Este manual está dirigido a estudiantes de comunicación y de educación de grado y posgrado. El eje central de toda la obra es el novedoso concepto de Factor R-elacional, atendiendo al nuevo modelo que los autores han bautizado como «TRIC» (Tecnologías de la Relación, Información y Comunicación), que dibuja un nuevo escenario de contextos y mediaciones en la comunicación digital y móvil. Este libro contiene todas las partes esenciales para entender la comunicación digital: fundamentos, principios, interactuantes, competencias, mediaciones e inteRmetodología.Desde una perspectiva educomunicativa, los autores proponen métodos innovadores para llevar a cabo prácticas de aprendizaje digital en entornos presenciales, semipresenciales y virtuales. Como aportación final, se entrevista a seis reconoidos expertos en educación mediática y competencia digital para abordar desde su mirada diferentes temas planteados en el libro, de forma dialógica y abierta a la reflexión. También se brinda a los lectores la posibilidad de participar e interactuar en un laboratorio de experiencias TRIC.

Being Human is more than a book; it is an answer to the great question of what makes us human being. Demonstrates how the laws of Nature manage the functioning of the entire body and how diet, feelings, and even human emotions are also governed by these laws. It explains how human behavior is governed by universal laws that are immutable and eternal and how if the persons fails to obey this laws, will be destroyed. The author explains with crystal clear the origin of human problems such as hate, resentment, obesity, depression, anxiety, stress and others that are governed by the laws and how to handle them. Upon reading Being Human, you will have knowledge that will significantly improve your quality of life, well-being and inner peace. Over 400 years ago Descartes said the highest degree of wisdom is the knowledge of all the laws of Nature. The author amplifies this concept affirming that the purpose of human life is to live in harmony with the laws of Nature. The author considers that all activities of a human being in her life have the purpose of her survival, comfort, altruism and longevity. This book is the doorway to the answers the reader has been awaiting.

This book · includes contributions from a diverse, international range of scholars and practitioners and this volume examines the ways laboratories of all kinds contribute to digital research and pedagogy. · Acknowledging that they are emerging amid varied cultural and scientific traditions, the volume considers how they lead to the specification of digital humanities and how a locally situated knowledge production is embedded in the global infrastructure system. · consolidates the discussion on the role of the laboratory in DH and brings digital humanists into the interdisciplinary debate concerning the notion of a laboratory as a critical site in the generation of experimental knowledge. Positioning the discussion in relation to ongoing debates in DH, the volume argues that laboratory studies are in an excellent position to capitalize on the theories and knowledge developed in the DH field and open up new research inquiries. · clearly demonstrates that the laboratory is a key site for theoretical and political analyses of digital humanities and will thus be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners engaged in the study of DH, culture, media, heritage and infrastructure.

A fresh look at a “robot-proof” education in the new age of generative AI. In 2017, Robot-Proof, the first edition, foresaw the advent of the AI economy and called for a new model of higher education designed to help human beings flourish alongside smart machines. That economy has arrived. Creative tasks that, seven years ago, seemed resistant to automation can now be performed with a simple prompt. As a result, we must now learn not only to be conversant with these technologies, but also to comprehend and deploy their outputs. In this revised and updated edition, Joseph Aoun rethinks the university’s mission for a world transformed by AI, advocating for the lifelong endeavor of a “robot-proof” education. Aoun puts forth a framework for a new curriculum, humanics, which integrates technological, data, and human literacies in an experiential setting, and he renews the call for universities to embrace lifelong learning through a social compact with government, employers, and learners themselves. Drawing on the latest developments and debates around generative AI, Robot-Proof is a blueprint for the university as a force for human reinvention in an era of technological change—an era in which we must constantly renegotiate the shifting boundaries between artificial intelligence and the capacities that remain uniquely human.

A wide-ranging examination of the ways digital technologies are impacting Cuba’s Revolutionary project The triumph of the Cuban Revolution gave the Communist Party a monopoly over both politics and the mass media. However, with the subsequent global proliferation of new information and communication technologies, Cuban citizens have become active participants in the worldwide digital revolution. While the Cuban internet has long been characterized by censorship, high costs, slow speeds, and limited access, this volume argues that since 2013, technological developments have allowed for a fundamental reconfiguration of the cultural, economic, social, and political spheres of the Revolutionary project.  The essays in this volume cover various transformations within this new digital revolution, examining both government-enabled paid public web access and creative workarounds that Cubans have designed to independently produce, distribute, and access digital content. Contributors trace how media ventures, entrepreneurship, online marketing, journalism, and cultural e-zines have been developing on the island alongside global technological and geopolitical changes.  As Cuba continues to expand internet access and as citizens challenge state policies on the speed, breadth, and freedom of that access, Cuba’s Digital Revolution provides a fascinating example of the impact of technology in authoritarian states and transitional democracies. While the streets of Cuba may still belong to Castro’s Revolution, this volume argues that it is still unclear to whom Cuban cyberspace belongs.

This book aims to contribute to the discussion about the implications of fuzzy logic, neural networks, digital era, and other intelligent techniques on organizations. This book will be very useful for academic researchers and postgraduate students aiming to introduce themselves to the field of quantitative techniques for overcoming uncertain environments and developing models to make decisions. Developments in other theories and socioeconomic and computational changes have shed light on the importance of fuzzy applications in social sciences. The treatment of uncertainty in the economic and business analysis is fundamental and requires instruments compatible with the uncertain environment of economics and business, because most of the traditional models have been overtaken by this reality when trying to make decisions with uncertain information. In the face of information technology, digitization, and uncertainty, organizations confront new opportunities and challenges. In order to take advantage of these opportunities and overcome current and future challenges, it is needed to understand the evolution of these phenomenon.

Recently, the digital architectures of interaction have also become, more than a new information architecture, a new ecology of dialogue and participation. In addition to the new forms of debate and interaction which are expressed far beyond the dynamics of modern public opinion, the digital networks have opened spaces of experimentation for new decision-making collaborative practices. In several areas, the creation of platforms and architectures of debate and deliberations is putting new questions about the technological possibility of overcoming the representative democracy. Finally, this new digital ecology has been changing social actions in everyday life. The book analyzes these phenomena both through a theoretical reflection (first part) and by some case studies (second part), as the result of the activities promoted by the Net-Activism International Research Network based on Atopos Lab in Universidade de São Paulo. At the Network join: Università degli Studi “Roma Tre”, Universidade Lusófona do Porto, Université de Lille 2, Fondation Maison des Sciences de l’Homme, Paris.
