2019

El objetivo principal de este trabajo es demostrar que el posicionamiento de los emisores de normas contables y el de los grupos de presión es coherente con la Teoría de la Ideología de la regulación y la Teoría Positiva de la Contabilidad de los efectos económicos, respectivamente. Sin embargo, contrariamente a la literatura previa de lobbying, argumentamos que en un contexto internacional y tras a˜nos de experiencia con las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera (NIIF), todos los agentes, y no solo los emisores de las normas, utilizan aspectos conceptuales y técnicos, ya que los grupos de interés, fundamentalmente los preparadores, prevén hacer más efectiva su actividad de lobby…

Newborn infants and the moral significance of intellectual disabilities.

2001

This article presents moral philosophical arguments regarding life-saving medical treatment that may be more available to infants without disabilities than to infants with intellectual disabilities. The ideas are that children with disabilities are a burden to their families and to society and that a happy life may not be attainable for these children and their families. I argue that human well-being is not based merely on individual characteristics, but is a result of the individual's relation to other people. Further, children with disabilities are not inevitably a burden to their families or society. Accordingly, intellectual disability is not a sufficient reason for withholding life-sa…

HOW TO IMPROVE METACOGNITION IN PRIMARY SCHOOL

2014

Educational and psychological research in the past decade has found that metacognitive capacity starts earlier than was initially realized; is more amenable to educational intervention than was previously thought; can be taught to a wide range of learners; and is both inherently contextual and a unique capacity that is distinguishable from intelligence, cognitive processes and motivation. In this paper we will see how metacognition can be improved in primary school pupils when teachers use instructional strategies that encourage meaningful learning, stimulate metacognitive reflection and provide continuous feedback. The purpose of this article is to explore the notion of metacognition with …

METAPHOR IN THE XXth CENTURY: TWO WAYS OF INTERPRETING THE CONCEPT

2018

Resumen El objetivo de este artículo es resumir, a través del análisis de las fuentes teóricas principales, el desarrollo de dos tradiciones en la interpretación de la metáfora. Simbólicamente las podemos denominar: 1) Visión formalista, centrada en la descripción de los rasgos de la metáfora, su estructura formal y las funciones que desempeña en un texto o un discurso; y 2) Visión pragmática y cognitiva que propone comprender la metáfora en relación con la situación comunicativa, mostrando también su papel como una de las cadenas básicas del pensamiento humano. Abstract The aim of this article is to summarize, through the analysis of the main theoretical sources, the development of two way…

Exploring pre-service special needs teachers’ assessment conceptions and assessment self-efficacy

2022

This survey study (N = 148) investigates the interrelationships between assessment conceptions, assessment self-efficacy, prior education, and teaching experience amongst Finnish pre-service special educational needs teachers (pre-service SENs). The results showed that assessment conceptions and assessment self-efficacy are intertwined. Assessment conceptions, prior studies, and teaching experience were clustered into three different pre-service SEN types: Assessment Positives, Assessment Cautious, and Assessment Criticals. Pre-service SENs with assessment-positive or assessment-cautious conceptions reported higher assessment self-efficacy than students with assessment-critical conceptions.…

Diverse yet similar : English teachers' conceptions of multicultural teaching and pupils of multicultural background

2010

Maahanmuuttajien määrä Suomessa on kasvanut viimeisten kahden vuosikymmenen aikana merkittävästi. Tämä on vaikuttanut myös suomalaisten koulujen väestörakenteeseen ja sitä kautta opettajien työhön. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, millaiset käsitykset yläkoulun englannin opettajilla on monikulttuurisesta opetuksesta ja maahanmuuttajaoppilaista ja miten he ovat selviytyneet opettajan arjesta monikielisessä luokkaympäristössä. Teoriataustan valossa tutkimuksessa haetaan vastauksia seuraaviin kysymyksiin: 1) Mitä englannin opettajat käsittävät termillä monikulttuurinen opetus? 2) Millaista englannin opettaminen heidän mielestään monikulttuurisessa luokkaympäristössä on? ja 3) Mitkä…

Aussi les méthodes destinées à tester le rôle des dispositifs de mise en forme revêtent-elles une importance capitale et sont présentées à la fin de cet ouvrage. Les spécificités des supports (document papier et document numérique) sont également abordées en termes de c…
