El Pràcticum com un 'work in progress' compartit www.eduportfolio.org

Des de fa dos cursos, professors de les universitats de Tarragona, Lleida i Girona desenvolupem un projecte d’innovació centrat en el pràcticum dels Estudis de Mestre el qual, a més de les tutories i seminaris, utilitza el portafoli electrònic com a eina d’intercanvi, acompanyament i presentació de les produccions dels i les estudiants. Des del curs 2009-10, i amb un ajut MQD de l’AGAUR, s’experimenta amb aquesta eina Web 2.0 –www.eduportfolio.org– dissenyada per la Université de Montréal, una plataforma que s’està utilitzant actualment als cinc continents. L’Eduportfolio agilitza la relació practicants-tutors i l’assessorament en l’elaboració progressiva de la memòria del Pràcticum i del projecte que els estudiants han de dur a terme a l’escola, i també obre noves possibilitats en aquest període dedicat a la pràctica docent reflexiva

Collaborative business networks evaluation of technological tools for decision support making

Nowadays, companies are living great difficulties on managing their business due to constant and unpredictable economic market fluctuations. Recent changes in market trends (such as the constant demand for new products and services, mass customization and the drastic reduction of delivery time) lead companies to adopt strategies of creating partnerships with other companies as a way to respond effectively to such difficult economical times. Collaborative Networks’ concept born by the consequence of companies could no longer consider their internal business processes’ management as sufficient and tend to seek for a collaborative approach with other partners for their critical processes. Information technologies (ICT) assumed a major role acting as “enablers” of these kinds of networks, enhancing information sharing and business process integration. Several new trends concerning ICT architectures have been created to support collaborative networks requirements, but still doesn’t exist a common platform to reduce the needed integration effort on virtual organizations. This study aims to investigate the current technological solutions available in the market which enhances the management of companies’ business processes (specially, Collaborative Planning). Finally, the research work ends with the presentation of a conceptual model to answer to the constraints evaluated.

The Centre of Memories: work in progress. Case of the Michel Giacometti Labour Museum, Setúbal, Portugal

The work on Social Memory, focused on the biographic method and the paths of immaterial Heritage, are the fabric that we have chosen to substantiate the idea of museum. The social dimensions of memory, its construction and representation, are the thickness of the exhibition fabric. The specificity of museological work in contemporary times resembles a fine lace, a meticulous weaving of threads that flow from time, admirable lace, painstaking and complex, created with many needles, made up of hollow spots and stitches (of memories and things forgotten). Repetitions and symmetries are the pace that perpetuates it, the rhythmic grammar that gives it body. A fluid body, a single piece, circumstantial. It is always possible to create new patterns, new compositions, with the same threads. Accurately made, properly made, this lace of memories and things forgotten is always an extraordinary creation, a web of wonder that expands fantasy, generates value and feeds the endless reserve of the community’s knowledge, values and beliefs.
