Past, present, and future of green product innovation
2021
Firms are under constant pressure from various governmental and nongovernmental agencies to switch from conventional environmentally polluting products to green product innovations (GPIs). However, the relevant research pertaining to GPI has been published in a diverse set of journals that vary in their scope and readership and, therefore, the scholarly contribution to the topic remains largely fragmented. This study has utilised a systematic literature review approach to examine the literary corpus on GPI to paint a holistic picture of its different aspects. The content and thematic analysis of 85 studies resulted in the extraction of seven key research themes: organisational capabilities,…

Conception de documents numériques : Parcours méthodologique
2009
There is a strong social demand for studies of digital document. Yet our models of society and education are struggling to integrate issues related to these types of documents. However, the subject is less than half a century old, and so it is hardly surprising that the writing and training practices are just being developed. Like the book, the digital document involves many different skills and techniques in its development. The list of jobs tends to grow steadily: ergonomists, referencing specialists, information architects, programmers, designers, integrators ... It is therefore difficult to have a global view on all this know-how and the related methodologies. This special edition seeks…
COMMUNITY DETECTION IN TRIPARTITE NETWORKS OF UNIVERSITY STUDENT MOBILITY FLOWS
2021
The purpose of this study is to explore how the multimode network approach can be used to analyse network patterns derived from student mobility flows. We define a tripartite network based on a three-mode data structure, consisting of Italian provinces of residence, universities and fields of study, with student exchanges representing the links between them. A comparison of algorithms for detecting communities from tripartite networks based on modularity optimization is provided, revealing relevant information about the phenomenon under analysis over time. The findings are applied to a real dataset containing micro-level longitudinal information on Italian university students’ careers.
Classroom discussions: Possibilities and limitations for democratic classroom practices
2017
Are students offered possibilities to experience democratic practice in classrooms? Using an analysis of empirical data from classroom discussions in lower secondary school, this article identifies and explores two different types of classroom discussions which give students different positions: a conversation in which students are positioned as ‘poll respondents’, and a more deliberative conversation which positions students as learning debaters. The two forms of classroom discussions are discussed due to the way they give different meaning to democracy, and due to whether the student positions in the classrooms imply contribution to the subject matter and what is considered valuable knowl…
Karjeras mērķu kvalitātes un satura un proaktīvas karjeras uzvedības atšķirības dažādu kursu un līmeņu studentiem
2021
Maģistra darba mērķis bija noskaidrot, vai karjeras mērķu kvalitātei ir saistības ar proaktīvu karjeras uzvedību un kā karjeras mērķu saturs un kvalitāte un proaktīva karjeras uzvedība atšķiras dažādu nozaru, līmeņu un kursu studentiem. Pētījumā piedalījās 168 dažādu nozaru, līmeņu un kursu studenti. Izmantotas 3 aptaujas, kas adaptētas latviešu valodā darba ietvaros: Karjeras mērķu kvalitātes aptauja (Career Goals Quality, Greco, 2016), Karjeras mērķu aptauja (Career Goals, Seibert, Kraimer, Holtom & Pierotti, 2013) un Proaktīvas karjeras uzvedības aptauja (Proactive Career Behavior Measure, Strauss, Griffin & Parker, 2012). Pētījumā noskaidrots, ka karjeras mērķu kvalitātei un proaktīvai …
Stāstījuma žanri un popularizācijas diskursa līdzekļi TEDxRiga runās
2018
Šis darbs ir izveidots, lai noteiktu visplašāk izmantotos stāstījuma žanrus izvēlētajās ar zinātni saistītājās TEDxRiga runās, kā arī salīdzinātu tajās atrodamās popularizācijas diskursa valodas raksturiezīmes, kuras iegūtas šī darba veidošanas laikā, ar Mattiello (2017) pētījumu, kas veikts saistībā ar citām TED runām. Pētījumā izmantotā metode ir satura analīze. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka stāstījumi ir neatņemama TED runu žanra sastāvdaļa un atstāstījumi ir visplašāk izmantotais stāstījumu žanrs analizētājās runās. Pētījumā iegūtie rezultāti ļauj spriest, ka TEDxRiga runas nopietni neatšķiras no citām TED runām sev piemītošās pamatstruktūras un valodas raksturiezīmju ziņā, jo visās ru…

As Capable as Other Students: Tanzanian Women with Disabilities in Higher Education
2015
Globally, persons with disabilities are underrepresented in higher education. In sub-Saharan Africa, where opportunities for higher education are especially limited, women are unlikely to continue their education. This research investigates women in Tanzanian higher education with the double marginalisation of being a woman and having disabilities. The women were interviewed on what factors enabled access and participation for their educational success. A thematic analysis of qualitative data was applied. All of the women interviewed were motivated to complete their degrees. Key enabling factors were encouragement from their families and previous teachers, full participation in student life…
