Since the demands of civic life are constantly increasing, there is an emergent call for citizens to actively engage in local and wide societal issues. To build the portrayal of the study participants' participatory citizenship attitudes, several research instruments were implemented in the educational community. A closer look at the data analyzed presents a portrait of low involvement of students, as far as participatory citizens is concerned, in the educational community they belong to. Recently, we have witnessed the emergence of technological innovations, the internet of things (IoT) being one of them. Although IoT is not considered to be a new technology, teachers are just scratching the surface on how to use it to enhance innovative and disruptive learning scenarios. This chapter looks at the development of participatory citizenship co-constructed guidelines, based on students' and teachers' perceptions of citizenship strategies.

Abstract Almost all drowning accidents in Japan are caused by rip currents. To reduce these accidents, a new technology that can detect rip currents and notify beachgoers by using the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) was proposed. However, studies on the effect of visualizing rip currents or considering the effect of optimism bias have not been conducted. This study investigates if visualization of rip currents might help in preventing drowning accidents, while considering the effect of optimism bias. The participants were 90 Japanese beachgoers. They were asked to answer questions based on their knowledge of the beach and rip currents, their optimism bias regarding rip currents, and awareness with or without visualization. The results of the analyses suggest that despite optimism bias, the visualization of rip currents increases the tendency of beachgoers to perceive and avoid rip currents. As described above, it found that by visualizing rip currents, beachgoers can avoid. Additionally, an understanding of rip currents is positively related to the intent to avoid rip currents with visualization. Therefore, it is necessary not only to enhance the avoidance tendency by visualizing rip currents, but also to further enhance knowledge of beachgoers to deepen the understanding of rip currents including the danger associated and methods to avoid them.

Over the past decade, cloud software has transformed numerous industries—from finance to logistics, marketing to manufacturing. The simplified aggregation of data, enabled by cloud computing, empowers individuals to glean insights and make data-driven decisions rapidly. In science, however, such a transformation has yet to emerge. The domain lacks centralized, machine-readable repositories of scientific data; this absence inhibits analytics and expedient decision-making. Recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) has served as a catalyst for digitizing and automating science. IoT enables the centralized collection and analysis of scientific data (e.g., instruments, sensors, and environments). Here, we discuss this new technology trend, its applications in laboratories and promise as a platform for improved efficiency, more innovative capabilities, and machine learning/artificial intelligence.
