Edukacja jutra determinanty przemian systemu edukacji w Polsce i na Ukrainie

2016

W artykule przedstawiono problemy edukacji jutra w Polsce i na Ukrainie. Zdefiniowano problemy ukraińskiego systemu edukacyjnego,utrudniające rozwój jednostki i społeczeństwa. Przeanalizowano przyczyny niestosowania właściwego podejścia do edukacji w programach nauczania i podręcznikach. Zaproponowano zmianę podstawowych aspektów polskiej i ukraińskiej edukacji, aby mogły sprostać wymaganiom współczesnego świata. Konkludując zaprezentowaną refleksję, raz jeszcze należy przypomnieć,iż współczesne przemiany edukacyjne oparte być muszą na ustanawianiu strategii oraz działań szczegółowych w zakresie uczenia się na przestrzeni całego życia. Od powodzenia w realizacji tego przedsięwzięcia zależeć…

Learning 2.0 : the online community for apprenticeship

2012

International audience; Training courses are a strategic challenge for any organizations. E-learning solutions appears as a relevant alternative for the company training expense (fewer raised prices for the customer, fewer traveling for the learners and trainers, mentored learning, timetable flexible…). Recently, the emerging of Web 2.0 eras has shown that the online user behavior has changed. Now, the online users are likely to share their knowledge and gain acknowledgement How the construction of e-learning communities, in mobile or non-mobile using spaces, appears as efficient for distant apprenticeship? Our paper deal with a communicational approach of the e-learning for professional tr…

The Impact Of Hybrid Infrastructure On Trust, Motivation And Knowledge Sharing In An Intentional Community: A Latvian Case Study

2013

The role of ICT infrastructure in enhancing innovation processes through fostering knowledge and information exchange is a controversial topic in regional science. Opposing views exist, in particular, with regard to two topics: a) the persistence of a specific role of geographical proximity in knowledge exchange processes in the age of global virtual networking; b) the capability of virtual networking to recreate the social assets of a physical community (trust, solidarity?). Existing studies primarily focus on aggregated data, rely on doubtful epistemological assumptions (e.g. the equation of information with knowledge), and neglect several epistemological principles of social cognition (e…

Network-based indices of individual and collective advising impacts in mathematics

2020

AbstractAdvising and mentoring Ph.D. students is an increasingly important aspect of the academic profession. We define and interpret a family of metrics (collectively referred to as “a-indices”) that can potentially be applied to “ranking academic advisors” using the academic genealogical records of scientists, with the emphasis on taking into account not only the number of students advised by an individual, but also subsequent academic advising records of those students. We also define and calculate the extensions of the proposed indices that account for student co-advising (referred to as “adjusted a-indices”). In addition, we extend some of the proposed metrics to ranking universities a…

Connecting others: Does a tertius iungens orientation shape the relationship between research networks and innovation?

2021

Research on social networks and innovation emphasizes that individuals spanning structural holes and crossing institutional boundaries have more opportunities for knowledge recombination and innovation involvement. However, transforming the potential knowledge and resources available through personal networks to attain innovation can be difficult for the focal individual. Using an ego-network approach, this study examines whether and to what extent an individual strategic orientation to cooperation (i.e. tertius iungens) contributes to strengthening the relation between two personal network properties (structural and institutional separation) and involvement in innovation. Our analysis is c…

Problems of Transferring Knowledge on the Example of Recommendations from Evaluation of European Funds in Poland

2019

This article presents the conditions of creating a system for implementing recommendations from evaluation studies which were conducted within the cohesion policy in Poland. The purpose of this analysis was to identify main problems and barriers related to the transformation of evaluation studies into practical recommendations, and to identify factors affecting the adoption and implementation of recommendations by recipients and stakeholders of evaluation. Conclusions were based on the desk research of such documents as: guidelines and procedures for the implementation of evaluation, evaluation and meta-evaluation reports, recommendation and implementation tables. The main barriers and fact…

Socioeconomic differences in selected dietary habits among Norwegian 13–14 year-olds: a cross-sectional study

2014

Background: Social inequalities in health are a major and even growing problem in all European countries.Objective: The aim of the present study was to describe 1) differences in dietary habits among Norwegian adolescents by gender and socioeconomic status; 2) differences in self-reported knowledge of dietary guidelines among their parents according to socioeconomic status.Design: In 2012, a cross-sectional study where students filled in a web-based food frequency questionnaire at school was conducted in nine lower secondary schools in Vest-Agder County, Norway. Socioeconomic status (SES) and knowledge of dietary guidelines were obtained from the parents using a web-based questionnaire. In …

Towards Seamless IoT Device-Edge-Cloud Continuum:

2021

In this paper we revisit a taxonomy of client-side IoT software architectures that we presented a few years ago. We note that the emergence of inexpensive AI/ML hardware and new communication technologies are broadening the architectural options for IoT devices even further. These options can have a significant impact on the overall end-to-end architecture and topology of IoT systems, e.g., in determining how much computation can be performed on the edge of the network. We study the implications of the IoT device architecture choices in light of the new observations, as well as make some new predictions about future directions. Additionally, we make a case for isomorphic IoT systems in whic…
