El reglamento escolar: ¿herramienta para conseguir el orden disciplinario en las escuelas?

El Manual de Convivencia debe ser una herramienta que garantice en todo momento el derecho a la educación y la sana convivencia, si se concibe la educación como un asunto de derechos humanos. De ahí que es importante subrayar que más allá de la aplicación de un debido proceso, frente a una falta, lo importante es poder intervenir y modificar comportamientos a través de procesos educativos que le permitan a los sujetos actuar en derecho y asumir los mandatos constitucionales, promoviendo así la viabilidad personal y social

Carbon Footprint of Dwelling Construction in Romania and Spain. A Comparative Analysis with the OERCO2 Tool

CO2 emissions due to the construction sector represent 40% of the total, either directly by the use of the building or indirectly by the emissions incorporated in construction materials and products. It is important to achieve a change in this sector to introduce these concepts in a simple way. There are various tools for evaluating emissions in construction projects. In the present work, the OERCO2 tool is used. This work studies housing projects in two European countries belonging to significantly different regions, Spain (Andalusia) and Romania (Bucharest and Transylvania). Although concrete or masonry structures are mainly used in Romania, due to an increased demand for residential buildings in recent years, a new niche has appeared in the construction sector: metallic and mixed (metal–concrete) structures for multi-storied buildings. For these reasons, a comparison between concrete and metallic buildings can be made in order to highlight their environmental impact. Twenty-four projects are selected from Romanian projects with metallic structures, and Spanish projects with concrete structures. They are also differentiated according to the type of foundation used. As expected, buildings with a metallic structure have more economic and environmental impact than reinforced concrete. The materials with greater impact are metal, concrete, cement, and ceramic products. The potential of the tool for the evaluation of various construction solutions, materials, and project phases is demonstrated

La construcción de edificios residenciales en España en el período 2007-2010 y su impacto según el indicador Huella Ecológica

Se identifican en informes estadísticos oficiales, las características principales de las viviendas construidas en España durante el período 2007 a 2010, mostrando las 10 tipologías de edificios residenciales y soluciones constructivas representativas. Se evalúa el impacto generado por dichas tipologías empleando el indicador huella ecológica (HE), obteniendo, entre otros resultados, que las viviendas unifamiliares tienen un 45 % de huella superior a las plurifamiliares y que la huella que genera la mano de obra es un 35 % de la total. También se realiza el análisis de huella por fases de obra y sistemas constructivos, que determina que los elementos de mayor impacto son, estructura, albañilería, revestimientos y cimentaciones, por ese orden. Se finaliza con el cálculo total de HE durante el período objetivo y por persona de las viviendas evaluadas

The method is developed in 4 different phases, starting with the programming of the experience; elaboration of the teaching material for its development, based on the autonomous work of the students; to the classroom work and resolution of doubts that take place in the classroom. The implementation of this teachinglearning experience has been globally successful

Twitter use in the Latin American universities

Las redes sociales ofrecen fórmulas eficaces a la institución de educación superior tanto para desarrollar actividades formativas innovadoras apoyadas en la participación e interacción entre docentes y estudiantes, como para mejorar su identidad corporativa, difundir y transmitir información institucional. La presente investigación analiza el uso de Twitter que hacen las 20 primeras universidades iberoamericanas (Ranking Shangai, 2012), mediante la identificación de sus listas, seguidores y la generación de tweets y retweets. Los resultados más significativos ponen de manifiesto por un lado, que algunos docentes la usan como herramienta catalizadora del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje a partir de los hashtags, y por otro, que a nivel institucional, las universidades lo hacen para dinamizar la participación e interacción con la comunidad educativa mediante los Tweets. El promedio de seguidores de las universidades estudiadas en Twitter es de 4.772 usuarios, y de 114 tweets usuarios (2011). La Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México es la que posee más (35.679). Casi todas ven la importancia del uso de Twitter, sin embargo se infrautiliza como canal de comunicación directa y efectiva. Los docentes deben actualizarse para manejar las TIC y las redes sociales, descubrir su aplicabilidad educativa y rentabilizar el tiempo de interacción con los estudiantes. Además, la comunicación entre las universidades y la comunidad educativa podría verse optimizada con Twitter si para el envío de mensajes efectivos aprovecharan sus bases de datos como canal de difusión viral.Social networks offer effective ways to higher education centers to develop innovative training activities supported by the participation and interaction between teachers and students and in the same way to improve their corporate identity, broadcasting and transmiting corporate information. This research analyzes the usage of top 20 Latin American Universities (Sanghai Ranking, 2012) that participate in Twitter by identifying their lists, fans and tweets and retweets. The most significant results show that some teachers use it as a tool that fosters the teaching and learning process via the hashtags, and furthermore, that at the institutional level, universities boost the participation and interaction with the educational community through tweets. The average fans level of the studied universities is 4,772 Twitter users considering tweets of 114 users (2011). The National Autonomous University of Mexico is the one with most (35,679) followers. Almost al of them see the importance of using Twitter, however Twitter is underused as a channel of direct and effective communication. Teachers should be trained to use ICT and social network to discover their educational applicability and to take advantage of interaction time with students. Furthermore, communication between universities and their educational communities could be optimized using Twitter to send effective messages to exploit their databases as a viral distribution channel

Uprolides N, O and P from the Panamanian Octocoral Eunicea succinea.

Three new diterpenes, uprolide N (1), uprolide O (2), uprolide P (3) and a known one, dolabellane (4), were isolated from the CH₂Cl₂-MeOH extract of the gorgonian octocoral Eunicea succinea, collected from Bocas del Toro, on the Caribbean coast of Panama. Their structures were determined using spectroscopic analyses, including 1D and 2D NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) together with molecular modeling studies. Compounds 1-3 displayed anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting production of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and Interleukin (IL)-6 induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in murine macrophages

Inteligencia emocional y gerencia tóxica en los jefes de departamentos académicos. Universidad de Oriente, núcleo de Sucre, Cumaná | Emotional intelligence and toxic management in the heads of academic departments. Universidad de Oriente, Sucre campus, Cumaná

Las organizaciones están sometidas a distintas presiones con el fin de mantenerse en el tiempo, lo que facilita la aparición de un tipo de gerencia agresiva que se denomina Gerencia Tóxica, entendida como una forma de ejercer el poder a través de comportamientos egocéntricos, faltos de empatía, implacabilidad y ambición personal. Las características del comportamiento de quienes ejercen este tipo de gerencia están relacionadas con las habilidades emocionales, fundamentadas en la Inteligencia Emocional, que es la capacidad que tiene el individuo de reconocer y controlar sus propios sentimientos, sostener una actitud empática y manejar las relaciones interpersonales. El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y la gerencia tóxica en los Jefes de Departamentos Académicos y/o Coordinadores de Programas de la Universidad de Oriente, Núcleo de Sucre, Cumaná. La investigación fue de campo a nivel descriptiva-correlacional. El nivel de inteligencia emocional se midió mediante el test diseñado por Goleman, y para la gerencia tóxica se usó el test planteado por Piñuel. Los resultados muestran que el nivel de inteligencia emocional de la muestra estudiada es medio-alto, mientras que el riesgo laboral de su gerencia es moderado. Existe una correlación fuerte y positiva entre las variables objeto de estudio, que indica que el nivel de toxicidad gerencial depende de la capacidad del individuo para manejar las competencias emocionales. Palabras clave: Inteligencia emocional, gerencia tóxica, universidad, gerencia UDO. ABSTRACT Organizations are subjected to different pressures in order to persist over time, facilitating the emergence of an aggressive type of management that is called Toxic Management, understood as a way of exercising power through egocentric behavior, lacking empathy, ruthlessness and personal ambition. The behavioral characteristics of those who hold this type of management are related to emotional skills, based on emotional intelligence, which is the ability of the individual to recognize and control his own feelings, hold an empathic attitude and manage interpersonal relationships. The objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between emotional intelligence and toxic management among the Heads of the Academic Departments and/or Program Coordinators at the Universidad de Oriente, Sucre Campus, Cumaná. The field research was performed at a descriptive-correlational level. The level of emotional intelligence was measured by the test designed by Goleman, and for the toxic management the test proposed by Piñuel was used. The results show that the level of emotional intelligence of the sample studied is medium-high, while the risk of the job management is moderate. There is a strong positive correlation between the variables studied, indicating that the level of toxicity depends on the  ability of the individual to manage emotional competencies. Key words: Emotional Intelligence, management toxic, university, UDO management.

Background The effects of stress on surgical residents and how stress management training can prepare residents to effectively manage stressful situations is a relevant topic. This systematic review aimed to analyze the literature regarding (1) the current stress monitoring tools and their use in surgical environments, (2) the current methods in surgical stress management training, and (3) how stress affects surgical performance. Methods A search strategy was implemented to retrieve relevant articles from Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed. The 787 initially retrieved articles were reviewed for further evaluation according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria (Prospero registration number CRD42021252682). Results Sixty-one articles were included in the review. The stress monitoring methods found in the articles showed heart rate analysis as the most used monitoring tool for physiological parameters while the STAI-6 scale was preferred for psychological parameters. The stress management methods found in the articles were mental-, simulation- and feedback-based training, with the mental-based training showing clear positive effects on participants. The studies analyzing the effects of stress on surgical performance showed both negative and positive effects on technical and non-technical performance. Conclusions The impact of stress responses presents an important factor in surgical environments, affecting residents’ training and performance. This study identified the main methods used for monitoring stress parameters in surgical educational environments. The applied surgical stress management training methods were diverse and demonstrated positive effects on surgeons’ stress levels and performance. There were negative and positive effects of stress on surgical performance, although a collective pattern on their effects was not clear.publishedVersio
