Activitats per desenvolupar la conci??ncia ling????stica. 'Actividades para desarrollar la conciencia ling????stica'

El art??culo se basa en uno de los principios b??sicos de la idea de autonom??a en el aprendizaje de lenguas en general, el desarrollo de la conciencia ling????stica, que se considera que no se puede disociar del concepto de autonom??a ni del concepto de autenticidad.El aprendiz ha de entender y aceptar su rol como tal, y por esto s??lo es posible si es consciente de lo que hace.La experiencia que se presenta en el presente art??culo lleva a las autoras a pensar que no es tan importante el proporcionar un conjunto de estrat??gias de aprendizaje o t??cnicas de trabajo, como tratar que se conciencie sobre: a) lo que es el lenguaje; b) lo que significa aprender una legngua ( el rol de aprendiz); c) Las estrat??gias de aprendizaje y los recursos a su alcance; d) lo que significa hacer un seguimiento o 'controlar' su proceso de aprendiz..

Consideraciones sobre los recursos audiovisuales y la comprensi??n audiovisual como destreza ling????stica en la ense??anza del espa??ol, lengua extranjera (E/LE)

Los materiales audiovisuales han estado presentes en la vida del hombre desde sus or??genes, tambi??n en el mundo de la ense??anza. La utilizaci??n de los medios audiovisuales como recursos did??cticos para el aprendizaje, agentes de informaci??n y de conocimiento en el ??rea de la educaci??n y en la ense??anza de lenguas extranjeras, particularmente del espa??ol, ha sido una de las funciones m??s usuales y una de las que m??s se ha desarrollado y potencializado ??ltimamente, a trav??s de la llamada sociedad de la informaci??n y del conocimiento. En las aulas, los elementos audiovisuales como fotograf??as, aparatos de audio, im??genes...son unas excelentes herramientas de aprendizaje ya que est?? demostrado que la memoria asimila mejor los contenidos que llegan por varios sentidos a la vez.

Neutrino and antineutrino inclusive charged-current cross section measurements with the MINOS near detector

The energy dependence of the neutrino-iron and antineutrino-iron inclusive charged-current cross sections and their ratio have been measured using a high-statistics sample with the MINOS near detector exposed to the NuMI beam from the main injector at Fermilab. Neutrino and antineutrino fluxes were determined using a low hadronic energy subsample of charged-current events. We report measurements of nu-Fe ((nu) over bar - Fe) cross section in the energy range 3-50 GeV (5-50 GeV) with precision of 2%-8% (3%-9%) and their ratio which is measured with precision 2%-8%. The data set spans the region from low energy, where accurate measurements are sparse, up to the high-energy scaling region where the cross section is well understood.

Search for sterile neutrino mixing in the MINOS long-baseline experiment

A search for depletion of the combined flux of active neutrino species over a 735 km baseline is reported using neutral-current interaction data recorded by the MINOS detectors in the NuMI neutrino beam. Such a depletion is not expected according to conventional interpretations of neutrino oscillation data involving the three known neutrino flavors. A depletion would be a signature of oscillations or decay to postulated noninteracting sterile neutrinos, scenarios not ruled out by existing data. From an exposure of 3.18 x 10(20) protons on target in which neutrinos of energies between similar to 500 MeV and 120 GeV are produced predominantly as nu(mu), the visible energy spectrum of candidate neutral-current reactions in the MINOS far detector is reconstructed. Comparison of this spectrum to that inferred from a similarly selected near-detector sample shows that of the portion of the nu(mu) flux observed to disappear in charged-current interaction data, the fraction that could be converting to a sterile state is less than 52% at 90% confidence level (C. L.). The hypothesis that active neutrinos mix with a single sterile neutrino via oscillations is tested by fitting the data to various models. In the particular four-neutrino models considered, the mixing angles theta(24) and theta(34) are constrained to be less than 11 degrees and 56 degrees at 90% C. L., respectively. The possibility that active neutrinos may decay to sterile neutrinos is also investigated. Pure neutrino decay without oscillations is ruled out at 5.4 standard deviations. For the scenario in which active neutrinos decay into sterile states concurrently with neutrino oscillations, a lower limit is established for the neutrino decay lifetime tau(3)/m(3) > 2.1 x 10(-12) s/eV at 90% C.L.

Observation of muon intensity variations by season with the MINOS far detector

The temperature of the upper atmosphere affects the height of primary cosmic ray interactions and the production of high-energy cosmic ray muons which can be detected deep underground. The MINOS far detector at Soudan, MN, has collected over 67 X 10(6) cosmic ray induced muons. The underground muon rate measured over a period of five years exhibits a 4% peak-to-peak seasonal variation which is highly correlated with the temperature in the upper atmosphere. The coefficient, alpha(T), relating changes in the muon rate to changes in atmospheric temperature was found to be alpha(T) 0: 873 +/- 0: 009(stat) +/- 0.010(syst). Pions and kaons in the primary hadronic interactions of cosmic rays in the atmosphere contribute differently to alpha(T) due to the different masses and lifetimes. This allows the measured value of alpha(T) to be interpreted as a measurement of the K/pi ratio for E(p) greater than or similar to 7 TeV of 0.12(-0.05)(+0.07), consistent with the expectation from collider experiments.

National alert campaign about increased cholesterol: determination of cholesterol levels in 81,262 Brazilians

OBJECTIVE: To determine the levels of total cholesterol in a significant sample of the Brazilian population. METHODS: Blood cholesterol was determined in 81.262 individuals > 18 years old (51% male, 44.7 ± 15.7 years), using Accutrend equipment, in the cities São Paulo, Campinas, Campos do Jordão, São José dos Campos, Santos, Santo André, Ribeirão Preto, Porto Alegre, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Brasília, Salvador and documented in the presence of other risk factors (RF) for coronary artery disease (CAD) (systemic hypertension, CAD in the family, smoking, and diabetes). Participants were classified according to sex, age, and the presence or absence of RF, respectively, as 0 RF, 1 RF and > 2 RF. The percentage of individuals with cholesterol > 200 mg/dL and > 240 mg/dL was evaluated. RESULTS: The prevalence of individuals with 0, 1, and > 2 risk factors was 30% (n = 24,589), 36% (n =29,324), and 34% (n = 27,349) respectively, (P=0.657), and the mean total cholesterol of the population was 199.0 ± 35.0 mg/dL. Cholesterol levels above 200 and 240 mg/dL were found, respectively, in 40% (n = 32,515) and 13% (10.942) of individuals. The greater the number of risk factors the higher the levels of cholesterol (P<0.0001) and the greater the proportion of individuals with cholesterol > 200 mg/dL (P=0.032). No difference existed in the proportion of individuals with cholesterol > 240 mg/dL (P=0.11). CONCLUSION: A great percentage of individuals with cholesterol levels above those recommended to prevent coronary artery disease was found.

Frequência de rupturas agudas de placas e fibroateromas de capa fina em locais de estenose máxima

FUNDAMENTO: Poucos estudos de autópsia relacionam locais de fibroateromas de capa fina (FCF) a locais de ruptura aguda de placas em artérias responsáveis, e locais de estreitamento máximo em artérias não responsáveis. OBJETIVO: O objetivo do presente estudo foi quantificar e localizar a frequência de FCF em relação aos locais de estenose máxima em placas ateroscleróticas. MÉTODOS: Estudamos 88 corações em vítimas de morte súbita devido a um tromo coronariano sobreposta a ruptura aguda da placa. Fibroateromas de capa fina foram definidos como capa fibrosa < 65 mícrons sobrepostos a um núcleo necrótico. O percentual de estreitamento luminal foi determinado nos locais de ruptura de placa e fibroateromas de capa fina. RESULTADOS: O estudo foi composto por 81 homens e 7 mulheres com idade média de 50 anos ± 9 DP. A ruptura da placa se deu no local de estreitamento luminal máximo em 47% das artérias responsáveis. Observou-se a presença de FCFs em 67 corações (83%). Desse número, 49 (73%) demonstravam FCFs na artéria responsável; 17 (25%) apenas na artéria responsável, 32 (48%) na artéria responsável e na artéria não responsável, e 18 (27%) apenas em uma artéria não responsável. Em artérias não responsáveis, os FCFs representaram o local máximo da estenose em 44% das artérias. O local da ruptura aguda foi o local do estreitamento luminal máximo nos vasos envolvidos em 47% de corações de pacientes próximos do óbito devido à ruptura da placa. CONCLUSÃO: Esses dados podem sugerir que o estreitamento luminal não é um marcador confiável para FCF.

4-Second Exercise Test: Reference Values for Ages 18–81 Years

Background: Physiological reflexes modulated primarily by the vagus nerve allow the heart to decelerate and accelerate rapidly after a deep inspiration followed by rapid movement of the limbs. This is the physiological and pharmacologically validated basis for the 4-s exercise test (4sET) used to assess the vagal modulation of cardiac chronotropism. Objective: To present reference data for 4sET in healthy adults. Methods: After applying strict clinical inclusion/exclusion criteria, 1,605 healthy adults (61% men) aged between 18 and 81 years subjected to 4sET were evaluated between 1994 and 2014. Using 4sET, the cardiac vagal index (CVI) was obtained by calculating the ratio between the duration of two RR intervals in the electrocardiogram: 1) after a 4-s rapid and deep breath and immediately before pedaling and 2) at the end of a rapid and resistance-free 4-s pedaling exercise. Results: CVI varied inversely with age (r = -0.33, p < 0.01), and the intercepts and slopes of the linear regressions between CVI and age were similar for men and women (p > 0.05). Considering the heteroscedasticity and the asymmetry of the distribution of the CVI values according to age, we chose to express the reference values in percentiles for eight age groups (years): 18–30, 31–40, 41–45, 46–50, 51–55, 56–60, 61–65, and 66+, obtaining progressively lower median CVI values ranging from 1.63 to 1.24. Conclusion: The availability of CVI percentiles for different age groups should promote the clinical use of 4sET, which is a simple and safe procedure for the evaluation of vagal modulation of cardiac chronotropism.
