Documenting Napping: The Agentic Force of Documents and Human Action
2015
The article examines the question of the agentic force of documents in institutional practices and proposes a conceptual model of the agentic relation between documentation and human actors. For this aim, it presents an empirical case study of Finnish early childhood education and care. The study deals with individual education plans (IEPs), which are an example of child documentation that aims at an individualised and participatory pedagogy. The analytical focus is on a single topic of an IEP, the child’s afternoon naps, and how these are negotiated in the three-party encounter between a parent, a practitioner and the IEP document. The theoretical framework draws on the theories of documen…
Managing the flow of private information on children and parents in poverty situations : Creating a panoptic eye in interorganizational networks?
2018
In this article, we discuss how the flow of private information about children and families in poverty situations is managed in interorganizational networks that aim to combat child poverty. Although practices for sharing information and documentation between child and family social work services are highly encouraged and recommended to create supportive features for parents and children, this development often results in undesirable forms of governmentality. Interorganizational networking also creates controlling side effects because the exchange of information in networks of child and family services may wield a holistic power over families. We theorize this issue by using the Foucauldian…
Análisis bibliométrico de la evolución de los estudios en Educación Superior
2019
[ES] El objetivo de este estudio es establecer y presentar la evolución académica que ha habido en el ámbito de estudio de la educación superior. Para ello, esta investigación analiza las revistas más influyentes en este ámbito, así como los autores y las instituciones más productivos. Entre los resultados obtenidos, destaca que, de los 10 artículos más citados en el ámbito de la educación superior, 9 hacen referencia al uso de las redes sociales. Además, tanto Reino Unido como España se encuentran en el top 3 del ranking de países más productivos e influyentes en este ámbito de estudio. Son países que tienen un gran número de publicaciones y, además, un número relativamente elevado de cita…
Évaluation de l'impact pédagogique des bibliothèques centres documentaires (BCD) au niveau du cours préparatoire
1992
International audience; Cet article vise à déterminer, de façon empirique, l'influence des bibliothèques centres documentaires (B.C.D.), sur les acquis cognitifs au niveau du cours préparatoire. L'échantillon étudié est composé de 300 élèves répartis sur 15 classes de Chalon-sur-Saône. Le cadre analytique retenu a englobé les caractéristiques socio-démographiques (C.S.P., fratrie, sexe, âge, ...), et le niveau initial. En outre, afin d'isoler l'influence spécifique de la B.C.D., les acquis finaux des élèves ont été examinés. Les méthodes statistiques employées ont permis de contrôler l'impact de chacun de ces éléments. Les résultats font appara\ⁱtre que la fréquentation régulière d'une B.C.…

2023
El presente trabajo trata de analizar la relación entre el taller de Tomás Cobo, su viuda y su sobrino Luis Obispo, desde 1859 hasta 1905, con la Real Academia de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y Naturales, estudiando la gestión de los encargos que se produjeron, conociendo el tipo de encuadernaciones que se encargaban, el número de volúmenes, el tipo de obras (monografías, revistas, publicaciones internas de la propia Academia…), los precios, los distintos talleres… Tomás Cobo trabajó para la Academia entre 1859 y 1869, su viuda entre 1869 y 1884 y su sobrino Luis Obispo entre 1884 y 1905, fecha última de la que tenemos documentación en la Academia
As-built graphic documentation of the Monumento a la Tolerancia. Validation of low-cost survey techniques
2020
[EN] The Monumento a la Tolerancia is an emblematic sculpture realized by Eduardo Chillida, a perfect example for the documentation of sculptures with uniform textures, non-reflective colours and with poorly elaborated shapes through the implementation of various photogrammetric tools, as well as using different applications for processing phase. The basic data are photos taken quickly and without an accurate previous study, which is why the implementation of any target was not foreseen. In order to prove the results different kind of analysis were conducted. The first type was carried out analysing the results obtained from different software, with the use of the same instrument. The secon…
Computer-assisted orientation and drawing of archaeological pottery.
2018
Archaeologists spend considerable time orienting and drawing ceramic fragments by hand for documentation, to infer their manufacture, the nature of the discovery site and its chronology, and to develop hypotheses about commercial and cultural exchanges, social organisation, resource exploitation, and taphonomic processes. This study presents a survey of existing solutions to the time-consuming problem of orienting and drawing pottery fragments. Orientation is based on the 3D geometry of pottery models, which can now be acquired in minutes with low-cost 3D scanners. Several methods are presented: they are based on normal vectors, or circle fittings, or profile fittings. All these methods see…
Mitigating deficiencies of generation Z through new educational methodologies in a business statistic course
2020
[EN] Nowadays, most of the students in first course at University are from the socalled Generation Z. Since a young age, these students have been used digital technology such as internet, mobile phones, tablets and laptops developing certain skills. But a large majority of these students have some deficiencies such as low knowledge of mathematics, scarce levels of motivation, concentration or logical reasoning and little patience (they want to understand everything quickly). These characteristics must be improved being a hard work to do by teachers. New educational methodologies are being adapted taking into account these digital skills and mitigating the deficiencies observed in some stude…
Realization of Benefits from Best Value Approach by Proper Utilization of Expertise in Infrastructure Projects
2020
In the search for improved contract and project management in construction, the Best Value Approach (BVA) is a concept that has been introduced with a proven track record for better performance. The BV-philosophy stresses the importance of proper utilization of vendor expertise, as well as reducing management, direction and control by assumed non-expert clients. The development of BVA has mainly taken place through lessons learned from a number of projects, and existing research is mostly concerned with practicalities and “how” to apply it. However, research is scarce on what characterizes an expert in a BV-context, and the concept lacks scientific documentation regarding underlying premise…
Structure and performance assessment in traditional face-to-face and blended learning statistics courses
2014
Abstract In recent years the number of higher education institutions offering blended learning courses has increased notably. Blended learning is understood as the combination of traditional face-to-face teaching with online and distance learning. During the 2012- 13 academic year, for the first time, the Information and Documentation degree course at the University of Barcelona included a blended learning format in its course in statistics. The blended learning course combined biweekly face-to-face classes and online work between sessions. This study describes the organization of the blended course in comparison with the traditional face-to- face course and presents preliminary data on stu…
