Empīriskajā metodē izstrādāto aktivitāšu ietekme angļu valodas runātprasmes apguvei 11. klases skolēniem Rīgas tehnikumā

2019

Diplomdarbā tiek pētīts, kā empīriskajā metodē izstrādātās aktivitātes uzlabo skolēnu runas prasmes, samazina stresu un baiļu sajūtu no runāšanas. Mērķis ir izstrādāt uz empīrisko metodi balstītas apmācību aktivitātes un izpētīt, kā tas veicina skolnieku runas prasmju attīstīšanu un vai motivē aktīvi piedalīties apmācības procesā. Teorētiskajā daļā ir pētīta runas prasme, empīriskās apmācības teorija un tās pielietošana apmācībās procesā. Empīriskajā daļā atspoguļoti metodes pielietošanas rezultāti. Sākotnējās pārbaudes rezultātu analīze, salīdzinot ar starppārbaudes un gala pārbaudes rezultātiem, pierādīja, ka skolnieku grupai, kuri bija iesaistīti eksperimentā, uzlabojās runas prasme, sam…

Leverage and Family Firms

2020

This chapter analyses the relationship between ownership structure and leverage, providing an integrated theoretical approach that combines traditional financial theories, agency theory, and recently developed theories relating to non-financial preferences. The results show that, after controlling for endogeneity, being a family firm has a positive effect on the propensity to incur debt. These findings add to the existing body of literature and underline the need for a multi-theoretical approach when explaining the capital structure of family firms. The authors apply panel data methodology to control for individual heterogeneity of family firms. The chapter uses a sample of Spanish firms op…

Métodos centrados en el aprendizaje en Fisioterapia. Capacidades del alumno y contexto de aprendizaje

2017

[EN] In this work we wanted to assess the effects of the use of learning-centered methods on various capabilities/abilities of some students and on their perception of the learning environment developed by their professors. The sample consisted of 231 third-year students from the University of Valencia. They belonged to three groups and they were studying the subject of Physiotherapy Cardio circulatory in the degree of Physiotherapy. In order to verify the objective and the hypotheses set out in the research we used a quasi-experimental sequential cohort design with non-equivalent control group, by using a posttest in the control group and a pretest and a posttest in the experimental group.…

A university lecturer's role and interactions in a flipped classroom

2018

International audience; This poster explores role of the lecturer in a university level mathematics class utilizing the flipped classroom approach to teaching. The role of the lecturer is investigated using the Systematic Classroom Analysis Notation (SCAN) tool and the theoretical framework of instrumental orchestration.

New chemiometric technique applied to traceability of Sicilian honey of Sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.)

The consumers have an increasing interest about food traceability with respect to safety, quality and typicality issues. Food traceability is an important issue in food safety and quality control, with impacts on food security, its quantity and overall availability. Furthermore, the possibility of tracing the origin of foodstuff is assuming an increasingly important role at the legislative level, as a tool that may allow to prove on product authenticity and to control adulteration. So, establish systems to trace food products through specified stages of production, processing and distribution play a key role also to ensure food safety. In the last years, several of analytical techniques hav…

Ursula Hicks and Vera Lutz’s Contributions to Development Finance

2018

International audience; This paper analyses the different approaches of two pioneering economists in the field of development finance, Ursula Kathleen Hicks (1896-1985) and Vera Constance Lutz (1912-1976). While research in economics in the 1950s focuses predominantly on finance in already developed countries (Goldsmith, 1969 and Gurley and Shaw, 1955), Hicks and Lutz extended the analysis to developing countries and/or regions – an original initiative for this period of time. Interested in the study of money and banking, Hicks and Lutz nevertheless had different beliefs on the way to promote economic development. This difference of thought comes from differing philosophical backgrounds.

Distributed n-player approachability via time and space average consensus

2012

Abstract In this paper we consider repeated coalitional games with transferable utilities (TU) over networks. Namely, we consider a set of n players that have to distribute among themselves a vector of rewards (one for each player). In our network version there is no coordinator allocating the rewards, but the agents have to agree on a common time-averaged vector by updating the local estimates of the reward vector. The common time-averaged reward vector has to approach a suitable constraint set, called core of the game, that guarantees that no agents benefit from quitting the grand coalition. We propose a doubly (over time and space) averaging distributed algorithm. At every iteration, eac…

The three wives problem and Shapley value

2015

We examine the Talmudic three wives problem, which is a generalization of the Talmudic contested garment problem solved by Aumann and Maschler (1985) using coalitional procedure. This problem has many practical applications. In an attempt to unify all Talmudic methods, Guiasu (2010, 2011) asserts that it can be explained in terms of “run-to-the-bank”, that is, of Shapley value in a “cumulative game”. It can be challenged because the coalitional procedure yields the same result as the nucleolus, which corresponds to a “dual game”. As Guiasu's solution is paradoxical (it has all the appearances of truth), my contribution consists in explaining the concepts, particularly truncation, that play …
