Collaborative Learning Based on Harry Potter for Learning Geometric Figures in the Subject of Mathematics
Nowadays, education requires changes in the teaching and learning processes, through
the implementation of innovative and motivating pedagogical actions, owing to the existing needs
in society. Education, owing to the current needs of society, requires changes in the teaching and
learning processes through the implementation of innovative and motivating pedagogical actions.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the collaborative method, based
on the Harry Potter theme, with respect to the traditional method in the first year of Obligatory
Secondary Education for the learning of geometric figures in the subject of mathematics. For this
purpose, a quasi-experimental, quantitative, descriptive, and correlational study has been designed,
using a standardized questionnaire as a technique to collect information. The sample is composed of
236 students from the first year of Obligatory Secondary Education distributed in eight groups (four
control and four experimental) from a public high school in the city of Cádiz (Spain). The tests carried
out show that collaborative learning generates improvements in the attitudes and mathematical
dimensions. Therefore, the collaborative method, developed by means of the Harry Potter theme
for students in the first year of Compulsory Secondary Education in the subject of mathematics,
causes a better attitude of the student towards the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, it
facilitates the acquisition of mathematical contents related to geometry, which does not directly affect
the students’ grades because, although those of the experimental group are better than those obtained
by the control group, the differences between the two are minimal
El Aula Invertida en contextos multiculturales. Estudio de casos/Flipped classroom in multicultural contexts. Case study
La investigación que se presenta a continuación trata de describir la influencia del método flipped classroom y el uso de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje, teniendo presente las variables género y religión que profesan los estudiantes. El método aplicado es de tipo descriptivo y correlacional, mediante análisis cuantitativa. La población de estudio es el alumnado de 1º de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria en la materia de matemáticas del Instituto de Educación Secundaria Abyla, Ceuta, España, formada por 52 sujetos. El instrumento utilizado ha sido un cuestionario ad hoc. Podemos concluir que no existen diferencias significativas en las valoraciones dadas por los estudiantes a nivel de género y religión que profesan
Clonal chromosomal mosaicism and loss of chromosome Y in elderly men increase vulnerability for SARS-CoV-2
The pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) had an estimated overall case fatality ratio of 1.38% (pre-vaccination), being 53% higher in males and increasing exponentially with age. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, we found 133 cases (1.42%) with detectable clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations (mCA) and 226 males (5.08%) with acquired loss of chromosome Y (LOY). Individuals with clonal mosaic events (mCA and/or LOY) showed a 54% increase in the risk of COVID-19 lethality. LOY is associated with transcriptomic biomarkers of immune dysfunction, pro-coagulation activity and cardiovascular risk. Interferon-induced genes involved in the initial immune response to SARS-CoV-2 are also down-regulated in LOY. Thus, mCA and LOY underlie at least part of the sex-biased severity and mortality of COVID-19 in aging patients. Given its potential therapeutic and prognostic relevance, evaluation of clonal mosaicism should be implemented as biomarker of COVID-19 severity in elderly people. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, individuals with clonal mosaic events (clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations and/or loss of chromosome Y) showed an increased risk of COVID-19 lethality

El análisis documental de contenido y la normalización terminológica en bibliotecas de Bogotá
[ENGLISH] Presents the overall results of an investigation conducted by teachers linked to the Department of
Information Science from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, designed to identify the methodology
and practice of documentary analysis of content in some units of information from the city of Bogotá
D. C., as well as terminology standardization in such libraries. The libraries, in its administrative
organization, have with a section devoted to the organization of documents, a process that involves
aspects of bibliographic description and analysis of the content. This section is known in the libraries
as the «technical processes». This research focuses on this part of the library and specifically in the
assessment of a process called content analysis of documents. Additionally, it is one of the few
studies that have been made in Bogotá about documentary on the organization, activity, which
increasingly takes more significance due to given its importance for the retrieval of information in
databases and on the Web
