Download or read book SmartGrids les r seaux lectriques intelligents written by SABONNADIERE Jean-Claude and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'avènement de la libéralisation des marchés de l'énergie a été un facteur clé de succès du développement des énergies renouvelables et de la maîtrise de la demande en énergie. L'insertion massive des productions décentralisées intermittentes sur les réseaux de distribution engendre une complexité de fonctionnement qui est préjudiciable à la sécurité. L'introduction des technologies de l'information et de la communication permet de pallier cette difficulté et ouvre des perspectives nouvelles dans la maîtrise de la demande énergétique en intégrant le consommateur dans le pilotage du réseau. C'est l'objet de l'ouvrage consacré aux réseaux intelligents connus sous le nom de SmartGrids. Le concept de Smartgrids est abordé sous diverses facettes par l'aspect commercial, économiques, réglementaire par des auteurs spécialistes de ces questions. La partie technique est abordée à la fois par l'aspect énergétique et celui des télécommunications et du comptage.
Download or read book Conflits des interpr tations dans la soci t de l information thique et politique de l environnement Trait des sciences et techniques de l information written by CHARDEL Pierre-Antoine and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La montée des préoccupations environnementales coïncide avec la facilité d'accès à des éléments de connaissance qui sont censés favoriser une perception plus aiguë des problématiques écologiques. Or, cela ne suffit pas à générer des comportements plus responsables envers la nature et les générations à venir. Il est nécessaire de reconsidérer la question environnementale à l'heure de nouvelles médiations informationnelles pour pouvoir composer un monde commun avec une pluralité de régimes d'attention. Les analyses transdisciplinaires qui composent cet ouvrage abordent ensemble les conflits interprétatifs relatifs aux problèmes environnementaux et les environnements médiatiques, dans toute leur hétérogénéité et leur nouveauté. L'analyse de l'exposition des subjectivités individuelles et collectives aux flux informationnels permet ici de mieux comprendre ce que serait une gouvernance réflexive. Conflits des interprétations dans la société de l'information permet de répondre adéquatement à une éthique et une politique de l'environnement.

Download or read book International Handbook of Primary Technology Education written by Clare Benson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This international handbook offers an in-depth study of the development of primary Technology (or Design and Technology) education worldwide. It is unique in that it focuses on the way in which the building blocks for this subject have been established– providing much needed research and information for those involved with secondary education and beyond to draw on. The inclusion of Technology education into primary curricula has gathered momentum for the last two decades as its importance and relevance to children’s lives has been realised by educators. This handbook offers a detailed insight into the many and varied ways in which countries have incorporated the subject into children’s primary school experiences, and issues that have arisen during its implementation. The authors all work in the field of primary technology education and have been actively involved in curriculum development and research in their own countries. The first part of the book is devoted to the introduction, the development and implementation of Technology education into the primary curricula of countries worldwide. Reasons for this movement, successes and barriers to development are discussed and speculation about the future of Technology education is reflected upon. The second part of the book relates to issues that have arisen as the subject has grown over the last twenty years, and consideration needs to be given to these if future successes are to be achieved. Classroom practice including designing and ICT, teacher education, enterprise, sustainability and indigenous technology are all reflected upon and support the notion of technology as a valued and valuable part of the primary curriculum This book should be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students, practitioners, researchers, curriculum developers, policy makers and professional development providers who are involved with, and have an interest in, primary technology education worldwide.

Download or read book ICT and Changing Mindsets in Education written by Kathryn Toure and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2008-07-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debate is no longer whether to use information and communication technologies (ICT) in education in Africa but how to do so, and how to ensure equitable access for teachers and learners, whether in urban or rural settings. This is a book about how Africans adopt and adapt ICT. It is also about how ICT shape African schools and classrooms. Why do we use ICT, or not? Do girls and boys use them in the same ways? How are teachers and students in primary and secondary schools in Africa using ICT in teaching and learning? How does the process transform relations among learners, educators and knowledge construction? This collection by 19 researchers from Africa, Europe, and North America, explores these questions from a pedagogical perspective and specific socio-cultural contexts. Many of the contributors draw on learning theory and survey data from 36 schools, 66000 students and 3000 teachers. The book is rich in empirical detail on the perceived importance and appropriation of ICT in the development of education in Africa. It critically examines the potential for creative use of ICT to question habits, change mindsets, and deepen practice. The contributions are in both English and French.

Book excerpt: L'histoire r~cente de l'audiovisuel en France ne peut ~tre rapport~e sans prendre en compte le changement de majorit~ poli tique de 1981. Sans doute les innovations techniques qui inter pellent aujourd'hui les diff~rents acteurs du champ audiovisuel ~taient-elles d~ja pr~sentes ou en germe d~s la fin de la d~cennie pr~c~dente. Mais la volont~ de l'Etat de faire de la communication audiovisuelle une des cl~s de voQte d'une nouvelle politique culturelle et ~conomique n'a cess~ d'entretenir une tension toute particuli~re dans un paysage qui n'avait que fort peu ~volu~ de 1974 a 1982, si l'on excepte la dissolution de l'ORTF et la cr~ation simultan~e de sept soci~t~s, chacune sp~cialis~e dans une des fonctions de la radio-diffusion (produc tion, programmation, diffusion-- l.

Download or read book Du document l utilisateur from Document to User written by Mathias Auclair and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'est un défi de taille, pour les archivistes, les bibliothécaires, les muséologues ou les documentalistes spécialisés, de conserver la mémoire et la trace du spectacle vivant, dans une société où les techniques évoluent sans cesse. Les techniques d'enregistrement audiovisuel et les supports pour conserver les images se sont modifiés. La mise en valeur de nouveaux médias est une gageure dans la conception des expositions. Enfin, les pratiques de recherche et l'essor conjoint des bases de données ont modifié la donne. Tels sont les nombreux sujets de réflexion qui se sont offerts aux membres de la SIBMAS (Société internationale des bibliothèques et musées des arts du spectacle) lors de son 25e Congrès, qui s'est tenu à Barcelone en 2004. En voici les Actes qui, par des approches diverses, tenteront d'éclairer ces interrogations. In a world where technologies are constantly evolving, it is a real challenge for archivists, librarians, museum curators and information professionals to keep track of and record living theatre. Audiovisual recording techniques are now cheap and accessible to many; electronic storage and dissemination of information and images has radically altered the relationship between the managers of collections and their potential users; new techniques have introduced new possibilities for interactivity in exhibitions and displays. These are just some of the issues addressed by the SIBMAS (International Association of Libraries and Museum of the Performing Arts) during its 25thAnnual Conference, held in Barcelona in 2004.
Download or read book La vie priv e l re du num rique written by REY Bénédicte and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-09-05 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La démocratisation de l'informatique, puis des usages de l'internet, de la téléphonie mobile, ou plus récemment d'autres objets communicants génèrent une profusion de traces numériques gardant en mémoire les actions des usagers. Approuvé par certains qui y voient l'opportunité d'améliorer la sécurité publique, la relation marchande ou encore leur propre confort quotidien, ce constat fait craindre à d'autres l'avènement d'une société de la surveillance érodant le respect de la vie privée. Cet ouvrage étudie la notion d'espace privé à l'ère du numérique. Il montre comment les changements technologiques, de services et d'usages redéfinissent l'acceptation traditionnelle de la vie privée fondée sur des normes, et comment, en complément du dispositif normatif existant, des modalités de régulation appropriables par les individus sont envisagées.
Download or read book Media Technology and Everyday Life in Europe written by Roger Silverstone and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of the daily experience of new information and communication technologies is highlighted by this timely volume. The book is based on work carried out in the European Media Technology and Everyday Life Network and is structured round a series of seven empirical case studies drawn from research within Europe. The application of this perspective draws attention not just to the significance of information and communication technologies for a mature understanding of the conduct of everyday life in contemporary Europe, but also for the significance of that understanding for the development of communication and information policy. The research makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the dynamics and evolution of a core dimension of European society as well as informing on-going and important debates on the nature of the relationship between the social and the technological in the information and communication arena.
