University students’ (dis)engagement experiences in synchronous sessions during the COVID-19 pandemic

2022

In the past two years, student engagement in online learning situations has become a mutual concern for educators all over the world. The impact of working in online environments and using video and other communication channels on students’ learning experiences is still not fully understood. The present study addresses this question by drawing on students’ written reflections and interviews from the Finnish higher education context collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. It uses the qualitative method of thematic analysis to investigate students’ experiences of interacting in synchronous sessions and their perceptions on (dis)engagement. The analysis shows the importance of versatile teachi…

Teachers’ Emotional Intelligence, Burnout, Work Engagement, and Self-Efficacy during COVID-19 Lockdown

2023

Teachers’ psychological well-being is a crucial aspect that influences learning in a classroom climate. The aim of the study was to investigate teachers’ emotional intelligence, burnout, work engagement, and self-efficacy in times of remote teaching during COVID-19 lockdown. A sample of 65 teachers (Mage = 50.49), from early childhood through lower secondary education, were recruited during a period of school closure to answer self-report questionnaires and other measures assessing study variables. Results showed that during the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers reported higher levels of burnout and lower levels of self-esteem due to multiple challenges related to remote teaching and …

Experimental investigation on the efficiency of zinc(II) recovery from waste streams by TBP liquid-liquid extraction

2016

In many industrial processes the presence of zinc in the wastewater may represent an obstacle to its high efficient regeneration. This is the case of the treatment of spent pickling solutions aiming the recovery of hydrochloric acid via pyrohydrolysis techniques. Hydrochloric spent pickling solutions from steel processing contain relevant amount of metals such as iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) that may significantly affect recovery of hydrochloric acid (HCl) through pyrohydrolysis. In fact, although Fe may be recovered as ferric oxide (Fe2O3) and does not have a substantial effect on pyrohydrolysis process, zinc chloride (ZnCl2) evaporating can occlude nozzles and stick to the pyrohydrolysis react…

Recovering of zinc(II) from spent pickling solutions by liquid-liquid extraction

2015

Hydrochloric acid can be successfully recovered from spent pickling liquors with high efficiencies via pyrohydrolysis techniques. In the pickling solution feed, other metallic ions are typically present besides iron (mainly Fe2+) such as zinc(II). In order to avoid undesirable effects, zinc(II) has to be removed, because zinc chloride evaporates and sticks to the reactor walls, as well as it contaminates iron oxides product1. Moreover, zinc recovery is economically affordable because it allows the marketing of some products such as ZnCl2 and ZnSO4. In the present work, liquid-liquid extraction process has been selected to recover zinc(II) from pickling liquors, using suitable extractant age…

“I Like to Keep my Archaeology Dead”. Alienation and Othering of the Past as an Ethical Problem

2019

As archaeologists, we have to deal with the dead, and as David Clarke once said, we like to keep our archaeology dead. From an epistemological perspective, alienation from the dead seems almost inevitable; otherwise, we would only project today’s conditions onto the past. Therefore, the past must be, and must remain, a foreign country. These alienating processes have ethical implications, however, especially when it comes to the study of human remains. In this article, we analyze the structures within the scientific discipline of archaeology that normalize practices, such as the labeling of human bone material during excavations and the object-like display of skeletons in museums. We argue …

Nuevos elementos de análisis sobre 'Onoba' (Huelva)

2003

En este trabajo se dan a conocer los resultados de la intervención arqueológica en un solar de la calle Arquitecto Pérez Carasa de Huelva, en la que se documentó una estructura doméstica de época romana. El abandono de esta edificación, paralela a la amortización por la misma época de otras construcciones públicas romanas en Huelva, nos lleva a plantear que estos cambios pudieran tener su origen en un cambio de estatuto jurídico de la ciudad en época flavia y con una reforma urbana después de acceder al rango de municipium.

Latvijas kredītiestāžu klientu izpētes veikšanas problemātika starptautisko un nacionālo prasību ievērošanas kontekstā

2021

Starptautisko ekspertu (MONEYVAL) 2018. gada neapmierinošs vērtējums par Latvijas valsts spējām nepieļaut savas finanšu sistēmas izmantošanu noziedzīgi iegūtu līdzekļu legalizēšanai, kā arī potenciālie draudi tikt iekļautai “pelēkajā sarakstā”, rezultējās valdības lēmumā par finanšu sektora “kapitālo remontu”. Veiktās izmaiņas, t.sk. normatīvajā regulējumā, tika atzinīgi novērtētas no starptautisko ekspertu puses, tomēr šobrīd, pētot notikušo pārmaiņu samērīgumu un ietekmi tiesību zinātnieki, finansisti un ekonomisti nonāk pie secinājumiem, ka veicot “kapitālo remontu” esam pārcentušies. Praksē tas izpaužas virknē problēmu, piemērām, pārspīlēti detalizētā regulējumā, kas pēc būtības ietekmē…
