A Curvature Based Method for Blind Mesh Visual Quality Assessment Using a General Regression Neural Network
2016
International audience; No-reference quality assessment is a challenging issue due to the non-existence of any information related to the reference and the unknown distortion type. The main goal is to design a computational method to objectively predict the human perceived quality of a distorted mesh and deal with the practical situation when the reference is not available. In this work, we design a no reference method that relies on the general regression neural network (GRNN). Our network is trained using the mean curvature which is an important perceptual feature representing the visual aspect of a 3D mesh. Relatively to the human subjective scores, the trained network successfully asses…
STUDY OF SAGITTAL SPINAL ROM IN ELDERLY WOMEN AFTER A SPECIFIC FLEXIBILITY-TRAINING PROGRAM
2013
The reduction of spinal mobility is one luckless consequence of the aging process. In particular, scarcity of exercise appears to be the principal reason of aging-related spinal dysfunction syndrome, which is characterized by adaptive shortening of soft tissue and a partial loss of range of spinal motion (1). Several recommendations promoting the spinal flexibility in elderly people are based on stretching programs that include static and ballistic exercises and PNF techniques (2). Several studies showed that specific training programs could improve body balance (3), bodyweight distribution on feet (4), muscle strength and flexibility (5) in elders. In particular, Imagama et al. (2011) show…
La consapevolezza professionale. Flipped e sviluppo delle 4C nella formazione iniziale degli insegnanti.
2017
Nella ricerca, svolta durante l'a.a. 2014/2015 ci siamo proposti di individuare un modello di acquisizione della competenze digitale e delle 4C (comunicazione, collaborazione, pensiero critico e creatività) degli studenti del Corso di Laurea in Scienze della Formazione Primaria in vista di un reale sviluppo della consapevolezza professionale. Si è adottata le metodologia della ricerca su progetti. La ricerca ha previsto tre fasi. Gli strumenti di ricerca utilizzati nelle prima due fasi dell'intervento hanno consentito di valutare alcuni aspetti essenziali per impostare successivamente un modello di didattica universitaria volta a promuovere il processo di maturazione professionale degli stu…
Effect of the Game Design, the Goal Type and the Number of Players on Intensity of Play in Small-Sided Soccer Games in Youth Elite Players
2015
Abstract The aim of this study was to compare the effects of game design modification, the type of the goal and the number of players on the intensity of play in small-sided soccer games (SSGs) in youth elite players. Twenty young soccer players (age 13.7 ± 0.5 years, body mass 57.4 ± 7.8 kg, body height 1.67 ± 7.8 m, maximal heart rate 201.1 ± 8.2 beats/min) performed three types of SSGs (possession play (PP) vs. regular goals (RG) vs. small goals (SG)) in both four-a-side and six-a-side formats. The heart rate responses were recorded and analysed as an indicator of the intensity of play. The four-a-side format obtained higher intensity of play than six-a-side for PP (p<0.05), but not f…
Adherence to an Injury Prevention Warm-Up Program in Children’s Soccer : A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial
2021
This study examined the impact of high adherence to a neuromuscular training (NMT) warm-up on the risk of lower extremity (LE) injuries in children’s soccer. Twenty U11–U14 youth clubs (n = 92 teams, 1409 players) were randomized into intervention (n = 44 teams) and control (n = 48 teams) groups. The intervention group was advised to perform an NMT warm-up 2 to 3 times a week for 20 weeks. Team adherence, injuries, and exposure were registered throughout the follow-up. Primary outcomes were the incidence of soccer-related acute LE injuries and the prevalence of overuse LE injuries. Intervention teams conducted mean 1.7 (SD 1.0) NMT warm-ups weekly through follow-up. The seasonal trend for a…
Opettaja- ja opettajankoulutustarpeiden ennakoinnin tuloksia
2011
Opettajan ammattia koskevan kiinnostuksen on havaittu viime vuosina heikentyneen monissa läntisissä teollisuusmaissa. Suomessa tilanne on monia muita maita parempi, mutta myös täällä on viritetty keskustelua mahdollisesta opettajapulasta. Sen pelätään pahenevan, varsinkin kun opettajan työssä vielä tällä hetkellä olevat suuret ikäluokat ovat jäämässä eläkkeelle. Tässä raportissa esitetään laskelmat, joilla ennakoidaan vuoden 2025 opettajatarvetta maassamme ja arvioidaan tämän opettajatarpeen tyydyttämisen vaatimaa opettajankoulutuksen volyymiä. Laskelmat perustuvat tuoreimpiin väestö-, opettaja- ja koulutustilastoihin sekä arvioihin opettajien eläköitymisestä, opettajan työssä pysymisestä, …
Estudio de los procesos de pensamiento del profesor en formación
1985
Analizar los procesos cognitivos que genera en el profesor en formación, una intervención formadora puntual. Se compone de 21 estudiantes de tercer curso pertenecientes a la Escuela de Formación de Profesores de EGB de Valencia, y de 76 estudiantes de quinto curso de Ciencias de la Educación de la Universitat de Valencia. Con este diseño cuasi-experimental se pretende analizar las siguientes dimensiones del pensamiento docente: retención de información, pensamiento ideológico, atribución causal, teorías implícitas y dilemas. Para ello, se utiliza un grupo de control que parte de sus propios conocimientos previos y de un grupo experimental al que se aplica un tratamiento. Tratamiento: cuader…
Los retos de la alfabetización de las personas adultas. Creencias de docentes peruanos y propuestas metodológicas
2019
[EN] We address the challenges of adult literacy in an American context from a European perspective. We focus on the context of adult education in Peru, a country with a great cultural and linguistic diversity, based on the interaction produced with a hundred Peruvian teachers linked to the CEBA (Basic Alternative Education) centers. The school context of young people and adults in situations of illiteracy ascribed to the Program for Literacy and Basic Education of Young People and Adults (PAEBA) presents situations of extreme poverty and inequality, which require specific actions and methodologies. From the experience of adult literacy centers and the sociolinguistic reality of teaching in…
¿Qué resultados de aprendizaje alcanzan los futuros maestros de Infantil cuando planifican unidades didácticas de ciencias?
2017
En este trabajo se analizan los resultados de aprendizaje respecto a las ciencias, que alcanzan los futuros maestros y maestras de educación infantil cuando preparan unidades didácticas. Para ello, se ha construido un instrumento de análisis a partir de los resultados de aprendizaje que cabría esperar teniendo en cuenta las competencias que, para nuestra área de conocimiento, aparecen en la memoria de título de Grado de Maestro/a en Educación Infantil de la Universidad de Valencia. Tres investigadores independientes, haciendo uso de dicho instrumento, han analizado 19 unidades didácticas elaboradas por 76 alumnos del 4º curso durante dos cursos académicos consecutivos, cuando cursan la mate…
