The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) is the leading international body representing the interests of people who rely on libraries and information professionals. An independent, non-governmental, not-for-profit organization, IFLA was founded in Scotland in 1927 and maintains headquarters at the National Library of the Netherlands in The Hague. IFLA sponsors the annual IFLA World Library and Information Congress, promoting universal and equitable access to information, ideas, and works of imagination for social, educational, cultural, democratic, and economic empowerment. IFLA also produces several publications, including IFLA Journal.IFLA closely partners with UNESCO, resulting in several jointly produced manifestos. IFLA is also a founding member of Blue Shield, which works to protect the world's cultural heritage when threatened by wars and natural disaster...
Advancing knowledge valorisation to enable transdisciplinary and cross-sector knowledge circulation is key to upgrading the European research landscape, resulting in economic, digital, ecological, and social benefits. That is why IP4OS advocates for a concerted Intellectual Property (IP) and Open Science (OS) approach: A complementary and supportive link between agile and fitting IP tools and the sharing of F indable, A ccessible, I nteroperable, and R e-usable (FAIR) research outputs (data, results, codes, etc.). IP4OS's overall goal is to empower multi-professionals and their organisations with awareness, knowledge, skills, and advocacy to valorise FAIR research outputs with effectively fitting IP tools . Firstly, IP4OS will publish a sound Synergy Framework - a Best Practice Manual mapping the relationship between IP and OS, providing recommendations for best practices. Secondly, IP4OS raises 50% more awareness in the Community of Practice (CoP) by informing about advocates, facts and figures on IP tools that support OS practices. Furthermore, IP4OS will reach 300 trained professionals and additionally (at least) 27 multipliers for multi-professional teams from all European countries via several easy-to-use and sustainable educational resources using the Synergy Framework and the Synergy Core Curriculum. Through all of IP4OS’s activities, the project builds a new CoP for IP management to support OS and addresses 15 specific professions in training who are actors, intermediaries, educators, and learners in the R&I landscape. With this approach, IP4OS is fully in line with the objectives and impact expectations of the call, namely (1) to identify the complementary synergy of IP management and OS practices by building on existing resources and practices as well as through a co-creative process of a Multi-Professional Community of Practice including experts and actors of the R&I landscape and (2) to anchor these findings in practice-oriented learning resources and bring them into practice through specialised courses to a broad community. With this process, IP4OS follows the call's core objective: the cross-over empowerment of multi-professionals and their organisations to enrich their IP practices with useful OS principles, thus emphasising value creation and utilisation in IP management and increasing European Research Area’s (ERA) benefits. IP4OS comprises a consortium with complementary expertise from IP management, knowledge transfer and education, research, libraries, and experts from small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) covering legal aspects and dissemination activities. The International Expert Advisory Board (IEAB) comprises renowned representatives from IP and industry, OS, reproducibility, training, knowledge transfer, and entrepreneurship to support the consortium. IP4OS can meet its ambitious goals due to its consortium’s and advisory board’s IP and OS experience, their already established crossover networks and infrastructures, and outstanding expertise.
En la enseñanza de los deportes de equipo, la pedagogía no lineal concibe al sujeto practicante como un sistema dinámico y complejo en constante interacción con su entorno. Esta interacción genera patrones de comportamiento que evolucionan en función de las condiciones del sistema. Cuando se introduce una variable externa, el equilibrio del sistema se altera, dando lugar a un nuevo estado. Esta variable externa, conocida como constreñimiento o restricción, puede ser manipulada estratégicamente para promover la aparición de determinados comportamientos tácticos. Desde esta perspectiva, el diseño de ejercicios debe basarse en cuatro principios pedagógicos fundamentales a saber: la complejidad táctica, la representatividad de la tarea, la exageración y el muestreo. Este escrito revisa estudios que analizan el comportamiento táctico desde la pedagogía no lineal y discute los procedimientos para diseñar ejercicios en el contexto del rugby. A partir de la evidencia revisada, se concluye de manera preliminar que la pedagogía no lineal representa una herramienta útil para el desarrollo de ejercicios que optimicen los comportamientos tácticos en el rugby.
Dans cet entretien approfondi avec Randa Al-Chidiac, nous explorons l’état actuel de la bibliothéconomie et de la documentation au Liban, ainsi que l’histoire riche et tumultueuse des bibliothèques libanaises. De la reconstruction post-guerre civile à l’impact des crises récentes, en passant par les défis et opportunités auxquels sont confrontés les bibliothécaires, ce texte offre un aperçu éclairant de la place des bibliothèques dans la société libanaise et de leur rôle essentiel en tant que gardiens du patrimoine culturel. L’article présente également l’Association libanaise des bibliothèques.
