A Sociocultural Approach to Young Language Learners' Belief about Language Learning
2003
Can research into the diagnostic testing of reading in a second or foreign language contribute to SLA research?
2011
Language testing researchers have recently shown interest in diagnostic testing. However, diagnostic testing requires a better understanding of language abilities at a less general level than has been normal in language testing, and this has posed challenges to testers to define their diagnostic constructs both theoretically and operationally. In theory, second language acquisition (SLA) should be able to offer insights into the construct of reading in a second or foreign language (S/FL), and testing ought to be able to base diagnostic tests of S/FL reading on theoretical insights from SLA. It is, however, unclear whether this happens in practice. In this paper we examine the potential syne…
Writing as a Learning Tool
2001
How learning is understood in everyday schooling and conceptualized in research varies a great deal, as does the way in which writing is used for enhancing learning. This paper reviews recent research conducted mainly in Europe, North Arrierica, and Australia to outline what kind of challenges research is facing at the moment. The paper begins with examining how the concept of learning is defined in everyday use and in research. It considers the analysis of learning conceptions important because the way that learning is understood greatly determines how writing is used as a tool for learning. Second, it analyzes the theoretical basis for using writing as a learning tool--theories are divide…

Hybrid organic-inorganic mononuclear lanthanoid single ion magnets
2019
The first family of hybrid mononuclear organic-inorganic lanthanoid complexes is reported, based on [PW11O39]7− and 1,10-phenanthroline ligands. This hybrid approach causes a dramatic improvement of the relaxation time (×1000) with a decrease of the optimal field while maintaining the Ueff of the inorganic analogues.
The "Laparoscopic Neuro-Navigation" -- LANN: from a functional cartography of the pelvic autonomous neurosystem to a new field of laparoscopic surgery
2006
It is the objective of this study to etablish the technique of laparoscopic exposure of all pelvic somatic and autonomous nerves. In all our patients who underwent a laparoscopic surgical approach of the retroperitoneum, exposure and assessment of the exposed nerves using laparoscopic neuro-navigation were performed. Laparoscopic surgery allows the surgical approach to all pelvic nerves, particularly to the sciatic nerve, the pudendal nerve and the splanchnic pelvic nerves. We describe a cartography of the functional anatomy of the pelvic plexus and elaborate on the concept of "laparoscopic pelvic functional surgery". © 2004 Taylor & Francis.
La transformación de la esfera familiar en el Derecho de extranjería español
2013
espanolLa articulacion legal del derecho a la vida familiar en Derecho de extranjeria se rige por una logica restrictiva cuyo alcance implica una autentica "metamorfosis" de las relaciones familiares. De un lado, la ley combina una composicion nuclear y dependiente para promover un ideal tipo dominante de familia que resulta abiertamente excluyente de otras realidades familiares existentes en la realidad social. Y de otro lado, neutraliza la diversidad del entorno familiar modulando otras formas de reconocimiento con vistas a instaurar un modelo de familia preferiblemente no conflictivo. Desde una perspectiva critica, este trabajo se centra el verdadero alcance del regimen de la reagrupacio…
Coffee biowaste valorization within circular economy: an evaluation method of spent coffee grounds potentials for mortar production
2021
Abstract Purpose Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are biowastes extensively generated within the coffee supply chain. Nowadays, their disposal represents an increasing environmental concern due to its toxicity and organic nature. With the estimated increase of coffee production and consumption in the upcoming years, there is an imperative need to find a proper reverse option, along with a novel industrial application, which allows for the valorization of this coffee by-product within a circular economy perspective. This study aims at investigating a potential reuse of spent coffee grounds to produce novel construction materials to be used for sustainable buildings. Methods After having illustrate…
PEDAGOGICAL CONFLICT – THE CONTEMPORARY TECHNOLOGY OF THE COMPETENCY-BASED APPROACH
2019
In the 21st century, the creative role of education in the socio-economic development is increasing. Therefore, education is focused not only on the acquisition of certain amount of knowledge by learners, but also on the development of creative abilities and personal qualities, including the ability and desire to study, the ability and desire to act and the ability and desire to create. These key competencies develop in the process of learning on the basis of the technologies of the competency-based approach. The research problem is the development of positive learning motivation for students as the means of transforming inter-personal conflict into pedagogical conflict, which promotes indi…
A nested virtualization tool for information technology practical education
2016
Background A common problem of some information technology courses is the difficulty of providing practical exercises. Although different approaches have been followed to solve this problem, it is still an open issue, specially in security and computer network courses. Results This paper proposes NETinVM, a tool based on nested virtualization that includes a fully functional lab, comprising several computers and networks, in a single virtual machine. It also analyzes and evaluates how it has been used in different teaching environments. Conclusions The results show that this tool makes it possible to perform demos, labs and practical exercises, greatly appreciated by the students, that woul…
