It still holds true: information is not always the answer. Information is often part of the problem. While the main goal of information in the business place is to – able adequate decisions and actions, it can also lead to numerous negative effects: it can confuse, block creativity, or it can lead to hectic activism, stress and fatigue. Information can distract and divert attention, and it may even delay important – cisions – the paralysis by analysis. Strategies to avoid these dysfunctional effects of information can be divided into sender-based strategies and receiver-based strategies. In my previous research, I have looked at receiver-based strategies that outline effective ways of dealing with information overload. This book, by c- trast, analyzes sender-based strategies that aim at making content actionable by increasing its information quality. By offering relevant and sound information in a convenient and reliable manner, managers and information providers ranging from analysts to CEOs can not only optimize communication, they can also improve their reputation, employee satisfaction and customer loyalty. In a time where – formation has become a commodity or even a nuisance, this is a valuable strategy. The main premise of this book is consequently that information quality has – ready become a (if not the) decisive factor of the information economy. Many companies, however, are not managing this factor systematically.

Statistical Analysis of Observations of Increasing Dimension


Free Download Statistical Analysis of Observations of Increasing Dimension By Vyacheslav L. Girko (auth.)
1995 | 290 Pages | ISBN: 9048144132 | PDF | 13 MB
Statistical Analysis of Observations of IncreasingDimension is devoted to the investigation of the limit distribution of the empirical generalized variance, covariance matrices, their eigenvalues and solutions of the system of linear algebraic equations with random coefficients, which are an important function of observations in multidimensional statistical analysis. A general statistical analysis is developed in which observed random vectors may not have density and their components have an arbitrary dependence structure. The methods of this theory have very important advantages in comparison with existing methods of statistical processing. The results have applications in nuclear and statistical physics, multivariate statistical analysis in the theory of the stability of solutions of stochastic differential equations, in control theory of linear stochastic systems, in linear stochastic programming, in the theory of experiment planning.

Beyond the Traditional Essay Increasing Student Agency in a Diverse Classroom with Nondisposable Assignments


Free Download Melissa Ryan, "Beyond the Traditional Essay: Increasing Student Agency in a Diverse Classroom with Nondisposable Assignments "
English | ISBN: 1648894089 | 2022 | 142 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This volume offers a range of responses to the problem of "disposable assignments," essays written just for a grade and then thrown away. The scholars collected here explore how renewable assignments can contribute to public knowledge, eliciting student work that is shared across networks of learning, that does something, that transcends the teacher’s grade. Although there is significant interest in such innovative teaching practices, particularly in this year of pedagogical experimentation, there are few resources for teachers that collect in one place both scholarly context and practical advice for implementing renewable assignments in the classroom. The essays in this volume range widely, from demonstrating how digital tools engage and empower reluctant learners, to raising theoretical questions around intellectual property, to measuring the success of renewable assignments through outcomes assessment.

While findings highlighted a number of current challenges with the reuse option, one conclusion is that ADL can foster more reuse by taking a proactive approach in supporting training development organizations that are attempting to implement a reuse strategy.
