Authors: Noviani Wulan , Musharyanti Lisa , Pratama Rangga Putera Anugerah
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND: Professional identity is the primary goal of nursing education institutions that shaped professional nurse’s identity. However, final-year bachelor nursing students’ perception and experience of professional identity remain limited to explore. AIM: This study aims to analyze final-year bachelor nursing students’ perception and experience toward professional identity in Indonesia. METHODS: A descriptive qualitative study with a drawing exercise was conducted with a convenience sample of final-year bachelor nursing students to explore how they viewed the nursing profession. Thirteen nursing students were recruited from four academic hospitals of Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. Data were analyzed thematically using Colaizzi methods and NVivo 12 Plus. RESULTS: The analysis showed five themes identified, namely, “Islamic nurse is my identity,” “I follow Islamic sharia,” “I internalize Islamic values,” “I practice professional roles,” and “I obey professional regulation.” CONCLUSION: Nursing students perceived the identity of Islamic nurses into their identity. Developing a strong professional identity is essential for the students to enhance a sense of belonging and career choice in the nursing profession.

Authors: Sari Mutiara Indah , Rusdiana Rusdiana , Daulay Milahayati
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic syndrome caused by insulin secretion abnormalities, insulin action, or both. Gene polymorphism is a risk factor of T2DM.
AIM: This study aims to see the role of Apa-I Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism on T2DM.
METHODS: This study was an analytic observational with a case–control approach, consisting of 70 T2DM patients and 70 healthy subjects as a control. Genotyping of the Apa-I Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism was performed using the polymerase chain reactions-restriction fragment length polymorphisms method. The role of the Apa-I Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism and the risk of T2DM were analyzed using the Chi-square test.
RESULTS: The results showed that there was a significant association between codominant (TT genotype); dominant; recessive models of the Apa-I Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism with the risk of T2DM (p < 0.05; odds ratio [OR] = 0.204, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.063–0.662; OR = 0.337, 95% CI = 0.113–1.004; OR = 0.367, 95% CI = 0.180–0.747, respectively), but not in codominant (GT genotype) and over-dominant models (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: This study shows a role of the codominant (TT genotype); dominant; recessive models of the Apa-I Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism on T2DM, but not in codominant (GT genotype) and over-dominant models.
Efficacof Cinnamon Extract (Cinnamomum burmannii) as Supplementation in Lir-psychotic-induced Rats through Oxidative Stress Regulation in Neuronal Cells
Authors: Hidayat Rachmat , Wulandari Patricia , Marchira Carla Raymondalexas , Pratiti Budi
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND: Cinnamon is a plant that is often found in Indonesia and is rich in secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, phenols, tannins, and alkaloids. Flavonoids and phenols are very potential as natural antioxidants to suppress various oxidant activities, including oxidant activity that occurs in the hippocampus, which is the underlying psychotic disorder.
AIM: This study was aimed to explore the potential of cinnamon extract (CE) on psychotic symptoms.
METHODS: Cinnamon simplicia was obtained from the Research and Testing Center for Traditional Medicine, Tawangmangu, Central Java, Indonesia. The extraction of cinnamon was carried out using the maceration method. The animals were subjected to lir-psychotic induction by intraperitoneal injection with ketamine (30 mg/kg BW) for 5 days. The rats were grouped into six groups; each group contained five animals; normal control group, a lir-psychotic group without treatment, lir-psychotic group with haloperidol, lir-psychotic with CE (25 mg/kg BW, 50 mg/kg BW, and 100 mg/kg BW). Oxidative stress in experimental animals was measured by evaluating malondialdehyde (MDA) expression in the brain tissue using immunohistochemical tests.
RESULTS: There were differences in clinical symptoms of psychotic disorder in the animal model between before intervention with CE supplementation and after the intervention. The higher the CE dose administered, the better the improvement in psychotic symptoms seen in the psychotic-induced rats. CE supplementation could reduce MDA expression in the hippocampus. This suggests that there was an optimal significance of cinnamon supplementation in reducing oxidative stress from the hippocampus.
CONCLUSION: CE was effective in improving psychotic symptoms in lir-psychotic rats through regulation of oxidative stress in neuronal cells.

Published: May 2021

Developing engineering students whose ability to work and make a real contribution to the development of technology can be done not only after they have graduated from college but also when they are still in college. One of the strategies is by implementing project-based learning with the project based on the potential of the student's region. This study aims to reveal students’ perceptions of learning and soft skills acquisition toward the implementation of the strategy to answer whether the project is effective to implement. This study was conducted on fifty-one Indonesian college students who took Mechanical Drawing course. It belongs to a one-shot case study with mixed-method approach. The result shows that the project based on the potential of the student’s region is effective to raise their perception of motivation, interest, real-world, very beneficial, learning more lecture and enjoyable so that they learn more actively and provide more time to study. It also develops students’ soft skills, including teamwork, project management, communication, and interpersonal skills. The results may have pedagogical implications in improving learning quality in Mechanical Drawing course by enriching project references used in implementing project-based learning. Furthermore, the project given can be a solution in developing the potential of the students’ regions.
Le geste et la couleur
Authors: Dubois Arnaud
Published: May 2021

Cet article vise à introduire le volet technique de l’anthropologie de la couleur que l’on peut formuler des travaux d’André Leroi-Gourhan. À partir de l’étude des idées que l’auteur développe dans Évolution et techniques (1943 et 1945), nous verrons que, pour Leroi-Gourhan, la couleur n’est ni un phénomène, ni une sensation psychophysiologique. La couleur est d’abord une matière qui se fabrique et qui s’inscrit à l’intérieur de différentes «  techniques de fabrication  » que produisent les sociétés. Leroi-Gourhan inscrit l’ethnographie de la couleur à l’intérieur de la culture matérielle et, par ce geste, déplace l’anthropologie de la couleur de l’anthropologie cognitive vers l’anthropologie des techniques. Nous montrerons que ce déplacement produit une bifurcation épistémologique à l’intérieur du champ de l’ethnographie de la couleur.

Parents voyageurs. Croisières familiales au long cours
Authors: Gaugue Anne
Published: May 2021

Cet article porte sur la géographie des parents voyageurs à travers l’exemple des plaisanciers au long cours, ceux qui durant au moins une année et souvent bien davantage ont navigué d’escale en escale avec leurs enfants. L’ouverture sur le monde et le repli sur la famille sont les principales motivations avancées par les parents pour expliquer leur souhait de naviguer avec leurs enfants. Au cours de l’itinérance, les parents plaisanciers adaptent le choix des lieux d’escales et leur durée à ce qu’ils considèrent comme essentiel pour leurs enfants : leur scolarité et la possibilité d’être en contact avec d’autres enfants de leur âge. Des espaces océaniques aux ilots tropicaux, l’encadrement parental varie selon les lieux fréquentés.

Authors: Manzoni Glauber Nicola , Milani Bruno
Published: May 2021

Este trabalho visa realizar uma análise dos retornos das Entidades Fechadas de Previdência Complementar (EFPC), no período entre 2010 e 2017. Especificamente, buscou-se identificar em quais tipos de ativos financeiros as EFPC investem seus recursos e a partir disso analisar os diferentes planos de previdência oferecidos por elas. As estimações foram realizadas através de regressões lineares stepwise robustas à heterocedasticidade, o que possibilitou verificar que as EFPC investem a maior parte de seus recursos em fundos e ativos de renda fixa e apenas uma pequena parte em renda variável. Também se verificou que as EFPC aplicaram seus recursos nos investimentos atrelados aos benchmarks que possuem os melhores Índices de Sharpe, ou seja, naqueles que apresentam melhor performance. Quanto aos diferentes tipos de planos oferecidos pelas EFPC, foi possível observar que os de Contribuição Definida apresentam o menor desvio padrão e o maior Índice de Sharpe. A única variável significativa para explicar seus retornos é o Ibovespa, com coeficiente de apenas 0,14, indicando que sua carteira é rentável e diversificada. Já os planos de Benefício Definido têm seus retornos atrelados majoritariamente ao CDI e apresentaram o menor Índice de Sharpe.

Authors: Guimarães Amanda Ferreira , Santos Rejane Heloise dos , Ferreira Marcia Regina , Borges William Antonio
Published: May 2021

O estudo do empreendedorismo tem se concentrado em visões economicistas. Abordagens alternativas constituem em uma estratégia para leituras sob uma perspectiva crítica. O objetivo da presente pesquisa, qualitativa, consiste em apresentar, por meio de uma discussão bibliográfica, uma reflexão sobre empreendedorismo, alternativa ao mainstream econômico, tendo como base o campo da Administração. Para tanto, a discussão envolve um diálogo com cinco trabalhos que qualificaram críticas às visões economicistas no âmbito do empreededorismo. Os resultados apontam que no âmbito do empreendedorismo, apenas o ferramental técnico-científico não é suficiente para formar empreendedores ou desenvolver a ação empreendedora. São necessários esforços para uma educação filosófica, almejando com que o sujeito amplie sua consciência de sua condição de disseminador de sentido e significado no mundo, compreendendo a importância de reconhecer o empreendedorismo como um fenômeno a ser pesquisado e discutido de forma mais ampla. Conclui-se que falar de empreendedorismo sob as lentes de apenas uma das perspectivas teóricas consiste em uma inconsistência.

Objectives: To improve the appropriateness in the autoantibody test requests for proper diagnosis of systemic rheumatic autoimmune diseases, celiac disease and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitides. Methodology: Review of recommendations proposed by the Study Group in Autoimmunology (GDS-AI) of the Italian Society of Clinical Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (SIPMeL) and the European Society For Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHaN) Results: This document aims to bring to the attention of general practitioners the recommendations proposed by National and International study group to improve the appropriateness in the autoantibody test requests expecially in sytemic autoimmune and celiac disease. Conclusions: Autoimmunity is a specialistic laboratory area where the costs are extremely high compared to other diagnostics: it would therefore be very helpful and economically advantageous to align the clinicians on appropriate requests and the laboratory on useful diagnostics. In Autoimmunology, diagnostic appropriateness remains a complex and debated topic from the management, professional and economic point of view.

Objective: The aim is to perform a preliminary testing about the presence of anti-COVID-19 IgM and IgG in a short series of healthcare workers and patients at SS. Antonio e Biagio e Cesare Arrigo Hospital, in Alessandria. Methods: Healthcare workers voluntarily agreed to perform the analysis. For patients, serological test was performed at clinician’s discretion. Detection of anti-COVID-19 IgM and IgG was performed separately by use ELISA assay. In order to perform a comparison age, sex, onset symptoms, RT-PCR result were collected. Results: Serological findings showed that most people with positive SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR testing developed anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG 14 days after the date of rhinopharyngeal swab and that anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG detection was also observed in patients with negative RT-PCR. No anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgM was found. Conclusions: Serological testing may be useful to confirm a previous contact with SARS-CoV-2, but it cannot be used in diagnostics. They need further evidence on its performance and operational utility. At the current state of technological evolution, SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibodies serological tests can be used to supplement the viral RNA detenction by use RT-PCR.

Authors: Maulinda Fajar , Handayani Dwini , Wongkaren Turro S.
Published: May 2021

Purpose: This study investigated the effect of a woman's age at first marriage (AFM) on the incidence of labor complications and babies with low birth weight (LBW).Methods: This study used data from the 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) on women aged 15~49 who gave birth to their first child within the previous 5 years. Data analysis was conducted using binary logistic regression for labor complications and the binomial probit method for the incidence of LBW.Results: The analysis showed that AFM affected the likelihood of childbirth complications and LBW babies. An increase in AFM tended to reduce the risk of childbirth complications, although poor economic conditions increased the risk of complications in mothers with a higher AFM. In addition, a low or high AFM increased the chances of delivering a baby with LBW.Conclusion: A low AFM was associated with an increased likelihood of women experiencing birth complications when delivering their first child and delivering babies with LBW, underscoring the importance of delaying childbirth until a more mature age.

Published: May 2021

Purpose: This study examined the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in South Korean children and adolescents by gender and age and analyzed gender-specific factors associated with MetS.Methods: This study used data on children aged 10~18 from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2010 to 2015. Analyses included descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, the x2 test, and univariate logistic regression analysis (p<.050).Results: The prevalence of MetS was 4.8% in boys and 3.4% in girls. The prevalence was higher in girls up to the age of 12, but higher in boys who were 13 or older. Abdominal obesity was frequent in girls, whereas low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and elevated blood pressure were more common in boys. Higher body mass index, waist-to-height ratio, waist circumference, blood pressure, triglycerides, HDL-C, perceived "fat" body shape, and weight loss efforts were associated with MetS in both genders. Increasing age, having one meal per day, and weight maintenance were associated factors unique to boys. Fasting plasma glucose, familial medical history of low HDL-C, and perceived "thin" body shape were associated factors in girls.Conclusion: Gender and age differences should be considered in the risk assessment and prevention of MetS.

Authors: Song Rhayun , Park Moonkyoung
Published: May 2021

Purpose: This meta-analysis aimed to analyze the effects of smoking prevention programs for young adolescents at early smoking stages to identify the appropriate characteristics of prevention programs for this population.Methods: Searches of health-related databases and Google Scholar were conducted, and 23 randomized studies were included in the analysis. The main outcome variable was smoking behavior. The analysis was conducted using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software (version 3.0).Results: Smoking prevention programs significantly reduced smoking behaviors (OR=0.85, 95% CI=0.77~0.93). School-based programs (OR=0.79, 95% CI=0.75~0.83), programs by trained teachers or educators (OR=0.77, 95% CI=0.71~0.83), high-intensity programs (OR=0.82, 95% CI=0.75~0.91), and programs in an in-school setting (OR=0.82, 95% CI=0.74~0.90) had the most significant effect on reducing smoking behavior.Conclusion: For young adolescents, smoking prevention programs are most effective when they are school-based or highintensity programs, and when conducted by teachers or educators with proper training. Further studies are required since there was insufficient research to explore the effect of web-based programs or family-centered programs on adolescent smokers.

Pediatric Scrub Typhus Complicated by Meningitis
Authors: Chou Ya-Ling , Hsieh Kao-Hsian , Tien Chiung-Hsi , Wang Chih-Chien , Lo Wen-Tsung
Published: May 2021

Scrub typhus is caused by the intracellular pathogen Orientia tsutsugamushi, which is transmitted to humans by infected chigger mites. The disease causes a febrile illness accompanied by regional or generalized lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, as well as nonspecific manifestations. Scrub typhus is an important cause of febrile disease in South and East Asia and in the Western Pacific, and can cause severe complications including meningoencephalitis and pneumonitis. Herein, we report a case of scrub typhus accompanied by meningitis, which was definitively diagnosed by serology assay, in a 4-year-old girl who presented with prolonged fever, skin rash, cough, general weakness, and poor appetite. Scrub typhus should be considered in the differential diagnosis when evaluating patients who present with nonspecific febrile illness or meningitis in areas that are endemic for O. tsutsugamushi.

Let

\mathrm{F}/\mathrm{F}_{\mathsf{o}}

be a quadratic extension of non-archimedean locally compact fields of odd residual characteristic and

\sigma

be its non-trivial automorphism. We show that any

\sigma

-self-dual cuspidal representation of

\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathrm{F})

contains a

\sigma

-self-dual Bushnell–Kutzko type. Using such a type, we construct an explicit test vector for Flicker's local Asai L-function of a

\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathrm{F}_\mathsf{o})

-distinguished cuspidal representation and compute the associated Asai root number. Finally, by using global methods, we compare this root number to Langlands–Shahidi's local Asai root number, and more generally we compare the corresponding epsilon factors for any cuspidal representation.
Fifteen phase transmission line protection using daubechies-4 wavelet transform
Authors: Kapoor Gaurav
Published: May 2021

In this work, the daubechies-4 wavelet transform (Db4WT) is utilized for fault detection and faulted phase recognition in a fifteen phase transmission  line (FPTL). The daubechies-4 wavelet transform has been widely investigated using the MATLAB model of a 765 kV, 200 km long fifteen phase  transmission line. The fifteen phase fault currents measured by the current measurements blocks connected at the bus-1 of the fifteen phase  transmission line are entered to the wavelet transform algorithm. The first level detail coefficients of the fifteen phase currents are then calculated.  The fault detection is carried out with great correctness.

Keywords: fault detection, faulty phase recognition, fifteen phase transmission line protection, wavelet transform.
Measuring capability of a binomial process
Authors: Pal Surajit , Gauri Susanta Kumar
Published: May 2021

Many product characteristics are qualitative in nature, e.g. colour, brightness, surface finish etc. The manufacturing process of such products is usually described in terms of fraction nonconforming or conforming which is assumed to follow binomial distribution. Measuring capability of a binomial process implies assessing to what extent the fraction nonconforming or conforming in the continuous stream of lots conform to the specification limits. The Cp or Cpl of a binomial process can be estimated using several approaches. However, these approaches generally give widely varying assessment about the capability of a given binomial process. Consequently, a user of the index may inadvertently be led to erroneous decision making based on an inaccurate estimate of the index. In this paper, a procedure is proposed for assessing accuracies of estimates of Cpu or Cpl obtained by different methods. Subsequently, the best method for evaluating capability of a binomial process is identified based on analysis of multiple case studies, and also the methods giving inaccurate estimates are highlighted.

Keywords: Process capability index, binomial process, fraction nonconforming, nonconforming lot (NL), predicted NL%, prediction error

Authors: Vũ Lưu Hớn
Published: May 2021

Bài viết nghiên cứu phong cách học tập tiếng Trung Quốc của sinh viên Khoa Tiếng Trung, Trường Đại học Sư phạm Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Trên cơ sở lí thuyết về phong cách học tập của Reid (1984), chúng tôi tiến hành khảo sát bằng bảng hỏi với 250 sinh viên. Kết quả cho thấy các loại phong cách học tập đều thuộc cấp độ phong cách học tập chính, trong đó phong cách học tập thính giác là phong cách học tập được yêu thích nhất. Giới tính không ảnh hưởng đến phong cách học tập của sinh viên. Song, thời gian học tập có ảnh hưởng đến phong cách học tập loại thính giác của sinh viên, vùng miền có ảnh hưởng đến phong cách học tập loại cá nhân của sinh viên. Phong cách học tập loại cá nhân và loại nhóm có ảnh hưởng đến kết quả học tập của sinh viên.

No início do ano de 2020, o mundo foi surpreendido pela COVID-19 e as medidas sanitárias adotadas para conter a disseminação do Novo Corona vírus fizeram com que a sociedade se submetesse a um processo de reeducação dos seus hábitos. As transformações tangenciaram desde o ambiente de trabalho, como também o sistema educacional, e em todas as áreas houve a necessidade de se adequar. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho consiste em relatar as experiências vivenciadas pelos acadêmicos do sétimo período (noturno) do curso de licenciatura em Geografia da Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (sede) nas atividades referentes ao período de regência na disciplina de Estágio Curricular Supervisionado. Os procedimentos metodológicos foram: consulta bibliográfica e análise de decretos federais, da resolução estadual para aplicação de ensino remoto emergencial e da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional e apresentação de atividades desenvolvidas durante o período de regência. Dentre os resultados foi possível observar as práticas e estratégias de ensino adotadas por cada escola-parceira e, ao passo que, também foi possível analisar as disparidades que eram concebidas desde as relações entre, docente, discente e os pais, como quanto as ferramentas utilizadas.

The COVID-19 outbreak situation brought into focus not only the safety but also the mental wellbeing of nursing students. At present, the level of fear of COVID-19 and associated factors among nursing students in the Philippines is not well understood. This cross-sectional online survey determined the relationship between Internet use and eHealth literacy with fear of COVID-19. One thousand three hundred and sixty-seven (n=1,367) answered an online survey using the adopted eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS), and Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) administered from May 1 to 15, 2020. Descriptive statistics, tests for differences, and correlational analysis were performed. Results indicated that the composite score of the FCV-19S was 3.65, indicating moderate to high levels of fear. Fear of COVID-19 significantly differed based on sex, year level, and location. A significant inverse relationship was found between the average daily use of the Internet and fear of COVID-19. On the other hand, no significant association was noted between eHealth literacy and fear of COVID-19. The first wave of the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a far-reaching impact on nursing students' psychological wellbeing. This study highlights the value of the Internet and its use during the outbreak may not always lead to higher fear related to COVID-19. Nursing schools may need to create strategies to promote regulated and responsible Internet use, address students' mental health concerns and develop interventions to respond proactively to mitigate or reduce fear among nursing students during the pandemic.

Published: May 2021

Günümüz işletmelerinde insan odaklı yaklaşımın artması nedeniyle insan davranışlarının incelenmesi kaçınılmaz bir gereklilik olmuştur. Çalışanların örgüt uygulamalarında adaletsiz davranıldığını düşünmeye başlamaları, onların örgüte karşı olumsuz tutumlar sergilemesine neden olmaktadır. Bu durum örgütsel sinizm olarak tanımlanan davranışlara yol açabilmektedir. Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı, örgütsel adalet ve örgütsel sinizm davranışı konularında mevcut durumu ortaya koymak, genel bir bakış açısı oluşturmak ve gelecekteki araştırmalara yön tayin etmeye katkı sağlamaktır. Yöntem: Literatür taraması ile incelenen çalışmalar, örgütsel adalet üç alt boyutu olan dağıtımsal, prosedürel ve etkileşimsel adalet boyutları ile; örgütsel sinizm ise üç alt boyutu olan bilişsel, duyuşsal ve davranışsal boyutları ile ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada meta-analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışma kapsamında, kavramların alt boyutları da dikkate alınarak 2010-2019 yılları arasında Türkiye’de örgütsel adalet konusunda yapılmış 10 yüksek lisans, örgütsel sinizm konusunda yapılmış 8 yüksek lisans tezi ve 2 doktora tezi, bu iki kavramı birlikte ele alan ise 6 yüksek lisans tezi ile 1 doktora tezi olmak üzere toplam 27 lisansüstü tez dâhil edilmiştir. Örgütsel adalet ve örgütsel sinizm konularının daha çok hangi konularla ilişkiler kurulduğuna ve karşılaştırıldığına bakılmıştır. Meta-analiz yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan çalışmada örgütsel sinizm ile bağlantılı olarak en fazla ‘örgütsel vatandaşlık, işten ayrılma niyeti, iş tatmini, liderlik, örgüt kültürü, psikolojik sözleşme ve sermaye, örgütsel bağlılık, örgütsel güven, mobbing ve tükenmişlik’ konularına yer verildiği görülmüştür. Örgütsel adalet ile bağlantılı olarak ise, en fazla ‘performans değerlendirme, liderlik, örgütsel güven, iş tatmini, örgütsel bağlılık, örgütsel vatandaşlık ve tükenmişlik’ konuların incelendiği görülmüştür. Özgünlük: Örgütsel adalet ve örgütsel sinizm kavramları alan yazınında önemli sayılabilecek bir inceleme alanına sahiptir. Bu çalışma işletmelerin bu kavramları göz önünde bulundurarak örgüt politikalarını geliştirilmesini sağlamasına katkıda bulunacaktır.

El uso de nuevas tecnologías como plataformas virtuales, ya sea para estudio o negocio; aplicaciones para celular, formatos de archivos comprimidos, almacenamiento gratuito y mensajería instantánea; son solo un complemento del estilo de vida de cada joven estudiante de hoy. Sin embargo, para los docentes es un reto, no solo porque son herramientas indispensables para el aprendizaje de nuevos conocimientos y tienen que adaptarse a ellas; sino porque estas últimas generaciones demuestran un desapego y desinterés en las relaciones humanas, forzando la creación y aplicación de nuevas estrategias comunicativas, que rescaten la relación entre docente y alumno. El objetivo de este artículo es mostrar los resultados de un programa que busca estimular el espíritu emprendedor desde la universidad, a fin de potenciar el talento y la creatividad necesaria para la competitividad en un mundo laboral globalizado. Dentro de las conclusiones resaltan, la empatía innata que tienen los estudiantes con el uso de herramientas tecnológicas y el ímpetu que debe desarrollar el docente para concientizar en los alumnos la perseverancia y resiliencia que lo ayudará a superar obstáculos y fortalecerá toda idea de negocio que emprenda.
