eLearning for Quality Teaching in Higher Education: Teachers’ Perception, Practice, and Interventions
by Nan YangThis book explores the impact of eLearning on the quality of teaching in higher education, focusing on three main issues: university teachers’ perception of quality teaching, their strategies for achieving quality teaching in practice, and interventions that design and implement online collaborative activities in a large class. The book argues that if eLearning targets the real problems in practice and is appropriately designed and implemented, it can improve the teaching quality at universities. It also demonstrates the complexity of teachers’ perception of quality teaching and contextual factors that affect teaching practice and quality. Further, it explores university teachers’ perception of quality teaching in Italy, the UK and China – an aspect that is rarely addressed in the literature – and reveals why the impact of ICTs on university teaching is not as great as in other fields by explaining the issues that threaten the quality of day-to-day teaching. Lastly, it confirms that traditional lecturing, combined with online collaborative activities, improves the quality of teaching compared to traditional lecturing alone. As such, this book is a necessary and important resource for the research community.

eIoT: The Development Of The Energy Internet Of Things In Energy Infrastructure
by Amro M. Farid Steffi O. Muhanji Alison E. FlintThis open access book explores the collision between the sustainable energy transition and the Internet of Things (IoT). In that regard, this book’s arrival is timely. Not only is the Internet of Things for energy applications, herein called the energy Internet of Things (eIoT), rapidly developing but also the transition towards sustainable energy to abate global climate is very much at the forefront of public discourse. It is within the context of these two dynamic thrusts, digitization and global climate change, that the energy industry sees itself undergoing significant change in how it is operated and managed. This book recognizes that they impose five fundamental energy management change drivers: 1.) the growing demand for electricity, 2.) the emergence of renewable energy resources, 3.) the emergence of electrified transportation, 4.) the deregulation of electric power markets, 5.) and innovations in smart grid technology. Together, they challenge many of the assumptions upon which the electric grid was first built. <P><P> The goal of this book is to provide a single integrated picture of how eIoT can come to transform our energy infrastructure. This book links the energy management change drivers mentioned above to the need for a technical energy management solution. It, then, describes how eIoT meets many of the criteria required for such a technical solution. In that regard, the book stresses the ability of eIoT to add sensing, decision-making, and actuation capabilities to millions or perhaps even billions of interacting “smart" devices. With such a large scale transformation composed of so many independent actions, the book also organizes the discussion into a single multi-layer energy management control loop structure. Consequently, much attention is given to not just network-enabled physical devices but also communication networks, distributed control & decision making, and finally technical architectures and standards. Having gone into the detail of these many simultaneously developing technologies, the book returns to how these technologies when integrated form new applications for transactive energy. In that regard, it highlights several eIoT-enabled energy management use cases that fundamentally change the relationship between end users, utilities, and grid operators. Consequently, the book discusses some of the emerging applications for utilities, industry, commerce, and residences. The book concludes that these eIoT applications will transform today’s grid into one that is much more responsive, dynamic, adaptive and flexible. It also concludes that this transformation will bring about new challenges and opportunities for the cyber-physical-economic performance of the grid and the business models of its increasingly growing number of participants and stakeholders.

eHealth, Care and Quality of Life
by Fabio Capello Antonio Gaddi Marco MancaThe debate over eHealth is alive as never before. Supporters suggest that it will result in dramatic innovations in healthcare, including a giant leap towards patient-centered care, new opportunities to improve effectiveness, and enhanced wellness and quality of life. In addition, the growing market value of investments in health IT suggests that eHealth can offer at least a partial cure for the current economic stagnation. Detractors counter these arguments by claiming that eHealth has already failed: the UK Department of Health has shut down the NHS National Program for IT, Google has discontinued its Health flagship, and doubts have arisen over privacy safeguards for both patients and medical professionals. This book briefly explains why caregivers, professionals, technicians, patients, politicians, and others should all consider themselves stakeholders in eHealth. It offers myth-busting responses to some ill-considered arguments from both sides of the trench, in the process allowing a fresh look at eHealth. In addition, it describes how the technical failures of previous eHealth systems can be avoided, examines the legal basis of eHealth, and discusses associated ethical issues.

eHarmony
by Mikolaj Jan Piskorski Troy Smith Hanna HalaburdaeHarmony's CEO needs to decide how to react to imitations of its business model, encroachment by competing models and ascendance of free substitutes. The case provides four options to address these threats and asks students to choose one after they analyzed the company's strategy. The analysis begins with understanding of value proposition, as derived from failures of substitutes. It proceeds to examine industry structure and important differences across its different niches. Students can then analyze the essence of a focused differentiation strategy and understand the importance of costly strategic trade-offs. They can also estimate the size of eHarmony's competitive advantage over two other competitors before articulating threats to sustainability, all of which will help them choose one of the four options.
eGovernment in Deutschland - eine unvermutete Erfolgsgeschichte: Vom sich selbst im Weg stehen und wie die digitale Transformation doch noch gelingen kann (Edition Innovative Verwaltung)
by Andreas SchmidFür dieses Buch ist Professor Andreas Schmid der Frage nachgegangen, warum Deutschland in der Verwaltungsdigitalisierung im internationalen Vergleich so weit zurückhängt. Vermutungen und Gründe gibt es viele und sind grundlegend: sie reichen vom Föderalismus, zur Tendenz zur Überregulierung bis hin zur Absicherungsmentalität innerhalb unseres ´Juristenstaats´. Ebenso bremsen starre Verwaltungsstrukturen und eine überbordende Bürokratie das Vorankommen. Und letztlich muss auch der fehlende Mut des Staatsapparates, den Bürger nicht als Kunden zu betrachten, als Hemmschuh genannt werden. An vielen Stellen steht sich der Staat und die Verwaltung also selbst im Weg. Der Autor arbeitet die Faktoren heraus, die die Entwicklung von eGovernment im Allgemeinen hemmen und den Ausbau der eGovernment-Angebote ganz konkret in Deutschland nur langsam vorankommen lassen. Die Ergebnisse seiner wissenschaftlich-empirischen Untersuchung formuliert er in seinem ernüchternden Fazit gleichwohl motivierend positiv: „Unter den Bedingungen, unter denen wir agieren, ist es erstaunlich, wie weit wir gekommen sind. Was hoffnungsfroh stimmt, ist, dass wir in Deutschland viele Voraussetzungen erfüllen, um eine ‚Digitale-Kehrtwende‘ einzuleiten.“ Der besondere Wert seiner Arbeit besteht darin, die vielfältigen Faktoren, die eine Entwicklung des eGovernments hemmen, herausgefiltert und intensiv beleuchtet zu haben. Die digitale Transformation der Verwaltung ist machbar ebenso wie die Steigerung der Qualität der eGovernment-Angebote sowie deren Nutzung durch die Bürger. Das Buch schließt mit 11 konkreten Empfehlungen, wie Deutschland zukünftig im eGovernment Spitzenplätze erreichen kann. Aus dem Inhalt Die Ausgangslage in Deutschland Die 7 Einfluss-Faktoren für eine gelungene Verwaltungsdigitalisierung 11 konkrete Empfehlungen, wie Deutschland im eGovernment Spitzenplätze erreichen kann

eGirls, eCitizens: Putting Technology, Theory and Policy into Dialogue with Girls’ and Young Women’s Voices (Law, Technology, and Media)
by Jane Bailey and Valerie SteeveseGirls, eCitizens is a landmark work that explores the many forces that shape girls’ and young women’s experiences of privacy, identity, and equality in our digitally networked society. Drawing on the multi-disciplinary expertise of a remarkable team of leading Canadian and international scholars, as well as Canada’s foremost digital literacy organization, MediaSmarts, this collection presents the complex realities of digitized communications for girls and young women as revealed through the findings of The eGirls Project (www.egirlsproject.ca) and other important research initiatives. Aimed at moving dialogues on scholarship and policy around girls and technology away from established binaries of good vs bad, or risk vs opportunity, these seminal contributions explore the interplay of factors that shape online environments characterized by a gendered gaze and too often punctuated by sexualized violence. Perhaps most importantly, this collection offers first-hand perspectives collected from girls and young women themselves, providing a unique window on what it is to be a girl in today’s digitized society. Published in English.
eFieldnotes
by Roger Sanjek Susan W. TratnerIn this volume, sixteen distinguished scholars address the impact of digital technologies on how anthropologists do fieldwork and on what they study. With nearly three billion Internet users and more than four and a half billion mobile phone owners today, and with an ever-growing array of electronic devices and information sources, ethnographers confront a vastly different world from just decades ago, when fieldnotes produced by hand and typewriter were the professional norm.Reflecting on fieldwork experiences both off- and online, the contributors survey changes and continuities since the classic volume Fieldnotes: The Makings of Anthropology, edited by Roger Sanjek, was published in 1990. They also confront ethical issues in online fieldwork, the strictures of institutional review boards affecting contemporary research, new forms of digital data and mediated collaboration, shifting boundaries between home and field, and practical and moral aspects of fieldnote recording, curating, sharing, and archiving.The essays draw upon fieldwork in locales ranging from Japan, Liberia, Germany, India, Jamaica, Zambia, to Iraqi Kurdistan, and with diaspora groups of Brazilians in Belgium and Indonesians of Hadhrami Arab descent. In the United States, fieldwork populations include urban mothers of toddlers and young children, teen tech users, Bitcoin traders, World of Warcraft gamers, online texters and bloggers, and anthropologists themselves.With growing interest in both traditional and digital ethnographic methods, scholars and students in anthropology and sociology, as well as in computer and information sciences, linguistics, social work, communications, media studies, design, management, and policy fields, will find much of value in this engaging and accessibly written volume.Contributors: Jenna Burrell, Lisa Cliggett, Heather A.
