RESUMENEl objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la efectividad del programa educativo “Cubilete” para la prevención de adicciones a Internet, móvil, juegos y apuestas online en estudiantes de Educación Secundaria y Bachillerato, diseñado por la Asociación Alujer. La muestra estuvo compuesta por un total de 637 alumnos de diferentes centros de la ciudad de Jaén (España). El instrumento para medir la eficacia del programa en una medida pre y postest fue el Cuestionario escolar de creencias, actitudes y usos de tecnologías, juegos virtuales y apuestas online (CCAU), construido ad hoc. La intervención tuvo una duración de 4 semanas y fue llevada a cabo durante las horas de tutoría. Los resultados muestran una reducción significativa en cuanto al uso de Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC), así como en la frecuencia en las que se utilizan las mismas. También se observó un aumento en el reconocimiento de adicción a las TIC una vez llevada a cabo la intervención, además de un mayor conocimiento de los padres del uso que hacen sus hijos de las mismas. Así mismo, la participación a juegos de azar y apuestas online se ve reducida considerablemente. Por último, hay un esclarecimiento en lo referido al significado del concepto adicción, aunque no significativamente del concepto juego patológico. Como conclusión se destaca el papel revelador que tiene este tipo de intervenciones sobre la población joven en lo referido al uso de las TIC y las adicciones a juegos de azar, virtuales y apuestas.ABSTRACTThe objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the educational program "Cubilete" for the prevention of addictions to Internet, mobile, games and online bets in students of Secondary Education and Baccalaureate, designed by the Alujer Association.

The intervention lasted 4 weeks and was carried out during the tutorial hours. The results show a significant reduction in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), as well as in the frequency in which they are used. There was also an increase in the recognition of addiction to ICT once the intervention was carried out, as well as a greater knowledge of the parents of the use made by their children. Likewise, participation in online gambling and betting is considerably reduced. Finally, there is clarification regarding the meaning of the concept of addiction, although not significantly of the concept of pathological gambling. In conclusion, the revealing role of this type of interventions on the young population in the use of ICT and addictions to gambling, virtual and betting is highlighted.

Local governments around the world are becoming aware of the importance of identifying and marketing their local assets to promote economic competitiveness. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have proven useful in supporting marketing activities in the private sector, but there is still little exploration on their use in the public sector. However, ICT effectiveness is constrained by institutional arrangements and the coordination of the marketing efforts with other government processes such as urban planning and strategy development. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the strategic scaffolding for ICT as a key component of a city’s marketing strategy using as an example the city of Puebla in Mexico. Although city marketing efforts and ICT use are still at its initial stages in the city, lessons from current efforts in Puebla are related to the key role of stakeholder networks, ICT interoperability, Geographic Information Systems, and government program continuity.

The City

Smart City is a fuzzy concept that has not been clearly defined either in theoretical studies or in empirical projects. Smart Cities are based on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), people (with their knowledge, habits, experiences, culture and behaviour) remain at the heart of concerns. In this chapter we are interested in the centrality of citizens (i.e. in the heart of the city) and of ICT in their environment. This leads us to take into account the tacit knowledge brought by citizens and the knowledge that may be divulged through ICT. We then present the concept of the Information and Knowledge System (IKS), and then we explain how it differs from that of the Digital Information System (DIS). We also point to the role of ICT in the DIS, and to their impact on improving the smartness of cities.

Introduction: Overpopulation in emergency services is a problem that can be observed worldwide, and although it has been addressed from different disciplines and perspectives, it still afflicts citizens who are subject to long waiting lists before being attended. Objective: The work here describes the design, development and the first validation of a Web and Mobile georeferenced crowd system for the city of Bogotá, Colombia, oriented to inform and empower the citizen on the population status of the emergency services found in the city. Materials and Method: In this document, we present the architecture, design, and features of the GALILEO System, with results regarding the first validation with citizens of Bogotá, to capture the acceptance and perceived impact of this type of solution in the context in which the System is proposed to function. Results and Discussion: Although GALILEO has not yet been massively implemented in the context for which it is proposed, the results presented here allow us to explore how Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can be proposed to solve complex social problems, particularly considering the role of the citizen as a source and receiver of information.

Role Of Information

If we want to convert our rural population into knowledge driven, progressive, self sufficient, self reliant, sustainable society, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) cannot be ignored. Timely availability information is considered as most important factor in Indian agriculture. At present ICT is the technology of this millennium. Transferring the developed technology to all end users is time-consuming and tiresome task and is often not completed due to paucity of resources and lack of manpower. In India, agriculture and rural development has gained significantly from ICT due to its widespread extension and adoption. In this era of internet, ICT is committed to provide real, timely accurate authentic information to the farmers and rural peoples.
