Academic literature on the topic 'School Manager Coordinator'

Traditionally management schools of thought that emphasize certain types of work structures usually appear earlier than information technologies (IT) geared at supporting those work structures. This situation has undoubtedly changed recently, arguably around the mid-1990s, with the explosion in the commercial use of the Internet and particularly the Web. This calls for the development of a generic framework that ties together relevant management ideas that help organizations strategically and operationally align themselves with new Web-based IT. Our goal with this chapter is to provide some basic elements that can be used by managers and researchers as a starting point to develop this generic framework. As such, we focus on a particular set of activities associated with team coordination and communication in production and service delivery business processes through the Internet and the Web.

Indonesia is the largest Muslim majority country in the world, representing 13% of the global Muslim population. The high number of Islamic boarding schools, or pesantren, in Indonesia and the value of conventional transactions that occur among them present a big economic opportunity. However, this opportunity is not well-documented, captured, or maintained. The need to digitalize transaction processes between pesantren is of high importance. The government, which in this case is represented by the Central Bank, has tried to form an e-commerce platform for pesantren markets through one particular pesantren considered the most mature and prepared to coordinate and manage such a platform. However, the characteristics of users from pesantren are very unique with a strong culture among them. Thus, the building of an e-commerce platform for this specific market needs to be carried out carefully. By using qualitative and quantitative methods, this research attempts to design the most appropiate e-commerce platform for this Islamic market.

The distributed Web-based multi-document summarization system is conceived to enrich semantically Geographic Databases (GDB) (Faïz, 1999; Scholl et al., 1996). In fact, in a traditional database, for instance, a city is described by its alphanumeric features: name, population count, and so forth; however, in a GDB, it is further described by spatial attributes which indicate its position (coordinates) in the space and its shape (point, line, polygon, etc.). Although the use of this myriad of information (alphanumeric and spatial data), the GDB suffers from the lack of an exhaustive set of information describing in a quasi-complete way the entities handled by it (Faïz, 2001). Hence, Geographic Information System (GIS) is not able to provide the end-user with information not fed into the GDB and that is not inherent to the application for which the GIS is designed (Bâazaoui, Faïz & Ben Ghezala, 2001, 2003; Faïz, Abbassi & Boursier, 1998). For instance, given a map displayed on the screen, it is not possible to get economic or historical information about cities for a given country whenever the GIS is concerned only with administrative boundaries. Having this idea in mind, our intention is to profit from the huge mass of information available online to enrich semantically a GDB. To fulfill this purpose and to manage the great amount of documents retrieved from the Web in a quick and convenient fashion, we adopted the Text Mining techniques (Tan 1999; Weiss, Apte & Damerau, 1999) and more precisely the summarization. Indeed, with the fast growth in the amount of textual information available online and the multitude of documents reporting almost the same thing, there is clearly a strong need for automatic summarization that copes with not only one document at one time but a set of topically similar ones.

With greater autonomy schools require assertive leadership in school management. Thus, it is crucial to understand the intermediate manager’s role in guiding a curriculum department, seeking to know how to validate their skills within the team. The department is shown functional, organized and communicative. Coordinator is spokesperson, democratic manager and performs duties within a framework of collaboration and valorisation, with joint decision and validation. Leadership is democratic and supervision relies on support for teachers and the figure of case manager emerges. Relevant constraints

Abstract Collaborative engineering is knowledge work in the sense that engineers and managers must apply their knowledge to solve their problems and proceed with their work. The knowledge that is applied spans from the basic knowledge they learned from schools, application knowledge acquired from the industry, and experiential knowledge obtained from years of working experience. Most of the current research on collaborative engineering support focuses on providing communication and data sharing support for effective coordination. We argue that in order to increase the productivity of current p
