An explorative study of socioeconomic characteristics and needs of Hispanic parents of children with special needs in one western Massachusetts school district.

This study describes the socioeconomic characteristics, assesses the basic information about special education the Hispanic parents are interested in knowing about through educational workshops and orientation, and identifies the need for services that allow the Hispanic parents active participation in the educational processes of their children with special needs. The involvement of parents in the education of their children with special needs at the national level was mandated by Public Law 94-142, The Education of All Handicapped Children Act of 1975. According to this Federal Law, the parents have the right to be active participants in decision making related to the educational needs of their children, especially in the development of the Individualized Educational Plan (IEP). According to the literature reviewed, parents are usually less prepared to actively participate in IEP conferences since they possess the least amount of knowledge pertaining to laws, advocacy, rights, sources, and special education procedures. Studies have demonstrated that participation of parents in the decision-making process has been passive, limited to giving and receiving information, and sometimes simply signing the Individualized Educational Plan (IEP). The lack of knowledge about Public Law 94-142 and about the procedures of special education related to services makes necessary the creation of educational workshops addressed to parents of children with special needs. In the first part of this study, it was found that Hispanic parents surveyed in the site selected for this research study show particular socioeconomic characteristics that should be taken into consideration when active participation and involvement in the educational process of their children with special needs is expected. Findings in the second and third part of this study should be taken into consideration by school personnel, administrators, and community-based program directors when planning, developing, and providing educational workshops, counseling, and orientation to a culturally-diverse population

Developing Spanish Online Readings Using Design-Based Research

This article reports on the use of design-based research (DBR) in the development of online reading materials for beginning and intermediate Spanish learners. The report focuses on four studies of two main aspects of the development, namely, interface design and learner perceptions. The discussion of interface design includes the analysis of learner expectations and interface organization. The analysis of learner perceptions includes frequency of use and impact of multimedia glosses on the learning of vocabulary. Findings reveal the importance of involving learners in all aspects of materials design and development and make evident the strengths of a DBR approach to the research and development of instructional materials for language learning

Concordancia entre las ecuaciones de estimación de filtrado glomerular (Cockcroft-Gault y MDRD) y el aclaramiento de creatinina en orina de 24 horas en pacientes trasplantados renales de más de 1año de evolución con normofunción de injerto. Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins enero – mayo 2011

Publicación a texto completo no autorizada por el autorEstudia la concordancia de las diferentes ecuaciones utilizadas para estimar la tasa de filtración glomerular (Cockcroft-Gault Y MDRD) aplicado a pacientes con trasplante renal con normofunción renal (TFG ≥ 60ml/min/1.73m2) y con función renal estable y en comparación con el método estándar: depuración de creatinina en 24 horas (CrCl 24). Realiza un estudio transversal con pacientes trasplantados renales con normofunción y con función renal estable en la unidad de consultorio externo. Se realiza el cálculo del filtrado glomerular mediante depuración de creatinina en orina 24 horas y las fórmulas de Cockcroft-Gault y MDRD simplificada en pacientes trasplanstados renales desde el año 2005 al 2010. Luego se utiliza comparación de medias (U de Mann-Whitney), coeficiente de correlación de Sperman y la concordancia entre los diferentes métodos se hará con el coeficiente kappa. Se incluyeron en el estudio 40 pacientes que cumplían con criterios establecidos. La media ± DE global de FGe por CrCl 24: 83,09 ± 16,59 ml/min (rango 61,25-130,35); CG: 74,09± 15,28 ml/min (rango 47,89-112,96) y MDRD: 71,18± 20,35 ml/min (rango 48,26-167,09). Las variaciones en el FGe al comparar los métodos son CrCl 24 frente a CG: 8,99 ml/min (IC95%: 4,11; 13,88); CrCl frente MDRD: 11,91ml/min (IC95%: 7,35; 16,46); CG frente MDRD : 2,91 ml/min (IC95%: -2,34, 8,16). El grado de correlación entre CrCl 24 y las fórmulas matemáticas derivadas de la Crs es para CG: r = 0,482 (p = 0,002) y para MDRD: r = 0,659 (p <0,001); El valor kappa de CrCl24 con CG es 0,293 y CrCl24 con MDRD es 0,297. Concluye que las pruebas de función renal evaluadas (Cockcroft-Gaul y MDRD simplificada) mostraron una adecuada correlación con el método de referencia pero las dos revelaron una considerable falta de concordancia.Trabajo académic

Tratamiento de aguas residuales y problemáticas ambientales del sector textil en Colombia: una revisión

The textile industry represents a decisive figure due to the negative impacts generated by its production processes on the quality of water, air, soil, and waste management. In particular, there is great concern about water resources, due to the quantities and types of chemicals used by this industry. For this reason, this article reviews the problems of wastewater from the textile industry and the technological advances for its treatment. As a result, it is found that small and medium-sized companies correspond to the most vulnerable sector in terms of their capacity to face the growing social, regulatory, and fiscal pressure in environmental matters, with needs for environmental goods and services that are increasing due to the informality of many companies, which, therefore, are not subject to any type of control by the environmental authorities. Different textile wastewater treatment methodologies were identified, including combined techniques such as electrocoagulation and electro-oxidation, advanced oxidation processes (PAO), Fenton (H2O/Fe2+) or photo-Fenton (UV/H2O2/Fe2+), among others, which guarantee high performance in the elimination, for example, of parameters such as chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and color. In addition, the use of titania nanomaterials as good adsorbents of metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and nickel (Ni) and, as a low-cost alternative for small companies, waste materials, and minerals as good adsorbents of dyes, which can be reused with high efficiencies in several cycles.La industria textil representa una figura decisiva debido a los impactos negativos que generan sus procesos productivos en materia de calidad del agua, aire, suelo y la gestión de sus residuos. En especial, existe gran preocupación sobre el recurso hídrico, por las cantidades y los tipos de químicos que emplea esta industria. Por ello, en este artículo se lleva a cabo una revisión sobre la problemática de las aguas residuales provenientes de la industria textil y los avances tecnológicos para el tratamiento de estas. Como resultado se encuentra que, as pequeñas y medianas empresas corresponden al sector de las empresas más vulnerables en términos de su capacidad para enfrentar la creciente presión social, regulatoria y de fiscalización en materia ambiental, con necesidades de bienes y servicios ambientales que se encrudecen a raíz de la informalidad de muchas empresas, a las que, por ende, no se les realiza ningún tipo de control por parte de las autoridades ambientales. Así mismo, se identificaron diferentes metodologías de tratamiento de aguas residuales textiles, que incluyen técnicas combinadas, como la electrocoagulación y electro-oxidación, procesos avanzados de oxidación (PAO), Fenton (H2O/Fe2+) o foto-Fenton (UV/H2O2/Fe2+), entre otros, que garantizan altos rendimientos en la eliminación, por ejemplo, de parámetros como la demanda química de oxígeno (DQO), la demanda bioquímica de oxígeno (DBO), y el color. Adicional a ello, se resalta el uso de nanomateriales de titania como buenos adsorbentes de metales como plomo (Pb), cadmio (Cd), cobre (Cu), zinc (Zn), y níquel (Ni) y, como alternativa de bajo costo para las pequeñas empresas, materiales de desecho y minerales como buenos adsorbentes de colorantes, que se pueden reutilizar con altas eficiencias en varios ciclos

Os efeitos de limitadas capacidades materiais na política externa de potências intermediárias do sistema internacional:o caso do Brasil

Tese de doutoramento, Ciência Política (Política Comparada), Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Direito, Faculdade de Letras, Instituto de Ciências Sociais, 2013Esta tese de doutoramento aborda os efeitos das capacidades materiais sobre a política externa de atores intermediários do sistema internacional. Avalia a acuidade de uma abordagem estrutural sobre a política externa brasileira a partir de dados sobre a distribuição de capacidades materiais e de evidência empírica. Demonstra assim que ele apresentou uma política externa de «bandwagoning» tradicional entre 1930 e 1970, de «bandwagonig for profit» entre 1970 e 1990, que retornou ao «bandwagoning» tradicional entre 1990 e 2000 e que a partir de 2002 retoma o «bandwagoning for profit». Ao longo do século XX migrou de um comportamento de “cordeiro” pró-status quo para o de “chacal” na oscilação entre o reformismo e o revisionismo. Além disso, a análise mostra que para o Brasil adotar o revisionismo limitado é necessária a existência simultânea dos seguintes fatores: (1) a percepção de mudanças na distribuição de capacidades ao nível sistêmico; (2) a existência de um ator revisionista emergente que estabeleça relações políticas e econômicas com a América Latina e (3) que haja um incremento nas capacidades materiais brasileiras. Isto foi verificado em três casos: na barganha nacionalista dos anos 30, com a aproximação da Alemanha; na Política Externa Independente dos anos 70, com a equilibração e a aproximação do terceiro-mundismo e na atual política externa brasileira, com a emergência da China. A exiguidade de suas capacidades condicionam a sua política externa brasileira a uma atuação dependente das grandes potências e em relação direta com os efeitos permissivos e restritivos do sistema internacional.This doctoral thesis evaluates the effects of material capabilities on the foreign policy of intermediary actors in the international system. It evaluates the accuracy of a structural approach on Brazilian foreign policy based on data about the distribution of material capabilities and empirical evidence. Demonstrates how he had a foreign policy of 'bandwagoning' traditional between 1930 and 1970, "bandwagonig for profit" between 1970 and 1990, he returned to the 'bandwagoning' traditional between 1990 and 2000 and from 2002 takes over the' bandwagoning for profit. "Throughout the twentieth century migrated from an attitude of "lamb" pro-status quo for the "jackal" in the oscillation between reformism and revisionism. Furthermore, the analysis shows that for Brazil adopt the limited revisionism is required the simultaneous existence of the following factors: (1) the perception of changes in the distribution of capabilities to the systemic level, (2) the existence of an emerging actor revisionist to establish political and economic relations with Latin America and (3) to have a material increase in capabilities in Brazil. This was verified in three cases: in the bargain nationalist '30s, with the approach of Germany, the ‘Política Externa Independente’ of the 70s, with the approach of balancing and third-worldism and current Brazilian foreign policy, with the emergence of China. The scarcity of their capabilities affect its Brazilian foreign policy to a dependent role of great powers and in direct relation to the permissive and restrictive effects of the international system.Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT, SFRH/BD/72711/2010

Efecto de la adición de carbonato de bismuto en óxido de zirconio en el proceso de producción de hidrógeno vía fotocatalítica

The present investigation describes the synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic evaluation of the composite materials ZrO2-Bi2O2(CO3) which were synthesized by the chemical co-precipitation method. The solids were prepared by modifying the content of Bi2O2(CO3), obtaining samples at 0.5, 1 and 2% mol, in order to determine the influence of the percentage of Bi2O2(CO3) in ZrO2 on the production of H2 via photocatalytic process. The same mechanism of synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic evaluation of the reference materials ZrO2 and Bi2O2(CO3) was carried out to compare their activity with that of the composite materials. The materials were characterized in order to study their structural, textural and optical properties. In this sense, the solids were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, N2 physisorption, and X Ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The evaluation of the photocatalytic activity of the materials was carried out in the production of H2 under UV light irradiation. The results showed that ZrO2 with the addition of Bi2O2(CO3) significantly improves the photocatalytic behavior compared to the reference materials

Virtual Learning During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Opening for the Implementation of a Blended Learning Modality in the Chemistry Class at High School Level

The pandemic caused by the SARS-COV2 virus, known as COVID-19 brought with it a series of challenges for educational and teaching institutions, since, from one moment to the next, the need for a massive migration from face-to-face education to online education, using educational technological tools, however, is considered that it is necessary to restructure teaching and implement a blenden learning model, which is characterized by the integration of various pedagogical and didactic resources in face-to-face and virtual environments to achieve meaningful learning through the construction of knowledge in subjects that are the basis for many careers in the health sciences such as Chemistry. The objective of this study was to analyze the relevance of implementing a hybrid model in education at the high school level in the Chemistry class, through the incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies as educational tools. According to the results, the implementation of a b-learning model is an alternative strategy for the teaching-learning of Chemistry and, at the same time, makes it possible to reduce the health risk that situations such as contagion by COVID-19 or other potentially communicable diseases, since this model allows students to take classes virtually, and simultaneously in person, following contingency measures
