It addresses the political, economic, and social benefits that accrue when commerce and markets are made freer, and implications this poses for American businesses. Further, it surveys how key economies of Latin America have learned from past failures and are poised to capitalize on them in the future. It will offer a detailed understanding for business scholars, practitioners, and entrepreneurs looking to explore new business ventures in dynamic trade union. 606 $aInternational economic integration 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aRetail trade 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aLatin America$xEconomic conditions 606 $aEmerging Markets and Globalization 606 $aTrade and Retail 606 $aInternational Economics 606 $aLatin American/Caribbean Economics 615 0$aInternational economic integration. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aRetail trade. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aLatin America$xEconomic conditions. 615 14$aEmerging Markets and Globalization. 615 24$aTrade and Retail. 615 24$aInternational Economics. 615 24$aLatin American/Caribbean Economics. 676 $a650 700 $aSpillan$b John E$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0846756 702 $aVirzi$b Nicholas$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254905803321 996 $aBusiness Opportunities in the Pacific Alliance$92295476 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04829nam 22007815 450 001 9910349336403321 005 20250628110044.0 010 $a9783030262037 010 $a3030262030 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-26203-7 035 $a(CKB)4100000009273614 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-26203-7 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5896969 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5896969 035 $a(OCoLC)1120756249 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/28659 035 $a(ODN)ODN0010069006 035 $a(oapen)doab28659 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000009273614 100 $a20190913d2019 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aGender Differences in Computer and Information Literacy $eAn In-depth Analysis of Data from ICILS /$fby Eveline Gebhardt, Sue Thomson, John Ainley, Kylie Hillman 205 $a1st ed. 2019. 210 $d2019 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2019. 215 $a1 online resource (XI, 73 p. 5 illus., 1 illus. in color.) 225 1 $aIEA Research for Education, A Series of In-depth Analyses Based on Data of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA),$x2366-164X ;$v8 311 08$a9783030262020 311 08$a3030262022 327 $a1.

What have we learned about gender differences in ICT? -- References. 330 $aThis open access book presents a systematic investigation into internationally comparable data gathered in ICILS 2013. It identifies differences in female and male students? use of, perceptions about, and proficiency in using computer technologies. Teachers? use of computers, and their perceptions regarding the benefits of computer use in education, are also analyzed by gender. When computer technology was first introduced in schools, there was a prevailing belief that information and communication technologies were ?boys? toys?; boys were assumed to have more positive attitudes toward using computer technologies. As computer technologies have become more established throughout societies, gender gaps in students? computer and information literacy appear to be closing, although studies into gender differences remain sparse. The IEA?s International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS) is designed to discover how well students are prepared for study, work, and life in the digital age. Despite popular beliefs, a critical finding of ICILS 2013 was that internationally girls tended to score more highly than boys, so why are girls still not entering technology-based careers to the same extent as boys? Readers will learn how male and female studentsdiffer in their computer literacy (both general and specialized) and use of computer technology, and how the perceptions held about those technologies vary by gender. 410 0$aIEA Research for Education, A Series of In-depth Analyses Based on Data of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA),$x2366-164X ;$v8 606 $aSex 606 $aEducation$xData processing 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aEducational tests and measurements 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aComputers and Education 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aAssessment and Testing 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aEducation$xData processing. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aEducational tests and measurements. 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aComputers and Education. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aAssessment and Testing. 676 $a370.81 676 $a370.81 686 $aEDU000000$aEDU011000$aEDU039000$aEDU043000$2bisacsh 700 $aGebhardt$b Eveline$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0923825 702 $aThomson$b Sue$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aAinley$b John$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aHillman$b Kylie$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349336403321 996 $aGender Differences in Computer and Information Literacy$92073229 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03287nam 22005655 450 001 9910484526203321 005 20251113200415.0 010 $a3-030-32068-5 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-32068-3 035 $a(CKB)4100000010953739 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-32068-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6173999 035 $a(PPN)243761317 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6174033 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010953739 100 $a20200411d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aConformally Invariant Metrics and Quasiconformal Mappings /$fby Parisa Hariri, Riku Klén, Matti Vuorinen 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (XIX, 502 p. 56 illus.) 225 1 $aSpringer Monographs in Mathematics,$x2196-9922 311 08$a3-030-32067-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPart I: Introduction and Review -- Introduction -- A Survey of QuasiregularMappings -- Part II: Conformal Geometry -- Möbius Transformations -- Hyperbolic Geometry -- Generalized Hyperbolic Geometries -- Metrics and Geometry -- Part III: Modulus and Capacity -- The Modulus of a Curve Family -- The Modulus as a Set Function -- The Capacity of a Condenser -- Conformal Invariants -- Part IV: Intrinsic Geometry -- Hyperbolic Type Metrics -- Comparison of Metrics -- Local Convexity of Balls -- Inclusion Results for Balls -- Part V: QuasiregularMappings -- Basic Properties of QuasiregularMappings -- Distortion Theory -- Dimension-Free Theory -- Metrics and Maps -- Teichmüller?s Displacement Problem -- Part VI: Solutions -- Solutions to Exercises. 330 $aThis book is an introduction to the theory of quasiconformal and quasiregular mappings in the euclidean n-dimensional space, (where n is greater than 2). There are many ways to develop this theory as the literature shows. The authors' approach is based on the use of metrics, in particular conformally invariant metrics, which will have a key role throughout the whole book. The intended readership consists of mathematicians from beginning graduate students to researchers. The prerequisite requirements are modest: only some familiarity with basic ideas of real and complex analysis is expected. 410 0$aSpringer Monographs in Mathematics,$x2196-9922 606 $aPotential theory (Mathematics) 606 $aGeometry, Differential 606 $aPotential Theory 606 $aDifferential Geometry 615 0$aPotential theory (Mathematics) 615 0$aGeometry, Differential. 615 14$aPotential Theory. 615 24$aDifferential Geometry. 676 $a515.9 700 $aHariri$b Parisa$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01005288 702 $aKlén$b Riku$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aVuorinen$b Matti$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484526203321 996 $aConformally Invariant Metrics and Quasiconformal Mappings$92311009 997 $aUNINA
