Internet en el contexto de la comunicación multimedia: un instrumento para el desarrollo científico en educación

En este artículo, se presenta un conjunto de consideraciones de índole teórico sobre el impacto de los avances tecnológicos, vinculados a la comunicación multimedia y a las redes avanzadas, en la actividad humana. Tras un recorrido por distintas teorías con influencia en el desarrollo de conocimientos sobre medios de enseñanza, se apuntan algunas alternativas teóricas actuales (Constructivismo, Aprendizaje Situado y Teoría sociocultural) para la consideración de Internet como instrumento cultural, que permite reconceptualizar los procesos de mediación educativa. Asimismo, se valoran los cambios que produce la aparición de este medio, en el contexto de la cultura digital, sobre los procesos de investigación científica en educación y, como consecuencia, en la enseñanza de éstosIn this article, we show some theoretical considerations about the impact of technological and scientific advances, which are linked to multimedia communication and advanced networks, on human activity. Since that we present the different theories, which have influence on the development of knowledge about teaching media, we identify some actual theoretical options (Constructivism, Situated Learning and Sociocultural Theory) to consider Internet as cultural tool, what we allow us to reconceptualize the processes of educational mediation. In the same way, the changes produced by Internet, into the digital culture, on processes of educational scientific research and, in consequence, on the teaching of these processes are assessed

Los resultados muestran que hay tres elementos básicos en el éxito del meme: el contenido emocional, un humor sofisticado y el capital social del creador.The digital meme is a disputed format in the current political and social debate. This paper explores the meme’s features as regards its virality. The study combines qualitative and quantitative methodology to analyse a sample of political memes in Spain. The results show three key features: emotional topics, complex humour, and the digital social capital of meme-creators

Identidades profesionales en educación desde una perspectiva de género

Este trabajo presenta los resultados de una investigación sobre los perfiles y trayectorias profesionales de pedagogos/as. Fundamentado en los planteamientos de la teoría feminista y en la línea de los estudios de género, el objetivo científico ha sido descubrir las formas cualitativamente distintas en que los profesionales experimentan, perciben y comprenden su realidad profesional. Conocer esta diversidad de caminos y perfiles que definen la identidad profesional de un/una pedagogo/a introduce datos novedosos para la construcción de una imagen ajustada a la actual práctica profesional de la pedagogía, así como para el análisis y reflexión sobre la heterogeneidad de modelos y trayectorias profesionales en educación, superando concepciones y modelos tradicionales, normativos y esterotipados respecto al ejercicio de una profesión.This paper presents the outcomes of an research focused on educators’ profiles and professional trajectories. Starting from feminist theory and gender studies, the main aim is to study the qualitatively different ways that professionals feel, perceive and understand their professional activity settings. To know this diversity of trajectories and profiles constituents of the educator’s professional identity introduce valuable data for the construction of a realistic picture of the current professional practise, as well as for the analysis and reflection on the heterogeneity of models and professional routes in education. This involves breaking traditional, standard and stereotyped models of the professional practise

Multicentre, randomised, single-blind, parallel group trial to compare the effectiveness of a Holter for Parkinson's symptoms against other clinical monitoring methods: study protocol

Introduction In recent years, multiple studies have aimed to develop and validate portable technological devices capable of monitoring the motor complications of Parkinson's disease patients (Parkinson's Holter). The effectiveness of these monitoring devices for improving clinical control is not known. Methods and analysis This is a single-blind, cluster-randomised controlled clinical trial. Neurologists from Spanish health centres will be randomly assigned to one of three study arms (1:1:1): (a) therapeutic adjustment using information from a Parkinson?s Holter that will be worn by their patients for 7 days, (b) therapeutic adjustment using information from a diary of motor fluctuations that will be completed by their patients for 7 days and (c) therapeutic adjustment using clinical information collected during consultation. It is expected that 162 consecutive patients will be included over a period of 6 months. The primary outcome is the efficiency of the Parkinson?s Holter compared with traditional clinical practice in terms of Off time reduction with respect to the baseline (recorded through a diary of motor fluctuations, which will be completed by all patients). As secondary outcomes, changes in variables related to other motor complications (dyskinesia and freezing of gait), quality of life, autonomy in activities of daily living, adherence to the monitoring system and number of doctor?patient contacts will be analysed. The noninferiority of the Parkinson's Holter against the diary of motor fluctuations in terms of Off time reduction will be studied as the exploratory objective. Ethics and dissemination approval for this study has been obtained from the Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge Ethics Committee. The results of this study will inform the practical utility of the objective information provided by a Parkinson's Holter and, therefore, the convenience of adopting this technology in clinical practice and in future clinical trials. We expect public dissemination of the results in 2022.Funding This work is supported by AbbVie S.L.U, the Instituto de Salud Carlos III [DTS17/00195] and the European Fund for Regional Development, 'A way to make Europe'

Charged-particle multiplicities in pp interactions at root s=900 GeV measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC

22 páginas, 4 figuras, 1 tabla.-- et al.(ATLAS Collaboration).-- arXiv:1003.3124v2The first measurements from proton-proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented. Data were collected in December 2009 using a minimum-bias trigger during collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 900 GeV. The charged-particle multiplicity, its dependence on transverse momentum and pseudorapidity. and the relationship between mean transverse momentum and charged-particle multiplicity are measured for events with at least one charged particle in the kinematic range vertical bar eta vertical bar 500 MeV. The measurements are compared to Monte Carlo models of proton-proton collisions and to results from other experiments at the same centre-of-mass energy. The charged-particle multiplicity per event and unit of pseudorapidity eta = 0 is measured to be 1.333 +/- 0.003(stat.) +/- 0.040(syst.), which is 5-15% higher than the Monte Carlo models predict.We are greatly indebted to all CERN’s departments and to the LHC project for their immense efforts not only in building the LHC, but also for their direct contributions to the construction and installation of the ATLAS detector and its infrastructure. All our congratulations go to the LHC operation team for the superb performance during this initial data-taking period. We acknowledge equally warmly all our technical colleagues in the collaborating Institutions without whom the ATLAS detector could not have been built. Furthermore we are grateful to all the funding agencies which supported generously the construction and the commissioning of the ATLAS detector and also provided the computing infrastructure. The ATLAS detector design and construction has taken about fifteen years, and our thoughts are with all our colleagues who sadly could not see its final realisation.

Search for WZ resonances in the fully leptonic channel using pp collisions at s=8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

A search for resonant WZ production in the ℓνℓ'ℓ' (ℓ,ℓ'=e,μ) decay channel using 20.3 fb-1 of s=8TeV pp collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at LHC is presented. No significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed and upper limits on the production cross sections of WZ resonances from an extended gauge model W' and from a simplified model of heavy vector triplets are derived. A corresponding observed (expected) lower mass limit of 1.52 (1.49) TeV is derived for the W' at the 95% confidence level.Peer Reviewe
