VEBO: Validation of E-R diagrams through ontologies and WordNet
2012
In the semantic web vision, ontologies are building blocks for providing applications with a high level description of the operating environment in support of interoperability and semantic capabilities. The importance of ontologies in this respect is clearly stated in many works. Another crucial issue to increase the semantic aspect of web is to enrich the level of expressivity of database related data. Nowadays, databases are the primary source of information for dynamical web sites. The linguistic data used to build the database structure could be relevant for extracting meaningful information. In most cases, this type of information is not used for information retrieval. The work present…

Consistency of Targeted Metatranscriptomics and Morphological Characterization of Phytoplankton Communities
2020
The composition of phytoplankton community is the basis for environmental monitoring and assessment of the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems. Community composition studies of phytoplankton have been based on time-consuming and expertise-demanding light microscopy analyses. Molecular methods have the potential to replace microscopy, but the high copy number variation of ribosomal genes and the lack of universal primers for simultaneous amplification of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genes complicate data interpretation. In this study, we used our previously developed directional primer-independent high-throughput sequencing (HTS) approach to analyze 16S and 18S rRNA community structures. C…
Island Development Model Specialisation: A Panel Data Analysis Comparing Evolutionary Tourism Model, Industrial to Community-Based (2010–2019)
2022
Islands are frequently characterised by an economic structure centred on tourism and the service sector. This specialisation has taken different forms and characterisations concerning the chosen or spontaneously developed model. To understand the development choices and patterns, this article analyses sixteen islands and archipelagos in the European Union over ten years from 2010 to 2019. A panel data analysis was based on critical variables identifying the tourism industry model from those that could represent a proxy of the community-based tourism model. The principal component analysis was adopted to compare the evolutionary trends of these two different ways of choosing the island’s tou…
Metodologies competencials en la formació literària de mestres: experiències didàctiques per fomentar el pensament reflexiu: Competence-based methodo…
2023
L’objectiu d’aquest article és descriure i analitzar alguns projectes d’educació literària realitzats durant els últims vuit anys en el marc de la formació de docents per tal de reflexionar sobre la importància de l’ús de metodologies actives i competencials per l’ensenyament de la literatura al context universitari. Aquests projectes conformen experiències didàctiques com ara tallers d’escriptura, rutes literàries i l’ús dels videojocs per al foment lector. Presentem un comentari qualitatiu dels resultats d’aprenentatge més significatius i de la valoració dels estudiants a partir de la tria de diverses mostres. Finalment, arribem a la conclusió que aquestes experiències promouen no només l…
The incorporation of the ecosocial perspective as cross-curricular content in EFL. An exploratory action research experience
2019
Esta investigación pretende modestamente contribuir a hacer frente a uno de los retos más importantes a los que se enfrenta la humidad: la crisis global ecosocial. Con una visión crítica de la educación, el trabajo analiza desde la teoría y la práctica educativa la viabilidad de la incorporación de una perspectiva ecosocial como contenido transversal de la asignatura de Inglés como Lengua Extranjera en la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria en España. El trabajo describe el proceso y los resultados obtenidos en una experiencia de investigación en la acción en el ámbito educativo desarrollada en un instituto público de Valencia en marzo de 2019, para la que se diseñaron y llevaron a cabo clases…
Fallacies about p-Value Shared by Professors and University Students
2017
Resumen La “Práctica Basada en la Evidencia” requiere a los profesionales valorar de forma crítica los resultados de las investigaciones psicológicas. Sin embargo, las interpretaciones incorrectas de los valores p de probabilidad son abundantes y repetitivas. Estas interpretaciones incorrectas pueden afectar las decisiones profesionales y poner en riesgo la calidad de las intervenciones y la acumulación de un conocimiento científico válido. Por lo tanto, identificar el tipo de falacia que subyace a las decisiones estadísticas es fundamental para abordar y planificar estrategias de educación estadística dirigidas a intervenir sobre las interpretaciones incorrectas. En consecuencia, el objeti…
Evolución de la investigación sobre actividad física en el medio natural en educación física: Resultados en Web of ScienceTM desde 1990 a 2016
2017
Monográfico con el título: "Actividades Físicas en el Medio Natural (1ª parte)" Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave también en inglés Se pretende analizar la evolución del número de publicaciones sobre actividad física en el medio natural en educación física. Para ello, se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en la base de datos Web of ScienceTM desde 1990 hasta 2016. Los términos de búsqueda usados se basaron en dos conceptos: 1) actividad física en el medio natural y 2) educación física. Se encontraron un total de 116 resultados, con una media de 4,3 publicaciones por año, observándose una tendencia a aumentar el número de publicaciones a lo largo de los …
Protocol: A literature review about the use of crowdsourcing in educational environments
2016
<p>The objective with the protocol described in this paper is to review the existing literature in relation to the implementation of crowdsourcing in educational environments. It seeks to give answer to 4 questions. First, it seeks to answer the question of which kind of crowdsourcing initiatives are more appropriate to be used for educational activities. In second place it’s important to find out whether there is any particular discipline in which crowdsourcing, by its nature, can be applied more naturally. Third, it seeks to identify which factors influence both positively and negatively in the teaching/learning experience using crowdsourcing. Finally, the last question to answer, t…
Mexican journals of educational research towards mainstream dissemination of science
2014
The purpose of this study is to analyze the Electronic Journal of Educational Research (REDIE) on its path towards the common manner of scientific dissemination. This research presents the evolution of Mexican policy with regards to the journals, the situation of the Educational Research Mexican journals, and its profundity relating to REDIE. In its evolution, there were three moments that stood out the most: the standardization of quality criteria, the digitalization and open access of the scientific journals, those that came together with REDIE like REDALYC and LATINDEX , and the individual initiatives of those journals that motivated the development of the scientific dissemination in Mex…
