Inteligencia cinestésica corporal en el aprendizaje significativo de los alumnos de la I.E. Nº 20820 “Nuestra Señora de Fátima”-Huacho, durante el año escolar 2020
La inteligencia cinestésica tiene dos características observables en los sujetos. El primero es el control de movimiento, con mayor desarrollo en equilibrio, velocidad, coordinación y flexibilidad. El segundo es manejar objetos con destreza, por ejemplo, los tenistas utilizan raquetas con gran precisión, coordinación, velocidad y equilibrio al golpear la pelota. Por otro lado, el aprendizaje involucra diferentes etapas de un proceso complejo,
cada modelo y teoría existente aprende desde una perspectiva diferente. Al considerar todo el proceso de aprendizaje, encontrará que estas teorías y modelos aparentemente contradictorios no son tan contradictorios, ni siquiera complementarios. El objetivo de este estudio es, determinar la influencia que ejerce la inteligencia cinestésica corporal en el aprendizaje significativo de la I.E. Nº 20820 “Nuestra Señora de Fátima”-Huacho, durante el año escolar 2020. Para este fin la pregunta de investigación es la siguiente: ¿De qué manera influye la inteligencia cinestésica corporal en el aprendizaje significativo de los alumnos de la I.E. Nº 20820 “Nuestra Señora de Fátima”-Huacho, durante el año escolar 2020? La pregunta de investigación se responde a través de las encuestas de la inteligencia cinestésica corporal en el aprendizaje significativo, la misma que fue aplicada por el equipo de apoyo de la investigadora; para este caso la encuesta, consta de 20 ítems en una tabla de doble entrada con 4 alternativas a evaluar en los alumnos del tercer grado. Por tener una población pequeña se aplicó su muestra en su totalidad lo mismo que son 100, se analizaron las siguientes dimensiones; expresión corporal y psicomotricidad de la variable inteligencia cinestésica corporal y las dimensiones; aprendizaje conceptual, aprendizaje procedimental y aprendizaje actitudinal, de la variable aprendizaje significativo. Con esto en mente, se aconseja a los docentes que no dejen de aprender, y siempre busquen formas de atraer a los estudiantes con mejores y mejores estrategias de enseñanza para que los estudiantes puedan obtener los mejores resultados de aprendizaje

Mifepristone increases mRNA translation rate, triggers the unfolded protein response, increases autophagic flux, and kills ovarian cancer cells in combination with proteasome or lysosome inhibitors
The synthetic steroid mifepristone blocks the growth of ovarian cancer cells, yet the mechanism driving such effect is not entirely understood. Unbiased genomic and proteomic screenings using ovarian cancer cell lines of different genetic backgrounds and sensitivities to platinum led to the identification of two key genes upregulated by mifepristone and involved in the unfolded protein response (UPR): the master chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), glucose regulated protein (GRP) of 78 kDa, and the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous transcription factor (CHOP). GRP78 and CHOP were upregulated by mifepristone in ovarian cancer cells regardless of p53 status and platinum sensitivity. Further studies revealed that the three UPR-associated pathways, PERK, IRE1α, and ATF6, were activated by mifepristone. Also, the synthetic steroid acutely increased mRNA translation rate, which, if prevented, abrogated the splicing of XBP1 mRNA, a non-translatable readout of IRE1α activation. Moreover, mifepristone increased LC3-II levels due to increased autophagic flux. When the autophagic–lysosomal pathway was inhibited with chloroquine, mifepristone was lethal to the cells. Lastly, doses of proteasome inhibitors that are inadequate to block the activity of the proteasomes, caused cell death when combined with mifepristone; this phenotype was accompanied by accumulation of poly-ubiquitinated proteins denoting proteasome inhibition. The stimulation by mifepristone of ER stress and autophagic flux offers a therapeutic opportunity for utilizing this compound to sensitize ovarian cancer cells to proteasome or lysosome inhibitors.Fil: Zhang, Lei.

Proceedings of the 3rd Biennial Conference of the Society for Implementation Research Collaboration (SIRC) 2015: advancing efficient methodologies through community partnerships and team science
It is well documented that the majority of adults, children and families in need of evidence-based behavioral health interventionsi do not receive them [1, 2] and that few robust empirically supported methods for implementing evidence-based practices (EBPs) exist. The Society for Implementation Research Collaboration (SIRC) represents a burgeoning effort to advance the innovation and rigor of implementation research and is uniquely focused on bringing together researchers and stakeholders committed to evaluating the implementation of complex evidence-based behavioral health interventions. Through its diverse activities and membership, SIRC aims to foster the promise of implementation research to better serve the behavioral health needs of the population by identifying rigorous, relevant, and efficient strategies that successfully transfer scientific evidence to clinical knowledge for use in real world settings [3]. SIRC began as a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-funded conference series in 2010 (previously titled the “Seattle Implementation Research Conference”; $150,000 USD for 3 conferences in 2011, 2013, and 2015) with the recognition that there were multiple researchers and stakeholdersi working in parallel on innovative implementation science projects in behavioral health, but that formal channels for communicating and collaborating with one another were relatively unavailable. There was a significant need for a forum within which implementation researchers and stakeholders could learn from one another, refine approaches to science and practice, and develop an implementation research agenda using common measures, methods, and research principles to improve both the frequency and quality with which behavioral health treatment implementation is evaluated. SIRC’s membership growth is a testament to this identified need with more than 1000 members from 2011 to the present.ii SIRC’s primary objectives are to: (1) foster communication and collaboration across diverse groups, including implementation researchers, intermediariesi, as well as community stakeholders (SIRC uses the term “EBP champions” for these groups) – and to do so across multiple career levels (e.g., students, early career faculty, established investigators); and (2) enhance and disseminate rigorous measures and methodologies for implementing EBPs and evaluating EBP implementation efforts. These objectives are well aligned with Glasgow and colleagues’ [4] five core tenets deemed critical for advancing implementation science: collaboration, efficiency and speed, rigor and relevance, improved capacity, and cumulative knowledge. SIRC advances these objectives and tenets through in-person conferences, which bring together multidisciplinary implementation researchers and those implementing evidence-based behavioral health interventions in the community to share their work and create professional connections and collaborations
Floating Solar: An Emerging Opportunity at the Energy-Water Nexus
Texas is experiencing tremendous growth, which puts pressure on resources including water and electricity supplies. Texas leads the nation in renewable energy production and is experiencing tremendous growth in the solar energy sector, with the Solar Energy Industries Association reporting that Texas is on track to become the fastest growing utility-scale solar market in the United States within the next five years. In this market, a new photovoltaic (PV) technology, floating solar, is gaining attention. Floating solar PV systems use the same types of PV panels as land-based systems, but the panels are either floating in the water (tethered to the land or substrate) or are suspended over a water body. Floating solar panels typically produce more energy than similarly-sized terrestrial systems (because of the cooling effect and reflectivity of the water). The shading provided by the solar panels can also significantly reduce evaporation and can improve water quality by inhibiting the growth of some types of algae and inhibiting bromide converting to bromate. In a climate where much of the state is arid or semi-arid and the entire state is subject to drought, a technology such as floating solar can be part of the solution. Texas reservoirs, water and wastewater treatment facilities, power plant cooling ponds, and irrigation ponds all have the opportunity to realize multiple benefits from floating solar that could not be achieved with a standard ground-mounted PV installation.

How Powerful is Knowledge?: A Mixed-Methods Approach to Evaluating Mental Health Literacy in Caregivers
Despite a wealth of effective psychotherapies for youth mental health disorders, a significant proportion of affected youth do not receive treatment (Merikengas et al., 2011). Although a variety of factors may contribute to this treatment gap, one proposed hypothesis is a lack of caregiver mental health literacy. Mental health literacy (MHL) is defined as the “knowledge and attitudes about mental disorders that aid their recognition and treatment” (Jorm, 2000). Mental health literacy is a relatively new construct, and therefore, there are few psychometrically validated measurement tools available. Furthermore, no validated measures have been developed specifically to assess knowledge about youth mental health problems, and few studies have focused on measurement of caregiver MHL in Latinx samples. Additionally, although some emerging literature focuses on interventions to improve mental health literacy for specific populations, there are no interventions to date that specifically meet the needs of caregivers in Latinx communities, where negative attitudes about mental health problems and treatment is high but service utilization is low (Alegr�a, Vallas, & Pumariega, 2010; Turner et al., 2015). Using a mixed-methods approach, the goals of this dissertation were to: 1) develop an objective measure of MHL that specifically assesses youth mental health problems; 2) validate this measure in a caregiver sample, with a particular focus on Latinx caregivers; 3) examine the relationship between MHL and related constructs, including stigma toward having a child with mental illness and attitudes about seeking treatment for a child with mental health problems in this sample; and 4) explore preferences for and acceptability of interventions to improve caregiver MHL in Latinx communities. Study 1 described the initial development and validation for a newly developed mental health literacy test (MHLT v1). The MHLT v1 consisted of 40 statements that were presented in a True/False/Unsure format and assessed knowledge specifically about youth mental health problems. This measure was piloted in an undergraduate sample (N=354) and results demonstrated that the MHLT v1 had acceptable internal consistency and strong construct validity. Study 2 built upon these findings and discussed the refinement of the MHLT and psychometric validation of this measure in a caregiver sample. One-hundred and sixty-nine caregivers completed the revised MHLT (v2), along with two measures of attitudes about having a child with mental illness and seeking professional help for child’s mental health needs. Demographic variables of interest (e.g., race/ethnicity, education, income), history of mental health diagnoses and service use, and most helpful and trusted information sources, were also collected. Results demonstrated that the MHLT v2 demonstrated good internal consistency. Across demographic variables, non-Latinx White participants outperformed Latinx participants, and participants with graduate education scored higher than participants with a bachelor’s degrees or less. Scores on the MHLT were negatively correlated with stigma about having a child with mental illness, but not significantly correlated with stigma about help-seeking. In Study 3, ten Latinx caregivers participated in a one-time, individual interview and provided feedback about the MHLT content and test-taking experience. Participants reported that the MHLT was manageable and provided suggestions to refine item content. Additionally, interviews explored caregivers’ perceptions about their own knowledge of children’s mental health problems, stigma, and attitudes about help-seeking. Participants in this sample reported low levels of stigma and high openness to seeking professional help for their children’s mental health needs. Finally, participants discussed the perceived helpfulness and feasibility of interventions to improve caregiver mental health literacy, and provided input to improve the acceptability and effectiveness of knowledge interventions for Latinx caregivers in their community. All participants reported that increasing caregiver MHL was important and/or would be helpful or useful. However, participants were mixed about how other community members would respond to programs. Suggestions to increase community engagement and acceptability included delivery by a mental health professional, offering programs in Spanish and English, and reducing use of stigmatizing language (e.g., mental illness) in program content and advertisements
Dinámicas escolares asociadas a la construcción de un currículo intercultural para la paz y la justicia territorial en el Caribe colombiano. 2018-2019
This article has to do with a research carried out between 2018 and 2019 in a school of a rural setting in the Caribbean, which suffered the attacks of the Colombian fratricidal conflict. This region is characterized by its agricultural vocation of banana crops for export. In this context, appears the primary school Thelma Rosa de Arévalo as a forum in which social phenomena are manifested, which the school institution begins to lead through transformation processes, using the action research methodology using the cooperative action research(-IAC) methodology. To do this, it makes a strategic alliance with the Educational Quality in a Plural World-CEMPLU group, attached to the Universidad del Magdalena.
The epistemological process faithfully examined the school dynamics of a peasant community, associated with the construction of an intercultural curriculum that promotes territorial peace and justice. To do this, it was necessary to qualify the co-researcher teachers in the episteme "interculturality" as the central axis of the study. Their experiences and knowledge were taken into account to value their teaching expertise and understanding their sufferings as victims. In the latter aspect, the accumulated pain did not allow, in the first turn of the methodological spiral, the proposed teleological transformation will be achieved. The proposed teleological transformation will be achieved, suggesting to the writing of this text, to make a second turn of the IAC loop.
Among the results it was found that the Institutional Educational Project-PEI is a technical document but it does not reflect the local reality avoiding the growth of an intercultural curriculum, since the latter requires the local educational communities and its members they should know "themselves". Without this elemental knowledge the imprint that marks the identity of people and their communities cannot be understood.Cet article fait référence à une enquête menée entre 2018 et 2019 [1] dans une école située en milieu rural dans les Caraïbes, qui a subi de plein fouet le conflit fratricide colombien. Caractérisé par sa vocation agricole, consistant en la culture de la banane pour l'exportation. Dans ce contexte, l'école Thelma Rosa de Arévalo émerge, comme un forum dans lequel se manifestent des phénomènes sociaux, que l'institution scolaire commence à mener à travers des processus de transformation, en utilisant la méthodologie Cooperative Action Research-IAC. Pour ce faire, il conclut une alliance stratégique avec le groupe Qualité éducative dans un monde pluriel - CEMPLU, rattaché à l'Universidad del Magdalena.
Le processus épistémologique a fidèlement examiné la dynamique scolaire d'une communauté paysanne, associée à la construction d'un programme interculturel qui promeut la paix et la justice territoriales. Pour cela, il a fallu qualifier les cochercheurs enseignants de l'épistémé "interculturalité" comme axe central de l'étude. Parmi eux, les connaissances empiriques accumulées au cours de leur vie n'ont pas été gaspillées, valorisant leur expertise pédagogique et comprenant leurs souffrances en tant que victimes. Dans ce dernier aspect, la douleur accumulée n'a pas permis que, dans un premier tour de la spirale méthodologique, la transformation téléologique proposée soit réalisée, suggérant à l'écriture de ce texte, d'effectuer un deuxième tour de la boucle IAC.
Parmi les résultats, il a été constaté que le Projet éducatif institutionnel-Î.-P.-É. est un document technique, qui ne reflète pas la réalité locale, empêchant la croissance d'un programme d'études interculturel, car ce dernier nécessite les communautés éducatives locales et leurs membres, le se "connaissent". Sans cette connaissance élémentaire, l'empreinte qui marque l'identité des personnes et de leurs communautés ne peut être conçue.
[1] Étude financée par le bureau du vice-président à la recherche de l'Universidad del Magdalena dans le cadre de son programme FONCIENCIAS. (Projet: Curriculum interculturel pour la paix et la justice territoriale: une étude sociale critique dans une communauté afro-colombienne), conformément à la loi d'initiation et à la résolution pour la nomination des chercheurs n ° 342 de 2018.O presente artigo está vinculado a uma pesquisa realizada entre os anos 2018-2019 em uma escola localizada no território rural do Caribe, que sofreu as consequências do conflito fratricida colombiano; caracterizado por sua vocação agrícola, consistente no cultivo de banana para exportação. É neste contexto em que emerge a escola Thelma Rosa de Arévalo, como um fórum no qual se manifestam fenômenos sociais, que a instituição escolar começa a exercer liderança, mediante processos de transformação, aplicando a metodologia de Pesquisa Ação Cooperativa-IAC. Para isso, realizou uma aliança estratégica com o grupo Qualidade Educativa num mundo Plural-CEMPLU, adscrito à Universidade de Magdalena. O processo epistemológico tratou de examinar, de maneira fidedigna, as dinâmicas escolares de uma comunidade campesina, associadas à construção de um currículo intercultural que promova a paz e a justiça territorial. Para isso, foi necessário qualificar os professores copesquisadores na episteme da “Interculturalidade” como eixo central do estudo. Referente a eles, não se desprezou os saberes empíricos acumulados no transcurso de suas vidas, valorizando-se suas expertises docentes e compreendendo seus sofrimentos como vítimas. Neste último aspecto, a dor acumulada não permitiu que, num primeiro giro da espiral metodológica, a transformação teleológica proposta será alcançada, sugerindo-se a produção deste texto, realizando um segundo giro do circuito da IAC. Entre os resultados temos que o Projeto Educacional Institucional-PEI é um documento técnico que não reflete a realidade local, impedindo o desenvolvimento de um currículo intercultural, posto que este último exige das comunidades educativas locais e de seus membros o conhecer-se “a si mesmos”. Sem este conhecimento elementar, não se concebe as características que marcam a identidade das pessoas e de suas comunidades.E
Objetivo: El artículo esboza una comprensión en torno a la elaboración de un currículo intercultural para comunidades educativas donde sus miembros han sido victimas del conflicto armado colombiano. Método: Generando un diálogo de saberes y conocimientos entre investigadores y participantes, en un ejercicio de formación recíproca que llevó a reivindicar la tradición oral, que ha sido subalternizada por los discursos escolares del orden transnacional. Estrategias:El horizonte teleológico se trazó en la concepción de hacer una intervención cooperativa, en la cual participó una universidad y una escuela pública rural con el fin de empoderar categorías como interculturalidad, paz y justicia territorial en sus miembros. Esta sinergia incentivó a la comunidad para dar un salto adelante en su nivel de conciencia de práctica docente frente al “otro”. Originalidad: Esta comunicación académica sustenta la elaboración de nuevo conocimiento a partir de las voces de los participantes in situ. Conclusión: La rutina investigativa de injerencia se asume como una herramienta crítica para el cambio social, especialmente, cuando dentro de sus marcos generales los maestros aprenden a innovar y mejorar las realidades propias de una cultura o comunidad, en la expectativa de reconstruir experiencias de aprendizaje que pueden ser propuestas a partir del diseño, implementación y evaluación de acciones pedagógicas para la diversidad
