Desafíos y oportunidades de Sentinel-2 en la monitorización de las aguas continentales
2023
En los ecosistemas de agua dulce, la escasez y la contaminación de este recurso está promoviendo que los organismos gubernamentales incluyan en sus agendas estrategias para mitigar esta situación a través de una gestión sostenible. La Directiva Marco del Agua establece entre sus requerimientos la monitorización del estado ecológico de las aguas continentales para determinar su calidad. Las imágenes satelitales ofrecen una visión sinóptica y continua a partir de la que es posible derivar métricas del estado ecológico. Esas métricas son un complemento a los tradicionales muestreos ya que se incrementa la cobertura espacial y la periodicidad en la monitorización. Sentinel-2, con su sensor Mult…
Los videojuegos como herramientas de aprendizaje. Una experiencia de innovación con la ópera de Mozart
2016
La siguiente propuesta está enmarcada en el proyecto de Innovación Educativa IEDUCARTS (interdisciplinariedad en la educación artística) de la Universitat de València. Consiste en trabajar la ópera a través del editor de videojuegos E-adventure en el aula de primaria. Por medio de los videojuegos el docente adquiere nuevas metodologías de enseñanza potenciando el aprendizaje activo, autónomo y colaborativo del alumnado desde un enfoque constructivista. Además conlleva la riqueza de sintonizar con los intereses lúdicos de los alumnos mediante estrategias que incluyen representaciones visuales y auditivas. La experiencia se ha llevado a cabo con 75 alumnos de 3º de Primaria durante el primer …
Aprendizaje organizativo, innovación y propensión exportadora
2012
En la actualidad, cualquier empresa debe afrontar el cambio tecnológico, la competencia internacional y unos mercados cada vez más exigentes. La innovación de productos y la exportación siempre han sido considerados factores clave de la competitividad de la empresa, pero el actual entorno competitivo les está otorgando un protagonismo fundamental. Este trabajo tiene por objeto esclarecer las conexiones entre la innovación de productos y la exportación y, además, destacar el papel desempeñado por la capacidad de aprendizaje organizativo a la hora de fomentar la creatividad necesaria para desarrollar nuevos productos que resulten atractivos en los mercados locales e internacionales. At presen…
La complejidad del conocimiento: retos para su eficaz creación y transferencia en la organización innovadora
2012
Una eficaz creación y transferencia de conocimiento es esencial para promover el aprendizaje organizativo y la innovación. Con este postulado como idea principal, este artículo explora sendos casos de proyectos de gestión del conocimiento en dos empresas españolas, profundizando en tres características problemáticas del conocimiento: dispersión, ambigüedad y perturbación. Los resultados recomiendan diseñar cuidadosamente el proyecto de gestión de conocimiento teniendo en cuenta: (i) el propósito de la estrategia de gestión de conocimiento, (ii) el equipo coordinador del proyecto y la distribución de responsabilidades, y (iii) los requerimientos y restricciones organizativos, incluyendo proc…
Critical evaluation of the necessary changes of the interaction of employers, employees, local authorities, state and other stakeholders of the educa…
2020
Expansion of business creates globalization, which should be balanced by the localization and development of adequate changes in education. Aim of the paper is to find the ways to solve the social problems linked with the globalization. The review of the existing problems reveals many shortcomings of the classical “free market” theory. The increased speed of exchange of information demands special care to improve the accessibility and quality of education, using life-long learning and distance education. The appropriate attitudes, skills and knowledge should be proposed to support innovations, localization of economics and organization of interaction between employers, employees and other i…
Everyday creativity : boosting creative resources with Finnish models of education : teachers' handbook
2019
This Handbook is the result of several conversations and activities that took place during a blended in-service teacher education course “Everyday Creativity – Boosting the internal creative resources of European schools with Finnish models of education for creativity”. This course offered opportunities for teachers from Romania, Hungary, Italy and the Netherlands to map creative practices in their own school communities, come to Finland to reflect on their work in dialogue with Finnish teachers and education experts, and finally implement follow-up projects to further develop their creative pedagogical ideas . Instead of writing textbook-like material, we decided to emphasize teacher parti…
The pivotal role of students’ absorptive capacity in management learning
2022
Within a research context dominated by an increasing interest in innovative learning method- ologies in management education, an individual’s capacity to establish links between existing and new knowledge, that is, absorptive capacity (AC), has been surprisingly neglected in management (higher) education inquiry. This study helps to close this gap by investigating the role of management students’ AC on their academic performance. The study also examines the moderating effect on this relationship of using traditional learning methodologies (such as lectures), innovative learning methodologies (such as interacting with digital platforms), and having a cooperative climate in the classroom. Sec…
Actual and Potential Pedagogical Use of Tablets in Schools
2013
This study reviews the potential of tablet technology for teaching and learning. In autumn 2012, we conducted a focused survey comprising quantitative and qualitative questions with Finnish teachers (N = 171, from 54 schools). We focused on perceived pedagogical opportunities and the actualized pedagogical potential of tablets at schools. The survey results indicate that the actual usefulness of tablets in schools was significantly less than what teachers perceived as the pedagogical potential. However, the results demonstrate the positive impact these devices are having on teaching and learning, as well as prompting changes in pedagogical perspectives. Teachers stated that tablets can dive…
Role of the nNOS gene in ethanol-induced conditioned place preference in mice
2009
Nitric oxide (NO) produced by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) has a role in synaptic plasticity, and evidence suggests its role in a range of effects produced by alcohol in the central nervous system. The aim of the current study was to investigate the role of the nNOS gene in the development of ethanol-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in mice. The CPP paradigm is designed to investigate the reinforcing properties of drugs of abuse and the development of maladaptive behaviors, such as conditioned response to drug-associated stimuli, following repeated drug exposure. Adult male and female wild type (WT) and nNOS knockout (KO) mice on a mixed B6; 129S genetic background were t…
Enriching primary student teachers’ conceptions about science teaching : Towards dialogic inquiry-based teaching
2011
Inquiry-based teaching has been at the heart of science education since it was first outlined in national standards over a decade ago. The general idea behind the inquiry guidelines is that pupils would adopt ways of conducting science, in addition to conceptually learning, thus attaining also the epistemological dimension of science. Although curricula are based on these ideas of inquiry, all too often authentic inquiry is hindered by overly authoritative approaches and teacher directions. To avoid this, the communicational ways in which teachers can encourage pupil reasoning during different phases of inquiry should be explicitly addressed. This paper addresses this gap by introducing a d…
