La filosofía política del transnacionalismo en la migración: Una respuesta al debate entre el liberalismo y el comunitarismo
2019
Uno de los problemas a los cuales se ha enfrentado la filosofía contemporánea, es lograr materializar sus postulados; de allí, que el presente artículo muestra un análisis crítico del liberalismo y el comunitarismo a partir del análisis de sus conceptos y principios rectores como modelos políticos filosóficos. Al finalizar, el trabajo formula una respuesta material al fenómeno propuesto, a través de la construcción de un modelo integrador que toma en consideración, los diferentes contrastes de la realidad actual que tienen las sociedades.
Power of the state key principles
2018
Many years of research on the essence of the power of the state as one of the main determinants for shaping international relations allowed to formulate various concepts of modelling this phenomenon. The following article presents methodology of building the model of the power of the state. Existing and known from the literature models for determining power of the state have been discussed. Their advantages and disadvantages have been pointed out. Existing research, especially in the field of modelling the power of the state, indicates the popularity of developing models that are a conglomerate of various sectors of the state's functioning. On the other hand, there is a definite lack of pow…
A Hybrid Model for an E-learning System Which Develops Metacognitive Skills at Students
2013
One of the goals of academic education is to train students in view of acquiring metacognitive skills, thus becoming self-regulated learners prepared for for lifelong learning. The research in this area has proved that metacognition can be taught and learned and that self-regulation behavior can be guided and constrained by the features of the learning environment. In order to become an educational environment, attractive and at the same time efficient for the students and which would enable students to develop their metacognitive skills, the e-learning system needs continuous improvments. This paper presents a hybrid model of an e-learning system, MEM - Metacognitive E-learning system Mode…
Exploring a new incubation model for FinTechs: Regulatory sandboxes
2021
Research on incubation models indicates that incubators and accelerators are crucial catalysts for the development of start-ups. To facilitate start-ups in financial markets, several regulatory authorities have adopted a new incubation model called a ‘regulatory sandbox’. Regulatory sandboxes enable eligible applicants to test their technology-enabled financial solutions for a certain period of time (subject to conditions the regulator imposes). As such, these instruments allow innovation while preventing severe instability in financial markets caused by systemic risk. Despite their importance, management research has devoted little attention to studying how sandboxes operate as a new incub…
Antioxidant Bibenzyl Derivatives from Notholaena nivea Desv.
2011
Four new bibenzyl derivatives were isolated, together with other known bibenzyls, by bioassay-guided fractionation of a CHCl3-MeOH extract of Notholaena nivea Desv. (Pteridaceae) aerial parts. The structures were elucidated by NMR, ESIMS and other spectral analyses. Their antioxidative effects towards superoxide, lipidic peroxidation and the 2,2'- azino-bis-3- ethilbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical were assayed. Results showed that the compound 3,12-dihydroxy-5-methoxybibenzyl (6) is the most active compound in the ABTS free-radical scavenging test, while in the coupled oxidation of ȕ-carotene and linoleic acid assay the compound 5,12-dihydroxy-3-methoxydibenzyl-6- carboxylic a…
Selective versions of chain condition-type properties
2015
We study selective and game-theoretic versions of properties like the ccc, weak Lindel\"ofness and separability, giving various characterizations of them and exploring connections between these properties and some classical cardinal invariants of the continuum.
Instruction-based clinical eye-tracking study on the visual interpretation of divergence : how do students look at vector field plots?
2018
Relating mathematical concepts to graphical representations is a challenging task for students. In this paper, we introduce two visual strategies to qualitatively interpret the divergence of graphical vector field representations. One strategy is based on the graphical interpretation of partial derivatives, while the other is based on the flux concept. We test the effectiveness of both strategies in an instruction-based eye-tracking study with N = 41 physics majors. We found that students’ performance improved when both strategies were introduced (74% correct) instead of only one strategy (64% correct), and students performed best when they were free to choose between the two strategies (88…
Towards Ecoism on the Road of Societal Resilience
2013
How citizens are able to understand eco-responsible conducts and a necessary community-based action in an individual world? With the "Transition Towns MOVIDA" project, we wish to identify levers related to a most collective and sustainable consumption. How our civilization can survive to a collective sclerosis accompanied with doomsayer's messages, increasing complexity and unstable governance? The present proposal consider major terms definition and practices, which can support the bounce to socio-ecological transition. When adaptive principles and practices runs for self-sufficiency and contributes to opportunity, availability or competition in a fragmented warming world, which behavioral…
Design of a safety training package for migrant workers in the construction industry
2021
Abstract The construction sector is known as a high-risk sector with many safety challenges. It is also characterised by a large number of migrant workers and these workers report higher accident rates than native workers. This paper presents the design of the CSTP (Construction Safety Training Programme). The CSTP is a theory-based training program aimed at improving safety behaviours in construction sites acknowledging the particular challenges migrant workers face. Based on second and third generational models of training, we developed a training program that addresses the challenges faced by migrant workers in the construction industry, namely language and cultural barriers, times press…
Influence on self-efficacy of the degree of authenticity of the inquiry carried out in two secondary school science projects
2021
Las creencias sobre la propia capacidad para llevar a cabo con exito una tarea concreta (autoeficacia) influyen en la implicacion y la motivacion hacia dicha tarea. En las ultimas decadas se ha incrementado el foco de atencion hacia estas creencias en el area de ciencias no solo como uno de los predictores mas consistentes del desempeno real del alumnado, sino por la existencia de desigualdades sistematicas en la autoeficacia de chicos y chicas. Aunque el Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos (ABP) en el aula de ciencias posee diversas caracteristicas que potencialmente pueden contribuir a la mejoria de la autoeficacia en ciencias del alumnado, las evidencias entre la relacion de los elementos de…
