    Este trabajo se inscribe en una de las líneas de investigación que desarrolla el Area de Metodología y Didáctica de las Bellas Artes de esta Facultad, y que pretende la utilización de recursos didácticos en los museos de nuestra Comunidad Canaria. Dentro de este proyecto se desarrolló, durante el curso 1986-87, una experiencia concreta, consistente en la elaboración de un material didáctico de apoyo y de la propuesta de actividades para el Museo Municipal de Bellas Artes de S/C de Tenerife; la eficacia de esta propuesta se pudo comprobar en el propio museo, de modo que todos los alumnos colaboradores tuvimos la oportunidad de contactar directamente con el hecho educativo en un museo. Con esta experiencia surge una curiosidad personal en torno a esta temática. Siendo a partir de la concesión de una Beca de Investigación del Programa General Predoctores en España, cuando me acerco definitivamente a su conocimiento, a través de distintas publicaciones y contactos con centros museísticos. Mientras crecía mi interés por el tema, iba descubriendo una auténtica "mina" de posibilidades que había que "explotar" en sus máximas consecuencias; algo impensable a la vista de la situación general de nuestros museos

    Este proyecto pretende una puesta en valor de nuestro acervo cultural desde su función didáctica con aplicaciones a todos los grupos de visitantes, desde la enseñanza formal hasta el turismo, partiendo de premisas pedagógicas que consideramos claves en la gestión del Patrimonio: metodología activa vivencial, educación por el arte, pedagogía sociocultural, transversalidad, interdisciplinariedad... La propuesta supone el desarrollo de un modelo para la puesta en marcha de itinerarios temáticos, con la visita y desarrollo de actividades en lugares donde confluyen elementos patrimoniales significativos relacionados con un determinado tema. Igualmente, y como elemento motivador y museográfico de apoyo, se crearían estructuras expositivas itinerantes, para el establecimiento de exposiciones itinerantes que ilustren la temática.This project aims to evaluate our cultural heritage from its didactic function with applications to all groups of visitors, from formal training to tourism, beginning with educational premises that we consider key factors in managing heritage resources: existential active methodology, education through art, sociocultural education, transversality, interdisciplinary nature... The proposal involves the development of a model for the implementation of thematic itineraries, with visiting and the development of activities in places where significant heritage elements related to a particular subject come together. Likewise, and as a motivational and museographic support factor, itinerant exhibition structures will be created to establish itinerant exhibitions that illustrate the subject matter

    El propósito de este trabajo ha sido favorecer la adecuada formación inicial de los profesionales de la enseñanza artística, desde el apropiado uso educativo del Patrimonio Cultural, dotando a los futuros enseñantes de acertadas y eficaces herramientas de trabajo que contribuyan al mejor conocimiento y disfrute del Arte, promoviendo un aprovechamiento educativo del patrimonio como recurso para una enseñanza integradora, creativa, critica y comprometida con la comunidad. Así, los objetivos mayores que hemos perseguido para los docentes se han dirigido a sensibilizarlos acerca de los beneficios del uso del Patrimonio como herramienta educativa, a su capacitación para el mejor diseño y planificación de actividades en este ámbito, con y para adaptar los contenidos curriculares a los intereses de su alumnado desde la perspectiva del patrimonio cultural. Igualmente, para los educandos, se persiguió ampliar conductas de valoración, identificación, disfrute y respeto hacia el Arte y el Patrimonio, y concienciar de la importancia y necesidad de su protección y conservación. La dinámica del estudio se basó en introducir a los futuros enseñantes, conformados en pequeños grupos de trabajo, en un taller creativo de investigación y descubrimiento, integrador de teoría y práctica para en el diseño y realización de unidades de aprendizaje, unas partiendo de una obra artística y otras en un conjunto patrimonial. Como resultado se generaron distintas unidades didácticas de relevante nivel, muy creativas y sugerentes.The main objective of this essay is to promote a suitable initial training for Art Education professionals, principally based on appropriated educational use of Cultural Heritage. Giving to future teachers effective and successful work tools that contribute to a much better understanding and appreciation of Arts. In the same way, this work aims to foster the practice of Heritage as a valid resource towards a creative, inclusive and critical education. A secondary objective is to encourage teacher awareness about benefits of Cultural Heritage as an educational instrument, through out an efficient training that endorses pedagogical designing Art fields. Moreover, it points out adaptation of certain curriculum content based on student cultural heritage interests. At the same time, this work identifies positive student conducts towards appreciation and respect of Art and Cultural Heritage This project was based on a creative research workshop elaborated by groups of future teachers, looking for integration between theory and practice and the design of new learning units. Some of them were developed on the base of art pieces and others heritage sites. Thus, different creative and suggestive teaching units were generate

    Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Risk portfolio on modern finance has become increasingly technical, requiring the use of sophisticated mathematical tools in both research and practice. Since companies cannot insure themselves completely against risk, as human incompetence in predicting the future precisely that written in Al-Quran surah Luqman verse 34, they have to manage it to yield an optimal portfolio. The objective here is to minimize the variance among all portfolios, or alternatively, to maximize expected return among all portfolios that has at least a certain expected return. Furthermore, this study focuses on optimizing risk portfolio so called Markowitz MVO (Mean-Variance Optimization). Some theoretical frameworks for analysis are arithmetic mean, geometric mean, variance, covariance, linear programming, and quadratic programming. Moreover, finding a minimum variance portfolio produces a convex quadratic programming, that is minimizing the objective function ðð¥with constraintsð ð 𥠥 ðandð´ð¥ = ð. The outcome of this research is the solution of optimal risk portofolio in some investments that could be finished smoothly using MATLAB R2007b software together with its graphic analysis

    Search for heavy resonances decaying to two Higgs bosons in final states containing four b quarks

    Get PDF
    A search is presented for narrow heavy resonances X decaying into pairs of Higgs bosons (H) in proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at root s = 8 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb(-1). The search considers HH resonances with masses between 1 and 3 TeV, having final states of two b quark pairs. Each Higgs boson is produced with large momentum, and the hadronization products of the pair of b quarks can usually be reconstructed as single large jets. The background from multijet and t (t) over bar events is significantly reduced by applying requirements related to the flavor of the jet, its mass, and its substructure. The signal would be identified as a peak on top of the dijet invariant mass spectrum of the remaining background events. No evidence is observed for such a signal. Upper limits obtained at 95 confidence level for the product of the production cross section and branching fraction sigma(gg -> X) B(X -> HH -> b (b) over barb (b) over bar) range from 10 to 1.5 fb for the mass of X from 1.15 to 2.0 TeV, significantly extending previous searches. For a warped extra dimension theory with amass scale Lambda(R) = 1 TeV, the data exclude radion scalar masses between 1.15 and 1.55 TeV

    MUSiC : a model-unspecific search for new physics in proton-proton collisions at root s=13TeV

    Results of the Model Unspecific Search in CMS (MUSiC), using proton-proton collision data recorded at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1), are presented. The MUSiC analysis searches for anomalies that could be signatures of physics beyond the standard model. The analysis is based on the comparison of observed data with the standard model prediction, as determined from simulation, in several hundred final states and multiple kinematic distributions. Events containing at least one electron or muon are classified based on their final state topology, and an automated search algorithm surveys the observed data for deviations from the prediction. The sensitivity of the search is validated using multiple methods. No significant deviations from the predictions have been observed. For a wide range of final state topologies, agreement is found between the data and the standard model simulation. This analysis complements dedicated search analyses by significantly expanding the range of final states covered using a model independent approach with the largest data set to date to probe phase space regions beyond the reach of previous general searches.Peer reviewe

    The production cross sections for prompt open-charm mesons in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV are reported. The measurement is performed using a data sample collected by the CMS experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 29 nb(-1). The differential production cross sections of the D*(+/-), D-+/-, and D-0 ((D) over bar (0)) mesons are presented in ranges of transverse momentum and pseudorapidity 4 < p(T) < 100 GeV and vertical bar eta vertical bar < 2.1, respectively. The results are compared to several theoretical calculations and to previous measurements.Peer reviewe
