El espacio como instrumento de formación. Arquitectura como estrategia educativa aplicado a un Jardín Infantil
Artículo de GradoEl proyecto se desarrolla como ejercicio académico en un contexto real donde se propone adoptar y entender la transformación de la idea de diseño en las instalaciones educacionales en el país con base en la petición que la secretaria de educación le hizo a el Arq. Frank Locker, donde el arquitecto debe establecer criterios de diseño en búsqueda de cambiar la forma de aprender, todo esto basado en la relación entre el tipo de educación y la arquitectura como lugar de aprendizaje, enfocado en lo que la educación Colombiana busca.1.

A theory of moving form perception: Synergy between masking, perceptual grouping, and motion computation in retinotopic and non-retinotopic representations
Because object and self-motion are ubiquitous in natural viewing conditions,
understanding how the human visual system achieves a relatively clear perception
for moving objects is a fundamental problem in visual perception. Several
studies have shown that the visible persistence of a briefly presented
stationary stimulus is approximately 120 ms under normal viewing conditions.
Based on this duration of visible persistence, we would expect moving objects to
appear highly blurred. However, in human vision, objects in motion typically
appear relatively sharp and clear. We suggest that clarity of form in dynamic
viewing is achieved by a synergy between masking, perceptual grouping, and
motion computation across retinotopic and non-retinotopic representations. We
also argue that dissociations observed in masking are essential to create and
maintain this synergy
Population-based study of the relationship of treatment and sociodemographics on quality of life for early stage breast cancer
Objective : To examine the relationship between cancer stage, surgical treatment and chemotherapy on quality of life (QOL) after breast cancer and determine if sociodemographic characteristics modify the observed relationships. Methods : A population-based sample of women with Stages 0–II breast cancer in the United States (N=1357) completed surveys including the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), and the Breast Cancer-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ BR-23). Regression models calculated mean QOL scores across primary surgical treatment and chemotherapy. Clinically significant differences in QOL were defined as 10 point difference (out of 100) between groups. Results : Meaningful differences in QOL by surgical treatment were limited to body image with women receiving mastectomy with reconstruction reporting lower scores than women receiving breast conserving surgery ( p < 0.001). Chemotherapy lowered QOL scores overall across four QOL dimensions ( p values < 0.001), with a disproportionately greater impact on those with lower levels of education. Younger women reported lower QOL scores for seven of nine QOL dimensions ( p values < 0.001). Conclusions : Women should be reassured that few QOL differences exist based on surgical treatment, however, clinicians should recognize that the impact of treatment on QOL does vary by a woman’s age and educational level.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43570/1/11136_2005_Article_0288.pd
