Using evaluation criteria and rubrics as learning tools in subtitling for the D/deaf and the hard of hearing
2018
This paper focuses on the use of evaluation criteria and rubrics as tools for training in an audiovisual translation mode: subtitling for the D/deaf and the hard of hearing (SDH). Following an introduction to the current conception of and research carried out on quality assurance and assessment both in the translation industry and academia, a brief overview of the assessment processes and instruments used in SDH university training and in the professional sector is provided. This is followed by a case study of SDH assessment practices in Spain. Two questionnaires were filled in by five service providers and 12 university trainers, and the data gathered has enabled a better understanding of …

The BRICS Centres of Dispute Resolution: causes, state of the art, and prospects
2023
The idea of an enhanced cooperation and exchange of knowledge and best practices among its member states in the fields of trade, commerce, and investments -among others- is at the heart of BRICS. In fact, intra-BRICS trade has nearly tripled over the last decade, supported by an increase in intra-regional trade for all member countries. Thanks to their influential and remarkable progress in promoting local currency (for de-dollarisation purposes), regional FDI, and regional trade, the BRICS economies have emerged and have taken a new space in the twenty-first century. This reinforced one of the core objectives pursued by BRICS which is that of enhancing the five developing economies’ role i…
Evaluación de las actividades realizadas mediante la metodología de Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas
2020
[ES] La metodología de Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas (ABP) requiere un enfoque de evaluación en el que se evalúen una serie de competencias específicas y transversales. Esta evaluación debe de tener un carácter formativo que permita a los estudiantes identificar y corregir los errores a tiempo. Por lo tanto, es necesario disponer de herramientas para poder evaluar apropiadamente los resultados de aprendizaje y las competencias establecidas. En la asignatura de Corrosión de segundo de Máster de Ingeniería Química, el ABP se ha evaluado a través de un informe a entregar tras cada sesión de ABP, en donde se recogen las principales conclusiones tras la resolución cooperativa del problema plan…
From Historical Silk Fabrics to Their Interactive Virtual Representation and 3D Printing
2020
The documentation, dissemination, and enhancement of Cultural Heritage is of great relevance. To that end, technological tools and interactive solutions (e.g., 3D models) have become increasingly popular. Historical silk fabrics are nearly flat objects, very fragile and with complex internal geometries, related to different weaving techniques and types of yarns. These characteristics make it difficult to properly document them, at the yarn level, with current technologies. In this paper, we bring a new methodology to virtually represent such heritage and produce 3D printouts, also making it highly interactive through the tool Virtual Loom. Our work involves sustainability from different per…
Contract law in the BRICS countries: a Comparative Approach
2017
Having considered the importance of commercial transactions in the ambit of BRICS, the paper comparatively addresses the contract law systems in the five BRICS countries. The aim of the paper is to investigate the way to establish a methodological approach based on a comparative methodology to pave the way for the future development of common principles on contract law in the BRICS countries. Other experiences aiming to achieve the same objective elsewhere (the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts, EU Common Frame of Reference, Principles of European Contract Law, Principles of Asian Contract Law) will be considered as possible inspiration for such an endeavor.
Arte Textil y tradición en la Provincia de Catamarca, Noroeste Argentino
2019
espanolLas tradiciones textiles en la Provincia de Catamarca, constituyen parte de una identidad cultural conformada a partir de elementos muy pujantes provenientes de distinto origen. Estos se traslucen tanto en estilos y tecnicas de piezas de exquisita estetica y calidad. Evidencian ademas, la historia de las industrias y manufacturas textiles que aportaron al desarrollo de esta actividad, considerada por sus habitantes como parte de su idiosincracia que -lamentablemente- con los anos tiende a desaparecer. EnglishThe textile traditions in the province of Catamarca, are part of a cultural identity formed from very vigorous elements from different origins. These are permeated both styles an…
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON TENSILE STRENGTH OF JACQUARD KNITTED FABRICS
2015
An objective approach to select the best fabric for technical and home textiles consists in mechanical properties evaluation. The goal of this study is to analyze the behavior of knitted fabrics undergoing stretch stress. In this respect, three types of 2 colors Rib structure (backstripes jacquard, twillback jacquard and double-layered 3x3 rib fabric) have been presented and tested for tensile strength and elongation on three directions. First, the elasticity and the behavior of knitted Rib fabrics were described The fabrics were knitted using 100% PAN yarns with Nm 1/15x2 on a E5 CMS 330 Stoll V-bed knitting machine, and have been tested using INSTROM 5587 Tensile Testing Machine in respec…
The Research Project on the Principles of BRICS Commercial Contracts Law. An Introduction
2022
The paper presents the main features of the project “The Principles of BRICS Contract Law” and investigates the possible foundations of a common system of international commercial contract law within the BRICS’ network.
The Principles of BRICS Contract Law
2022
This book examines national reports on contract law in each of the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) in order to provide a comparative analysis. It then establishes common principles, where possible, as well as a set of general “soft law” principles governing international commercial contracts in these countries.
