Procedures for study of teaching practices. Literature Review
2012
Interest in studying teaching practices has increased, because of the need to evaluate teachers and dissatisfaction with the usual ways of doing it. Recent approaches with Value-Added Models, based on students’ results on achievement tests do not seem satisfactory. The article is based on a review of literature and classifies the approaches to practices in three groups: instruments based on information given by teachers; observation protocols; and approaches based on the analysis of products of the practices. Specific tools are described and advantages and disadvantages of the three approaches are discussed. El interés por las prácticas docentes ha aumentado, en parte por la necesidad de ev…
The importance of phytoplankton production for carbon budgets in a semiarid floodplain wetland
2011
Phytoplankton production (PP) in wetlands is not measured as often as that of macrophytes. A three year-study during a period of sustained high flooding was undertaken in a central Spanish floodplain wetland (Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park) to determine net PP, its spatial heterogeneity and controlling factors, and compare it with primary production in macrophyte communities. This enabled us to estimate carbon budgets for each community. All PP variables showed high spatial and temporal variability among sites, resulting in low coherence even when flooding connected all sites. Net PP corresponded to 25- 36% of submerged plant production and 3-10% of helophyte production. Net PP was con…
Ética y prevención del consumo de drogas
2010
En este artículo se discuten algunas controversias éticas en torno a la prevención del consumo de drogas. Las posiciones favorables al consumo de drogas plantean objeciones éticas a la prevención, especialmente a la prevención mediante la implantación de normas legales que restringen el acceso y el uso de las sustancias. Se apela al control personal o al autocontrol como sustitución de los mecanismos coercitivos o limitadores de las leyes actuales. Sin embargo, no existe ninguna posibilidad de desligar las conductas de autocontrol de las condiciones que las controlan, que, en su mayor parte, son sociales y que, en el último término, vienen ejercidas por las instancias de control tradicional…

Formulaicity in constrained communication : an intermodal approach
2021
DeutschIn dieser an Korpuslinguistik, Formelsprache und Studien uber eingeschrankte Kommunikation grenzende Forschungsstudie, die sich hier auf Ubersetzung, Dolmetschen und L2 konzentriert, wollen wir uberprufen, ob die in der polnisch-englischen Komponente eines intermodalen EPTIC-Korpus gefundenen eingeschrankten Texte sich von den einheimischen Texten unterscheiden in Bezug auf die Verwendung benachbarter Wortkombinationen, oft Bigrams genannt, und ob ahnliche Muster in gesprochenen und geschriebenen Registern gefunden werden konnen. Dazu erarbeiteten wir das Poisson-Regressionsmodell mit festen und zufalligen Effekten. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die ubersetzte Sprache zur hoheren Anzah…
Translation ‘going social’? Challenges to the (Ivory) Tower of Babel
2010
The discussion of “turns” or “paradigmatic shifts” which we can witness in the last few years in Translation Studies undoubtedly testifies to the discipline’s increasing establishment and recognition within the scientific community and of the increasing practice of a transdisciplinary research. These shifts also include what has been called the “sociological turn”, which comprises the cluster of questions dealing not only with the networks of agents and agencies and the interplay of their power relations, but also the social discursive practices which mould the translation process and which decisively affect the strategies of a text to be translated. This paper seeks to foreground some of t…
