Edgar Schein developed the concept of career anchors/values, which reflect deep aspects of a person like autonomy and security that they would not give up. Schein identified that considering values can predict satisfying versus dissatisfying occupations, as roles aligned with one's values lead to greater satisfaction and performance. Values exercises help individuals identify their most important values like independence, responsibility, and autonomy to consider in career decisions.
Edgar Schein developed the concept of career anchors/values, which reflect deep aspects of a person like autonomy and security that would not be given up. Schein identified that considering values can predict satisfying versus dissatisfying occupations. Values are beliefs, principles, and standards important to a person for their job and career. When considering career opportunities, it is important to determine if one's core values can be satisfied. A role aligned with one's values results in greater satisfaction and performance long-term.

La presentación introduce la ropa inteligente y explica que puede vigilar la salud del usuario. La ropa inteligente tiene la capacidad de recibir información del entorno y responder de manera funcional. Actualmente existen empresas dedicadas a desarrollar ropa inteligente que ofrezca servicios o valor agregado, más allá de solo proveer abrigo o estilo.
Este documento describe las características de los calcetines para llantas RUDmatic Soft Spike, que proporcionan una gran tracción en carreteras invernales cubiertas de nieve o hielo. Estos calcetines contienen fibras de metal enrolladas que permiten profundizar en superficies resbaladizas de manera similar a un clavo, mejorando la tracción y distancia de frenado. Las fibras de textiles y metal proporcionan puntos de agarre tanto en la nieve como en el hielo, mejorando la seguridad.
La biotecnología se aplica en diversas industrias como la salud, agricultura, medio ambiente y textiles. En la industria textil, la biotecnología se usa en procesos como el diseño de microorganismos para producir químicos y enzimas para la fabricación de textiles. La industria curtiembre convierte pieles animales en cuero mediante procesos como la limpieza, curtido y acabado, generando desechos que pueden contaminar el medio ambiente.
Este documento describe los avances en fibras y tejidos inteligentes que pueden cambiar sus propiedades en respuesta a estímulos ambientales como la luz, el sonido o la temperatura. Algunos ejemplos incluyen calcetines que favorecen la cicatrización, sábanas antiestrés y ropa interior antiolor con plata. El documento también analiza una actividad didáctica donde estudiantes diseñaron vestuarios para muñecos usando fibras inteligentes, mostrando creatividad pero poco conocimiento técnico. Finalmente,
Ropa inteligente gracias a la nanotecnologíaJosé Mena
La nanotecnología aplicada a la ropa ofrece grandes beneficios como la auto-limpieza, la repelencia a manchas y la capacidad de generar electricidad con el movimiento. Esto permitirá el desarrollo de ropa inteligente con funciones como escuchar música, cargar dispositivos electrónicos y protegerse de virus y bacterias, revolucionando la industria textil.
El documento describe varias máquinas y sistemas para el procesamiento de textiles, incluyendo máquinas para corte, secado, enrollado y acabados de tejidos. También describe sistemas para alimentar, almacenar, mezclar, deshilachar, prensar, empacar y regenerar materiales textiles.
Los textiles inteligentes son materiales que pueden cambiar sus propiedades en respuesta a estímulos externos para brindar beneficios adicionales a los usuarios. Se clasifican como pasivos, activos o muy activos dependiendo de su capacidad para reaccionar o adaptarse a los cambios. Un ejemplo son los textiles con memoria de forma que pueden cambiar de forma temporalmente deformada a su forma original al exponerlos al calor. Otro es el oricalco textil que usa aleaciones como el nitinol para cambiar automáticamente de vestimenta.
Este documento describe diferentes tipos de materiales inteligentes o multifuncionales que pueden responder a estímulos externos como la luz, electricidad, temperatura y campos magnéticos. Incluye materiales piezoeléctricos, electrocrómicos, fotocrómicos y termocrómicos, así como aleaciones de nitinol y displays de cristal líquido. Estos materiales se usan en una variedad de aplicaciones como sensores, actuadores, pantallas, ortodoncia y control de procesos industriales.

Ricardo Mejia Sarmiento is an industrial and strategic design thinker with over 14 years of experience in product design, experience design, and user research. He has worked as an independent consultant, advisor for the government sector in Colombia, director of research and innovation departments, and lecturer at various universities. Currently, he is a PhD fellow at Delft University of Technology focused on developing future scenarios and concept products through design. His professional focus is on environmental and social responsibility.
The document discusses the limitations that designers and technologists may face due to their different backgrounds and expertise. Designers from non-technical backgrounds may not be able to fully evaluate the technical feasibility or costs of a design concept. Technologists focused on science and engineering may ignore usability or sustainability factors or be unaware of user needs. The document proposes collaborations between design and technology students to help bridge these gaps, such as team projects, knowledge sharing forums, and mentorship from faculty.
