Factorial Validity and Reliability of the Curricular Goals in Physical Education Questionnaire
2015
This study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of an instrument designed to measure student perceptions of curricular goals in physical education, the Curricular Goals in Physical Education Questionnaire. Participants were 879 Finnish students from grades 7 to 9 (412 girls, 467 boys; mean age 13.81). An exploratory factor analysis was performed on Sample 1 (n = 287), revealing a four-factor solution and suggesting that factor structure be cross-validated with confirmatory factor analysis in Sample 2 (n = 592). Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated an acceptable fit and supported the four-factor model. Tests for gender invariance supported configural, metric, and scalar invaria…

Attitudes of general dental practitioners towards biopsy procedures
2011
Objectives: A dentist is required to detect and recognise oral lesions and inform the patient accordingly by providing a diagnosis and adequate treatment plan. Biopsy serves as an important aid in achieving this goal; however, its use is not so widespread in general dental practice. The objective of the present study was to explore the attitudes of general dental practitioners in Belgaum city towards biopsy for diagnosis of oral lesions. Material and methods: A self designed questionnaire was administered to 74 general dental practitioners in Belgaum city, in the southern region of India, consisting of several items addressing the socio-demographic and professional aspects and their attitud…
Los proyectos globalizados como instrumento de Formación del Profesorado
2004
Como grupo interdisciplinar de Investigación Docente (GIID) nuestro caminar ha estado presidido durante todo este tiempo por una idea constante, que nos ha guiado, sigue presente, y es el eje vertebrador de la experiencia que presentamos: mejorar nuestra metodología universitaria buscando modelos de formación que faciliten la relación de la teoría y la práctica y que acerquen a los futuros maestros a la realidad escolar para comprenderla y superarla. Desde esta perspectiva, en la realización de esta experiencia apostamos por la globalización como elemento fundamental para reformular la visión de la escuela como espacio abierto y comunitario que se prolonga más allá de las paredes de la inst…
Biology curriculum in twentieth-century Spain
1999
One hundred years of history of Spanish biology curricula are reviewed in this article. The aim of this analysis is focused on the relationship between socially con- troversial biological issues and the decisionmaking procedures in the construction of the national curricula published under the different regimes that have governed Spain over the last 100 years. The study covers the secondary level of schooling (age 10 up to university), and is based mainly on the data afforded by the official publications of the nine national curricula in twentieth-century Spain, and some of the main textbooks used for this schooling level. Special attention is given to the teaching of evolution, the most se…
L´éducation des éducateurs. Usages de la sociologie dans la formation des enseignants
2020
Dans cet article nous discutons la possibilité d'utiliser la sociologie pour renforcer l'efficacité de l'usage éducatif des sciences de l'éducation. Nous proposons que certains usages de la sociologie servent à construire la transition nécessaire entre les sciences sociales et les sciences de l'éducation. Notre engagement, en tant qu'enseignants et gestionnaires, dans la conception et la mise en œuvre des programmes d'études des diplômes en éducation infantile et en enseignement primaire et du master en enseignement secondaire, nous a permis d'agir dans une situation qui exigeait une réflexion sur la nécessaire action conjointe des deux types de sciences. Nous avons modélisé le système comp…

La enseñanza monumentalista y utilitarista de las causas de la biodiversidad y de las estrategias para su conservación: un estudio sobre la transposi…
2015
Este trabajo estudia la presencia y complejidad en el tratamiento de las causas de la biodiversidad y de las razones para su conservación que realizan manuales escolares de la Educación Secundaria de España. Para ello, se determinó el ámbito conceptual y axiológico que define la comunidad de expertos, se examinó el tratamiento propuesto en el currículo español y se analizaron 50 manuales escolares (27 de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria –ESO – y 30 del Bachillerato). Los resultados mostraron que el proceso de transposición didáctica vuelve monumentalista la enseñanza de la biodiversidad, ya que olvida las razones de su existencia, y se enriquece de connotaciones biologicistas y utilitari…
Robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) for esophageal cancer training curriculum—a worldwide Delphi consensus study
2021
Summary Background Structured training protocols can safely improve skills prior initiating complex surgical procedures such as robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE). As no consensus on a training curriculum for RAMIE has been established so far it is our aim to define a protocol for RAMIE with the Delphi consensus methodology. Methods Fourteen worldwide RAMIE experts were defined and were enrolled in this Delphi consensus project. An expert panel was created and three Delphi rounds were performed starting December 2019. Items required for RAMIE included, but were not limited to, virtual reality simulation, wet-lab training, proctoring, and continued monitoring and educa…
