Delphi study for the design and validation of a questionnaire about digital competences in higher education
2016
The study of digital competence remains an issue of interest for both the scientific community and the supranational political agenda. This study uses the Delphi method to validate the design of a questionnaire to determine the perceived importance of digital competence in higher education. The questionnaire was constructed from different framework documents in digital competence standards (NETS, ACLR, UNESCO). The triangulation of non-parametric techniques made it possible to consolidate the results obtained through the Delphi panel, the suitability of which was highlighted through the expert competence index (K). The resulting questionnaire emerges as a good tool for undertaking future na…
Estratègies de formació i informació per implantar l'OpenCourseWare a la Universitat de València. Participació dels usuaris potencials en el procés
2013
Objectius: conèixer les necessitats de formació que diuen tenir els docents de les titulacions en ciències de la salut de la Universitat de València per ser competents en la incorporació de l'OpenCourseWare.

Uso de materiales didácticos digitales en las aulas de Primaria
2019
El presente artículo se analizan las prácticas docentes en aulas de Educación Primaria en las que se emplean plataformas digitales comerciales o institucionales, así como otros materiales didácticos digitales. Se pretende dar respuesta, principalmente, a las siguientes preguntas: ¿Qué materiales didácticos digitales se utilizan en las aulas de Primaria? ¿Qué tipología de actividades se llevan a cabo con estos recursos? ¿Cómo se organiza el aula y qué metodologías didácticas se emplean? Para el desarrollo de este estudio, se toman como instrumentos de recogida de datos las entrevistas a docentes y las observaciones, de aula y de espacios, efectuadas en tres aulas de Canarias, Valencia y Gali…
A SOLUTION TO THE DILEMMA BETWEEN R&D EXPANSION AND THE PRODUCTIVITY DECLINE: LESSONS FROM THE R&D MODELS IN AMAZON AND FINLAND
2019
As a consequence of the two-faced nature of information and communication technology (ICT), a majority of ICT leaders have been confronting the critical problem of a dilemma between R&D expansion and productivity decline in the digital economy. However, Amazon has been able to accomplish a skyrocketing increase in R&D and market capitalization. Finland has also accomplished balanced advancement not only of welfare but also economic resurgence. This paper attempted to elucidate the miracle of two ICT leaders. By means of a comparative empirical analysis of respective development trajectories, the sources of their success were analyzed thereby the comparative advantage and disadvantag…
Chemosensory assessment of rival competitive ability and scent-mark function in a lizard, Podarcis hispanica
2007
Recent studies have stressed the role of scent marks as signals potentially mediating competitor assessment. According to this view, receivers may use scent marks to derive information about the costs of exploiting a given area, but few studies have directly addressed this hypothesis. One of its main predictions is that scent marks should reflect a signaller's competitive ability. We simulated the situation faced by an intruding male when entering the scent-marked territories of rival males of varying competitive ability to test predictions about the role of scent marks in a lizard, Podarcis hispanica. We report that males were attracted to areas marked by males of similar or higher competi…
Balls into non-uniform bins
2014
Balls-into-bins games for uniform bins are widely used to model randomized load balancing strategies. Recently, balls-into-bins games have been analysed under the assumption that the selection probabilities for bins are not uniformly distributed. These new models are motivated by properties of many peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, which are not able to perfectly balance the load over the bins. While previous evaluations try to find strategies for uniform bins under non-uniform bin selection probabilities, this paper investigates heterogeneous bins, where the "capacities" of the bins might differ significantly. We show that heterogeneous environments can even help to distribute the load more eve…
Disseny i desenvolupament d'exams a partir d'eines de web semàntica
2011
La Web Semàntica no és una proposta de futur. És una realitat. Davant del creixement caòtic de recursos i l'absència d'una organització clara del web actual, la web semàntica advoca per classificar, dotar d'estructura i anotar els recursos amb semàntica explícita processable per màquines. En aquest article presentem els resultats d'una investigació realitzada a la Universitat de Múrcia pel grup TECNOMOD i el GITE, que de manera multidisciplinar hem abordat l'aplicació d'un programa semàntic denominat OeLE en una assignatura virtual de la Titulació de Pedagogia. Es va dissenyar un entorn d'avaluació en xarxa compost pel programa OeLE i un sistema de consulta del feedback que OeLE proporciona…
On the Quest for Defining Organisational Plasticity: A Community Modelling Experiment
2020
PurposeThis viewpoint article is concerned with an attempt to advance organisational plasticity (OP) modelling concepts by using a novel community modelling framework (PhiloLab) from the social simulation community to drive the process of idea generation. In addition, the authors want to feed back their experience with PhiloLab as they believe that this way of idea generation could also be of interest to the wider evidence-based human resource management (EBHRM) community.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used some workshop sessions to brainstorm new conceptual ideas in a structured and efficient way with a multidisciplinary group of 14 (mainly academic) participants using PhiloLab. Th…
Cognitive Processing dissociation by mental effort manipulation in long demanding tasks
2020
AbstractIndividuals uses cognitive resources to modulate performance in demanding tasks and a non-invasive and reliable way of measuring mental effort is pupillometry. This study aimed to test the mental effort related to different processing systems in long tasks with controlled and automatic demands. We conducted two experiments with healthy subjects: in Experiment 1 (n=15), using a metronome to ensure control on task pace, participants performed a serial number generation task (Counting; little to no effort tasks), a random number generation (RNG; effortful tasks), and no task (Unfilled interval; no effort at all). In experiment 2, (n=15) participants performed counting tasks with or wit…
