Successive education reforms of advanced-level music teaching have greatly increased the workload of future professionals. However, these reforms have not brought about curricular changes in the work situation, clearly related to teaching at different levels. This article offers a comparative analysis of the curricula of the different autonomous communities, and concludes with a number of suggestions on how to improve educational training for clarinet graduates.
Teachers’ intention to use educational video games: The moderating role of gender and age
2018
Educational video games represent an educational change that challenges teachers and managers of Higher Education institutions in several ways including their attitude formation and behavioural intention. Using a Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) approach a research model is developed to predict teachers’ behavioural intention to use educational video games in their courses. The research model is tested via structural equation modelling (SEM) on a sample of 312 Higher Education teachers. Main results suggest that perceived usefulness influences in a direct and positive way teachers’ behavioural intention while perceived ease of use indirectly influences intention through perceived usefulnes…

The cytoprotective protein MANF promotes neuronal survival independently from its role as a GRP78 cofactor
2021
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-stress-regulated protein exhibiting cytoprotective properties through a poorly understood mechanism in various in vitro and in vivo models of neuronal and non-neuronal damage. Although initially characterized as a secreted neurotrophic factor for midbrain dopamine neurons, MANF has recently gained more interest for its intracellular role in regulating the ER homeostasis, including serving as a cofactor of the chaperone glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78). We aimed for a better understanding of the neuroprotective mechanisms of MANF. Here we show for the first time that MANF promotes the survival of …
Evaluation of the position of the posterior superior alveolar artery in relation to the maxillary sinus using the Cone-Beam computed tomography scans
2017
Background The aim of the present study was to evaluate the diameter, relationship and position of the posterior superior alveolar artery and its relationship with the alveolar ridge, the medial wall of the maxillary sinus, the prevalence of pathologic conditions and the maxillary sinus septa on CBCT images. Material and Methods A total of 200 CBCT images (400 maxillary sinuses) of patients over 20 years of age were evaluated. The distances between the lower border of the artery and the alveolar crest and between the artery and the medial wall of the sinus and the diameter of the artery were measured. The position of the artery, the presence of pathologic conditions and septa were recorded …
Acceptability of the e-authentication in higher education studies: views of students with special educational needs and disabilities
2021
AbstractTrust-based e-assessment systems are increasingly important in the digital age for both academic institutions and students, including students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Recent literature indicates a growing number of studies about e-authentication and authorship verification for quality assurance with more flexible modes of assessment. Yet understanding the acceptability of e-authentication systems among SEND students is underexplored. This study examines SEND students’ views about the use of e-authentication systems, including perceived advantages and disadvantages of new technology-enhanced assessment. This study aims to shed light on this area by exa…
Higher education instructors' intention to use educational video games: an fsQCA approach
2019
Educational video games (EVGs) offer instructors a myriad of opportunities to motivate and engage students in the learning process. Nevertheless, instructors can be influenced by barriers that prevent them from using EVGs in their courses (e.g. lack of expertise with EVGs). Instructors can also be influenced by different drivers that might increase their intention to use EVGs. This research analyses the effects of four variables (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attention, and relevance) as factors contributing or preventing the use of EVGs by instructors serving in Higher Education institutions. Data of 170 instructors, who were surveyed through an online questionnaire using a …
Flipped classroom in COVID-19 times: a cross-talking perspective
2020
La COVID-19 ha generado una serie de cambios en las diferentes esferas de nuestras vidas. Estos cambios han sido especialmente visibles en el ámbito educativo, donde ha sido necesario repensar los procesos formativos de forma urgente en términos de no presencialidad. En base a esta situación, el presente trabajo presenta una experiencia de Flipped learning llevada a cabo con los estudiantes del primer curso del Grado en Pedagogía de la Universitat de València. Asimismo, se propone un análisis sobre la concepción previa de los estudiantes sobre esta metodología y su percepción tras finalizar su implementación, ofreciendo una visión trasversal. Para ello, se ha recogido la información de los …
Analysis of surrogacy motherhood as a new technology in the biomedical and legal-philosophical field: technical advance, human recoil
2019
[EN] Surrogate motherhood is a question that has appeared in recent times, with increasing incidence, at present. The economic, political and media powers have brought a strictly technical concept to the public in order to familiarize them with this technique. This strategy has been based on the natural tendency to consider that any technological advance is good in itself, so that they have not been reviewed and made available to the citizens, in a reasonable manner, none of the issues that should be dealt with this technique. Thus, it is worth making a study of the regulations and jurisprudence of the assumptions that have been taking place and considering the reality that this formulation…
