Abstract:

The primary purpose of this study was to examine the strength of the relationship between childhood playfulness and adult playfulness. The relationship between adult playfulness and adult creativity was also examined along with the relationship between child playfulness and adult creativity. Exploratory interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of individuals to provide insight into subjectsâ perceptions of their own playfulness as well as life experiences they perceived to be related to stability or change in their own playfulness. Specifically, the researcher interviewed one subjec

Abstract:

Exploration and discovery are core components of play. For children with autism, whose needs are complex and diverse, the potential that technology affords for developmentally appropriate play is under researched. Many software programmes focus on operational routines and fail to maximise on the capricious, idiosyncratic and emergent fun that can evolve when children are relaxed and able to freely discover their interests. There are very few studies that reveal how children with autism benefit, in terms of their confidence and self esteem, when technology is utilised simply as a trigger for pl

Abstract:

The use of tablet computers have increased significantly in numerous parts of society during recent years, and the educational sector is no exception. Use of games in educational situations has intrigued scholars of different disciplines, presenting both favouring and opposing opinions. Whilst the educational effectiveness of the game media is discussed, research done in the area of cognitive development, psychology and pedagogy argue for the importance of play and the positive effects it entails on education and learning.

Abstract:

<p> The ethnographic study presented here documents emergent behaviors that arose when two multimodal composing and production tools - Collabosphere and Tumblr — were used in three different college courses (Introductory Psychology, Education 1B, and College Writing 101).

Abstract:

<p> Despite growth in the elementary classroom, the level of technology adoption by some teachers falls short of levels sought by educational stakeholders. To address this disparity, the purpose of this correlational study was to identify if, and to what extent, a correlation exists between elementary teachers’ adult playfulness factor levels and their attitude toward technology in the teaching-learning process. The theoretical lenses of the technology acceptance model and the five-factor model of personality guided the research. A convenience sample of 106 teachers was drawn from Califo

Abstract:

Playing Nine to Five is a project that aims to raise awareness of the presence of objects in everyday situations. We often surround ourselves with objects. Some of them we touch and use everyday, and some of them we barely notice until they stop working. But are we always aware of our relations with them, or have we slightly taken them for granted? While our life quality has moved forward and our living pace has sped up, we tend to lose more of our attentions and sensitivities to things around us.

碩士<br>國立高雄應用科技大學<br>人力資源發展系<br>98<br>Communication is not only the essential skill for people to interact with each other but also the basic ability which employees should have in workplace. Furthermore, it is argued that problem-solving skill is indispensable for employees. Therefore, organizations nowadays evaluate staff members with high standards in communication and problem-solving skill. On the other hand, some scholars suggest that workers with higher playfulness exchange ideas with colleagues more easily, and they also are more willing to create and solve problems, which eventually ben

The sequelae of paediatric traumatic brain injury have been well documented in the literature, and include permanent and pervasive impairments of varying severity that impact cognitive, physical, language, social and behavioural functioning, and the ability to participate in home and school activities. While children with similar disabilities have been identified as having play deficits, the impact of traumatic brain injury on play, and in particular, a child's playfulness and ability to approach play, have not yet been investigated. Play is thought to be important as it contributes to meaning

Abstract:

There is an emerging body of literature about older women and play, often focused on social groupings (e.g., Red Hats Society, Raging Grannies). This study aimed to contribute to this body of literature by exploring the meaning, experience, and place of play and playfulness in the day-to-day lives of older women. Interpreting older women’s play as a phenomenologist informed by the feminist gerontology literature, I explored, described, and interpreted play using the voices, words, lived experiences, and artful reflections of four focus groups comprised of nineteen women between the ages of 6

Abstract:

Differences between females and males in computer use have long been a concern. Over the past twenty years, the accessibility gap has closed and women’s use of the technology has equaled and in some cases surpassed men’s computer use. However, differences in patterns of use still remain. This study looked at underlying factors that may be involved in maintaining differences in use. Specifically, this study focused on differences in gender and gender role personality traits as they relate to microcomputer playfulness. Gender role personality traits are defined as the acceptance of stereotypic g
