Digital competence in the curricula of Spanish public universities

2018

[EN] The massive incorporation of the technological resources in the classrooms of the infantile and primary centers has been a reality evident for some years, thanks to state plans like School 2.0 or autonomous ones like EducaMadrid or the Intelligent Educational Centers in the Valencian Community. And although much has been written in recent times about digital competence and the initial training of teachers in public universities, it is necessary to continue investigating and reflecting on their suitability and implementation in a society in continuous technological change. On this subject, in these lines it is tried to analyze the curriculum of the Teaching Degrees of several public uni…

Co-culture of rat brain cells as a tool for studying cell-cell interactions

2012

Brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs) form the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in response to interaction with other brain cells (astrocytes, pericytes and neurons). BCECs are characterized by tight junctions (TJ), maturation and stabilization of which require different proteins, such as occludin. When co-cultured with astrocytes and neurons, BCECs were found to form a monolayer resembling the natural BBB: paracellular flux of dopamine and sucrose (i.e. compounds which are unable to cross the BBB in vivo) significantly decreased (1), while the transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) increased. In these conditions, BCECs produced a larger amount of occludin and tended to localize it at t…

Biological invasions are recognized as a significant evolutionary factor over short time scales. In particular, their effect is well recorded on the genetic structure of populations, the patterns of phenotypic evolution and the richness of parasite fauna associated to invasive populations. This study aims at quantifying the consequences of a biological invasion according to these three levels (genetical, phenotypical and parasitological) taking as example the Mozambique tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus. This African cichlid is characterized by an unusual conservation status since it is both (i) ranked among the world's worst invasive species due to its global dispersion during the 20th centu…

Authorized authentication evaluation framework for constrained environments

2016

Internetin kasvu ei perustu tällä hetkellä vain uusien solmujen määrään, vaan Internet on levittäytymässä aivan uusille alueille. Viimeaikoina erilaiset tavat kerätä tietoa ja ohjata laitteita uusin tavoin ovat yleistyneet esimerkiksi teollisuudessa, kaupunkiympäristöjen melun ja saasteiden seurannassa. Lisäksi käsitteet älykoti tai -kaupunki alkavat olla yleisesti tunnettuja. Nykyinen kasvu näiden teknologioiden käytössä perustuu pitkälti laitteiden koon pienenemiseen ja hintojen laskuun. Jotta Esineiden Internet pystyy kasvamaan merkittävällä tavalla, laitteiden fyysisten kokojen ja hintojen tulisi pysyä matalalla tasolla tai laskea edelleen. Pieni koko ja hinta tarkoittaa kuitenkin usein…

The impact of a short auditory training on L2 pronunciation in languages with different orthographic depth

2021

It is sometimes assumed that the pronunciation of an L2 is more predictable and thus easier to learn if its orthography is transparent. This study aims to find out whether this assumption holds true in the first stages of L2 learning in languages with different orthographic depth. The study also examines the effect that a short auditory training (supported by simultaneous orthographic input) has on L2 pronunciation. A central finding was that the pronunciation of an L2 with a transparent orthography was not easier to learn for a naïve learner when compared to an L2 with an opaque orthography. A second finding was that even a short period of auditory training can introduce a significant impr…
