Visiones sobre la gamificación como estrategia metodológica inclusiva en educación primaria
2022
La aparición en las últimas décadas de metodologías más activas y cooperativas parece estar dando respuesta a algunas de las necesidades del alumnado actual, mucho más diverso y digitalizado. Entre las estrategias metodológicas, este trabajo se ha centrado en la gamificación, en analizar la percepción que tiene el alumnado, el profesorado y las familias sobre cómo esta práctica puede favorecer la creación de entornos educativos más inclusivos y colaborativos. Se presenta un estudio etnográfico llevado a cabo en un centro educativo de la Comunitat Valenciana, seleccionado intencionadamente por sus especiales características instrumentales. Las técnicas de recogida de información comprenden: …
Efectos del uso de dispositivos de realidad virtual sobre el control postural y el cybersickness en jóvenes universitarios
2021
espanolEl objetivo principal de este estudio fue analizar los efectos de jugar con sistemas de realidad virtual sobre el control postural y el cybersickness. La muestra del estudio estaba compuesta por 21 sujetos de 18 a 30 anos de edad. Todos los sujetos jugaron con un dispositivo de realidad virtual durante 30 minutos. Ademas, todos los sujetos realizaron dos pretest (30 minutos e inmediatamente antes de la prueba) y dos postest (inmediatamente y 30 minutos despues de la prueba). El control postural estatico con ojos abiertos y cerrados y el cybersickness fueron evaluados en todas las pruebas. Los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas entre el pretest 2 y el postest 1 en tres de…
Introducción del sistema PECS para la superación de las limitaciones comunicativas en un caso de síndrome de West
2016
En este estudio de caso se aborda la intervención realizada en una alumna de cuatro años, escolarizada en un aula específica de un centro ordinario, y a la que recientemente han diagnosticado síndrome de West. Aplicando, a lo largo de un trimestre en un aula de Audición y Lenguaje, el sistema de comunicación por intercambio de imágenes (PECS) se pretende superar las graves limitaciones comunicativas de la alumna. El procedimiento metodológico utilizado es mixto y las técnicas de investigación empleadas son la aplicación de test estandarizados, la entrevista, los cuestionarios, los registros de observaciones y el análisis documental. A partir del test que establece la evaluación inicial del …
Seeking Information on Social Commerce: An Examination of the Impact of User- and Marketer-generated Content Through an Eye-tracking Study
2021
Following the growing popularity of social commerce sites, there is an increased interest in understanding how consumers decide what products to purchase based on the available information. Consumers nowadays are confronted with the task of assessing marketer-generated (MGC) as well as user-generated information (UGC) in a range of different forms to make informed purchase-related decisions. This study examines the information types and forms that influence consumers in their decision-making process on social commerce. Building on uses and gratifications and dual-process theories, we distinguish between marketer and user generated content, and differentiate formats into informational and no…
Acoustic spectral hole-burning in a two-level system ensemble
2020
AbstractMicroscopic two-level system (TLS) defects at dielectric surfaces and interfaces are among the dominant sources of loss in superconducting quantum circuits, and their properties have been extensively probed using superconducting resonators and qubits. We report on spectroscopy of TLSs coupling to the strain field in a surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator. The narrow free spectral range of the resonator allows for two-tone spectroscopy where a strong pump is applied at one resonance, while a weak signal is used to probe a different mode. We map the spectral hole burnt by the pump tone as a function of frequency and extract parameters of the TLS ensemble. Our results suggest that det…
Identifying the combinations of motivations and emotions for creating satisfied users in SNSs: An fsQCA approach
2020
Social Networking Sites (SNSs) play an important role in our daily lives and the number of their users increases regularly. To understand how users can be satisfied in the complex digital environment of SNSs, this study examines how motivations and emotions combine with each other to explain high satisfaction. Users’ motivations comprise four attributes, entertainment, information, social-psychological, and convenience. Emotions are divided into their two main categories, that is positive and negative emotions. We draw on complexity and configuration theories, present a conceptual model along with propositions and perform a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). Through an empi…
An Ergodic Sum-of-Cisoids Simulator for Multiple Uncorrelated Rayleigh Fading Channels Under Generalized Scattering Conditions
2012
In this paper, we present a new method for the design of ergodic sum-of-sinusoids (SOS) simulators for multiple uncorrelated narrowband Rayleigh fading channels. The method, which is intended for a special class of SOS models known as sum-of-cisoids (SOC) models, enables the generation of an unlimited number of mutually uncorrelated Rayleigh fading waveforms with specified autocorrelation properties. This is in contrast to all known methods proposed for SOS simulators, which are restricted to the simulation of multiple uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels characterized by autocorrelation functions (ACFs) derived under the isotropic scattering assumption. The excellent performance of this n…
A Wideband MIMO Channel Model Derived From the Geometric Elliptical Scattering Model
2006
In this paper, we present a reference model for a wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel based on the geometric elliptical scattering model. The model takes into account the exact relationship between the angle of departure (AOD) and the angle of arrival (AOA). Based on this relationship, the statistical properties of the reference model are studied. Analytical solutions are presented for the three- dimensional (3D) space-time cross-correlation function (CCF), the temporal autocorrelation function (ACF), the 2D space CCF, and finally the frequency correlation function (FCF). The correlation properties are studied and visualized under the assumption of isotropic as well as no…
The Mediation of Politics through Twitter: An Analysis of Messages posted during the Campaign for the German Federal Election 2013
2015
Patterns found in digital trace data are increasingly used as evidence of social phenomena. Still, the role of digital services not as mirrors but instead as mediators of social reality has been neglected. We identify characteristics of this mediation process by analyzing Twitter messages referring to politics during the campaign for the German federal election 2013 and comparing the thus emerging image of political reality with established measurements of political reality. We focus on the relationship between temporal dynamics in politically relevant Twitter messages and crucial campaign events, comparing dominant topics in politically relevant tweets with topics prominent in surveys and …
Distinct Patterns of Functional Connectivity During the Comprehension of Natural, Narrative Speech.
2020
Recent continuous task studies, such as narrative speech comprehension, show that fluctuations in brain functional connectivity (FC) are altered and enhanced compared to the resting state. Here, we characterized the fluctuations in FC during comprehension of speech and time-reversed speech conditions. The correlations of Hilbert envelope of source-level EEG data were used to quantify FC between spatially separate brain regions. A symmetric multivariate leakage correction was applied to address the signal leakage issue before calculating FC. The dynamic FC was estimated based on a sliding time window. Then, principal component analysis (PCA) was performed on individually concatenated and te…
