Global citizenship education in conflict-affected settings: Implications of teachers’ views and contextual challenges for the Lebanese case     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2020

Despite embracing GCED themes, the Lebanese National Curriculum faces multifaceted challenges rooted in conflict. The 1997 curriculum is still in effect with revision attempts encumbered. Interviews with 56 public school teachers in Lebanon confirm prevalent knowledge transmission practices of prescribed civics content and lack of support for progressive teaching and critical dialogue. Findings suggest few teachers prioritise GCED constructs, while most promote nationalistic citizenship notions contributing to marginalisation. Moving forward, teacher education should develop teaching practice and mindsets for sustainable GCED with the intent of emancipating teachers and students from the limitations of national curricula.  相似文献   

Business Intelligence Capabilities and Firm Performance: A Study in China     

《International Journal of Information Management》2021

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology expands the boundary of business practice, inducing the emergence and application of business intelligence (BI) that has promoted the transformation of information techniques to optimize business decision and operation. However, there is a lack of theoretical consensus and measurement of the technology embedded in BI at present. This study exploratively develops the Sense-Transform-Drive (STD) conceptual model of BI based on dynamic capabilities theory and organizational evolutionary theory to explain the core BI capabilities. By using factoring analysis and structural equation modeling analysis, we extract the latent constructs and empirically verify the validity of the STD model and further examine the correlation and mode of interaction of the three core BI capabilities and the impact of BI application on firm performance in the real economy with a sample contextual to Chinese business practices. The study results show that there are direct and high-intensity cumulative positive effects among the structural components of the STD conceptual model and BI-related dynamic capabilities can enhance operating efficiency and firm performance.  相似文献   

Modelling Quoting in Newswriting: A Framework for Studies on the Production of News     

Lauri Haapanen 《Journalism Practice》2020,14(3):374-394

ABSTRACT

The Mediated Social Communication (MSC) approach considers mass media a venue for opposing and complementary societal groups to publicly negotiate socially relevant topics. This negotiation is conducted through representatives of these groups and mediated by journalists. Inspired by the MSC approach, this paper presents an empirically grounded model that structures the mediating process through the process of quoting. By identifying the key phases of newswriting as sub-processes of quoting, the paper argues that journalists (1) decide on a topical issue to be addressed (topicalisation), (2) identify groups of people who are linked to this issue (societal localisation), (3) pick some people as representatives of these societal groups (personalisation), and (4) verbalise these people's points of view, often by means of quoting, inter alia (verbalisation). The four-phase model is then operationalised into a data collection method that facilitates access to and fosters new insights into the subtle dynamics of newswriting. Hitherto, these dynamics have often remained obscure, because the craft ethos is adopted as tacit knowledge through implicit socialisation and is therefore difficult for journalists to verbalise. The paper concludes by calling for reconsideration of journalists’ role as gatekeepers who decide which issues and voices are heard in public discourse.  相似文献   

Toward a moral economy of money? Money as a creature of democracy     

Jakob Feinig 《Journal of Cultural Economy》2020,13(5):531-547

ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a novel approach for understanding money users’ relation to monetary governance institutions. It first describes the stakes involved in monetary governance from a neo-chartalist/MMT perspective. In a second step, it discusses existing contributions on the relation between money issuer and money users, highlighting the literatures on central bank legitimacy and the social construction of money. It argues that neither allows for an analysis of the relation between monetary institutions and money users that takes the latter’s knowledge seriously. It then argues that the concept of moral economy can enrich scholarly analysis. Moral economies of money are defined as collective practices in which money users articulate demands as part of an understanding of money as a public good. Finally, the paper deploys the moral economy of money perspective to reconstruct the changing relation between institutions of monetary governance and money users since the Great Depression in the U.S. It shows how New Dealers silenced a moral economy of money, discusses fragmented moral economies after World War II, and the partial reemergence of such moral economies after the Great Financial Crisis. The paper concludes by discussing political implications and suggestions for further research.  相似文献   

MARC to BIBFRAME: Converting the PCC to Linked Data     

Jacquie Samples  Ian Bigelow 《Cataloging & classification quarterly》2020,58(3-4):403-417

Abstract

The Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC) has formal relationships with the Library of Congress (LC), Share-VDE, and Linked Data for Production Phase 2 (LD4P2) for work on Bibliographic Framework (BIBFRAME), and PCC institutions have been very active in the exploration of MARC to BIBFRAME conversion processes. This article will review the involvement of PCC in the development of BIBFRAME and examine the work of LC, Share-VDE, and LD4P2 on MARC to BIBFRAME conversion. It will conclude with a discussion of areas for further exploration by the PCC leading up to the creation of PCC conversion specifications and PCC BIBFRAME data.  相似文献   

Breaking Down Barriers for Student Parents and Caregivers with Family-Friendly Library Spaces     

Anne Cooper Moore  Rebecca Croxton  Lindsey Sprague 《图书馆管理杂志》2020,60(3):215-234

Abstract

In 2016, J. Murrey Atkins Library at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte opened a reservable study room where student parents and caregivers can study with their children on campus. In 2018, the library opened a second family-friendly study room to meet the needs of our growing campus community. To inform the room design, the library conducted a mixed methods research study that included a user survey, an examination of room reservation and usage data, and one-on-one user interviews. This paper focuses on the user-centered design process used to inform the development of the second, family-friendly, library study room.  相似文献   

基于DE-SVM的船舶航迹预测模型     

刘娇  史国友  杨学钱  朱凯歌 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(1):34-39

为提高船舶航迹预测精度,解决准确建模难度大和神经网络易陷入局部最优的问题,考虑实时获取目标船AIS数据较少的特点,提出一种基于支持向量机(support vector machine,SVM)的航迹预测模型。选择AIS数据中的航速、航向和船舶经纬度作为样本特征变量;采用小波阈值去噪的方法处理训练数据;采用差分进化(differential evolution,DE)算法对模型内部参数寻优以提高模型收敛速度和预测精度。选取天津港实船某段航迹的AIS数据,比较基于DE-SVM与基于BP神经网络的航迹预测模型的仿真结果。结果表明,基于DE-SVM的航迹预测模型具有更高的预测精度,简单、可行、高效,且耗时少。  相似文献   

基于NSGAⅡ的带时间窗生鲜品配送路径优化     

李善俊  陈淮莉 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(2):58-64

考虑到生鲜品的易腐性、高时效性和对运输环境要求高的特点,为减少生鲜品配送企业的配送成本,提高客户满意度,在车辆载重、时间窗、生鲜品保质期等约束条件下,提出将配送总成本最小化和生鲜品新鲜度最大化的多目标车辆路径优化模型。利用改进的非支配排序遗传算法(non-dominated sorting genetic algorithmⅡ,NSGAⅡ)对模型进行求解。求出满足配送总成本最小和生鲜品新鲜度最大的相对较优解,证明模型的有效性。该模型在大规模配送和客户地理位置分布较为分散的情况下,对生鲜品新鲜度的优化较为明显。  相似文献

何景师  张智勇 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(4):62-69

为识别与评价集装化危险品物流作业的风险因素，通过鱼骨图分析法构建风险因素评价指标体系。以风险发生的概率和后果为决策变量建立基于熵权 层次分析法（analytic hierarchy process, AHP）约束的数据包络分析(data envelopment analysis, DEA)法的风险评价模型。利用熵权 AHP解决传统DEA法的权重无限性问题，利用DEA法求解风险极大、极小值并对风险因素进行评价与排序。研究发现，人员风险、包装风险达到风险极大值，集装箱风险达到风险极小值。研究得到各风险因素决策单元的风险降低比例，并根据风险因素的特点提出集装化危险品物流作业风险管理的建议。结果表明了该评价模型的适用性和评价方法的科学性。  相似文献   

基于隐马尔科夫模型的VLCC目的港预测     

杨春  王一丹  徐晖  胡勤友  潘亚兰 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(4):42-49

超大型油船(very large crude carrier，VLCC)目的港预测对海运原油流向预测以及货源地未来运力估计具有重要作用。针对VLCC的AIS目的港信息存在缺失、更新不及时、不准确等现象，提出一种基于隐马尔科夫模型的VLCC目的港预测方法。分析船舶AIS轨迹数据，得到油船历史停靠港口序列；根据VLCC轨迹提取习惯航路，以航路中的交叉点为依据设置观测线；利用船舶航行轨迹数据判断船舶是否经过观测线以及经过观测线的方向，对不同方向分别计算船舶在挂靠港间的转移概率矩阵和船舶挂靠港与观测线间的输出概率矩阵，建立VLCC目的港预测模型并进行预测。研究结果表明：在大多数情况下VLCC目的港预测的准确率可以达到70%以上；航线越固定、运行越规律的船舶，预测准确率越高；船舶越靠近目的港，预测越准确；重载状态下的船舶目的港预测更准确。  相似文献
