    No full text
    The usage of web-based live chat help systems is particularly on the rise among e-commerce businesses. But its wide use is in stark contrast to the lack of analytic studies on how the users interact with this kind of systems. This article analyzes the user's awareness of the presence of live chat help systems and the impact that the live chat access banner's design has on the users' behavior. To that end, a usability test with 35 participants has been carried out, as well as two satisfaction surveys and a final questionnaire. The results of the study show that the chat system is satisfactory to the vast majority of users and that, of all the possible access banner designs, the one showing a human avatar proved to be the most successful in getting the participants to use the live chat to solve their doubts

    How to prepare your academic paper is the title of the tool developed by the Laboratorio de Comunicación Interactiva (Interactive Communication Laboratory) of the DigiDoc Group and the Library/CRAI at Universidad Pompeu Fabra to facilitate the preparation of scientific student papers according to standardized quality guidelines. The tutorial, which is available at http://stpr.upf.edu/tutorial/, responds to a double need: allowing self-learning by students, and serving as a pedagogic resource for the Curso de Introducción a la Universidad (Introductory course to the University, CIU) the library staff is giving. This article presents the guidelines used to create the tool, its pedagogic and discursive principles as well as the evaluation of the results obtained when first used during the 2012-13 academic year

    Objectivo: analizar la calidad de los sitios web turísticos oficiales de las comunidades autónomas españolas. -- Metodología: metodología propia, elaborada por el proyecto de investigación CODETUR, basada en una plantilla de análisis que contempla doce parámetros y un total de 127 indicadores. La combinación de indicadores y parámetros permite calcular un índice de calidad web (ICW) para cada sitio evaluado, un índice específico para cada parámetro e identificar aspectos sobresalientes y áreas de mejora en cada uno de los portales turísticos. -- Resultados: la calidad general de los portales turísticos oficiales de las comunidades autónomas españolas se sitúa justo por encima de un nivel medio, con un ICW global de 0,51. La puntuación más elevada la obtiene el sitio web de turismo de Galicia, con un 0,66, y la puntuación más baja, el de Extremadura, con un ICW de 0,33. Los parámetros que obtienen la puntuación media más elevada son los referidos a usabilidad y accesibilidad (0,75), posicionamiento (0,73) y arquitectura de la información (0,69), aspectos considerados | Objectives: This paper assesses the quality of official tourist destination websites offered by Spain’s regional tourism boards. -- Methodology: The system of assessment was designed by the research group Comunicación online de los destinos turísticos (Online Communication for Destination Brands, CODETUR) in the form of a template combining 12 parameters and 127 indicators to calculate a web quality index for each website and identify its strengths and weaknesses. -- Results: The quality of tourist destination websites offered by Spain’s regional tourism boards was observed to be slightly above average, with an overall web quality index of 0.51 in which Galicia scored the highest (0.66) and Extremadura scored the lowest (0.33).

    Se pretende identificar la representación científica de la Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso (UFMT) en relación a su participación en los productos Google Earth y Google Maps, en los que se han entrelazado aquellas relaciones más importantes con más de 5 trabajos publicados en conjunto dentro de la Web of Science. Para la recuperación de datos se ha utilizado el método de filiación institucional (C1); mientras que el tratamiento se ha hecho en Excel a través de GPS Visualizer's para mapear las longitudes y latitudes. Posteriormente se generó una página para hospedar la estructura de las relaciones en .kml, lenguaje que es legible por Google Maps y Google Earth.
