La propiocepción como estrategia didáctica en la enseñanza de la pronunciación
2021
En este artículo se presenta una propuesta didáctica para la enseñanza y la mejora de la pronunciación de estudiantes de español. La propuesta se enmarca en el paradigma comunicativo y en los principios de la didáctica en enseñanza de las lenguas. La propuesta desarrolla un método de enseñanza de la pronunciación basado en el modelo de doble ruta psicolingüístico y para la intervención se apoya en el paradigma propioceptivo, entendido desde una perspectiva holística donde la percepción y la producción se engloban dentro del acto comunicativo. La propuesta comienza con una evaluación de las dificultades en pronunciación que guíe la elaboración del plan de enseñanza personalizado según las di…
Una herramienta didáctica para la aplicabilidad del componente pragmático en E/LE :
2021
Enseñar español implica algo más que cubrir contenidos léxico-gramaticales e introducir a los alumnos en la herencia cultural o histórica del país que lo acoge. Olvidar que una lengua se inscribe en unas coordenadas pragmático-sociales tiende a convertirse con frecuencia en una asignatura pendiente en la enseñanza de una lengua extranjera, dada la subjetivad que entraña su tratamiento en el aula. La necesidad de concienciación de que nuestros estudiantes adquieran una competencia pragmático-intercultural[1]—además de una meramente lingüística— empieza a pesar sobre los hombros del profesor de E/LE por falta de herramientas didácticas específicas. Por todo ello, este artículo describe y pres…
The Role of Dispositional Orientations and Goal Motives on Athletes' Well- and Ill-Being
2021
Findings in different contexts suggest that task orientation and ego orientation are related to adaptive and maladaptive motivational patterns, respectively. In sport, these personal dispositions could influence other important variables such as the goals that athletes pursue (and why they pursue them) during the season and their well- and ill-being. The main purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between athletes’ dispositional goal orientations, their goal motives, and their reported well-being (subjective vitality) and ill-being (physical and emotional exhaustion). The study involved 414 Spanish university athletes (206 female and 208 male) with an age range of 17…
El choque cultural entre los profesores hispanos y el alumnado chino : Quejas del alumnado ante el enfoque comunicativo y posibles soluciones
2021
El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo mostrar las diferencias culturales que acontecen en el aula de enseñanza de español de diferentes universidades de China. La investigación se centra en la valoración del enfoque comunicativo por parte de los estudiantes, basándonos en un diseño mixto de datos cualitativos y cuantitativos. Los resultados de investigaciones anteriores realizadas a profesores de lengua inglesa muestran que los estudiantes chinos poseen un bajo nivel de adaptación ante los métodos de enseñanza que practican los profesores extranjeros, por este motivo, mediante la presente investigación, tratará de ver si sucede lo mismo con las clases de ELE de los profesores hispanos, pa…

Effects of essential oils of Origanum vulgare L. (Fam. Labiatee), Pelargonium odoratissimum L. (Fam. Geraniaceae) and Syzygium aromaticum L. (Fam. Mi…
2021
The cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover (Homoptera: Aphidiidae), is a cosmopolitan and highly polyphagous species causing serious economic damage to numerous plants including Cucurbitaceae. The use of synthetic insecticides represent the main method of control of this aphid, often resulting in resistance to all the major insecticide group. The use of natural products, such as essential oils (EOs), has increased in recent years because they have advantages in reduction of this resistance. Within this research area, we have implement and evaluate the applications of EOs that aim at reinforcing knowledge on the control of this aphid. We investigated the topical application of the EOs of Origan…
Silicate and Hydroxide Concentration Influencing the Properties of Composite Al2O3-TiO2 PEO Coatings on AA7075 Alloy
2021
This work evaluates the effect of sodium meta-silicate pentahydrate (SMS) and potassium hydroxide concentrations on properties of Al2O3-TiO2 coatings produced through plasma electrolytic oxidation in a solution containing 3 g L−1 potassium titanyl oxalate, (PTO), using a unipolar waveform with constant current density. The surface and cross-section characteristics of PEO coatings including morphology, elemental distribution, and phase composition were evaluated using FESEM, EDS, and XRD techniques. Voltage-time response indicated the concentration of SMS and KOH had a significant effect on the duration of each stage of the PEO process. More cracks and pores were formed at the higher concent…

2021
Presentamos una propuesta didáctica para alumnos de un nivel B2.2 orientada al trabajo de los marcadores discursivos más interactivos en la clase de E/LE. Esta propuesta integra las nociones de posición y ámbito para trabajar con marcadores polifuncionales y conversacionales. Tras una revisión de diferentes materiales didácticos con el fin de detectar el modo en el que se enseñan los marcadores, ofrecemos una secuencia de tres sesiones que toma la idea de (in)corrección política y los debates televisivos como punto de partida.
We need you, Uncle Sam: Images of the USA Entry into World War I in Polish School History Textbooks During the First Two Decades of the Twenty-first …
2021
This paper presents an analysis of the content of Polish school textbooks for teaching history in the context of the USA’s entry into World War I in 1917. School textbooks have been chosen as the dominant source of student history knowledge. Fourteen textbooks were analysed: seven for the third stage of education (lower secondary schools) and seven for the fourth stage (upper secondary schools, technical schools). These were used between 2001 and 2017. The USA’s entry into the Great War undoubtedly had a decisive impact on the outcome of the global conflict. The article shows the way in which this subject was presented to students in schools. We analyse the information contained in the text…
Foundations for Esports Curricula in Higher Education
2021
Esports has generated an industry of increasing economic and cultural importance. In recent years, universities and other higher education institutions have responded to its growth by establishing programmes of study which aim to satisfy the needs of innovators operating in the area. However, there is not yet consensus on what an esports curriculum should include. Despite being a technology-driven sector with ethical and professional dimensions that intersect computing, current ACM and IEEE curricula do not mention esports. Furthermore, existing courses tend to provide teaching and training on a wide variety of topics aside from those traditionally in computer science. These include: live e…
Inter-Element Crack Propagation with High-Order Stress Equilibrium Element
2021
The present contribution proposes a formulation based on the use of hybrid equilibrium elements (HEEs), for the analysis of inter-element delamination and fracture propagation problems. HEEs are defined in terms of quadratic stress fields, which strongly verify both the homogeneous and inter-element equilibrium equations and they are employed with interfaces, initially exhibiting rigid behavior, embedded at the elements’ sides. The interface model is formulated in terms of the same degrees of freedom of the HEE, without any additional burden. The cohesive zone model (CZM) of the extrinsic interface is rigorously developed in the damage mechanics framework, with perfect adhesion at the pre-…
Cognition in Interaction : Challenges in Assessing Persons with Sensory and Multiple disabilities
2021
This article reports a qualitative study of cognitive assessments of three teenagers with sensory and multiple disabilities, including moderate to profound developmental disability. The aim was to evaluate the possibilities for adapting standardized tests and the implementation of interactional partnership in assessment. Cognitive assessments were made with an individually-adapted psychological assessment tool, the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development. The assessment situations were video-recorded and analyzed based on sociocultural theories of early interaction, dynamic assessment, and the bodily-tactile modality of cognition. The results showed that the requirements for assessm…

The use of an integrative approach to identify coelomocytes in three species of the genus Holothuria (Echinodermata)
2021
Coelomocytes in the Holothuroidea are traditionally identified according to their morphology through light, fluorescence, or electron microscopy. Former studies have typically used only one method, with few works combining two or more approaches. Studies using cytocentrifugation to study these cells are scarcer. Thus, for the first time, an integrative approach was used to compare coelomocytes in Holothuroidea. This approach consisted of living and stained cells, scanning electron microscopy (for spherule cells), and accurate morphometric analyses. Specifically, we used specimens of Holothuria grisea, Holothuria arenicola, and Holothuria tubulosa to test whether cytocentrifugation could be …

El problema de la enseñanza de los marcadores discursivos y su visualización: sobre “bueno” en la conversación coloquial española
2021
El presente trabajo reflexiona sobre la visualización de las funciones de los marcadores discursivos en el aula de E/LE, tomando como ejemplo la forma bueno. Esta visualización parte del modelo Val.Es.Co. para la segmentación del habla y articula las funciones de este marcador según su posición estructural y el ámbito sobre una unidad discursiva u otra. Esta metodología no solo resulta útil para la descripción lingüística, sino también para la enseñanza de los marcadores. La simplificación de esta metodología ofrece una visualización cuyas posibilidades, en último término, problematizamos.
La Gramática Cognitiva en los manuales de ELE: análisis y propuesta metodológica
2021
La Gramática Cognitiva es una de las propuestas metodológicas para la enseñanza de ELE que más presencia tiene en las aulas en la actualidad. Los manuales se hacen eco de ello y en las últimas décadas son más los materiales que se elaboran adoptando este enfoque para la enseñanza de las estructuras gramaticales. Con este trabajo se pretende analizar la manera en la que estos manuales aplican los principios metodológicos de la GC y cómo pueden los docentes identificar cuáles lo hacen y en qué grado. Para ello, se propone una ficha de análisis que pretende detectar los puntos clave de la GC en los manuales.

Propuesta didáctica de interacción oral para estudiantes de ELE de nivel A1 en un entorno de enseñanza a distancia digital :
2021
La interacción oral ha permanecido marginada en la enseñanza de lenguas a distancia, tanto en el aula como fuera de ella con tareas que consisten en ejercicios escritos. Presentamos una propuesta didáctica basada en la combinación del enfoque por tareas y del enfoque léxico para estudiantes de ELE de nivel A1, en un entorno de enseñanza a distancia digital, centrada en la interacción oral. Unimos sincronía y asincronía para proponer que es posible la práctica de esta destreza en cursos de ELE a distancia, tanto en tiempo real como con la asignación de tareas orales, como defiende Méndez García (2010), mediante cuatro herramientas tecnológicas: Zoom, Flipgrid, Voxopop y WhatsApp. El resultad…
La nuova categoria dei lavoratori sportivi tra professionismo e dilettantismo
2021
The Italian legislative decree of 28 February 2021, 36, has deeply amended the regulations on sports employment contractsThe essay focuses particularly on a few aspects of the reform which have not been addressed properly, since the reform appears to be, in several parts, not taking into account the actual situation of the amateur sport. More specifically, by equalizing situations that differ from each other, the reform appears to have failed to take into proper consideration the peculiarities and the actual development of the relationships that arise in the varied sports world�
Transcriptomic Analysis of the Pistacia vera (L.) Fruits Enable the Identification of Genes and Hormone-Related Gene Linked to Inflorescence Bud Absc…
2021
Pistacia vera (L.) is an alternate bearing species. The tree produces axillary inflorescence buds every year. Still, they abscise in “ON” overloaded shoots, causing a limited production in the following “OFF” year, causing a significant and unfavorable production fluctuation. In this work, we carried out de novo discovery and transcriptomic analysis in fruits of “ON” and “OFF” shoots of the cultivar Bianca. We also investigated whether the fruit signaling pathway and hormone biosynthesis directly or indirectly linked to the premature fall of the inflorescence buds causing alternate bearing. We identified 1536 differentially expressed genes (DE…

Relationship between weather regimes and atmospheric rivers in East Antarctica.
2021
25 pages; International audience; Here, we define weather regimes in the East Antarctica—Southern Ocean sector based on daily anomalies of 700 hPa geopotential height derived from ERA5 reanalysis during 1979–2018. Most regimes and their preferred transitions depict synoptic-scale disturbances propagating eastwards off the Antarctic coastline. While regime sequences are generally short, their interannual variability is strongly driven by the polarity of the Southern Annular Mode (SAM). Regime occurrences are then intersected with atmospheric rivers (ARs) detected over the same region and period. ARs are equiprobable throughout the year, but clearly concentrate during regimes associated with …
Progetto sostenibile di edilizia residenziale a Marsala: “Casa Salina”
2021
The present research work aims at the design of a sustainable building, a small holiday home single-family house in Villaggio San Teodoro, Marsala (TP). A territorial classification, the assessment of the climatic data and a study of the solar paths made possible the most passive strategies for the improvement of indoor and outdoor comfort. Interesting and reasoned was the study of the prevailing winds and the relative positioning and sizing of the openings, including on the roof, in order to favor natural ventilation inside the building. The effectiveness of these solutions have been proven by fluid dynamics analyzes with Ansys Fluent software, Revit and Daylight Visualizer in order to det…
Regionalna polityka bezpieczeństwa w ruchu drogowym na terenie województwa opolskiego
2021
Transport drogowy jest kluczowym czynnikiem mającym wpływ na funkcjonowanie wielu dziedzin. Województwo opolskie, mimo że jest najmniejsze spośród wszystkich 16 województw, na przestrzeni ostatnich 15 lat odnotowało dwukrotny wzrost liczby samochodów osobowych. Warto podkreślić, że najwięcej samochodów osobowych na 1000 mieszkańców zarejestrowanych jest w dwóch najmniejszych pod względem liczby mieszkańców powiatach. Oczywiste jest, że zwiększona liczba samochodów poruszających się po drogach ma wpływ na wzrost zagrożenia zdarzeniami drogowymi. Tym samym, aby przedsięwzięcia podejmowane w zakresie bezpieczeństwa w ruchu drogowym przyniosły pożądane efekty, nie mogą być zamknięte w ramy gran…
Non-supersymmetric AdS6 and the swampland
2021
We discuss infinite families of non-supersymmetric AdS$_6$ solutions in Type IIB string theory. They are siblings of supersymmetric solutions which are associated with $(p,q)$ 5-brane webs and holographically dual to 5d SCFTs engineered by those brane webs. The non-supersymmetric backgrounds carry identical 5-brane charges and are connected to the supersymmetric ones by RG flows. We study the stability of the non-supersymmetric solutions, identifying perturbative and non-perturbative decay channels for all the backgrounds explicitly available. We also identify likely decay mechanisms for solutions that have not been constructed explicitly but may be expected to exist based on brane web cons…
On Formalizing Logical Modalities
2021
This paper is in the scope of the philosophy of modal logic; more precisely, it concerns the semantics of modal logic, when the modal elements are interpreted as logical modalities. Most authors have thought that the logic for logical modality—that is, the one to be used to formalize the notion of logical truth (and other related notions)—is to be found among logical systems in which modalities are allowed to be iterated. This has raised the problem of the adequacy, to that formalization purpose, of some modal schemes, such as S4 and S5 . It has been argued that the acceptance of S5 leads to non-normal modal systems, in which the uniform substitution rule fails. The thesis supported in this…

Disability in Older People and Socio-Economic Deprivation in Italy: Effects on the Care Burden and System Resources
2021
The sustainability of European Long-Term Care systems faces the demographic and socio-economic circumstances, mainly the increasing ageing of the population, with its chronic disease conditions, and the simultaneous economic general crises, exacerbated by the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond the increase in general rate of relative poverty, there is a higher risk of poverty among elderly and families in a high demand of care, especially if situations of Activities Daily Living (ADL) disability are present. Italian welfare, which is based on family care regimes and regional strategies, and is oriented to private or public care, is a relevant case study with which to analyze such a relationsh…
Warunki praktykowania edukacji domowej w Polsce
2021
The article concerns the subject of homeschooling practice conditions in Poland – it focuses on the legal conditions and outlines the socio-economic conditions in which Polish homeschoolers operate. It discusses the specific kind of right which is the right to education, its position in the systematics of the constitution and the connection to the learning duty and school duty. It brings attention to state-citizen relations and the rule of state subsidiarity. It points to legal regulations which allow realization of the school duty outside of school, underlining the controversial and discriminatory regulations which ignore the parents’ priority to decide on their own children’s education an…
