Estrone is a powerful growth-inducing hormone that is present in milk, mainly in the form of fatty acid esters, at concentrations that promote growth in experimental animals. We present here a method useful for the measurement of this natural hormone in foods and applied it to several common dairy products. Samples were frozen, finely powdered, and lyophilized then extracted with trichloromethane/methanol; the dry extract was saponified with potassium hydroxide. The free estrone evolved was extracted with ethyl acetate and was used for the estimation of total estrone content through radioimmunoassay. Application of the method to dairy products showed high relative levels of total estrone (essentially acyl-estrone) in milk, in the range of 1 ¿M, which were halved in skimmed milk. Free estrone levels were much lower, in the nanomolar range. A large proportion of estrone esters was present in all other dairy products, fairly correlated with their fat content. The amount of estrone carried by milk is well within the range, where its intake may exert a physiological response in the sucklings for which it is provided. These growth-inducing and energy expenditure-lowering effects may affect humans ingesting significant amounts of dairy products.

[eng] There is a vast literature on intergenerational mobility in sociology and economics. Similar interest has emerged for the phenomenon of over-education in both disciplines. There are no studies, however, linking these two research lines. We study the relationship between social mobility and over-education in a context of educational expansion. Our framework allows for the evaluation of several policies, including those affecting social segregation, early intervention programs and the power of unions. Results show the evolution of social mobility, over-education, income inequality and equality of opportunity under each scenario.

This paper focuses on timing of fertility decisions, conditional on the level of educational attainment of parents. Timing of fertility and educational attainment of parents rationalize the negative relationship observed in the data between hourly wages and childbearing. It is shown how the recent evolution in total fertility rates observed in developed countries could be in part the result of a transition from an early childbearing regime to a late childbearing regime. I develop a general equilibrium overlapping generations model in order to understand the joint determination of timing of childbearing decisions together with other household economic decisions in a life cycle framework. I show how idiosyncratic uncertainty might have asymmetric efects on completed fertility depending on timing of childbearing, generating the diferences in completed fertility observed between households that difer in their level of educational attainment.

[cat] Aquest projecte és una continuació del programa de recerca iniciat amb el projecte de R+D "School+ more than a platform to build the school of tomorrow" (IST-2000-25162) parcialment finançat per la Unió Europea a través de la convocatòria L'Escola del Demà, del Programa de Tecnologies de la Societat de la Informació del 5è Programa Marc. Aquesta iniciativa va ser seguida i aprofundida amb el projecte "Aprenentatge per a la comprensió en entorns virtuals als centres de secundària: la Xarxa School+", parcialment finançat pel DURSI a través de la convocatòria ARIE 2004. En aquest sentit, s'inscriu sota el mateix paraigües epistemològic (sociocultural) i metodològic (construccionista) dels projectes anteriors, i es basa en la utilització de diferents tipus d'evidències,en aquest cas però prestant especial atenció a la qüestió de l'avaluació de l'aprenentatge per a la comprensió i la dotació de sentit. En aquest context adquireix especial rellevància la idea del portafoli -o e-portafoli, webfoli, portafoli electrònic o digital- com a estratègia avaluadora de la comprensió i afavoridora de formes més complexes d'aprenentatge. En aquest informe, i d¿acord amb allò manifestat al projecte de recerca, es donen respostes a les següents qüestions: (a) quines són les possibilitats i les limitacions del portafoli electrònic com a sistema per avaluar processos d'aprenentatge de caràcter complex, orientats a la comprensió i la dotació de sentit; (b) com tenen lloc els processos d'innovació i millora a l'ensenyament secundari quan es fan servir entorns virtuals d'informació i comunicació, i es persegueix el desenvolupament d'un model pedagògic i curricular de caràcter interdisciplinari;(c) quins processos pedagògics, organitzatius, cognitius i emocionals estan implicats en les situacions d'aprenentatge orientades a la comprensió i la dotació de sentit, i no en la memorització i repetició de continguts; (d) com es desenvolupen experiències de col·laboració entre professors, estudiants i centres de secundària.

[spa] El contenido de esta publicación se deriva de la investigación "Repensar el éxito y el fracaso escolar de la Educación Secundaria desde la relación de los jóvenes con el saber". Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación. EDU2008-03287. 2008-2011. Las narraciones biográficas rescatan las experiencias escolares de estudiantes que durante su recorrido en la escuela secundaria se encontraron en una posición de éxito o fracaso escolar. La publicación da cuenta de relatos de situaciones, historias, conductas y discursos en torno a las experiencias de relación de un grupo de jóvenes con los saberes de la escuela secundaria y fuera de ella.
