¿Cuánto contaminará una central térmica que funciona con fuel? : un ejemplo de resolución de problemas como investigación.

Resumen tomado de la publicación

Fuel bajo la ventana.

Presenta una experiencia pedagógica, basada en la catástrofe del Prestige, llevada a cabo con los alumnos de quinto del CEIP Milladoiro, del municipio de Malpica de Bergantiños (A Coruña) que resultó perjudicado por el fuel. Por medio de esta actividad, los alumnos intentan entender el mundo. Para ello, leen periódicos, siguen el día a día del suceso y, sobre todo, expresan los sentimientos que les produce encontrar animales muertos en la playa o ver los barcos de los pescadores amarrados.

Rat-a-tat-tat : phonics workbook : reception.

Para ofrecer una progresiva enseñanza de la fonética, basándose en los libros de imágenes utilizados en la serie de Canal Cuatro. En la página izquierda se presenta una parte de un libro de imágenes que aparecen en la serie de televisión, para que el profesor, en la página de la derecha, proponga ejercicios de fonética según el texto, avanzando en dificultad a través de los tres años de la etapa para cinco a siete años. La enseñanza fónica coincide exactamente con la secuencia de la Estrategia Nacional de Lectura. También puede utilizarse de forma independiente. Para reconocer las consonantes iniciales, S, L, T, J, B, M, E, Z, H, P. Reconocer digrafías iniciales, SH, CH, TH. Tener en cuenta el orden alfabético de:los nombres, los animales. Discriminar los sonidos finales, -AI, -IG, -UG, -AM, -IM, -AT, -ESS.

The development of a computerized version of a revised W-1 word list for obtaining speech reception thresholds

This paper discusses the creation of a condensed list SRT application of the W-1 for the Macintosh computer.

Auditory and audio-visual reception of words in noise by observers with normal and impaired hearing

This dissertation examines auditory perception and audio-visual reception in noise for both hearing-impaired and normal hearing persons, with a goal of determining some of the noise conditions under which amplified acoustic cues for speech can be beneficial to hearing-impaired persons.

Reception of acoustic speech signals as a function of sensation levels by hearing-impaired children

This paper is a review of a study to determine the sensation level at which the best discrimination and recognition occurs for severely and profoundly deaf children and the effect of distortion (peak clipping) has on the child's ability to recognize speech.

Microblock ionomers: a new concept in high temperature, swelling-resistant membranes for PEM fuel cells

A novel series of polyaromatic ionomers with similar equivalent weights but very different sulphonic acid distributions along the ionomer backbone has been designed and prepared. By synthetically organising the sequence-distribution so that it consists of fully defined ionic segments (containing singlets, doublets or quadruplets of sulphonic acid groups) alternating strictly with equally well-defined nonionic spacer segments, a new class of polymers which may be described as microblock ionomers has been developed. These materials exhibit very different properties and morphologies from analogous randomly substituted systems. Progressively extending the nonionic spacer length in the repeat unit (maintaining a constant equivalent weight by increasing the degree of sulphonation. of the ionic segment) leads to an increasing degree of nanophase separation between hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains in these materials. Membranes cast from ionomers with the more highly phase-separated morphologies show significantly higher onset temperatures for uncontrolled swelling in water. This new type of ionomer design has enabled the fabrication of swelling-resistant hydrocarbon membranes, suitable for fuel cell operation, with very much higher ion exchange capacities (>2 meq g(-1)) than those previously reported in the literature. When tested in a fuel cell at high temperature (120 degrees C) and low relative humidity (35% RH), the best microblock membrane matched the performance of Nafion 112. Moreover, comparative low load cycle testing of membrane -electrode assemblies suggests that the durability of the new membranes under conditions of high temperature and low relative humidity is superior to that of conventional perfluorinated materials.
