Book Synopsis Information Technology and Social Justice by : Rooksby, Emma
Download or read book Information Technology and Social Justice written by Rooksby, Emma and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2006-10-31 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term digital divide is still used regularly to characterize the injustice associated with inequalities in access to information and communication technologies (ICTs). As the debate continues and becomes more sophisticated, more and more aspects of the distribution of ICTs are singled out as relevant to characterizations of the digital divide and of its moral status. The best way to articulate the digital divide is to relate it to other aspects of social and distributive justice, using a mixture of pre-existing theories within moral and political philosophy. These theories are complemented with contributions from sociology, communication studies, information systems, and a range of other disciplines. Information Technology and Social Justice presents conceptual frameworks for understanding and tackling digital divides. It includes information on access and skills, access and motivation, and other various levels of access. It also presents a detailed analysis of the benefits and value of access to ICTs.
Book Synopsis New Information Technologies and Office Employment by : Nicole Mandon
Download or read book New Information Technologies and Office Employment written by Nicole Mandon and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on 17 case studies in European Community countries and a literature review, this research project derives several findings--some of them contradictory--about the evolution of qualifications related to office technology. The population studied was office technology users below the executive level. The project found that the impact of the new information technologies (NITs) is dependent on the following factors: technical characteristics and possible applications, the economic context that produces the objectives or expected results, the organizational set-up, and finally, an important factor, the methods of human resource management and the behavior of the individual and professional groups concerned. The research is organized in three chapters. The first chapter shows how technology, applications, the context, and the occupational categories have evolved since the 1960s, and how the daily experience of NITs has brought about new concepts of information and changes in patterns of behavior and roles. The second chapter shows how occupational activity has had to redefine its content and cope with a rearrangement of jobs, especially jobs in the banking, insurance, and secretarial sectors. The options offered by the present are highlighted in the last chapter. A 177-item bibliography arranged by country is included. (KC)
Book Synopsis Mainstreaming Equality in the European Union by : Teresa Rees
Download or read book Mainstreaming Equality in the European Union written by Teresa Rees and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-06-19 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mainstreaming Equality in the European Union provides a critical overview and evaluation of the potential role of the EU in perpetuating or breaking down gender segregation in the EU labour force. Teresa Rees draws upon feminist theoretical frameworks in assessing Equal Opportunitues policies and the role of training in the labour market. The same economic imperatives which put women's training on the agenda have heightened interest in designing training which attracts women into mainstream provision. Mainstreaming Equality in the European Union addresses the urgent need for academics, education and training providers, as well as policy makers to be aware of current thinking at EU level on training policy.
Book Synopsis Information Technology and Workplace Democracy by : Martin Beirne
Download or read book Information Technology and Workplace Democracy written by Martin Beirne and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolution in new technology gave rise to new work patterns and improved productivity, all of which affect the management of human resources. Expectations for increased efficiency have not always been fulfilled because of the problems that have arisen in workings of labour relations. How can management maximize the benefits of these technologies while co-operating with their employees? How far are trade unions involved in the decisions as companies adopt new technology? Is the workforce consulted in systems design? This book, originally published in 1992 looks at the problems of developing strategies in information technology when considering labour relations. Experts in industrial sociology, human resource management and organizational behaviour assess the achievements and failures, including consideration of issues such as public sector work, gender and race. Drawing on empirical evidence, the contributors cover a wide range of industries including case studies in electronics and banking, together with international comparisons.

Book Synopsis Integrating Information Technology into Education by : Donald Watson
Download or read book Integrating Information Technology into Education written by Donald Watson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deryn Watson and David Tinsley The topic of the conference, integrating infonnation technology into education, is both broad and multi-facetted. In order to help focus the papers and discussion we identified 7 themes: • Current developments in society and education influencing integration; • Teachers, their roles and concerns; • Learners, their expectations of and behaviour in an integrated environment; • Developments and concerns in the curriculum; • Successes and failures in existing practice; • Organisation and management of integrated environments; • Identification of social and political influences. Each author was invited to focus on one theme, and these remained strands throughout as can be seen from the short papers and focus group reports. The first and most significant concern therefore was to be clear about our notions of integration; what do we mean and how is this relevant? Our keynote paper from Cornu clearly marked out this debate by examining the notion of integration and alerting us to the fact that as long as the use of IT is still added to the curriculum, then integration has not yet begun.
