Following this case study, it was agreed on the form of parameterization of the units of measurement and the cases that this parameterization covers. The conversion of the stock from one unit of measurement to another can be done by means of a conversion factor between the specific units of measurement of a product. The existence of this conversion factor leads to conversion errors depending on the number of decimals with which it is defined. Using multiple units of measurement for one product does not solve all the problems, but it does help to simplify certain operations that are performed at the management level.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80449021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"MANAGING THE IMPLEMENTATION IN SCHOOLS OF ICT AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE PERFORMANCE OF SCHOOL STUDENTS","authors":"Hana Horany","doi":"10.47535/1991auoes31(1)039","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.47535/1991auoes31(1)039","url":null,"abstract":"The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in teaching is a goal that education systems across the world strive for, in both developed and developing countries. However, ICT integration has not been found prevalent and consistent in empirical studies in the past three decades. Although many of these studies have examined the application of ICT and its effects on teaching and the achievement of learning objectives, empirical information is still lacking on the relationship between ICT integration and the ability to realize its potential benefits regarding students’ achievement. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to review the current empirical research examining the impact of ICT implementation in schools on students’ academic achievements. The conclusion drawn from empirical research findings in the past two decades is that they tend to be consequential to the research approach from which they derive, and that a robust and distinct effect of ICT application on students’ academic achievement cannot be determined. Additionally, findings reinforce the claim that the greatest impact on students’ academic outcomes following the use of ICT is not significantly influenced by internal factors in students, but more by factors related to the teachers, the learning environment and opportunities and the school administration. Furthermore, a large proportion of these factors are, in turn, a subject of a certain cultural and social context. Consequentially, the association between ICT integration in a given educational system and the expected results of the process, is the product of a complex relationship between many factors, educational, cultural and social, and a successful ICT assimilation process has to be one that takes these factors into account. These findings highlight the need for further empirical research that will expand the current theoretical and practical knowledge on this issue. In addition, these findings need to be taken into account by policymakers as well as education professionals.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85140461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The way in which, depending on the different types of motivations, the cultural tourism market can be subdivided into a number of sub-markets or niche markets such as: tangible heritage (tangible), intangible culture (intangible), city breaks, tastings (food and wine), community tourism in which tourism experiences are managed by local communities and religious / spiritual tourism. Cultural tourists are individuals or groups looking for distinct experiences, focusing on visual arts and entertainment, architecture, cooking and crafts, often combining primary motivation with secondary motivation. Cultural tourism is linked to the profile of tourists, and here the generational component seems to be particularly relevant. Identifying and understanding the most appropriate tourist markets and the motivations and needs of tourists in travel experiences is a critical step in attracting tourists to tourist cities with cultural and heritage values. Cultural tourists validate the importance of heritage, arts and culture through experience in these destinations, and income from this type of tourism contributes to the prosperity of the community and local businesses, while supporting activities related to culture, art or local public services. The methodology used includes bibliographic documentation for the analysis, detailing and exemplification of niche markets of cultural tourism, as well as the investigation of the relationship between the availability of cultural goods and the motivation, typology and profile of cultural tourists.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77909967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attendance at online courses has largely depended on the existence of computer/laptop and internet connections. Family involvement in children’s education was crucial, sometimes being forced to assume the role of teachers. It is sad but thru that, the success of the children during this period largely depended on the financial situation of the parents. The unpreparedness of students in the online teaching and learning process from the beginning over time was replaced with quality and competency in the use of communication and technology. The need for teachers was underlined by the crisis. Virtual learning versus traditional in-person learning has been the favourite topic of debate for scientists in 2021. The detailed analysis of the weaknesses and strengths fills whole volumes, but most of them agree with one thing a strong education means combining them. Knowledge management in a virtual environment is difficult and requires a lot of attention and skills. The composition of the virtual pedagogical portfolio must be done in the interest of the students. Adapting the curriculum to local needs is a demand for a successful education, satisfied students who will be capable to assume a role in economic development. We must not lose sight of the fact that by 2022 over 50 million students are enrolled on the most popular online platforms. The development of a new educational system that is sustainable and equipped for all kinds of unexpected scenarios is a global necessity.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79875373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digital platforms, as the foundation that supports software ecosystems’ development, have reshaped the traditional business models by focusing more on new dimensions such as stakeholders instead of customers and suppliers, or value co-creation instead of value creation. Software ecosystems contribute significantly to how business is conducted around the world. By performing an overview of recent literature published in Web of Science top academic journals, our paper presents a bibliometric co-occurrence and co-authorship analysis of both software ecosystems and digital platforms.

Internal communication in an organization is the link that binds its departments, and leads to the smooth running of the business. The relationship between internal communication and external communication within an organization is the result of cooperation between its departments, and the result is the image it transmits externally. In order to have communication within an organization, one must know who is communicating, in what atmosphere, and especially what they are communicating. It is no secret that the importance of knowing a foreign language influences almost every aspect of multinational business. Language can be a barrier in everyday activities, when branches that speak different languages have to communicate with each other. Knowledge of a foreign language can be an aspect that facilitates the flow of communication, both internally (within the same department) and externally (between several departments). The employees with language skills who know one or more foreign languages have more opportunities to work with people from different departments and can keep in touch without effort. Also, speaking the same language, both employees and managers can more easily maintain relationships with other affiliates, not depending on each other and thus saving valuable time. In the same time, as a result of the many cultural contexts, the workplace faces additional communication issues and even when employees in different locations or offices speak the same language, there are some cultural differences to consider in order to improve communication between the two parties. An effective communication strategy begins with the recognition that the message sender and recipient come from different cultures and backgrounds. Thus, this adds a layer of ambiguity to conversations, making them much more difficult. Therefore, this paper considers to demonstrate that without diving into cultures and subcultures, it is perhaps most crucial for individuals to grasp that cultural variety is the key to success.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77635416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study addresses existing opinions and perceptions regarding Arab women’s level of adherence to pre-pregnancy genetic screening tests. This is an empirical quantitative research and its findings related to the responses given by Arab women, considered the most important stakeholder, the clients of the genetic screening test system. The main findings are that women have a great deal of support for a binding law mandating the performance of tests as well as the requirement to predicate marriage on tests, and for enforcing its application.\u0000\u0000Another finding is that there is a strong influence of religion and Muslim clerics on the willingness to perform tests among the population. . A special contribution of the study is a change in religious policy by the Chairman of the Muslim Court in Israel, who issued a fatwa (religious order) that commands and directs the Muslim population to perform the tests. Recommendations are made concerning the development of a national program that promotes genetic health and directly influences responsiveness to pre-pregnancy tests aimed towards the main stakeholder group that is Arab women in Israel.","PeriodicalId":53245,"journal":{"name":"Annals of the University of Oradea Economic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83976911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was a continuous development; new concepts have emerged and have been used without giving up on previously developed constructs. For example, Shewhart has used the PDCA cycle under an initial form in 1939, but it is still widely used as a core construct of the ISO 9000 quality management family of standards. The question we address within this article is how quality management has been adopted within the healthcare industry, probably one of the most reticent industries when it comes to adopting new technologies and solutions. In order to answer this question, we firstly review the quality management concepts developed within the healthcare industry. Secondly, we detail a framework for the adoption of quality management initiatives (QMIs) in other industries, as a reference for managers working in the healthcare industry to guide their actions. In the third part, a review of the most relevant quality management initiatives within the healthcare industry are presented. The fourth part is a presentation of the most common issues related to process management in the healthcare industry, one of the most important areas related to quality management these days.
