Using Data

This chapter analyses local government’s response to the pressure to modernise its structures through its use of Information Communication Technologies (ICT) to execute its broad range of tasks. The chapter begins by discussing Chadwick and May’s (2003) three basic models of e-government; managerial, consultative and participatory. Using data collected from an analysis of 658 local government websites in Australia together with existing survey research the chapter then analyses the extent to which local government sites fit into the three models. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the issues and problems faced by local government in its attempt to develop e-governance as both an extension of administrative as well as democratic functions.

The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology for the development of competence in the design and modeling of clothing for university students through the use of information and communication technologies, its introduction into the educational process and increase the effectiveness of education. This article discusses the issues of improving students' knowledge and skills, interest in the learning process and the ability to apply their knowledge in practice in the future, using modern information and communication technology tools in the training of design professionals. Emphasis will be placed on developing and implementing a new teaching method aimed at enhancing the competence of design students in designing and modeling clothing. The role and perspectives of teachers are very important and they are highlighted as key participants in the process. The data show that, the using authoring technology of SCADEduWeb and information communication technologies in the educational process on the basis of interactive teaching methods, that allow students of professional education to effectively teach the design and modeling of clothing through the design of innovative digital tools, modeling creative and reflexive approaches helps to increase the effectiveness of education and facilitates the organization of the learning process. In particular, it shows that the contribution of information communication technologies to the improvement of the educational process in educational institutions, where information communication technologies are an innovative factor. Authoring technology of SCADEduWeb allows each student to achieve good results through independent, creative thinking at each stage of mastering the subject "Design and modeling of sewing objects". Achieving this high level will lead the educational institution not only to modernize the technological tools, but also to change the teaching models. In order to achieve development, we need to master digital knowledge and modern information technologies, use new teaching methods. This allows us to take the shortest path. Indeed, the deep penetration of information technology into all parts of the world today is creating new opportunities.

The article is devoted to the problem of educational communications development as a sphere of implementation of modern information-communication technologies in the higher education system. The purpose of the article is to present the structure and functions of educational communications aimed at the development of personal potential and self-realization of students. Methodology. The study is based on the methodology of personal and communicative-informational approaches in education, psychological-pedagogical provisions on the structure of communication, the leading role of learning activity, didactic principles of building an educational-informational environment. In theoretical terms, the study is based on the idea of the indirect implementation of ICT in education through the development of educational communications. The developing structure of educational communications, including didactic, informational-gnostic, interactive, psychological, attractive-motivational, value-semantic components, is presented. The possibilities of developing personal potential in educational communications are considered. The author’s developmental model of ICT functions is presented, which includes clusters of actual and latent functions aimed at the formation of information-educational space for the development of students’ personal potential. In conclusion, a inference was made about the prospects of the indirect introduction of modern ICT as tools for the development and functioning of various educational communications. At the same time, it is essential that these communications perform psychological and pedagogical tasks and functions.

Sociocultural Background

Abstract Along with mastery of the grammar and vocabulary of a given language, contemporary students are also expected to acquire intercultural communicative competence (ICC), i.e., the ability to use the language efficiently with regard to the sociocultural background of the communicative situation. This requirement should also be reflected in FL course-books, which are considered to be fundamental didactic tools in FL education, even in an era of information communication technologies. Therefore, the aim of the present paper is to report the results of the research focused on the investigation of intercultural component in the New Opportunities Pre-Intermediate and Intermediate course-book packages. To validate the findings of the content analysis, as the main research method, the method of triangulation was used, i.e., the results of the course-book package analyses were compared with those of observation and interview analyses. The findings of the research revealed that in the investigated course-book packages only some aspects of the intercultural component could be considered relevant because they were suitably treated.

Global Indicators

In an environment of globalisation and rapidly expanding deployment of interactive digital communication, this paper takes a complex systems approach to the mapping of large scale global indicators onto electronic flows of information and intent. It argues that democracy is being transformed by online technologies, and that governments which embrace and encourage citizen inputs and monitoring of public information can establish vital groundwork for more effective forms of global governance. Growing awareness of issues that transcend jurisdictions makes such transformations both necessary and increasingly acceptable. The prism for this bird’s eye view is the Australian Government’s evolution in its uses of information communication technologies (ICTs) for citizen engagement.
