Perspectivas de la literatura comparada en Costa Rica. /

En un mundo en que se habla de la necesidad de una compresión mutua entre diferentes culturas y en una sociedad que evoluciona vertiginosamente en todos los campos del saber, es necesario que reflexionemos aquí y ahora lo que significa nuestro quehacer como docentes de literatura.

APLICACIÓN DEL ANÁLISIS DE SOBREVIVENCIA AL ESTUDIO DEL TIEMPO REQUERIDO PARA GRADUARSE EN EDUCACIÓN SUPERIOR: EL CASO DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE COSTA RICA

En el siguiente artículo se analiza el tiempo requerido para graduarse como bachiller universitario, así como su relación con predictores socio demográficos y de aptitud académica. Se realizó un seguimiento hasta el año 2010 para la población estudiantil que ingresó entre los años 2000 y 2003 a la Universidad de Costa Rica. Al realizar comparaciones entre las curvas de sobrevivencia, mediante el estimador Kaplan-Meier, se encontró una probabilidad mayor de graduarse tempranamente en las mujeres y en aquellos(as) estudiantes que cursaron sus estudios fuera de la capital del país. Adicionalmente se construyeron modelos de regresión de Cox, encontrándose asociaciones entre el tiempo de graduación y el tipo de colegio de procedencia, la puntuación de una prueba de aptitud académica y la tenencia de beca socioeconómica. Los resultados apuntan a que altos niveles de aptitud académica están relacionados con menores tiempos de duración de la carrera. Por otra parte, el nivel socioeconómico no parece ser determinante en los tiempos de graduación, lo cual se explica porque probablemente la tenencia de beca mitiga el efecto de dicho factor

Governança ambiental e turismo: a participação de atores no Parque Nacional Tortuguero, Costa Rica

A experiência na construção da governança ambiental em torno do Parque Nacional Tortuguero na Costa Rica é a questão principal deste artigo. A mesma será analisada a partir da implementação do Conselho Local de Tortuguero/Setor Oeste e das articulações de atores do Setor Costeiro, notadamente, onde há incidência maior de turismo. Estruturou-se este artigo com base em pesquisas qualitativas, a exemplo de coleta de informações da bibliografia especializada, de dados documentais, legais e também via entrevistas. Por meio de tais movimentos, identificou-se uma série de ações relacionadas à conservação do meio ambiente e do turismo, dentro de uma perspectiva sustentável. Entretanto, em que pese os avanços alcançados, constata-se ainda a necessidade de se empreender mais esforços por parte de todos os envolvidos, sobretudo do Estado e na sua interação com os demais atores, pois persistem problemas diversos que são, historicamente, são insustentáveis a pensar-se em manejo do meio ambiente.
