    Traballo Fin de Grao en Lingua e Literatura Inglesas. Curso 2020-2021This study is focused on the Heritage of Puritanism in the fiction of Nathaniel Hawthorne, making emphasis on the impact of sin, also related to evil and guilt, in Hawthorne’s characters and plots. Nathaniel Hawthorne was very interested in expressing these Puritan principles and ideas in his works because he aimed to provide his public with a very critical evaluation of Puritanism. Even though in some aspects, Nathaniel Hawthorne rejected the Puritan beliefs, he was remarkably influenced by them. The corpus used for this project is based on novels and short stories related to the Puritan ideology in which Nathaniel Hawthorne was born and raised. Among the different works used to make a rigorous study on this topic are a few tales and narratives, all of them written by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Some of these texts that constitute the basis of this project are “The Minister’s Black Veil”, “Young Goodman Brown”, “The Scarlet Letter” and “The House of the Seven Gables”, among others. The main aim of this study is to examine the close relationship that exists between Hawthorne’s fiction and the Puritan religion, as well as the reflections of the big impact of Puritan beliefs on every one of Hawthorne’s stories and novels. The method used to analyse the impact of Puritanism in Hawthorne’s work is based on the precise study of different literary works from Hawthorne, comparing how Puritan ideals are differently portrayed in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s fiction

    Investigación en contexto: aportes para una didáctica de las ciencias naturales en Hispanoamérica

    Get PDF
    El libro aborda temas de investigación en áreas como biología, física y química, presentando reflexiones y procedimientos realizados por profesores de diferentes niveles académicos, lo que brinda elementos conceptuales y pragmáticos contemporáneos para afrontar los desafíos que demanda la enseñanza de estas ciencias.Los modelos científicos de las ciencias naturales con los que se explican los fenómenos del mundo son los mismos sin importar el idioma con que se comuniquen, lo que cambia es la intencionalidad didáctica con la que se quieren enseñar esos modelos o teorías y el nivel para el que son pensados. Ante este contexto el Instituto de Estudios en Educación (IESE) ofrece esta publicación en la que se reportan resultados de estudios locales, regionales e hispanoamericanos en el campo de la Didáctica de las Ciencias Naturales

    El estudio tiene como objetivo establecer la relación entre el acompañamiento psicológico y la permanencia estudiantil, mediante el análisis de las variables individuales, académicas y sociodemográficas. El estudio siguió un diseño Ex post-facto, de tipo descriptivo correlacional con un muestreo censal de 520 estudiantes quienes han asistido a acompañamiento psicológico de manera voluntaria. La información fue obtenida mediante un cuestionario que explora características sociodemográficas, académicas y específicas de seguimiento psicológico. Se realizaron análisis comparativos y correlaciónales encontrando una relación positiva entre la permanencia y el acompañamiento psicológico breve ante crisis situacionales. Adicionalmente, se concluyó que la permanencia estudiantil se relaciona con la edad, el género, el semestre, el promedio, el motivo de consulta y el método terapéutico desarrollado en el proceso de acompañamiento psicológico. Se discutieron los resultados a la luz de antecedentes que han explicado los fenómenos de la permanencia y la deserción en contexto escolares.O estudo tem como objetivo estabelecer a relação entre o acompanhamento psicológico e a permanência estudantil, mediante a análise das variáveis individuais, acadêmicas e sóciodemográficas.

    Randomized controlled trial of Nuevo Amanecer: A peer-delivered stress management intervention for Spanish-speaking Latinas with breast cancer

    BACKGROUND: Latinas with breast cancer suffer symptom and psychosocial health disparities. Effective interventions have not been developed for or tested in this population. PURPOSE: We describe community-based participatory research methods used to develop and implement the Nuevo Amanecer program, a culturally tailored, peer-delivered cognitive-behavioral stress management intervention for low-income Spanish-speaking Latinas with breast cancer, and unique considerations in implementing a randomized controlled trial to test the program in community settings. METHODS: We applied an implementation science framework to delineate the methodological phases used to develop and implement the Nuevo Amanecer program and trial, emphasizing community engagement processes. RESULTS: In phase 1, we established project infrastructure: academic and community Co-Principal Investigators, community partners, community advisory board, steering committee, and funding. In phase 2, we identified three program inputs: formative research, a community best practices model, and an evidence-based intervention tested in non-Latinas. In phase 3, we created the new program by integrating and adapting intervention components from the three sources, making adaptations to accommodate low-literacy, Spanish language, cultural factors, community context, and population needs. In phase 4, we built community capacity for the program and trial by training field staff (recruiters and interventionists embedded in community sites), compensating field staff, and creating a system for identifying potential participants. In phase 5, we implemented and monitored the program and trial. Engaging community partners in all phases has resulted in a new, culturally tailored program that is suitable for newly diagnosed Latinas with breast cancer and a trial that is acceptable and supported by community and clinical partners. LESSONS LEARNED: Engagement of community-based organizations and cancer survivors as research partners and hiring recruiters and interventionists from the community were critical to successful implementation in community settings. Having culturally and linguistically competent research staff with excellent interpersonal skills facilitated implementation. Facilitating and maintaining excellent communication among community partners was imperative to troubleshoot implementation issues. Randomization was challenging due to community concerns about assigning women to a control group. Patient privacy regulations and the need for extensive outreach to establish relationships between community partners and clinical sites hampered initial recruitment. LIMITATIONS: These were resource-intensive processes to develop and implement the program that need to be compared to less intensive alternatives. CONCLUSIONS: Engaging community members in design and implementation of community-based programs and trials enhances cultural appropriateness and congruence with the community context. If the randomized trial demonstrates that the intervention is effective, it will fill a gap in evidence-based programs to address ethnic disparities in quality of life among Spanish-speaking Latinas with breast cancer
