The matrix structure based on action and activity theory principles facilitated the systematic and extensive content requirements specification. Comprehensive content requirement matrices were produced. The tables include user group specific attributes for all identified actions and activities. For some domains, the domain of tourism and leisure, and the domain of transportation, there was the difficulty of the sheer extent of the activities and types of transport, and hence the huge quantity of information needs related to their performance by people with vari...

The vignette as an exercise in perception / Η βινιέτα ως άσκηση αντίληψης

Pedagogical work requires the willingness to engage with new situations and with people in their diversity. This book does not offer any simple recipes, but a gentle approach to important steps towards professionalisation in the teaching profession. These lead via an open attitude of perception and the inclusion of corporeality to an insight into how learning and teaching processes can be understood in a new or different way. With vignettes and examples from different pedagogical fields, the theoretical concepts are presented and reflected on their application. The book contains an English-language and a Greek-language version.

Everyday hundreds of millions of people go to work. Hours upon hours are spent at desks, in offices, in meetings, speaking to and collaborating with colleagues.

In this eBook, 9 to 5: Your Mind at Work, we look at some of these factors, including the physical office space, how to foster creativity and communication, the psychology of effective leadership, the benefits and importance of diversity and achieving work-life balance.
