Escuela Digital: estrategias y materiales didácticos digitales en Educación Infantil y Primaria
2021
Título en español y portugués Resumen basado en la publicación El impacto de la tecnología en todos los ámbitos de la vida cotidiana es innegable. La sociedad está expuesta a una gran revolución tecnológica, con cambios acelerados y nuevas exigencias formativas y laborales. El contexto educativo no es ajeno a dichos cambios y desde la educación se están haciendo esfuerzos, más o menos notables, dirigidos a responder a las diversas demandas sociales de la revolución tecnológica.

Drivers of job-related learning among low-educated employees in the Nordic countries
2018
This study explored drivers of participation in job-related lifelong learning (LLL) among low-educated mature-aged employees and compared them across four Nordic countries. Workplaces can be low-threshold, effective arenas for development of their skills in work and learning. The paper builds on the Bounded Agency Model and theories of learning motivation, human capital, and workplace learning. We used data from the Survey of Adult Skills (Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies) by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. The average participation rate was 36%. Results of the logistic regression analyses showed that income, skills use at work, sector…
Unilateral Maximal Isometric Hex Bar Pull Test : Within-Session Reliability and Lower Body Force Production in Male and Female Freeski Athletes
2021
The aim of the study was to (1) assess the within-session reliability of a unilateral isometric hex bar pull (UIHBP) maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) test and, (2) determine unilateral isometric absolute peak force (PFabs) and relative peak force (PF) values in freeski athletes. Twenty-one male and eight female academy to national team freeskiers performed the novel UIHBP MVC task on a force plate and PFabs and relative PF were assessed (1000 Hz). Within-session measures of PFabs offered high reliability on left and right limbs for males (ICC = 0.91–0.94, CV = 2.6–2.2%) and females (ICC = 0.94–0.94, CV = 1.4–1.6%), while relative PF measures showed good to high reliability in both left a…
Application of the threshold of toxicological concern (TTC) to the safety evaluation of cosmetic ingredients.
2007
The threshold of toxicological concern (TTC) has been used for the safety assessment of packaging migrants and flavouring agents that occur in food. The approach compares the estimated oral intake with a TTC value derived from chronic oral toxicity data for structurally-related compounds. Application of the TTC approach to cosmetic ingredients and impurities requires consideration of whether route-dependent differences in first-pass metabolism could affect the applicability of TTC values derived from oral data to the topical route. The physicochemical characteristics of the chemical and the pattern of cosmetic use would affect the long-term average internal dose that is compared with the re…
Migrations, trauma and mental health: A literature update on psychological assessment
2020
Introduction Migrants and refugees often face potentially traumatic events and post-migratory stressors. Upon arrival in the host country, they can be referred to mental health services to assess the impact of their previous experiences. These cross-cultural clinical encounters may raise questions, particularly regarding the assessment of mental health using models based on Western conceptions of psychopathology. Objectives and method The objective of the present non-systematic review of the literature is to discuss the psychological evaluation of post-traumatic reactions in migrants and refugees. More specifically, we present current research on psychopathology, resilience and post-traumat…
Examining the Double-Deficit Hypothesis in an Orthographically Consistent Language
2012
We examined the double-deficit hypothesis in Finnish. One hundred five Finnish children with high familial risk for dyslexia and 90 children with low family risk were followed from the age of 3½ years until Grade 3. Children's phonological awareness, rapid naming speed, text reading, and spelling were assessed. A deficit in rapid automatized naming (RAN) predicted slow reading speed across time and spelling difficulties after Grade 1. A deficit in phonological awareness predicted difficulties in spelling, but only in the familial risk sample. The effect of familial risk was significant in the development of phonological awareness, RAN, reading, and spelling. Our findings suggest that the ba…
Emotional Seesaw, Compliance, and Mindlessness
2001
Research on emotion conducted so far has ignored situations where the subject experiences a certain emotion, but where the external stimulus that evoked and upholds this emotion suddenly disappears. This kind of situation, however, is relatively common in everyday life. This article attempts to recognize certain consequences of those conditions under which the stimuli justifying our experience of such emotional states as fear or joy suddenly disappear. Research done to date by the author and colleagues indicates increased compliance of the subject when addressed with various requests, commands, or suggestions in the situation termed here “emotional seesaw.” The classical “live” example tha…
Nettielämän ensiaskeleet : vanhempien näkemyksiä medialukutaidon ja mediavanhemmuuden merkityksestä neuvolaikäisen lapsen hyvinvointiin
2011
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää 4-6 -vuotiaiden lasten vanhempien näkemyksiä medialukutaidon ja mediavanhemmuuden merkityksestä lasten hyvinvointiin. Tarkoitus oli selvittää, miten perheissä opetellaan medialukutaitoa ja millaisena näyttäytyy terveyttä edistävä mediavanhemmuus sekä millaista tukea vanhemmat odottavat neuvolasta. Tutkimuksen lähestymistapa oli laadullinen. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin ryhmähaastatteluina toteutetun väljän teemahaastattelun (n=9) avulla. Kolmen ryhmän ryhmähaastattelut tehtiin elokuussa 2010. Aineistoa analysoitiin sisällönanalyysillä. Tulosten perusteella lasten tutustuminen nettielämään alkaa jo 4-vuotiaana. Vanhemmat olivat kiinnostuneita lapsen medi…
Sodium Chloride and Magnesium Chloride affected by Ripening of Camembert Cheese
1993
Ripening of cheese with three kinds of salt treatment was studied using MgCl 2 , NaCl or a mixture of the two. Proteolysis was followed by determination of TCA-soluble nitrogen and quantitative electrophoresis. A rapid one-step method for free fatty acids was used to determine short and long-chin fatty acids. In the presence of magnesium, proteolysis increased, even with NaCl, which seemed to delay the magnesium activation. Lipolysis was retarded by NaCl, which decreased the level of free fatty acids. An imbalance between proteolysis and lipolysis could be responsible for the unpleasant flavor of the cheese containing both MgCl 2 and NaCl
Optical tomography from focus
2007
A model and a method providing a 3D reconstruction of a given translucent object from a series of image acquisitions performed with various focus tunings is proposed. The object is imaged by transmission; refraction, reflection and diffusion effects are neglected. It is modeled as a stack of translucent parallel slices and the acquisition process can be described by a set of linear equations. We propose an efficient inversion technique with O(n) complexity, allowing practical applications with a simple laptop computer in a very reasonable time. Examples of results obtained with a simulated 3D translucent object are presented and discussed.
