DEVELOPING COMFORTABLE LEARNING ZONE FOR TRIBAL STUDENTS IN JHARKHAND THROUGH MULTICULTURAL TEACHING
Authors: Tiwari Sushil Kumar
Published: February 2021

India is a country of diverse culture where the people of various religions, faiths, castes, tribes, classes, languages etc. live together. Multiculturalism is inherent in Indian society and there is a long history of unity in diversity. Indian classrooms too, delineate tremendous diversity. Similar to the worldview of multicultural formal education, no Indian classroom is monocultural. At some places, like in tribal dominated state Jharkhand, it is a major concern and liberates enough ground to redesign teaching.
There is a general misconception that multicultural teaching is the need of minority groups of the classroom. Tribal students are dominant in most of the schools of Jharkhand as far as number is concerned. But even then, many of them are not comfortable to learn equally with others. Multicultural teaching provides comfortable zone of learning for them. Present paper entails about the multicultural teaching with adequate representation of tribes of Jharkhand in content, pedagogy and classroom
environment. The research carried out to explore the scope of representation to develop multicultural plan and methodology, combined to term as multicultural teaching. The multicultural lesson plan and certain multicultural interventions has been developed and compared with conventional teaching for the required frame of reference.

Published: February 2021

Background: Though there are many studies on the effects of anesthesia methods used for cesarean section on the newborn, research on this topic still continues. In our prospective observational study, we investigated the effects of different anesthesia techniques used in routine cesarean deliveries on early neonatal outcomes in our hospital. Methods: This prospective, observational, randomized study included a total of 222 ASA II risk group pregnant women undergoing elective cesarean section at term (38-41 weeks’ gestation) without fetal distress. The women were randomized into three groups. In the general anesthesia with propofol group (Group P, n = 74), anesthesia was induced with 2 mg∙kg-1 propofol and 0.6-0.9 mg∙kg-1 rocuronium. In the general anesthesia with thiopental sodium group (Group T, n = 74), anesthesia was induced with 5 mg∙kg-1 thiopental sodium and 0.6-0.9 mg∙kg-1 rocuronium. Women in the spinal anesthesia group (Group SA, n = 74) were administered 0.5% (10 mg) hypertonic bupivacaine and 10 mcg fentanyl. Results: There were no significant differences between Group SA, Group P, and Group T in terms of delivery time; neonatal 1- and 5-min Apgar scores; neonatal jaundice rates; neonatal systolic, diastolic, or mean blood pressure or peak heart rate; neonatal intensive care requirement; pH, PCO2, PO2 values in cord blood gas; or neonatal glucose and lactate values. The rate of ephedrine use was significantly higher in Group SA than in Group P and Group T. Maternal satisfaction score was higher in Group SA at postoperative 4 hours and in Group P at 24 hours. The number of newborns taken into intensive care unit in Group T was significantly higher in the 1st hour, 4th hour, 5th hour and total. Respectively p value (0.006, 0,048, 0,048, and 0,005). Pain on injection was present in 55% of patients (n = 81), mild in 36% (n = 54), and severe in 18% (n = 27). Myoclonies occurred in 4% of patients (n = 7) and local rash in 6% of patients (n = 10). Differences between formulations did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: None of the three anesthesia methods showed superiority after elective cesarean delivery. However, spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia with propofol are more appropriate for pregnant women in terms of effects on the neonate.

Assessment of Megadenus holothuricola Rosén, 1910 (Eulimidae), an endoparasite of Holothuria mexicana Ludwig, 1875 (Holothuriidae) in the southern Gulf of Mexico and the description a new species
Authors: González-Vallejo Norma Emilia , Amador-Carrillo Stephanie
Published: February 2021

As part of a study on holothurians from the southern Gulf of Mexico, some Holothuria mexicana Ludwig, 1875 were obtained for gut analysis. In two of them, a couple of eulimids were located inside the main tube of the respiratory tree. They were identified as Megadenus holothuricola Rosén, 1910, described from the Bahamas Islands, based on five specimens attached to the respiratory tree of H. mexicana. The original description was brief with few details, the type material is lost, and the species has not been found again. In this contribution, this species is confirmed for Campeche Bay, Mexico. The adult shell is globular to conical, transparent, thin, and fragile. Megadenus smithisp. nov. from Palmyra Atoll, Central Pacific is described based on adult specimens. It differs from its congeneric species in its more robust shell, the pseudopallium does not cover the shell, and its short and contracted proboscis forms a thick disc. Further research on these eulimid parasites is now complicated in the southern Gulf of Mexico because of the holothurian population collapse due to over-exploitation of the fishery.
Revision and description of six species of Choeradoplana (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida), with an emendation to the genus
Authors: Lago-Barcia Domingo , Silva Marcos Santos , Carbayo Fernando
Published: February 2021

Living representatives of the Neotropical genus Choeradoplana Graff, 1896 (Geoplaninae, Tricladida, Platyhelminthes) are easily recognized by the typical shape of the head which is laterally expanded, rolled-up, and ventrally provided with two glandular cushions. In this study, the morphology and phylogeny (cytochrome C oxidase subunit I gene) of several species of land planarians are taxonomically investigated. Four of the six species studied are new to science, namely: Ch. eudoxiae Silva & Carbayo, sp. nov., Ch. claudioi Lago-Barcia & Carbayo, sp. nov., Ch. onae Lago-Barcia & Carbayo, sp. nov., and Ch. riutortae Lago-Barcia & Carbayo, sp. nov. The species Choeradoplana albonigra and Ch. eudoxiae deviate from the usual body shape pattern in that the head does not present lateral expansions nor glandular cushions, becoming indistinguishable from its sister genus Cephaloflexa. Pseudogeoplana tristriata (Schultze & Müller, 1857) is also redescribed from a newly collected specimen and was discovered to be a member of Choeradoplana. Graff (1899) also studied another specimen that was considered to be conspecific with P. tristriata; however, in this new it is concluded that it is not conspecific but rather a new species. The name Pseudogeoplana aevipandemiae Lago-Barcia & Carbayo, sp. nov. is suggested for Graff’s specimen.
Facilitating effective student learning on subject matter “Simple colloids” through demonstrative educational videos

The introduction of the computer into the educational process is a fact. The educational use of new technologies creates a new, more appealing and enjoyable learning environment. The introduction of new technologies into school differentiates the role of the professor by giving him/her a guiding character in a process of experiential approach to knowledge. In the present paper a proposal for the teaching of the chemistry module “Simple Colloids” is presented, with the contribution of video recorded educational experiments. Complete experiments on the subject of “Simple Colloids” and their properties are presented, aiming at familiarizing students with this theory.
Un compendio de gramática árabe en una obra lexicográfica castellana: el «tesoro» de Diego de Urrea en el Tesoro de la lengua castellana o española de Sebastián de Covarrubias (1611)
Authors: Neyrod Dominique
Published: February 2021

Tesoro de la lengua castellana o española de Covarrubias encubre otro tesoro: una gramática básica del árabe, diseminada en los dos centenares de etimologías árabes proporcionadas por el destacado arabista y arabófono contemporáneo del lexicógrafo, Diego de Urrea. Tal es el planteamiento de nuestro estudio, que se dedicará, gracias al análisis lingüístico, a poner de manifiesto en este corpus la presencia explícita, y la mayoría de las veces implícita, de numerosos datos gramaticales que remiten a pautas fundamentales de la gramática árabe, como son el sistema de derivación y la morfofonología del verbo. La exposición de esos datos en el Tesoro se hace gracias a una terminología original, que solo se puede entender en el marco de la gramática árabe y que constituye una verdadera innovación en el campo de las gramáticas árabes compuestas por los arabistas europeos contemporáneos. Por otra parte, las etimologías de Urrea sostienen la nueva «teoría de la raíz verbal» introducida por Erpenius en su Grammatica Arabica (1613) y sugieren por lo tanto la involucración de aquél en el arabismo contemporáneo. Este estudio arroja nueva luz sobre el papel del árabe en el Tesoro de Covarrubias, papel que había pasado, desde la primera reedición moderna del Tesoro en 1943, completamente desapercibido para los especialistas. Todo ello nos invita a ver en el Tesoro una obra innovadora en el contexto de los nuevos intereses científicos que, a partir de finales del siglo XVI, se encaminarían hacia la emergencia de una nueva ciencia: el orientalismo.

Published: February 2021

Though in this modern society men and women are said to be given equal rights, having no gender discrimination, women are still considered weak and endlessly facing rape, domestic violence, eve-teasing, workplace violence, physical assault, cyberbullying even being killed. In South Asian countries, like Bangladesh, India, Pakistan there are thousands of cases regarding violence against women. The use of ICT including smartphone applications can be an aid in building awareness and support against these issues. Although several applications were developed worldwide, but not out there online for sensible use. In this paper, we aspire to present women with a technical solution by providing them a mobile application “SuperWomen” that is centered on urban and rural women of Asian countries and also available online. Not only women, but its voice-controlled siren feature is also a great help for physically challenged individuals, that works even on the lock screen. Survey feedback of this application shows that it takes care of each pre-incidental and post-incidental condition like an expert. This application provides user-friendly navigation for women with less technical knowledge. Its key features are secret button emergency SMS alert, location sharing with any social media, lawyer chatbot, pictorial self-defense techniques, etc. The effectiveness of this application has been justified through extensive literature review, application benchmark, performance evaluation, user survey, deployment in Google Play Store. We believe that this will bring a holistic resolution to safeguard suppressed women worldwide.

A critical assessment of the construct of attitude in sociolinguistcs: A socio-psychological insight (Part 1)
Authors: Przygoński Krzysztof
Published: February 2021

The present article constitutes the first part of a brief critical analysis of the research on attitude and attitude-(speech) behaviour relations. Its major aim is to show that the contribution from the socio-psychological paradigm can prove relevant and valuable when applied to sociolinguistic research on attitude and attitude-behaviour relations. The author argues that attitudinal investigations in sociolinguistics, despite their popu­larity and rich history, frequently suffer from a number of methodological and theoretical flaws. The author advances an argument that a reconceptualization of the construct of attitude and certain methodological principles can help refine the whole language at­titudes paradigm. Specifically, it is pointed out that a cognitive/information-processing approach to attitude formation, the theory of planned behaviour and other theoretical and methodological insights discussed in this paper can prove immensely rewarding and can give a new impetus for further research.
Can a Park Save the City?: Hopes and Pitfalls of the London National Park City
Authors: Miciukiewicz Konrad
Published: February 2021

This article enquires into the transformative potential of the London National Park City. In doing so it situates the vision for, the becoming, and the Charter of an urban national park in relational thinking about metropolitan nature and sustainable urbanisation. It looks at hopes and pitfalls of the London National Park City in the face of growing socio-environmental injustice and the climate crisis. First, the article explores the National Park City as a form of ecological reflexivity and social practice in the context of relational concepts of nature and the city. Second, it examines opportunities offered by the Park City with respect to urban environmental sustainability, health and wellbeing, connected diversity, socio-economic inclusion and political agency. Third, it looks at pitfalls of the National Park City relating to environmental gentrification, as well as to trade-offs between grassroots creativity and capability to bring about material change. Last but not least, the article advocates for negotiation of synergies between ‘green’ and ‘grey’ urban natures as a strategy to address the climate crisis.
„Nowe otwarcie” w projektowaniu przestrzeni zurbanizowanych
Authors: Wiącek Katarzyna
Published: February 2021

Inspired by the activities of the international scientific collective New Keywords Collective, I present mottoes that should accompany a new opening in the design of contemporary urbanized areas. The re-modelling of the dominant spatial planning policies into intersectional and horizontal, should lead to a process of sharing public goods and the inclusion of categories of ‘temporariness’ and ‘disassembling’ in the global discourse as inevitable in times of crisis.
Dlaczego tolerować religię?
Authors: Leiter Brian
Published: February 2021

The majority of legal systems in Western democracies accord special treatment to religions, e.g. exemptions from generally applicable laws if they conflict with religious convictions. Other beliefs do not usually enjoy such far‑reaching tolerance on the part of the state. The article raises the question of how granting such privilege to religious views can be justified. Arguments of some philosophers (e.g. Thomas Hobbes’) which suggest that an intolerant attitude might sometimes be disadvantageous are in fact only instrumental, and do not prove that tolerance is a moral virtue. This last claim only follows from the arguments of John Stuart Mill and John Rawls, who exemplify two basic approaches in ethics, i.e. utilitarianism and deontology. None of the analyzed arguments for freedom of conscience and religion distinguishes between religious and other beliefs, which suggests that the existing differences in their moral and legal treatment cannot be justified. Therefore, the question arises of whether legal regulations regarding religious and other beliefs should not be equated, so that religious views are not privileged.
Digitization, Vulnerability, and Holocaust Collections
Authors: Tureby Malin Thor , Wagrell Kristin
Published: February 2021

Although digitization has become a word that is almost synonymous with democratization and citizen participation, many museums and other cultural heritage institutions have found it difficult to live up to this political vision of inclusivity and access for all. In Sweden, political ambitions to digitize the cultural heritage sector are high. Yet, institutions still struggle to reconcile their previous practices with new technologies and ethical guidelines for collecting and curating material. In this article we identify, analyse, and try to find resolutions for the current gap that exists between cultural heritage practice and government policy on digitization, open access, and research ethics. By examining two Swedish examples of Holocaust collections that have not been digitized because of internal policies of secrecy and confidentiality, we attempt to demonstrate how discourses about vulnerability affect the ways in which certain archival practices resist policies of accessibility and ethical research. In order to unpack the discourses on vulnerability, Carol Bacchi’s post-structural approach to policy analysis has been used together with Judith Butler’s theories on vulnerability and resistance. In addition to understanding how cultural heritage institutions in Sweden have protected some of their collections and how this has obstructed efforts to make these collections more accessible, we also offer some suggestions on how these issues can be resolved by reimagining digitization as transformation.
Museums and the Traps of Social Media: The Case of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum
Authors: Manikowska Ewa
Published: February 2021

In this article I discuss both the recent threats as well as opportunities posed by social media to the activities of museums, taking into account social media’s importance as an evolving space of both social outreach and social activism. Recalling the controversies around the U.S. and UK museums’ social media responses to George Floyd’s death, I argue that museums run the risk of politicization and entanglement in controversial issues which are not necessarily linked to their profile and mission. I analyse museums’ social media guidelines, good practices, and mission statements, and posit that they play a fundamental role in integrating the new realm of the Web 2.0 into traditional museum activities. My main case study and example of good practice is the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum. It has constantly embedded general ethical and educational principles and guidelines of Holocaust commemoration and education into its more than 60-years’ experience in dealing with and taming political and cultural controversies surrounding this memory site of universal importance, and this embeddedness lies at the core of its social media activity. Defined as an “online community of remembrance”, it consists of well-thought-out initiatives which aim at informing the public about the everyday history of the camp, involving itself in the current commemorations and anniversaries, and rectifying simplifications and misinformation about Auschwitz and the Holocaust. I also analyse the fundamental role played by the official social media profiles in managing the crisis which arose at the beginning of 2018 with the amendment of the socalled “Holocaust Law” in Poland.
The Repatriation of Human Remains in France: 20 Years of (Mal)practice
Authors: Vigneron Sophie
Published: February 2021

This article analyses three cases of repatriation of human remains by French public museums in order to critically examine the difficulties in the changing institutional practice. It critically ssesses the statutory and administrative processes that have been used to repatriate human remains and identifies the difficulties that have been and are mostly still encountered. Firstly, it evaluates the public/private conundrum of ownership of human remains in French law, which explains why Parliament had to intervene to facilitate the repatriation of remains in public museum collections, whereas a private society could repatriate the skulls of chief Ataï and his doctor to New Caledonia without legal difficulties. Secondly, it reviews the need for parliamentary intervention for the repatriation of the remains of Saartjie Baartman to South Africa and several Mokomokai to New Zealand. Finally, it criticizes the administrative deadlock that has prevented the development of a repatriation practice that could have b en established after the successful repatriation of the remains of Vamaica Peru to Uruguay. Unfortunately, the process has remained opaque and ineffective, owing to a variety of factors; in particular the ambiguity regarding the role of the Commission scientifique nationale des collections, which is set to be abolished and whose role will be undertaken by the Haut conseil des Musées de France, and a lack of political, financial, and structural support from the Ministry of Culture. Until these shortcomings are addressed and clear criteria for repatriation are drawn up, it is unlikely that France will develop a coherent, transparent, and effective process for the repatriation of human remains.
Elektromobilność w autobusowym transporcie publicznym organizowanym przez Górnośląsko-Zagłębiowską Metropolię jako narzędzie realizacji idei zrównoważonej mobilności
Authors: Mercik Anna
Published: February 2021

The idea of sustainable mobility is one of the key concepts responding to the need to reduce the negative effects of transport, particularly in urban areas. European Union documents indicate a number of actions which can help to balance mobility. Among them, the concept of increasing the energy efficiency of transport processes through the use of low-emission sources of vehicle power, including electrification of vehicles, occupies an important place. The aim of the study is to determine whether the actions taken by the GZM Metropolis, operating since 2017 in the central part of the Silesian Voivodship, in the field of electrification of the bus transport it organises can be considered as actions imple­menting the objectives of sustainable mobility policy. The article contains: a review of current research on sustainable mobility policy, an attempt to define the concept of electromobility, an indication of the possibility of its application in public bus transport, identification of legal conditions for the implementation of electromobility in public transport in Poland, conditions for the activity of the GZM Metropolis as a public transport authority and an entity responsible for the implementation of sustainable mobility policy, as well as an analysis of actions taken by the Metropolis GZM and its operators in the field of bus fleet electrification. The results of the study are based, among other things, on an analysis of national and foreign literature on the subject, acts of the European Community and national law, strategic and operational documents of entities at various levels of administration and source data obtained during direct interviews with employees of the largest public transport organiser in the Silesian Voivodeship. The results of the participant observation of the author of the study were also used in the research.
Bariery w przemieszczaniu się osób dorosłych na obszarach wykluczonych transportowo – przykład rejonu Komańczy
Authors: Ciechański Ariel
Published: February 2021

At the end of June 2017, in the poviats served by the Sanok and Brzozów branches of Arriva Bus Transport Polska (formerly PKS Brzozów and PKS Sanok), an important carrier serving the area of several poviats withdrew unprecedentedly its services. Unlike many other former PKS enterprises that were being closed down, it still had a dominant, and even monopolistic, position on the market. As part of a broader study on the issue of transport based social exclusion, changes in the collective public transport network in the studied area, were identified. This was used to indicate the areas most exposed to this unfavorable process. One of such administrative division units is the Komańcza commune. Therefore, an additional study was conducted on the current transport problems of adults. It showed that they did not use public transport, and many were forced to buy a car due to insufficient offer of rail and bus operators.

Published: February 2021

In theoretical study of readiness of engineers-teachers of computer sciences for professional mobility, a valuative and motivated component is stated as a systemforming element and plays an important role in the process of forming a system of personal and professional values and goals. Valuative and motivated goals of an engineer-teacher reproduce social, professional and personal importance of vocational education, and influence formation of a purposeful creative mastering of professional competences necessary for development of professional mobility. The valuative and motivated sphere of would-be specialists is proved to be a significant instrument of socialization and adaptation to social and professional activities.
STEM Education as a Strategy to Move from the New Structural Economy to the Endogenous and Sustainable Growth Model in Latin America
Authors: Mendezcarlo Silva Violeta , Hernández Peña Salvador , Beltrán Saucedo Martín
Published: February 2021

The different economic models implemented by the states in the last decades range from a simple tendency for accumulation and growth in terms of the Gross Domestic Product to the development of people’s well-being under the premises of sustainability. Those that invest in individual development through education in strategic areas, facilitate the generation of intrinsic value, without relying on the exploitation of their natural resources or on the physical labor force of their citizens, thus achieving the effective sustainable development. In this paper, we analyzed the importance of introducing legal and political changes, focused on encouraging education in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), mainly in those economies that are oriented on the structural or developmental paradigm, whose most current form of expression is found in the theory of the New Structural Economy, to favor endogenous growth in accordance with the sustainable development paradigm, using LATAM as an example.

The Competences of Pedagogues Ensuring Successful Partnership with Parents of the Contemporary Generation: the Attitude of Students – the Future Pre-school Teachers
Authors: Kovienė Skaistė
Published: February 2021

The change of society, in particular concerning the generation of contemporary parents, imposes new requirements on pre-school education teachers and their competences. In case of teachers, it is not only pedagogical literacy, consisting of general, psychological knowledge, as well as knowledge about the child that are necessary. The skills of activity planning and organisation, organisation of education process, active involvement in the change of pre-school education system are also required. Moreover, the competences of communication and collaboration with parents, the ability to adapt and find necessary access to parents of the contemporary generation, the ability to involve them into the activities of an educational institution, empower parents to become competent partners of teachers are of appropriate significance. All these skills, although within different scopes, are taught and developed by future pre-school education teachers during their university education and internships. The aim of the study is to reveal, according to the opinion of students – future teachers - which pre-school education teacher competences are the most meaningful in order to ensure a successful partnership with parents of the contemporary generation. The applied research methods are as follows: the analysis of content of scientific information resources (to reveal the theoretical context), questions in writing (to collect empirical data) and content analysis (analysis of empirical data). The scope of qualitative research is 18 informants who agreed to participate in the research. They are students – future pre-school education teachers. The study results showed that the informants mostly emphasise the competence of pedagogical literacy that includes knowledge about the child, personal features of teachers helping to promote partnership relations with parents and students of the contemporary generation, professional expertise and values. The following features were accentuated: patience, self-confidence, benevolence in communication with parents of the contemporary generation with different attitudes and expectations. Future teachers did not focus on the competences of education process organisation, i.e. the ability to organise education process based on human resources – the parents. Thus, parents are not sufficiently involved in the education process. They pay little attention to the competence of activity prediction and planning.
Knowledge of Vocational Education and Practical Training Teachers on Providing Pre-medical First Aid in the Czech Republic
Authors: Hanušová Jaroslava , Prokop Jiří
Published: February 2021

The authors carried out a long-term research on knowledge of providing premedical first aid amongst elementary school teachers in the past years. The research results showed, among the others, that more than 45% of accidents at schools happen during vocational training. On this basis, the authors decided to carry out a long-term (2019–2021) research verifying the level of selected pre-medical first aid competencies amongst educational professionals providing vocational education and practical training. The study aimed at finding out whether and to what extent the vocational education and practical training teachers are competent in providing layman’s first aid, to understand possible gaps in these competencies, and to establish corresponding training needs. At this moment, the study sample includes 325 teachers of vocational education and practical training at vocational schools, secondary vocational schools, or secondary and higher technical schools, with a varying level of teaching experience. A quantitative method was used (questionnaire) in the research. The respondents completed a questionnaire consisting of two parts. The first part focused on selected attitudes, opinions and experience in providing pre-medical first aid, and the second part contained a knowledge test. The results show that the highest number of respondents failed questions on how to stop bleeding and treat wounds. The respondents believe that these are the most frequent injuries during vocational education and practical training. Many respondents also failed questions on what to do in case of a knocked-out tooth (only 42% of correct answers), how to provide first aid in case of epileptic seizure (42% of correct answers), and how to provide first aid in case of hypoglycaemia (31% of correct answers) and asthma (35%). It is clear that the failures stated above might have been influenced by not being familiar with updated international recommended first aid procedures, which are updated every five years, and 53% of respondents do not receive a pre-medical first aid training where they could gain this information. Taking into account the sample size and continuation of the research, it is certainly not possible to draw any general conclusions on the presented research. The respondents themselves state that they feel quite uncertain about their knowledge and skills related to providing layman’s first aid. However, this situation can lead to a serious threat or damage to health and lives of students. The authors of this study realize that it is necessary to take very seriously every sign of incompetency, and that they can only be eliminated by systematic education based, in particular, on regular practical training sessions (acquiring practical skills) in small groups and a development of interactive materials on first aid. An annual training session within the OHS (occupational health and safety) system is evidently insufficient.
Archaeology of the term “kształcenie”. On the history of the 20th century Polish systematic educational science
Authors: Stępkowski Dariusz
Published: February 2021

The aim of the article is to analyse the meaning and use of the term “kształcenie” in the concepts of systematic pedagogy in 20th-century Poland. The study involved M. Foucault’s archaeological method and systematic problem-historical analysis. As a result, it was found that in the indicated period a change in the disciplinary assignment of the term “kształcenie” from systematic pedagogy to didactics occurred, which was accompanied by a shift in meaning towards the instrumentally perceived modelling of personality through school teaching. Identification and revision of this fact opens the possibility to reintroduce the term and concept of “kształcenie” to systematic Polish pedagogy as one of its two basic categories, next to “wychowanie” (upbringing).

This study aims at exploring Interactive Videos (IV) used in Flipped Classroom (FC) and their feedback types and Learning Styles (LS) of Talented Students (TS) in developing Personal Knowledge Management Skills (PKMS) and achievement. The study was conducted on 51 STS from Hail Gifted Care Center in KSA, where they divided into four experimental groups depending on their LS and IV’s feedback. The study occurred during the first term of the academic year 2019–2020. In the FC based on IV, no statistical differences between the TF and AF were present in interactive videos on the achievement or PKMS for talented students. Also, no statistical differences between the LS (convergent–distant) in the total PKMS and achievement for STS were present when applying interactive videos–based flipped classrooms, same for statistical interaction effects between the TF–AF, save for some interaction effects in some knowledge management skills (conveying, analysis, organizing). Future research could address the diminishing motivation incurred with the interactive videos-based flipped classrooms. Specifically, how to design IV–based FCs with feedback types that encourage students to develop KPMS

Los rankings de hoteles ejercen gran influencia sobre los turistas a la hora de elegir un hotel. Los hoteleros también se esfuerzan por aparecer en lo más alto de la clasificación. Sin embargo, la evolución de estos rankings a lo largo del tiempo ha sido poco estudiada, por lo que es necesario profundizar en su análisis debido a las importantes implicaciones que tiene para los empresarios. ¿Permanecen los hoteles en las mismas posiciones o por el contrario experimentan grandes cambios en la clasificación? Este trabajo trata de aportar nuevas herramientas para el análisis de estos rankings con la creación de un índice que mide la movilidad de un hotel en el ranking de su ciudad. Se aplicará el modelo a una muestra de 727 hoteles con datos extraídos de Tripadvisor en cinco ciudades españolas (Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla, Valencia y Zaragoza).
