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

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
