Doctor Educationis / As the world moves into a hyper-connected global society with near universal access to the internet, cybercrime has become a global challenge. The problems embedded in the issue of cybercrime are at least twofold. Firstly, the proliferation of cybercrime globally, and more specifically in South Africa, is outstripping the pace at which governments and lawmakers are able to respond efficiently. Secondly, where governments do manage to respond, there is a temptation to do so on the basis of a superficial understanding of the essence of cybercrime. There are many debates about the novelty of cybercrime in which participants have described it as “old wine in new skin”. This study takes the position that cybercrime is neither completely novel nor is it merely a virtual manifestation of the ordinary terrestrial crimes. The premise of this research is that cybercrime is an interesting and unique form of criminality that manifests itself in a number of challenging ways. These manifestations need to be considered independently and comprehensively if effective countermeasures are to be devised. This is not to say that every single offence has to be considered critically. That would be impracticable. It would suffice that certain types of cybercrimes be classified differently from other types, so as not to paint all with the same brush.

Temos aktualumas: Cerebrinis paralyžius (CP) – tai neprogresuojantis galvos smegenų pažeidimas, atsiradęs galvos smegenyse prenataliniu, perinataliniu, neonataliniu ar postnataliniu laikotarpiu. Cerebrinis paralyžius apibūdinamas kaip būklė, kuriai būdingas raumenų silpnumas, nekoordinuoti judesiai ir/arba kitokie motorinių funkcijų sutrikimai, sukelti dar nesubrendusių vaiko smegenų pažeidimo. Nuo CP kenčiančio vaiko judėjimas (gulėjimas, sėdėjimas, vartymasis, vaikščiojimas) yra sutrikęs. Vaiko raumenų tonusas gali būti sumažėjęs arba padidėjęs, susijęs su pusiausvyros ir koordinacijos problemomis. CP neretai lydi motorinės (judesių) kontrolės, raumenų jėgos, sensorinės (jutiminės) integracijos ir judesio planavimo sutrikimai, taip pat fizinis ir funkcinis pajėgumas. Fizinis pajėgumas bei aktyvumas yra pagrindinis organizmo augimo bei tobulėjimo stimuliatorius. Kiekviena judėjimo forma optimizuoja žmogaus ne tik motorikos, bet ir jo psichinės bei socialinės brandos vyksmą. Labai svarbu, kad vaikai turintys CP galėtų siekti fizinio ir funkcinio gebėjimo panašiai kaip ir įprastai besivystantys vaikai. Tyrimo dalyviai: 10 vaikų su CP. Probleminiai klausimai: koks vaikų su CP fizinis pajėgumas? Koks vaikų su CP funkcinis pajėgumas? Ar yra ryšys tarp vaikų su CP fizinio ir funkcinio pajėgumo? Probleminiai klausimai įgalino iškelti kryptingą hipotezę: tikėtina, kad vaikų su CP funkcinis pajėgumas priklauso nuo fizinio pajėgumo. Tyrimo objektas –fizinis ir funkcinis pajėgumas...

Muscle weakness, uncoordinated movements and/or other motor function disorders are the state of the immature brain sufferers of CP. Movements, such as lying, sitting, tumbling, hiking, are malfunctioning for those who has CP. Muscle tone of the child (that relates to balance and coordination problems) can be decreased or increased. CP often comes along with motor (movement) control, muscle strength, sensory integration, and movement planning problems as well as physical and functional capacity weakness. Physical capacity and activity are the main stimulus of the body whilst growing. Each and every movement optimizes not only motor movements, but also psychological and social pubescence. It is important that those who have CP would have an ability to achieve and aim same physical and functional ability exactly the same like those who progress and develop normally. Participants of the research: 10 children with CP. Questions to research: what is the physical capacity of those who have CP? What is the functional capacity? What is the connection amongst CP physical and functional capacity? Hypothesis made out of those questions: it is believed that CP functional capacity is depends on the physical capacity. Object of the research – physical and functional capacity. Aim of the research – find out the physical and functional capacity of... [to full text]

Denna studie handlar om mellanstadielärares syn på läxor och faktorer som påverkar läxanvändning. Läxor behandlades, inom ramen för denna studie, som något elever skulle göra utanför ordinarie undervisningstid. För att undersöka detta lyftes frågor om läxanvädning i förhållande till olika ämnen, synen på återkoppling av läxor, vilka resurser eleverna hade till förfogande gällande hjälp med läxor samt vad som påverkar icke-användandet av läxor. Detta undersöktes först genom en kvanitativ ansats i form av en enkät som besvarades av 68 respondenter. Vidare utfördes en kvalitativ ansats i form av fördjupade intervjuer med fyra respondenter. Resultatet har analyserats utifrån det sociokulturella perspektivet samt ramfaktorteorin. Redovisningen av resultaten sker i form av tabeller, diagram och citat. Studien visade att läxanvändning var vanligt förekommande på mellanstadiet, främst i matematik, svenska och engelska. Lärarna i studien ansåg att läxor gynnande elevers lärande. Vidare framkom det en medvetenhet hos lärare att elever hade olika resurser till förfogande när det kom till hjälp med läxor hemifrån. För att kompensera detta var lärarledd läxhjälp något som många skolor erbjöd. Det visades dock att olika faktorer påverkade både möjligheten att bedriva läxhjälp samt ifall eleverna utnyttjade den. För de lärare som inte gav ut läxor fanns åsikten om att skolarbete skulle utföras under skoltid. Det framkom att läxor inte längre ansågs som endast ett hemarbete då elever hade möjlighet till hjälp i skolan, efter skoltid, med lärare.

This thesis focuses on the design and the evaluation of the assistive technological solutions dedicated to the aging people. It is based on a framework which proposes a developmental approach of the aging subject. Our research is composed of three main objectives. The first objective is to improve the knowledge of the aging people (with or without cognitive impairments) problems of activity limitations and participation restrictions in society. The second objective is to preserve (or to develop) the empowerment of the persons with and without cognitive impairment, during the daily activities. Finally, the third objective is to enrich the subject model considered in the design. In this research, the design challenge exceeds the compensation and the slowing down of the individual state deterioration. It aims to preserve the residual individual capabilities and to propose the resources for an adequate fallback and the individual capabilities and empowerment development. Our work is based on a multidisciplinary, participatory and user centered design approach. We use ergonomics knowledge to improve the human-machines interactions, psychological knowledge to analyze acceptability and appropriation of the technical assistive devices, and technical knowledge to develop assistive technologies.

Face the change of globalization business, business opportunities far and wide. In contrast, corporate challengers, is no longer just a regional rival, but the strong competitors from different countries. Now, although the market is large, but also a substantial growth of the overall market supply, the supply quickly exceeded demand. In saturated markets, companies how to overcome or co-competitors to grab a larger market share, profit? For enterprises, existence of the business mission is to provide products, services, customers. Without customers, there is no demand, companies will not be able to survive. Therefore, in addition to providing standard, high quality products, we must be able to respond more quickly to customer needs, get the trust and improve customer satisfaction. Enterprise subject to different tangible and intangible constraints, How to play the best of ability, flexibility and rapid response to customer demand among the existing constraints? Improve operational efficiency, reduce inventory costs, efficient delivery and with the best service in the competition for maximum profit. This study base on many constraints in the continuous industry using thought tool of theory of constraints to break the bottleneck and response customer's demand. Through the ERP combined with ATP / CTP mechanism to improve the order promising process. Effectively improve service efficiency, shorten customer product delivery, while enhancing the overall supply chain efficiency, enhance corporate competitiveness and profitability.

The thesis is mainly a study on the Flexible Print Circuit which was producing manufactured. The research investigates how the FPC operates based on related product capacity data in the conjunction of back end MPS system data of producing scheduling database. Due to system and relative data collocation, it helps a salesman to make a better judgment on the outcome of an order before making promises to customers. In addition, this paper is looking into how applying the related production management method increases the number of the entire production and improves the efficiency on the production line. Then it studies how using this method can temporarily meet the needs of customers¡¦ big orders & cut-in orders before promising customers the date of delivery. Regarding manufacturing procedure of FPC, the purpose for increasing actual output is achieving the maximum production capability and the best arranging procedure. All information was given by different groups of employees from FPC industry, including its Sales Department, Production Management Department, Procurement Department and Supply Department; it also derives from the interviews with station managers and high level managers. With situation simulation and case simulation will be revised on current product line¡¦s output and try to bring up production operation model of FPC Industry. Finally, changing production management and station order to achieve its maximum production on FPC.

In this essay I reflect on what makes a good preschool teacher today. I discuss the importance of education, the importance of experience and practical knowledge, but also the importance of capacity for self-reflection and listening. I bring up examples from my workplace, where some think more about their limitations than on what and how much they actually can. Others are more satisfied by what they can and see less of their limits. Some are also lack of the will to see differently and to do changes. We also have different perceptions of the norms and values enshrined in our childhood. What we're from, our various social, cultural and an ethnic background also plays a role in the understanding and the interpretations we make in various situations. I discuss the teacher as a profession and the importance of education, that it is not enough only with experience, it needs to be supplemented with educational and theoretical knowledge to assess, identify, weigh and deliberate well to act as needed in the present moment. Teacher is about to be. Being a good teacher in practice, have practical knowledge. I also discuss the importance of self-reflection. Without the mirror it is only a mirror image without a reflective approach. The good teacher, the more I think, the more I realize that there is no simple answer.

The theoretical part of the paper discusses the experience of educating extremely capable children in Lithuania and abroad, it also analyses the aspects of capable children‘s perception. In the research section of the paper the artistic – creative and perceptive – sociocultural competences of an 5 – 7 year old child are analysed. The study of the sources of referente has revealed that a highly capable child is likely to display the following qualities: curiousity, liveliness, keenness for exploration, creativity and sensitivity for beauty. The results of the research support the hypothesis that capable children have notable pecularities of perceptive – sociocultural competence: they tend to be intenested in technologies, they are originali n their way of thinking, have broad interests and are especialy good in logical thinking; they also quickly understand new information and use it skillfully.

Através dos referenciais da teoria histórico-cultural e da teoria da atividade, mais especificamente dos conceitos de parceiro mais capaz e de atividade, analisamos os dados constituídos em entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas com os sujeitos de pesquisa. Os conceitos mencionados permitiram, sob o método da análise textual discursiva, analisar as características e a forma da atuação dos estudantes com os livros-texto de física, possibilitando-nos responder às seguintes questões de pesquisa: qual o papel dos livros-texto na relação de ensino e aprendizagem no curso de licenciatura em física, a partir do ponto de vista de docentes e discentes? O que os livros-texto representam, no que tange à efetivação da relação de ensino e aprendizagem, para professores e alunos e de que forma esses sujeitos compreendem o uso que fazem desses materiais? Das análises das entrevistas concluímos que apesar da caracterização dos livros-texto como parceiro mais capaz por docentes e discentes, estes últimos acabam por desempenhar, em alguns momentos do processo formativo, ações alienadas com os livros devido às exigências e cobranças existentes no contexto das disciplinas, o que desfavorece a apropriação do conhecimento. Por isso, faz-se necessária a reflexão crítica dos docentes acerca da condução das disciplinas e da orientação da atuação dos discentes com os livros-texto, para uma possível tomada de decisão em resposta às dificuldades encontradas pelos discentes no decorrer do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. / This thesis is the study of the use of textbooks by students and professors of a undergraduate degree in physics from a Brazilian public university. Through the knowledge of historical-cultural theory and activity theory, more specifically of the concepts of more capable partner and activity, we analyze the data constituted in semi-structured interviews with the subjects of search. The concepts mentioned allowed, under the method of discursive textual analysis, to analyze the characteristics and the form of interaction between students and textbooks, enabling us to answer the following research questions: what is the role of the textbooks in the teaching and learning in the degree course in physics, according to the point of view of professors and students? What do the textbooks represent, regarding the effectiveness of the teaching and learning relationship, for professors and students and how do these subjects understand their use of these materials? From the analysis of the interviews we conclude that despite the characterization of textbooks as a more capable partner for professors and students, the latter end up performing, at some point in the formative process, actions alienated with the books due to demands and charges existing in the context of the disciplines, which detracts from the students appropriation of knowledge. For this reason, the critical reflection of the professors about the conduct of the college subjects and the orientation of the students’ performance with the textbooks is necessary, for a possible decision in response to the difficulties encountered by the students during the teaching and learning process.

Yes / Communities play an important role in supporting people living with affected by dementia. The aim of this study was to explore what could be changed in the local community to enable those with dementia to live well. People with dementia and carers taking part in the IDEAL programme responded to open-ended questions. Responses from 1,172 people with dementia and 702 caregivers were analysed using thematic analysis. Four themes were identified: raising awareness, improving access to support services, providing social events and activities, and supporting people to engage in the community. These highlight the role of individuals, resources and the environment in supporting those with dementia. Longer-term investment in services is needed to underpin dementia-inclusive communities. / The IDEAL study was funded jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) through grant ES/L001853/2. The IDEAL-2 study’ is funded by Alzheimer’s Society, grant number 348, AS-PR2-16-001. The support of ESRC, NIHR and Alzheimer’s Society is gratefully acknowledged.
