Competencias y metodologías innovadoras para la educación digital

La pandemia ha dado un gran protagonismo a lo que llamamos la educación online o educación a distancia digital. La llamada Sociedad de la Información y del Conocimiento se ha encontrado ante un mayúsculo reto para el cual, como ya ha pasado en otros momentos de la historia, la educación a distancia ha sido una tabla de salvación. La imprevista situación de no poder asistir a las instituciones educativas de forma física ha supuesto un reto para muchos docentes que nunca habían experimentado con la docencia online o con tecnología en las aulas. En este artículo se analiza el tipo de docencia que se generó en este período de tiempo, las distintas metodologías usadas durante la pandemia, y los niveles de competencia digital del profesorado universitario para hacer frente a la asunción de modelos didácticos más innovadores. Como resultado se observa que despuntan metodologías más activas, apoyadas por tecnologías a veces clásicas y a veces emergentes, que van más allá de la “zoomificación” de lecciones, gestionando el tiempo y los espacios de forma más creativa y eficiente. Profesorado e instituciones han entendido que la educación digital necesita el desarrollo de este tipo de metodologías, pero para ello se hace necesario el incremento de los niveles de competencia digital del profesorado, que redunde en un mejor uso didáctico de las tecnologías, dispositivos y herramientas que tienen a su alcance.
BEEKEEPING AROUND UDZUNGWA MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK IN KILOMBERO DISTRICT, TANZANIA. Katani1, J.Z. and Ndelolia2, D

The study assessed the practices, productivity and contribution of beekeeping to household income of communities adjacent to UMNP in Kilombero District. Data were collected through administration of questionnaires to households practicing beekeeping and interview of key informants. Means and percentages were calculated for practices, productivity and income. The study revealed that more than 30% of respondents undertake beekeeping in order to earn income. Traditional beehives were mostly used by respondents in Ifakara (46%) and Kidatu (62%) divisions while many (67%) respondents in Mang ula division used both modern and traditional beehives. Lack of equipment and extension services were mentioned as the main challenges to beekeeping. Many respondents in Ifakara and Mang ula divisions admitted that modern beehives have double productivity of bee products compared to traditional beehives. Contribution of beekeeping to household income is generally low in all divisions of Ifakara (4%), Mang ula (13%) and Kidatu (8%) as compared to farming, petty trade and formal employment. It was concluded that the contribution of beekeeping to household income is low in the study area. Increased productivity could increase the contribution to household income. This could be through ensuring availability of extension services, modern beehives and equipment for harvesting and packaging materials.
Influences of Topographic Shadows on the Thermal and Hydrological Processes in a Cold Region Mountainous Watershed in Northwest China

The solar radiation incident in a mountainous area with a complex terrain has a strong spatial heterogeneity due to the variations in slope orientation (self‐shading) and shadows cast by surrounding topography agents (topographic shading). Although slope self‐shading has been well studied and considered in most land surface and hydrological models, topographic shading is usually ignored, and its influence on the thermal and hydrological processes in a cold mountainous area remains unclear. In this study, a topographic solar radiation algorithm with consideration for both slope self‐shading and topographic shadows has been implemented and incorporated into a distributed hydrological model with physically based descriptions for the energy balance. A promising model performance was achieved according to a vigorous evaluation. In a control model without considering the topographic shadows, the simulated solar radiation incident in the study area was about 14.3 W/m2 higher on average, which in turn led to a higher simulated annual mean ground temperature at 4 m (by 0.41 °C) and evapotranspiration (by 16.1 mm/a), and a smaller permafrost extent (reduced by about 8%), as well as smaller maximal snow depth and shorter snow duration. Although the simulation was not significantly improved for discharge hydrograph in the base model, higher river runoff peaks and an increased runoff depth were obtained. In areas with a rugged terrain and deep valleys, the influences of topographic shadows would even be stronger in reality than the presented results, which cannot be ignored in the simulation of the thermal and hydrological processes, especially in a refined model.
Sense of coherence in young adults: An integrative review Sentido

Introduction: The salutogenic theory presents a different approach for the study of health, which is the movement that takes towards the extreme ends in the line of the well-being-discomfort continuum. This theory has two key concepts: sense of consistency and general resources of resistance. The sense of coherence is considered useful in coping and in adapting to the special needs of the different stages of life. Objective: Identify the role of sense of coherence and influencing factors in young adults. Methodology: Revisão integrativa, com metodologia de 6 etapas, segundo Botelho, Cunha, Macedo, a busca de artigos foi realizada nas bases de dados WOS, SCOPUS, PubMed e SciELO, durante o mês de julho de 2020, utilizando os descritores Sense of coherence OR Salutogenesis AND Young adult. Of the 1161 potential articles found, 11 were selected. Results: A strong sense of coherence was evidenced in young adults, which was influenced by culture, sex, educational level, economic income, and social support. Conclusion: The sense of coherence has a protective role in young adults, given the fact that it reduces the impact of stressful events. The evidence analyzed regarding the associated factors is not conclusive, therefore, further studies with methodological rigor are required.
Nuclear imaging in the field of dentistry: a review -

Nuclear medicine(NM) imaging has played a vital role in the early diagnosis of disease in the recent decades. Although in the present timeÂ’s conventional radiographs, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), Computed Tomography (CT), and other alike imaging modalities are being routinely used for diagnosis and treatment purposes in the head and neck region, NM has been in use only for certain oral and maxillofacial pathologies. NM is an impressive and influential imaging means which relies on metabolic and other physiological processes of tissues revealing accurate functional and biochemical aspects of tissues and help in precise diagnosis. Radionuclide imaging involves the use radioactive isotopes that emit gamma (γ) rays. The γ rays thus emitted are detected by a gamma camera and different planar images are formed and shows the location of the radionuclides in the body. The technique provides an early marker of the disease after allowing the measurement of tissue function in vivo. Even though NM is not used on day to day basis in the field of dentistry, the dental professional must acquire the requisite information about its various uses. This review is an attempt at making a dental professional familiar with the functioning of NM imaging in the oral and maxillofacial region.
Massive Transfusion

Massive Transfusion is a part of Damage Control Resuscitation. The aim of transfusion therapy is to restore oxygen delivery to poorly perfused tissues and to treat the acute coagulopathy of trauma. The severity and complexity of modern injuries have led to the use of swift, protocol-driven care with the use of ‘Shock Packs’ and management of metabolic complications. The pro- active treatment of the coagulopathy has been termed Haemostatic Resuscitation. The delivery of this transfusion capability has required an increasingly sophisticated logistic and laboratory response. New operational capabilities have included cold chain solutions; laboratory management information systems; platelet apheresis and ROTEM®. This investment in the massive transfusion capability has delivered rapid resuscitation. It has also enabled clinicians to direct individualised transfusion support following initial resuscitation i.e. goal directed therapy. Future technical solutions should further support the pre- hospital delivery of transfusion while addressing the logistic tail. However, the key to success is the knowledge and skills of frontline staff to deliver safe and appropriate blood transfusion.
Sources and Formation Processes of Short-Chain Saturated Diacids (C2–C4) in Inhalable Particles (PM10) from Huangshi City, Central China

PM10 samples were collected from Huangshi (HS) city, Central China during April 2012 to March 2013, and were analyzed for short-chain saturated dicarboxylic acids (diacids) using a capillary gas chromatograph (GC). We found that oxalic acid (C2, 318 ± 104 ng·m−3) was the most abundant diacid species, followed by malonic acid (C3, 25.4 ± 9.11 ng·m−3) and succinic acid (C4, 2.09 ± 0.52 ng·m−3). The concentrations of C2 and C4 diacids were highest in winter, followed by summer and spring, and lowest in autumn. C3 diacid was decreased in the order of summer > winter > autumn > spring. Further, the seasonal variations of WSOC (water-soluble organic carbon)- and OC (organic carbon)-normalized diacid concentrations were similar to those of diacid concentrations, suggesting that both primary emission and secondary production are important sources for diacids in Huangshi (HS) aerosols. Strong correlations were found among C2 diacid and the three ions SO42−, NO3−, and NH4+ in summer and winter, suggesting that the species could undergo a similar secondary oxidation processing. C2 had good correlation with K+ in summer and autumn, which indicates an enhanced contribution of combustion sources for C2 diacid. Moreover, according to the ratio of C2/K+, we can conclude that C2 diacid should be formed by a secondary reaction of biomass combustion in HS aerosols, especially in summer and autumn. The ratios of C2/C4 and C3/C4 were compared with those reported in other sites, and the results suggest that HS aerosols should be more photochemically aged than at other urban areas. Principal component analysis of diacids and selected water-soluble inorganic ions over four seasons suggests that HS aerosols are influenced not only from primary emission, but also from secondary reaction. According to the linear relation between C2 and C3 diacids, the results indicate that C2 diacid is formed from the oxidation of hydrocarbon compounds in spring, while it is from the oxidation of C3 and C4 diacids in summer, autumn, and winter.
A Quasi-Experimental Estimate of the Impact of Financial Aid on College-Going

Although state and federal governments heavily subsidize the price of college, estimates of the impact of these subsidies on college enrollment have not been well-identified. I use a regression discontinuity design to study the impact of the CalGrant program in California on college going. Eligibility requires students to meet minimum thresholds on three characteristics: income, assets and high school Grade Point Average. Because there are several dimensions of eligibility, the analysis allows for specification tests, estimating any discontinuities along a given dimension of eligibility, dependent upon whether one satisfied the other two dimensions of eligibility. The paper uses a novel data collection strategy to measure subsequent college enrollment for 150,000 financial aid applicants in 1998 and 1999. The results suggest large impacts (3 to 4 percentage points) of grant eligibility on college enrollment among financial aid applicants, with larger impacts on the choice of private four-year colleges in California.
DAMPAK KETIMPANGAN GENDER TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN EKONOMI DI INDONESIA

Tidak ada satu wilayah pun di negara dunia ketiga dimana perempuan telah menikmati kesetaraan yang sama dalam hak-hak hukum, sosial dan ekonomi (United Nation Development Programme, 2010). Ketimpangan gender antara lain terjadi di pendidikan, pekerjaan, akses atas sumber daya, ekonomi, kekuasaan, dan partisipasi politik. Perempuan menanggung beban paling berat akibat ketimpangan yang terjadi, namun pada dasarnya ketimpangan itu merugikan semua orang dan akhirnya merugikan perekonomian suatu negara. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis ketimpangan gender di Indonesia dengan menggunakan Indeks Pembangunan Gender (IPG) dan Indeks Pembangunan Manusia (IPM). Hasil analisis deskriptif menunjukkan bahwa ada ketimpangan gender, terlihat dari masih ada jarak antara IPM dan IPG. Kata kunci: ketimpangan gender, indeks ketimpangan gender (IPG), indeks pembangunan manusia (IPM).
Valuing Life as an Asset, as a Statistic and at Gunpoint

The Human Capital (HK) and Statistical Life Values (VSL) differ sharply in their empirical pricing of a human life and lack a common theoretical background to justify these differences. We first contribute to the theory and measurement of life value by providing a unified framework to formally define and relate the Hicksian willingness to pay (WTP) to avoid changes in death risks, the HK and the VSL. Second, we use this setting to introduce an alternative life value calculated at Gunpoint (GPV), i.e. the WTP to avoid certain, instantaneous death. Third, we associate a flexible human capital model to the common framework to characterize the WTP and the three life valuations in closed-form. Fourth, our structural estimates of these solutions yield mean life values of 8.35 M$ (VSL), 421 K$ (HK) and 447 K$ (GPV). We con firm that the strong curvature of the WTP and the linear projection hypothesis of the VSL explain why the latter is much larger than other values.

Large-eddy Simulation of Turbulent Boundary Layers with Spatially Varying Roughness

This dissertation addresses high Reynolds number turbulent boundary layers flows with different inhomogeneous surface roughness distributions using large eddy simulations. The stretched vortex subgrid scale model for the outer flow LES is coupled with a virtual-wall model for the friction velocity with a correction accounting for local roughness effects. A semi-empirical model that describes a fully developed rough-walled turbulent boundary layer with sand-grain roughness length-scale ks = αx that varies linearly with streamwise distance is first developed, with α a dimensionless constant. For large Rex and a free-stream velocity U∞ ~ xm, a simple log-wake model of the local turbulent mean-velocity profile is used that contains a standard mean-velocity correction for the asymptotic, fully rough regime. A two parameter (α; m) family of solutions is obtained for which U∞+ (or equivalently Cf) and boundary-layer measures can be calculated. These correspond to perfectly self-similar boundary-layer growth in the streamwise direction with similarity variable z/ks where z is the wall-normal co-ordinate. Results over a range of α are discussed for cases including the zero-pressure gradient (m = 0) and sink-flow (m = -1) boundary layers. Model trends are supported by high Re wall-modeled LES. Linear streamwise growth of boundary layer measures is confirmed, while for each α, mean-velocity profiles and streamwise turbulent stresses are shown to collapse against z/(αx). Inner scaled velocity defects are shown to collapse against z/Δ, where Δ is the Rotta-Clauser parameter. The present results suggest that these flows may be interpreted as the fully-rough limit for boundary layers in the presence of small-scale, linear roughness. Next, an LES study of a flat-plate turbulent boundary layer at high Re under nonequilibrium flow conditions due to the presence of abrupt changes in surface roughness is presented. Two specific cases, smooth-rough (SR) and rough-smooth (RS) transition are examined in detail. Streamwise developing velocity and turbulent stress profiles are considered and sharp departures from equilibrium flow properties with subsequent relaxation are shown downstream. Relaxation trends are studied using integral parameters and higher-order mean flow statistics with emphasis on Reτ and ks+ dependence. Results are compared with RS experiments at matched Reτ, and show good agreement in terms of recovery rates. Finally, the case of static, impulsive wall-roughness in flows at high Re is addressed using the same LES framework. The initial perturbation from smooth-to-rough appears to dominate the flow behaviour with the length of the impulsive patch showing little effect on recovery rates at matched Reτ and ks+. The resulting trends show good agreement with low Re experiments and support the wall-modeled LES framework as a suitable method for analysing high Re flows in practical applications.
17. Anthropogenic intensification of southern African flash droughts as exemplified by the 2015/16 season

Introduction. Droughts are mainly driven by natural climate variability. They usually evolve slowly and persist for a few months to decades. Anthropogenic climate change, however, not only increases the likeli‐ hood of local and regional droughts, but also alters their characteristics (Sheffield and Wood 2008; Dai 2013; Trenberth et al. 2014). For instance, the soil moisture drought during growing seasons is often accompanied by heat waves, resulting in a type of drought that has a rapid onset and short duration (from a few days to 1–2 months), but high intensity and devastating impacts, which is recently termed “flash drought” (Hoerling et al. 2014; Mo and Letten‐ maier 2015; Yuan et al. 2015; Wang et al. 2016). During November–April of 2015/16, most parts of southern Africa (SA; 10°–40°E, 10°–35°S) experienced a rainy season–long drought. Within the seasonal drought, heat waves occurred suddenly, which caused a severe flash drought characterized by soil moisture deficit and heat waves at the beginning of December. The flash drought was then terminated by a rainfall event in early January. The South African Weather Service announced that 32 daily temperature records were broken in South Africa with the highest reaching 45°C. Millions of people were affected by famine, dis‐ ease, and water shortages. The SA drought is basically associated with the 2015/16 strong El Niño (Nicholson and Entekhabi 1986; Reason and Jagadheesha 2005; Yuan et al. 2013; Ratnam et al. 2014; Hoell et al. 2015) and possibly altered by Indian Ocean sea surface tem‐ perature variability (Reason 2001; Washington and Preston 2006; Manatsa et al. 2011; Hoell et al. 2016), but the warming climate may also play an important role. This study will investigate the 2015/16 SA flash drought in the context of a changing climate during 1948–2016, and detect the anthropogenic influences.
Reliability of measuring various contractile functions of finger flexors of men of various ages

The aim of the research is to determine the reliability of testing various contractile functions of a male hand based on motoric and functional dominance and age. The examinee takes a seat with their arm extended or mildly flexed in a mildly abducted position. For the measuring purposes, dynamometric probe with isometric straining conditions fixed to a special construction was used. The 'Isometrics' (ver. 3.1.1) was used and frequency of data selection was realized on the level of 500 Hz. The sample includes 269 male examinees aged from 14.0 to 69.9. The results of descriptive statistics have shown that in relation to the tested sample for the non-dominant hand, values for maximum force (Fmax) range from 462.8 to 529.0 N, for explosive force (RFDmax) the range is from 1621.6 to 1972.8 N/s and for muscular force impulse (ImpF50%max) from 8203.9 to 15552.3 Ns, while Fmax values the dominant hand ranges from 478.1 to 566.2 N, for RFDmax it ranges from 1742.6 to 2119.0 N/s and for ImpF50%max 9516.7 to 16845.1 Ns. The results have shown that it is reliable to measure all three examined contractile hand characteristics where by ICC ranges from 0.938 to 0.977 for Fmax, from 0.903 to 0.971 for RFDmaxand from 0.747 to 0.943 for ImpF50%max. The second try as the better result should be considered the representational value for Fmaxand RFDmaxvariables, regardless of the hand dominance or age group. While for the variable ImpF50%max, in the age groups from 35.0 to 49.9 and from 50.0 to 69.9, the first tested try for both hands should be considered, in 14.0 to 19.9 years group the second try should be taken into consideration, and in 20.0 to 34.9 age range, the better result of the non-dominant hand is the first try, and of the dominant is the second try.
