De los videojuegos a la gamificación como estrategia metodológica inclusiva
2021
Resumen Uno de los retos para la educación del futuro es asegurar la participación y el aprendizaje de un alumnado cada vez más heterogéneo, con intereses y capacidades muy diversas. Esta situación ha obligado a la comunidad educativa a evolucionar y buscar nuevas formas de enseñar y aprender más activas, motivadoras y cooperativas. Una de las estrategias metodológicas que está implantándose actualmente en la educación con resultados positivos es la gamificación, ya que aplica las mecánicas propias de los videojuegos que atraen e interesan a la población infantil y juvenil, y las traslada a entornos formales como las aulas. En concreto, este artículo de investigación analiza el uso de la ga…
Efectos del capital psicológico en el comportamiento innovador
2013
Este trabajo analiza el impacto del Capital Psicológico del líder sobre el Comportamiento Innovador de los colaboradores en la organización, estableciendo la influencia que en ello tienen los factores Capacidad de Aprendizaje Organizacional y Apoyo o Intercambio entre los miembros del Equipo (Team Member Exchange). El Capital Psicológico, un constructo de segundo orden que incorpora los recursos psicológicos positivos, eficacia, esperanza, optimismo y resiliencia, tiene la posibilidad de construirse sobre el individuo, a diferencia de otros rasgos de la personalidad que normalmente son permanentes en el tiempo, permitiendo a la organización un desarrollo continuado y un impacto favorable en…
Determinants of Individual Knowledge Innovation Behavior
2021
With the upsurge of "emotional storm" in the field of organizational behavior, the studies on individual emotions in organizational context are rising. Especially the relationship between emotions and knowledge innovation has attracted much attention by scholars. In particular, individual emotions may exert great effect on knowledge innovation whereas the mechanism is still unclear. Based on the emotional event theory, this paper constructs a model which explores the interaction of positive and negative emotions with individual knowledge innovation. Based on questionnaire data analysis, the results show that knowledge sharing partly mediate the relationship between positive emotion and know…
DESIGN E TRANSIZIONE DIGITALE : nuove sfide design-driven per l’innovazione tecno-sociale
2022
How can it be possible to work salvifically on an asphyxiated society that is beingdragged down by turbo-capitalism, the ‘soft tyranny’ of algorithms and ‘data-cracy’and marked by hegemonic and centralised socio-technical systems? Starting from the-oretical reflections and multidisciplinary contributions, this paper focuses on the strate-gic importance of techno-social innovation, critically illustrating some significant design-driven experiences that outline innovative lines of development in the field of design re-search: WASP’s experimental activity (3D printing), Manzini’s reflections on hybrid localcommunities and cities in chaotic mutation, the projects of hacktivists Persico and Ia-c…
Are quality management practices enough to improve process innovation?
2015
The popularity of quality management as a system for continuous improvement has not been accompanied by deep theoretical understanding of its effects on process innovation. In this work, the resource-based view serves as the basis for the construction of a model designed to explain the effects of quality management practices (QMP) on process innovation performance and the mediating role of dynamic capabilities in this relationship. The empirical data were analysed using the structural equation modelling technique by examining 6 competing models that represent full, partial mediation and non-mediation relationships on a sample of 550 Spanish industrial companies. The findings indicate that t…
Market outlook, production chain and technological innovation for Pleurotus nebrodensis mushrooms
2013
This chapter provides a report of a marketing investigation performed in synergy with private companies in order to activate a production chain for the cultivation and trade of Pleurotus nebrodensis. A recent experience of technological innovation carried out in a farm of the Madonie (N. Sicily) territory is also presented. Notes on the status of Critically Endangered species and pertinent legislation are also provided.
An insight into museum innovation. Theoretical development and empirical study in the case of museums from Valencia Region of Spain
2017
En los útimos años, tanto desde el mundo académico como entre los responsables polı́ticos, se ha puesto énfasis en la transformación del modelo competitivo, para el desarrollo nacional o regional, a partir de la innovación basada en los sectores culturales y creativos. En este sentido, los museos, como instituciones contenedoras de patrimonio, pueden convertirse en un importante vehı́culo de transmisión de la innovación que apoye la inclusión social y el desarrollo regional, tanto en España como en las distintas regiones mediterráneas, ahora que se enfrentan a los desafı́os provocados por la reciente crisis. Sin embargo, el estudio y la comprensión de los procesos de innvoación…
Exploring User Acceptance of Free Wireless Fidelity Public Hot Spots : An Empirical Study
2008
Research regarding commercial and free wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) public hot spots acceptance and adoption is sketchy. Therefore, it has become imperative to understand the critical factors that affect their acceptance. The focus of this study is free Wi-Fi public hot spot users, with the objective to better understand their user acceptance. In doing so, this study integrated two well-established initial acceptance models, specifically, the technology acceptance model and the diffusion of innovation theory. This study was conducted using an on-line survey that collected data from 129 users. It uses the Partial Least Square (PLS) technique to examine the relationship between variables. The re…
Extending the Technology Acceptance Model with Personal Innovativeness and Technology Readiness : A Comparison of Three Models
2016
This study concentrates on the role of personal traits in technology acceptance by comparing which of the two personal trait constructs commonly used in IS research, personal innovativeness in the domain of information technology (PIIT) or technology readiness index (TRI), performs better in terms of promoting the explanatory power of the technology acceptance model (TAM). The comparisons are conducted in the case context of online services offered by electric suppliers, and the study is based on the data collected from 1,176 consumers through an online survey and analysed by using structural equation modelling (SEM). The findings of the study show that the inclusion of both PIIT and TRI in…
Monografie di Agathòn. Atti del Symposium East-West Artistic and Technological Contaminations/Oriente-Occidente. Contaminazioni Artistiche e Tecnolog…
2013
AgAthón, the Ph.D.’s journal collecting together the best of the works about the renovation and the enhancement of ancient contexts, has had increasing success among institutions and both Italian and foreign researchers. The choral pattern chosen in the four sectors, which alludes to the Greek city, has certainly contributed to create this appreciation: the Agorá, like the central space in the pólis, for guest contributions; the Stoá, the covered portico under which the philosopher Zeno used to teach his disciples, for the Ph.D. teachers’ contributions; the gymnásion, the place of endeavour for young Greeks training their bodies and minds, is the section meant for the doctoral candidates; l…
