Cloud TAC: OpenStack and Technology Learning and Knowledge for teaching IT Infrastructure

In today's university environment, most students are digital natives. Therefore, it is difficult to imagine their academic life without relating it to the various cloud tools for communication and collaborative work. In this context, university professors work in new scenarios of communication and collaborative work in the classroom. This represents a transformation in the teaching-learning process assisted by new ICTs s in the cloud. Working in the cloud offers the opportunity to transmit new knowledge when using pedagogical strategies supported by computer technologies. With the combination of ICTs and modern teaching-learning processes, the concept of Learning and Knowledge Technologies (TAC) is valuable. This work exposes the academic experience of researching and developing Cloud Computing using an OpenStack configuration so that students can empower themselves with the knowledge and use of cloud technologies. Thus, to be able to teach concepts and practices on IT Infrastructure including activities such as: design, configuration, implementation and administration of a private cloud for academic uses.Instituto de Investigación en InformáticaInstituto de Investigación en Informátic

Tecnologías del aprendizaje y el conocimiento aplicado a la enseñanza de infraestructuras IT

En actuales ámbitos universitarios, observamos que la mayoría de los alumnos son nativos digitales, por lo que es difícil pensar su vida académica sin relacionarla con la diversidad de herramientas cloud masivas tanto para la comunicación como el trabajo colaborativo a través de entornos digitales. En este contexto, los docentes universitarios atraviesan y actúan en diversos escenarios de comunicación áulicos, como también en apertura de trabajo colaborativo digital remoto. Esto constituye un modo de Transformación en el Proceso de Enseñanza-Aprendizaje, apoyándose en las nuevas Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TICs) basadas en la nube, propiciando interacción y transmisión de conocimientos a partir de estrategias pedagógicas apoyadas por tecnologías informáticas. Cubriendo estos aspectos particulares surge el concepto Tecnologías del Aprendizaje y del Conocimiento (TACs) y Tecnologías para el Empoderamiento y la Participación (TEPs). Por lo expuesto, es prioritario reconocer el impacto y la necesidad del manejo e inclusión de las Cloud TACs (este concepto incluye a las TICs) en la gestión docente, permitiendo configurar los espacios digitales de trabajo tanto para el equipo docente, los alumnos, y sus interacciones.Eje: Innovación en Educación Informática.Red de Universidades con Carreras en Informátic

Does Culture Shape Our Understanding of Others’ Thoughts and Emotions? An Investigation Across 12 Countries

Q2Q2Measures of social cognition have now become central in neuropsychology, being essential for early and differential diagnoses, follow-up, and rehabilitation in a wide range of conditions. With the scientific world becoming increasingly interconnected, international neuropsychological and medical collaborations are burgeoning to tackle the global challenges that are mental health conditions. These initiatives commonly merge data across a diversity of populations and countries, while ignoring their specificity. Objective: In this context, we aimed to estimate the influence of participants’ nationality on social cognition evaluation. This issue is of particular importance as most cognitive tasks are developed in highly specific contexts, not representative of that encountered by the world’s population. Method: Through a large international study across 18 sites, neuropsychologists assessed core aspects of social cognition in 587 participants from 12 countries using traditional and widely used tasks. Results: Age, gender, and education were found to impact measures of mentalizing and emotion recognition. After controlling for these factors, differences between countries accounted for more than 20% of the variance on both measures. Importantly, it was possible to isolate participants’ nationality from potential translation issues, which classically constitute a major limitation. Conclusions: Overall, these findings highlight the need for important methodological shifts to better represent social cognition in both fundamental research and clinical practice, especially within emerging international networks and consortia.https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9422-3579https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6529-7077Revista Internacional - IndexadaA2N

The impact of culture on neuropsychological performance: A global social cognition study across 12 countries

AbstractBackgroundDecades of researches aiming to unveil truths about human neuropsychology may have instead unveil facts appropriate to only a fraction of the world's population: those living in western educated rich democratic nations (Muthukrishna et al., 2020 Psych Sci). So far, most studies were conducted as if education and cultural assumptions on which neuropsychology is based were universals and applied everywhere in the world. The importance given to sociological or cultural factors is thus still relatively ignored. With the growth of international clinical studies on dementia, we believe that documenting the potential inter‐cultural differences at stake in a common neuropsychological assessment is an essential topic. This study thus aimed to explore these potential variations in two classical tasks used in neuropsychology that are composing the mini‐SEA (Bertoux et al., 2012 JNNP), i.e. a reduced version of the well‐known Ekman faces (FER), where one has to recognize facial emotions, and a modified version of the Faux Pas test (mFP), where one has to detect and explain social faux.MethodThe data of 573 control participants were collected through the Social Cognition & FTLD Network, an international consortium investigating social cognitive changes in dementia covering 3 continents (18 research centres in 12 countries). Impact of demographic factors and the effect of countries on performance (mini‐SEA, FER, mFP) were explored through linear mixed‐effects models.ResultAge, education and gender were found to significantly impact the performance of the mini‐SEA subtests. Significant and important variations across the countries were also retrieved, with England having the highest performance for all scores. When controlling for demographical factors, differences within countries explained between 14% (mFP) and 24% (FER) of the variance at the mini‐SEA. These variations were not explained by any economical or sociological metrics.ConclusionImportant variations of performance were observed across the 12 countries of the consortium, showing how cultural differences may critically impact neuropsychological performance in international studies

INIMEC, CONICET. Córdoba, ArgentinaIn the protozoa parasite Giardia lamblia, endocytosis and lysosomal protein trafficking are vital parasite-specific processes that involve the action of the adaptor complexes AP-1 and AP-2 and clathrin. In this work, we have identified a single gene in Giardia encoding a protein containing an ENTH domain that defines monomeric adaptor proteins of the epsin family. This domain is present in the epsin or epsin-related (epsinR) adaptor proteins, which are implicated in endocytosis and Golgi-to-endosome protein trafficking, respectively, in other eukaryotic cells. We found that GlENTHp (for G. lamblia ENTH protein) localized in the cytosol, strongly interacted with PI3,4,5P3,was associatedwith the alpha subunit of AP-2, clathrin and ubiquitin andwas involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis. It also bonded PI4P, the gamma subunit of AP-1 and was implicated in ER-to- PV trafficking. Alteration of the GlENTHp function severely affected trophozoite growth showing an unusual accumulation of dense material in the lysosome-like peripheral vacuoles (PVs), indicating that GlENTHp might be implicated in themaintenance of PV homeostasis. In this study,we showed evidence suggesting that GlENTHp might function as a monomeric adaptor protein supporting the findings of other group indicating that GlENTHp might be placed at the beginning of the ENTH family
