Memoria escolar y conocimientos didáctico-disciplinares en la representación de la educación geográfica e histórica del profesorado en formación
2020
El presente trabajo pretende examinar el modo en que los futuros docentes de Educación Primaria y Secundaria representan las materias de Geografía e Historia para valorar la incidencia que dichas representaciones pueden tener en su futura práctica profesional. Para ello, se ha diseñado un cuestionario mediante el cual se pretende analizar el peso de la memoria escolar y de su formación pedagógico-disciplinar en su forma de conceptualizar dichas materias y, sobre todo, en la adopción de determinadas perspectivas y finalidades socio-educativas. El estudio ha contado con la participación de 124 estudiantes de la Universitat de València (España) (84 procedentes del Grado en Maestra/o en Educaci…
This can be made more student-centred : Asynchronous mediation in in-service teacher professional development
2022
Vygotskian Sociocultural Theory is a powerful foundation for research into teacher professional development. However, while this research has been growing, it has largely been focused on pre-service second/foreign language. Furthermore, there is a lack of research on how the instructional process informed by the principles of Sociocultural Theory, including assessment of candidates’ mediated performance, can be orchestrated to promote teachers’ conceptual development and induce changes in their classroom practices. The present study explores how asynchronous assessment of in-service teachers’ portfolios (with the focus on lesson planning) informed by dynamic assessment framework shaped the …
Circulating cell-free DNA: an up-coming molecular marker in exercise physiology.
2012
The phenomenon of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) concentrations is of importance for many biomedical disciplines including the field of exercise physiology. Increases of cfDNA due to exercise are described to be a potential hallmark for the overtraining syndrome and might be related to, or trigger adaptations of, immune function induced by strenuous exercise. At the same time, exercise provides a practicable model for studying the phenomenon of cfDNA that is described to be of pathophysiological relevance for different topics in clinical medicine like autoimmune diseases and cancer. In this review, we are summarizing the current knowledge of exercise-based acute and chronic alterations i…
El coneixement i l'ús de les aplicacions educatives dels estudiants universitaris d'Espanya i la República Txeca
2020
Technological evolution has led to many changes at both professional and academic levels. The inclusion of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has caused dizzying changes in the different contexts of life (educational, professional, social). More and more applications are being downloaded by users to their mobile devices, both for entertainment and training. For this reason, this study is based on the need to assess the knowledge and attitude of university students towards downloading existing educational applications. In this way, the use and frequency of these tools in the teaching-learning process of the students will be analyzed. In order to carry out this study, the quanti…
Neurosurgical resident training in Czech Republic
2018
Introduction: Resident training is essential to be able and offer high-quality medical care. Neurosurgical training in its traditional form is currently challenged by law-enforced working hour restrictions and general re-structuring within Europe. We aimed to evaluate the current situation of resident training in the Czech Republic. Methods: An electronic survey was sent to European neurosurgical trainees between 06/2014 and 03/2015. The responses of Czech trainees were compared to those of trainees from other European countries. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the effect size of the relationship between a trainee being from Czech Republic and the outcomes (e.g. satisfaction…
Entrepreneurship Training and Self-Employment among University Graduates
2012
In economies characterized by low labor demand and high rates of youth unemployment, entrepreneurship training has the potential to enable youth to gain skills and create their own jobs. This paper presents experimental evidence on a new entrepreneurship track that provides business training and personalized coaching to university students in Tunisia. Undergraduates in the final year of licence appliquee were given the opportunity to graduate with a business plan instead of following the standard curriculum. This paper relies on randomized assignment of the entrepreneurship track to identify impacts on labor market outcomes one year after graduation. The analysis finds that the entrepreneur…
Teachers as frontline agents of integration: Finnish physical education students’ reflections on intercultural encounters
2018
Background and purpose: This article focuses on how future Physical Education and Dance teachers may be better prepared to work in increasingly diverse education environments. It also discusses how tertiary institutions might address issues of social inclusion and cultural pluralism within their programmes, courses and assignments. The authors critically reflect on an experiential learning intervention in Jyväskylä, Finland, in which trainee PE teachers facilitated kinaesthetic language-learning workshops for asylum seekers. The applied use of physical education and dance in this context was aimed at providing a distinct opportunity to consider a PE teacher’s professional competence and rol…
Openness and staff training as antecedents of administration and management innovation: a cross-country study
2020
A firm's ability to innovate has gained continuously increasing attention among scholars and practitioners. This study aims to discuss the relationship of a firm's openness as an element of organisational culture and staff training as an element of organisational learning to its activity in introducing administration and management innovation in two countries. Data collection was conducted in Latvia and Russia. To make the research more specific, organisational innovation is broken down into two categories: innovation in management practices; and innovation in workplace organisation. The result obtained demonstrated the positive impact of staff training on innovation activities and openness…
The master’s dissertation viva by video conference: strategies and best practices
2019
Durante la última década, se han publicado numerosos estudios sobre el proceso de elaboración y evaluación de los trabajos de fin de máster (TFM) (Da Cunha, 2016; García & Martínez-Clares, 2012; González-Calero & Turégano, 2011), sobre las fases de tutorización y acompañamiento al estudiante (Flores, Martínez, Martínez López, Pascual, & Sanz, 2013) y sobre las competencias a adquirir tras su finalización (Cabrera, Sangrà & Rodera, 2012; Serrano & Pontes, 2015; Viejo & Ortega Ruiz, 2018). Sin embargo, no resultan tan evidentes las investigaciones que analizan la fase de preparación y defensa pública de estos trabajos, siendo, sin embargo, la que genera más incomodidad entre el estudiantado. …
Protocol of a multicenter international randomized controlled manikin study on different protocols of cardiopulmonary resuscitation for laypeople (MA…
2018
IntroductionOut-of-hospital cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of death in industrialised countries. Survival depends on prompt identification of cardiac arrest and on the quality and timing of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation. For laypeople, there has been a growing interest on hands-only CPR, meaning continuous chest compression without interruption to perform ventilations. It has been demonstrated that intentional interruptions in hands-only CPR can increase its quality. The aim of this randomised trial is to compare three CPR protocols performed with different intentional interruptions with hands-only CPR.Methods and analysisThis is a prospective randomise…
