La profesionalización del Trabajo Social. Los inicios en Navarra en la segunda mitad del siglo XX

En este trabajo fin de máster el objetivo general es profundizar en el proceso de cambio de la profesionalización del Trabajo Social en Navarra en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. En este sentido, se pretende comprender los por qués de una profesión que se ha ido fraguando, atendiendo y dando respuesta a diversas demandas sociales, muy diferentes en el tiempo. Se atenderá a las respuestas dadas a esas necesidades y al cómo se ha llegado al punto en el que actualmente se encuentra la disciplina. Este aporte es necesario para poder mirar al Trabajo Social desde una perspectiva histórica que permita reflexionar sobre los errores cometidos y a ensalzar los aciertos realizados en el proceso de profesionalización pudiendo trazar un camino adecuado que refuerce la profesión.

La libertad condicional antes y después de la LO 1/2015, de 30 de marzo

En el presente trabajo he efectuado un estudio sobre la libertad condicional en nuestro país. He analizado los importantes cambios que ha sufrido esta institución, que ha pasado de constituir una parte o modalidad del cumplimiento de la pena de prisión para llegar a ser, tras la reforma de la LO 1/2015 de 30 de marzo, una modalidad de suspensión de la ejecución de la pena de prisión. Estudio las distintas modalidades de libertad condicional reguladas, las exigencias establecidas durante el período de libertad condicional y la revocación de la misma y sus consecuencias

Memoria-proyecto Unidad de Hospitalización “A” de cirugía ortopédica y rehabilitación neurológica

Este Trabajo Fin de Máster (TFM) propone la elaboración de una memoria proyecto de la unidad de hospitalización A de un centro monográfico de Cirugía Ortopédica y Traumatología (COT) integrado en un hospital general de nivel terciario. Se trata de una memoria con carácter retrospectivo que abarca desde Enero de 2013 hasta Diciembre de 2015. Una memoria que recoge un análisis de la situación junto con todos los aspectos de la nueva organización de la unidad y con propuestas de mejora futuras. Se realiza un análisis externo del modelo organizativo del sistema sanitario regional, del hospital general, de su centro monográfico de COT y de la unidad la cual está integrada en el mismo. El análisis interno ha supuesto una descripción pormenorizada de la unidad, tanto de espacio físico y recursos materiales como de recursos humanos y actividad asistencial junto con los cambios realizados en este periodo y las necesidades que se objetivan para los próximos años y que formarán el eje principal de la parte del proyecto de la presente memoria. Tras ambos análisis se realiza una matriz DAFO, método de ordenación de la información en cuatro categorías básicas: Debilidad, Amenaza, Fortaleza y Oportunidad, a partir del cual se iniciará un proceso de identificación de propuestas de mejora de cara a plantear acciones que se deberían poner en marcha para aprovechar las oportunidades detectadas y permitieran prepararse contra las amenazas teniendo conciencia de las debilidades y fortalezas.

Con base en la descripción de los aspectos teóricos y técnicos de este organizador del currículo, establecemos una serie de acciones que permiten describir la actuación de los profesores en formación en sus producciones escritas. Identificamos y caracterizamos la dificultad manifestada por los profesores en formación sobre las principales ideas que configuran este procedimiento.

Second Metatarsophalangeal joint Synovitis: Update

In podiatric clinics is very common to find inflamatory process in metatarsophalangeal joint capsule , plantar plate and collateral ligaments damage, but it is not clearly recognized. Many authors hipotetized with joint instability of multiple aetiology and his concomitant evolution in different stages with own joint disease. This pathology has more incidence in second metatarsophalangeal joint than third and others and it is a common etiology of metatarsal pain. Bad biomechanics alters forefoot function and can produce overload in capsular joint, decreasing mobility and getting worse the pathology.

The Sports Overload Injuries of the Lower Extremities from the Biomechanical Point of View

This work studies the major sports overload injuries of the lower extremities from the biomechanical point of view. At the same time, the main paradigms of podiatric biomechanics and the application of new biomechanical theories in the study of these lesions are reviewed. With current legislation, clinical gait biomechanical studies should be carried out in health centres and the only health professionals who can perform them are podiatrists and doctors (because they both can diagnose). Graduates in physical education can carry out studies in the field or in the sports court for the sole purpose of improving athletic performance, but never intended to treat a pathology overload.

Una mirada científico-teórica al quehacer de la Propaganda Indirecta en el medio radiofónico

A partir del triunfo de la Revolución Cubana las acciones de propaganda indirecta devinieron ejercicio profesional dentro de la gama de acciones de los medios de comunicación masivos, asociados a la construcción y afianzamiento de la ideología socialista imperante en nuestro país y al mismo tiempo, aferrados a los preceptos de la comunicación política.Este factor ha influido en que esta tipología comunicativa en la emisora Radio Vitral de Sancti Spíritus constituya un quehacer imprescindible en los mensajes, lo cual se convirtió en punto de partida para, mediante una metodología de corte cualitativo y con los merecidos referentes teóricos, realizar un diagnóstico de cada una de las particularidades, dígase categoría, subcategorías e indicadores de la propaganda indirecta en este medio de comunicación del centro de Cuba, lo cual sirvió de soporte para la validación teórico metodológica de este instrumento evaluador.Asimismo, con los resultados analizados en el diagnóstico de la propaganda indirecta se determinó que se carecía, a diferencia de la creación directa, de herramientas para evaluar la eficacia de los mensajes comunicativos, acordes con las características propias del sistema radiofónico, lo cual devino motivo para proponer una herramienta científica y teórico metodológica que permita evaluar el quehacer propagandístico indirecto en el medio radiofónico, que des las miradas de las mediaciones sociales y la recepción activa garantice su aplicación en cada una de las emisoras cubanas.

Impact of the intrinsic motivation on the academic performance through voluntary assignments: An empirical analysis

The students academic performance is a key aspect for all agents involved in a higher education quality program. However, there is no unanimity on how to measure it. Some professionals choose assessing only cognitive aspects while others lean towards assessing the acquisition of certain skills. The need to train increasingly adapted professionals in order to respond to the companies’ demands and being able to compete internationally in a global labour market requires a kind of training that goes beyond memorizing. Critical and logical thinking are amongst written language skills demanded in the field of Social Sciences. The objective of this study is to empirically demonstrate the impact of voluntary assignments on the academic performance of students. Our hypothesis is that students who complete high quality voluntary assignments are those more motivated and, therefore, those with higher grades. An experiment with students from the "Financial Accounting II" during the academic year of 2012/13 at the Business and Economics School of the UCM was carried out. A series of voluntary assessments involving the preparation of accounting essays were proposed in order to develop skills and competencies as a complement to the lessons included in the curriculum of the subject. At the end of the course, the carrying-out or not of the essay together with its critical, reflective quality and style, were compared. Our findings show a relationship between the voluntarily presented papers of quality and the final grade obtained throughout the course. These results show that the students intrinsic motivation is a key element in their academic performance. On the other hand, the teachers role focuses on being a motivating element through the learning process.

Students perceptions about attention to diversity in Secondary Education Teachers Initial Training

This work aims to analyze the perceptions of students enrolled in the Master's Degree in Secondary Education Teaching, Training and Language Teaching at the University of Jaen, about the initial training received on attention to diversity. A descriptive methodology has been followed using an ad hoc questionnaire as data collection instrument. The results show favorable attitudes of future secondary teachers for diversity, having received an adequate training in curricular and organizational aspects, making it able to fully achieve inclusion of students with special educational needs in the classroom.

Continuous assessment activities - correlation with final exam grades and effect on final grades. A business studies experience

In this paper we analyze the partial grades – of continuous assessment activities including the final exam – and the final grades – computed as a weighted average of partial grades – for nine subjects taught in the third year of Business Administration Degree. On one hand, results show that there is a significant positive correlation between the grades of continuous assessment activities (excluded the final exam) and final exam in seven subjects. On the other hand, overall we find that students’ grades in continuous assessment activities (excluded the final exam) help in the improvement of their final grades (i.e., students’ final grades exceed the grades that they would obtain by only taking into account their final exam grades). The results are consistent when the analysis is carried out over each subject area as well as over the grades of the students who registered for the nine subjects.

Predictors of attitudes toward inclusion of students with special educational needs in future education professionals

One of the main pillars in the development of inclusive schools is the initial teacher training. Before determining if it is necessary to make changes (and of what type) in training programs or curriculum guides related to the attention to diversity and inclusive education, the attitudes of future education professionals in this area should be analyzed. This includes the identification of the relevant predictors of inclusive attitudes. The research reported in this article pursued this objective, doing so with a quantitative survey methodology based on the use of cross-sectional structured data collection and statistical analyses related to the quality of the attitude questionnaire (factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha), descriptive statistics, correlations, hypothesis tests for difference of means, and regression analysis in order to predict attitudes towards inclusion in education. Firstly, the results show that the participants held very positive attitudes toward the inclusion of students with special educational needs. Particularly, older respondents, those with a longer training and, to a lesser extent, women and those who had been in touch with disabled people stood out within this attitude. Secondly, it is evidenced that self-transcendence values ​and, more weakly, contact, function as robust predictors of attitudes of future practitioners towards the inclusion of students with special needs. Some applications for the initial professionalization of educators are suggested in the discussion.

Practicum in Educational Psychology: comparative analysis between areas of knowledge

In this paper we present the process and results of an investigation in which, after reflecting on the concept of Practicum and, specifically, in the Practicum in Educational Psychology degree taught at the University of A Coruña, an assessment is made taking into account the opinion of the students who have studied this matter, as to the relevance that the planned objectives are given and subsequent achievement of these. The results differ considering the area that the teacher who has tutored belongs to. Methodologicaly, it is a descriptive research, survey type, which involved a significant sample of students in their final year of the degree in the year 2012/13 through a questionnaire which validity (Teaching and content) and reliability (internal consistency) have been properly set (judgment of experts and a pilot experience for the calculation of Cronbach's alpha). The results show that the Practicum program has a good development of most of the objectives, especially those related to skills, where the average of the highest rated goals exceed the rating of 4. This suggests clear lines for innovation and improvement in the areas of conceptual and attitudinal level.
