Revisión bibliográfica y análisis sobre b-learning y la socialización del alumnado en educación primaria
2021
espanolLa modalidad educativa de b-learning se incorporo al sistema educativo hace algunos anos y se ha implantado con fuerza, sobre todo a nivel universitario. El objetivo del estudio es analizar las investigaciones publicadas sobre b-learning en la etapa de Educacion Primaria a traves de una revision bibliografica centrada en los ultimos 5 anos. Aunque el estudio confirma que la tendencia no ha cambiado y el modelo sigue teniendo mas presencia en niveles superiores, poco a poco, se van viendo estudios sobre b-learning en Educacion Primaria. En su mayoria, son estudios enfocados a la eficacia en cuanto al rendimiento academico, pero podemos encontrar investigaciones donde el foco de estudi…
Assessment of microalgae species, biomass, and distribution from spectral images using a convolution neural network
2022
AbstractEffective monitoring of microalgae growth is crucial for environmental observation, while the applications of this monitoring could also be expanded to commercial and research-focused microalgae cultivation. Currently, the distinctive optical properties of different microalgae groups are targeted for monitoring. Since different microalgae can grow together, their spectral signals are mixed with ambient properties, making estimations of species biomasses a challenging task. In this study, we cultured five different microalgae and monitored their growth with a mobile spectral imager in three separate experiments. We trained and validated a one-dimensional convolution neural network by…
Framework for pedagogical learning analytics
2018
Learning analytics is an emergent technological practice and a multidisciplinary scientific discipline, which goal is to facilitate effective learning and knowledge of learning. In this design science research, I combine knowledge discovery process, a concept of pedagogical knowledge, ethics of learning analytics and microservice architecture. The result is a framework for pedagogical learning analytics. The framework is applied and evaluated in the context of agency analytics. The framework contributes to the practical use of learning analytics.
De la fundación de un país al muro fronterizo: una perspectiva social e histórica de la migración en Estados Unidos de Norteamérica
2019
El discurso del actual presidente norteamericano, Donald Trump, que ha reivindicado la construccion de un muro en la frontera de ese pais con Mexico; ha manejado cifras que superaban la estimacion existente de extranjeros no autorizados residiendo en el pais y cuya disputa con el partido democrata llevo al shutdown del gobierno mas extenso de la historia del pais, conducen a pensar que el tema de la inmigracion ilegal en los Estados Unidos es creciente. Sin embargo, esa cifra no solamente no aumento sino que descendio (Warren, 2016), en el marco de un contexto que puede dar cuenta de discriminacion y barreras para la integracion plena de los migrantes. El texto considera brevemente el panor…
Learning, teaching and integration of adult migrants in Finland
2017
Learning a new vocation or re-learning one that was previously mastered is considered one of the essential pathways for migrant integration into the Finnish labour market. Thus, vocational educators should have competencies that support teaching adults with diverse educational, vocational, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds, and enhance their participation in the learning community. This research examines learning, teaching, and integration of adult migrants in Finland. The study analyses what educators and adult migrant students focus on when talking about learning and teaching. First, the aim was to gain an understanding of the core aspects that trainers and migrant students refer to wh…
How amniotic fluid shapes early odor-guided responses to colostrum and milk (and more)
2016
Revue; Among the multiple transitions that characterize mammalian development, birth certainly is the most abrupt and spectacular. It is also the most challenging for newborns when one considers their high mortality rates in any mammalian species. Although evolution has selected newborn organisms that possess the physiological and behavioral keys leading to adapt to this harsh psychobiological challenge, their capabilities cannot be considered separately from the maternal organism and the environment she creates. Mammalian females provide indeed passive (physiological) and/or active (behavioral) assistance to complement and boost their offspring’s capacities. One notable strategy of mammali…
Is There Hope for First Graders at the Lowest Percentiles? : The Roles of Self-Efficacy, Task Avoidance, and Support in the Development of Reading Fl…
2022
Self-efficacious children are expected to be more task-focused in challenging achievement situations and consequently have better chances of overcoming learning difficulties than children who have lower self-efficacy. The present study investigates this presumption with Finnish-speaking first graders struggling with reading acquisition ( N = 285). The development of the children’s reading fluency, self-efficacy, and task avoidance was followed from the middle of Grade 1 to the end of Grade 2, and a 6-week mobile game-based intervention was administered to those who exhibited the greatest risk for reading disabilities (≤ 5th percentile). Exploratory structural equation modeling was used to …
A Bayesian Mixed-Methods Analysis of Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction through Outdoor Learning and Its Influence on Motivational Behavior in Sc…
2017
Research has shown that outdoor educational interventions can lead to students' increased self-regulated motivational behavior. In this study, we searched into the satisfaction of basic psychological needs (BPN), i.e., autonomy support, the learners' experience of competence, and relatedness, both within the peer group and with their teachers, through outdoor learning. From 2014 to 2016, n = 281 students attended “research weeks” at a Student Science Lab in the Alpine National Park Berchtesgaden (Germany). The program is a curriculum-based one-week residential course, centered on a 2-day research expedition. Both before and after the course, students completed a composite questionnaire addr…
MANAGING A MIXED SKILL CLASS
2010
In a digital environment students need to manage different types of skills - cognitive, emotive and manual. When working in a mixed-skill class the differences between student abilities can disrupt the rhythm and style of the learning process and demand flexibility in the teaching approach that is adopted.
Classification of Targets Using Statistical Features from Range FFT of mmWave FMCW Radars
2021
Radars with mmWave frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology accurately estimate the range and velocity of targets in their field of view (FoV). The targeted angle of arrival (AoA) estimation can be improved by increasing receiving antennas or by using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). However, obtaining target features such as target type remains challenging. In this paper, we present a novel target classification method based on machine learning and features extracted from a range fast Fourier transform (FFT) profile by using mmWave FMCW radars operating in the frequency range of 77–81 GHz. The measurements are carried out in a variety of realistic situations, including p…
