La fine del lavoro (pagato)
No full textNel 1995 Jeremy Rifkin annunciava, con l'omonimo testo, La fine del lavoro. L'emblematico titolo rimandava a una visione del futuro nella quale, complice la Terza rivoluzione industriale, sarebbe stato possibile per tutti ridurre le ore di lavoro erogato. All'alba della Quarta rivoluzione industriale siamo costretti a parlare della fine del lavoro pagato, a indicare un'epoca nella quale l'innovazione tecnologica, la robotica e il digitale vengono usati principalmente per ridurre i salari, inducendo ciascuno a lavorare sempre di più per compensare un lavoro che vale sempre di meno. In questi anni, il lavoro gratuito è in rapida crescita – lo ritroviamo nei grandi eventi come Expo, in stage e tirocini sino all'alternanza scuola-lavoro - a normalizzare quello che per lungo tempo è stato un ossimoro: l'impiego di lavoro libero e non pagato. Quali sono le conseguenze della diffusione del lavoro non pagato? È possibile pensare il rifiuto del lavoro ai tempi della precarietà e della disoccupazione? Come, in ultima analisi, muovere verso un modello economico diverso che riconosca il valore del lavoro e della riproduzione sociale
Coin-sequences and coin-combinations taught as companion tasks
No full textUsing both physical and Fathom™ virtual coins Year 10 students explored the distinction between coin-sequences and coin-combinations (where the order is not important) presented as companion tasks within an integrated coin system. This approach sought to highlight two key concepts within the one teaching unit: coin-sequences, to examine independent events, and coin-combinations, to examine the binomial distribution. The misconception that a particular coin-sequence (e.g. HHHHH) is less likely to occur may arise when a coin-sequence task is re-interpreted incorrectly as a coin-combination (e.g. 5 Heads). Pedagogy was based on principles that emphasised profound understanding through the use of multiple approaches to problem solving
Forecasting coin demand.
No full textShortages of coins in 1999 and 2000 motivated the authors to develop models for forecasting coin demand. A variety of models were developed, tested, and used in realtime forecasting. This paper describes the models that were developed and examines the forecast errors from the models both in quasi-ex-ante forecasting exercises and in realtime use. Tests for forecast efficiency are run on each model. Real-time forecasts are examined. The authors conclude with suggestions for further refinements of the models.Coinage
Coin 08-05-074
No full textThis piece appears to be a double struck coin (a coin which was hit twice by the minter's hammer creating a shadow image on the metal). However, a close examination shows this shadow to be the actual design of the coin. The authenticity of this coin is questionable as it features a level of detail which seems too great for a 1500 year old coin. In addition, there is no inscription on the front side of the coin while there is a peculiar mark mCEe in the coin which is distinct from the work of most Roman mints. The front of the coin is on the left side of the image and the back is on the right

Coin, Rome 08-05-324
