Aquest projecte té la intenció d'identificar i analitzar els efectes de la introducció d'Internet a les escoles catalanes (educació primària i secundària). L'objectiu és posar de manifest la manera com s'utilitza la xarxa en aquest àmbit i en quina mesura contribueix a l'aparició, en els centres educatius, d'una nova cultura adaptada a les necessitats de la societat xarxa. Amb aquest propòsit, aquest projecte desplega les seves línies d'anàlisi per a fer atenció al procés d'incorporació d'Internet, principalment, en tres direccions: la pràctica pedagògica, les formes d'organització i gestió dels centres educatius i la seva vinculació amb la comunitat i el territori. Aquesta investigació ha estat desenvolupada pel grup de recerca ENS (Education and Network Society). Amb una perspectiva comparativa, el treball d'aquest grup vol contribuir, sobre la base de dades empíriques, a interpretar la transformació de l'àmbit educatiu no universitari en els paràmetres que estableix, avui dia, la nostra societat.

El projecte “Ecoauditoria de l’IES Santa Coloma de Farners” consisteix en: la diagnosi ambiental del centre, les propostes de les línees d'acció, les propostes d’ actuació, la valoració i anàlisi de les propostes i l’ autoseguiment del pla d’ acció indispensables per a que el centre pugui aconseguir el distintiu d'Escola Verda que atorga la Generalitat de Catalunya. Incorporar l’ educació ambiental en el currículum escolar és un altre dels objectius d’ aquest treball. Així que es proposen activitats curriculars amb l’ objectiu de transmetre una major sensibilització ambiental a l’alumnat i a tota la comunitat educativa en general

Aquest projecte final vol ser un acostament senzill, però amb voluntat de rigorositat respecte a la capacitat mnemònica en el context de l’ensenyament i l’aprenentatge musical. Bàsicament està estructurat en dos grans blocs. D’una banda el marc teòric, el qual proporciona una visió general del funcionament de la memòria a nivell neurològic, psicològic i musical, i dels tipus de memòria existents dels quals ens podem servir per a memoritzar. De l’altra faig una recerca sobre quin paper juga la memòria musical tant en músics formats com en nens que comencen a aprendre música. Els musics formats són representats per una mostra d’alumnes de quart curs i graduats de quatre conservatoris superiors diferents, als que a través d’un qüestionari se’ls demana informació per conèixer de primera mà la seva opinió, vivències i coneixements sobre com utilitzen la memòria. Els nens en formació s’investiguen a través d’un estudi de cas amb la intenció de comprovar què suposa dissenyar activitats d’aprenentatge orientades a facilitar la capacitat de la memòria de les persones que estan començant a aprendre música.

When did overseas trade start to matter for living standards? Traditional real-wage indices suggest that living standards in Europe stagnated before 1800. In this paper, we argue thatwelfare rose substantially, but surreptitiously, because of an influx of new goods as a result ofoverseas trade. Colonial luxuries such as tea, coffee, and sugar transformed European diets afterthe discovery of America and the rounding of the Cape of Good Hope. These goods became household items in many countries by the end of the 18th century. We use three different methodsto calculate welfare gains based on price data and the rate of adoption of these new colonialgoods. Our results suggest that by 1800, the average Englishman would have been willing to forego 10% or more of his income in order to maintain access to sugar and tea alone. These findings are robust to a wide range of alternative assumptions, data series, and valuation methods.

Learning activities outside the classroom in Earth Sciences are considered fundamental to achieve an adequate level of knowledge. New pedagogical perspectives, structured in competency-based activities, provide a useful tool to improve the effectiveness of field geology classes. In this paper, we point out some general educational aspects, and we propose a curriculum design focused on accomplishing the competencies that go with fieldtrips in Geology courses

Didactic knowledge about contents is constructed through an idiosyncratic synthesis between knowledge about the subject area, students' general pedagogical knowledge and the teacher's biography. This study aimed to understand the construction process and the sources of Pedagogical Content Knowledge, as well as to analyze its manifestations and variations in interactive teaching by teachers whom the students considered competent. Data collection involved teachers from an undergraduate nursing program in the South of Brazil, through non-participant observation and semistructured interviews. Data analysis was submitted to the constant comparison method. The results disclose the need for initial education to cover pedagogical aspects for nurses; to assume permanent education as fundamental in view of the complexity of contents and teaching; to use mentoring/monitoring and the value learning with experienced teachers with a view to the development of quality teaching.

La posibilidad de transformar los retos que el proceso de adaptación al Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior plantea a la universidad, en oportunidades de mejora en la formación de los graduados en educación social centra este artículo, que tiene por objetivo presentar una propuesta formativa concreta dirigida a reducir la discrepancia entre el escenario formativo universitario, tradicionalmente académico, y las necesidades de la práctica profesional en un ámbito envuelto en una complejidad creciente. En primer lugar, situamos la acutal formación de grado de educación social y los retos que plantea para después defender la necesidad de introducir un modelo alternativo al modelo técnico en la formación de los educadores sociales que permita abordar la dimensión actitudinal en los estudios de grado de educación social de la Universidad de Girona, basado en el modelo del aprendizaje reflexivo. Finalmente aportamos unas breves reflexiones en torno a la propuesta y a sus implicaciones para el profesorado y para los estudiantes

La formación universitaria actual está avanzando hacia un nuevo modelo de enseñanza-aprendizaje que plantea unos cambios muy importantes respecto a la formación universitaria tradicional, como consecuencia del proceso de adaptación al Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior. En este artículo exponemos cuáles son los condicionantes de las nuevas titulaciones, señalando los principales cambios que se configuran a partir de la normativa estatal y, a partir de aquí, nos centramos en la titulación de Educación social para analizar cuáles son, desde nuestro punto de vista, los principales retos que conlleva la adaptación de estos estudios a la EEES, tanto para la propia universidad como para el mundo profesional

In recent years, studies into the reasons for dropping out of higher education (including online education) have been undertaken with greater regularity, parallel to the rise in the relative weight of this type of education, compared with brick-and-mortar education. However, the work invested in characterising the students who drop out of education, compared with those who do not, appears not to have had the same relevance as that invested in the analysis of the causes. The definition of dropping out is very sensitive to the context. In this article, we reach a purely empirical definition of student dropping out, based on the probability of not continuing a specific academic programme following several consecutive semesters of "theoretical break". Dropping out should be properly defined before analysing its causes, as well as comparing the drop-out rates between the different online programmes, or between online and on-campus ones. Our results show that there are significant differences among programmes, depending on their theoretical extension, but not their domain of knowledge.

The lower medieval Catalan model of the estudi general (university) exemplified by the case of Lleida emphasises the weight achieved by the students as a body, the jurisdictional conflicts and, especially, the serious economic difficulties, that poisoned the relations with the poorly paid teaching staff and made the centre impossible to run. In that sense, the monarchy’s incapacity to provide the jurisdictional and financial bases, pushed higher education under a growing ecclesiastical weight snd municipal dependence. The local government, for its part, would have to increase the means of taxation needed to produce the necessary financing. All together, this generated difficulties that would burden the estudis generals throughout the lower Middle ages and into modern centuries, until their closure in the 18th century.

Understanding how blogs can support collaborative learning is a vital concern for researchers and teachers. This paper explores how blogs may be used to support Secondary Education students’ collaborative interaction and how such an interaction process can promote the creation of a Community of Inquiry to enhance critical thinking and meaningful learning. We designed, implemented and evaluated a science case-based project in which fifteen secondary students participated. Students worked in the science blogging project during 4 months. We asked students to be collaboratively engaged in purposeful critical discourse and reflection in their blogs in order to solve collectively science challenges and construct meaning about topics related to Astronomy and Space Sciences. Through student comments posted in the blog, our findings showed that the blog environment afforded the construction of a Community of Inquiry and therefore the creation of an effective online collaborative learning community. In student blog comments, the three presences for collaborative learning took place: cognitive, social, and teaching presence. Moreover, our research found a positive correlation among the three presences –cognitive, social and teaching– of the Community of Inquiry model with the level of learning obtained by the students. We discuss a series of issues that instructors should consider when blogs are incorporated into teaching and learning. We claim that embedded scaffolds to help students to argue and reason their comments in the blog are required to foster blog-supported collaborative learning.

A number of bacterial species, mostly proteobacteria, possess monothiol glutaredoxins homologous to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondrial protein Grx5, which is involved in iron–sulphur cluster synthesis. Phylogenetic profiling is used to predict that bacterial monothiol glutaredoxins also participate in the iron–sulphur cluster (ISC) assembly machinery, because their phylogenetic profiles are similar to the profiles of the bacterial homologues of yeast ISC proteins. High evolutionary cooccurrence is observed between the Grx5 homologues and the homologues of the Yah1 ferredoxin, the scaffold proteins Isa1 and Isa2, the frataxin protein Yfh1 and the Nfu1 protein. This suggests that a specific functional interaction exists between these ISC machinery proteins. Physical interaction analyses using low-definition protein docking predict the formation of strong and specific complexes between Grx5 and several components of the yeast ISC machinery. Two-hybrid analysis has confirmed the in vivo interaction between Grx5 and Isa1. Sequence comparison techniques and cladistics indicate that the other two monothiol glutaredoxins of S. cerevisiae, Grx3 and Grx4, have evolved from the fusion of a thioredoxin gene with a monothiol glutaredoxin gene early in the eukaryotic lineage, leading to differential functional specialization. While bacteria do not contain these chimaeric glutaredoxins, in many eukaryotic species Grx5 and Grx3/4-type monothiol glutaredoxins coexist in the cell.

The creation of the European Higher Education Area has meant a number of significant changes to the educational structures of the university community. In particular, the new system of European credits has generated the need for innovation in the design of curricula and teaching methods. In this paper, we propose debating as a classroom tool that can help fulfill these objectives by promoting an active student role in learning. To demonstrate the potential of this tool, a classroom experiment was conducted in a bachelor’s degree course in Industrial Economics -Regulation and Competition-, involving a case study in competition policy and incorporating the techniques of a conventional debate -presentation of standpoints, turns, right to reply and summing up-. The experiment yielded gains in student attainment and positive assessments of the subject. In conclusion, the incorporation of debating activities helps students to acquire the skills, be they general or specific, required to graduate successfully in Economics.
