The pedagogical importance of evacuation drills in schools as a means of increasing the preventive culture in Spain

[ENG] Education centres in general represent one of the places in which safety becomes something totally essential, due to the special vulnerability of children. The normal day-to-day practice of a school, supposes a series of risks and therefore it is important for the Educational Community to work actively to ensure that the school environment is as safe as possible. Of all the possible risks, fire is perhaps one of the most feared by society, and it is also that which is most likely to occur. The Educational Community in general, should be aware that the spreading of a correct preventive culture, has as its starting point the “Educational Centre” (Lewis, 2009), and it is of vital importance that this prevention culture, reaches all the pupils and teachers in order to be able to increase the level of prevention in schools and to achieve important progress in this matter at a social level. The schools must be prepared to react correctly when faced with any emergency situation that may arise and thus, if it is important to carry out annual evacuation drills, it is even more determinant that the pupils receive adequate prevention training

El Quartier de la Création en l’Île de Nantes ¿Antítesis del modelo Guggenheim Bilbao?

Este artículo analiza el distrito creativo en la Isla de Nantes, donde se pueden encontrar todos los componentes clásicos de un barrio artístico, salvo un gran equipamiento museístico. Se suele considerar por ello como una antítesis del modelo seguido en Bilbao, aunque hay muchas interinfluencias, y quizá más parecidos que diferencias

Procesos artísticos participativos y colaborativos en los distritos culturales de Burdeos y Nantes

This paper analyses the burgeoning impulse, in the main cultural districts of Bordeaux and Nantes, of participative and collaborative art practices. Such adjectives are not synonymous but, true enough, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate these two categories of relational art; moreover, co-working spaces could literally be considered another kind of collaboration process. All in all, beyond terminology matters, the aim of this essay is to point out the flourishing of combined official and community-based initiatives. A model of arts-led urban revitalisation seeking greater involvement of the local ecosystem shaping a “cultural district”, as alternative to the paradigm of the singular institutional trigger worldly identified with the Guggenheim-Bilbao. Nowadays there are many counter-examples in Bilbao and in French cities on the Bay of Biscay. Este artículo analiza el prolífico impulso en los principales distritos culturales de Burdeos y Nantes del arte participativo y colaborativo. Tales adjetivos no son sinónimos, pero es cierto que a veces es difícil diferenciar estas dos categorías de arte relacional; por otro lado, los espacios de co-working podrían ser designados, al pie de la letra, como otro tipo de proceso de co-laboración. Con todo, más allá de la terminología, lo que pretende esta reflexión es constatar el florecimiento de iniciativas oficiales y de base comunitaria combinadas. Un modelo de revitalización urbana a través de las artes con mayor involucración del ecosistema local formando un “distrito cultural”, como alternativa frente al paradigma del singular detonante institucional mundialmente identificado con el Guggenheim-Bilbao. Hoy día no faltan los contraejemplos bilbaínos y en ciudades francesas del golfo de Vizcaya

Dual Vocational Education and Training Policy in Andalusia: The Nexus between the Education System and the Business Sector in the Higher-Level Training Cycle of Early Childhood Education

Dual vocational education and training (dual VET) is a recent policy aimed at establishing strong connections between the education system and the business sector. It serves to ensure the continuity of training, reduce early school leaving, and actively involve the business sector in the training and qualification of students, known as apprentices. Consequently, this approach has a favourable impact on their successful integration into the labour market upon completion of the dual training program. In this study, we investigate the implementation of dual VET in the autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain, focusing on the higher-level training cycle of early childhood education, which falls under the professional family of sociocultural and community services. Through a thorough analysis of interview accounts involving various stakeholders, we shed light on the outcomes of this policy’s implementation. The findings suggest that this emerging policy may have a positive impact on the employability of young individuals by enabling in-company training, which provides them an opportunity to showcase their vocational skills and to combine practical experience with theoretical knowledge. Work mentors are identified as essential contributors to the success of in-company training, as they help foster the necessary capabilities to ensure that dual VET is perceived as a comprehensive training experience rather than as just work experienceMinistry of Science and Innovation of the Government of Spain; grant number RTI2018-101660-B-100

Art enticements in cultural waterfronts: their perimuseal span in the Bilbao estuary beyond the Guggenheim

The opening of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in 1997 intensified a discernible presence of monuments, museums, galleries and other establishments in its surroundings by defining a cultural district. In this gentrified neighbourhood, there are still a few artists-run spaces left, while ever more studios of architects and designers are spreading by the riverside, where the domino effect seemingly results in a musealisation of public art as civic heritage and a tourist attraction

Importancia pedagógica de los ejercicios de evacuación en la planificación de la seguridad de los centros educativos públicos

[SPA]La vida diaria en un centro educativo, entraña una serie de riesgos como: incendios, explosiones, inundaciones, terremotos, Fuertes vientos, etc.; por tanto es importante que la Comunidad Educativa, se involucre de forma activa para conseguir un entorno lo más seguro posible. Las situaciones de emergencia pueden aparecer en cualquier momento y por ello, todos los centros educativos deben estar preparados para reaccionar correctamente ante éstas. Llevar a cabo simulacros de evacuación en los centros educativos, es una medida preventiva de gran importancia. En España desde hace años, existe preocupación en las administraciones públicas para sensibilizar a los centros educativos en materia de prevención; aunque actualmente, tanto la formación en prevención del alumnado como la importancia pedagógica de los simulacros de evacuación, sean insuficientes. Este trabajo de investigación trata de demostrar la influencia que tiene la importancia pedagógica de los simulacros de evacuación, sobre la eficacia general de estos ejercicios. [ENG]Daily life in a school involves a series of risks such as: fires, explosions, floods, earthquakes, strong winds, etc.; therefore it is important that the Educational Community is actively involved in making an environment which is as 1 Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena.

Emergency situations may appear at any moment and therefore all schools must be prepared to react correctly in such an event. Carrying out evacuation drills in schools is a very important preventive measure. In Spain, the public administration has been concerned since some years ago about increasing schools’ awareness in prevention matters; although at present both the pupils’ training in prevention as well as the pedagogical importance of evacuation drills are insufficient. The current research work seeks to demonstrate the influence that the pedagogical importance of evacuation drills have on the general efficacy of these exercises.Campus Mare Nostrum, Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena, Universidad de Murcia, Región de Murci

Arte participativo y colaborativo en el espacio público de Nantes: Una galería a cielo abierto con doble involucración social y terminológica

La ciudad francesa de Nantes y su área metropolitana son reconocido epicentro mundial en cuestiones de arte público, pero también puede buscarse allí un referente en la distinción entre arte “participativo” y “colaborativo”, dos adjetivos entre los que cabe una diferenciación tanto social como terminológica. Aquí se ejemplifican por un lado con singulares instalaciones escultórico-arquitectónicas realizadas por artistas internacionales con la participación de la gente local, y con plurales murales de arte urbano pintados en co-laboración por colectivos de artistas, estudiantes de arte, etc

Beach balls: Assessing frustration tolerance in young children using a computerized task

Frustration tolerance is a skill related to emotional regulation processes and is important insofar as it affects people's social relationships and even health. Low levels of frustration tolerance in children have been associated with a greater number of externalizing symptoms such as aggression or anger. Despite its importance, there are a limited number of tasks that attempt to evaluate this construct objectively. Therefore, the aim of our work was the design of a computerized task, programmed as a videogame in order to assess frustration tolerance in children from 6 to 10 years old. The results obtained showed that the test had a good internal consistency and could be useful as an objective measure of frustration tolerance in children. In line with the literature, our data have shown no influence of gender or laterality of participants during the task and only 7% of the frustration measure could be explained by the influence of participants' age. On the other hand, the performance of the participants during the task has allowed us to classify them into six groups according to their performance, namely Low/High Frustration, Low/High Performance and Low/High Reaction Time. This test would permit to compare participants' performance with their reference group but also with their own results, facilitating the obtention of an objective assessment of frustration tolerance in young children.Ministerio de Ciencia Innovación y Universidades PID2019-110739GB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033Junta de Andalucía HUM-64
