Anàlisi de la competència del professorat d'educació física davant l'alumnat amb discapacitat

La present investigació es fonamenta en l’anàlisi de la competència del professorat d’educació física envers un alumnat amb discapacitat. L’objectiu és tenir coneixement de com el professorat assoleix aquesta competència i detectar possibles mancances a través de la formació adquirida, la figura de suport a les classes i/o la implicació de la família de l’alumnat. S’han analitzat 4 professors que han tingut estudiants amb discapacitat entre el seu alumnat amb l’objectiu de relacionar les seves vivències i punts de vista amb les idees dels investigadors més rellevants que presento en el marc teòric. Els resultats obtinguts demostren, d’una banda, que a les universitats catalanes hi ha poca formació en aquest àmbit, de l’altra, que a la figura de suport tot i ser de gran ajut si l’administració la concedeix li manquen coneixements d’educació física i, finalment, que la implicació de la família de l’alumnat és, sovint, imprescindible. D’altra banda, també s’ha detectat que la formació universitària va enfocada a un alumnat “estàndard”, i, respecte la figura de suport, cal destacar la reivindicació del professorat per exercir el dret a decidir sobre la necessitat o no d’aquesta figura.

Anàlisi de la figura de coordinador/a TIC a deu escoles vallesanes: Funcions, formació i perfil

La present recerca és un estudi de cas de la figura del coordinador/a TIC (Tecnologies de la Informació i la Comunicació) centrant-se en aspectes referents a les funcions, la formació i el perfil. El constant avenç tecnològic en la societat també inclou el món educatiu i això crea la necessitat de tenir una figura dinamitzadora de les TIC dins l’escola, un punt de referència. Amb l’objectiu d’aconseguir conèixer aquesta figura es dissenya i s’aplica un qüestionari amb el qual s’obtindrà informació d’aquesta figura tractant temes que van tant dels esmentats anteriorment com de la comissió TAC o dels recursos TIC que disposen. Per poder obtenir aquesta informació es compta amb la participació de deu escoles vallesanes. Els resultats mostren que el tipus de funció que més realitza són les Tècniques mentre que les de Lideratge són les que menys. Mostren també com la formació que es demana és tècnica i pedagògica i que el perfil dels coordinadors/es TIC és bastant divers. En conclusió, es pot dir que la figura del coordinador/a TIC de centre és un punt clau dins l’escola ja que ajuda a la inclusió digital, entre d’altres aspectes, però encara és una figura molt ambigua.

Aspects de la représentation de l'autre dans les romans grecs et "Les Métamorphoses" d'Apulée

Les romans grecs et les Métamorphoses d'Apulée - même si les modalités sont différentes pour ce dernier - sont des fictions en prose qui fonctionnent autour de topoi auxquels la figure de l'Autre n'échappe pas. Bien que le monde grec soit alors radicalement différent de ce qu'il était au Ve siècle avant J.-C, période à laquelle l'identité grecque est construite par opposition à la figure du barbare, les romanciers qui prennent la plume à partir du 1er siècle avant notre ère utilisent un certain nombre de stéréotypes hérités de l'époque classique, alors mise à l'honneur par le mouvement de la Seconde Sophistique. Il s'agit d'étudier dans le détail certains éléments de la représentation de l'Autre pour déterminer qui il est, comment il se comporte, ce qui le constitue en Autre. Puis, à partir de cette esquisse, nécessairement incomplète, d'évaluer ce que cette représentation peut induire sur l'image de l'identité grecque à l'époque impériale, par le jeu de miroir que F. Hartog a décelé dans l'oeuvre d'Hérodote. Une première partie est consacrée aux rapports entre l'homme et l'animal ainsi qu'à l'image de la sauvagerie, ce qui permet d'explorer les bornes romanesques de l'humanité. La seconde partie s'attache à des éléments que l'époque classique a plus particulièrement mis en avant pour distinguer les Grecs des non-Grecs : le critère de la langue, l'art de faire la guerre et le discours politique qui est tenu sur les institutions barbares. La troisième partie étudie la place des dieux et des pratiques religieuses dans la définition de l'Autre. J'espère ainsi contribuer à la compréhension du genre romanesque et des représentations culturelles de l'empire « gréco-romain ». -- The Greek novels and The Metamorphoses of Apuleius, even if it is in different terms for the last, are prose fictions which are based on topoi, and the figure of the Other is one of them. Although the Greek world was radically different of what it was in the fifth century BC, time during which Greek identity is contructed as opposed to the figure of the barbaros, the authors of novels, who wrote from the first century BC onward, used some stereotypes inherited from classical period, which was celebrated by the Second Sophistic movement. The aim of this thesis is to study in detail some elements of the representation of the Other to determine who it is, how he behaves, what makes him other. Then, from this sketch, necessarily incomplete, to evaluate what this representation says about the image of Greek identity in the imperial age, according to the play of the mirror detected by F. Hartog in the text of Herodotus. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to the relationship between man and animal and to the image of savagery, in order to explore the novelistic limits of humanity. The second part concentrates on elements that classical period had particularly insisted on to promote the distinction between Greeks and non-Greeks : the linguistic criterion, the way to make war, and the politic discourse on the barbaric institutions. The third part study the place of the gods and of religious practices in the definition of the Other. I hope to contribute to the understanding of novel genre and of cultural representations of the « greco- roman- empire ».

Passat i present de la impremta escolar i els llibres de vida: les tècniques Freinet a l’Estat espanyol a propòsit d’algunes publicacions recents

Les darreres publicacions sobre els inicis de les tècniques Freinet a les escoles de l’Estat espanyol són una bona oportunitat per conèixer les aportacions dels mestres que van apostar per una renovació pedagògica, i posen de manifest la vigència de les pràctiques del pedagog Célestin Freinet. La nostra aportació recull i relaciona les idees principals d’alguns dels estudis recents sobre les tècniques Freinet, relacionades amb l’aprenentatge del llenguatge, amb l’objectiu de ressenyar alguns aspectes importants de les investigacions i fer un breu repàs a la figura dels mestres que impulsaren l’ús de la impremta a l’escola, la creació de les revistes escolars i els llibres de vida a l’Estat espanyol. Propostes basades en la manipulació, el tempteig experimental, la necessitat d’expressió de l’infant, el foment de la reflexió lingüística i la creativitat, que van renovar l’enfocament de l’aprenentatge de la lectura i l’escriptura i que es reivindiquen com a pràctiques útils actualment. Es pretén contribuir a la difusió del valuós llegat dels mestres que van creure en una escola renovada i, al mateix temps, a la recuperació de les bases del seu ideari pedagògic. La vitalitat de les recerques actuals és una mostra del creixent interès per recuperar les aportacions de Freinet, per conèixer el nostre passat i poder reflexionar sobre la millora de la pràctica docent present i de futur.

CHARACTERISING THE EOS SLOT-SCANNING SYSTEM WITH THE EFFECTIVE DETECTIVE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY.

NlmCategory="UNASSIGNED">As opposed to the standard detective quantum efficiency (DQE), effective DQE (eDQE) is a figure of merit that allows comparing the performances of imaging systems in the presence of scatter rejection devices. The geometry of the EOS™ slot-scanning system is such that the detector is self-collimated and rejects scattered radiation. In this study, the EOS system was characterised using the eDQE in imaging conditions similar to those used in clinical practice: with phantoms of different widths placed in the X-ray beam, for various incident air kerma and tube voltages corresponding to the phantom thickness. Scatter fractions in EOS images were extremely low, around 2 % for all configurations. Maximum eDQE values spanned 9-14.8 % for a large range of air kerma at the detector plane from 0.01 to 1.34 µGy. These figures were obtained with non-optimised EOS setting but still over-performed most of the maximum eDQEs recently assessed for various computed radiology and digital radiology systems with antiscatter grids.

Camillo Berneri: la pluma y la pistola: contribuciones al debate sobre la función social de los intelectuales

Este trabajo pretende rescatar la figura, no exenta de polèmica, de Camillo Berneri. Para algunos Berneri fue una de las mentes más claras del periodo de entreguerres. También se tratará el periodo histórico concreto de la revolución social que sucedió en la España de 1936

Les escriptores catalanes vuitcentistes i la traducció

La història de la traducció al català en el segle XIX no presenta la figura del traductor professional, sinó només la de l’escriptor doblat de traductor. Però d’escriptores vuitcentistes que escrivissin en català, n’hi va haver poques i, de fet, no en tenim encara una nòmina completa ni podem valorar, amb unes escasses excepcions, les seves aportacions literàries ni quantitativament ni qualitativament. La poca o nul·la recerca realitzada en aquest àmbit fa que tampoc no tinguem prou informació per precisar quina fou la contribució traductogràfica real de les literates catalanes en aquella centúria. El treball intenta ser una aproximació al tema, alhora que un estat de la qüestió.

Maria de Portugal, una dona amagada per la història

The points of departure of this article are our own researches which talked about Maria of Portugal and widowhood during the 14ht century, respectively. We were interested in the figure of Maria of Portugal as example of all that kind of people, mostly women but also children who were treated as change currency by their relatives. They were used to guaranty peace treaties and other agreements, but also as hostages in war times. This article is based on the study of Maria's will, which is preserved in the Arxiu de la Coroan d'Aaragó. however we also thought necessary to present the figure of Maria of Portugal in order to grasp, not only the events that marked her life, but also the way they influenced in her thoughts an feelings.

Christina Rossetti's "Goblin market" : Milton revised or revived?

The present study examines Christina Rossetti's (1830-94) best-known poem "Goblin Market" (1859) as a response to John Milton's (1608-74) Paradise Lost (1667) and Paradise Regained (1674). Rossetti's poem relates to Milton's twin epics with a surprising degree of complexity, something that the thesis demonstrates through a large number of hitherto unexplored textual parallels. In its recontextualisation of Rossetti's poetry, this study balances interpretative strategies evolved by feminism with more historicist readings. SinceGilbert and Gubar's landmark feminist work of 1979, it has become something of a critical commonplace that Milton was a figure of patriarchal oppression whom women writers have challenged through revision. As a consequence, intertextual Rossetti studies have tended to emphasise such a revisionist element in her achievement. But if we place "Goblin Market" within the larger context of Rossetti's thoughts on religion and poetry throughout her writing, and if we de-emphasise the dichotomy between Rossetti and her male precursor, alternative patterns of reading begin to emerge. This thesis argues that Rossetti's aim was not only to revise Milton but also to revive him. It develops this point in several ways: first, by introducing the subject and theoretically arguing that literary allusiveness is not necessarily a matter of oedipal or feminist envy only (Chapter One); second, by determining the nature and extent of Rossetti's Miltonic allusions in terms of theme, imagery and language (Chapter Two);and third, by examining their function in terms of argument (Chapters Three andFour). I n an age of increasing religious doubt, Rossetti's poetry provided a subtle challenge not so much to Milton as to the emerging scepticism and aestheticism in Victorian society and its art-world, and not least to the secular tendencies of the second generation of Pre-Raphaelites, including Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Christina Rossetti was ahead of her time (and perhaps ours) in seeing the feminist potential in both John Milton and the Christian message. In the soul's relation to Christ, gender does not matter. What matters is the individual's quest for salvation, a quest in which poetry is a sacramental act, with a transformative, unifying function. Rossetti's poems both depict and constitute such a quest for union with God, on the assumption that God's word offers a pathway that is open to men as well as women.

Porin seudun liikenneturvallisuussuunnitelma

Porin seudulle laadittiin liikenneturvallisuussuunnitelma Harjavallan, Huittisen, Kokemäen, Luvian, Merikarvian, Nakkilan, Pomarkun, Porin ja Ulvilan kuntien alueelle. Suunnitelmat laadittiin kuntien ja Varsinais-Suomen ELY-keskuksen yhteistyönä. Suunnitelma sisältää turvallisuuden parantamisen lisäksi kestävien liikkumismuotojen edistämistä. Seudun liikenneturvallisuuden ja liikkumisen ongelmia kartoitettiin kaikille kuntalaisille suunnatuilla kyselyillä, onnettomuusanalyysillä sekä maastokäynneillä. Onnettomuusanalyysin perusteella seudun liikenneturvallisuuden tila Porin seudulla on koko maan keskiarvoa heikompi. Vuosittain kuolee noin 10 henkilöä ja loukkaantuu noin 220 henkilöä. Seudulla tapahtuneista onnettomuuksista aiheutuu kustannuksia vuosittain keskimäärin noin 90 miljoonaa euroa, josta kuntien osuus on vuosittain noin 16 miljoonaa euroa. Kyselyn vastauksista ilmeni, että vastaajia huolestutti muun muassa jalankulku- ja pyöräväylien kunto ja esteettömyys sekä talvikunnossapidon taso. Autoilun olosuhteissa tyytymättömyyttä aiheutti teiden kunto ja kunnossapidon taso sekä kouluympäristöjen liikennejärjestelyt. Kyselyyn vastanneista 64 %:lla työ- tai koulumatkan pituus on korkeintaan 5 kilometriä, joten kävelyn ja pyöräilyn edistämisellä seudulla on hyvät edellytykset. Ongelma-analyysin sekä valtakunnallisten tavoitteiden pohjalta seudulle määritettiin liikenneturvallisuustavoitteet. Pitkän aikavälin liikenneturvallisuusvisioksi seudulle asetettiin, että kenenkään ei tarvitse kuolla tai loukkaantua vakavasti liikenteessä ja liikkuminen on vastuullista ja se koetaan turvalliseksi. Määrällisenä tavoitteena on, että nykyisestä 10 keskimäärin vuodessa kuolleesta seudulla kuolisi liikenteessä enintään 6 henkilöä (40 henkilöä / miljoona asukasta) vuonna 2014 ja enintään 3 henkilöä (24 henkilöä / miljoona asukasta) vuonna 2020. Loukkaantuneiden määrän tavoitteena on, että nykyisestä 218 henkilöstä vähennystä olisi 25 % (korkeintaan 163 henkilöä) vuoteen 2020 mennessä. Nuorten onnettomuusriskiä halutaan pienentää 25 % vuoteen 2020 mennessä siten, että heidän riskinsä lähenee muun väestön onnettomuusriskin tasoa. Liikenneympäristön parantamisehdotukset tehtiin noin 300 kohteeseen seudulla. Toimenpiteiden toteuttaminen vaiheistettiin kolmeen ohjeelliseen kiireellisyysluokkaan. Suunnitelmatyön aikana kuntien liikenneturvallisuustyötä aktivoitiin ja perustettiin uudet ryhmät niihin kuntiin, joista ryhmät puuttuivat. Hallintokuntatilaisuuksissa ideoitiin ja käsiteltiin eri liikkujaryhmille sopivia toimintamuotoja liikenneturvallisuuden ja kestävän liikkumisen edistämiseksi. Lisäksi muodostettiin seudullinen liikenneturvallisuusryhmä, joka seuraa ja koordinoi liikenneturvallisuustyötä tulevaisuudessa.

„Und frei erklär' ich alle meine Knechte“ : Höflichkeit als Ausdruck sozialer Utopie in Schillers Drama Wilhelm Tell.

My dissertation is an interdisciplinary study of the relationship between the Swiss peasants and nobles in Friedrich Schiller’s play Wilhelm Tell (1804). Changes to this relationship are of particular interest. Communication in the play is examined via a micro-analysis based on Penelope Brown’s and Stephen C. Levinson’s theoretical framework Politeness: Some universals in language usage. (1978, 1987). Brown and Levinson distinguish between positivepoliteness and negative-politeness strategies and their distinction is useful for my argument, since they claim that the use of positive-politeness strategies reflects the speaker’s intention to minimize the distance between the interlocutors (Brown and Levinson 1987: 103). Negative-politeness strategies, by contrast, result in social distancing (Brown and Levinson 1987: 130). In accordance with Brown’s and Levinson’s theory, it can be argued that the distribution of positive-politeness and negative-politeness strategies reflects changes in the distance between the fictional interlocutors as representatives of their social classes in Wilhelm Tell. The analysis of the communication in the play highlights that existing conflicts within the social groups are resolved and replaced with solidarity (cf. ‘Claim ’common ground’ and ‘Claim in-group membership with H’) before the peasants and noblemen appear on stage simultaneously in III, 3. In the scene in question, Geßler forces Tell to shoot the apple off his son’s head. Although both nobles and peasants are present, they do not communicate with each other. Thus, communication between the social classes occurs for the first time in IV, 2. This scene is crucial with regard to the changes in the relationship between the social classes in the play. The younger generation, with Rudenz as a representative of the nobility and Melchthal as a representative of the peasants, break with the prevailing conventions and initiate a new type of cooperation based on mutual helping and equality in the right and the duty to protect the country from the violent oppressors representing Habsburg (cf. ‘Convey that S and H are cooperators’, ‘Claim reflexivity’ and ‘Claim reciprocity’). The linguistic analysis reveals the crucial role of the Swiss nobility in the development of the social utopia, as well as the non-contribution of Wilhelm Tell. In fact, Tell never communicates with the Swiss noblemen. The role of the nobility and the role of Wilhelm Tell are further investigated in a comparison between Schiller’s Wilhelm Tell and four of Schiller’s historical sources. These sources, which contain earlier, non-dramatic versions of the establishment of the Swiss Confederation, are the following: Kronica von der loblichen Eydtgnoschaft compiled by Petermann Etterlin (1507), Gemeiner loblicher Eydgnoschafft Stetten Landen vnd Völckeren Chronik wirdiger thaaten beschreybung (1548) written by Johann Stumpf, Chronicon Helveticum of Aegidius Tschudi (the publication of Iselin from 1734 and 1736) and Johannes von Müller’s Geschichten schweizerischer Eidgenossenschaft (1786). Thecomparison sheds light on the fact that both Tschudi and von Müller emphasize unity among the Swiss and cooperation in their attempt to defeat the enemy. However, Schiller has reinforced the role of the nobility in the cooperation. In addition, the comparison between Schiller’s play and the historical sources reveals profound differences with regard to the role of Wilhelm Tell. In all of Schiller’s sources, Tell is present at Rütli, whereas he is absent from Rütli in Schiller’s play. In the play in general, Tell is conspicuously separated from the other peasants. Explanations of my linguistic results, which correspond to the above mentioned differences between the roles of the figures in Wilhelm Tell and the depictions in Schiller’s sources, are found by comparing the path of Schiller’s Swiss towards an egalitarian perspective with the kind of social evolution depicted by the German philosopher Johann Benjamin Erhard in his essay Über das Recht des Volks zu einer Revolution (1795). Aiming at considering Schiller’s social utopia within the larger cultural framework of the German response to the French Revolution, the comparison suggests that both authors depict the need for social change in terms of a change in social hierarchies (Erhard 1970: 95-96, cf. Foi 2005: 225). Erhard’s essay thus helps explain the political intention of Schiller’s play to keep the ideals of the French Revolution as crucial aims but profoundly change the means towards freedom and equality. In his attempt to claim the political resistance of the nobles and peasants as just, however, Schiller sacrificed the figure of Wilhelm Tell. Guilty of the murder of Geßler, Tell was no longer suitable for the righteous revolution imagined by Schiller (cf. Bloch 2008: 215 and Schulz 2005: 228). This explains Tell’s absence in the Rütli scene, his isolation in the plot, as well as his non-contribution to the social utopia. Together, the linguistic analysis and contextualisation of Schiller’s play support my hypothesis that Wilhelm Tell describes a process of change in the relationship between peasants and nobles. The interdisciplinary approach to the topic proved to be fruitful for all areas of the research involved.

World War I Memorial Plaque

World War I Memorial Plaque (17 ½ cm in diameter). This is a bronze plate encased in a 26 ½ cm x 24 cm wooden frame. The inscription on the plate is “He died for freedom and honour, Samuel DeVeaux Woodruff”. [In 1916 the British Government decided to issue a memorial plaque to be given to the relatives of those who died in the Great War. On the plaque is a figure of Britannia who is facing left and holding a laurel wreath over the box where the serviceman’s name is placed. In her right hand she holds a trident which represents Britain’s sea power. There are 2 dolphins facing her on her left and right hand sides. A lion stands in front of her. He faces left with a menacing growl. A very small lion that faces right is located below the larger lion’s feet. He is biting into a winged creature which represents the German Imperial eagle. Near the lion’s right paw there are the initials E CR P which stand for Mr. E. Carter Preston who designed the plate. Some of the plaques include a stamped batch number in front of the lion’s rear left paw. This plaque was produced in batch 17].

Meeting Minutes July 7th, 1972

The first "business arising out of the minutes" is a protest made by Mr. W.R. Barnes concerning action taken at a previous meeting by the Directors. In the meeting in February, he had been replaced as Vice-President after 20 years in the role and 38 years as a Director. His record of attendance was called into question and would be discussed and shown at the next meeting. The second issue discussed is the "proposal with respect to purchasing the assets of the Corporation". A letter was received from F.L. Laundry Real Estate Limited with interest from a Central European client in "acquiring the assets of the Corporation, and indicating that if the circumstances warranted, a figure of 3.5 millions would not be beyond their capabilities". The offer would be explored by the solicitor. The next agenda item discusses was the Sault Ste. Marie store. Another issue discussed was the "Withdrawal from Valley Rouge Wines Limited".
