PURPOSE

CARTITUDE-1, a phase Ib/II study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, yielded early, deep, and durable responses at 12 months. Here, we present updated results 2 years after last patient in (median follow-up [MFU] approximately 28 months), including analyses of high-risk patient subgroups.

METHODS

Eligible patients had relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, had received ≥ 3 prior lines of therapy or were double refractory to a proteasome inhibitor and immunomodulatory drug and had received prior proteasome inhibitor, immunomodulatory drug, and anti-CD38 therapy. Patients received a single cilta-cel infusion 5-7 days after lymphodepletion. Responses were assessed by an independent review committee.

RESULTS

At a MFU of 27.7 months (N = 97), the overall response rate was 97.9% (95% CI, 92.7 to 99.7); 82.5% (95% CI, 73.4 to 89.4) of patients achieved a stringent complete response. Median duration of response was not estimable. Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were not reached; 27-month PFS and OS rates were 54.9% (95% CI, 44.0 to 64.6) and 70.4% (95% CI, 60.1 to 78.6), respectively. Overall response rates were high across all subgroups (95.1%-100%). Duration of response, PFS, and/or OS were shorter in patients with high-risk cytogenetics, International Staging System stage III, high tumor burden, or plasmacytomas. The safety profile was manageable with no new cilta-cel–related cytokine release syndrome and one new case of parkinsonism (day 914 after cilta-cel) since the last report.

CONCLUSION

At approximately 28 months MFU, patients treated with cilta-cel maintained deep and durable responses, observed in both standard and high-risk subgroups. The risk/benefit profile of cilta-cel remained favorable with longer follow-up.
“Mourners Are the Soundtrack of Life”
Authors: Hagay Re'ee
Published: June 2022

This article describes the mourning interwoven into the process of writing Ahuva ‘Ozeri's biography. The nonlinear temporality of the mourning produced by the child mourner from Tel Aviv's Yemenite Quarter is juxtaposed with national representations of Yemeni Jews, constructed as an origin of Jewish homogeneity rooted in the past. Hagay focuses on ‘Ozeri's cinematic performance against the background of south Tel Aviv, revealing a twofold memory of loss, both Mizrahi and Palestinian. ‘Ozeri emerges as a singer who drew on multiple resources of mourning positioned across putative national and regional borders of urban and global Southern geographies. ‘Ozeri is narrated not only as a child mourner but also as the last mourner, in the face of progressive national time. Hagay concludes by asking what is lost with the last mourner's departure from the world, when one loses the ability to recognize one's own loss through its reflection in the other's ruins.
The Cemetery for theKimsesiz
Authors: Zengin Aslı
Published: June 2022

The Turkish cemeteries for the kimsesiz (literally, people who have no one) are graveyards where the state buries the bodies of those people who remain unidentified or unclaimed after a certain period of time. In practice, they are burial sites for the social outcast, namely homeless and underclass people, victims of honor crimes, disowned members of blood families, premature babies, and more recently, unaccompanied refugees. They also contain the bodies of political detainees who have been “disappeared” under police interrogation and state violence, along with radical leftists and Kurdish guerrillas deemed “unidentified.” This article focuses on the cemetery for the kimsesiz in Kilyos, Istanbul in order to discuss the spatial ordering of death in the margins of social and political life in Turkey. These margins may be ethnic, religious, sectarian, or economic as well as gendered or sexed and sometimes medical. A close focus on this mortal topography of margins demonstrates the state's complicated relationship with the category of kimsesiz and the limits of social legibility and belonging in Turkey.

Published: June 2022

Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a form of acute coronary syndrome with high mortality rate. Management of STEMI should be performed as soon as possible to prevent further damage. With the emergence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), it may face obstacles. To overcome those problems, some changes in policy focusing on fibrinolytic therapy in STEMI patients have been applied. This study aimed to identify the effects of COVID-19 in management of STEMI patients in Indonesia.

Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (CMH), the national referral center in Indonesia. We compared data between 2018 to 2019 and 2020 to 2021 as before and during COVID-19 pandemic period, respectively. We analyzed the effects of COVID-19 on STEMI patients' visits to hospital i.e., monthly hospital admission and symptoms-to-hospital, management of STEMI i.e., the strategies and time of reperfusion, and clinical outcomes of STEMI patients i.e., major adverse coronary event and mortality.

Results: There was a significant statistically reduced mean of monthly hospital admissions from 11 to 7 (p = 0.002) and prolonged duration of symptoms-to-hospital during COVID-19 from 8 to 12 hours (p = 0.005). There was also a decrease in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) procedures during COVID-19 (65.2% vs. 27.8%, p<0.001), which was accompanied by an increased number of fibrinolytic (1.5% vs. 9.5%, p<0.001) and conservative therapy (28.5% vs. 55.6%, p <0.01). Moreover, there was also a prolonged duration of diagnosis-to-wire-crossing time (160 vs. 186 minutes, p = 0.005), meanwhile, percentage of urgent PCI, door-to-needle time, and clinical outcomes were not statistically significant.

Conclusions: During COVID-19 pandemic, the number STEMI patients declined in monthly hospital admission, delays in symptoms-to-hospital time, changes in type of reperfusion strategy, and delays in PPCI procedures in CMH. Meanwhile, fibrinolytic time and clinical outcomes were not affected.
Cost and pollution by the use of xylene in cervical cytology in four Peruvian hospitals
Authors: Moya-Salazar Jeel , Salazar-Hernández Richard , Rojas-Zumaran Victor , Cruz-Gonzales Gloria , Contreras-Pulache Hans
Published: June 2022

Background: Cytological samples are cleared with xylene in two or three baths during a Pap test, however, this solvent has a high degree of toxicity, and being a controlled reagent infers high costs for its purchase and implications for environmental pollution. We estimated the impact of xylene during the Pap test in terms of the number of liters and cost of two baths of xylene, and also estimated the impact with three baths 

Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in four hospitals of EsSalud in Peru in two stages. First, the analysis of the impact due to the use of two baths of xylene was conducted during the period 2015–2019, and second, the estimates were calculated based on the assumption of three baths of xylene for the years 2020–2025. The assumption was based on the recommendations of the 2018 EsSalud cytology guideline. The monthly amount of xylene was ~10 liters per bath/month and the cost per liter was estimated at 8.13 USD (27 soles). 

Results: For the staining of 594,898 cytology tests, 7,848 liters of xylene were necessary, resulting in a cost of 60,861 USD (202,068 soles) during the period 2015–2019. The estimates showed a maximum assumption of 9,483 liters and 77,110 USD (256,040 soles) for the use of three baths of xylene in the four EsSalud hospitals (p = 0.0025) during the period 2020–2025.  

Conclusions: We determined that there was a high economic impact of using xylene with two baths from 2015 to 2019 and a dramatic increase in costs with the possible use of three baths of xylene in the Pap test for the following five years.

Published: June 2022

Neste artigo, a partir de revisão bibliográfica, analisa-se o controle judicial na fase homologatória dos acordos de colaboração premiada. Embora a Lei n. 13.964/2019 tenha alterado substancialmente o regramento do instituto, pormenorizando os espaços de atuação do julgador na fase de homologação, notadamente quanto à necessidade de verificação dos aspectos formais da delação – regularidade, legalidade, adequação e voluntariedade –, deixou de prever as balizas para realização do juízo de prelibação dos pactos. Isso acarreta riscos à indispensável vinculação do julgador, no momento do sentenciamento, aos termos do negócio jurídico homologado. Portanto, almeja-se responder ao seguinte problema: quais são os limites do controle judicial sobre o mérito do acordo de colaboração premiada no momento da homologação? Após assentar o conceito de juízo homologatório e os poderes do magistrado em tal momento, sustentar-se-á a tese de que a análise perfunctória dos elementos probatórios perpassa pelo controle acerca da concreta identificação dos fatos, idônea definição das capitulações jurídicas e coerente verificação da relevância, utilidade e interesse público dos acordos, tendo por base os parâmetros legais previstos no artigo 3º-B, § 4º, da Lei n. 12.850/2013. Assim, busca-se alcançar maior segurança jurídica e previsibilidade na utilização do instituto da colaboração premiada no sistema de justiça criminal negocial pátrio.
Self-rated health in Swedish pregnant women: a comprehensive population register study
Authors: Khalaf Atika , Johansson Marianne , Ghani Rania Mahmoud Abdel , Ny Pernilla
Published: June 2022

Background/Aims

Sociodemographic factors are associated with perceived overall health status or ‘self-rated health’. However, research using data from the comprehensive population register in Sweden to examine self-rated health in pregnant women is limited. This study aimed to examine sociodemographic factors associated with self-rated health before, during and after pregnancy in low-risk pregnant women, based on comprehensive population register data in Sweden.

Methods

This was a retrospective analysis of the Swedish pregnancy register (Graviditets registret). Data from 167 523 women were tested with group comparisons and ordinal regression analyses.

Results

Women between the ages of 25 and 29 years and primiparas were less likely to self-rate their health lower. Women born outside Scandinavia, those whose education did not reach university level, jobseekers, those on parental leave and students were more likely to report lower self-rated health. Women with risky behaviours, such as alcohol consumption and those who smoked and/or snuffed were more likely to report lower self-rated health.

Conclusions

The findings indicate that preventive and health promoting actions in the midwifery profession should build on awareness of possible associated sociodemographic factors.
Supporting women with diabetes to breastfeed: use of antenatal breastmilk expression
Authors: Glavey Meadhbh , Fallon Anne
Published: June 2022

Background

Antenatal breastmilk expression is recommended in many practice settings to overcome challenges to breastfeeding for women with diabetes.

Aim

This narrative literature review aimed to examine how antenatal breastmilk expression supports women with diabetes to breastfeed.

Methods

A search was undertaken of the CINAHL database, Scopus, Medline, Excerpta Medica DataBASE and the Cochrane Library to identify quantitative and qualitative primary research studies. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria.

Results

Findings were examined within a framework of informational, emotional and motivational and practical aspects of antenatal breastmilk expression. Information on infant wellbeing is important, as concerns about admission to neonatal care have emerged. However, for women at low risk of complications, their infants were not at greater risk of being admitted to neonatal care following antenatal expression in comparison to standard care, and there was no evidence of increased neonatal hypoglycaemia. Emotional support is important, as although the experience is rewarding it can also be challenging. Breastfeeding rates were higher following antenatal expression, although the differences were not always statistically significant. Practical aspects, including the optimum gestation at commencement, require further research.

Conclusions

Although the evidence is not conclusive on how antenatal breastmilk expression can support women with diabetes to breastfeed, the results are promising.

Ethical considerations during a pioneering surgical procedure: porcine cardiac xenotransplantation
Authors: Odonkor Patrick , Strauss Erik , Williams Brittney
Published: June 2022

Preclinical advances in life-sustaining porcine cardiac xenotransplantation from donor pigs to baboons have paved the way for the performance of porcine cardiac xenotransplantation in a human. This procedure was performed with emergency use authorisation granted by the United States Food and Drug Administration under the umbrella of investigational new drug use on compassionate grounds. The patient was denied candidacy for durable mechanical circulatory support and heart transplantation as a result of non-adherence to medical advice.

Successful porcine cardiac xenotransplantation in humans will significantly increase the availability of potential donor organs for long-term management of end-stage heart failure. Human porcine cardiac xenotransplantation is associated with ethical conflicts encompassing multiple ethical principles which are not mutually exclusive and are sometimes conflicting. This article focuses on some of the ethical conflicts encountered in relation to the use of mechanical circulatory support, pretransplant evaluation, shared decision making during informed consent, infectious disease risk, preclinical and clinical testing, and the role of regulatory bodies during performance of the first human porcine cardiac xenotransplantation.

An increase in human trials of xenotransplantation procedures is imminent. Potential ethical conflicts associated with xenotransplantation should be addressed appropriately.

Improving patients' skin quality using skin boosters in aesthetic practice
Authors: Guinan Lorraine
Published: June 2022

Improving skin quality can have a huge impact on the way that patients feel about their appearance. During ageing, there is a disruption to the normal organisation of skin cells, and its overall capacity for repair is reduced. The main component of skin boosters is hyaluronic acid, and, with its known hydrophilic properties, skin boosters are used to improve skin hydration. They also have some biomedical and tissue regeneration potential. These treatments have become very popular and, therefore, as a practitioner, it is useful to be able to offer these treatments to patients. Patient selection and managing expectations are extremely important, as well as knowledge of products and how to use them safely and effectively. Incorporating skin boosters into an aesthetic practice can provide the opportunity to assist patients with improving their skin quality, and they can be offered to a wide range of patients of various ages and skin types.

Students' experience and perceived value of a clinical simulation centre
Authors: Mortimer Craig , Ooms Ann
Published: June 2022

Background:

The emergence of new technology and innovation has seen dedicated simulation centres being designed and built to assist with the development of a range of professionals within the ever-changing healthcare setting. Focusing on the university environment, this study examined the extent to which paramedic students perceive these simulation centres as efficient and effective learning spaces.

Methods:

Using evaluation research, data were collected from 33 students studying paramedic science at a London university. An online questionnaire was used to measure student engagement, perceived value, impact and sustainability of a simulation centre.

Findings:

Participants primarily perceived the simulation centre as having high value and a good impact on their learning and development, although some concerns were raised regarding its utilisation and general usability.

Conclusion:

While large-scale simulation centres seem beneficial to learning, they need to be fully integrated into the curriculum to maximise their impact on preparing students for their forthcoming role.

Published: June 2022

A compact 200 W level diode-side-pumped microsecond (µs) pulse linearly polarized rod Nd:YAG laser oscillator was demonstrated with nearly diffraction-limited beam quality. The oscillator was based on a thermally near-unstable cavity design with two concave lenses in the cavity to enlarge the volume of the fundamental mode, leading to improvement of the laser efficiency and beam quality. Consequently, a record-high average power of 222 W was obtained at a repetition rate of 400 Hz with a 180 µs pulse width, corresponding to an optical-to-optical (o-o) conversion efficiency of 37%. The average beam quality factor was measured to be

Authors: Shen Yuliang , Kewei E. , Fu Xing , Wang Dongguang , Hou Junfeng , Liang Ming , Xu Songbo
Published: June 2022

The accurate infrared solar magnetic field measurement system (AIMS) is a 1 m off-axis Gregorian alt-azimuth solar telescope and will be dedicated to measuring the solar magnetic field in mid-infrared. How to align the large-aperture off-axis system is a significant issue. Sub-aperture stitching with the small-aperture standard flat mirror can be applied to the alignment of the large-aperture off-axis system. However, this method is time-consuming and inefficient. We propose an alignment method based on the Zernike polynomials of the central small aperture to solve the low efficiency of sub-aperture stitching. Theoretical simulation shows that the RMS residual error of the system after using the central small-aperture alignment method will be less than

Efficacy of common disinfection processes against infective spores (arthroconidia) and mycelia of Microsporum gallinae causing avian dermatophytosis
Authors: Thongkham Eakachai , Junnu Sucheeva , Borlace Glenn Neville , Uopasai Suwit , Aiemsaard Jareerat
Published: June 2022

Background and Aim: Microsporum gallinae is the major dermatophyte species that causes avian dermatophytosis. Disinfection plays an important role in controlling and preventing dermatophytosis; however, information about the effect of common disinfection processes on M. gallinae is limited. This study aimed to investigate the disinfection efficacy of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, heat treatment, detergents, and germicides against infective spores (arthroconidia) and vegetative mycelia of M. gallinae.

Materials and Methods: The minimum inhibitory and minimum fungicidal concentrations of benzalkonium chloride, chlorhexidine, ethanol, formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, phenol, povidone-iodine, and sodium hypochlorite germicides against arthroconidia and mycelia of M. gallinae American type culture collection (ATCC) 90749 were determined by broth microdilution. Time-kill assays were used to determine the fungicidal efficacy of moist heat treatment, UV irradiation, commercially available detergents, and germicides.

Results: There were no significant differences between the arthroconidia and mycelia growth stages of M. gallinae ATCC 90749 in the magnitude of the log10 cell reductions in the number of viable fungal cells induced by the disinfection treatments (all p > 0.05). Moist heat treatment at 40°C did not reduce the number of viable fungal cells at any time (1–60 min); however, treatment at 50°C for 25 min and either 60°C or 80°C for 5 min eliminated > 99.999% of viable fungal cells. Irradiation of fungal cultures with UVC and UVB at doses higher than or equal to 0.4 and 0.8 J/cm2, respectively, resulted in a 5-log10 reduction in the number of viable fungal cells, whereas UVA only reduced the number of viable fungal cells by < 2-log10 up to a dose of 1.6 J/cm2. All the tested detergents demonstrated minimal fungicidal effects with < 1-log10 reductions in the number of viable fungal cells at concentrations up to 8% w/v. All of the tested germicides eradicated the fungus after treatment for 1 min at 1–1000× minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), except for hydrogen peroxide, which was not fungicidal after treatment for 20 min at 100× MIC.

Conclusion: Moist heat treatment at temperatures greater than or equal to 50°C, UVC and UVB irradiation at doses higher than or equal to 0.4 and 0.8 J/cm2, respectively, and treatment with all tested germicides except hydrogen peroxide can be considered effective processes for disinfecting the fungus M. gallinae from the equipment employed in poultry farming. In contrast, commercially available detergents are not suitable for use as M. gallinae disinfectants.

Teaching historical thinking in practice: a study of US history teachers’ views on using primary sources in AP and IB history lessons
Authors: Soininen Susanna
Published: June 2022

Analysis of primary sources has been recognised to have a significant impact on the development of students’ historical thinking. This study explored US history teachers’ attitudes and practices to using primary sources by interviewing six history teachers and observing 29 history lessons between August and November 2016 in Indiana and California. The main focus of the study was on the views of International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme and Advancement Placement (AP) history teachers. Results indicated that all teachers valued the use of primary sources and most of them used sources frequently. Notable was the deficiency of source evaluation in AP and Regular history lessons in those schools which did not offer the IB Programme. The IB teachers mentioned source evaluation as a part of the source work throughout, and emphasised the importance of the IB format and other pedagogical support provided by the International Baccalaureate Organization in the use of sources.
De los surcos a los libros. Representaciones sobre campo, familia e infancia en manuales escolares (Argentina, décadas 1940-1960)
Authors: De Marco Celeste
Published: June 2022

This study aims to shed light on how countryside, family and rural childhood were represented in school manuals for the third to sixth grade of primary school from 1940-1960, in Argentina, where traditionally the rural aspect was touted as an inherent feature in multiple senses. The historical period in question is significant because it encompassed the political transformations that lead from the conservatism of the 1930s to Peronism (1946-1955), through a break with democracy and truncated developmentalist proposals. This allows us to suppose, a priori, that the pedagogical materials would have been tools for reinforcing certain concepts. Based on a qualitative approach, a critical analysis of the frequency and tone of the appearance of rural scenarios, activities and subjects in the texts and images of primary sources was carried out. This analysis revealed certain recurrent topics linked to the countryside and rural life that were configured based on opposition. Rural childhood, initially scarcely portrayed, would progressively begin to appear. However, it was often shot through by various traditional characteristics that served to retain the infant subject at the periphery of an androcentric and adult-centered rural story.
Espaço, Saberes e Tempo escolar nos relatórios da Instrução Pública e Particular da Província de Alagoas, Brasil (1866-1868)
Authors: Silva Edgleide de Oliveira Clemente da
Published: June 2022

This study analyzes the context of space, knowledge and school time present in the public and private education reports of the province of Alagoas, written by the physician Thomaz do Bomfim Espindola (1832-1889) in the 19th century. These reports were the result of his role as Inspector General of Studies in the years 1866 to 1868. These writings include themes such as poor teacher qualifications, poor application of learning methods, abandonment of physical education, moral education, and religious education. quantitative figures on the number of private and public primary and secondary schools, teacher hiring, replacement and dismissal, among other subjects. As a member of the Liberal Party of Alagoas, Espindola held the positions of provincial deputy from 1860-1861, 1864-1865 and 1866-1867, deputy general from 1878 to 1881 and from 1881 to 1884, and interim president in the same province in 1867 and 1878. In Education, he worked as a teacher of Geography, Chronology and History at the Alagoas High School, Hygiene at the High School of Arts and Crafts and Philosophy at São Bernardo High School. He was consulted to propose changes in Brazilian education by drafting the opinions of the «Reform of Primary Education and Various Complementary Institutions of Public Education» (1882) and the «Reform of Secondary and Higher Education» (1883) together with Rui Barbosa and Ulysses Vianna. Therefore, the analysis of the theoretical relationships of space, knowledge and school time of public and private education in the province of Alagoas contributes to the understanding of the advances and the limits of the school formation of the Brazilian Empire.
La veta orteguiana y franquista en las leyes orgánicas de la Universidad de Puebla, México, 1937 y 1941
Authors: Márquez Carrillo Jesús
Published: June 2022

Having regard the political history of education and the cultural history of ideas, in this paper I propose to explain the way in which local power obtained political control from the University and and I also want to show the presence of Spanish conservative thought, following the ideas of José Ortega y Gasset and the Francoists about the «mission» of the University. For this, on the one hand I describe the configuration of the new Mexican State and in the regional political context, the political and cultural consolidation of the avilacamachista chiefdom. Then, in a second moment, I describe and analyze the organic laws of the University passed in 1937 and 1941 and their respective exhibitions of reasons. What interests me to emphasize in the conclusions is the permanence in the University of traditional cultural practices identified with conservative thinking, not only due to legislation that in 1941 was proposed to «copy» the Francoist university model, but also thanks to the predominance of a group of Catholic militants whose sympathies for Franco were evident and also because chiefdom was able to control and reduce the political influence of other groups. The article is based on interviews with survivors of the time, archival and printed sources and biblio-hemerographic references.

Regenerationist school practice: The model of traditional pedagogical renovation of teachers during Spain’s Second Republic
Authors: Menguiano Rodríguez Carlos , Del Pozo Andrés María del Mar
Published: June 2022

This article attempts to establish the model of traditional pedagogical renovation that persisted among Spanish teachers in the 1930s: the regenerationist model. The origins of this model can be found in the social movement of nineteenth century regenerationism, which spurred a model of school practices based on the fin-de siècle concepts of encyclopedism and on the graded school. The fact that teachers active during the Second Republic continued to consider these ideas to be innovative attests to a pedagogical anachronism in school practices. In order to examine this anachronism, we have resorted to the files from the public examination of teachers competing for the position of school headteacher in 1932, and in particular, the part of the exam where teachers give an account of their professional work. Through our analysis of the narratives presented, we are able to conclude that regenerationist ideas, as well as their translation into practice, constituted an important part of the professional identity of schoolteachers during the Republic.
La liberación de las oprimidas. El neomalthusianismo y la maternidad consciente en el anarquismo femenino
Authors: Sánchez Blanco Laura
Published: June 2022

During the 19th century, Malthus’s theory was supported by various sectors of Spanish society, such as the Church and the Bourgeoisie, because this was how they justified the social inequalities of the proletariat. However, starting in the 20th century, Spanish anarchists tried to remedy the population problem through a new Malthusianism that offered other preventive remedies to the working class, such as conscious motherhood classes. Added to the need to reduce the number of births was interest in quality of life. In this study, the theories of Birth Control and Neo-Malthusianism are examined in order to verify the influence they exerted on Spanish anarchism through the historical-educational method. Likewise, a historical review is made by the acratic press of the first decades of the 20th century to publicize the awareness campaigns that were directed towards women in order to achieve women’s liberation through the Belly strike and eugenic discourse, and the slogans of a conscious motherhood are analyzed, which were published, especially, in the journal Free Women. Anarchist women wrote 10 articles out of a total of 305 texts related to conscious motherhood and health problems, knowledge that was very necessary at the time to prevent diseases and reduce infant mortality, but they were not as successful as a sexual reform project.
The Uruguayan ‘68: Student Unrest and Breakdown of Democracy
Authors: Gapenne Camille
Published: June 2022

In 1968 in Uruguay, as in many countries all over the world, a student movement broke up, impulsed by the high school students and joined by university students. It began in April as a claim against an increase in the price of the bus ticket and for a better budget dedicated to education. In a context of deep economic and social crisis, these demonstrations of unrest were common. But the increasing violence of the demonstrators, the radicalization of the student collective actions and the systematization of armed repression changed its nature during the austral winter. The proclamation of the state of emergency restraining the individual liberties and several student’s deaths by the police are maybe the strongest symbols of this violence, which kept increasing until the coup d’état in 1973. In order to propose a general overview of the Uruguayan ’68, this paper will expose the global and national contexts as well as the research field on the subject. Afterward, it will focus on the local scale to present a brief account of the events. It will finally consider some opening reflections about the relation between the students and media. Based on some of our own research, we intend to propose the idea of an informational field as an object of study, as a way to consider the encounter and struggle of multiple protagonists for the construction of representations of the students’ protest. Particularly in 1968, this also implies contemplate transnational circulations of information that articulate local and global scales.
Deconstruyendo y (re)construyendo el juego de «la Bandera» de Baden-Powell
Authors: Ros Olmo Antonio , Torrebadella Flix Xavier
Published: June 2022

Durante décadas el tradicional juego de «la Bandera» de Robert Baden Powell ha sido portador de códigos nacionalizadores y normas disciplinares de la masculinidad. A través de una interpretación genealógica y deconstructiva de este juego se presenta una hipótesis didáctica teorizante y abierta (sin concretar) para la educación, que trata de invertir la finalidad originaria del citado juego. El objetivo es el de conocer origen del juego de la Bandera, su incorporación en la pedagogía escolar y el analizar su lógica interna y externa. Ello permite la posibilidad de cambiar la visión tradicional del juego y otorgar un giro conceptual y didáctico crítico a través de una propuesta más abierta. La metodología se sustenta en la revisión bibliográfica de fuentes primarias o libros antiguos donde se hallan descritos los rasgos del juego y sus variantes. Las fuentes secundarias permiten considerar el estado de la cuestión y la hermenéutica desde una visión constructivista y de la Teoría Crítica. Finalmente, y como conclusión, se invita a reflexionar a los docentes sobre las (im)posibilidades para consentir un giro didáctico a este tipo de juegos que son depositarios de elementos y disciplinarios guardianes de la tradición, es decir, suscitar una re-contextualización crítica de la utilización de este tipo de juegos en la educación física escolar.
Profesionales híbridos: nuevas configuraciones del profesionalismo docente en el contexto político neoliberal
Authors: Molina-Pérez Javier , Luengo Navas Julián Jesús
Published: June 2022

La profesión docente ocupa un espacio central en los debates contemporáneos en el ámbito de la política educativa. Este artículo pretende comprender las transformaciones que puede estar experimentando el profesionalismo docente como consecuencia de las exigencias que plantean las prácticas políticas de la Nueva Gestión Pública (NGP). Para ello, se utiliza un enfoque metodológico cualitativo que combina las teorías de los participantes, las teorías de los investigadores y las teorías formales existentes. Concretado en un método inductivo, se sigue la propuesta de la Teoría Fundamentada. Como técnica de recogida de información se utiliza la entrevista cualitativa. Dieciséis han sido los participantes de la investigación: cuatro directores y doce docentes. La información ha sido analizada con el software QSR NVivo12. Los resultados muestran que el trabajo del profesorado está siendo reconfigurado. Se evidencia que las prácticas neoliberales están modificando la lógica profesional. El profesorado manifiesta un exceso de control y de desconfianza que hace el trabajo más incómodo y repercute en problemas de salud derivados del estrés que denuncian sufrir. Se experimentan contradicciones entre las convicciones profesionales y los imperativos que propone la NGP, que transforma al docente en un «técnico ejecutor». En este sentido, se evidencian nuevas formas de gestionar las tensiones a través de espacios de resistencia profesional y «adaptaciones» a las exigencias de la agenda neoliberal. Esto plantea que la tradicional dicotomía entre profesionalismo ocupacional y organizacional puede estar difuminándose, dando lugar a nuevos enfoques profesionales basados en habilidades híbridas.
La ortografía como factor de calidad en la educación superior. Datos para una reflexión
Authors: Suárez Ramírez Sergio , Cremades García Raúl , Suárez Ramírez Miriam
Published: June 2022

Cada día resulta más evidente que los problemas ortográficos se han instalado en la Universidad y que el alumnado que cursa estudios superiores muestra poco interés en paliarlos y mucho menos en erradicarlos. Todos sus escritos académicos (exámenes, trabajos, correos electrónicos, foros o mensajes a través de plataformas virtuales, etc.) están repletos de faltas. Cuando los estudios universitarios que se realizan conducen al ejercicio profesional de la docencia (infantil, primaria o secundaria) el problema es más grave, porque, si falla el referente, está en riesgo el nivel de exigencia que se le podrá pedir a niños y jóvenes. Esta evidencia no está asociada a ámbitos geográficos concretos o campus universitarios determinados, sino que constituye una característica, negativa eso sí, del universitario del segundo milenio. Un estudio comparativo llevado a cabo en tres contextos tan distintos, como las Universidades de Málaga, Extremadura y Valladolid entre el alumnado de segundo curso del Grado de Educación Primaria en las respectivas Facultades de Educación, confirman errores ortográficos parecidos, repetidos y muy abundantes, que constatan también un escaso nivel de vocabulario. Los errores de acentuación, el empleo de H-, las confusiones entre S/X o Y/LL o las dificultades ortográficas, propias de niveles primarios, caracterizan el perfil ortográfico del alumnado universitario, consecuencia más de su falta de atención e interés, que del desconocimiento de la norma gramatical. Por su parte, el profesorado universitario asiste atónito a esta realidad. La reflexión y el análisis de los errores cometidos entre el propio alumnado pueden contribuir a su disminución.
La educación política. Aproximación histórica y sistemática
Authors: Luque David
Published: June 2022

La introducción de este artículo se sitúa en la convulsa vida política actual. Más concretamente, en conocer lo que dice la pedagogía sobre la educación política y cuáles son los elementos necesarios para configurar programas educativos. Para ello se usado un método pluridisciplinar que configura las dos partes del artículo. La primera, entre la historia de la educación y la filosofía educativa, realiza una relectura de las teorías educativas más influyentes. La segunda, entre la filosofía educativa y el pensamiento didáctico, revela las correlaciones más intensas de todas las teorías educativas para proponer unas líneas inexcusables para cualquier propuesta didáctica. De manera que la discusión también se divide en dos grupos. Las discusiones internas de cada una de las teorías educativas y el análisis de las líneas de confluencia en diálogo con las aportaciones actuales de la comunidad científica. La conclusión que se alcanza es que es posible hablar de unos elementos comunes a todas las teorías educativas toda vez que la pedagogía ha adquirido una vida interna rica e independiente de los vaivenes de la vida política.

Published: June 2022

El propósito de la investigación es analizar el grado de relación e influencia de la inteligencia emocional, la inteligencia cultural y el compromiso académico con la satisfacción profesional de estudiantes universitarios de movilidad académica internacional del Estado de Guanajuato, México. El diseño metodológico fue cuantitativo, explicativo, observacional, correlacional y transversal. Se empleó una muestra de 212 estudiantes de 22 universidades públicas y privadas del estado de Guanajuato, México. Para la comprobación de hipótesis, se desarrolló un modelo de ecuación estructural (SEM) bajo el software estadístico Amos v. 21 y el SPSS v.21 para el análisis de la información. En cuanto a los índices de bondad y ajuste del SEM (χ2=239.27, gl=99; CFI=0.909 y TLI=0.890; RMSEA=.08) fueron absolutamente aceptables. De acuerdo con los resultados obtenidos a través del SEM, se demuestra que la inteligencia cultural influye positiva y significativamente sobre la inteligencia emocional (β1=0.55; p<0.001) y el compromiso académico (β2=0.54; p<0.001). Asimismo, la inteligencia emocional (β3=0.49; p<0.001) ejerce una influencia positiva y significativa sobre la satisfacción profesional. De la misma manera, el compromiso académico (β4=0.41; p<0.001) influye positiva y significativa sobre la satisfacción profesional de los estudiantes de grado del estado de Guanajuato. Los hallazgos son relevantes y de gran valor ya que actualmente no hay suficientes investigaciones que estén enfocadas en las variables analizadas dentro del contexto mexicano. En especial para tomar acciones dentro de las universidades para mejorar la movilidad estudiantil.
Análisis crítico e histórico a la última reforma de la Educación Ciudadana en Chile y su tratamiento al problema de la pobreza
Authors: Lozic Pavez María Karina , Manzano Venegas Yerko
Published: June 2022

En 2016, enmarcada en la reciente reforma educacional chilena, se promulgó la ley 20.911 «Crea el plan de formación ciudadana para los establecimientos educacionales reconocidos por el Estado». En ese contexto, proponemos como objetivo una revisión crítica de la documentación pública afín a esta ley, poniendo especial atención en el tratamiento que ahí se da al problema de la pobreza. En términos metodológicos, hemos considerado: una revisión a la literatura histórica sobre el problema en Chile, la ley antes mencionada, las tres orientaciones técnicas que apuntan a su implementación y los contenidos en los programas de estudio de Historia, Geografía y Ciencias Sociales de secundaria. Nuestro análisis se ha basado principalmente en discusiones sobre educación cívica y filosofía contemporánea del siglo XX, con algunos autores como Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Robinson Lira y Gert Biesta. De la revisión histórica se concluye que, en algunos momentos desde fines del siglo XIX, la educación cívica en Chile ha buscado orientar las vías de participación ciudadana por canales institucionales, especialmente frente a expresiones de protesta y descontento social, lo que se ha traducido en distintas propuestas de formación cívica. Respecto al abordaje de la pobreza, su ausencia se hace más evidente que su presencia, donde su aparición está asociada a cierta utilidad económica política, lo que supone una ruptura con la continuidad que este tipo de temática había tenido en el pasado.
