“…Management support of safety training includes informing workers about safety, in general, and adherence to safety procedures, in particular [20]. Safety training that focuses on safety accountability increases employee safety knowledge and compliance, influences worker behaviors and attitudes regarding occupational and safety rules [21][22][23], and is considered one of the most effective aspects of a safety program [24,25].…”

The main objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between the use of smart technology (mobile phones) and the implicit (tacit) and explicit safety knowledge of employees and their propensity to follow safe practices at work. A survey was performed with seven constructs: (a) use of mobile technology; (b) tacit safety knowledge; (c) explicit safety knowledge of unsafe behaviors; (d) attitudes toward safety: emotional aspects; (e) safety culture: behavioral and psychological aspects of work; (f) safety culture: aspects of work; (g) safety culture: regulations at work. Workers from three manufacturing companies located in southeastern Poland completed a paper-based survey. The results revealed that using mobile technology positively influenced the explicit safety knowledge of employees, as well as their assessed safety culture, in terms of behavioral aspects and their attitudes toward safety expressed through the psychological aspects of safety culture.

a b s t r a c tThis paper presents a conceptual model for increasing acceptable working environments for SMEs. It also acts as an editorial for the special issue of Safety Science on 'Managing safety in small and medium enterprises (SMEs)'. It describes how seven of the ten papers in the special issue originate from an international conference in 2013 on Understanding Small Enterprises. It includes a commentary on the papers in the special issue as well as directing the reader to all of the current state-of-the-science sources known to the authors. The paper provides a background to previous research on safety in SMEs, showing how most current policy and legislation on occupational health and safety (OSH) and the work environment is based on large enterprises and that there is a relative paucity of research on OSH in SMEs. In a summary of current knowledge, it is argued that modern OHS legislation and interventions to help improve work environments need to increasingly take account of the specific characteristics of SMEs. The conceptual model for increasing acceptable working environments for SMEs takes its onset in a legislative standard that is built into intervention programmes and includes three instrument pillars: inspection to enhance compliance, recognition of the standard by the stakeholders in the industry sector and dissemination of information to small enterprises.

“…This process can be applied to other intelligent and adaptive e-learning systems such as (Violante, 2014) (Floyde, 2013) DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION In this research, we developed an enhanced version of a learning style index that can be integrated into intelligent and adaptive learning systems. Our enhanced learning style index (ELSI) extends Felder-Silverman learning style index (LSI) in two ways: a new fuzzy-like evaluation system and a new social/emotional dimension.…”

Advances and accessibility of Internet services around the world have transformed the traditional classroom learning into web-based e-learning systems. In recent years, designing adaptive e-learning systems has become one of striking topic of discussions in the literature. Additionally, integrating such systems with intelligent and adaptive systems that can measure the learning preferences of the user can enable learners to obtain the most suitable learning objects that might be matched with their learning styles. Moreover, even in the classroom teaching, knowing the learning styles of students can also help teachers to adopt appropriate learning materials for efficient learning. This paper is concerned with the study, implementation, and application of a web-based learning style index. The paper also described a case study on the integration of the learning style index into an adaptive and intelligent e-learning system.
