The use of employee participation in the USA and Spanish companies
2008
Abstract This article presents a description of employee participation in Spain. The number of published papers in English about Spain regarding this subject is very low, and even lower by Spanish authors. In short, we can say that there is hardly any knowledge regarding employee participation in Spain in both the European and American settings. This paper summarized the results of a research project we carried out whose objective was to compare employee participation using samples from large American and Spanish companies following the works of Edward E. Lawler and his team. Our aim is to have professionals and researchers throughout the world better understand the actual situation in our …
Uso del debate como herramienta metodológica docente en estudios del Grado en Medicina: DEBATMITAL
2019
[EN] The main purpose of the DEBATMITAL project is to increase the participation of students in the practical session on "Myths of Food" that is part of the optional subject “Nutrition and Dietetics" of the degree in Medicine of the University of Valencia. In front of the master class, which was basically the tool used in previous courses, students are organized into discussion groups to debate some food-related statements commonly heard. The assessment that students make of this initiative is very positive. They indicate that they have learned, they have had fun while participating in the debates, and that they prefer this tool to the master class. Therefore, the debate is a teaching tool …
Estrategia de enseñanza y aprendizaje de programación basada en la idea de ’hackathon’
2021
[EN] The acquisition of programming and data analysis skills in higher education is increa-singly necessary in all areas of Science and Engineering. In this paper we present a methodology for the motivation of programming learning, mainly focused on the deve-lopment of machine learning algorithms. This methodology is based on the hackathon idea and will have different levels. On the one hand the basic level where a competition is proposed in an improvised way during the development of the class. A second level where a programmed hackathon is proposed but within the classroom environment and using learning management systems such as Moodle. The last level consists of parti-cipation in an exte…
FisioCovid
2021
[EN] In the study plans of the first years of the degrees in Health Sciences it is usual to include basic and general subjects that are not very motivating for students with a more specific academic profile. Specifically, in the Degree in Optics and Optometry at the University of Valencia we encountered this problem when teaching General Physiology, a subject included within the Human and Ocular Physiology subject in the first year. Based on this background, we have considered developing the “FisioCovid” project as a pedagogical tool due to its condition of general interest to the population. The objective of this teaching innovation project is is to take advantage of the media and scientif…
Teorie globali per azioni locali: i processi autonomi di riappropriazione dello spazio
2014
Le pratiche autonome di (ri)appropriazione e riconversione temporanea a fini “pubblici” di aree in disuso hanno fatto emergere nelle principali città europee (e non solo) e in maniera significativa in alcune tra le più importanti città italiane, esperienze di partecipazione interessanti dal punto di vista della sperimentazione di pratiche capaci di proporre politiche pubbliche dal basso e di costruire strategie alternative di “produzione dello spazio” (Lefebvre, 1991). Per poter costruire queste “utopie concrete” è come se i poveri, gli sfruttati, “coloro che non ci stanno”, ricorrendo a forme di disobbedienza radicale, definissero uno “stato d’eccezione proclamato dal basso” (Virno, 2012),…
Antecedents and consequences of virtual customer co-creation behaviours
2019
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare the antecedents and consequences of two distinct types of virtual co-creation behaviours that require different degree of effort from the customer, i.e. customer participation (CPB), and customer citizenship (CCB) behaviour, in a cross-cultural study. Design/methodology/approach A survey was conducted among members of online panels in the UK and Spain, reaching a sample of 800 online individuals who participate in online co-creation processes with fashion retailers. This design allows us to test the cross-cultural effects. Multi-group structural equations modelling was used to analyse the data. Findings Virtual co-creation behaviours are driv…
'What can I do? Any tips?' Online communities and agoraphobia, an open channel for shared participation in management of medical treatment
2021
espanolEn este articulo se analizan las entradas producidas en tres grupos de la red social Facebook creados y utilizados por personas diagnosticadas de agorafobia mediante un analisis del discurso. Se identifica que las comunidades virtuales constituyen espacios que favorecen la emergencia de un posicionamiento activo de sus participantes en la co-gestion de su medicacion a partir de tres ejes: a) espacio extra-medico de iguales que favorece el intercambio de informacion, la formacion y la consulta; b) espacio que posibilita el nacimiento y puesta en comun de narrativas alternativas a la farmacologica, y; c) espacio de conflicto entre narrativas sobre la medicacion que, en algunos casos, f…

DELL’UTRI E CONTRADA “GEMELLI DIVERSI”: È LA REVISIONE EUROPEA LO STRUMENTO DI OTTEMPERANZA ALLE SENTENZE CEDU
2017
La Cassazione nega l’origine giurisprudenziale del concorso esterno in associazione mafiosa e individua il rimedio della revisione europea per l’attuazione della decisione CEDU nei confronti di soggetti in posizioni simili a quella di Contrada. Il percorso offre l’occasione per riflettere sulla connotazione “oggettiva” della prevedibilità e sull’uguaglianza di trattamento dei condannati. Italian supreme Court denies that the origin of external participation in mafia-type criminal association lies in case law and envisages the European review as the tool to comply with ECtHR judgements in similar cases to that of Contrada. This jurisprudence provides a proper opportunity for an in-depth exam…
Labor market participation, employability and and basic skills: the French case
2013
En ligne sur http://cemapre.iseg.utl.pt/educonf/2e3/files/submissions_to_web/Branche-Seigeot%20Aline.doc; The development of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and the important technological but also organizational innovations during the last decades have transformed the labor market and the jobs nature. One major consequence of this on employment has been the gradual rise in qualifications' structure sought and demanded by employers. However, the expansion of higher education contributed to depreciate diplomas proportionately more widespread in the labor market due to a greater skills' heterogeneity of their owners. Since high basic skills levels protect against unemployment…
