Download or read book World Development Report 2019 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.

Download or read book TACCLE written by Graham Attwell and published by GO! Internationalisering. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for classroom teachers who want to know more about e-learning and who would like to experiment with designing e-learning material to use in their own classrooms. It is primarily targeted at secondary teachers but there is no reason why primary school teachers and adult education teachers should not find it useful too. The other group we had in mind were those of you still undertaking initial teacher training. Although there are some exemplary courses, a depressing number of trainee teachers continue to arrive in the classroom having barely heard the words ‘e-learning’, still less have hands on experience of it.

This book was released on 2013-12-08 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses the key issue of the initial education and lifelong professional learning of teachers of mathematics to enable them to realize the affordances of educational technology for mathematics. With invited contributions from leading scholars in the field, this volume contains a blend of research articles and descriptive texts. In the opening chapter John Mason invites the reader to engage in a number of mathematics tasks that highlight important features of technology-mediated mathematical activity. This is followed by three main sections: An overview of current practices in teachers’ use of digital technologies in the classroom and explorations of the possibilities for developing more effective practices drawing on a range of research perspectives (including grounded theory, enactivism and Valsiner’s zone theory). A set of chapters that share many common constructs (such as instrumental orchestration, instrumental distance and double instrumental genesis) and research settings that have emerged from the French research community, but have also been taken up by other colleagues. Meta-level considerations of research in the domain by contrasting different approaches and proposing connecting or uniting elements

Download or read book The Imagined Immigrant written by Ilaria Serra and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using original sources--such as newspaper articles, silent movies, letters, autobiographies, and interviews--Ilaria Serra depicts a large tapestry of images that accompanied mass Italian migration to the U.S. at the turn of the twentieth century. She chooses to translate the Italian concept of immaginario with the Latin imago that felicitously blends the double English translation of the word as "imagery" and "imaginary." Imago is a complex knot of collective representations of the immigrant subject, a mental production that finds concrete expression; impalpable, yet real. The "imagined immigrant" walks alongside the real one in flesh and rags.

Gamification is revolutionizing the web and mobile apps. Innovative startups like Foursquare and Swoopo, growth companies like Gilt and Groupon and established brands like United Airlines and Nike all agree: the most powerful way to create and engage a vibrant community is with game mechanics. By leveraging points, levels, badges, challenges, rewards and leaderboards – these innovators are dramatically lowering their customer acquisition costs, increasing engagement and building sustainable, viral communities.

You don’t need to offer real-world prizing to run a blockbuster sweepstakes. And learn even more: How to architect a point system that works Designing the funware loop: the basics of points, badges, levels, leaderboards and challenges Maximizing the value and impact of badges Future-proofing your design Challenging users without distraction Based on the groundbreaking work of game expert and successful entrepreneur Gabe Zichermann, Game-Based Marketing brings together the game mechanics expertise of a decade’s worth of research.

This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fin dai primi anni della scuola primaria, l’apprendimento della matematica pone i bambini di fronte ad alcune difficoltà che, se trascurate, possono portare a una serie di fallimenti e insuccessi che determinano perdita di autostima e totale disamore nei confronti della materia. Una matematica da favola propone una strada alternativa per aggirare tali ostacoli: la narrazione. I bambini amano ascoltare le storie, soprattutto se i protagonisti sono principi, maghi o ragazzini come loro, e proprio i racconti diventano qui un’efficace strategia per introdurre e chiarire in modo divertente alcuni concetti matematici, quali: • precedente e successivo; • proprietà delle operazioni e risoluzione dei problemi; • caratteristiche dei solidi ed equivalenze. Fondato su basi teoriche solide, l’innovativo metodo della NarrAzione didattica nasce dalla quotidiana esperienza di un’insegnante di scuola primaria con la passione per la didattica inclusiva: le schede operative si adattano infatti a tutti gli alunni, dai più competenti ai più fragili, compresi quelli con DSA o Bisogni Educativi Speciali. Le 9 unità didattiche prevedono: • suggerimenti per la pratica didattica; • favola o filastrocca; • schede operative. Diretto principalmente a insegnanti di scuola primaria, logopedisti e specialisti di didattica, Una matematica da favola – Volume 1 promuove inoltre l’instaurarsi di un clima sereno in classe attraverso l’educazione alla comunicazione assertiva.

Download or read book Matematica in allegria Classe prima written by Antonella Fedele and published by Edizioni Centro Studi Erickson. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La dimensione narrativa è di basilare importanza in una disciplina come la matematica, in quanto consente l’esercizio delle capacità cognitive in un contesto che coinvolge anche l’emotività e la fantasia. Partendo da questo presupposto, Matematica in allegria accompagna gli alunni della prima classe della scuola primaria in un percorso di apprendimento scandito in tappe di difficoltà crescente. Tra segni e simboli numerici si delinea un mondo ricco di immagini vivaci, come quelle che prendono forma nell’immaginario dei bambini. Personaggi come Topo Topotto, Pina Topina, Piero Topangelo e Patty Topina, con la loro carica di simpatia, coinvolgono tutti i bambini nella risoluzione di semplici calcoli e dei piccoli grandi problemi che si trovano ad affrontare ora per amore, ora per ingenuità, ora perché pasticcioni: «Quanti euro mancano per comprare l’anello a Pina Topina?» o «Quanti posti deve avere l’auto nuova per poter viaggiare anche con i nonni?». Ciascuna di queste situazioni costituisce un forte stimolo non solo all’acquisizione di conoscenze e abilità, ma anche al loro tradursi in competenze matematiche. Destinato a insegnanti della scuola primaria, il volume può essere utilizzato anche dai genitori che vogliano incuriosire, coinvolgere e motivare i propri figli attraverso schede operative, giochi e divertenti attività su: • Prerequisiti • Numeri fino a 10 • Numeri oltre il 10 • Spazio e figure • Misure.

Download or read book Imperial City written by Susan Vandiver Nicassio and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1798, the armies of the French Revolution tried to transform Rome from the capital of the Papal States to a Jacobin Republic. For the next two decades, Rome was the subject of power struggles between the forces of the Empire and the Papacy, while Romans endured the unsuccessful efforts of Napoleon’s best and brightest to pull the ancient city into the modern world. Against this historical backdrop, Nicassio weaves together an absorbing social, cultural, and political history of Rome and its people. Based on primary sources and incorporating two centuries of Italian, French, and international research, her work reveals what life was like for Romans in the age of Napoleon. “A remarkable book that wonderfully vivifies an understudied era in the history of Rome. . . . This book will engage anyone interested in early modern cities, the relationship between religion and daily life, and the history of the city of Rome.”—Journal of Modern History “An engaging account of Tosca’s Rome. . . . Nicassio provides a fluent introduction to her subject.”—History Today “Meticulously researched, drawing on a host of original manuscripts, memoirs, personal letters, and secondary sources, enabling [Nicassio] to bring her story to life.”—History
