Abstract:
This article narrates a partial history of two decades of doing graphic design with free, libre and open-source tools. We follow the development of tools and practices that allowed graphic design practice to shift, such as layouts being generated by scripts, books being rendered out of webpages and editorial workflows being transformed into collaborative environments. It threads through a body of shared knowledge and modes of designing with software, focusing on sites that are key in these design practices: layout tools, open fonts and publishing platforms. As practitioners and active participants, the authors provide reflections on the entangled positions of these tools and the possibilities for engagement that they offer. By following their uptake by groups and collectives in Europe through time, we end with an analysis of the way that changes in the wider free software community and digital practice affect these still ongoing initiatives.

Abstract:
This is the second volume of a two-volume special issue of the American Indian Culture and Research Journal dedicated to the indirect impact of COVID-19 on Indigenous Peoples. The first, 44.2, reports on COVID-19’s extensive impact on Indigenous Peoples and the resulting variety of responses at community and local levels. This second volume, 44.3, provides specific research and insights for improving reporting, identification, and prevention of COVID-19 cases and deaths. Several contributors to this issue respond to the urgent need to ensure, for small populations, and Indigenous Peoples in particular, that data collection provides detailed information on race and tribal nation identifiers. Like this lack of data disaggregation, data inaccuracy also impedes understanding of the impact of a pandemic. Other researchers find that a hallmark of this pandemic—the shift from in-person to virtual interactions in many aspects of life—has clarified that innovative telehealth and virtual methods already underway for Indigenous Peoples may represent the frontiers of better health care, access, and service. “Moving Forward: No Scientific Integrity without an Acknowledgment of Past Wrongs,” a commentary emphasizing the necessary actions the US government must take if progress is to be made, concludes this special issue.

Abstract:
The usage of social media such as YouTube, Twitter and Facebook has expanded drastically. Today almost every organization has a Facebook page and a Twitter account that complements their webpage and their physical stores. However, why and how are they using these social medias?  This research focuses on why and how organizations are using Facebook and Twitter in their business strategy. More specifically, what methods and organizational strategies are used. The requirement for our research was that the organization had to had some success on these social medias but due to time and budget limitations, the research is restricted to three local organizations that have a national presence. Conducting primary data with three face-to-face semi-structured interviews and obtaining secondary data such as books, theses and academic journals we had the data to make an analysis about how Facebook and Twitter could make these three organizations gain competitive advantage.  By correctly utilizing the tools that social networking sites (SNS) provide; organizations can make way for a differentiation path that provides competitive advantage, build brand awareness, and provide statistical tools for evaluating customer behavior. One of the benefits of SNS is that they are virtually free to implement, both from a capital and human resource investment point of view. This research shows that organizations utilizing SNS in order to gain competitive advantage need to focus on creating a committed and engaged user base. By keeping in mind the drivers of differentiation: timing, location, linkages and scale, organizations transform their competitive advantage into a sustained competitive advantage.

Abstract:
The main focus of this thesis is how language is used to construct knowledge in social interaction. A more specific aim is the investigation of the strategies of British primary school children for constructing multimodal electronic documents, and in particular for constructing collaboratively WebPages in History. In the first part of the thesis the two themes are critically explored through a literature review of sociocultural theory, literacy, and lCT, and through two pilot studies. In the first study, I investigate how language use varies according to the difficulty of tasks. In the second study, I investigate how language use in situated literacy events relates to wider cultural practices for constructing e-mails and WebPages. Drawing on the result of these studies, I evaluate the relationship between the concepts of Zone of Proximal Development, scaffolding, exploratory talk, and Intermental Development Zone (IDZ), arguing in favour of the usefulness of IDZ for studies in social interaction. In the second part of the thesis, I explore different approaches to discourse analysis developing an analytic strategy for the main study. I identify the ethnography of communication as a starting point, choosing the 'communicative event' as the unit of analysis to investigate, using NVivo: how participants construct categories of meaning while constructing WebPages in History, and the categories of participants in relation to the activity frames of design, History, and group work. I conclude that, in contrast to a view of "effective use of language" linked to explicitness, participants demonstrated to be communicatively competent in managing deictic terms and intertextual references, recognizing cultural patterns, and adjusting their efforts according to a division of labour, and the collaborative nature of meaning making. Finally, the notion of 'situated activity system' is enriched by illuminating how categories of participants, activity frames, and cultural tools are interrelated in such system.

Abstract:
As urban land expands across the globe and impervious surfaces continue to be used for constructing urban infrastructure, stormwater treatment costs and environmental damage from untreated stormwater will rise. Well designed urban landscapes can employ trees and soils to reduce stormwater runoff flowing to streams and treatment facilities. Typical urban soil, however, is compacted and restricts tree growth via high soil strength and inadequate gas exchange. A site preparation method that deeply incorporates compost and includes trees for long term carbon input and pore development was evaluated in the urban setting of Arlington, Virginia. Three species were used in that study of 25 streetside plantings. The site preparation affected soil at 15 30 cm by lowering soil bulk density by 13.3%, and increasing macro-aggregate-associated carbon by 151% compared to control plots, and resulted in 77% greater tree growth during the first year after transplant. In a second experiment, rainfall simulations were used to evaluate common landscape mulch materials for their ability to prevent compaction from traffic as well their affect on surface runoff before and after traffic. When plots were subjected to heavy rainfall, (>97 mm/h) mulches were found to reduce sediment loss 82% and 73% before and after traffic, respectively. Runoff rates from wood chips were only 0.19 ml/s faster after traffic while rates from bare soil and marble gravel with geotextile increased 2.28 and 2.56 ml/s, respectively. Management of soils, trees and landscapes for stormwater benefit could reduce cost of wastewater treatment for municipalities and can prevent environmental degradation.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
There has been a rising concern surrounding risk within society. This increasing concern has dominated almost all aspects of human life and more specifically the way in which citizens are governed. How risk is addressed in general has shifted significantly; given this, the criminal justice system has also seen an escalation in concerns surrounding risk. Subsequently, there has been a push towards evaluating said risks through the use of actuarial assessment tools. Research has shown that with the rising reliance on actuarial assessment tools came the decrease in practitioner’s ability to rely on their professional judgement when conducting their work. However, there has been a gap identified in the literature. This gap pertains to how practitioners, particularly, probation officers perceive the impact of these actuarial tools on their work. This study aims to analyse how probation officers, within the province of Ontario, view the impact of actuarial assessment tools on their work. This study is guided by the theory of governmentality, as coined by Michel Foucault. In order to explore the impact of actuarial assessment tools on the practice of probation, seven semi-structured interviews were conducted with former probation officers. The perceptions varied and participants did not provide a unique and monolithic response; rather, the voices of all participants were shared to create a larger picture of how actuarial assessment tools impact the work of practitioners in the practice of probation.

Gómez, Palou Allard Marta. "Managing Terminology for Translation Using Translation Environment Tools: Towards a Definition of Best Practices." Thèse, Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/22837.

Full text
Abstract:
Translation Environment Tools (TEnTs) became popular in the early 1990s as a partial solution for coping with ever-increasing translation demands and the decreasing number of translators available. TEnTs allow the creation of repositories of legacy translations (translation memories) and terminology (integrated termbases) used to identify repetition in new source texts and provide alternate translations, thereby reducing the need to translate the same information twice. While awareness of the important role of terminology in translation and documentation management has been on the rise, little research is available on best practices for building and using integrated termbases. The present research is a first step toward filling this gap and provides a set of guidelines on how best to optimize the design and use of integrated termbases. Based on existing translation technology and terminology management literature, as well as our own experience, we propose that traditional terminology and terminography principles designed for stand-alone termbases should be adapted when an integrated termbase is created in order to take into account its unique characteristics: active term recognition, d one-click insertion of equivalents into the target text and document pretranslation. The proposed modifications to traditional principles cover a wide range of issues, including using record structures with fewer fields, adopting the TBX-Basic’s record structure, classifying records by project or client, creating records based on equivalent pairs rather concepts in cases where synonyms exist, recording non-term units and multiple forms of a unit, and using translated documents as sources. The overarching hypothesis and its associated concrete strategies were evaluated first against a survey of current practices in terminology management within TEnTs and later through a second survey that tested user acceptance of the strategies. The result is a set of guidelines that describe best practices relating to design, content selection and information recording within integrated termbases that will be used for translation purposes. These guidelines will serve as a point of reference for new users of TEnTs, as an academic resource for translation technology educators, as a map of challenges in terminology management within TEnTs that translation software developers seek to resolve and, finally, as a springboard for further research on the optimization of integrated termbases for translation.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to study customer-supplier relationships, and particularly their partnerships, to help managers and practitioners successfully design, develop, implement and deploy tools and joint practices for their upstream systems. To achieve this purpose, a total of 1,811 (potential mailed survey questionnaire respondents) and 7 (structured interviewees) managers who are responsible for purchasing, sales/ marketing, quality-related, and production- or operations-related functions of U.S. private manufacturing companies in SIC 35, 36, and 37 were used to collect qualitative and quantitative data. Using 172 usable mailed survey questionnaire responses (response rate: 9.78%) and qualitative data from the structured interviews, the following major findings were derived: * Four tools/joint practices most frequently used in customer-supplier relationships were supplier certification/verification, joint problem-solving teams, quality audits, and Just-In-Time production and delivery, * Five tools/joint practices that have been used most effectively were ISO 9000 and/or QS 9000 and/or Baldrige criteria, quality audit, JIT production/delivery, joint planning, and joint problem-solving teams, * Five tools/joint practices that have been most internalized were ISO 9000 and/or QS 9000 and/or Baldrige criteria, quality audit, JIT production/delivery, joint problem-solving teams, and supplier or customer performance measurement systems, * Overall perceived organizational performance improvement was 25% (30% quality improvement, 21% cost reduction, and 26% cycle time reduction). In addition to these findings, eight hypothesized relationships were tested using two independent variables (joint use of specific tools and joint use of practices) and four dependent variables (informed partners, role integrity, conflict resolution, and mutuality). The results showed that customer and supplier companies do not share the same experience with respect to the relationships between the two independent variables and conflict resolution. Using these findings, a set of practices was proposed as a means for further improving specific organizational performance dimensions and providing a mechanism to better share the consequences of joint action.<br>Ph.

Abstract:
This study analyzes the impact of virtual collaboration tools on knowledge sharing in distributed and virtual teams, operating at the intersection of technology, human behavior, and organizational processes. It aims to unravel the complexities of knowledge sharing in modern workplaces by examining the role of these tools in facilitating knowledge exchange, identifying factors for effective practices, and exploring the impact of organizational culture and industry dynamics. Through empirical research, including a self-completed online questionnaire and secondary data sources, the study addresses key research objectives and hypotheses, seeking to maintain elevated levels of knowledge sharing with increasing virtual collaboration. Building on previous research on IT management models and knowledge exchange, the study finds that virtual collaboration tools positively influence knowledge sharing, with specific tools and functions such as speed of access and file storage contributing significantly. However, challenges remain in transparency of information structure and integration with organizational tools. Despite limitations in sample size, the research offers valuable insights and practical strategies for organizations navigating today's dynamic work landscape, supporting best practices in environments user planning and IT tool design, and deepening the understanding of knowledge sharing in virtual.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper reflects on the role of communities of practice in building and supporting critical alternatives to conventional, Dominant Design (Akama, 2021; Rosner, 2018). Dominant Design refers to design practices cultivated within our industrialised, imperialist, patriarchal, capitalist modernity. Discourses and practices addressing this include decolonising design, stemming from modernity/coloniality critique and Indigenous knowledge systems, and anti-oppressive frameworks for design, based in anti- racism and Black feminist scholarship. These discourses at the margins of the dominant discourse and practice recognise the need for critical alternatives to design practices (Abdulla et al., 2019; Costanza-Chock 2018; Mignolo 2007; Schultz et al., 2018). This paper considers communities of practice as one way of practicing with the challenges of overwhelm, fear and lack of understanding and resources when pursuing decolonising and anti-oppression discourse and practice. The paper discusses the importance of practice as an ethic, and the role of spaces for rehearsing, experimenting with new types of doing, while being held accountable in community.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Despite widespread adoption and an extensive body of research evaluating Continuous Integration (CI), there is evidence that not all CI practices are fully adopted. Aims: To help the full adoption of CI, we present in this paper Holter - a tool that automatically calculates and monitors a suite of metrics associated with CI practices. The tool enables developers to continuously access these metrics and receive alerts regarding the evolution of CI practices. Method: We illustrate the usage of our tool for monitoring CI practices and compare the Holter monitoring dashboard with those of existing CI services and third-party tools. Results: Leading CI services and complementary tools still offer basic support for monitoring CI practices. Focusing on monitoring fundamental information related to the performance of the CI pipeline, Holter provides a more comprehensive perspective of CI that cannot be found in other tools. Conclusions: Holter can be used to monitor and improve CI practices in software development projects. Additionally, it can provide an overview of a project’s CI maturity.

Abstract:
This project was carried out for the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE) Research Foundation. The objectives of the project, in relation to fire engineering tools, were to understand the common tasks and workflow of practising fire engineers, identify the tools needed by them and the current gaps between the common practices and available practical tools. Given this knowledge, future work to fill these gaps and develop new tools can be proposed.

Woodhill, Jim, and Juliet Millican. Systems Thinking and Practice: A guide to concepts, principles and tools for FCDO and partners. Institute of Development Studies, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2023.002.

Full text
Abstract:
This guide is a basic reference on systems thinking and practice tailored to the context and needs of the UK Government’s Foreign, Commonwealth &amp; Development Office (FCDO). It is an output of the FCDO Knowledge for Development Programme (K4D), which facilitated a Learning Journey on Systems Thinking and Practice with FCDO staff during 2021 and 2022. The guide offers a common language and shared framing of systems thinking for FCDO and its partners. It explores what this implies for working practices, business processes and leadership. It also offers links to additional resources and tools on systems thinking. We hope it can support systems thinking to become more commonplace within the culture and practices of FCDO and working relations with partner organisations.

Filmer, Deon, Ezequiel Molina, and Waly Wane. Identifying Effective Teachers: Highlights from Four Classroom Observation Tools. Research on Improving Systems of Education (RISE), 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.35489/bsg-rise-ri_2022/038.

Full text
Abstract:
Teachers explain a significant share of variation across students’ achievement (Araujo et al., 2016; Bold et al., 2019; Dobbie and Fryer, 2013). But these achievements are poorly correlated with teachers’ observable characteristics including age, gender, education, experience, and hours in the school (Aaronson et al., 2007; Kane and Staiger, 2008; Rockoff et al., 2008). This suggests there could be other factors such as teachers’ content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, classroom behaviour, and other practices that are potentially important determinants of students’ academic performance. There is growing interest in understanding these factors and exploring how they impact student learning. This has led to an increase in the development and use of structured classroom observation tools to observe, analyse, and measure teaching and learning practices within classrooms. These tools have provided information on current teaching practices and improvements over time.

Abstract:
After publication of the APO’s Knowledge Management Tools and Techniques (KMT&amp;T) in 2010, information access expanded dramatically, the ISO 30401 Knowledge Management Standard was issued, and KM approaches to productivity gains evolved. The revised KMT&amp;T reflects those changes. It explains the top 20 tools for starting KM; contains current website references, video links, and document templates; and answers FAQs on KM practices. The new edition of KMT&amp;T shows how productivity-focused KM can benefit all types and sizes of enterprises today.

Full text
Abstract:
In this report, we share insights from a Research-Practice-Industry Partnership (RPIP) that explored mathematics instructional practices with support of digital mathematics tools. RPIPs bring together researchers, practitioners, and product developers, with each party having an equal voice, in a rapid-cycle model for edtech research and development. We framed this RPIP using the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL): provide multiple means of Engagement, Representation, and Action &amp; Expression. These principles support learner variability, improve accessibility, and are closely aligned with mathematics education research, which highlights the multimodal nature of mathematics and the need to use and connect multiple representations to help students develop understanding of mathematics concepts.
