Psicòlegs de la UAB detecten trastorns emocionals en "parvulitos"

Molts problemes emocionals enterren les seves arrels en traumes que desenvolupem quan teníem entre 3 i 6 anys d'edat. Un grup d'investigadors de la UAB van portar a terme un estudi per a prevenir les seqüeles que deixen aquests trastorns psicològics en edats posteriors. Mes de 1.000 nens en edat pre-escolar, els seus pares i els seus professors van col·laborar en aquesta investigació i els seus resultats ja estan publicats. De les seves conclusions crida l'atenció que els nens que viuen en un ambient rural gaudeixen d'una major salut mental comparats amb els nens de la ciutat.Muchos problemas emocionales entierran sus raíces en traumas quedesarrollamos cuando teníamos entre 3 y 6 años de edad.

Teachers and Research Practices: Perspectives from English Language Educators in a Philippine University

Given the paucity of studies regarding research practices of teachers, particularly English language teaching (ELT) practitioners in the ASEAN region and in the Philippines, this study explores the research practices of English language teachers in the Philippines. Using purposive-convenience sampling, a total of 49 teachers of English from a Philippine university were asked to answer a survey. To validate the data, pertinent public university documents were examined, and interviews with the university research heads were conducted. Findings suggest that the teachers were cognizant of the link between teaching and their own and their schools’ research practices. This research also reports the teachers’ positive perception towards research, and high receptivity to and interest in it. However, such research engagement was somehow constrained by factors such as crowded teaching timetables or heavy workload, lack of funding or financial support, difficulty in understanding (e.g., the language) published research, and the challenge of contextualising research findings for classroom use. This paper concludes with a note on how a conducive research climate in a school is a requisite in cultivating teachers’ interest in research
