How and why are educators using Instagram?     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2020

Social media are commonplace in many educators’ lives, but their Instagram activities have received no prior attention in the empirical literature. We therefore created and disseminated a survey regarding educators’ Instagram use. Analyses of 841 responses suggested participants were generally intensive users of Instagram who engaged in the exchange of both professional knowledge and wisdom, as well as affective support. In addition to identifying benefits to Instagram use, some participants offered critiques of Instagram’s professional utility. We discuss the implications of these findings for educators’ work in a digital era and the future of research on educators’ social media activities.  相似文献   

Decoding digital transformational outsourcing: The role of service providers’ capabilities     

《International Journal of Information Management》2021

The business process outsourcing industry has got disrupted, first by the significant shift in value creation activities from the clients to the service providers, and second by pervasive digital penetration, resulting in the emergence of Digital Transformational Outsourcing (DTO). Service providers now play a more significant role, making their capabilities important. In the new context, service providers require a uniquely different set of dynamic capabilities to handle end-to-end business functions on behalf of their clients while delivering digital value propositions.We study 26 of the largest global business process outsourcing providers to conceptualise and identify six dynamic capabilities of service providers salient in the new context, i.e., consultative, orchestration, insights, network management, knowledge access, and standardisation. Interviews conducted with industry experts provided evidence in support of the identified dynamic capabilities. A novel firm capability dataset was created using secondary data, and using fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA), we identify configurations for high and low performance and find them to vary by the firm's broad/narrow scope.  相似文献   

Engaging mothers with substance use issues and their children in early intervention: Understanding use of service and outcomes     

《Child abuse & neglect》2018

Mothers who use substances need integrated, multi-sectoral intervention services to support substance use discontinuation. We explored mothers’ service use at Breaking the Cycle, an early intervention and prevention program for pregnant and parenting women and their young children in Toronto, Canada. We conducted retrospective analyses of families’ service records and client charts (N = 160). Aims were to 1) describe women’s use of service, 2) examine how early engagement of pregnant women related to postnatal service use, and 3) examine the circumstances in which women ended their service relationship with Breaking the Cycle. Specifically, we examined circumstances at service ending relating to women’s service goals; custody status with children; and global substance-use, parent-child relationship, and child development outcomes. We found that these vulnerable women were actively engaged in many services and for a long duration, early engagement was associated with greater service use, and greater service use was associated with more positive circumstances upon ending service. Results provide support for a relational approach to service that promotes not only the relationship between mother and child, and mother and service provider, but also highlights relationships among staff, between staff and management, and between community partners as integral to effective service delivery. Integrating positive relationships at all levels is critical to support vulnerable families with complex needs.  相似文献   

Dialogic processes that enable student teachers' learning about pupil learning in mentoring conversations in a Lesson Study field practice     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2018

This study investigates dialogic processes in student teachers' mentoring conversations in field practice, where Lesson Study (LS) was used as a context for establishing a dialogic learning community in one student group in science. We apply an analytical framework associated with Sociocultural Discourse Analysis to identify utterances that have the potential to create a dialogic space and contribute to ‘interthinking’ among the participants. The findings show the important role of the mentor teacher as a facilitator and a ‘knowledgeable other’, challenging the student teachers to reflect on chosen activities using predictions and detailed observations related to pupils' learning.  相似文献

石剑兰  廖璠 《图书情报工作》2019,63(14):121-130

[目的/意义]探究美国公共图书馆少儿创客空间服务的实践案例及服务特色，以期为我国图书馆开展少儿创客空间服务提供参考。[方法/过程]参考2017年美国第10次"星级图书馆排行"评比结果，随机选取五星级图书馆中的30所公共图书馆为调查对象，其中有22所公共图书馆提供少儿创客空间服务，有4种少儿创客空间服务类型，通过典型案例的分析，归纳总结美国公共图书馆少儿创客空间服务的特色。[结果/结论]得出如下启示：重视培养少儿创客并构建少儿创客空间服务模式；促进少儿STEAM教育和创造活动，加大宣传力度以吸引女生关注科技；培养少儿自主学习能力和创造力；丰富少儿创客空间服务项目活动及先进的技术设备；重视协同与互助并加强人才队伍建设等。  相似文献   

A case analysis of E-government service delivery through a service chain dimension     

《International Journal of Information Management》2019

Unlike e-business few studies have examined how information is generated and exchanged between stakeholders in an e-government service chain to generate value for citizens. This case study applies the concept of service chains to empirically explore: a) how internal and external business activities in local government authorities (LGAs) contribute to electronic service delivery, and b) the impact that internal and external stakeholders have on these activities. The case study found that the diversity of stakeholders involved and lack of appropriate mechanisms for information exchange and collaboration are posing the biggest challenges for efficient local e-government service delivery.  相似文献   

The Impact of More,Better, Faster,Cheaper: How the PCC Influenced Everything That Followed     

Carol G. Hixson 《Cataloging & classification quarterly》2020,58(3-4):294-302

Abstract

The beginnings and the early years of the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC) had a profound impact on the approach taken to cataloging in North America and around the world. The commitment to standards, cooperation, and expanded access also had an impact that went far beyond cataloging operations. One library dean traces the evolution of her vision and contemplates how the PCC’s principles have shaped her entire career and have affected the libraries in which she has worked.  相似文献

“流空间”视角下粤港澳大湾区空间布局分级特征研究   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

杨思蓓  胡志华 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(1):93-99

为加快粤港澳大湾区区域一体化进程,基于“流空间”视角,以粤港澳大湾区11个核心城市为研究对象,从客运流、经济流、信息流三个维度建立数理统计模型,分析粤港澳大湾区的交通、物流和经济信息化水平,并综合运用Jenks自然断裂点法和Moran散点图对粤港澳大湾区进行空间布局分级特征研究。研究结果表明:粤港澳大湾区有两个增长极——广州和深圳;粤港澳大湾区以珠江为界,珠江东西两岸分级明显;港珠澳大桥的连通有助于加强流要素空间互动,发挥更强的区域辐射和带动作用,扩大H-H连绵区的分布范围。  相似文献   

离岸集装箱码头新装卸工艺模式下陆域集疏运堆场堆存空间分配     

杨晓斌  余思勤  沈一帆 《上海海事大学学报》2020,41(4):8-14

离岸集装箱码头因其岛屿面积限制，难以通过扩建码头内部堆场增加吞吐能力。为解决这个问题，提出一种离岸集装箱码头新装卸工艺模式。新装卸工艺模式是通过在离岸集装箱码头附近的陆域地带建设陆域集疏运堆场,与离岸集装箱码头进行协同装卸作业的模式。陆域集疏运堆场堆存空间分配的目标是满足离岸集装箱码头装卸作业预翻倒要求;单批次输送集装箱的量受到陆岛运输最大通行能力限制。根据上述目标与特点，构建新装卸工艺模式下陆域集疏运堆场堆存空间分配模型，并设计蒙特卡洛树搜索算法进行求解。通过算例分析验证模型的有效性。结果表明该方法能够满足陆域集疏运堆场堆存空间分配需求并提高离岸集装箱码头的吞吐能力。  相似文献
