Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hoy gran parte de las innovaciones reescriben las constelaciones de intereses en los sistemas económicos consolidados, por tanto, el desafío quizás sea transformar los sistemas económicos partiendo de los sistemas de intereses en juego y activar nuevos procesos que lo hagan posible, pensando un mundo mejor y que genere otras formas de relación y creación. Por esto mismo, actualmente no se puede entender el diseño más que como algo procesual y no como un proyecto ligado a un objeto terminado, con independencia de sus condiciones de producción y como si el usuario fuera algo ajeno a todo el desarrollo. Asimismo, concebir unas formas de trabajo en las que la interdisciplinaridad y la experiencia de grupo no sean meras retóricas, sino la verdadera esencia de las dinámicas dentro de este nuevo paradigma, se tornan fundamentales para volver a pensar el papel central del diseño en estos momentos. Es por ello que también se vuelve necesario reflexionar sobre las especificidades del diseño como disciplina y sus potencialidades como medio de comunicación y de construcción social. Todo esto conforma este número 4 de los Cuadernos de Diseño, que se entrega a pensar este ámbito de creación y acción que es el diseño de procesos, con el fin de identificar cuáles serán las condiciones para habitar el mundo en los próximos años y cuál debería ser nuestra posición frente al mismo.
Download or read book Cuadernos de Dise o 6 written by David Cuartielles and published by Editorial IED Madrid. This book was released on 2017-02-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vivimos en una sociedad-red, compleja, móvil y global, fruto de un hecho: la comunicación está en el centro de las transformaciones sociales. Este es un sistema cuyas características principales se conforman en torno a la “colaboración”, como nueva estrategia, y a la “red” como modelo de representación y acción. Se abre entonces un interesante campo de experimentación donde realidades locales y globales se encuentran en intersecciones abiertas. Es en este ámbito donde la cultura del proyecto debe pensar las dimensiones sociales y profesionales que forman parte de estos procesos en red y de la cultura participativa que surge en su seno. Ante este panorama, constatamos la necesidad de nuevos mapas del saber y de aquellos conceptos que nos permitan la interpretación de nuestra realidad. Con este fin, el sexto Cuaderno de Diseño propone una reflexión amplia, que considera la irrenunciable dimensión tecnológica, pero teniendo en cuenta también otras cuestiones relacionadas con la misma de cara a plantear los retos para el mundo del diseño. De esta forma, se inicia con varias reflexiones sobre lo que significa hoy estar en un sistema en red, tras lo que se aborda el punto central de este número: la enseñanza del diseño como campo de estudio en un contexto en red, su complejidad, sus prácticas y sus horizontes. En último lugar, también se estudian algunas experiencias actuales de trabajo en red, basadas en el asociacionismo tradicional y en formas de colaboración interpersonal. El conjunto de puntos de vista expuestos en este libro muestra las distintas relaciones que tejen toda red, las tramas que cobran forma y las ideas que harán posibles nuevos modelos para proyectar desde un mundo ‘descentrado’.

Download or read book Politics of the Everyday written by Ezio Manzini and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of us develops and enacts strategies for living our everyday lives. These may confirm the general tendency towards new forms of connected solitude, in which we work, travel and live alone, yet feel sociable mainly by means of technology. Alternatively, they may help to create flexible communities that are open and inclusive, and therefore resilient and socially sustainable. In Politics of the Everyday, Ezio Manzini discusses examples of social innovation that show how, even in these difficult times, a better kind of society is possible. By bringing autonomy and collaboration together, it is possible to develop new forms of design intelligence, for our own good, for the good of the communities we are part of, and for society as a whole.

This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 805 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching is a demanding profession as there is constant fluctuation and evolution. A portion of teaching is the ability to be able to adapt to various environments, especially shifting from in-person instruction to online practices. Over the last few years, early childhood and elementary school classrooms have been thrust into hybrid and remote learning environments, and it is vital that educators and institutions adapt to new practices and create various outlets for teachers to be able to more adequately reach their young audience. The Handbook of Research on Adapting Remote Learning Practices for Early Childhood and Elementary School Classrooms is a critical resource to assist teachers as they develop online teaching practices and work to cater to young students so that they can receive the strongest benefits from their education. Through coverage of topics such as hybrid learning and parental involvement, paired with sample lesson plans, course formats, concepts, ideas, and additional components to further the body of research pertaining to remote learning, this book is tremendously beneficial to administrators, researchers, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.
Download or read book Livable Proximity written by Ezio Manzini and published by EGEA spa. This book was released on 2022-02-10T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Livable Proximity is a passionate and compelling call for a remaking of the city under a novel paradigm of relationality and care by one of the most accomplished design thinkers of our time.” – ARTURO ESCOBAR This book is a contribution to the social conversation on the city and its future. It focuses on an idea that has been in circulation for some time and that, in recent years, has received greater attention: that of a city in which everything that is needed for daily life is just a few minutes away by foot from where people live. In addition, it speaks of a city in which this functional proximity corresponds to a relational proximity, thanks to which people have more opportunities to encounter each other, support each other, care for each other and the environment, and collaborate to reach goals together. Ultimately, it is a city built starting from the life of the citizens and an idea of livable proximity in which they can find what they need to live, and to do so together with others. The underlying theme that this book poses is thus the following: can we construct the contemporary city starting from a new idea of proximity? The response given is yes, it can be done. The social innovations of the last 20 years in fact indicate where to start. Many cities in the world, including Paris, Barcelona, and Milan have made a commitment and are taking steps in this direction, offering concrete examples of what this city of proximity could be: a city in which social innovation, care, common goods, communities of place, and enabling digital platforms become the keywords of a new and widespread social capacity to design.
Download or read book Tourism and Ethnodevelopment written by Ismar Borges de Lima and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnodevelopment is a well-established concept in the field of development studies. Despite its relevance to tourism initiatives and processes in the Global South, it continues to be an underutilised concept in the field. This book bridges this gap, presenting an original conceptual framework to study the relationship between tourism and ethnodevelopment. It focuses on the processes of inclusion, empowerment, self-expression and self-determination to explore the effects of tourism initiatives on the identities, cultural resilience, livelihoods and economic opportunities of ethnic minority communities. Chapters explore a range of concepts and issues such as gender, authenticity, indigenous knowledge, tradition, the commodification of culture, community-based tourism, local entrepreneurship, cultural heritage, and tourism and the environment. Drawing on rich primary research conducted across South East Asia and South and Central America the book offers detailed evaluations of the successes and failures of various tourism policies and practices. This book makes a valuable contribution for students, scholars, practitioners and policy-makers alike interested in tourism, development studies, geography and anthropology.
