Propuesta de mejoramiento vial de la calle principal “Subida al Belén” de longitud 2.9 km, sector El Belén, ubicado en la parroquia rural Tambillo, cantón Mejía, provincia de Pichincha

El GAD parroquial de Tambillo en su afán de mejorar la red de carreteras y caminos del sector, empezó la labor de identificar las carencias que esta presenta, con la realización de estudios de prefactibilidad, con el propósito de obtener la documentación técnica, planos, informes y cantidades de obra, que permitan iniciar con la rehabilitación y mejoramiento de las vías para mejorar el flujo vehicular del transporte. La vía del presente estudio tiene una longitud aproximada de 2.9 km, Por lo tanto, con el presente proyecto se pretende dar ahorro en el costo de operación y mantenimiento de los vehículos y disminuir los tiempos de viaje de los usuarios, y lo más significativo de este proyecto es el uso de las vías para acercar dos barrios de la parroquia como son El Belén y EL Capulí; el lugar de desarrollo del proyecto es en la parte Noreste de la parroquia tambillo, Cantón Mejía, en las cercanías de la Panamericana Sur. Se planteó el diseño geométrico, estructural e hidráulico de la vía, misma cual debe cumplir con todas las normativas nacionales con el fin de obtener un diseño óptimo, mismo que ayudará a impulsar el desarrollo socioeconómico del sector ya que es una zona agrícola y ganadera por tradición.The parish GAD of Tambillo in its eagerness to improve the network of roads and paths of the sector, began the work of identifying the deficiencies that it presents, with the realization of prefeasibility studies, with the purpose of obtaining the technical documentation, plans, reports and quantities of work, which allow to start with the rehabilitation and improvement of the roads to improve the vehicular flow of transport. The road of this study has an approximate length of 2.9 km, Therefore, with this project it is intended to save on the cost of operation and maintenance of vehicles and reduce travel times for users, and the most significant of this project is the use of roads to bring two neighborhoods of the parish such as El Belén and El Capulí; the place of development of the project is in the northeastern part of the parish tambillo, Canton Mejía, in the vicinity of the Panamericana Sur. The geometric, structural and hydraulic design of the road was proposed, which must comply with all national regulations in order to obtain an optimal design, which will help boost the socioeconomic development of the sector since it is an agricultural and livestock area by tradition

Histological Characteristics of Gills and Dorsal Skin in Ambystoma leorae and Ambystoma rivulare: Morphological Changes for Living at High Altitude

Vertebrates exhibit structural changes in their cardiovascular and gas exchange systems in response to hypoxic conditions in high altitude environments. In highland neotenic mole salamanders, as other amphibians, the majority of gases exchange is carried out for skin and gills. But, in high altitude environments, the available oxygen is lower than it is in the air thus, the scarcity of oxygen limits the survival of organisms. Many studies on this subject have focused on understanding the hematological mechanisms that amphibians exhibit in response to hypoxia. However, little is known about possible morphological changes in respiratory structures that may permit increased gas exchange during respiration in high altitude amphibians like Ambystoma leorae and A. rivulare, two threatened Mexican salamander species. The aim of the present study was to describe and compare the histological characteristics of the gills and dorsal skin of A. leorae and A. rivulare from populations at low and high altitudes. We found that, in comparison to lowland organisms, highland ones exhibited more pronounced skin folds, greater numbers of secondary branches in the gills, thinner dorsal and gill epidermises, and greater quantity of melanin surrounding the gill blood vessels. These differences permit a greater capacity for gas exchange and also increase thermoregulatory capacity in high altitude environments.Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (grant 178723) Secretaría de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales (SGPA/DGVS/02407/13)

Asynchronous learning: evaluation of virtual classroom metrics according to the perception of university students

The process and means that the university offers its students must be efficient and of quality, even more so considering the influence of the quality of educational services on student satisfaction. The objective of this article is to analyze the perception of asynchronous learning according to the evaluation of the virtual classroom metrics, carried out by business administration students, the results will allow to continue improving the teaching-learning process in the virtual context of education higher. The methodology of this study is qualitative at the descriptive level, the validation of the data by Cronbach's Alpha, gave a reliability value of 0.985. The results show us that 73.8% of the students perceive that the virtual classroom improved communication and helped the exchange of information between students and 71.4% indicated that the use of the virtual classroom made them more efficient and secure asynchronous learning activities. According to these results, there is a higher percentage of students who consider that the use of the virtual classroom positively influences their asynchronous learning, therefore, it is proposed to continue improving the skills in the use and appropriation of technologies of information and communication technology (ICT) in virtual students.Campus Lima Centr

Evaluation of the learning management system and its relationship in the perception of engineering students

The objective of this study was to identify the results of the learning management system (LMS) functionality, and its relationship in the perception of electronic engineering students. The results serve as a basis for continuous improvement for the higher institution, because these systems are tools that have the purpose of improving the performance and retention of the student in the virtual teaching-learning process. Initially, the reliability of the data collected was determined using Cronbach's Alpha, obtaining a consistency coefficient of 0.868. After processing the data in the SPSS software, using the 5-level Likert scale, it was determined that the indicators that present a better perception are related to the design and ease of navigation. However, 21.4% do not fully agree with the functionality, due to the technical problems presented when downloading the study material. The effect generated by the optimal functionality of the LMS is 70.87% satisfaction in students. The Chi square test validated the cause-effect relationship, with a significance of 0.000, between the functionality of the LMS, on the perception of the students. It determined that the indicators with a greater relationship refer to design, availability (connectivity) and ease of communication and interaction with the teacher and their peers.Campus Lima Centr

Sentiment analysis through twitter as a mechanism for assessing university satisfaction

Currently, the data generated in the university environment related to the perception of satisfaction is generated through surveys with categorical response questions defined on a Likert scale, with factors already defined to be evaluated, applied once per academic semester, which generates very biased information. This leads us to wonder why this survey is applied only once and why it only asks about some factors. The objective of the article is to demonstrate the feasibility of a proposal to determine the degree of perception of student satisfaction through the use of data science and natural language processing (NLP), supported by the social network twitter, as an element of data collection. As a result of the application of this proposal based on data science, it was possible to determine the level of student satisfaction, being 57.27%, through sentiment analysis using the Python library "NLTK"; Thus, it was also possible to extract texts linked to the relevant factors of teaching performance to achieve student satisfaction, through the term frequency and inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) approach, these being those linked to the use of tools of simulation in the virtual learning process.Campus Lima Centr
