Abstract:
Considering the evolution of the semantic wiki engine on-based platforms, two main approaches could be distinguished: Ontologies for Wikis (OfW) and Wikis for Ontologies (WfO). OfW vision requires the existing ontologies to be imported. Most of them use the Resource Description Framework (RDF-based) systems in conjunction with the standard Structured Query Language (SQL) database to manage and query semantic data. But, relational database is not an ideal type of storage for semantic data. A more natural data model for Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) is RDF, a data format that organizes information in graphs rather than in fixed database tables. This paper presents an ontology on-based architecture, which aims to implement this idea. The Architecture mainly includes three-layered functional architecture: Web User Interface Layer, Semantic Layer, and Persistence Layer.

Abstract:
Balancing the social, economic and environmental priorities for public health is at the core of the United Nations (UN) approaches to sustainable development, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The four dimensions of sustainable diets are often presented as health, society, economics, and the environment. Although sustainable diet research has focused on health and the environment, the social and economic dimensions of sustainable diets and food systems should not be forgotten. Some research priorities and sociocultural indicators for sustainable healthy diets and food systems are outlined in this report. The present goal is to improve integration of the social dimension into research on food and nutrition security.

Abstract:
It is well known that theatre semiotics follows the metamorphoses of theories of semiotics in general and, like them, draws on Charles Peirce and American pragmatism, Saussurean linguistics and the linguistics of the Prague Circle, Russian formalism and French structuralism. These currents converge in the theatre semiotics of the 70s, producing a methodology that is highly scientist, technical, self-reflexive and abstract. This type of theatre semiotics may no longer be an up-markettopic, nor is it stone-dead. Its fundamental principle of ‘abstract objectivism’, as Bakhtin/Voloshinov describe it, survives despite the greater flexibility provided by its attention to such areas as reception theory and theories of cultural systems. Its inclusion of reception theory acknowledged of the fact that spectators exist in the construction of semiosis. Ideas concerning cultural systems and, thus, primarily those concerning codes were used to indicate the importance of cultural contexts in the processes of signification.

Abstract:
Considers validity and productivity of applying the fractal analysis to study various sociocultural objects. The author analyses related works and shows that in principle, it is possible to achieve practically significant results to make prognosis concerning dynamics of cultural processes including evolution of sociocultural systems. The method demands using relatively difficult mathematical procedures that are ambiguous when applied to the analysis of sociocultural objects and needs a significant volume of initial data thus imposing strict responsibilities on researcher.

Abstract:
This research investigates the role of sociocultural dimensions in increasing national innovative capacity. While literature focuses on other determinants of innovation output, such as the stock of knowledge and resources dedicated to R&D, dimensions of a cultural nature have yet to be adequately addressed. The investigation examines sociocultural factors in natural resource-rich countries where the urgency to survive is not the primary driver in achieving economic growth. Oil-rich GCC countries, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, have made significant investment in education and information and communications technology to develop their economies. The primary focus in developing the economies has shifted to increasing innovative capacity. This study attempts to determine other factors that need to be in place to achieve increased innovative capacity as measured by new-to-the world knowledge and innovation. Endogenous growth theory and national innovation systems provide the theoretical base for the investigation. A deductive approach will be used to produce hypotheses that will be tested quantitatively, using existing indicators for sociocultural dimensions. Five sociocultural dimensions were found to be significant in innovative capacity when tested in leading innovator countries (Germany, Japan, Sweden, Switzerland, United States), emerging innovator countries (Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Korea), and GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) as a whole. However, three of the dimensions, Openness to Outside Influences, and Adaptability were unexpectedly inversely proportional to innovative capacity. More precise measurements and further research are required.

Abstract:
A existência de opiniões distintas em uma sociedade na qual indivíduos interagem constantemente atraiu o interesse de cientistas sociais e físicos estatísticos. Em 1997, Robert Axelrod propôs um modelo vetorial para o estudo da formação de domínios culturais diferentes em uma rede de agentes interagentes. Nesse modelo, os agentes são representados por um vetor de F componentes em que cada componente assume um dentre Q estados inteiros. O modelo apresenta uma transição de um estado monocultural (ordenado) para um estado multicultural (desordenado) que tem sido estudada na literatura através de parâmetros de ordem tais como o tamanho relativo do maior domínio cultural (S) e a fração de domínios culturais diferentes (g). Desde então, propriedades como robustez à introdução de ruídos, à variação de topologia e à introdução de campos local, global e externo foram investigadas. Nosso trabalho está organizado em três partes principais. Na primeira, apresentamos a proposta de novas medidas baseadas no conceito de atividade por agente para o estudo do modelo de Axelrod na rede quadrada. Mostramos que a variância da atividade do sistema (A) pode ser usada para indicar os pontos de transição e que sua distribuição de frequência pode indicar a ordem da transição. Na segunda, estimamos o diagrama de fases no plano (F,Q) e comparamos resultados obtidos em redes com condição de contorno aberta e fechada. Para isso, utilizamos as susceptibilidades dos parâmetros de ordem S e A para determinar os valores críticos Qc(F) para alguns valores de F. Na terceira, analisamos a formação de domínios culturais com a introdução de agentes persistentes para modelar efeitos de mídia interna. Nossos resultados revelam uma dependência de Qc com a probabilidade de ocupação p de agentes persistentes que nos permite obter o diagrama de fases no plano (p,Q). Interpretamos a linha crítica como resultado da competição de duas forças opostas (denominadas efeito de barreira e efeito de ligação) causadas por agentes não-persistentes que aderem aos persistentes.
The existence of different opinions in a society where individuals constantly interact has attracted the interest of social scientists and statistical physicists. In 1997, Robert Axelrod proposed a vectorial model to study the formation of cultural domains in a network of interacting agents. In this model, the agents are represented by a F components vector in which one from Q integer states is assigned to each component. The model presents a transition from a monocultural state (ordered) to a multicultural one (disordered) that has been studied by using order parameters such as the relative size of the biggest cultural domain (S) and the fraction of different domains (g). Since then, some properties as the robustness to the introduction of noise, to the variation of topology and to the introduction of local, global and external fields were studied. Our work is organized in three main parts. In the first part we present the proposal of new measurements based on the concept of activity per agent to study the Axelrod\'s model in a square lattice. We show the variance of system\'s activity (A) can be used to indicate the transition points and that the system\'s activity frequency distribution can be used to indicate the order of the transition. In the second part we estimate the phase diagram in the (F,Q) plane and compare the results obtained from simulations performed in lattices with open and closed boundary conditions. For this purpose, we use the susceptibility of order parameters S and A to determine the critical values Qc(F) for some values of F. In the third part we analyze the formation of cultural domains by introducing persistent agents to model effects of internal media. Our results reveal a dependence of Qc on the occupation probability p of persistent agents that allows us to obtain the phase diagram in the (p,Q) plane. We interpret the critical locus as a result of two opposite forces (called barrier effect and bonding effect) caused by non-persistent agents which adhere the persistent ones.

Abstract:
The aim of the given study is to investigate the impact of the legal as well as the sociocultural systems of Iran on the secondary victimization of rape victims in the country. As a theoretical background of the study, two feminist theories, Feminist criminology and Radical Feminist, will be used. By the help of these theories the influences of patriarchy on secondary victimization of rape victims in Iran will be explained. While case study is used to frame the design of the study, qualitative content analysis will also be used to collect the needed data through analyzing different sources and materials. The findings show that the lack of comprehensive laws regarding rape crime in Iran and the way service providers view and perceive rape victims have led to re-victimization of rape victims. Moreover, analyzing the sociocultural system of the country demonstrated that the prevalence of rape myths and gender inequality in the society have also contributed to re-victimization of such victims. The author believes that establishing new comprehensive laws regarding rape crime and changing the service providers and people’s attitudes regarding rape crime and rape victims through education are the most appropriate solutions for this problem.

A pesquisa em educação mediada por computador sugere que a tecnologia tem um grande potencial para o ensino-aprendizagem de línguas dentro de uma perspectiva colaborativa, já que potencializa o uso da língua e da tecnologia como fatores de mediação de construção e compartilhamento do conhecimento. Nesse contexto, uma educação de línguas de qualidade deve explorar as potencialidades das ferramentas digitais na promoção da interação social, em que os aprendizes são desafiados a mobilizar e transformar seus recursos linguísticos para construir conhecimento sobre a língua enquanto se esforçam para fazer sentido na língua estrangeira (LE). Assim, esta pesquisa caracteriza-se por ser um estudo de caso que visa investigar a produção de estudantes de graduação em Letras em tarefas colaborativas em inglês como LE em ambiente virtual, focando a mediação no processo de aprendizagem. A fundamentação teórica utilizada consiste de princípios da teoria sociocultural vygotskiana, a teoria dos sistemas complexos, de estudos na área de informática na educação e a pesquisa na aquisição de segunda língua e língua estrangeira. Os participantes dessa pesquisa foram alunos de graduação de Letras/Inglês de uma universidade particular do sul do Brasil. A geração de dados ocorreu em três encontros no laboratório de informática realizados para complementar a disciplina de Inglês 3 com uma sequência de tarefas colaborativas de produção oral através de recursos multimídia e ferramentas digitais online. O espaço virtual utilizado foi o wiki online PBworks por permitir a interação colaborativa e o compartilhamento da produção entre todos seus usuários. As tarefas colaborativas envolveram discussões de vídeos curtos do Youtube em inglês como LE pelos aprendizes a partir de questões de interpretação através da ferramenta de conversa eletrônica Skype. Após cada tarefa, as duplas foram chamadas a ouvir a sua gravação e refletir sobre a sua produção no Skype, a tarefa e a sua aprendizagem, processo colaborativo que foi também gravado. Ainda, no final dos três encontros, os aprendizes responderam a um questionário que procurou investigar as suas percepções sobre as tarefas realizadas e a experiência de uso da tecnologia na aprendizagem da LE. A análise dos dados focou cinco fatores de mediação da aprendizagem de LE, quais sejam, a colaboração, o andaimento, a metafala, a tarefa e a tecnologia. Os resultados deste estudo apontam para os benefícios de tarefas colaborativas apoiadas pela tecnologia para a aprendizagem de inglês como LE ao promover um ambiente de intensa exploração, aplicação e modificação de língua apoiadas pela construção conjunta de conhecimento a partir do foco no erro como oportunidade de aprimoramento da produção. Além disso, observou-se que o uso da tecnologia para aprendizagem de línguas possibilitou que os estudantes visualizassem as possibilidades pedagógicas das ferramentas e recursos para a sua futura prática docente. Finalmente, esta pesquisa pretende prover dados e discussão para a melhoria da pesquisa em Linguística Aplicada, Aquisição de Segunda Língua e Língua Estrangeira e Aprendizagem de Línguas Mediada por Computador, somando-se a estudos sobre tarefas colaborativas sob a perspectiva da teoria sociocultural e da complexidade.
Research on computer-mediated education suggests that technology has a great potential for the teaching and learning of languages from a collaborative perspective, since it enhances the use of language and multimedia as mediational means of construction and sharing of knowledge. Within this context, a quality language education should exploit digital tools’ potentialities in fostering social interaction, in which the learners are challenged to mobilize and transform their linguistic resources to build knowledge about language while they struggle to make meaning in the foreign language. Thus, this research is a case study that aims to investigate the production of undergraduate students in collaborative tasks in English as a foreign language (EFL) in a virtual environment, focusing on the mediation in the learning process. The theoretical framework used in this study consists of vygotskian sociocultural theory principles of learning, complex systems theory, studies in the area of computers in education, and second language and foreign language acquisition reserch. Participants in this study were undergraduate students of Languages/English from a private university in southern Brazil. The data generation was carried out during three classes in the computer lab designed to complement the discipline of English 3 with a series of oral production collaborative tasks through online multimedia resources and digital tools. For the virtual space it was used PBworks wiki as it enables collaborative interaction and sharing of production among all its users. The collaborative tasks envolved EFL chat discussions of Youtube short videos by the learners in pairs based on comprehension questions over Skype. After each task, the dyads were asked to listen to their recordings and reflect on Skype upon their production, the task, and their learning, a collaborative process that was recorded too. Still, in the end of the three classes students answered a questionnaire designed to investigate their perception on the tasks done and the whole experience of using technology to learn a FL. Data analysis focused on five mediational factors of EFL learning, i. e. collaboration, scaffolding, metatalk, task and technology. The results of the present research point to the benefits of collaborative tasks for EFL learning as they fostered an environment of intense exploration, application and modification of language supported by the joint construction of knowledge from focus on error as an opportunity for production improvement. Moreover, it was observed that the use of technology for language learning allowed students to visualize the educational possibilities of tools and resources used for their future teaching practice. Finally, this research intends to provide data and discussion for the improvement of research in Applied Linguistics, Second and Foreign Language Acquisition and Computer-Mediated Language Learning, adding to studies on collaborative tasks from the perspectives of sociocultural and complex systems theory.

Abstract:
Technology that analyzes written human language displays compelling possibilities for computer assisted language learning (CALL). Applications may be designed to examine second language students’ free text production in order to suggest improvements, draw attention to selected linguistic elements, provide examples from native language use, etc. However, language technology is not free from issues. Output from the tools is occasionally inaccurate, and the tools’ emphasis on language structure stands in possible contrast with pedagogies that foreground the social nature of language. These difficulties cannot be resolved by improving technology alone. It is equally important to find out in empirical detail how students handle possibly problematic directions from particular tools, and how tasks and teacher guidance may affect students’ tool usage. This thesis provides detailed analyses of applied CALL activities with a language tool, in order to discern how usage of that particular tool occurs, and how complex interrelationships of tool and context of use direct students. The thesis makes six interrelated contributions, ranging from particular empirical results to implications for general theory and methodology in CALL. On the level of theory, the thesis 1) provides an argument to reintroduce language technology in CALL, and 2) suggests grounding in sociocultural theory for investigating second language classroom CALL as it unfolds. From these standpoints, it 3) develops methodology and empirical studies on the use of a particular tool in the hands of students in class. The studies result in 4) illuminations of problems in use and means to avoid these problems by attending to classroom setting. Returning to general theory, the results provide 5) evidence that the introduction of novel tools demands more than merely providing technology for students and teachers, suggesting 6) a need for more detailed considerations of how CALL tools are introduced to students.

Abstract:
This research project examines the photographs of mujercitos and hombrecitas in the exemplary Mexican nota roja periodical Alarma!, from 1963 to 1986. The photographs of mujercitos, "effeminate men" and hombrecitas, "masculine type women" (as defined by Alarma!) are not what one expects from a nota roja periodical. Nota roja is a particular news genre for the narration of violence characterized by its gruesome and cruel photographic content. Within these photographs, mujercitos and hombrecitas are shown posing and taking the center stage of the camera for 23 consecutive years. Through an analysis of how the photographs of mujercitos and hombrecitas featured in the nota roja periodical Alarma! inform and participate in the larger national imaginary in relation to peripheral sexualities in Mexico, my dissertation contends that these photographs work as a site of resistance to and a subversion of many different forms of violence in Mexico. Moreover, this analysis reveals a process of subjectivation and subject identification informed as much by class/skin tonalities as by gender/sex. As such, my dissertation maps some of the zones of tension between the main Anglo North American theories of performative gender/sex within the pigmentocratic sociocultural system of Mexico.
Ce projet de recherche s'intéresse aux photographies de mujercitos et de hombrecitas dans le fameux périodique nota roja mexicain, Alarma!, de 1963 à 1986. Les photographies de mujercitos, « hommes efféminées » et hombrecitas « femmes masculines » (définis comme tel dans Alarma!) sont quelque peu inattendu dans un magazine nota roja. La presse nota roja est spécialisé dans une narration sensationnaliste de la violence et se caractérise par un contenu photographique tape-à-l'œil, très cru et souvent morbide. Pourtant ces sexualités périphériques vont s'y mettre en scène et prendre la pose devant l'objectif et pendant 23 années consécutives. A partir d'une analyse sur la manière dont les photographies de mujercitos et hombrecitas publiées dans le périodique de nota roja, Alarma! rendent comptent et participent du large imaginaire des sexualité périphérique au Mexique, ma dissertation soutient que ces photographies fonctionnent comme lieu de résistance et de subversion face à différentes formes de violence au Mexique. En outre, cette analyse révèle un processus de subjectivation et d´identification du sujet, défini aussi bien à partir de la classe social /tonalité de peau que du genre /sexe. De la sorte, ma dissertation cartographie les zones de tensions entre les principales théories nord-américaines et anglophones de genre /sexe performatif avec le système socio-culture de pigmentocratie au Mexique.

Mason, Mark Daniel. "A Phenomenological Study of Professional Identity Change in Released-time Seminary Teachers." DigitalCommons@USU, 2012. https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/1289.

Full text
Abstract:
Many practitioners commonly deal with implementing a change that is imposed by an organization. Some imposed changes require practitioners to alter more than what they do in practice but also to change their identity. Many researchers have studied identity change through the lens of sociocultural theory, specifically utilizing communities of practice theory (CoP). However, the majority of these studies used CoP theory as a vehicle to implement the imposed change. Yet some studies have found that after the trial period ends many practitioners revert back to the way they performed in practice prior to the study. One reason for this problem could be that the nature of the change experience that practitioners must undergo is not understood. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to reveal the nature of the change experience of six released-time seminary teachers in response to the adoption of the teaching and learning emphasis (TLE) within the Seminaries and Institutes of Religion (S&I) for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Specifically, the research question was "What is the nature and meaning of the change experience of a sample of released-time seminary teachers who are considered to be effective at learning to understand and implement TLE"? Researching S&I teachers' change experience is important because it may relate not only to the needs of the S&I organization, but also in a broader sense to the nature of the experience of practitioners who undergo an imposed change by the organization for which they work that alters their professional identity. Three central themes were found that represented the nature of the change experience for the sample group. The themes were represented as transformational, sociocultural, and self-reflective change. Each participant's experience varied in the particular details of his individual change experience. Nevertheless, all participants experienced some degree or kind of transformational change within their particular configuration of knowledge, character, and professional practice. Furthermore, all study participants engaged in sociocultural learning practices to facilitate their change. Finally, study participants experienced self-reflective changes.

Abstract:
This paper is about a didactic action model named VIQTORIA that intervenes in the process of pluricultural competence acquisition. This work aims to characterize how the postulates of the VIQTORIA model are fulfilled on printed and digital learning systems commonly used in Spanish as a Foreign Language teaching. In order to achieve that, five criteria support the creation of a corpus that classifies 10 learning systems into two categories. The systems are characterized using a diagnostic tool composed of 338 items grouped in 60 parameters, which are distributed in 9 blocks. These blocks capture the four postulates of VIQTORIA: the qualification of the competition, the structuring of the thematic core, the didactic iteration and the operativization of the skills acquisitions device, as well as the constructs that operationalize the pluricultural competence: the Sociocultural Proximity and the Linguistic Posture. The quantitave nature of the diagnostic tool favors the triangulation of results. However, this work is part of a broader heuristic investigation in which the emergence of theory is predominant. Even though the results suggest a considerable room for improvement, the systems analysed, by their digital nature, are involved in constant evolution which could lead to them overcoming the limitations of the traditional teaching-learning paradigm.

Abstract:
Desde sus orígenes los plásticos han revolucionado el mundo debido a su versatilidad frente a otros materiales, sin embargo, el volumen de material ha crecido ostensiblemente como se registra en los datos de Plastics (2015), donde se afirma que 311 millones de toneladas de plástico se han producido en el mundo en el año 2014. De otra parte, según el informe del Banco Internacional de Desarrollo (2011), el negocio del reciclaje en Latinoamérica, es en su mayoría informal, los recicladores desempeñan una labor ambiental importante siendo ellos quienes recolectan el 60.9% de los residuos reciclables (en Colombia), estos trabajadores obtienen una remuneración muy baja aun cuando manipulan materias primas con alto valor económico, siendo sus ingresos mensuales en promedio 22,14 USD es decir menos de un dólar diario, lo cual establece índices de pobreza absoluta y hace necesario intervenir con el fin de dignificar el trabajo y erradicar la pobreza extrema. (Programa de Naciones Unidas , 2015). Con estos elementos preliminares del volumen de materiales plásticos y el trabajo subvalorado de los recicladores, este proyecto propone reciclar plásticos desarrollando una extrusora que produzca la transformación del material plástico de consumo masivo desechado, en filamento para impresión 3D, -teniendo en cuenta la emergente masificación de las impresoras 3D FDM (Fused Deposition Material)- Este trabajo es desarrollado en conjunto con una comunidad de “reciclaje Nashira” en el Bolo San Isidro, corregimiento del Valle del Cauca - Colombia y plantea su desarrollo a través de metodologías de co-diseño incluyendo a la comunidad activamente en el proyecto (Sanders & Stappers, 2014), a su vez es necesario abordar los elementos claves de este proceso mediante estrategias sistémicas de desarrollo de producto (Hernandis, 2015), así a partir de este enfoque se define la configuración del objeto final con el diseño como medio transformador de aspectos intangibles como el conocimiento, asociado una dimensión sociocultural donde la interacción es dada siempre por la comunidad como actor principal.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3759

Abstract:
There is consensus among researchers are recognizing that managing and projecting in complexity multidimensionality (Manzini, Baule, & Bertola, 2004) represents one of the mains challenges and constants of contemporaries’ processes of innovation. This systemic distinguishing peculiarity makes impossible to standardize the design processes because every single situation needs to be solve by adopting different strategies (Celaschi & Deserti, 2007). Nevertheless, those innovative processes can be developed and managed by refer us to tools and practices of design into the paradigms of multidisciplinary and multidimensional. However, what happens when professors have to transmit those concepts to young students of design faculties? We have to consider that normally those students are coming from second-degree schools, which programs usually still insist on content rigidly divided in disciplines and don´t consider how the contemporary relation between space and time has overturned for them (Morin, 2001). Young students generally disclaim their past in the meaning of heritage, values and techniques knowledge; they live in the present, a time that does not exist; a time that today results enormously expanded by globalization processes. They still living in a reality of which territorial capital subsystems are characterized by an entropic strong dichotomy of entities in opposition but, on the other hand, in balance within themselves, as for example topics as material/immaterial, collective/identity, culture/industry, etc. So, which are the design didactic challenges to provide horizontal skills for allowing young students to understand complexity and manage knowledge of the reality? This article will discuss the case study of the perception among design of a newly generation admitted at the Innovation and Design Engineering Degree of the Universidad Panamericana – Guadalajara Campus. As expected, in this new generation we can especially observe a resistance to consider the sociocultural, business, technological and territorial dimensions as systems that strategically characterized and affected plural aspects of the design innovation processes. The contribute then proceed in analyzing case studies of didactic activities for creating skills and sensibility able to develop this capability to observe, select and manage the intangible in order to optimize the design of the tangible in the young generations.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3328

Abstract:
Efforts to support help-seeking by victims of partner violence in couples affected by incarceration represent a key part of larger efforts in the fields of domestic violence and victim services to improve the accessibility of services in marginalized communities and better meet complex victim needs. Qualitative data from 167 Multi-site Family Study participants suggest that involvement with the criminal justice system (whether directly or through a family member) introduces unique individual, interpersonal, and sociocultural barriers to defining one’s experiences as a problem, deciding to seek help, and selecting sources of help. Opportunities exist not only to tailor service delivery approaches in ways that overcome the individual and interpersonal obstacles that affect victims but also to pursue longer-range shifts in public policy and community infrastructure that will address broader and more-entrenched barriers to help-seeking.
