Information and Communications Technology in Primary School Education
by Subrata Sarkar Sanjay Mohapatra J. SundarakrishnanThe main focus of this monograph is to discuss the role of technology in education in emerging markets considering that many countries have attempted to reform their educational systems using large scale interventions in the last two decades. Educational change can be prompted by two exact opposites in two different settings; for example, Western countries are faced with the problem of falling enrollments whereas developing countries have to adjust to rapid acceleration in enrollments. Based on the need to bring about change, these reforms subscribe to a large diversity including attempts at restructuring school systems, curriculum revisions, pedagogical change, technological change, assessment- related changes, work condition changes, and so on. Although there have been reforms in schools over the last century, they have been only first order classroom reforms; a 'deep-seated continuity' still persists in both schooling and teaching. Educational reforms are therefore plagued with different kinds of problems: the problem of successful initial change taking place, the problem of replicating successful change in varying contexts, and the problem of institutionalization or durability of the change. Readers will also discover that American India Foundation, having worked in the educational sphere for more than a decade, intends to transform the school ecosystem through its 'Digital Equalizer' Program (DE). The program strives to foster an environment of collaborative learning by effectively empowering teachers to use technology as a pedagogic tool leading to better learning outcomes among students of under-resourced schools across India. The author sheds new light on how the DE program is affecting change in the state of Odisha's education system and the adoption of new pedagogic teaching techniques.
Information and Control in Networks
by Giacomo Como Bo Bernhardsson Anders RantzerInformation and Control in Networks demonstrates the way in which system dynamics and information flows intertwine as they evolve, and the central role played by information in the control of complex networked systems. It is a milestone on the road to that convergence from traditionally independent development of control theory and information theory which has emerged strongly in the last fifteen years, and is now a very active research field. In addition to efforts in control and information theory, the text is witness to strong research in such diverse fields as computer science, mathematics, and statistics. Aspects that are given specialist treatment include: · data-rate theorems; · computation and control over communication networks; · decentralized stochastic control; · Gaussian networks and Gaussian-Markov random fields; and · routability in information networks. Information and Control in Networks collects contributions from world-leading researchers in the area who came together for the Lund Center for Control of Complex Engineering Systems Workshop in Information and Control in Networks from 17th-19th October 2012; the workshop being the centrepiece of a five-week-long focus period on the same theme. A source of exciting cross-fertilization and new ideas for extensive future research, this volume will be of great interest to any researcher or graduate student interested in the interaction of control and information theory.

Information and Elections
by R. Michael AlvarezR. Michael Alvarez examines how voters make their decisions in presidential elections. He begins with the assumption that voters have neither the incentive nor the inclination to be well-informed about politics and presidential candidates. Candidates themselves have incentives to provide ambiguous information about themselves, their records and their issue positions. Yet the author shows that a tremendous amount of information is made available about presidential candidates. And he uncovers clear and striking evidence that people are not likely to vote for candidates about whom they know very little. Alvarez explores how voters learn about candidates through the course of a campaign. He provides a detailed analysis of the media coverage of presidential campaigns and shows that there is a tremendous amount of media coverage of these campaigns, that much of this coverage is about issues and is informative, and that voters learn from this coverage. The paperback edition of this work has been updated to include information on the 1996 Presidential election. Information and Electionsis a book that will be read by all who are interested in campaigns and electoral behavior in presidential and other elections. "Thoughtfully conceptualized, painstakingly analyzed, with empirically significant conclusions on presidential election voting behavior, this book is recommended for both upper-division undergraduate and graduate collections. " --Choice R. Michael Alvarez is Associate Professor of Political Science, California Institute of Technology.
Information and Interaction
by Ian T. Durham Dean RicklesIn this essay collection, leading physicists, philosophers, and historians attempt to fill the empty theoretical ground in the foundations of information and address the related question of the limits to our knowledge of the world. Over recent decades, our practical approach to information and its exploitation has radically outpaced our theoretical understanding - to such a degree that reflection on the foundations may seem futile. But it is exactly fields such as quantum information, which are shifting the boundaries of the physically possible, that make a foundational understanding of information increasingly important. One of the recurring themes of the book is the claim by Eddington and Wheeler that information involves interaction and putting agents or observers centre stage. Thus, physical reality, in their view, is shaped by the questions we choose to put to it and is built up from the information residing at its core. This is the root of Wheeler's famous phrase "it from bit. " After reading the stimulating essays collected in this volume, readers will be in a good position to decide whether they agree with this view.
Information and Internet Law: Global Practice
by Thomas ShawThe worlds of today and tomorrow rely upon open networks connecting far-flung participants exchanging information both personal and commercial. Bringing some certainty to this very dynamic environment are the legal foundations supporting the free flow of information over the Internet. <p><p> New lawyers, lawyers new to information and Internet law, lawyers updating their knowledge on the latest statutes and cases, and lawyers desiring a global comparative legal perspective are among the audiences who require this single resource to consolidate their understanding of global information and Internet law. This book, up-to-date to March 2018, provides insight by looking at current statutes, regulations, and directives in the United States and Europe, supplemented by statutes in Asia and the Americas ex-U.S. It discusses and identifies issues raised by the latest U.S. and EU cases on protection of information and use of the Internet. <p><p> It starts with a risk-based, lifecycle approach to this area of law. The areas of information law addressed: privacy, information security, and data protection law, unlawful data disclosures through cybercrime and data breach, and lawful data disclosures related to messaging and surveillance. The areas of Internet law addressed: access, jurisdiction, speech, intermediary liability, intellectual property, and e-commerce through electronic and website agreements. Bringing a unique perspective to explain a complex topic, the author has written numerous books on legal technology and legal history, writes and speaks extensively on the latest developments in technology law, teaches U.S.-EU comparative law school courses on information, Internet, and emerging technologies law, and had worked in complementary disciplines across the major parts of the world. This book is the result of those many years of experience and insight.
