Creating gusto through games and goals

Goal-based learning (GBL) has long been used for teaching (Schank and Kass, 1996) and training (Collins, 1994), and game playing is also very widely used (Fudenberg and Levine, 1998). When both are used together it can become a winning combination that focuses students? attention, dismisses precepts about a subject, lowers barriers to preferred learning-styles and open minds to new tools, ideas and concepts. The combination can be achieved using basic traditional physical props (e.g. pens and paper) or advanced internet technology. This report briefly describes an offline and online approach and then summarises some of the main benefits to be gained from combining games and goals to get students going in the right pedagogical direction.

El gusto como un factor determinante en el ejercicio crítico del diseño

A partir de algunas reflexiones gadamerianas y de otras discusionescontemporáneas en torno a la idea de juicio estético, se propone entender el papel del gusto en el ejercicio valorativo en los procesos evaluativos y, por lo tanto, críticos de las disciplinas del diseño, entendidas como un saber-hacer artístico y comunicacional.

Café para el gusto exigente. Publicidad y consumo de café en Costa Rica 1900-1930

ResumenEl objetivo de este ensayo es analizar los anuncios publicitarios que se publican en los periódicos que circulan en Costa Rica entre 1900 y 1930 ofreciendo café tostado y molido o invitando a consumir café en sitios públicos. Este es uno de los múltiples factores que estimula el aumento del consumo interno de café en Costa Rica. Estudiando el formato y el discurso que aportan los anuncios, es posible aproximarse al impacto que tienen sobre la población consumidora. El fin es entonces estudiar uno de los elementos que inciden en el aumento del consumo de café en Costa RicaAbstractThe propose of this article is to analyze the advertisements that are published in the newspapers in Costa Rica between 1900 and 1930 offering coffee toasted and ground or inviting to consume coffee in public sites. The advertisements are some of the multiple factors that increase the internal consumption of coffee in Costa Rica. Studying the format and the speech that contributes the announcements, it is possible to come near to the impact that they have on the consuming population. The aim is then to study one of the elements that affect the increase of the consumption of coffee in Costa Rica

Crítica del libro. “Héroes al gusto y libros de moda”

Introducción"Heroes al gusto y libros de moda", un título que evoca en quien lo lee, viejas preguntas a la documentación consultada en archivos y bibliotecas nacionales y por que no, guardando las distancias a Jean Louis Flandrin, cuando en su artículo "Historia de la alimentación: Por una apliación de las perspectivas", decía: "Al observar las obras maestras de la pintura y de la escultura, o al escuchar la música antigua, el especialista siente un placer artístico, Lo mismo sucede al historiador de la cocina que al cocinar con recetas antiguas puede descubrir fórmulas culinarias que deleitarían nuestro gusto actual. Aquel pescado en gelatina o aquella pasta de manzana preparada según las recetas italianas del siglo XIV o aquel sorbete al cilantro del siglo XVII me han llegado a entusiasmar tanto como gastrónomo, como el descubrimiento de de Boticelli olvidado en el sótano de una tienda de antigüedades entusiasmaría a un aficionado a la pintura."...

Action research for contexts of change and inequality

Undoubtedly, the past half-century has witnessed an escalation of changes in the social, political, economic and educational structures in many societies around the world. Some have seen change as a challenge and hope while, for many others, it is a source of concern and worry. Some have adopted change with gusto, while for many it is something to be resisted. Some say we live in a world and times with an increasing awareness that “times are changing”, while for some “the more things change, the more they stay the same”.

Who killed fair use? A copyright murder mystery down under

Fair Use Week has been celebrated this week in the United States, with great gusto and enthusiasm. At Harvard Library, Kyle Courtney commented: ‘Fair use is critical and important to innovation, scholarship and research in the United States.’ Kenneth Crews emphasized that ‘the new technological ventures, like other creative pursuits, require fair use and other copyright limitations for experimentation and success.’ Legal director Corynne McSherry of the Electronic Frontier Foundation has highlighted the significance and the importance of the defence of fair use: ‘Fair use provides breathing space in copyright law, making sure that control of the right to copy and distribute doesn’t become control of the right to create and innovate.’ For Techdirt, Mike Masnick has emphasized that fair use is a right – and not an exception or a mere defence. Peter Jaszi and Pat Aufderheide have highlighted the contextual operation of fair use in particular artistic communities. Molly Van Houweling of the Authors Alliance has written about the ecstasy of influence – the role of inspiration and appropriation in all acts of artistic creation. Fair use has been celebrated as a many-splendored legal creation.

Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology

Obesity is heritable and predisposes to many diseases. To understand the genetic basis of obesity better, here we conduct a genome-wide association study and Metabochip meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to define obesity and assess adiposity, in up to 339,224 individuals. This analysis identifies 97 BMI-associated loci (P < 5 × 10−8), 56 of which are novel. Five loci demonstrate clear evidence of several independent association signals, and many loci have significant effects on other metabolic phenotypes. The 97 loci account for ~2.7% of BMI variation, and genome-wide estimates suggest that common variation accounts for >20% of BMI variation. Pathway analyses provide strong support for a role of the central nervous system in obesity susceptibility and implicate new genes and pathways, including those related to synaptic function, glutamate signalling, insulin secretion/action, energy metabolism, lipid biology and adipogenesis.

Hannah Arendt y Walter Benjamin : masa, multitud, populacho

Resumen: Hannah Arendt y Walter Benjamin examinan los fenómenos asociativos de masa, multitud y populacho. Ambos sustraen tales grupos del ámbito político y los sitúan en el ámbito social. En Los orígenes del totalitarismo, Arendt indaga la noción de populacho o mob en el contexto del fenómeno imperialista. Asocia el carácter del populacho con el de la clase burguesa y posiciona ambos grupos en la emergencia de los nacionalismos tribales, ambos antecesores del totalitarismo. La masa es consustancial con los regímenes totalitarios. La apatía cívica, el cinismo y el derrumbe de las costumbres burguesas no alcanzan para explicar el fenómeno totalitario. El hombre masa ha perdido incluso el interés por sí mismo y el gusto por las asociaciones no partidarias. Walter Benjamin reflexiona literariamente los fenómenos de la bohème y de la multitud (crowd), a través de la poesía de Baudelaire y los relatos de Poe. El primer grupo incluye los conspiradores profesionales, cuyo aislamiento y resentimiento los emparenta con los miembros del mob. La falta de pertenencia y la ausencia de vínculos los conduce al activismo, sin un programa de acción. En el contexto de su reflexión sobre el fenómeno de la multitud, Benjamin indaga el impacto de las condiciones de vida moderna en las conductas automatizadas de los individuos. Los comportamientos reflejos, las respuestas automatizadas y los clichés, son las notas que también Arendt encuentra en el hombre “normal” y diluido en la masa, como lo evidenció la conducta de Eichmann durante el proceso en Jerusalén
