Monitoring of products by University of Bologna
No full textIt is presented the quality control of the output products (the training units implemented into the Moodle platform): This evaluation has been done on the basis of an evaluation grid filled in by Partners, checking, in particular, Moodle’s Products clarity, completeness, effectiveness, coherence, usability and degree of trans-nationality.
The aim of the evaluation was primarily to assess the partner’s expectations about how much the on-line products met the required standards.
The contribute present detailed analyses of the evaluation form returned by partners (divided for Training Unit) and a final overall evaluation
Testing of the training model for on-line tutors
No full textThis contribute is organized in two sections: 1) “Tutor’s training course development”, that constitutes the Process monitoring; 2) “Tutor’s training supply”, that constitutes the control of the product and its quality.
The latter is further on divided into two part. In point a) we objectively evaluate the course supply, taking into account data available in Moodle platform about the learner’s participation to the course. In point b) we used subjective data (obtained with a structured questionnaire filled in by learners) to evaluate the quality of the product, correlating them to objective data too.
The contribute end with some practical suggestion about how to effectively implement the Training Unit in organizational contexts
Storyboard relating to on-line tutors' training
No full textIt is presented the Storyboard that the authors developed for the "on-line tutors' training".
The Storyboard is divided in five section: A) Socialization; B) E-Learning: antecedents, approaches and types; C) The E –Tutor competences; D) Evaluation and monitoring; E) Conclusion and discussion about the exercise results.
Every section provide sub-topics, and for everyone is defined: Contents; Training Methods; Competences at the end of the Unit; Training Mean

Between Energy Crisis and Cold War Tensions: How an Incohesive European Community Saved the Siberian Gas Pipeline (1980-1985)
No full textBetween 1980 and 1985, a cooperation project between the Soviet Union and some Western European countries led to the construction of the so-called “Yamal” pipeline, the first that crossed the Iron Curtain and the one that marked the beginning of Western European dependence on Soviet gas. The risks connected to such dependence prompted the US administration to oppose the project by any means, thus splitting the Western alliance. Given the economic and geopolitical implications of “Yamal”, an analysis of the role of the European Community (EC) in the project provides an interesting view of the margin of action the EC could enjoy in the early 1980s and shows that while European institutions could exert a strong influence on international relations, their attempt to promote a common approach in the field of energy failed once again in the case of “Yamal”
HSE management standards indicator tool and positive work-related outcomes
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this paper is to evaluate if the Management Standards (MS) Indicator Tool developed by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) for the assessment of work-related stress is associated with positive work-related outcomes.
Design/methodology/approach – In total, 326 employees of an Italian firm filled in a questionnaire including the HSE Indicator Tool (measuring MS) and validated scales investigating personal development, job performance and Organizational Citizenship Behaviour (OCB).
Regression analyses were run to evaluate the explained variance of the outcomes and the demands/control interaction effect hypothesized by Karasek’s active learning hypothesis.
Findings – The MS explained variance of all the outcomes analysed and the active learning hypothesis was confirmed for personal development. Contrary to previous studies on negative stress-related outcomes, “job content” MS were the most important predictors. However, higher job demands were unexpectedly positively associated with the outcomes.
Practical implications – Taking into account positive work-related outcomes could provide organizations with additional information for the development of interventions with greater emphasis on preventive orientation (improvement of health, well-being and motivation, rather than only work stress reduction).
Originality/value – The study provides new insight into the relationship between MS and positive work-related outcomes, thus expanding the nomological network of the Indicator Tool questionnaire and giving empirical evidence to the notion of the “business case” for work stress prevention. Firms performing well on MS could expect greater worker development and higher performance
