This chapter reviews the literature on using movies/films for teaching public administration. Such a review is necessary due to the changing demographics of both the student body and the instructors, which necessitates the use of new pedagogical methods and the ubiquitous accessibility of the teaching materials via mobile computers on the internet. To this end, the chapter first reviews the literature then provides a few detailed specific examples of using movies/movie clips for instructional purposes in teaching public administration. Then, a general list of movies that can be used in public administration teaching is provided with a reference to the concepts that can be showcased by these films. Third, limitations of the existing literature on teaching public administration with movies are presented. And finally, areas for further research are discussed.

The Impact

In this article we focus on identifying the specificity of digital transformation within the public sector. The aim of the article is to present the main mechanisms resulting from the introduction of digital innovations that have changed the functioning of the public sector. Starting from a discussion on the technological requirements of digital transformation, we briefly characterise the use of computers and the Internet in public administration, resulting in the development of e-services and administration. The main part of the article is devoted to discussing the specificity of the implementation of the new digital technologies in public administration, focusing mainly on artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies. Our thesis is that the impact of innovative digital technologies on the operation standards and structure of public administration should be analysed through the prism of interrelated mechanisms of datafication and platformisation, characteristic for the digital economy. The adopted methodology, which is based on an analysis of the subject literature and an analysis of new technology implementations in public administration in EU countries, indicates the pilot, random and non-transformational nature of these implementations, partly due to the lack of well-established methodologies to study and assess the maturity of digital transformation within the public sector.

The World Wide Web is used by millions of people everyday for various purposes including email, reading news, downloading music, online shopping or simply accessing information about anything. Using a standard web browser, the user can access information stored on Web servers situated anywhere on the globe. This gives the illusion that all this information is situated locally on the user’s computer. In reality, the Web represents a huge distributed system that appears as a single resource to the user available at the click of a button. This paper gives an overview of distributed systems in current IT sector. Distributed systems are everywhere. The internet enable users throughout the world to access its services wherever they may be located [1]. Each organization manages an intranet, which provides local services for local users and generally provides services to other users in the internet. Small distributed systems can be constructed from mobile computers and other small computational devices that are attached to a wireless network.

There is no doubt that one of the most obvious and far-reaching derivations of the Internet and global interconnection through the network is the enormous volume of information to which we have access. It is in this context that the so-called "Big Data" appears, exposing us to great changes in the different areas of our lives, proposing scenarios that point to open governments, transparency and greater closeness to citizens. However, there are many challenges that this new reality poses on Public Administration and there appears not to be unique strategies or models for its implementation. The aim of this work is to review some of the most important concepts that are involved in this era of Big Data in the public sector.

Institutions of higher learning in the United States are facing challenges associated with changing demographics. Latino students are making up an increasing portion of the incoming student body than previously.  The unique cultural characteristics of Latino students will require adaptations to the teaching techniques typically used in American business schools.  The unique environment in business schools provides opportunities and challenges for Latino students and their instructors.  We use Hofstede’s cultural classifications in order to map the characteristics of Latino students and suggest six business teaching suggestions designed to increase the learning outcomes for the Latino students.
