De MARC a CEPAL o cualquier otro formato y viceversa

El propósito de este artículo es práctico: enseñar al usuario de Winisis a reformatear las bases de datos diseñadas e implementadas en cualquier formato, normalizado o no, convirtiéndolas al formato de interés de la unidad de información.Winisis es un paquete que permite utilizar cualquier nomenclatura en la definición de las etiquetas que identifican los campos. Este aspecto es una ventaja y una desventaja porque permite libertad en la selección del formato a utilizar, pero, se generan una gran diversidad de formatos en las unidades de información, dificultando la compatibilidad en los sistemas automatizados de catalogación, la normalización y la transferencia efectiva de la información entre unidades de información.Algunos problemas que enfrentan los bibliotecólogos en su trabajo cotidiano al normalizar la información son por ejemplo:a) la diversidad de bases de datos sin normalización, b) la variación entre formatos, c) los diferentes números, etiquetas y nombres de los campos que integran las bases de datos, e incluso bases de datos creadas con diferentes versiones de Microisis; d) un catálogo automatizado en un formato sin normalización; e) para la participación en una red y exige la reconversión del catálogo al formato común de la red. En algunos casos se ha optado por digitar de nuevo la información en el nuevo formato, sin embargo, ante esta situación, Microisis y Winisis dispone de un recurso denominado "Tabla de Selección de Campos para reformateo".

Independent television production, TV formats and media diversity in China

Beginning around 2003, television studies has seen the growth of interest in the genre of reality shows. However, concentrating on this genre has tended to sideline the even more significant emergence of the program format as a central mode of business and culture in the new television landscape. "Localizing Global TV" redresses this balance, and heralds the emergence of an important, exciting and challenging area of television studies. Topics explored include reality TV, makeover programs, sitcoms, talent shows and fiction serials, as well as broadcaster management policies, production decision chains and audience participation processes. This seminal work will be of considerable interest to media scholars internationally.

Cognitive load and assembly tasks : effect of instructional formats on learning assembly procedures

The study investigated the effect on learning of four different instructional formats used to teach assembly procedures. Cognitive load and spatial information processing theories were used to generate the instructional material. The first group received a physical model to study, the second an isometric drawing, the third an isometric drawing plus a model and the fourth an orthographic drawing. Forty secondary school students were presented with the four different instructional formats and subsequently tested on an assembly task. The findings indicated that there may be evidence to argue that the model format which only required encoding of an already constructed three dimensional representation, caused less extraneous cognitive load compared to the isometric and the orthographic formats. No significant difference was found between the model and the isometric-plus-model formats on all measures because 80% of the students in the isometric-plus-model format chose to use the model format only. The model format also did not differ significantly from other groups in total time taken to complete the assembly, in number of correctly assembled pieces and in time spent on studying the tasks. However, the model group had significantly more correctly completed models and required fewer extra looks than the other groups.
