<p>In the “Etruscanning3D” european project framework, the virtual reconstruction of the Regolini Galassi tomb, in Cerveteri, has been realized, in order to recontextualize its precious funerary goods, today preserved in the vatican Museums, in their ancient space, digitally represented in 3D. The reconstruction has been preceded by a huge work of data collection, reinterpretations, topographical acquisitions through a variety of techniques, digital restorations, in order to create a plausible simulation of how the tomb could appear when it was closed, at the half of the VII century BC. The final purpose of the VR application is communication inside museums, so the narrative approach and the metaphors of interactions played another key role.</p>

The continuous development of information and telecommunication technologies has led to the possibility of transferring data and information between people in real time, in just a few seconds, which has led to the emergence of new approaches to data collection. An example is crowdsourcing (networked mass of people), which involves collecting a large amount of defined data from a large number (mass) of people through the Internet, that is, embedded sensors in smart devices. These are most often mobile phones and then it is about the concept of mobile crowdsourcing – which is more widely accepted under the term crowdsensing. This paper shows how smart devices (mobile phones or tablets) can collect vibration data that occur while driving in road traffic – and still be used to detect irregularities in road infrastructure (potholes, bumps, etc.) in real conditions.

Practice theorists favor interviews and participant observations in their study. Using insights from anthropological works on bureaucratic texts, in this article we develop methodological tools to complement these interpretive methods of data collection. We suggest a way to trace practices by systematically looking through both the content of documents and their form. We probe this approach with an analysis of 408 diplomatic cables sent by the US Embassy in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania in 2005–2009 and subsequently released by Wikileaks. We draw on these documents to tell two related stories about diplomatic practices: the first about epistemic practices and how the cables privilege certain voices and types of knowledge over others, and the second about diplomatic culture, where the cables serve as evidence of the powerful socialization processes that diplomats are subject to. This contributes to International Relations (IR) with a new approach for systematically analyzing written documents to uncover international practices.

Abstract This study aimed to develop a method to assess experienced quality of care (QoC) in nursing homes from the resident’s perspective. A narrative approach “Facilitating Care” (FC) was developed based on the INDEXQUAL framework of experienced QoC and a needs assessment. FC assesses experienced QoC by training care professionals to perform individual conversations with residents, their family and their professional caregivers (triads) in another organization than where they are employed. FC consists of three phases: 1) training, 2) data collection and registration, and 3) analysis and reporting of the results. In 2018, 16 care professionals were trained and performed 148 conversations (47 residents, 44 family members, 57 professional caregivers) in 8 different nursing homes. Evaluation showed that FC teaches helpful conversation techniques and provides valuable insights into residents’ experienced QoC. Whilst the process was considered time consuming, all participants emphasized the added value of taking time for FC conversations.

Non-technical summary We interviewed grassroots food innovators in South Africa to explore the diverse ways in which their narratives expressed different capacities for resilience, such as dealing with surprise and shaping desirable change. We drew on key resilience themes of rootedness, resourcefulness and resistance (the 3Rs) as lenses through which to view their personal stories and efforts to build resilience and reshape the future. We used narrative and interpretative methods to connect the personal and context-specific experiences of food innovators to the 3Rs, exploring a new approach to uncovering resilience capacities. We suggest that this approach could be usefully employed to understand potential resilience capacities that could help address diverse sustainability challenges around the world.
