Improving the ability of predictive thinking is conducive in seeking the future and mastering initiative. In order to improve the ability of predictive thinking, it is necessary to strengthen the spirit of active exploration to give full play to people’s subjective initiative. Scientific methodology is the basis for improving this ability. It is necessary to learn and apply dialectical materialist methodology and to master advanced methods in specific subject areas. A deep and broad knowledge system is the fundamental for the development of predictive thinking, hence a deep professional knowledge system and a broad multifield knowledge reserve must be formed. The development of science and technology provides traction in discovering new forecasting directions, more advanced tools for forecasting research, and philosophical epistemological guidance for forecasting. Therefore, there is a need to pay great attention to the development of science and technology.

Talking STS is a collection of interviews and accompanying reflections on the origins, the present and the future of the field referred to as Science and Technology Studies or Science, Technology and Society (STS). The volume assembles the thoughts and recollections of some of the leading figures in the making of this field. The occasion for producing the collection has been the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of Edinburgh’s Science Studies Unit (SSU). The Unit’s place in the history of STS is consequently a recurring theme of the volume. However, the interviews assembled here have a broader purpose – to present interviewees’ situated and idiosyncratic experiences and perspectives on STS, going beyond the contributions made to it by any one individual, department or institution. Both individually and collectively, these conversations provide autobiographically informed insights on STS. Together with the reflections, they prompt further discussion, reflection and questioning about this constantly evolving field.

Purpose This paper aims to provide lessons from the emergence of the sharing economy after the 2008 recession and helps managers prepare more effectively for recessions in the future. Design/methodology/approach In this conceptual paper, the authors build on research on the sharing economy and study the best practices contributing to the sharing economy’s emergence and growth after the 2008 recession. The authors identify the key characteristics of this new economic sector and share lessons that can be used by other companies. Findings The authors recommend five major takeaways: seeking a more flexible supply; actively watching the trends; leveraging customers like employees; using advanced data science and technology like the sharing economy companies; and proactively avoiding panicked responses. This will help companies succeed during recessionary times – and the boom times that follow. Originality/value This is the first paper that, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, investigates the interplay between the sharing economy and recession and highlights practical lessons.

From as far back as the 1980s, many researchers have cited the importance of critical thinking in the citizens of modern societies. Given this importance, the merits of including critical thinking as a major objective at various levels of the education system and in different subject areas of the school curriculum have been extensively argued. This chapter focuses on science and technology curricula and rationalizes the need for changes both in the development as well as the implementation of the curriculum to facilitate the promotion of critical thinking skills in students. There is also an extensive discussion of particular instructional approaches and strategies needed to facilitate this.

As this critical level of the taxonomy, technology integration provides for “teaching with technology.” In the previous chapter, infused technologies centered on learning. At level 5.0, the focus is on “creating new technology-based materials by combining various technologies to teach.” Within an effective educational setting, technology becomes an enabling tool for teaching and takes many forms at this level of the taxonomy. A prime function of integrated technologies is to provide learners with knowledge of specific subject areas. Traditionally, students learn from technologies used as delivery tools to communicate messages just as they learn from teachers. But at this level of the taxonomy, learners will create “new technology-based materials, combining otherwise disparate technologies to teach.”

Artificial intelligence is a branch of science and technology that has been used effectively over the decades in various fields, and now it has become an indispensable part of organizational practices as it is one of the leading technologies in the current era, and now there is an emerging trend of applying AI technologies within the businesses. The central necessity of human resource management is also majorly based on technological approaches as it became a potential need for any human resources department to perform its role in the development of the whole organization. Technologies based on AI are and will be the smart system of the future and it's also changing the processes of human resource management by making it more dependent on advanced technologies. Through the chapter, the researcher will get to know the artificial technologies being practiced in HR practices and explore the probable and potential of technicality of AI in HRM and also the challenges associated with AI in HRM and its future possibilities.
