Digital Holocaust Memory, Education and Research
This book explores the diverse range of practical and theoretical challenges and possibilities that digital technologies and platforms pose for Holocaust memory, education and research.From social media to virtual reality, 360-degree imaging to machine learning, there can be no doubt that digital media penetrate practice in these fields.As the Holocaust moves beyond living memory towards solely mediated memory, it is imperative that we pay critical attention to the way digital technologies are shaping public memory and education and research.Bringing together the voices of heritage and educational professionals, and academics from the arts and humanities and the social sciences, this interdisciplinary collection explores the practicalities of creating digital Holocaust projects, the educational value of such initiatives, and considers the extent to which digital technologies change the way we remember, learn about and research the Holocaust, thinking through issues such as ethics, embodiment, agency, community, and immersion.At its core, this volume interrogates the extent to which digital interventions in these fields mark an epochal shift in Holocaust memory, education and research, or whether they continue to be shaped by long-standing debates and guidelines developed in the broadcast era.

Gender Differences in Technology and Innovation Management : Insights from Experimental Research
Even though the number of working women has steadily increased over the last few years, women are still significantly under-represented in STEM activities (i.e. mathematics, informatics, science and technology). In order to eliminate this under-representation, numerous education policies and corporate initiatives, particularly in the recent past, have been aimed at increasing women's enthusiasm for STEM activities and professions.According to the latest surveys, however, it is clear that these efforts have not yet led to the desired success.Compared to their male counterparts, women continue to do fewer STEM activities. One possible reason for this is that relatively little is yet known about the concrete impact of the above education policies on working with innovation and technology: What are the gender differences between women and men?Is it enough to recognize these differences, or should these differences ideally not only be recognized, but also treated appropriately or even encouraged? This anthology deals with current topics in technology and innovation management against the background of these and other gender-relevant aspects.Empirical analyses and experiments in collaboration with companies from various sectors provide a sound scientific basis on which new results and findings are presented: How do women and men deal with creativity and competition?How are technologies applied and how can differences in access to technology be deduced? Answers to these and other questions help decision-makers in politics and business to proactively use the differences between women and men to motivate women to work in the STEM field and to strengthen them by acknowledging existing differences.

What is the echo effect in population development?
The echo effect in population development refers to the impact of a previous generation's high or low birth rate on the subsequent generation's population size. When a large cohort of people from a previous generation has children, it creates a temporary surge in the population size, known as the "echo." This can lead to increased demand for resources and services, as well as potential strain on infrastructure and social systems. Conversely, a low birth rate in a previous generation can lead to a smaller cohort in the subsequent generation, which may have implications for workforce size and economic productivity.

What effect does a television have: thermal effect, magnetic effect, chemical effect, or luminous effect?
A television primarily has a luminous effect, as it emits light to produce the images and colors that we see on the screen. Additionally, it also has a thermal effect, as it generates heat while in operation. However, it does not have a magnetic or chemical effect.
-
What is the halo effect or halo effect?
The halo effect is a cognitive bias in which our overall impression of a person influences our perceptions of their specific traits. For example, if we perceive someone as physically attractive, we may also assume they are intelligent or kind, even without evidence to support those assumptions. This bias can impact our judgments in various contexts, such as in the workplace, in relationships, or in social interactions. Being aware of the halo effect can help us make more objective and fair assessments of others.

Does market research hinder innovation in business administration?
Market research does not necessarily hinder innovation in business administration. In fact, it can provide valuable insights into consumer needs and preferences, helping businesses to develop innovative products and services that meet market demands. By understanding market trends and customer behavior, businesses can identify opportunities for innovation and stay ahead of competitors. However, relying too heavily on market research without allowing room for creativity and risk-taking can limit the potential for groundbreaking innovations. It is important for businesses to strike a balance between leveraging market research and fostering a culture of innovation to drive success in business administration.

The Effect : An Introduction to Research Design and Causality
The Effect: An Introduction to Research Design and Causality is about research design, specifically concerning research that uses observational data to make a causal inference.It is separated into two halves, each with different approaches to that subject.The first half goes through the concepts of causality, with very little in the way of estimation.It introduces the concept of identification thoroughly and clearly and discusses it as a process of trying to isolate variation that has a causal interpretation.Subjects include heavy emphasis on data-generating processes and causal diagrams. Concepts are demonstrated with a heavy emphasis on graphical intuition and the question of what we do to data.When we “add a control variable” what does that actually do?Key Features: • Extensive code examples in R, Stata, and Python• Chapters on overlooked topics in econometrics classes: heterogeneous treatment effects, simulation and power analysis, new cutting-edge methods, and uncomfortable ignored assumptions• An easy-to-read conversational tone• Up-to-date coverage of methods with fast-moving literatures like difference-in-differences
