Fomento del Mobile Learning en educación alrededor de la última década. Un estudio de caso en españa través de una selección de aportaciones.

2020

En la actualidad educativa las TIC han propiciado de manera inevitable el uso de los dispositivos móviles en el aula y en concreto del teléfono móvil como herramienta educativa. Desde hace años se desarrolla literatura al respecto y se han llevado a cabo proyectos y actividades educativas que lo promocionan. Se trata de una de las metodologías educativas emergentes que ha ido en aumento paulatinamente, se va integrando en la escuela tímidamente y, en algunos casos, con ciertos prejuicios sobre su uso. El siguiente escrito aborda el desarrollo del Mobile Learningo Aprendizaje en Movilidad en la segunda década del siglo XXI en el Estado Español. Damos cuenta de la divulgación científica acont…

The diffusion and use of information and communication technologies and the city from 1996 to 2009

2013

The aim of this paper is to investigate whether the diffusion and the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) are associated with the size of the place of residence where people live. The article explores how the relationship between ICTs and place of residence changed between 1996 and 2009. The study presents data from two consecutive telephone surveys collected from Italy, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain. Results show an unexpected role of the relatively rural areas as attractor of new technologies. Although the largest cities have remained the locus of telecommunications on the whole, the relationship between ICTs and the place of abode has changed consider…

Mobile phone addiction: a point of issue.

Is the French mobile phone cartel really a cartel?

2009

International audience; France Telecom (FT), SFR and Bouygues Telecom (BT) have been fined by France's Conseil de la Concurrence (CC) for organizing a mobile phone cartel with stable market shares (one-half, one-third and one-sixth, respectively) and for directly exchanging commercial information. While not contesting the legal decision, it is argued here that the economic reasoning is flawed. (1) As the CC made much of the firms' stable market shares, we have first followed this line of reasoning by considering that the market shares are quotas under uniform costs. Even if there is a general incentive to form a monopolistic cartel, BT was too small for it to be worth its while to join it; it i…

Barriers to the use of mobile sales force automation systems: a salesperson’s perspective

2015

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the barriers associated with the adoption and use of mobile sales force automation (SFA) systems from a salesperson’s perspective. Design/methodology/approach – A qualitative investigation of two business-to-business companies was conducted. Data collected from ten semi-structured interviews with directors or sales managers were analyzed to understand the main barriers to SFA system adoption. Findings – The study confirms the existence of three barriers (customer knowledge, quality of information and the characteristics of mobile devices) to a mobile SFA system use and identifies two additional barriers: lack of time and optimization issues…

Der kontrastive Ansatz in der Ausspracheschulung. Am Beispiel von DaF für Lerner mit Italienisch als Muttersprache

2021

Every learner has the right to acquire a good pronunciation, but unfortunately today, phonetics still plays a secondary role to grammar and vocabulary training in the classroom. Furthermore, it is primarily treated from an orthoepic point of view. This contribution presents a contrastive approach to phonetics. It explains why learners have a “foreign accent” and what contrastive pronunciation training should include as well as precisely what contrastive listening, contrastive background knowledge and contrastive exercises mean. It is limited to learners of German as a foreign language with Italian as their mother tongue.

Implementation of laser speckle contrast analysis as connection kit for mobile phone for assessment of skin blood flow

2014

Laser speckle contrast analysis (LASCA) offers a non-contact, full-field, and real-time mapping of capillary blood flow and can be considered as an alternative method to Laser Doppler perfusion imaging. LASCA technique has been implemented in several commercial instruments. However, these systems are still too expensive and bulky to be widely available. Several optical techniques have found new implementations as connection kits for mobile phones thus offering low cost screening devices. In this work we demonstrate simple implementation of LASCA imaging technique as connection kit for mobile phone for primary low-cost assessment of skin blood flow. Stabilized 650 nm and 532 nm laser diode m…

O galego-português, matriz do mundo lingüístico luso-brasileiro

2021

O período inicial desta breve história da língua galega e o reintegracionismo lingüístico começa com umhas observaçons de umha «Carta» de Martim Sarmiento (1695-1771), precursor da filologia galega, e finaliza em 2019, ano em que a Real Academia Galega (RAG), toma o acordo de dedicar-lhe o «Dia das Letras Galegas» ao polígrafo ferrolano Ricardo Carvalho Calero (Ferrol 1910 - Santiago de Compostela 1990). Elaboram-se apenas umhas ideias sobre o século XIX e primeira metade do XX; mais informaçom aparece sobre a segunda metade do século passado e primeiras décadas do XXI.

Idiomatic intonation and forensic phonetics: sociolinguistic and dialectal information from intonation in Spanish

2015

Las investigaciones de carácter geoprosódico realizadas sobre el español y sus variedades ponen en evidencia que la entonación puede reportar importantes beneficios a la fonética forense, ya que esta lleva asociada información de carácter dialectal y sociolingüístico de especial relevancia sobre el individuo –grupo sociocultural al que pertenece, origen geográfico, medio social en el que se inserta–, además de otros rasgos, cualidades o circunstancias como la edad, el sexo, o incluso su temperamento, carácter o estado de ánimo. Para ello se hace necesario no solo saber qué parámetros acústicos suprasegmentales son relevantes para la identificación del hablante, sino también analizar la vari…

On stress production in whispered Finnish

1987

We have compared sentence stress production in normal phonation and whisper in two native speakers of Finnish using acoustical analysis, esophageal pressure measurements and electromyography. The average peak values of the fundamental frequency, intensity, esophageal pressure and the EMG recordings from the thyroarytenoid and cricothyroid muscles were measured and their intercorrelations were calculated. In normal speech the cricothyroid activity and the subglottal pressure showed a significant correlation with the peak values of the acoustical indicators of stress for both subjects. The thyroarytenoid muscle showed a statistically significant correlation with the fundamental frequency for …
