Abstract The definition of green building is related to the design strategy and use of technology in buildings to create efficient energy utilization and minimize negative impacts on both the environment and the health of its users. User behavior is a significant determinant because to achieve green building parameters in the technical aspects alone is hard and, in the long term, must be supported by user behavior patterns with a responsive understanding of energy efficiency goals. This paper aims to conduct an initial study that focuses on the socio-cultural aspects of green building users’ behavior in Bali. This paper does not discuss quantitative matters on the green building parameters. Instead, it focuses on formulating a basic knowledge about the influence of user behavior with Balinese socio-cultural characteristics to become a reference at the building management level for the specific green building’s success. The method used in this paper is a qualitative descriptive method with literature review approach. The socio-cultural factor that affected Bali’s user behavior was influenced by green building principles’ technical issues and pro-environmental action in general. The more specific element is culture, local wisdom, and the religious value that leads to environmental awareness. The perspective of Bali’s green building user can be defined as the user’s local socio-culture views, the principles of green building perspectives and organization and management level perspective..

Technological developments have a major impact on user behavior. The rapidly evolving communication system and technology have provided numerous choices for people. The ever-shifting changes in the generation of communication networks have posed challenges for mobile network service providers to attract and retain customers. This study aims to prioritize the determinants of the adoption of mobile network service providers using the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT-2). In this study, data were collected from 660 mobile phone users in Haryana, India. A fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (F-AHP) was applied to arrange the priority or rank the factors based on the significance of the factors in explaining the adoption of mobile network service providers. Results of the study reveal that efforts expectancy is the highest-ranked and prioritized factor for the adoption of mobile network service providers followed by performance expectancy and facilitating conditions. However, social influence emerged as the least important factor. The present study provides theoretical implications for future researchers by synthesizing and prioritizing the important factors affecting technology acceptance. The practical implications offer a clearer insight to marketers for developing focused pragmatic strategies to retain customer loyalty. The study has considered only UTAUT-2 model constructs and used the F-AHP technique. Other factors may be considered in future studies. Other priority analysis techniques can also be used such as ISM and MICMAC analysis for further study. The research has been conducted in Haryana, India, and therefore, it needs to be tested in other areas/countries for generalizability. JEL Classification: O1, O2, O4

Technology-enhanced language learning (TELL) is moving ahead from the use of technology in language labs to the possibilities offered by technology in setting up new ways of communication and interactivity. The effectiveness of teaching seems to depend more on teachers' ability to motivate students by connecting to their interests and catering for different intelligences. Teachers' creativity and empathy with them will constitute essential skills for the design of tasks and projects that connect with digital native students' interests. Consideration of cultural aspects will be of essential importance in our globalized world, as learning a language must always take into account cultural variables. The objective of this chapter is to review the challenges that technology and interculturality pose to foreign language teachers and note some of the possible solutions that may facilitate efficient teaching. Politeness theory will be discussed as a theoretical framework providing resources for building social identity and doing relational work with different cultures.

With the advances in information systems and the Internet, universities have developed various e-learning platforms and blended courses that enable students to learn in a variety of ways. For system users, the acceptance and adoption of the system affects their learning processes and results. This research applied the United Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), proposed and validated by Venkatesh et al (2003), to explore factors that affect the acceptance of Moodle Reader, a system that supports English language learning. The results show that the constructs, performance expectancy and social influence have significant effects on behavioral intention, and facilitating conditions has a direct effect on user behavior and system usage. However, effort expectancy does not have an obvious effect on behavioral intention. Users intentions are dominant factors that consequently lead to gains in information systems performance. Furthermore, researchers classified students into different groups by gender, age and English learning experiences to study how individual differences affect adoption of the system. Multi-group analysis with PLS was used to examine the groups, and the results suggest that individual differences have no direct effect.

The Impact

Technology is entwined in 21st Century society, and within the lives of people across all ages. The Technology In Later Life (TILL) study is the first piece of work contributing to the impact, behavior, and perception of technology use, by adults aged ≥70 years, residing in rural and suburban areas. TILL is an international, multi-centred, multi-methods study investigating and conceptualizing how various technologies impact the lives of older adults; residing in urban and rural locations in the United Kingdom (UK) and Canada. This in-depth study recruited 37 participants via a multi-methods approach. Analysis of the findings ascertained two overarching themes: facilitators of technology use (i.e., sharing of information and feeling secure), and detractors of technology (i.e., feelings of apprehension of use). Proposed recommendations include promotion of technology from a strengths-based perspective focusing on positive opportunities technology to improve health and wellbeing, creating a peer support network to assist with learning of new technology, and the need to examine further how intergenerational relationships may be enhanced through the use of technology. The distinction of these themes narrates to the originality of this initial study and milieu of recruited participants, intersecting across the fields of gerontology, geography, social sciences, and gerontechnology.

<p>近年來，由諸多文獻中發現在建築設計過程中以建築性能分析軟體輔助之相關議題，然而無論在業界實務端或學院教育，對於在設計流程中導入建築性能分析軟體的可信度、時間點、意願、操作流程及相關背景知識仍未成熟。因此，本研究著重於整合國內實務端設計工作流程與重點模擬分析項目，提出一套學習的參考架構，並對設計者進行教育訓練，以消弭設計階段應用分析軟體的障礙。本研究以7名建築系學生為對象，進行一學期的教育訓練實驗，透過問卷和訪談進行綜合性分析以評估訓練成效。實驗結果發現教育訓練具有良好成效，參與者對建築性能分析軟體的知識有顯著提升。雖然個體間學習成效存在差異（如參與者對技術易用性的認知不同），但對技術的價值認知與採納意願則皆有顯著提升。然而，建築能耗分析軟體被發現訓練成效不彰，可能歸因為該能源相關專業本身之複雜性，訓練時間不足，個體學習態度等，導致不容易在短期課程中立即獲得良好學習成效，其在設計中的應用也受到限制。藉此，本研究最後亦提出對未來建築學院在理論與分析軟體操作的整合課程建議，以協助學習者能夠循序漸進，有效的應用輔助分析軟體回饋建築設計。</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><p>Since the sustainable issue has become a trend in recent years, the adoption of building performance analysis (BPA) tools in design process is not a news today. However, according to the literature review revealing the &ldquo;rule of thumb&rdquo; was still the measure when architects discuss the green building design. Also, the lack of background knowledge could always be noticed between the intention of sustainability and design works in either academic education or design practice. Therefore, this study was started on the BPA software training course of basic knowledge and application through the early design phase. To close the gap, a guided workflow of BPA tools was proposed for the designer&rsquo;s needs. The guided workflow was used to draft a pilot experiment course in architectural education with 7 trainees. In order to enhance students&rsquo; fundamental knowledge. The results of the experiment showed subjects have a significant improvement on the knowledge of BPA tools (p-value <0.05), nevertheless, energy simulation learning showed on the opposite. The results also indicated that the individual discrepancy might cause the effect on factor of &ldquo;Perceived Ease of Use&rdquo;. In conclusion, based on the results of experiment above, the grading course with learning objectives, training methods and contents have been modified and suggested.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

The Relationship

Eco-cities have witnessed rapid growth in these years worldwide. As the Eco-cities entering operation stage gradually, more and more researchers have found that users (who are living or working in the Eco-cities) satisfaction is one of the most important factors to determine the success or failure of Eco-cities. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the user demands to attract more citizens willing to live or work in the Eco-cities, which will make the development of Eco-cities more sustainable and solid. The recent researches on user demands investigation and analysis in the Eco-cities mainly focused on understanding the user need itself, yet lack of research on the relationship between the user demand and user satisfaction. This paper initially introduced the Kano model analysis method to the research field of user demands in Eco-city, to explore the relationship between the user demand and user satisfaction. After proposing user demands library in Eco-city (including Land use, Ecological environment, Green building, Energy utilization, etc.), the user demands classification and importance analysis methods of Eco-city were proposed based on Kano model. The questionnaire survey for users of two Eco-cities in China as case study was conducted, consisted of user demand items questionnaire based on the Kano model and a questionnaire on the importance of the user demand items. By utilizing the integration of quantitative analysis methods based on the Kano model and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, the final ranking of user demands importance was obtained. Comparing with the existing literatures in terms of user demands research for Eco-city, the user demands analysis method based on Kano model of this paper, is able to reveal the influence degree of user satisfaction towards the facilities and services provided in the Eco-city. The user demands analysis method can be used for other researchers worldwide to investigate and quantitively analyze user demands according to their local development situation and preference of Eco-city. The user demands analysis results obtained through this method, can benefit different stages of Eco-city.
