Effects of tDCS on Bimanual Motor Skills: A Brief Review.
2018
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that allows the modulation of cortical excitability as well as neuroplastic reorganization using a weak constant current applied through the skull on the cerebral cortex. TDCS has been found to improve motor performance in general and motor learning in particular. However, these effects have been reported almost exclusively for unimanual motor tasks such as serial reaction time tasks, adaptation tasks, or visuo-motor tracking. Despite the importance of bimanual actions in most activities of daily living, only few studies have investigated the effects of tDCS on bimanual motor skills. The objectives …

Neural Classification of Compost Maturity by Means of the Self-Organising Feature Map Artificial Neural Network and Learning Vector Quantization Algo…
2019
Self-Organising Feature Map (SOFM) neural models and the Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) algorithm were used to produce a classifier identifying the quality classes of compost, according to the degree of its maturation within a period of time recorded in digital images. Digital images of compost at different stages of maturation were taken in a laboratory. They were used to generate an SOFM neural topological map with centres of concentration of the classified cases. The radial neurons on the map were adequately labelled to represent five suggested quality classes describing the degree of maturation of the composted organic matter. This enabled the creation of a neural separator classify…
Translanguaging as Playful Subversion of a Monolingual Norm in the Classroom
2018
A large part of the literature on translanguaging as a pedagogical theory has explored how an inclusive multilingual pedagogy can support students from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds to actively participate in the classroom. While much of this literature approaches classroom translanguaging as an instructional strategy designed to promote multilingual interactional practices, we analyse how multilingual practices can also take place as subversive language play in an educational context that is driven by a monolingual norm. Our data are video-recorded lessons from secondary-level Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) classrooms in Finland in which students whose L1 is …
Valenza e insegnamento della lingua straniera
2015
This work deals with valency, a key syntactic notion whose chemistry-inspired label was established by Lucien Tesnière (1959), one of the most well-known contributors to the Prague Linguistic Circle. We will concentrate on two questions: (a) to what extent does valency play a role in Second Language Learning (SLL)?; and (b) what role should the use of valency play in language teaching practices? This paper will provide answers to these questions and propose reasons for motivating the use of valency in SLL.
Hva påvirker bruken av e-læring som læringsverktøy blant anestesisykepleiere
2014
Masteroppgave i spesialsykepleie – Universitetet i Agder 2014 Background: To ensure competence it is important to use good sources of knowledge and learning tools that provide good learning outcome. E-learning is considered to be the future focus to ensure a common updated competence. Purpose: Purpose of this study was to illuminate what influences the use of e-learning as a learning tool among nurse anesthetists. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study using a questionnaire based on the technology acceptance model (TAM). Based on previous theory and research, we added organizational factors to TAM. We performed a cross-sectional study among 369 nurse anesthetists in helse sør-øst. 11…

Maldivas y el delicado equilibrio entre India y China
2019
Maldivas es la nación más pequeña de Asia Meridional en términos de población, superficie y PBI. A pesar de ello, este pequeño archipiélago tiene una gran importancia estratégica, en virtud de su ubicación en medio de las rutas marítimas internacionales del océano Índico, y en su cercanía a las costas de la India. La propuesta de este artículo es exponer los cambios que se produjeron en Maldivas durante la presidencia de Abdulla Yameen en cuanto a la política interna, como así también a las relaciones exteriores, y observar en qué momento estas dos tendencias se cruzan para formar parte de una misma trama. A su vez, analizar finalmente las consecuencias que esto tiene para el país y para la…
