Abstract:
Exploring the mobile learning needs amongst performing arts students
Purpose
This paper aims to study the information needs and online information-seeking behaviors on mobile platforms of performing arts students at a college level.
Design/methodology/approach
Survey instruments were used to collect data from performing arts students at the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts (HKAPA), a metropolitan’s major performing arts tertiary institution. Data collected were analyzed through descriptive statistics and other statistical methods, and the music-related students were compared with the production-related students.
Findings
The result reveals that performing arts students all owned their mobile devices and often used mobile apps for non-academic purposes, but they did not often use mobile library services or read online academic contents with their mobile devices. The participants considered inadequate signal coverage, slow loading time, difficulty in reading on a mobile device and the lack of specialized mobile apps as more significant barriers affecting their usage. There are some significant differences between the music-related and production-related student groups in that music-related students watched lectures on the library websites and used electronic music scores more often than the production-related students.
Practical implications
This study contributes to the input for enhancements and policies to future mobile services and facilities of performing art libraries.
Originality/value
There have been scant studies on the mobile learning needs of performing arts students, especially in Asia.

Abstract:
An empirical study of adopting lean principles for value creation in the supply chain context
Lean principles begin in manufacturing which has been the symbol of efficiency and optimal performance since the 1980’s, mainly due to its association with the automotive industry and Toyota. The management philosophy aims at elimination of waste, maximization of efficiency, and continuous improvement, which involves operational changes and, no less challenging, organizational changes, when converting into a lean strategy. The situation could be even more complicated when coming to the supply chain scenario, as firms have different value objectives and unaligned operation processes, even if they are trading partners. Lean principles improve overly complex and nonintegrated processes in which the benefits that lean contributes spread across entire supply chains, leading users to map their business processes to drive out wastes. Consequently, becoming a lean enterprise has the potential to improve operations, reduce costs and have tasks performed with shorter lead times.
The thesis consists of four refereed articles published in research journals and studies the adoption of lean principles in manufacturing and services representing businesses in two different supply chain directions: business-to-business exchanges between manufacturers and suppliers in upstream supply chains, and service operations at the customer touch points in downstream supply chains. Thus, the thesis attempts to identify adoption factors in both organizational and individual aspects in these two supply chain dimensions.
