“…The government is viewed to have important roles as regulators of this new technology to ensure innovation as well as security (Ducas and Wilner, 2017) and the adoption of blockchain technology in order to facilitate transparency, trust and improve efficiency of public services especially through use of permissioned blockchains (Atzori, 2015). Therefore, governments around the world are investing in blockchain technology to build trust and provide efficient public services (Firica, 2017;Nordrum, 2017;Kostin et al, 2017;Priisalu and Ottis, 2017;Lander and Cooper, 2017). The government's use of blockchain technology includes areas such as healthcare, education, supply chain management, digital identity, voting, smart cities, sharing services and logistics.…”

PurposeThe purpose of the research is to assess security concerns in government's use of Blockchain technology through the lens of value focused thinking (VFT) approach.Design/methodology/approachQualitative methods such as open ended questions and interviews were used to gather data and the data was analysed in a structured approach to formulate a means-ends network of objectives. The data were collected from eight interviews of selected participants.FindingsThe findings are 35 objectives of which ten are fundamental objectives related to the values of identity, trust, data privacy, transparency, integrity, public service delivery, cost, availability of public information, responsibility and usability.Practical implicationsThe study implies that governments or private organisations building blockchain solutions for governments can benefit from insights on values to focus on in blockchain security; and the current research serves as a base to understand more on blockchain use in the governments as well as security values and application of VFT approach for future academic researchers in this area.Social implicationsIt is a need-driven approach in which blockchain is assessed to ensure its fit to societal needs and public values.Originality/valueIt is first of its kind in studying security in blockchain use by government through the lens of VFT approach, and it provides insights of values that are of importance to further blockchain use in the government.

Regulation of Digital Behavior Models for Knowledge Transfer: Organizational Concerns of Remote Learning

Research on behavior regulation was carried out after several months of social isolation, provoked by the pandemic, between the months of February and March 2020. In spring 2020, many higher education institutions began to introduce digital tools of education, remote learning, and distance teaching. The reaction during the first weeks and months was negative, but the experience of this remote regime of work and learning continued into the autumn semester due to COVID-19. This experience included the perceptions of new organizational approaches that were needed to regulate digital behavior as a specific type of strategy and choices made in the virtual space. This need was expressed in an understanding of the improvements to be implemented in the organization of educational processes at traditional institutions to efficiently apply the remote learning regime. Between December 2020 and March 2021, six focus groups were conducted to investigate if the regulation of behavior for remote work and learning (work for university administrative staff and academic teachers; studying for students) differed, with informal interviews also conducted to check the validity of the opinions formulated. The hypotheses of the lack of responsibility, and of iterative accomplishment of shorter and simpler tasks, were supported with the data obtained. The hypothesis on an imbalanced vision of mutual interests, and of the assessments of gains and costs of the remote activity, was confirmed. The hypothesis of the externalization of motivation was neither confirmed nor rejected, contradictory opinions were obtained, and, thus, further quantitative study is required. The conclusions based on the obtained results included support for improving the regulation mechanisms required to organize knowledge transfer when digital tools are applied at traditional educational institutions. To enhance the remote regime of learning, redesign and reorganization is necessary when considering the assistance needed by teachers and learners. Specific organizational efforts need to be implemented to restructure the teaching to shorter sequences, to stimulate the creativity of both teachers and learners (due to the readiness to experiment and the lack of critics, and constant access to online bases), and to identify the borders of the “sandbox” to clearly define and articulate the common rules of behavior.

“…3 stage: while performing communicative group tasks such as case-studies, discussions etc., students tend to have some issues connected with lack of skills in using adequate communicative strategies, so some 376 participants dominate the others in communication process. Therefore, teachers have to monitor this more carefully and pay more attention to the practice of using different communicative strategies (Akhmetshin et al, 2019;Kostin, Pokrovskaia, & Ababkova, 2017).…”

The article describes the tool of infographics in relevance to teaching post graduate engineering students a foreign language. Apart from the illustrative function, educational and cognitive potential of using infographics as a learning tool are examined. The didactic potential of this tool for developing a professional communicative competence is analyzed. During our research study aimed at improving professional foreign language communicative competence of engineering master students of polytechnic university it was noticed that there is a small number of visual supports in the authentic materials of the world's leading publications specializing in topics related to engineering field of studies. Thus the stages of creating an infoposter are presented and the benefits of using this tool in class are explained as well. The article also provides information on experiment aimed at enhancing the communicative activity of students through the study of professionally oriented vocabulary and the implementation of exercises related to text analysis using the infographics tool. The results of experiment demonstrate positive dynamics in the aspects of forming professional thesaurus and developing communicative competence. Obtained results allow to make a conclusion that the use of cognitive-visual technology and infoposters can be considered an effective tool in engineering education in high school.
