines research from career development experts’ perspectives; providing important insights into the perceived challenges involved in the implementation of ICT in career services. nonPeerReviewed
REFLECTIONS ON MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION
2012
Modern management has given an extremely important place to managerial communication. It considers communication as a vital component of the managerial system of all organizations. A successful manager is the one that can communicate with the persons that he or she is leading, and the performance of an organization can be conditioned by the manner in which managers communicate. The identification of employees with the organizational goals, their channeling of efforts for the common objectives, the ability of the manager to assess the results of his or her decisions can be accomplished only by using the resources of managerial communication. A laconic, delayed or confused managerial communic…
Comunicación digital y líneas de fractura en el paradigma de la agenda setting
2006
En: Doxa Comunicación : revista interdisciplinar de estudios de comunicación y ciencias sociales. ISSN 1696-019X n. IV, 2006, pp 37-58 Propone realizar una prospectiva que arroje alguna luz sobre las modificaciones que puede sufrir la teoría de la Agenda Setting, e incluso, eventualmente, su superación, por efecto del desarrollo de los sistemas de comunicación digital. La hipótesis de la que partimos es la de que, si bien la multiplicación y diversificación de medios de comunicación provocada por las tecnologías digitales no tiene por qué haber supuesto, hasta el momento, una diversificación de similar calado en lo que concierne a los temas de interés informativo sancionados por los medios,…
Services supérieurs et recomposition urbaine
2000
Since the 1980s, we have observed an increasing tendency o f specialized services like producer services to leave their « natural habitat » in the center o f large met ropolitan areas in order to re loc at e in suburban zones. This phenomenon is particularly apparen t in North American citi es and seems to be occurring around certain French cities too. This paperinvestigates the forms taken by this new trend, and the reasons behind it. Taking economic geography and economics of cities as our theoretical basis, we first describe the main forces deter mining the agglomeration o f producer services and their preference for certain big cities. Agglomeration factors are to be looked for not only…
University teaching and ICT. Materials online for training Cmap Tools
2013
En estas páginas presentamos una serie de materiales creados en un proyecto de elaboración de material de formación del profesorado universitario convocado por el Servicio de Formación Permanente de la Universitat de València. El objetivo fundamental del proyecto ha sido la creación de materiales en línea para aprender el funcionamiento del software libre Cmap Tools, elaborado por el Florida Institute for Human & Machine Cognition (IHMC). Los materiales de formación, desarrollados en la primera parte del proyecto, han consistido básicamente en la creación de vídeo tutoriales que muestran el procedimiento de descarga, instalación y las distintas utilidades del software y su aplicación a la d…
More than experience? On the unique opportunities of virtual reality to afford a holistic experiential learning cycle
2021
Virtual reality has been proposed as a promising technology for higher education since the combination of immersive and interactive features enables experiential learning. However, previous studies did not distinguish between the different learning modes of the four-stage experiential learning cycle (i.e., concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation). With our study, we contribute a deeper understanding of how the unique opportunities of virtual reality can afford each of the four experiential learning modes. We conducted three design thinking workshops with interdisciplinary teams of students and lecturers. These workshops resulted in…
Tunable and reconfigurable microwave filter by use of a Bragg-grating-based acousto-optic superlattice modulator
2005
We present an all-optical novel configuration for implementing multitap transversal filters by use of a broadband source sliced by fiber Bragg grating arrays generated by propagating an acoustic wave along a strong uniform fiber Bragg grating. The tunability and reconfigurability of the microwave filter are demonstrated.
Symmetry of root and root canal morphology of mandibular incisors: A cone-beam computed tomography study
2019
Background Aim of this study was to analyze the root canal configuration in mandibular central and lateral incisors in vivo using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging. Material and methods A total of 487 mandibular central incisors and 491 mandibular lateral incisors from 250 patients were examined using CBCT imaging, previously taken for diagnosis and treatment. The number of roots, root canal system configuration, presence of apical confluences, distance between confluences and radiographic root end, symmetry between left and right elements were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results All the examined teeth presented only one root. No significant differences were found betwee…
La mediazione o la difficile arte di mettere d’accordo nella Grecia antica. Cosa dire e come dirlo
2017
Conflict resolution always follows the same pattern, whether on an interpersonal or social level or between cities. This paper aims at illustrating the general patterns and at identifying some means of communication with the parties, both in terms of content and in terms of relationship. Regarding the content of the mediation, the following issues will be adressed: the reasons for the resolution, the appeal to a positive relationship between the parties and the mediator himself, the appeal to ‘collaborative individualism’, and the construction of a deep bond between the parties. Concerning relationships, the following issues will be discussed: the importance of a respectful attitude, the ro…
On utilizing dependence-based information to enhance micro-aggregation for secure statistical databases
2011
Published version of an article in the journal: Pattern Analysis and Applications. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10044-011-0199-9 We consider the micro-aggregation problem which involves partitioning a set of individual records in a micro-data file into a number of mutually exclusive and exhaustive groups. This problem, which seeks for the best partition of the micro-data file, is known to be NP-hard, and has been tackled using many heuristic solutions. In this paper, we would like to demonstrate that in the process of developing micro-aggregation techniques (MATs), it is expedient to incorporate information about the dependence between the random variable…
