Managing Uncertainty for Preventive Conservation     

Jane Henderson 《文物保护研究》2018,63(5):108-112

ABSTRACT

This paper examines how conservators engage with uncertainty when creating preventive conservation strategies. It argues that by recognising contexts in which uncertainty will be encountered conservators can develop effective management strategies. A typology of uncertainty explores a range of categories of uncertainty, their experience in preventive conservation and identifies distinct approaches to manage them. Managing uncertainty may include acts of defining its parameters, exposing and resolving through communication or protecting from with contingency. Whatever approach is adopted it must be accepted that uncertainty cannot be avoided. It is important therefore to aim to live well with uncertainty and the paper advocates for preventive conservation applications of strategies recommended in health care for patients with life-threatening illnesses. These strategies include working on things that can be controlled, goal setting, acceptance and factoring in emotions. The ability to identify contexts in which uncertainty is inbuilt should trigger those concerned with preventive conservation to activate strategies developed for managing and living well with uncertainty.  相似文献   

Technological capital: an alternative to the digital divide     

Andrew Carlson  Alyssa M. Isaacs 《Journal of Applied Communication Research》2018,46(2):243-265

This paper identifies individuals’ accumulated history with Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) as a replacement for the contested and outdated term ‘digital divide.’ We propose that an individual’s ability to benefit from their technological history consists of four factors: awareness, knowledge, access, and technological capacity of the user’s social collective. Together, these factors make up the individual’s level or amount of Technological Capital. The development of this construct was based on empirical research conducted in Soweto, South Africa, and through an analysis of the literature on assessing individuals’ accumulated histories. The concept of technological capital has the potential for application in fields in which ICTs are used for communication, capacity building, and identifying barriers to adoption of new technologies. The use of the concept may have implications for policy decisions, resource allocation, and future research into differences among individuals’ and communities’ ability to benefit from the introduction of new technologies.  相似文献

Reinventing the public value of libraries     

Nick Field 《Public Library Quarterly》2018,37(2):113-126

ABSTRACT

Libraries worldwide have had to re-think their purpose and adapt to changing community needs and expectations. They are no longer simply repositories for old books. Rather, they are vital components of a community’s social and economic infrastructure that connects communities and fosters creativity and innovation. This paper explores the changing role of libraries—and public value organizations more broadly—in creating positive social, economic, and environmental outcomes for individuals and communities.  相似文献   

Quality,Innovation, and Financial Sustainability     

Summer Harlow 《Journalism Practice》2018,12(5):543-564

Entrepreneurial, independent digital media sites arose in response to disruption in the journalism industry brought on by emerging technologies. This study explores this trend in Latin America from the perspective of audiences. Based on surveys of readers of entrepreneurial digital news sites in Guatemala and Nicaragua, this mixed-methods study offers a snapshot of who these readers are and what they are interested in. Results showed readers of the Guatemalan and Nicaraguan news sites valued equally quality journalism and innovation, but differed when it came to the importance they placed on the sites’ business models. This study also illuminated a new dimension of innovation, one from the readers’ perspective. While some respondents associated innovation with use of new technologies, in general readers defined innovation as unique (to the region) and alternative (to mainstream media) ways of doing journalism; their definition, unlike that of journalists, was not necessarily technologically driven.  相似文献

高校辅导员思想政治教育工作创新探究     

杨振龙 《河北旅游职业学院学报》2016,(2):88-92

辅导员是高校思想政治教育工作的骨干力量，是大学生日常工作的管理者以及各项业务工作有效开展的组织者，担负着培养社会主义接班人和建设者的重要使命。辅导员在育人工作中有着不可取代的作用，但实际工作中存在的问题无法适应新时期高校育人工作的要求，因此，高校辅导员思想政治教育工作创新势在必行。这是高校育人过程中践行“社会主义核心价值观”的迫切需要，也是促使高校辅导员沿着“职业化——专业化——专家化”发展的客观要求。  相似文献   

The current trends of leisure sports in France     

宝帝&#;古若米 《成都体育学院学报》2017,43(4)

Sport participation in France is characterized by deep trends that make more and more French people taking part in sport activities,and broaden the types of sports and physical activity they take part in. However,sport remains differentiated in the sense that strong differences can be observed between sports,and between individuals. Along these deep trends more micro-trends can be observed involving ei-ther the purpose of sport participation (e. g. search for adventure and fun)or the forms and modalities of this participation (e. g. individualisation and technologisation). Furthermore,sport participants are in-creasingly difficult to satisfy as they can mix several of these micro-trends,sometimes in a contradictory fashion,demonstrate multiple interests for various leisure sports and activities,which constitutes a signifi-cant challenge for leisure sport organisations.  相似文献

我国体育行政执法方式改革研究          下载免费PDF全文

梁尧 《体育科研》2019,(4):67-74

新时代对体育强国和体育法治建设提出了新要求，行政执法作为体育强国建设的重要抓手也面临着方式革新的机遇和挑战。简政放权背景下，体育执法面临着“应不应该管、怎样管”的尴尬处境，广为体育行政执法主体运用的强制性执法手段极易加剧执法矛盾，执法的社会效果得不到保障。由于传统执法方式难以适应新时代体育市场监管的现实需要，革新体育行政执法方式就显得尤为必要。面对时代课题，应遵照由“形式优化”到“实质革新”的逻辑，并树立行政平衡、服务合作和正当程序的理念，从引入信用工具、推广非强制性执法和全程说理式执法3个方面推进改革，实现体育行政执法方式的精简化、多元化和法治化。  相似文献
