A first experience with Problem-based learning in a course of Psychometrics
2019
The aim of this study was to to describe students’ perceptions on problem-based learning (PBL) when applied in a course of Psychometrics. 34 students participated in the course. Activities were conducted in groups of three students during two sessions of two hours each, and included the traditional steps in the PBL tutorial process. Participants were surveyed on their perceptions on PBL, acquisition of competences in PBL vs Traditional learning, and will to use PBL methodology in the future. Results pointed that students’ perceived PBL could help them to improve group work and problem resolution. Students preferred PBL methodology to acquire responsibility for learning, work with groups and…

Performance assessment of PPP surveys with open source software using the GNSS GPS-GLONASS-Galileo constellations
2020
In this work, the performance of the multi-GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Precise Point Positioning (PPP) technique, in static mode, is analyzed. Specifically, GPS (Global Positioning System), GLONASS, and Galileo systems are considered, and quantifying the Galileo contribution is one of the main objectives. The open source software RTKLib is adopted to process the data, with precise satellite orbits and clocks from CNES (Centre National d&rsquo
Reflections on the Other Side. A Southern Iberia Origin for the First Pottery Production of Northern Morocco?
2021
Archaeological works in Morocco (the Spanish-Moroccan team) were funded by a European Research Council Advanced Grant AGRIWESTMED (Origins and spread of agriculture in the western Mediterranean region) coordinated by L.P.-CH. Processing works were performed thanks to a IJCI-2016-27812 -Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities-Universidad de Granada, Juan de la Cierva-Incorporacion Agreement (2016, by RMMS), and by funding provided in the framework of project "Archaeobiology of the Neolithic of the Southern Iberian Peninsula" (NeArqBioSI) A-HUM-460-UGR18 by Consejeria de Economia, Conocimiento, Empresas y Universidad.

Contribution of vibrational modalities for navigation in virtual environments
2016
The virtual environment navigation may induces the simulator sickness depending on conditions and user’s profile. The potential virtual reality multimodality may provide solutions to these problems while improving the sense of presence. In this context, the objective of this research is to determine what is the impact of vibrational modalities for navigation in virtual environments on the simulation.A taxonomy of navigation methods is proposed. It results in 4 types, specific egocentric, specific exocentric, abstract egocentric and abstract exocentric. First we simulate rumble strip vibrations during a driving simulation. The experimentation exposed that these vibrations make driver more aw…
Navigated percutaneous screw fixation of the pelvis with O-arm 2: two years' experience.
2020
Aim To evaluate the case series of the patients operated with percutaneous fixation by the navigation system based on 3D fluo-roscopic images, to assess the precision of a surgical implant and functional outcome of patients. Methods A retrospective study of pelvic ring fractures in a 2-year period included those treated with the use of the O-Arm 2 in com-bination with the Stealth Station 8. Pelvic fractures were classifi-ed according to the Tile and the Young-Burgess classification. All patients were examined before surgery, with X-rays and CT scans, and three days after surgery with additional CT scan. The positioning of the screws was evaluated according to the Smith score, the outcome wi…
UCS: Ultimate course search
2016
International audience; In this system prototype demonstration we present, Ultimate Course Search (UCS), a learning tool developed to provide students ways to efficiently search electronic educational materials. UCS integrates slides, lecture videos and textbooks into a single platform. The keywords extracted from the textbooks and the slides are the basis of the indexing scheme. For the videos, UCS relies on slide transitions and metadata to establish the correspondence between slides and video segments. The video segmentation is based on the slides being presented using the meta-data provided by the video recording software and image processing techniques.
The 'Second Wave' of Spanish Clinical Legal Education: Empirical, Pedagogical and Institutional Lessons for a Pilot Course and Program at the Univers…
2019
Spanish clinicians today benefit from the ‘first wave’ of early adopters. We also benefit from decades of clinical scholarship — most recently about the Western European and global clinical legal education movements — and empirical data on what lawyers actually do and need in practice. In this article, the authors summarize key empirical, pedagogical, and institutional lessons to ground the creation of a pilot course and program at the University of Granada.
