The Influence of Media Consultation Habits on Young Travelers’ Risk Perception : Exploring Information Seeking Practices in TourismPianigiani, Ivan, Holm, Peter January 2024 (has links)
The thesis investigates the influence of media consultation habits as the developers of risk perceptions among young travelers. It deals with the information-seeking practices of individuals aged 18 to 29 by scrutinizing the extent to which certain media channels are sought out to inform themselves about travel-related risks. By employing a quantitative research approach and collecting data through a web-based questionnaire, the study investigates the role of various information channels by measuring the degree to which they are sought out by the respondents. The findings reveal that legacy media is the most trusted source for risk information among young travelers, surpassing social media and other channels. This unexpected result highlights the significant role of traditional media in shaping risk perceptions despite the prevalence of digital platforms. The study's conclusions are intended to serve tourism professionals and destination managers seeking to enhance communication strategies and manage tourists' risk perceptions effectively.

Teaching religious education in Zambian multireligious secondary schoolsChizelu, John Mabaya 30 November 2006 (has links)
This study focuses on the teaching of RE in Zambian multireligious secondary schools. The problem faced in secondary schools is that currently RE is being taught with a single religious approach by the RE teachers instead of using a multireligious perspective as directed by the Ministry of Education (MoE).
The aim of this study, therefore, was to find out why RE teachers tend to be reluctant to respond to the MoE directive in applying a multireligious approach to the subject. In order to achieve this aim, an empirical investigation was necessary. A quantitative and qualitative survey through self-administered questionnaires and in-depth interviews were undertaken by the 194 teachers teaching RE in selected secondary schools in the Copperbelt Province.
The research reveals that the RE teachers' reluctance to respond to the Ministry's directive is a result of their different perceptions which are mostly influenced by their religious affiliations and the syllabuses they use. For example, the majority of the RE teachers involved in the teaching of RE in secondary schools are Christians, therefore, they are reluctant to teach RE that also includes non-Christian religions because they feel it would compromise their consciences and their own faiths. As a result, they prefer to teach the subject from a Christian standpoint. This approach differs from the MoE directive to teach RE from a multireligious perspective.
In the light of the different perceptions concerning the problem of teaching RE in Zambian multireligious secondary schools, the following recommendations have been made: (i) Since the Zambian secondary schools have become multireligious, RE teaching should take a multireligious perspective if it is to be relevant to the needs of pupils of diverse religious backgrounds; (ii) The current RE syllabuses (2044 and 2046) require a critical evaluation and revision in order to ensure that they adapt to a multireligious tradition.
Finally, the results of this study concludes that the teaching of RE should be firmly placed in an educational context by making no assumptions or preconditions from the personal commitment of RE teachers. The role of RE teachers is that of educators. / Educational Studies / D.Ed. (Didactics)

The relationship between leadership styles and organisational climateCloete, Madelein 04 1900 (has links)
This study explored the relationship between leadership styles and organisational
climate by means of quantitative research. Data from an organisational climate
survey was used during the analysis. The results indicate that there was a positive
correlation (0,749 at the 0,01 level) between leadership styles and organisational
climate, thus supporting the research hypothesis. A standard multiple regression
analysis was conducted and three leadership styles were found to predict 55,6% of
the variance in organisational climate. The Authoritative leadership style made the
largest unique contribution to the variance in organisational climate. The interaction
between biographical and organisational variables and leadership styles and
organisational climate was studied by means of t-tests and ANOVAs. Although
statistically significant differences were found, these terms were of little practical
significance and the effect sizes were generally small. The study concludes with
recommendations for Industrial and Organisational Psychology practices and further
research. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)

Organisational change management in South Africa : the development of a change framework and scorecard within a mergers and aquisitions environmentGlensor, Michael Colin 11 1900 (has links)
Change in today’s business environment may be seen as inevitable however in the
absence of a generic and endemic Change Framework for Managing and Leading
Change; South African businesses face a difficult task of surviving into the future unless
they are able to find an Organisational Change Management Approach that will assist
them in navigating the Organisational Change Landscape for the 21st Century.
This study provides an exploratory approach to understanding the nature of
Organisational Change Management in South Africa, by exploring the following key
concepts:
(1) An understanding of the nature of Organisational Change Management in South
Africa
(2) The Critical Success Factors needed for Organisational Change Management to
succeed in South Africa
(3) The provision of a practical Organisational Change Management Framework and
Scorecard for the measurement of Organisational Change Management processes
and initiatives
(4) Recommendations towards a Organisational Change Management Scorecard
The study which is largely qualitative in nature makes use of a multiple case study design
methodology for the collection of empirical evidence as well as quantitative research data
from a survey questionnaire to support the underlying constructs and research questions
posed within the study. The use of data and methodological triangulation, namely
research interviews, survey data, company and archival documentation as well as focus
group discussion points has provided the research study with the necessary validity and
reliability to support research results, findings and recommendations.This information should be utilized by Change Practitioners practicing organisational
change within a rapidly transforming environment, where Mergers and Acquisitions are
major force for change as it would help to provide the necessary change framework and
change scorecard for the management and measurement of organisational change
interventions.
This study also highlights the Critical Success Factors for change by focusing on the
Emotional side (Low impact) and Change Imperatives / Prerequisites (High impact) for
the management of organisational change. In addition, the study also provides a first view
of some change performance measures in the form of a Change Scorecard, which can be
used to assess the overall impact of the current change intervention being implemented. / Graduate School for Business Leadership / DBL

The relationship between leadership and organisational climate: employees at an FMCG organisation in South AfricaEustace, Angela 09 1900 (has links)
The 21st century has posed challenges and provided opportunities for organisations, and although a large body of research exists on both leadership and organisational climate, these two concepts have become a matter of urgency in South African organisations. The dynamics in the organisation have a direct effect on the people the organisation serves and business performance.
The aim of this research was to explore the relationship between leadership and organisational climate in a South African fast-moving consumable goods (FMCG) organisation. There are few research studies that focus on leadership and organisational climate in the South African context and this study builds on limited existing knowledge. Using a descriptive, cross-sectional field survey approach, a sample of 896 participants employed at one organisation was surveyed. Explanatory factor analysis and the structural equation modelling (SEM) multivariate analysis technique revealed a new set of organisational dimensions and confirmed the relationship between leadership and organisational climate and organisational climate and its various dimensions.
The findings emphasise the importance of certain generic and specific leadership practices in creating the desired organisational climate in the South African context. This study contributes to knowledge on the relationship between leadership and organisational climate in the South African context. / Psychology / M. Com. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)

Caracterização e análise de interações em fóruns de discussão de professores de ciências em formação continuada on-line / Characterization and analysis of interactions of science teachers in discussion forums in an online in-service teacher education coursePucinelli, Ricardo Henrique 20 April 2018 (has links)
Esta pesquisa analisou o 2º oferecimento (2011-2012) do curso on-line de Especialização em Ensino de Ciências (EEC), realizado pela Faculdade de Educação da Universidade de São Paulo (FEUSP), em parceria com a Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo (SEE-SP), intitulado Rede São Paulo de Formação Docente (REDEFOR). Nesta pesquisa, verificou-se como interagem os participantes de fóruns de discussão em um Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem (AVA) para formação continuada de professores. Mais especificamente, conciliaram-se técnicas de análise qualitativa e quantitativa para interpretar a interação dos participantes desses fóruns. Inicialmente, empregaram-se análises estatísticas para descrever os principais conjuntos de dados: cada uma das disciplinas e seus respectivos oferecimentos de fóruns de discussão; número de participantes por fórum de discussão; número de mensagens por fórum de discussão. A partir dos estudos de estatística descritiva, foram selecionados os principais casos para estudos de Análise de Redes Sociais (ARS) que, por sua vez, foi empregada para mapear e depois caracterizar as redes de interações dos fóruns de discussão por meio da: a) verificação da frequência e das tipologias de interações que se estabeleceram entre os professores-cursistas com os seus respectivos pares e desses com os seus tutores; b) obtenção de indicadores sociométricos para caracterização dos participantes dos grupos estudados. Em decorrência do grande volume de análises e de informações, optou-se por detalhar as centralidades entre os integrantes de um grupo de discussão ao longo da disciplina EC08 Vida e Educação em Ciências. Finalmente, a abordagem qualitativa promoveu as análises das interações discursivas nos debates realizados na disciplina EC08 Vida e Educação em Ciências por meio da aplicação do quadro analítico Rainbow. O quadro analítico Rainbow demonstrou ser eficaz para a obtenção e exemplificação das relações dialógicas estabelecidas entre as professoras-cursistas do Grupo 9B durante os debates em três fóruns de discussão da EC08 vida e Educação em Ciências. Também foi possível constatar que, conforme as participantes ampliavam a sua aderência na realização da tarefa para alcançar o objetivo pedagógico estabelecido pelas professoras-autoras, mais mensagens foram classificadas entre as categorias de cunho argumentativo (5-7), em detrimento das outras categorias que apresentam um caráter de cunho social (2 -3). No último fórum de discussão (Semana #5), houve um maior pronunciamento da tutora em relação à orientação da tarefa (4), juntamente com outras duas professoras-cursistas (IMF e CASZ), possibilitando aferir que, quando há um engajamento da tutoria na atividade, há uma tendência de a discussão focar nas últimas categorias (5-7). Finalmente, foi possível constatar que abordagem mista (ora quantitativa ora qualitativa) foi útil para categorizar e entender por que o grupo 9B, considerado como um outlier, se destacou dos outros grupos em publicações de mensagens. / This research analyzed the 2nd offer (2011-2012) of the Specialization in Science Teaching Course (SST), conducted by the Faculty of Education of the University of São Paulo (FEUSP), in partnership with the Department Education of the State of São Paulo (DE-SP), entitled Rede São Paulo de Formação Docente (REDEFOR). In this research, we verified how the participants interact in a discussion forum in a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) for in-service teachers. More specifically, techniques of qualitative and quantitative analysis were employed to interpret the interaction of the participants in these forums. Initially, statistical descriptive analyzes were used to describe the main data sets: each of the disciplines and their respective offerings of discussion forums; number of participants per discussion forum; number of messages per discussion forum. From the descriptive analyzes, we selected the main cases for Social Network Analysis (SNA), which, in turn, were concerned with mapping and then characterizing the interaction networks of the discussion forums by: a) verifying the frequency and the typologies of interactions that have been established between the teacher-trainees with their respective peers and those with their tutors; b) obtaining sociometric indicators to characterize the participants of the selected groups. Due to the large volume of analysis and information, it was decided to detail the centralities among the members of a discussion group along the course ST08 - Life and Education in Sciences. Finally, the qualitative approach promoted the analysis of the discursive interactions in the debates carried out in the discipline ST08 - Life and Education in Sciences through the application of the framework Rainbow. The framework Rainbow proved to be effective in obtaining and exemplifying the dialogical relations established between the participants in group 9B during the debates in three discussion forums of ST08 - Life and Science Education. It was also possible to verify that, as the participants broadened their adherence in the accomplishment of the task to reach the pedagogical goal established by the teachers, more messages were classified among the argumentative categories (5-7), to the detriment of the other categories that have a social character (2-3). In the last discussion forum (Week # 5), there was a greater pronouncement by the tutor regarding the orientation of the task (4), together with two other participants (IMF and CASZ), making it possible to ascertain that when there is an engagement of mentoring in activity, there is a tendency for the discussion to focus on the latter categories (5-7). Finally, it was possible to verify that a mixed approach (sometimes quantitative or qualitative) was useful to categorize and understand why group 9B, considered as an outlier, stood out from the other groups in message publications.
