What students with intellectual disabilities know about writing planning
Vice-Rectorate for Research and Transfer of the University of Granada, Spain, Grant/Award Number: [OFRD. 2020-256Background: Studies on the writing of students with intellectual disabilities have
been scarce and unrepresentative. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to
analyse this group of students' abilities to plan their texts
Method: A collective case study was carried out, with an eminently qualitative
approach, although aided by an initial quantitative analysis. Fifteen students with
unspecified intellectual disabilities were interviewed using open-ended questions.
For data interpretation, content analysis and quantification of responses were used.
Results: The results revealed the abilities and limitations of these students regarding
the knowledge and use of one of the key processes of written expression (writing
planning).
Conclusion: The cognitive operations of planning, in which these students admitted
the greatest problems, were the ordering and recording of ideas, and textual
structuring.University of Granada, Spain OFRD. 2020-25
Past Themes and Tracking Research Trends in Entrepreneurship: A Co-Word, Cites and Usage Count Analysis
This paper examines the evolution of research in Entrepreneurship published in Web of Science, a reference database. A bibliometric content analysis has been carried out as part of this investigation, allowing for a longitudinal study of the main research topics dealt with over time, ranging from classic topics such as its conception to more recent realities that include Social and Sustainable Entrepreneurship. This paper locates research trends by studying the evolution of citations and by incorporating use metrics. The results point to the existence of seven cognitive fronts that have marked the field’s growth and conceptual evolution. Furthermore, evidence is presented that shows how innovation has historically been the thread that links all the core themes. The topics and trends detected contribute specially to advancing the current discussion on entrepreneurship and coordinating future research efforts
School counselling with families at psychosocial risk: analysis of educational alliance with kinship foster care
This article analyses the possibilities of creation of educational alliance in schools with families in psycho-social risk and, more specifically, with kinship foster care. Based on four dimensions of the System for Observing Family Therapy Alliances, it focus on the necessary engagement for which kinship caregivers and children feel recognized and welcomed, and stay in it; safety in the system, that allows the family trust in the counsellor and find in the common conversation an open and accessible space; emotional connection, that makes the family feel respected, valued and comprehended by the professional, who trust in their capabilities; and a shared feeling of purpose in the family, for what all the members conceive the orientation as a common issue that motivate to act, providing valuable resources for the success of intervention.Este artĂculo analiza las posibilidades de la creaciĂłn de la alianza educativa en centros escolares con familias en riesgo psico-social y, más concretamente, con acogimientos en familia extensa. Partiendo de las cuatro dimensiones del Sistema de ObservaciĂłn de Alianza TerapĂ©utica en IntervenciĂłn Familiar, se aborda el enganche necesario para que acogedores y menores se sientan reconocidos y acogidos y se mantengan presentes en ella; la seguridad en el sistema, que permite que la familia confĂe en el profesional y encuentre en la conversaciĂłn comĂşn un espacio abierto y accesible; la conexiĂłn emocional, que posibilita que la familia se sienta respetada y comprendida por el profesional, que la valora y confĂa en sus capacidades; y el sentido de compartir el propĂłsito de la orientaciĂłn, para que todos sus miembros perciban la orientaciĂłn como un asunto comĂşn que los interpela a actuar, aportando asĂ más recursos para el Ă©xito de la intervenciĂłn
Improved energy efficiency in wineries using data from audits
The wine production process has a high energy demand of about 1,750 million kWh per year in the EU. Saving energy, responsible consumption and efficient use of energy sources are key aspects to consider for the competitiveness and viability of the sector. Therefore, the TESLA project (Transfering Energy Save Laid on Agroindustry), funded by the European Commission, has conducted 39 energy audits in wineries from four countries (Spain, France, Portugal and Italy). The information collected has allowed them to carry out a comparative analysis of energy efficiency measures through a technical-economic study, calculating the period of return on investment and performing a sensitivity analysis to determine the break-even point for each of the investments analysed. The results show that the replacement of chillers by more efficient ones, the installation of variable speed drives on pumps, the introduction of management and control measures such as the implementation of a Building Management System (BMS) and the installation of energy analysers for identification of consumption by use are the measures that have the greatest quantitative impact
Motivations for the Use of Video Game Streaming Platforms: The Moderating Effect of Sex, Age and Self-Perception of Level as a Player
A particularly striking new phenomenon in recent years is the live streaming of video games through popular platforms, such as Twitch. This study focuses on the motivations and types of use underlying viewer participation in live streaming platforms. Based on the uses and gratifications theory, this paper aims to analyse how three basic motivations are related to the use of video game streaming platforms. Furthermore, it examines the moderating effects that significant variables, such as the audience member’s age, sex or self-perception of level as a player may exert on this relationship. The results reveal that the three types of motivations are positively associated with use of the platform, although notable differences appear, with informational motivations outweighing entertainment and social motivations. At the same time, no moderating effects on the results of the proposed model were found for the heterogeneity stemming from sex and age. Conversely, the influence of informational motivations on the use of these platforms is moderated by the self-perception of level as a player
Exploring the Emerging Domain of Research on Video Game Live Streaming in Web of Science: State of the Art, Changes and Trends
In recent years, interest in video game live streaming services has increased as a new communication instrument, social network, source of leisure, and entertainment platform for millions of users. The rise in this type of service has been accompanied by an increase in research on these platforms. As an emerging domain of research focused on this novel phenomenon takes shape, it is necessary to delve into its nature and antecedents. The main objective of this research is to provide a comprehensive reference that allows future analyses to be addressed with greater rigor and theoretical depth. In this work, we developed a meta-review of the literature supported by a bibliometric performance and network analysis (BPNA). We used the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) protocol to obtain a representative sample of 111 published documents since 2012 and indexed in the Web of Science. Additionally, we exposed the main research topics developed to date, which allowed us to detect future research challenges and trends. The findings revealed four specializations or subdomains: studies focused on the transmitter or streamer; the receiver or the audience; the channel or platform; and the transmission process. These four specializations add to the accumulated knowledge through the development of six core themes that emerge: motivations, behaviors, monetization of activities, quality of experience, use of social networks and media, and gender issues
Ztreamy: a middleware for publishing semantic streams on the web
In order to make the semantic sensor Web a reality, middleware for efficiently publishing semantically-annotated data streams on the Web is needed. Such middleware should be designed to allow third parties to reuse and mash-up data coming from streams. These third parties should even be able to publish their own value-added streams derived from other streams and static data. In this work we present Ztreamy, a scalable middleware platform for the distribution of semantic data streams through HTTP. The platform provides an API for both publishing and consuming streams, as well as built-in filtering services based on data semantics. A key contribution of our proposal with respect to other related systems in the state of the art is its scalability. Our experiments with Ztreamy show that a single server is able, in some configurations, to publish a real-time stream to up to 40.000 simultaneous clients with delivery delays of just a few seconds, largely outperforming other systems in the state of the art.Publicad
