CONCEPTUAL CATEGORIES OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR IN LINGUISTIC RESEARCHES: GERMAN AND UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE CONTEXTS
Authors: Hrushko Svitlana , Chernenko Nataliya
Published: November 2019

The article discusses the uniqueness of the conceptual categories of human behavior in linguistics’ functioning. Attention is focused on German and Ukrainian concepts in the context of their functioning in the language. The method of comparative analysis is used. Attention is drawn to the fact that, unlike the Ukrainian language, where the concepts “purpose” and (Ukrainian – “meta”) are used as synonyms, the definitions "weck” and "ziel” are distinguished in German. In the first case, “zweck” is an individual goal, already developed collectively, and the entire process of activity that leads to the achievement of the goal is fixed in the model. Secondly – “ziel” – is the concept of goal, associated with individual activities. This fact is explained by the historical and psycholinguistic features of the Germans.
The connection of linguistics and psycholinguistics in this area is undeniable. The language, thinking and behavior of people are psychologically determined by linguistic phenomena that affect the formation of linguistic consciousness of human activity as a linguistic personality with its national originality of linguistic behavior. The solution of these issues in the context of the latest achievements of psychological and linguistic science and in accordance with modern methodological requirements makes up the conceptual basis, the problem structure, the content of scientific research on the problem of conceptual categories of human behavior.
A goal is a key concept in concepts that describe any complex organic system or human behavior (primarily in understanding its purpose). It is characterized by a “concept of state” that a person or system strives for and for which it exists. This phenomenon is actively investigated by domestic and foreign scientists.
Análisis de la presencia de las hermandades rocieras en las redes sociales
Authors: Cartes Barroso Manuel Jesús
Published: November 2019

Como asociaciones públicas de fieles dentro de la Iglesia católica, las hermandades y cofradías, al igual que cualquier otra institución o colectivo, también tienen la necesidad de comunicar y mantener contacto con sus hermanos y seguidores. Hasta ahora han alcanzado estos propósitos a través de diversas publicaciones impresas y, en los últimos años, gracias a las distintas plataformas 2.0. Un buen ejemplo, en este sentido, es el de las hermandades rocieras, que cuentan con un gran número de seguidores y una gran participación en los medios sociales, aunque no siempre de forma acertada ni en base a una estrategia de comunicación. Por ello, este artículo pretende examinar la presencia e intentar comprender el uso de las redes sociales en estas corporaciones religiosas.

The aim of our study was to evaluate the possibility of influencing the risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and metabolic cognitive syndrome. As a model of MetS, we used high-fat-fructose diet (HFFD) fed hypertriacylglycerolemic (HTG) rats. Control group included HTG rats fed with HFFD during 8 weeks (HFFD8). Furthermore, we tested the effect of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies. Non-pharmacological therapy, which we chose, was a change in diet from HFFD (5 weeks) to standard one (3 weeks) and thus caloric restriction (HFFD5+3). The drug we used was rosmarinic acid (RA; 100mg/kg), which we administered to rats after 5 weeks of HFFD once a day for consecutive 3 weeks with current change in diet to standard one (HFFD5+3+RA) or during lasting last 3 weeks of HFFD (HFFD8+RA). After 8 weeks of experiment, lipid peroxidation markers, lipid profile of blood serum, and neuronal transmission and synaptic plasticity (long-term potentiation [LTP]) in hippocampal sections were evaluated in vitro. We observed a significant effect of dietary change in lipid profile (decreased total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-cholesterol] and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-cholesterol]). The combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments caused a decrease in total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and lipid peroxidation in blood serum. Change in HFFD to standard diet without treatment resulted in slight improvement in neuronal transmission in the hippocampus and caloric restriction alone also had positive effect on LTP maintenance. Our results suggest that combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches had better impact on the biochemical parameters of MetS in blood serum, but weak impact on neuronal functions in the hippocampus, where the expected positive effect was achieved only by caloric restriction.

Authors: Farouk S. , Al-Sanoussi A.J.
Published: November 2019

Two field experiments were done at a private farm in Kalabsho and Zayian district, Dakhlia Egypt, throughout 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 seasons, to evaluate the promotive role of chitosan (Chi, 250 and 500 mg/l) and/or sodium metasilicate (Si, 125 and 250 mg/l) foliar application on barley growth, yield, and some physiological attributes in newly reclaimed soil. Application of Si or Chi concentrations showed an improvement in plant growth as: plant height, tiller number per plant, flag leaf area and shoot dry weight; photosynthetic pigments; organic osmolytes; ion percentage, as well as yield and its quality in both growing seasons. Generally, the application of Si gave higher values in most cases than Chi application in the experimental year. It was concluded that application of 125 mg/l sodium metasilicate twice at 50 and 70 days from sowing is advantageous to improving plant growth and productivity under newly reclaimed soils.

Selection of suitable tillage implement, as well as amendments, is very important for the reclamation of salt affected soils. For this purpose, a field study was performed using the different rates of gypsum and tillage implements for the production of sorghum and berseem fodders in salt affected field using high RSC water. Treatments including were T1: control (cultivator twice), T2: modified chisel plough (twice), T3: chisel plough (twice), T4: modified chisel plough (twice) + gypsum application @ 100% GR of soil, T5: modified chisel plough (twice) + gypsum application @ 50% GR of soil, T6: chisel plough (twice) + gypsum application @ 100% GR of soil, T7: chisel plough (twice) + gypsum application @ 50% GR of soil. A moderately salt affected field {ECe = 5.37 (d Sm−1), pHs = 9.18, SAR = 34.01 (m mol L−1)1/2 and GR 3.10 t acre−1} was selected. Field was leveled, prepared and gypsum was applied according to treatment plan, followed by leaching. Tubewell water {ECiw= 1.34 dS m−1, RSC= 8.50 me L−1 and SAR= 12.72 (mmol L−1)1/2} was used for irrigation. Gypsum was also applied before sowing of each crop on RSC basis of water. The trial was performed in the RCBD design with three replications. Pooled data of three years showed that maximum fodder yield of sorghum (38.44 t ha−1) and berseem (60.21 t ha−1) was recorded with modified chisel plough (twice) + gypsum @ 100% GR of soil. Data regarding the soil qualities revealed that soil pHs, ECe, SAR and BD decreased by 4.24, 30.72 and 31.37, respectively, while HC was increased by 130 % with use of modified chisel plough (twice) + gypsum @ 100% GR of soil, as compared to control.
The seismicity of central and north-east Himalayan region
Authors: Kumar Susheel , Sharma Nitin
Published: November 2019

The Himalayan range extends upto 2400 km arc from Indus river valley in the west to Brahmaputra river valley in the east of India. Due to distinct geological structures of Himalayan seismic belt, seismicity in Himalaya is inhomogeneous. The inhomogeneity in seismicity is responsible for a number of seismic gaps in the Himalayan seismic belt. Thus Iin the present study, we proposed the study of spatial and temporal evolution of seismicity in entire central and north-east Himalayan region by using Gutenberg-Richter relationship. A detailed study on the behavior of natural seismicity in and around the seismic gap regions is carried out. The study region is segmented in four meridional regions (A) 80°E to 83.5°E, (B) 83.5°E to 87.5°E, (C) 87.5°E to 90°E and (D) 90°E to 98°E along with a fixed latitude belt. The homogeneous catalogue with 3 ≤ Mb ≤ 6.5 is used for the spatial and temporal analysis of seismicity in terms of b-value. It is find out that pockets of lower b-values are coinciding over and around stress accumulated regions. The observed low b-value before occurrence of the Nepal earthquake of 25th April, 2015 supports the argument of impending occurrence of moderate to large magnitude earthquake in Sikkim and north-east Himalayan region in future.

Our study describes changes in haematological parameters in wild ruminants with parasitic infection. Six European mouflons (Ovis musimon), six fallow deer (Dama dama) and six roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) were experimentally infected with the resistant strain of the model parasite 8000 L3 Haemonchus contortus. The blood samples were collected on Day 0, 16, 37, 58, 77, and 99 of the experiment. Mild anaemia was observed in mouflons and roe deer while red blood cells increased in red blood counts (total erythrocytes, haematocrit and haemoglobin). As for the white blood cells count, leucopenia with neutrophilia and lymphopenia was recorded in mouflons, in the fallow deer and roe deer leucocytosis with neutropenia and lymphocytosis were observed. Changes in the dynamics of haematological parameters were statistically insignificant.

Published: November 2019

The occurrence of zoonotic parasitic nematodes in Atlantic chub mackerels (Scomber colias syn. Scomber japonicus) from Libyan waters was investigated, using epizootiological estimations and molecular specific characterization of larvae. Nematodes belonging to Anisakis spp., the main etiological agent of anisakiasis in Mediterranean waters, and to Hysterothylacium spp. so far considered not pathogenic to humans, were detected. Prevalence values were generally high in visceral cavities (over 40 % for both parasites) while were low for Anisakis (around 1 %) and null for Hysterothylacium in muscles. Moreover, the level of infections was associated with seasons, a feature potentially useful to plan fishing captures and to elaborate risk mitigation strategies for anisakiasis. Species molecular identification performed on a subsample described the presence of Hysterothylacium aduncum as the predominant species, along with Anisakis pegreffii and the hybrids (A. pegreffii and A. simplex sensu stricto), thus posing a concrete zoonotic risk following the consumption of such fish species as a raw preparation.
Prophylactic efficacy of some chemoprotectants against abrin induced lethality
Authors: Saxena Nandita , Bhutia Yangchen Doma , Kumar Om , Phatak Pooja , Kaul Ramesh Kumar
Published: November 2019

Abrin is a highly toxic protein produced by Abrus precatorius. Exposure to abrin, either through accident or by act of terrorism, poses a significant risk to human health and safety. Abrin functions as a ribosome-inactivating protein by depurinating the 28S rRNA and inhibits protein synthesis. It is a potent toxin warfare agent. There are no antidotes available for abrin intoxication. Supportive care is the only option for treatment of abrin exposure. It is becoming increasingly important to develop countermeasures for abrin by developing pre- and post-exposure therapy. The aim of this study is to screen certain pharmaceutical compounds for their chemoprotective properties against abrin toxicity in vivo in BALB/c male mice. Twenty-one compounds having either antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cyto-protective properties or combination of them, were screened and administered as 1h pre-treatment followed by exposure of lethal dose (2×LD50, intraperitoneally) of abrin. To assess the protective efficacy of the compounds, survival and body weight was monitored. Fifteen compounds extended the survival time of animals significantly, as compared to abrin. The following five of these compounds, namely: Epicatechin-3-gallate, Gallic Acid, Lipoic Acid, GSH and Indomethacin extended the life time ranging from 6 to 9 days. These compounds also attenuated the abrin induced inflammation and enzymes associated with liver function, but none of them could prevent abrin induced lethality. The compounds offering extension of life could be useful to provide a time-window for other supportive treatment and could also be used as combinatorial therapy with other medical countermeasures against abrin induced lethality.

Authors: Pourian Mohammad Aref , Bakhshi Davood , Aalami Ali , Hokmabadi Hossein
Published: November 2019

Iran is one of the main diversity centers and origins of pistachios in the world. Pistachio cultivation spread first within the ancient Persian Empire and then moved gradually westward. Knowledge of the genetic relationships among wild and cultivated varieties of pistachio is important for the efficient utilization of the available germplasm resources. Three molecular marker strategies, namely, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism (IRAP), and retrotransposon microsatellite amplified polymorphism (REMAP), were used to study the genetic relationships among 35 pistachio accessions including 15 wild-type genotypes of Pistacia vera and 20 important cultivars from Iran. According to the results, high levels of polymorphism were observed for all three marker systems. REMAP and IRAP techniques had the higher mean values of genetic relationships parameters than ISSR technique. The results from this study showed that the 5′LTR2, Sukkula, Sukkula + UBC855, and 5′LTR2 + UBC811 primers were the most informative and could be used to evaluate the genetic relationships of pistachios accessions. Cluster analysis using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) properly separated the accessions and divided them into four main groups. The presence of most cultivated genotypes in a group indicates genetic erosion of cultivated pistachio in Iran. Wild-type genotypes of P. vera are located in different clusters indicating the high diversity of the genotypes. The results provide useful genetic information about wild pistachios in northeastern of Iran and indicate that the use of wild pistachios in breeding programs could be useful for generating new genotypes with interesting characters.
Silica Nanoparticles Enhances Physio-Biochemical Characters and Postharvest Quality of Rosa hybrida L. Cut Flowers
Authors: El-Serafy Rasha S.
Published: November 2019

The effect of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) preservative solutions on the postharvest quality of rose cut flowers was investigated in this study. SiNPs were used at the concentrations of 0, 1, 2, and 3 mg·dm−3. Treatments of SiNPs increased flower longevity compared to untreated flowers. Relative fresh weight, relative water content, and water uptake were improved because of SiNPs treatments. The enhancement in chlorophyll content, total soluble sugars, as well as total phenol and flavonoid contents were positively correlated with SiNPs treatments. Malondialdehyde (MDA) content significantly increased by control roses relative to treated ones. Activities of peroxidase (POX) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) enzymes significantly increased because of SiNPs treatments compared to the control. The treatment of 2 mg SiNPs·dm−3 maximized the longevity and improved the postharvest quality of cut roses. The results obtained suggested that SiNPs treatments could improve the longevity and postharvest quality of cut roses by reducing lipid peroxidation and motivating antioxidant machinery, therefore, retaining the membrane integrity.

Authors: Bodziony Przemysław , Patyk Michał , Kasztelewicz Zbigniew
Published: November 2019

Rational solution for mining equipment based on the use of haul trucks, excavators, wheel loaders and crunchers should result from thorough analysis of technical and economic issues – both cost-related and exploitational - which can have a crucial impact on the cost of minerals extraction. Moreover mining equipment should be selected with consideration for all vital parameters in specific exploitational conditions and even the exploiter’s preferences. This selection should consider hitherto disregarded criteria, such as mean availability and structure utilization of machinery systems with the aim to improve the same. Methodology presented in the paper illustrates practical application of MCDM and one particular method of this type – the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) – for resolving the problem in specific exploitational conditions of mineral resource in surface mining AHP method covers a multi-criteria approach based on a compensation strategy to model preferences and assuming variant comparability. Taking into account the preferences of the evaluator, which determine the subjectivity of comparative evaluation, is the core of the multi-criteria approach, which treats such preferences Considering the above issues, the following paper is an attempt to develop new and universal criteria as well as a method of evaluation and selection of means of mining equipment for mineral resource surface mines.

Detection of Patent foramen Ovale with Contrast Enhanced Transcranial Doppler at Divers
Authors: Dziewiatowski Krzysztof , Siermontowski Piotr
Published: November 2019

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a condition present in 25% of the adult population. It is a remnant of fetal foramen ovale which allows blood to pass from the right to the left atrium, bypassing the fetal lungs. In majority adults it does not have any clinical significance, but in some people it may allow shunting of venous blood into the left atrium (right – left – shunt or RLS), circumventing the lung filter, especially during sneezing, cough, lifting heavy equipment. Is such case, PFO may be a route for venous emboli or gas bubbles from veins to the arterial system. It is known as a paradoxical embolism and may be cause of ischaemic stroke or neurologic decompression sickness (DCI), inner-ear DCI and cutis marmorata. Transesophageal echocardiography is considered as a reference standard in detection of intracardial shunts. Its sensitivity and specificity ranges between 94%-100%. However, TEE is an invasive examination with potentially serious side effects. An alternative examination in RLS detection is contrast enhanced Transcranial Doppler (the bubble study or c-TCD). In comparison to TEE, Transcranial Doppler is not invasive, relatively not expensive and save technique. With its high sensitivity and specificity in detection of PFO, 97% and 93% respectively, it may improve detection of RLS and allow to conduct screening examination for PFO in divers.

Is there a correlation between GAD2 gene-243 A>G polymorphism and obesity?
Authors: Alkhzouz Camelia , Miclea Diana , Farcas Marius , Bucerzan Simona , Cabau Georgiana , Popp Radu Anghel
Published: November 2019

Introduction: GAD2 gene encodes the glutamate decarboxylase enzyme which catalyses the transformation of glutamate into γ-aminobutyric acid, GABA. It is suggested that some polymorphic alleles of GAD2 gene, such as -243A>G, have an increased transcriptional effect compared with the wild type, which results in an increase of GABA in the hypothalamus with the subsequent increase of the neuropeptide Y, thus exacerbating the hunger centre and the appetite. The aim of this study was to observe an association between the -243A>G polymorphism with obesity, comparatively studying a group of obese patients and a group of patients with normal weight.

Patients and method: 127 patients were clinically evaluated in the Genetic and Endocrine Department of Children’s Emergency Clinical Hospital, Cluj. The patients were included in two study groups, case group, with obesity (BMI higher than 97 kg/m2) and control group, with normal weight (BMI less than 97 kg/m2). Genotyping for GAD2-243A>G polymorphism was performed using PCR-RFLP technique, the two groups being compared regarding the genotypes and phenotypes.

Results and conclusions: In the obesity group, there is a statistically significant difference in BMI (kg/m2) between the subgroups with different genotypes (p=0.01), the AA genotype being less severely affected than AG and GG genotypes. In the normal weight group there is no association between BMI and different genotypes (AA, AG or GG). Also, there is a greater distribution of GG genotypes and G allele in the obesity group compared with the control group, with an odds ratio which suggest that -243A>G polymorphism is a risk factor in obesity development (GG genotype OR=3.76, G allele OR=1.73, p=0.04).

The finding of our study is important in explaining the multifactorial model of obesity, our research demonstrating that the GAD2-243 A> G variant could be a risk factor that added to other obesogenic factors would potentiate their effect.

Allergen immunotherapy: definition, indications, and reactions
Authors: Lei Dawn K. , Saltoun Carol
Published: November 2019

Specific allergen immunotherapy is the administration of increasing amounts of specific allergens to which the patient has type I immediate hypersensitivity. It is a disease-modifying therapy, indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic asthma,
and Hymenoptera hypersensitivity. Specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies for appropriate allergens for immunotherapy must be documented. Indications for allergen immunotherapy include (1) inadequate symptom control despite pharmacotherapy and avoidance measures; (2) a desire to reduce
the morbidity from allergic rhinitis and/or asthma, or reduce the risk of anaphylaxis from a future insect sting; (3) when the patient experiences undesirable adverse effects from pharmacotherapy; and (4) when avoidance is not possible. Several studies reported that immunotherapy in allergic
rhinitis seems to prevent the development of new allergic sensitizations and/or new onset asthma. Humoral-, cellular-, and tissue-level changes occur with allergen immunotherapy, including induction of allergen-specific regulatory T and B cells, interleukin 10, and transforming growth factor
β production; suppression of T-helper type 2 cell proliferation; large increases in anti-allergen IgG4 antibodies; and reduction in basophil, mast cell, and eosinophil mediator release. Allergen immunotherapy can be administered either subcutaneously in the physician's office or sublingually
by the patient at home. The use of immunotherapy in food allergy is still under investigation.
Acute severe asthma (status asthmaticus)
Authors: Agnihotri Neha T. , Saltoun Carol
Published: November 2019

Acute severe asthma, formerly known as status asthmaticus, is defined as severe asthma unresponsive to repeated courses of beta-agonist therapy. It is a medical emergency that requires immediate recognition and treatment. Albuterol in combination with ipratropium bromide in the emergency
department (ED) has been shown to decrease the time spent in the ED and the hospitalization rates. The benefits of ipratropium are not sustained after admission to the hospital. Oral or parenteral corticosteroids should be administered to all patients with acute severe asthma as early as possible
because clinical benefits may not occur for a minimum of 6 to 12 hours. Viral respiratory infections are a common trigger for acute asthma; other causes include medical nonadherence, allergen exposure (especially pets and mold [e.g., Alternaria species]) in individuals who are severely atopic,
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory exposure in patients with aspirin allergy, irritant inhalation (e.g., smoke, paint), exercise, and insufficient use of inhaled or oral corticosteroids. The patient's history should focus on the acute assessment of asthma control and morbidity, including current
use of oral or inhaled corticosteroids; the number of hospitalizations, ED visits, intensive care unit admissions, and intubations; the frequency of albuterol use; the presence of nighttime symptoms; activity intolerance; current medications; exposure to allergens; and other significant medical
conditions. Severe airflow obstruction may be predicted by accessory muscle use, difficulty speaking, refusal to recline < 30°, a pulse of >120 beats/min, and decreased breath sounds. More objective measures of airway obstruction via peak flow or forced expiratory volume in
1 second and pulse oximetry before oxygen administration usually are helpful. Pulse oximetry values of >90% are reassuring, although CO2 retention and a low partial pressure of oxygen may be missed.
Prevention of food allergy
Authors: Devonshire Ashley L. , Robison Rachel Glick
Published: November 2019

Primary prevention and secondary prevention in the context of food allergy refer to prevention of the development of sensitization (i.e., the presence of food-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) as measured by skin-prick testing and/or laboratory testing) and sensitization plus the clinical
manifestations of food allergy, respectively. Until recently, interventions that target the prevention of food allergy have been limited. Although exclusive breast-feeding for the first 6 months of life has been a long-standing recommendation due to associated health benefits, recommendations
regarding complementary feeding in infancy have significantly changed over the past 20 years. There now is evidence to support early introduction of peanut into the diet of infants with egg allergy, severe atopic dermatitis, or both diagnoses, defined as high risk for peanut allergy, to try
to prevent development of peanut allergy. Although guideline-based recommendations are not available for early introduction of additional allergenic foods, this topic is being actively studied. There is no evidence to support additional dietary modification of the maternal or infant diet for

In vitro tests are used to assist in the diagnosis of both allergic and immunologic diseases. Unfortunately, there is no single test that is pathognomonic for most allergic diseases. The most commonly ordered in vitro test by allergists is allergen specific IgE (sIgE), which is used
to help diagnose IgE mediated hypersensitivity to foods, aeroallergens and venoms. Multiple assays exist, although none of these assays have been adopted as the industry standard. Epicutaneous skin test is also a fundamental test in the diagnosis of IgE mediated hypersensitivity. In addition,
total IgE, basophil activation test (BAT), and serum tryptase may also be useful in elucidating allergic diseases. Immunologists rely on laboratory testing to diagnose primary immunodeficiency diseases. These tests include serum quantitative immunoglobulins, lymphocyte immunophenotyping by
flow cytometry and immune cell functional testing. Furthermore, genetic testing is invaluable in the diagnosis of many primary Immunodeficiencies.
KIRJASTOT VÄYLÄNÄ KOHTI AVOINTA JA TASA-ARVOISTA TIEDETTÄ: Terveisiä LIBER- ja IFLA-konferensseista

Published: November 2019

LIBER piti vuosikokouksensa kesäkuussa Dublinissa ja IFLA kutsui kirjastoalan elokuussa helteiseen Ateenaan. Molemmissa teemoina toistuivat avoin tiede sekä totuutta ja tietoa vaarantavat uhat. Esillä oli myös tarve uskaltaa: Teemaa tiivisti osuvasti IFLA:n puheenjohtaja Glòria Pérez-Salmerónin sanat: ”Älkää arastelko, olkaa rohkeita”.
TSEMPPIÄ ELÄMÄÄN JA OPINTOIHIN: KIRJASTOHENGAILUA OPISKELIJOIDEN HYVINVOINNIN TUKEMISEKSI

Kun Metropolia on avannut uusia kampuskirjastoja, on moneen kertaan mietitty tilan toiminnallisuutta oman työskentelyn näkökulmasta. Samalla tilasuunnittelu on johtanut pohtimaan tilan merkitystä myös asiakkaiden näkökulmasta. Aineistojen sähköistyessä kokoelmaan liittyvät tilatarpeet vähenevät ja samalla voi kysyä, mitä muita funktioita kirjastotilalla on korkeakouluyhteisössä. Syksyllä 2018 kirjasto ja muut korkeakoulupalvelut alkoivat suunnitella, voisiko kirjastosta syntyä hyvinvoinnin kohtaamispaikka. Tavoitteena on luoda uudenlainen toimintakulttuuri, joka madaltaa kynnystä tulla puhumaan mieltä vaivaavista asioista ja hakemaan tukea, apua ja tietoa. Pohdimme tässä artikkelissa korkeakoulukirjaston mahdollisuuksia osallistavana ja sosiaalista hyvinvointia tuottavana palveluna.
La cultura física debe integrarse con otras disciplinas
Authors: Barbosa Fabio
Published: November 2019

Mucho se ha pensado y meditado pararesolver el atraso que en materia deportiva y competitiva se tiene en Colombia. Pero mientras no se resuelvan problemas como la abundada de burocracia deportiva, la deficiente utilización de los escenarios, la falta de escuelas, de programaciones continuas y extensas por parte de ligas y federaciones, de capacitación y actualización de técnicos y monitores, la inexistencia de vínculos de cooperación, asesoría e intercambio de propuestas tendientes a formar, fomentar y cualificar el deporte en las regiones donde por suerte se cuenta con Programas de Educación Física a nivel Universitario, y la apatía de las Asociaciones de Educadores Físicos por integrarse a la realidad sociodeportiva del país, que no les han permitido tomar conciencia del rol que deben cumplir en el proceso formativo del deportista competitivo, recreativo, participativo y campeón.
Sugerencias para el ejercicio de la docencia universitaria
Authors: Bohorquez Lozano Hilda Marina
Published: November 2019

NO ! no pueden darse sugerencias para ejercer un quehacer, ésto sería asumir que se tiene la última palabra, y realmente estoy convencida que nadie la tiene; lo más que cada quien puede hacer es compartir lo que ha aprendido durante el tiempo en el que ha desempeñado su labor respectiva.Por lo anterior me voy a permitir compartir algunos de los aspectos pertinentes que he aprendido (recogido) en mis años de desempeño en la USCO.Mis últimos estudios los realicé en la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional de donde obtuve el título de Magister en Educación con especialidad en FISICA . Desde 1979 me vinculé a la USCO y he enseñado OPTICA, MECANICA, ELECTRICIDAD, BIOFISICA, TERMODINAMICA, con alumnos de Licenciatura en Matemáticas y Física, de Ingeniería y de Medicina, de semestres inferiores e intermedios; utilizando algunas formas didácticas (exposiciones, demostraciones experimentales, discusiones dirigidas, talleres, presentación de videos y sonovisos, etc.)Con lo anotado, deseo resaltar que el ejercicio de la docencia me ha llevado a considerar en la identificación de mi quehacer, varios aspectos simultáneamente. Uno, la formación universitaria recibida, me ubica sobre el qué enseño, o sea sobre QUE saber orienta mi quehacer. Otro, con QUIENES realizo éste, me ha facilitado percibir la variedad de caractéres presente en los diferentes seres humanos. Un tercer aspecto, el PARA QUE oriento a quienes oriento sobre el saber que orienta mi quehacer, ha generado un mayor sentido a mi actividad diaria, y por qué no decirlo, a mi misma vida . Un último aspecto, el COMO oriento, es el factor que ha generado el deseo constante de romper con la rutina, tal que dinamice el quehacer mismo.
El currículo social: una necesidad de los PEI
Authors: Avendaño Alvaro
Published: November 2019

NECESIDAD DEL CURRÍCULO SOCIAL:

1.1 PARA LA GESTIÓN EN LA ESCUELA:

En el diseño de los PEI existen tres grupos: alumnos, padres de familia, profesores y egresados que participan en el PEI. Pero qué cómo podrán participar los padres de familia y egresados sin una identidad como comunidad o sin una preparación adecuada en cuestiones pedagógicas?. Cómo garantizar que el proyecto educativo institucional sea realmente un producto de la comunidad educativa y no sólo de los educadores, los directivos docentes y los administradores escolares?La respuesta a esta gestión se puede dar a través de un programa extramuros de las intituciones educativas a nivel municipal que se llama el CURRICULO SOCIAL.
La evaluación como recurso pedagógico para el mejoramiento del aprendizaje
Authors: Cortés Chávarro Faiver E.
Published: November 2019

Las sociedades en el mundo se han caracterizado por su interés en obtener y mantener su hegemonía en el desarrollo de sus diferentes dimensiones que conforman su cultura, la economía, la política y el conocimiento. Algunos grupos humanos han pasado a ser receptores de la influencia de otros, causa y consecuencia, de su papel desempeñado en los sistemas de producción.

La educación es uno de los factores principales para el progreso económico y social. Por tal motivo, mejorar, o al menos mantener, los niveles de formación es una prioridad de las políticas educativas internacionales. Sin importar cuál sea el rol que se desem- peñe en las condiciones de la realidad mundial, es inherente el interés o la imposición, de buscar estrategias para mejorar los resultados escolares, manteniendo una visión comparativa de cifras, logros, objetivos y competencias, dirigidos hacia la satisfacción de necesidades impropias a la cultura local.
