A. P., Ham, J., de Kort, Y. A. W., & Midden, C. J. H. Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands © Copyright 2011. Copyright held by respective authors On behalf of the Environmental Psychology Division of the German Association of Psychology, the 9th Biennial International Conference on Environmental Psychology is organized by the Human- Technology Interaction (HTI) group of the School of Innovation Sciences of the Eindhoven University of Technology. The HTI group is internationally acclaimed for perception research, and has become established as a major centre of excellence in human-technology interaction research. Bringing together psychological and engineering expertise, its central mission is investigating and optimizing interactions between people, systems, and environments, in the service of a socially and ecologically sustainable society. Foreword We are happy and proud to present to you Environment 2.0, the 9th biennial conference on environmental psychology. Thanks to all your contributions we have been able to compose a highly attractive program, promising an exciting conference. We have been overwhelmed by the interest our call raised receiving over 250 submissions for oral presentations, a new record. This splendid harvest shows the strength and vitality of the field of environmental psychology and the fast growing significance of the biennial conferences, which have developed into a major meeting place for researchers from all over the world. We feel honored that we can welcome over 325 participants from more than 25 different countries. The great interest shown also brought along some limitations. Unavoidably the review committee was forced to be more selective than in previous meetings. We had to make some difficult decisions. Fortunately the judgments of many independent reviewers helped us a lot. We are very grateful for their thoughtful contributions. This year's special conference theme is Environment2.0. The call for papers was centered around the question whether we as environmental psychologists are sufficiently aware of the fact that a layer of information and communication technology is augmenting our physical and social worlds. Moreover, increasingly advanced communication and interaction technologies are offering us new ways to investigate and change person-environment interaction. We were happy to see quite a number of submissions around this topic. The keynote lecture of prof Wijnand IJsselsteijn is also directly related to this theme. The keynote by prof Robert Cialdini relates to the theme of behaviour change, one of the core topics in environmental psychology today. With our third keynote lecture, by prof Eus van Someren we wanted to open yet another new perspective on how environment, human behaviour, and human wellbeing are interconnected. On behalf of the organizing committee, I welcome you to Eindhoven and wish you a most stimulating, inspiring and memorable conference, Cees Midden Conference Chair Organizing committee: Antal Haans, Jaap Ham, Yvonne de Kort, Ellen de Bree Think local, act global?

  • Eurovision Song Contest: La Musica Che Unisce L'europa... E Non Solo!
    Eurovision Song Contest: la musica che unisce l'Europa... e non solo! C'è chi la definisce la "Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai è una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2018 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area, ma che nel 2015 fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che poi a partire dal 2016 è stata ufficialmente invitata dall’organizzazione. Con 43 paesi in concorso, viene eguagliato il numero di artisti in gara nelle edizioni di Belgrado 2008 e Düsseldorf 2011: record assoluto L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano ovvero Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv.

  • Wall of Fame Ebook.Pdf
    Wall of Fame As public education declined and many Americans despaired of their children’s futures, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jonathan Freedman volunteered as a writing mentor in some of California’s toughest inner-city schools. He discovered a program called AVID that gave him hope. In this work of creative nonfiction, Mr. Freedman interweaves the lives of AVID’s founder, Mary Catherine Swanson, and six of her original AVID students over a 20-year period, from 1980 to 2000. With powerful personalities, explosive conflicts, and compelling action, Wall of Fame portrays the dramatic story of how one teacher in one classroom created a pragmatic program that has propelled thousands of students to college. This story of determination, courage, and hope inspires a new generation of teachers, students, and parents to fight for change from the bottom up. “Jonathan Freedman tells a moving and inspirational story of real reform in education—the ‘radical’ remedy of believing in kids of every background and challenging them to reach their potential.” —Robert J. Caldwell, Editor San Diego Union Tribune’s “Insight” section “If you are skeptical about all school-reform efforts, read Wall of Fame. It is a compelling story that educators throughout the nation need to hear. It describes AVID and its founder, Mary Catherine Swanson, and how a program to help disadvantaged students prepare for college is helping reform secondary schools across America. At a time when interest and concern about schools is at an all-time high, AVID is a great success story that demonstrates thoughtful school reform can make a difference for kids.” —Gary K.
