Act.musica: una herramienta inform??tica al servicio del profesor de m??sica

El objetivo fundamental del trabajo es determinar cu??les son los aspectos m??s significativos del curr??culum as?? como de la programaci??n, a los que debe dar respuesta el profesor de m??sica de secundaria. Para ello, hemos desarrollado una herramienta inform??tica, act.musica. El estudio combina tanto la metodolog??a cualitativa como la cuantitativa, utilizando como t??cnicas de investigaci??n, los grupos de discusi??n, el an??lisis de contenido y el cuestionario. As?? pues, el an??lisis que realiza act.musica, nos permite esquematizar y visualizar perfectamente la representatividad de los elementos constituyentes del curr??culum musical de la LOE, y de las distintas programaciones, as?? como en un futuro establecer una posible validaci??n cruzada.

??No pienses, act??a!

Panchayati Raj em Goa

Goa commemorated in 2011 the golden jubilee of the end of colonialism (19 December 1961) and the beginning of its participation in the democratic institutions of India. The administrative decentralization known as Panchayati Raj is an ancient tradition in India, but it suffered dilution and breaks during centuries of Muslim and British domination. During the early years of Independence, the Union government was more worried about security concerns, and hence the policies of centralization. However, the second five-year plan and during the decades of 50 and 60 one could notice greater openness towards decentralization. This was done through Constitution Amendment Act nº 73 (1992) and the inclusion of article 243 in Part IX of the Constitution. The present essay seeks to clarify how the Panchayati Raj is the key to the success of the Indian democracy in the context of its demographic magnitude and ethnic, religious and linguistic diversities. Obviously, the challenges persist, but a country like India would be ungovernable without a democratic functionality at its bottom. It would be interesting to reflect and discover if Portugal has anything to benefit from the democratic experience of India and one of the fast growing emergent economies of the world.
