La transformación de un problema, a partir del potencial de la calculadora TI-92
En el presente artÃculo se describe la evolución de una actividad cuya transformación está determinada por el potencial operativo y representacional de la calculadora y por la necesidad de diseñar actividades de aula que permitan transformar las acciones de los estudiantes en su hacer matemáticas, posibilitando la exploración, el planteamiento y verificación de conjeturas, el trabajo con diferentes representaciones, la generalización y la sistematización. De esta manera se ilustrará el uso de la calculadora empleándola inicialmente como amplificadora en el tratamiento de algunos conceptos matemáticos y posteriormente como elemento reorganizador del desarrollo de estos
Simulación en Cabri e integración de sistemas de representación
Se presenta un archivo construido en Cabri, el cual debe ser grabado en las calculadoras. En dicho archivo está construida la simulación del movimiento de tres aviones que viajan paralelamente en lÃnea recta y en el mismo sentido. Se pretende que, a través de la observación, la exploración y la sistematización de los resultados, se modelen las situaciones de cambio presentes en la simulación y exprese el modelo en palabras y simbólicamente, representándolo en forma tabular, gráfica y mediante expresiones algebraicas. Finalmente se hará la construcción de la simulación
Measurement of disparities between indicators associated with the welfare in Least Developed Countries (LDCs) of Asia
Medir los factores que inciden en el bienestar social de los paÃses es una
tarea compleja, especialmente cuando se trata de paÃses pocos desarrollados.
A pesar de todo, se han producido avances relevantes, aunque sigue siendo
un camino por el que hay que seguir buscando procedimientos que lo
enriquezcan.
En este artÃculo, se propone una medición de las disparidades entre
indicadores de bienestar social aplicados a un grupo de paÃses muy
afectados por la pobreza, los paÃses menos adelantados (PMA), que según
la terminologÃa de la Conferencia de Naciones Unidas para el Comercio y el
Desarrollo (UNCTAD) son los más pobres entre los pobres. En nuestro análisis
nos referiremos a los del continente asiático.
La novedad de este trabajo es que el Ãndice propuesto se ha construido
atendiendo a un número de variables más amplia que los Ãndices de bienestar
más utilizados y a los criterios definidos en los Objetivos de desarrollo de la
Declaración del Milenio, entre los que existe un consenso general que son los
que determinan los niveles de subdesarrollo de los paÃses.
Como técnica aplicada a los datos proporcionados por Naciones Unidas
y recogidos en el Informe Anual de los PMA, se ha empleado el método de
distancia P2 para el año 2007, el último para el que disponÃamos de datos
definitivos. Este Ãndice integra variables socioeconómicas, que permiten una
ordenación territorial de los PMA de Asia, en función de esos indicadores
parciales.___________________________________________Measuring factors that affect countries’ social welfare is a complex task,
especially in the case of the Least Developed Countries. Despite this difficulty,
important advances have been made, though many more remain to be made
in the search for procedures that will enrich these analyses.
In this article we present a new proposal for the measurement of disparities
between indicators of social welfare, applied to a group of countries especially
affected by poverty: the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) which in the
terminology of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development
(UNCTAD) are the poorest of the poor. In our analysis we will refer to the Asian
continent.
Our index is novel in that it has been constructed taking into account a
larger number of variables than the welfare indices most usually used, and the
criteria defined in the Goals of the Millennium Declaration, which are generally
considered to determine countries’ levels of underdevelopment .
As technique applied to the data, provided by the UN and listed in the
Annual Report of the LDCs for 2007, the latest year for which definitive data
were available, we have used the P2 distance method. This index integrates
socio-economic variables that permit a ranking of the LDCs of Asia, in terms of
those partial indicators
Interest and willingness to pay for investigative reporting : a solution for the crisis of journalism?
The Internet has stimulated a cross-shift in the business model across the media sector. Traditional funding sources have been reduced by the voracious pulse for free access and non-professional actors have swarmed over to compete with traditional channels of information. This paper attempts to analyze willingness-to-pay for investigative journalism contents from a general audience’s point of view, in order to find consumption patterns that could orientate professionals in this crisis. To achieve such an aim, a survey was conducted to examine the paying habits of Madrid’s population using a multistage technique, which was designed following the indexes provided by the Municipal Register of the town. The results, based on three payment channels –micro-payment, donation and annual subscription–and three distribution channels –corporate media, non-corporate media and freelance journalists–confirm the interest of the audience for investigative reporting findings but also their unwillingness to pay for its scoops or exposés

people with mobility problems and is aimed to elderly people who have trouble for getting up from
bed. This design is an alternative to the different market options where the device is as less
intrusive as possible in the patient's environment, at the same time that the installation is as simple
as possible.
The project is designed for the standard measurements of an adult woman and for the
development of this project has been used different software such as Solidworks, which is used for
the design and calculation of the device's stresses
Generation of raptor diversity in Europe: Linking speciation with climate changes and the ability to migrate
Europe holds a rich community of diurnal birds of prey, and the highest proportion of transcontinental migratory raptorial species of any landmass. This study will test the hypotheses that the high diversification of the raptor assemblage in Europe is a recent event, that closely related species sharing the same trophic niches can only coexist in sympatry during the breeding period, when food availability is higher, and finally that migration is a function of size, with the smaller species in every trophic group moving further. A consensus molecular phylogeny for the 38 regular breeding species of raptors in Europe was obtained from BirdTree (www.birdtree.org). For the same species, a trophic niche cluster dendrogram was constructed. Size and migratory strategy were introduced in the resulting phylogeny, where trophic groups were also identified. Multispecific trophic groups tended to be composed of reciprocal sister species of different sizes, while monospecific groups (n = 3) were composed of highly specialized species. Many speciation events took place recently, during the glacial cycles of the Quaternary, and size divergence among competing species may be due to character displacement. Nowadays, the smaller species in every trophic group migrate to sub-Saharan Africa. This investigation illustrates how the rich assemblage of diurnal birds of prey in Europe, more diverse and more migratory than, for instance, the North American assemblage at equivalent latitudes, has emerged recently due to the multiplication of look-alike species with similar trophic ecologies, possibly in climate refugia during cold period
La financiacion publico-privada (PPP-PPI) como alternativa a la rehabilitacion del patrimonio del estado
En la actualidad, la administración española tiene pocos recursos económicos disponibles para la rehabilitación del patrimonio, para lo cual necesitarÃan una financiación externa, realizada por fondos privados. La Dirección Integrada de Proyecto (“Project Management“) aplicada al proceso constructivo es una Técnica Metodológica que ayuda a organizar, controlar y gestionar los recursos de los promotores dentro del proceso edificatorio. Cuando los recursos están limitados (que normalmente es la mayorÃa de las situaciones) gestionarlos de una manera eficiente se convierte en algo muy importante. La financiación público-privada es una forma de no consolidar la deuda dentro del balance de la Administración Pública, según los criterios del SEC-95 EUROSTAT que, transfiriendo dos riesgos de los tres citados a continuación al sector privado puede ser que no se consolide la deuda dentro del balance de la Administración.
Los riesgos fundamentales son:
- Riesgo de construcción
- Riesgo de disponibilidad
- Riesgo de demand
Health and safety in the construction : subject pending to be included in the curriculum of architecture in Spain
The art of construction is a risky activity that directly affects the life and physical integrity of persons. Since the approval of Law 31/1995, of November 8, Prevention of Occupational Risks was the first legislation that established the current basis in all sectors and then transposed into Spanish law Directive 92/57/CEE called Royal Decree 1627/1997 of October 24, on minimum safety and health dispositions in construction works, measures have been proposed to develop a mixed body of scientific literature composed of researchers and professionals in the field of occupational safety and health, but even today there is still no clear and firm proposal, showing a lack of awareness in the occupational risk prevention and, therefore, a consolidation of the culture of prevention in society. Therefore, the technicians, who make up the building process, can incur in very high responsibilities, such as: Author of the project, Coordinator of Safety and Health during the preparation of the project and during the execution of works, Site Management: Site Manager. This involves the immediate creation of a general training in prevention for all architects starting when still studying, as well as specific training, appropriate and complementary to all the architects that will be devoted to the specialty of occupational safety and health in construction works. That is, first, we must make the responsible bodies aware of the urgent need to integrate risk prevention in the curricula of architecture and later in the continuing education of the profession. It is necessary that our teaching must conform to the laws on safety and health, due to the fact that the law recognizes our academic degrees and professional qualifications to perform functions in that are
