Il libro nasce a valle del convegno “more E less/nuovi Stili di vita e di Consumo”, organizzato dal Dipartimento di Design della Facoltà di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo. I contributi intendono promuovere e sensibilizzare il tema dei consumi e dei comportamenti responsabili e sostenibili, iniziando dalle azioni quotidiane e dagli stili di vita, come fattore strategico, per favorire una migliore qualità della vita. Gli interventi del convegno, presentano analisi e riflessioni sull’apporto che iI design può fornire per lo sviluppo di prodotti sostenibili, prendendo in considerazione: le risorse locali, la riduzione delle emissioni di CO2, l’uso delle fonti di energia rin…

Le biblioteche nell'economia della condivisione: i bibliotecari contribuiscono allo sviluppo sostenibile

2020

Abbiamo di fronte a noi, con la crescita della “Sharing Economy” (anche denominata economia della condivisione), un “nuovo paradigma economico”: una visione e un approccio nuovi per comprendere l’economia e il mondo. Per i bibliotecari, la sharing economy investe proprio tutte le ragioni e i compiti della loro profes-sione, con particolare riguardo alle caratteristiche di mutualità, di rafforzamento del tessuto relazio-nale della comunità, di aumento delle possibilità di accesso alla educazione e alla cultura. Nel conte-sto attuale bisogna sottolineare questo approccio economico per guadagnare efficienza nel consumo dei beni e per una migliore gestione dei beni comuni, che s’intreccia con q…

Le due crisi: crisi del capitalismo e crisi ambientale. Una soluzione sostenibile? (parte II)

2016

Vista nella Parte I la gravità della crisi ambientale, soprattutto l’instabilità climatica che caratterizzerà le prossime decadi, nella parte II si esplicitano le ragioni profonde della necessità di cambiare, e come, il modello di sviluppo. Negli ultimi quarant’anni la crisi ecologica non è mai diventata una variabile importante nelle politiche economiche. Colpa del neo-liberismo imperante, dall’ “unilateralismo” dell’amministrazione USA al “fiscal compact” della UE? Sì, ma anche le altre scuole economiche commettono lo stesso errore. L’attuale crisi del capitalismo è una crisi di sovrapproduzione, il cui carattere quantitativo, dovuto all’innovazione tecnologica nel mercato globalizzato, r…

Nowadays different and various forms of resilience draw our attention but, there is no doubt that, among all the inflated meanings of this term, we are greatly attracted by the one concerning the ability of the material itself to regenerate in a different present when it is widely employed both in sophisticated technologies and also in very simple methodologies to support Man in his research, his knowledge and his production in a world still to be planned far from the logic of the brutal beton. Today the anthropic world of what has already been built must be reconsidered in terms of redesign, systemic rewording, methods and results employed in the making (even in the case of new artifacts).…

Retos y oportunidades de la tecnología móvil en la educación física (Challenges and opportunities of mobile technology in physical education).

2019

La educación física (EF) y su profesorado están llamados a seguir procesos de inmersión digital, voluntarios o involuntarios, asociados al consumo masivo de medios y servicios digitales y a las demandas de la sociedad y de la institución educativa. El uso de tecnología, especialmente la móvil, social y ubicua, se generaliza personal y profesionalmente, aunque la escuela sigue sin encontrarle acomodo. Reconoce su potencial didáctico, pero no logra alcanzarlo. En la EF el uso de tecnologías tradicionales y fijas han demostrado su utilidad en la fase preactiva y postactiva del acto didáctico, sin embargo, los aprendizajes en movilidad propios de la fase activa, aconsejan explorar alternativas …

Teachers' attitudes, competencies, and readiness to adopt mobile learning approaches

2014

This study explores how teachers' attitudes and competencies influence their willingness to adopt mobile learning approaches. By mobile learning we mean teaching approaches that use mobile devices to enliven and extend traditional teaching. Of particular interest is exploring how first-order (e.g. lack of adequate access, time, training and support) and secondorder (e.g. teacher's pedagogical and technological beliefs and willingness to change) barriers affect teachers' beliefs and attitudes. In the autumn of 2012, we conducted three mobile learning case studies in Central Finland. We used semistructured interviews to collect data. The study indicated that positive experiences raised teache…

Teachers’ Focus of Attention in First-grade Classrooms: Exploring Teachers Experiencing Less and More Stress Using Mobile Eye-tracking

2021

This study investigated teachers’ focus of attention and stress in first-grade classrooms. Teachers’ (n = 53) focus of attention was recorded in fall and spring with a mobile eye-tracking device, and the teachers reported stress via questionnaires. Correlation analysis was used to examine association between teacher stress (exhaustion, cynicism, and inadequacy) and focus of attention. Then, one teacher reporting more stress and one reporting less stress were selected for a case study to examine variations in their focus of attention. The results showed positive associations between teachers’ perceived inadequacy and overall focus of attention (whole eye-tracking recording) both in fall and …

Development of Waste Collection Model Using Mobile Phone Data: A Case Study in Latvia

2020

In organizing household waste management and controlling waste collection and disposal, it is necessary to minimise risks to the environment and human health and, where possible, ensure that waste is recycled and returned to the economic cycle. Different models are being applied to increase waste collection management efficiency, but in recent years, the mobile phone data is widely used to solve various application problems. The research objective is to develop a waste collection model, which responds to the population’s current demands and allows planning waste container loading, based on mobile phone data statistics. The developed approach, techniques and data model can be used for waste …

An Initial Security Analysis of the Personal Transaction Protocol

2003

Our society is becoming increasingly dependent on the rapid access and processing of information. The number of handheld mobile devices with access to the Internet and network-based software and services is exploding. Research indicates [1] that by the end of 2002 there will be over 1 billion mobile phone owners globally with Internet access, and that this number is going to grow exponentially in the nearest future. By 2006 the number of interconnected mobile device users is expected exceed the worldwide Internet subscriber population. It is estimated that in a few years there will be three times as many of these devices worldwide as personal computers.
