Multiple constituency evaluation in sport policy
2004
AbstractThe purpose of this study is to show, how the evaluation process worked, when evaluation method was the multiple constituency evaluation procedure. The research material was Finnish state government’s platform during the years 1995-2003 and also government’s sport policy impacts to Sport Policy in European Union. The goal and objective of modern evaluation research in Sport Policy is to chart, or even call into question, societal functions and programmes. Policy-analytical evaluation research has in Sport Policy been characterised as being too goal oriented, which causes problems when adapting set goals into concrete assessment criteria, especially in the evaluation of public activi…
A Conceptual Framework for Using and Evaluating Web-Based Learning Resources in School Education
2010
Published version of an article from the journal:Journal of Information Technology Education. Also available from the publisher: http://www.jite.org/documents/Vol9/JITEv9p053-079Hadjerrouit743.pdf Web-based learning resources (WBLRs) have provided teachers with a wide range of new teachingexperiences that are not possible in traditional classroom. However, little research has beendone as to which approach to WBLRs is suitable to address issues that are pertinent to learning.This paper proposes a conceptual framework to explore the design and evaluation of WBLRs inschool education. The paper also examines the way in which the framework is used to evaluatestudents? and teachers? perceptions o…
Cost-efficiency assessments of marine monitoring methods lack rigor—a systematic mapping of literature and an end-user view on optimal cost-efficienc…
2021
Global deterioration of marine ecosystems, together with increasing pressure to use them, has created a demand for new, more efficient and cost-efficient monitoring tools that enable assessing changes in the status of marine ecosystems. However, demonstrating the cost-efficiency of a monitoring method is not straightforward as there are no generally applicable guidelines. Our study provides a systematic literature mapping of methods and criteria that have been proposed or used since the year 2000 to evaluate the cost-efficiency of marine monitoring methods. We aimed to investigate these methods but discovered that examples of actual cost-efficiency assessments in literature were rare, contr…
El Proyect3ES como metodología transdisciplinar de aprendizaje por proyectos en el Grado de Educació Social. Plan de evaluación y valoración del alum…
2020
[ES] Se presenta una estrategia didáctica para educación superior, basada en la interdisciplinariedad y el diseño de un proyecto de intervención interáreas. Está dirigida al alumnado del Grado de Educación Social, de la Universitat de València, y busca que el alumnado construya el de manera autónoma, en equipos de trabajo, abordando desde varias asignaturas simultáneamente el diseño de un proyecto de intervención, centrado en una necesidad real del contexto. A partir de la presentación, se centra el trabajo en el proceso de evaluación y en los instrumentos que se han utilizado. Se presenta un plan de evaluación que recoge información de alumnado, profesorado y organizaciones externas para r…
Role of biological control agents and physical treatments in maintaining the quality of fresh and minimally-processed fruit and vegetables
2019
International audience; Fruit and vegetables are an important part of human diets and provide multiple health benefits. However, due to the short shelf-life of fresh and minimally-processed fruit and vegetables, significant losses occur throughout the food distribution chain. Shelf-life extension requires preserving both the quality and safety of food products. The quality of fruit and vegetables, either fresh or fresh-cut, depends on many factors and can be determined by analytical or sensory evaluation methods. Among the various technologies used to maintain the quality and increase shelf-life of fresh and minimally-processed fruit and vegetables, biological control is a promising approac…
Validation of the use of Actigraph GT3X accelerometers to estimate energy expenditure in full time manual wheelchair users with spinal cord injury.
2013
Study design: Cross-sectional validation study. Objectives: The goals of this study were to validate the use of accelerometers by means of multiple linear models (MLMs) to estimate the O2 consumption (VO2) in paraplegic persons and to determine the best placement for accelerometers on the human body. Setting: Non-hospitalized paraplegics’ community. Methods: Twenty participants (age=40.03 years, weight=75.8 kg and height=1.76 m) completed sedentary, propulsion and housework activities for 10 min each. A portable gas analyzer was used to record VO2. Additionally, four accelerometers (placed on the non-dominant chest, non-dominant waist and both wrists) were used to collect second-by-second a…
The first milestone in psychoeducational intervention in Spain: the Medical and Educational Psychology Laboratory of the National Patronage for the H…
2017
espanolLa intervencion psicopedagogica terapeutica supone el inicio de una importante vertiente del trabajo psicotecnico en Espana, destacando especialmente la atencion al ambito infantil, que propiciara la creacion de instituciones como el Patronato Nacional de Anormales, que supondra un referente para el trabajo conjunto de profesionales del ambito medico, pedagogico y psicologico. Este trabajo analiza los primeros anos del Patronato, centrandose en sus objetivos e ideario de funcionamiento y, especialmente en la creacion en 1914 del Laboratorio Medico y de Psicologia Pedagogica y en el trabajo que alli realizaron autores proximos a la psiquiatria infantil como Rodriguez Lafora y Achucarr…
Services for Young Children and Families: Evaluating Intervention Cycles
1996
To advance the national early intervention agenda, priority must be assigned to the evaluation of services for families of infants and young children with developmental disabilities. This priority for evaluation rests on current considerations for accountability to families, accountability to fundin
Prediction of Specific TCR-Peptide Binding From Large Dictionaries of TCR-Peptide Pairs
2019
Abstract The T cell repertoire is composed of T cell receptors (TCR) selected by their cognate MHC-peptides and naive TCR that do not bind known peptides. While the task of distinguishing a peptide-binding TCR from a naive TCR unlikely to bind any peptide can be performed using sequence motifs, distinguishing between TCRs binding different peptides requires more advanced methods. Such a prediction is the key for using TCR repertoires as disease-specific biomarkers. We here used large scale TCR-peptide dictionaries with state-of-the-art natural language processing (NLP) methods to produce ERGO (pEptide tcR matchinG predictiOn), a highly specific classifier to predict which TCR binds to which…
Measurements on partial discharge in on‐site operating power transformer: a case study
2018
This study presents the case study of a substation in-service power transformer referred to the on-site partial discharge (PD) detection and evaluation methods. An original methodology for simultaneous application of three methods is proposed: electrical, acoustic and ultra-high frequency. Transformer is powered by the power grid and no external generator is required according to the proposed methodology. Furthermore, several possibilities of applying these concurrent measurements and benefits of such solution in terms of result interpretation, interference resistance and on-site measurement applicability are indicated. The proposed methodology allows for a fast, accurate and secure PD diag…
