Quranic app practices among multilingual Muslim youth in Denmark

2019

This article sheds light on a set of religious literacy practices which have so far received very little scientific attention, namely ‘quranic app practices’. Quranic app practices are conceptualized as ways of engaging with the Quran through religious apps on smartphones or tablets. The article is based primarily on an explorative group interview with four young people from a Year 8 class in a multilingual lower secondary school in Denmark. The youth have Somali and Afghan background, consider themselves practicing Muslims and can be described as ‘religious heritage learners of Arabic’ (Temples 2013). The article explores the quranic app practices of the young people as reported in the int…

On an Inequality for Trigonometric Polynomials In Several Variables

1990

Publisher Summary This chapter presents trigonometric polynomials in n variables. Using the methods of approximation theory, an inequality can be extended to almost periodic functions and to still more general classes of functions as in the case for Bohr's inequality. However, no analogous result exists in the case of two variables. For the solution of problems containing small divisors, the estimate has to be completed by theorems concerning the best approximation of holomorphic functions by trigonometric polynomials in polystrips. The chapter also presents equations to provide an estimate for a differential operator.

Contextos educativos : revista de educación

2020

El tema central del artículo es la exposición de los argumentos en favor del derecho a la identidad cultural y la discusión sobre sus límites. Pretende mostrar la problemática que envuelve la reclamación de la identidad diferenciada en la enseñanza y explorar las consecuencias que su aplicación irrestricta puede tener para las políticas educativas integradoras de la libertad y la igualdad. Siguiendo una metodología exploratoria, explicativa y descriptiva, el texto empieza exponiendo la actualidad de la identidad cultural y su alcance; realiza a continuación una relectura de los conceptos que le afectan, particularmente los de educación, cultura e identidad cultural; aborda después el derech…

Some Numerical Invariants of Multilinear Identities

2017

We consider non-necessarily associative algebras over a field of characteristic zero and their polynomial identities. Here we describe most of the results obtained in recent years on two numerical sequences that can be attached to the multilinear identities satisfied by an algebra: the sequence of codimensions and the sequence of colengths.

Motivos de participación en el Programa de Prevención del Cáncer Colorrectal de la Comunidad Valenciana según sexo, edad y clase social

2014

Objective: To know the reasons to participate or not in a colorectal cancer (CCR) screening programme and to analyze the differences by sex, age and social class. Methods: Cross-sectional study by a telephone survey directed to a sample of men and women aged between 50-74 year old, participants (n = 383) and non participants (n = 383) in the CCR screening programme of Valencian Community. Descriptive analysis and logistic regression models estimating the Odds Ratio (p < 0.05). Results: The main reasons to participate are "it is important for health" (97.9 %) and "the test is easy" (97.6 %); and to non participate are "no CCR symptoms" (49.7 %) and "didn't receive invitation letter" (48.3 %)…

Participación informada en el Programa de Prevención del Cáncer Colorrectal de la Comunidad Valenciana desde una perspectiva de género

2018

Abstract Objective: To examine the factors that influence informed participation in a Colorectal Cancer Screening Programme (CRCSP) from a gender perspective. Methods: Cross-sectional telephone survey directed to men and women invited to participate (2009-2010) in the Valencian Community CRCSP (Spain). Sample size: 785 subjects. Outcome variables: participation in CRCSP and being informed. Bivariate and multivariate analysis using logistic regression models (95% confidence interval [95%CI], p <0.05). Results: Being a woman (odds ratio [OR]: 1.52; 95%CI: 1.06-2.19), receiving information from a general practitioner (OR: 1.64; 95%CI: 1.05-2.55) and being informed (OR: 1.54; 95%CI: 1.08-2.21) …
