Si bien es cierto este tipo de contaminación no solo afecta a un medio específico, si no que afecta a todos los ecosistemas existentes en el planeta y por consiguiente perjudica a las diversas especies que en ellos habitan, incluyendo al ser humano, quien es el principal causante de dicha catástrofe ambiental. Sin embargo, esto no quiere decir que el hombre solo daña al planeta ya que existen personas que aprovechan sus conocimientos para ayudar a restaurar un poco el daño ocasionado por otros individuos, creando diversos prototipos para la reducción, y reutilización de este contaminante llamada plástico.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 32 pp. Spanisch.

Neuware -Ensayo del año 2019 en eltema Medios / Comunicación - Multimedia, internet, nuevas tecnologías, Instituto Tecnológico Superior de Tierra Blanca, Materia: Primero, Idioma: Español, Resumen: Las viejas generaciones han implantado un sistema mundial de comunicación llamado Internet, por tal, la necesidad de desarrollar nueva tecnología para que las redes continúen mejorando en todo aspecto tal como su infraestructura y su lógica de funcionamiento. Ha ocurrido un cambio drástico cambiando de tubos de vacío hasta la iniciativa de antenas Roaming y WLAN, haciendo posible que el internet empezó a tener un alto impacto en la economía de los países y en la sociedad actual y a futuro así desarrollando una dependencia total del internet con sus funcionalidades como lo son en la comunicación de países, bancos, mercados mundiales y comunidad en general. Para que funcione actualmente Internet es necesario que las empresas inviertan mucho dinero en infraestructura de cables a través del mar trasatlántico y uso de satélites costosos que sus señales son recibidas por antenas de difícil colocación dándole mantenimiento permanentemente y con ciertos problemas comunes que afectan al cliente final. Por ello se han creado alternativas a lo que ya se le considera clásico en las redes, tomando opciones como el LIFI, antenas especializadas en acceso a internet y en nuevas invenciones que hacen que el acceso a internet sea posible para cada persona y hasta en cualquier lugar remoto de los países. Se pretende que los costos de tener una red propia disminuyan y sea de fácil adquisición ya que en México es problemático tener este servicio básico.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 32 pp. Spanisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper del año 2020 en eltema Historia de Europa - Posguerra en Europa, Nota: 1,0, Universidad de Zaragoza (Facultad de Filosofía y Letras), Materia: Historia de las Mujeres en la España Contemporánea, Idioma: Español, Resumen: Este ensayo analiza los discursos y los intereses respectivos de las empresas alemanas y del gobierno franquista. Tal enfoque permite no solo mirar la oferta en el país de origen, sino también examinar la demanda en el país receptor. Eso posibilita destacar la conflictividad de intereses. Además, este análisis está marcado por una perspectiva de género y subraya las ¿diferencias entre hombres y mujeres con respecto a la movilidad, al salario y los sectores de ocupación distintos¿. Así, la migración es una ¿oportunidad privilegiada para reflexionar sobre las modalidades y procesos del cambio social y sobre el papel de los actores sociales en los mismos¿. Así, las mujeres eran dueñas de sus ¿propias trayectorias y las de sus familias¿.Para contestar a la cuestión, el ensayo se divide en dos partes principales. En primer lugar, el ensayo analiza la alta demanda de las empresas alemanas que causó la inmigración de mujeres españolas hacia la RFA. En segundo lugar, el ensayo cambia la perspectiva al examinar las preocupaciones y restricciones del gobierno franquista en cuanto a la emigración de mujeres. Por último, la conclusión reúne los conocimientos y matiza la interacción entre demanda y oferta, marcada tanto por ideas de género como por intereses económicos.Entre la firma del ¿Acuerdo entre el Gobierno del Estado Español y el Gobierno de la República Federal de Alemania sobre migración, contratación y colocación de trabajadores españoles en la República Federal de Alemaniä el 29 de abril de 1960 y el parón de la inmigración de trabajadores migrantes a la República Federal de Alemania (RFA) en 1973, más de 600.000 trabajadores españoles, entre ellos más de 150.000 mujeres, emigraron hacia la RFA. Las intenciones de las emigrantes fueron numerosas y muy diversas, pero destacó la motivación de beneficiarse de los salarios tres veces más altos de la RFA.El gobierno franquista de España, deseando una emigración de hombres jóvenes sin cualificación y que vivían en los territorios subdesarrollados (Andalucía, Murcia, Galicia, Extremadura, entre otros), vio la emigración masiva de mujeres con escepticismo. Las autoridades temían la pérdida de los valores morales de las mujeres y preferían que las españolas se quedaran en España para que hubiera suficientes esposas y madres potenciales. En cambio, las empresas alemanas buscaron trabajadoras en el sur de Europa adrede, porque a estas mujeres les podían pagar un salario sistemáticamente más bajo.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 28 pp. Spanisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Einsendeaufgabe aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Gesundheit - Sport - Bewegungs- und Trainingslehre, Note: 1,7, Deutsche Hochschule für Prävention und Gesundheitsmanagement GmbH, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Einsendeaufgabe aus dem Studiengang Fitnesstraining befasst sich mit einer ausdauerorientierten Trainingsplanung.Nachdem die Probandin sich auf einen Triathlon vorbereiten möchte, möchte sie dementsprechend ihre Ausdauerleistung im Rad fahren und Laufen verbessern, sowie ihren Körperfettanteil senken um weniger Zusatzgewicht zu tragen. Ihr Ziel ist es innerhalb von sechs Monaten, bis zum Start des Triathlons, 5 Kilometer in maximal 30 Minuten zu laufen, 5 Kilometer Fahrrad in maximal 15 Minuten zu fahren und ihren Körperfettanteil um 2% zu senken. Das Ziel 5 Kilometer in maximal 30 Minuten zu laufen ist realistisch in 6 Monaten zu erreichen, da sie schon trainiert ist und keine Anfängerin im Ausdauertraining. Auch 5 Kilometer Radfahren in maximal 15 Minuten ist in sechs Monaten zu schaffen, sie fährt seit mehreren Jahren täglich 60 Minuten Fahrrad und hat dementsprechend schon eine gute Ausdauer. 2% Körperfett sind in 6 Monaten ebenfalls realistisch, vor allem da sie nun, um sich auf den Triathlon vorzubereiten, ein höheres Trainingspensum hat wodurch sie mehr Kalorien verbrennt. Somit wird sie sich in ihren Ausdauerleistungen verbessern und gleichzeitig ihr Ziel der Körperfettreduktion erreichen. Eine Verbesserung der Leistungen im Schwimmen ist nicht vonnöten, da sie schon seit vielen Jahren viermal pro Woche das Schwimmtraining besucht und auch regelmäßig an Wettkämpfen teilnimmt.

Neuware -Essay aus dem Fachbereich Kulturwissenschaften - Allgemeines und Begriffe, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Schönheitssinn ist dem Menschen angeboren, wenn auch in unterschiedlichem Maße. Also ist er ein Ergebnis der Evolution. Er muß seinen frühesten Trägern einen Fortpflanzungsvorteil gewährt haben. Der Essay geht (nach Geoffrey F. Miller) von der altsteinzeitlichen Rangordnung innerhalb der menschlichen Populationen aus und stellt die Entwicklung von animalischen zu mentalen Rangmerkmalen dar. Der Sinn für Schönheit gewann maßgebliche Bedeutung, weil Schönheit ein komplexes Phänomen ist und hoher mentaler Fähigkeiten zur Wahrnehmung bedarf. So wurde der Schönheitssinn und dementsprechend die ästhetische Ausstattung zum Merkmal einer Führungselite.

Neuware -Essay aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Sprachwissenschaft / Sprachforschung (fachübergreifend), Note: 1,0, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In diesem Essay geht es um die Verwendung einer einheitlichen Sprache als gemeinsame Kommunikationsbasis. Dies wird hier anhand des Tok Pisin, einer Kreol- oder auch Pidginsprache in Papua-Neuguinea erläutert.In Papua-Neuguinea gibt es mehr als 750 Stämme, von welchen jeder seine eigene, individuelle Sprache spricht. Vor der Ankunft westlicher Seefahrernationen in den 1880er Jahren war die Verständigung unter den Stämmen daher unmöglich, weshalb Kreolsprachen, auch Pidgin genannt, wie die Sprache Tok Pisin eingeführt wurden, wodurch sich die Stämme auch untereinander verständigen konnten. Hieraus erhoffte man sich unter anderem einen Rückgang von Stammeskonflikten aufgrund von Sprachbarrieren und Verständigungskonflikten.

Neuware -Submitted Assignment from the year 2018 in the subject Computer Science - Programming, grade: HD, Monash University Melbourne, language: English, abstract: Triage App is a mobile application that helps nurse/paramedics to sort patients based on their need for immediate treatment according to certain guidelines. Using the app, users can simply report their current patients' conditions as the app label their Triage status and store them to the database. For this functionality, we assumed that the system already has patient details that can be retrieved from the unique patient ID number. The app also allows users to search and view details of their patients along with the visualization of their current locations on Triage App's map.Accordingly, an iOS digital prototype that provides a better idea of how the product will look like has been created. The purpose of this report is to provide an explanatory on the design guidelines that we have followed in creating Triage App user interface prototype. This is highlighted on our designed screens that reflect Triage App main features, namely Sign-up/Sign-in, User Profile, Edit User Profile, SIEVE Triage, Search by a Patient, Multicriteria Search, Reports and Maps.On each of these screens a minimum of four guidelines for user interface design that mainly stated by Norman (2013) and Nielsen (1995) are described. This includes guidelines for navigation, form, button, colour, feedback, layout, error messages and correction, so that discoverability and visibility can be achieved. By following these guidelines, the Triage App is expected to deliver its functionalities for potential users in a more effective way.Based on our analysis on such guidelines, design principles that cover feedback inclusion such as error message or system loading message, are mostly appropriate for mobile form design. Therefore, the guidelines were applied in our UI design for sign in/sign up, user profile, search and map forms. Another design guideline principle that prominently applied and implemented in our design is the aesthetic and minimalist design as suggested by Nielsen (1995) in his heuristic principles for system usability.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 28 pp. Englisch.

Topics such as identity, setting, character development, and deceit are addressed.Lila, Lila is a 2004 novel written by Martin Suter. Suter, who was born in 1948 in Zürich, worked as a copywriter and wrote screenplays and features for various magazines. He was noted for his weekly magazine column ¿Business Class¿ in which he satirized the life of upper management in short-story form.

Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Sociology - Individual, Groups, Society, grade: 1st, King`s College London, course: Global Health and Social Medicine, language: English, abstract: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is defined by the DSM as a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by inattention and hyperactivity that impairs an individual's daily function. ADHD diagnoses in both children and adults have been drastically increasing in the western world in the past two decades, and subsequently the use of stimulant medications to treat ADHD has also drastically increased. This paper primarily relies on the ideas of french philosopher Georges Canguilhem and Canadian philosopher Ian Hacking to argue that this increased prevalence of ADHD is not due to an actual increase of individuals with ADHD, but rather a result of the social, political, and economic norms and practices of contemporary 'western' society in the 'Global North'. The first section of this essay summarize Canguilhem's ideas on the role of normality and pathology in contemporary biology and medicine and explore his view that life is normative and view the implications of this on ADHD diagnoses. The second section discusses Hackings concept of dynamic nominalism: the notion that we as humans within societies respond to social categorization, we place value on our categorizations and as we behave in response to our social categories we simultaneously modify them as they respond to societal norms. The third section examines the features specific to our neoliberalist contemporary 'western' society, primarily utilitarianism, individualism, consumerism, and secularization, which account for the much higher prevalence of adhd compared to the 'Global South'. In conclusion, medicine, particularly psychology and psychiatry, is not the objective field we think it is, and socio-political and economic norms present in our society are strongly reflected in the practice of these fields. Thus, it is the facets of contemporary 'western' society, and not an actual increase in ADHD cases, that has led to this increase in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. 20 pp. Englisch.

Before the land became known as Peterborough, the name of the area was Nogojiwanong, which means a place at the end of the rapids in the Ojibwa language. The language, which was widely spoken by the Indigenous people in the community, before replacement of the cultural and Indigenous language practices with Christianity and the English language, was Anishinaabemowin.

Neuware -Essay from the year 2016 in the subject African Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 80%, , language: English, abstract: The historical dispossession of ¿native¿ land dates back to the colonial era and was reinforced and exacerbated by the apartheid Natives Land Act of 1913. The enactment of this Act saw the unequitable redistribution of land with black people only being afforded 7% of arable land. More significantly, the Act facilitated the creation of enclaves for the Black majority with the restriction on land ownership and socio-economic mobility (South African History Online, 2013). Hence, the democratic government from the year 1994 was faced with the monumental task of redressing this imbalance in land ownership and ensuring that the previously disadvantaged do not continue to be discriminated against with regards of land tenure in the country. However, land tenure reform for communal land has been marred with disputes pertaining to African tenure systems versus those influenced by colonial structures. In this regard, this paper seeks to highlight the need to decolonise communal land tenure reform for the improved implementation of rural development plans.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 16 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: A, , course: Globalisation and Global Justice, language: English, abstract: Several studies have contributed to the discourse of globalisation and how it has adversely impacted positively or negatively on the development of some third-world countries. Thus, in a way creating the incidence of a 'race to the bottom' of some nations. This essay shares some perspectives on the ailing defects of the global economy in third-world countries. It problematises the process of globalisation as a network of capitalists that operates to the disadvantage of the periphery.A more complex dynamics of trade exchanges can be envisaged in an era where developed countries are increasingly subsidising industrial production; and on the other hand, the lack of opportunity for industrial growth in developing countries to match free-market competition within an emerging integration of global economies. Historical perspectives of colonialism and the continuous process of neoliberalism are an inevitable facet of this stymied discourse. Global trends on human development indexes indicate significant growth in sectors of health, education, and infrastructure in most developing countries, especially in the regions of Sub-Sahara Africa, Central and South Americas, and parts of Asia.Amidst these facts are also the widening gaps of inequalities that exist between the periphery and developed countries. Two main dimensions are engaged to examine the given circumstance of poverty at intervals of wealth. The first has to do with the concentration of wealth in highly developed countries and the second to do with resource-rich but third-world economies caught in the gambit of dependency, as they languish amidst their own natural and human resources. The interconnectedness of global institutions (actor-ship) roles within this discourse cannot be disjointed, but concerted, in those processes which often ignores contingencies of effects and harms asserted on the poor and vulnerable people.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Communications - Media History, grade: 1,3, University of Tubingen, language: English, abstract: The existing gap in the trade agreements concerning a 'cultural exception' led me to my thesis statement. It proves the role of the CDCE agreement as a symbolic but crucial step towards cultural diversity in the media sector and against the cultural media imperialism of the West. For my analysis, I will choose a cultural approach. This approach is very convenient because the political and economic restrictions that were put in law by the CDCE agreement all affected cultural exchanges and supported cultural industries of developing countries. Assisting the developing countries in building up their own media systems to promote cultural expression is an important mechanism of the agreement, which helps to reduce the cultural inequality. The influence of liberalistic structures on culture grew because of international trade agreements like the WTO or the GATT. Thus, the CDCE agreement is seen as a movement against these liberalistic structures and tends to provide restrictions for cultural industries. Due to the restrictions that are set up to protect the cultural sector, debates about the limitation of the free flow of information increased. The former foreign minister Rice expressed her concern by saying that the Convention could be misused to justify a restriction of the free flow of information. The question if the resolutions of the CDCE are able to limit the free flow of information or if they are even an encouraging measure for a more diverse flow of information, is one of the topics that I will analyse in the following main part. In addition, I will look at the capacity of the CDCE agreement to establish media structures in the developing countries to provide an equivalent distribution of cultural products.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Carbon neutrality has been proposed at different discussions and forums as a panacea for carbon emission and climate change. Although Carbon Neutrality has been faced with different kinds of opposition about its concept and its sustainability, there is a need to not just discuss and emphasis on the pains but also evaluate what gains we have in the offset concept as a present remedy towards finding a ¿permanent¿ solution to the issue of climate change. 20 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Document from the year 2018 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 1.3, Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel (Englisches Seminar), language: English, abstract: This text contains an essay and the schedule for an English lesson (seventh/eighth grade Gymnasium). The author shows how to introduce the graphic novel 'The Arrival' by Shaun Tan. This book starts with an essay discussing and interpreting the novel. After this, the author describes how the novel could be dealt with by teachers.This work focuses on one specific graphic novel of Tan. Hence, the term 'graphic novel' will be used frequently, thus a definition needs to be given. Until the 1970s, comics were seen as books for young children and youths without any cognitive or literary demands. In 1978, Eisner and Steranko published comic books and called them graphic novel in order to prove that comics too are demanding. In the 1980s, Art Spiegelmann published his controversial graphic novel 'Maus I', which deals with his families experience in the Holocaust. Spiegelmanns graphic novel not only supported Eisner and Steranko's efforts, it even managed to enter classrooms as an example of serious literature.According to Monnin, graphic novels are the perfect mix of print-text and image literacy, which makes it easy to have literature suitable for a larger group of students. Since some students are rather verbal-linguistic and others rather visual learners, a graphic novel seems to be a nice arrangement which fits both. This option makes it possible to get more students interested in literature and motivates them to read and to participate in the course. Furthermore, Monnin highlights the importance of this change for teachers. Teachers have the opportunity to change the conservative print-text literature school courses into innovative and more creative courses, therewith showing a different feature of literature to the wider society.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 24 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Literature - Modern Literature, grade: 3,0, University of Erfurt, course: Literature in images: Graphic Novels, language: English, abstract: A lot of graphic novels work with Intertextuality, because as a visual medium they can represent or quote another text even better than a normal novel. Alison Bechdel¿s 'Fun Home' is a prime example of those graphic novels that use intertextuality. Her memoir is full of pop culture and book references. My thesis is that the literary works and stories she has woven into her story mirror her own story and exist to further illustrate her struggles coming of age.The structure of the paper is going to be the following: first comes a short introduction on Intertextuality assisted by Graham Allen¿s 'Introduction to Intertextuality' and Roland Barthes¿ 'Death of the Author'. The next part, which is going to be the main part, focuses of course on Intertextuality in 'Fun Home'. Starting off, the first subchapter is going to be about the repeated usage of the myth of Daedalus and Icarus as a display of the relationship between Alison and her father Bruce Bechdel. I would like to search for the connection between this analogy, especially how it was used and why.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 24 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Pedagogy - General, , language: English, abstract: This paper titled ¿pedagogy of technology integration in teaching and learning¿ examined the scope of technology integration in teaching and learning with a view of showing its relationship with pedagogy and also examined the problem of integrating technology into teaching and learning process. Common excuses for the limited use of technology to support instruction include shortage of computers, lack of computer skill and computer intimidation. While these could affect the success of technology integration, it should be acknowledged that the degree of success teachers have in using technology for instruction could depend in part on their ability to explore the relationship between pedagogy and technology. This paper shows that technology integration is narrowly perceived and that such a perception might hinder teachers¿ understanding of the scope of technology in education. Technology integration should be considered along with issues involved in teaching and learning. Such issues include developing learning objectives, selecting methods of instruction, feedback, and evaluation and assessment strategies including follow-up activities. The paper concluded that it is important that educators perceive technology in education as part of the pedagogical process and also recognizes the relationship between pedagogy and technology in education. The following recommendations among others were made; Designing a dynamic classroom using technology requires teachers to provide a learning environment that is colorful, engaging, exciting, interactive and energetic as a way of encouraging students to venture into the world of technology and to discover knowledge for themselves; educators are encouraged to view technology integration from a wider perspective and be reflective in their teaching as they use technology to support and facilitate instruction and that instructional technology should be identified at the planning stage just as the students¿ readiness is assessed, lesson objectives identified, methods of presenting are established, and evaluation strategies are determined.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 20 pp. Englisch.
