Meeting others—supporting situation awareness on the WWW
2001
Abstract World Wide Web (WWW) techniques provide a simple interface, which is accessible almost everywhere. The WWW supports document sharing and information retrieval, but has no tools for direct user interaction, simply because the mechanisms to support user awareness are missing. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we present general concepts of situation awareness, which concerns the user interaction on the WWW platform, and a theoretical framework, which is used in examining existing awareness support systems. Second, we provide an analysis of PeopleAwarenessEngine, which supports situation awareness and enables user communication and collaboration on the WWW.
Presenting the Past: A Framework for Facilitating the Externalization and Articulation of User Activities in Desktop Environment
2006
Work processes are conducted in various contexts and they involve different tasks, interruptions, activities and actions. In all of these, tacit knowledge plays a part. Some part of that tacit knowledge can be externalized and articulated by continuously monitoring the users activities. Because the desktop environment is an integral part of almost any office work context, we chart the demands the unstructured and discontinuous nature of work puts on the management of desktop working context. We discuss possibilities to augment the users awareness of his/her desktop working environment by providing a context-aware application that can act as a map-like resource for the users past activiti…
Human capital and RD Driven Growth: analyse for France at regional level on the long run
2012
At the root of the Lisbon goal, for Europe, is placed the awareness for advocating a close link between growth and dissemination of advanced knowledge and innovation, on the one hand, and raising in general endowments in human capital, on the other hand, as to have power over the development of non-specific skills and boost efficiency. Much work in literature also stressed the interest of the position concerning traditional activities in the geography of innovation and links, in the long term, between the spatial distribution of longestablished skills and knowledge creation. Following Jones, in this approach, for which contribution to R&D and innovation explains half of the increase in weal…
Spoken Language Development and the Challenge of Skill Integration
2019
The development of phonological awareness, the knowledge of the structural combinatoriality of a language, has been widely investigated in relation to reading (dis)ability across languages. However, the extent to which knowledge of phonemic units may interact with spoken language organization in (transparent) alphabetical languages has hardly been investigated. The present study examined whether phonemic awareness correlates with coarticulation degree, commonly used as a metric for estimating the size of children's production units. A speech production task was designed to test for developmental differences in intra-syllabic coarticulation degree in 41 German children from 4 to 7 years of a…
From abugida to alphabet in Konso, Ethiopia
2019
Abstract This study examines the interplay between phonological awareness and orthography in Konso, a Cushitic language in Southwest Ethiopia. Thirty-two adults reading the Konso abugida but with minimal exposure to alphabetic literacy completed an orally administered phoneme deletion task. The responses were then examined using the minimal edit distance hypothesis (Wali, Sproat, Padakannaya & Bhuvaneshwari, 2009) as a framework for the analysis. The results suggest that the difficulty of a deletion was related to the way the phoneme was represented in the Konso abugida. Content-based error analysis of the incorrect responses gave indications of how Konso abugida readers’ processing of …
Relationships and linguistically sensitive teaching : Developing teacher practicum at Åbo Akademi University
2020
Project “Linguistically sensitive teaching in all classrooms” (Listiac) aims to make an impact on initial teacher education systems in Europe through action research. In line with European policies, the seven partner countries including Finland, Spain (the autonomous Basque country and Catalonia), Belgium, France, Slovenia, Lithuania and Portugal work together in providing competences and skills needed for handling linguistic diversity in our schools. Diversity education has been regarded nearly everywhere as an isolated ‘add-on’ course or study module (EC 2017). Thus, it has remained insufficiently mainstreamed as an integrated component of teaching practice. Listiac addresses this imbalan…
El biohuerto escolar como recurso en la educación intercultural
2013
La presente investigación analiza las posibilidades que ofrece el taller de biohuerto escolar como recurso en la educación intercultural por su capacidad para establecer nexos culturales entre dos contextos diferentes a través del conocimiento sobre las verduras y hortalizas. La práctica educativa se realizó en un colegio en Valencia que previamente había mantenido contactos interculturales con una comunidad nativa en la Amazonía peruana. Se siguió una metodología por objetivos a través de un programa de intervención constituido por actividades que abarcaban las diferentes áreas de conocimiento. A través de la asamblea, del análisis de tareas, de las encuestas y de las pruebas se pudo valor…
Are Facebook brand community members truly loyal to the brand?
2015
Investigates two Facebook brand communities and their relationship with loyalty.Community commitment is associated with community promotion behavior and loyalty.Community promotion behavior is associated with different types of loyalty.User activity in Facebook has little or no effect on brand loyalty. This study examines members of Facebook brand communities and tests the relationships between their commitment to the community and brand loyalty. A conceptual model on the linkages between brand community commitment, community promotion behavior and brand loyalty including attitudinal loyalty, repurchase intention and positive word-of-mouth (WOM) is developed and tested with two samples. Dat…
La consapevolezza professionale del docente
2017
Sono evidenziati alcuni caratteri specifici della consapevolezza professionale del docente come forma di meta-competenza di natura sia strategica sia tattica, riferibile al saper gestire se stessi nel contesto dei processi formativi e auto-formativi connessi con l’acquisizione di nuove competenze e/o con lo sviluppo ulteriore di competenze già presenti, in vista del loro trasferimento a nuovi contesti. E’ s analizzata e misurata la consapevolezza professionale di un gruppo di 744 docenti siciliani di scuole secondarie di primo e secondo grado, a partire dall’utilizzo di due strumenti di autovalutazione metacognitiva (il Questionario ALM e il Questionario MAI) e di uno strumento di autovalut…
