Unveiling aerosol–cloud interactions – Part 2: Minimising the effects of aerosol swelling and wet scavenging in ECHAM6-HAM2 for comparison to satellite data
Authors: Neubauer David , Christensen Matthew W. , Poulsen Caroline A. , Lohmann Ulrike
Published: November 2017

Abstract. Aerosol–cloud interactions (ACIs) are uncertain and the estimates of the ACI effective radiative forcing (ERFaci) magnitude show a large variability. Within the Aerosol_cci project the susceptibility of cloud properties to changes in aerosol properties is derived from the high-resolution AATSR (Advanced Along-Track Scanning Radiometer) data set using the Cloud–Aerosol Pairing Algorithm (CAPA) (as described in our companion paper) and compared to susceptibilities from the global aerosol climate model ECHAM6-HAM2 and MODIS–CERES (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer – Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System) data. For ECHAM6-HAM2 the dry aerosol is analysed to mimic the effect of CAPA. Furthermore the analysis is done for different environmental regimes. The aerosol–liquid water path relationship in ECHAM6-HAM2 is systematically stronger than in AATSR–CAPA data and cannot be explained by an overestimation of autoconversion when using diagnostic precipitation but rather by aerosol swelling in regions where humidity is high and clouds are present. When aerosol water is removed from the analysis in ECHAM6-HAM2 the strength of the susceptibilities of liquid water path, cloud droplet number concentration and cloud albedo as well as ERFaci agree much better with those of AATSR–CAPA or MODIS–CERES. When comparing satellite-derived to model-derived susceptibilities, this study finds it more appropriate to use dry aerosol in the computation of model susceptibilities. We further find that the statistical relationships inferred from different satellite sensors (AATSR–CAPA vs. MODIS–CERES) as well as from ECHAM6-HAM2 are not always of the same sign for the tested environmental conditions. In particular the susceptibility of the liquid water path is negative in non-raining scenes for MODIS–CERES but positive for AATSR–CAPA and ECHAM6-HAM2. Feedback processes like cloud-top entrainment that are missing or not well represented in the model are therefore not well constrained by satellite observations. In addition to aerosol swelling, wet scavenging and aerosol processing have an impact on liquid water path, cloud albedo and cloud droplet number susceptibilities. Aerosol processing leads to negative liquid water path susceptibilities to changes in aerosol index (AI) in ECHAM6-HAM2, likely due to aerosol-size changes by aerosol processing. Our results indicate that for statistical analysis of aerosol–cloud interactions the unwanted effects of aerosol swelling, wet scavenging and aerosol processing need to be minimised when computing susceptibilities of cloud variables to changes in aerosol.

Abstract. Abstract Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) could provide a cost-effective way to close gaps in the observation of the carbon cycle, provided that small yet accurate analysers are available. We have developed a COmpact Carbon dioxide analyser for Airborne Platforms (COCAP). The accuracy of COCAP's carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements is ensured by calibration in an environmental chamber, regular calibration in the field and by chemical drying of sampled air. In addition, the package contains a lightweight thermal stabilisation system that reduces the influence of ambient temperature changes on the CO2 sensor by two orders of magnitude. During validation of COCAP's CO2 measurements in simulated and real flights we found a measurement error of 1.2 μmol mol−1 or better with no indication of bias. COCAP is a self-contained package that has proven well suited for the operation on board small UAS. Besides carbon dioxide dry air mole fraction it also measures air temperature, humidity and pressure. We describe the measurement system and our calibration strategy in detail to support others in tapping the potential of UAS for atmospheric trace gas measurements.
Impacts of temperature extremes on European vegetation during the growing season

Published: November 2017

Abstract. Temperature is a key factor controlling plant growth and vitality in the temperate climates of the mid-latitudes like in vast parts of the European continent. Beyond the effect of average conditions, the timings and magnitudes of temperature extremes play a particularly crucial role, which needs to be better understood in the context of projected future rises in the frequency and/or intensity of such events. In this work, we employ event coincidence analysis (ECA) to quantify the likelihood of simultaneous occurrences of extremes in daytime land surface temperature anomalies (LSTAD) and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). We perform this analysis for entire Europe based upon remote sensing data, differentiating between three periods corresponding to different stages of plant development during the growing season. In addition, we analyze the typical elevation and land cover type of the regions showing significantly large event coincidences rates to identify the most severely affected vegetation types. Our results reveal distinct spatio-temporal impact patterns in terms of extraordinarily large co-occurrence rates between several combinations of temperature and NDVI extremes. Croplands are among the most frequently affected land cover types, while elevation is found to have only a minor effect on the spatial distribution of corresponding extreme weather impacts. These findings provide important insights into the vulnerability of European terrestrial ecosystems to extreme temperature events and demonstrate how event-based statistics like ECA can provide a valuable perspective on environmental nexuses.

Published: November 2017

Abstract. The Paris Agreement proposes a 1.5 °C target to limit the increase in global mean temperature (GMT). Studying the population exposure to droughts under this 1.5 °C target will be helpful in guiding new policies that mitigate and adapt to disaster risks under climate change. Based on simulations from the inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project (ISI-MIP), the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) was used to calculate drought frequencies in the reference period and 1.5 °C global warming scenario. Then population exposure was evaluated by combining drought frequency with simulated population data from shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs). In addition, the relative importance of climate and demographic change and the cumulative probability of exposure change were analyzed. Results revealed that population exposure to droughts on the east side of the Hu line is much more than on the west side; exposure in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River region is the highest and lowest in the Qinghai-Tibet region. An additional 6.97 million people will be exposed to droughts under the 1.5 °C global warming scenario relative to the reference period. Demographic change is the primary contributor to exposure (79.95 %) in the 1.5 °C global warming scenario, more than climate change (29.93 %) or the interaction effect (−9.88 %). Of the three drought intensities, mild, moderate, and extreme, moderate droughts contribute the most to exposure (63.59 %). The frequency of extreme droughts is likely to decrease (71.83 % probability), while mild and moderate droughts may increase slightly (55.17 % and 51.71 % probability, respectively) in the 1.5 °C global warming scenario.

Abstract. Two interglacial epochs are included in the suite of Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project (PMIP4) simulations in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). The experimental protocols for simulations of the mid-Holocene (midHolocene, 6000 years before present) and the Last Interglacial (lig127k, 127 000 years before present) are described here. These equilibrium simulations are designed to examine the impact of changes in orbital forcing at times when atmospheric greenhouse gas levels were similar to those of the preindustrial period and the continental configurations were almost identical to modern ones. These simulations test our understanding of the interplay between radiative forcing and atmospheric circulation, and the connections among large-scale and regional climate changes giving rise to phenomena such as land–sea contrast and high-latitude amplification in temperature changes, and responses of the monsoons, as compared to today. They also provide an opportunity, through carefully designed additional sensitivity experiments, to quantify the strength of atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere, and land-surface feedbacks. Sensitivity experiments are proposed to investigate the role of freshwater forcing in triggering abrupt climate changes within interglacial epochs. These feedback experiments naturally lead to a focus on climate evolution during interglacial periods, which will be examined through transient experiments. Analyses of the sensitivity simulations will also focus on interactions between extratropical and tropical circulation, and the relationship between changes in mean climate state and climate variability on annual to multi-decadal timescales. The comparative abundance of paleoenvironmental data and of quantitative climate reconstructions for the Holocene and Last Interglacial make these two epochs ideal candidates for systematic evaluation of model performance, and such comparisons will shed new light on the importance of external feedbacks (e.g., vegetation, dust) and the ability of state-of-the-art models to simulate climate changes realistically.

Abstract. The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, 21 000 years ago) is one of the suite of paleoclimate simulations included in the current phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). It is an interval when insolation was similar to the present, but global ice volume was at a maximum, eustatic sea level was at or close to a minimum, greenhouse gas concentrations were lower, atmospheric aerosol loadings were higher than today, and vegetation and land-surface characteristics were different from today. The LGM has been a focus for the Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project (PMIP) since its inception, and thus many of the problems that might be associated with simulating such a radically different climate are well documented. The LGM state provides an ideal case study for evaluating climate model performance because the changes in forcing and temperature between the LGM and pre-industrial are of the same order of magnitude as those projected for the end of the 21st century. Thus, the CMIP6 LGM experiment could provide additional information that can be used to constrain estimates of climate sensitivity. The design of the Tier 1 LGM experiment (lgm) includes an assessment of uncertainties in boundary conditions, in particular through the use of different reconstructions of the ice sheets and of the change in dust forcing. Additional (Tier 2) sensitivity experiments have been designed to quantify feedbacks associated with land-surface changes and aerosol loadings, and to isolate the role of individual forcings. Model analysis and evaluation will capitalize on the relative abundance of paleoenvironmental observations and quantitative climate reconstructions already available for the LGM.

Published: November 2017

Abstract. An analysis to evaluate the impact of multiple radar reflectivity data with a three-dimensional variational (3-D-Var) assimilation system on a heavy precipitation event is presented. The main goal is to build a regionally tuned numerical prediction model and a decision-support system for environmental civil protection services and demonstrate it in the central Italian regions, distinguishing which type of observations, conventional and not (or a combination of them), is more effective in improving the accuracy of the forecasted rainfall. In that respect, during the first special observation period (SOP1) of HyMeX (Hydrological cycle in the Mediterranean Experiment) campaign several intensive observing periods (IOPs) were launched and nine of which occurred in Italy. Among them, IOP4 is chosen for this study because of its low predictability regarding the exact location and amount of precipitation. This event hit central Italy on 14 September 2012 producing heavy precipitation and causing several cases of damage to buildings, infrastructure, and roads. Reflectivity data taken from three C-band Doppler radars running operationally during the event are assimilated using the 3-D-Var technique to improve high-resolution initial conditions. In order to evaluate the impact of the assimilation procedure at different horizontal resolutions and to assess the impact of assimilating reflectivity data from multiple radars, several experiments using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model are performed. Finally, traditional verification scores such as accuracy, equitable threat score, false alarm ratio, and frequency bias – interpreted by analysing their uncertainty through bootstrap confidence intervals (CIs) – are used to objectively compare the experiments, using rain gauge data as a benchmark.
A note on the influence of atmospheric model resolution in coupled
climate–ice-sheet simulations
Authors: Löfverström Marcus , Liakka Johan
Published: November 2017

Abstract. Coupled climate–ice-sheet simulations have been growing in popularity in recent years. Experiments of this type are however challenging as ice sheets evolve over multi-millennial time scales, which is beyond the practical integration limit for most Earth-system models. A common method to increase model throughput is to trade resolution for computational efficiency (compromises accuracy for speed). Here, we analyze how the resolution of an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) influences the simulation quality of a standalone ice-sheet model. Four identical AGCM simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) were run at different horizontal resolutions: T85 (1.4°), T42 (2.8°), T31 (3.8°), and T21 (5.6°). These simulations were subsequently used as forcing of an ice-sheet model. While the T85 climate forcing reproduces the LGM ice sheets to a high accuracy, the intermediate resolution cases (T42 and T31) fail to build the Eurasian Ice Sheet. The T21 case fails in both Eurasia and North America. Sensitivity experiments using different surface mass balance parameterizations improve the simulations of the Eurasian ice-sheet in the T42 case, but the compromise is a substantial ice buildup in Siberia. The T31 and T21 cases are not improving in the same way in Eurasia, though the latter simulates the continent-wide Laurentide Ice Sheet in North America. The difficulty to reproduce the LGM ice sheets in the T21 case is in broad agreement with previous studies using low-resolution atmospheric models, and is caused by a deterioration of the atmospheric climate between the T31 and T21 resolutions. It is speculated that this deficiency may demonstrate a fundamental problem using low-resolution atmospheric models in these types of experiments.

A new device named technology-plasmonics has recently emerged and can be used to manipulate light at the nano-scale level. Here, we report the method of two-photon photopolymerization for rapid laser direct writing of plasmonic components. The characterization of these components is performed by a leakage radiation microscope, which has the same system construction as the two-photon photopolymerization micro-fabrication system except the laser pattern. The dielectric structures covered with gold proved to be very efficient for the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons in this system and can achieve different plasmon fields.

Published: November 2017

Educators have always highlighted the importance of mathematics mastery in education for many years. With the current emphasis of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEMs) education, mathematics mastery is even more vital because it supports the learning and mastery of science fields such as engineering and science. Furthermore, in higher education, mathematics is essential because majority of the courses require the use of mathematical concepts in their learning. In recent years, many countries including Malaysia have seen an increase in the enrolment number of tertiary students. The increase in student enrolment has resulted in a population of students with diverse abilities, and this creates challenges for educators in providing instruction to the students. Educators need to detect students’ mathematical ability at an early stage before teaching them new content. One way to gather information about students’ basic mathematics skill is through the use of diagnostic test. Diagnostic test in education is a preliminary assessment mainly used to detect students’ strengths and weaknesses in learning. It allows educators to cater their teaching style and content to suit to the students’ basic knowledge. With researches indicating the importance and benefits of using diagnostic test in various subjects, it is important to further examine the use of diagnostic test in the local context of pre-university studies. This study investigated the relationship between students’ mathematics diagnostic test results and final mathematics examination performances at a public pre-university programme. The samples of the study consisted of 250 pre-university students and the data of the study were collected through a mathematics diagnostic test paper, a questionnaire and a final mathematics examination. The outcomes of the study show that there was a strong positive correlation between mathematics diagnostic test results and students’ mathematics achievement in pre-university.

Published: November 2017

In recent years, videos have become significant aspects of learning experience. Learning now occurs in a variety of ways through different communities of practice and personal networks. This is true for learning in design arena. Architectural design education consists of theoretical and practical courses aiming at contribution to the society at social and cultural levels. With the advent
of globalization another aim has become contribution to the society at international level. International workshops are held frequently between architectural schools resulting in outstanding success and sharing.
This paper is about an international workshop titled “In the Pursuit of Sinan” held in Ýstanbul in January 2015. Students from BAU FA&D and UPC ETSAB were asked to create a stop motion video of the two cities they visited. Going through Sinan’s works while walking around the city, in Ýstanbul and Edirne, Turkish and Spanish students encountered both cities with all their senses and voiced tales of two cities in stop motion video format.
Obituario de la casa: la vivienda como experiencia

Published: November 2017

Obituario pretende reconocer el desuso y lo que ha dejado de existir en la casa (intrínseco o no), para describir luego todas esas cualidades inactivas y refundar la idea nuevamente. La estructura teórica-práctica del curso de Proyectos de Arquitectura VII (4to año carrera de 5) está centrada en el desarrollo de un proyecto
de vivienda social colectiva. La idea del método es redescubrir esa casa que tenemos y a partir de ese momento re-diseñarla. Se les enseña que la práctica
pedagógica (experiencia) del arquitecto se hace siempre desde lo ya construido, midiendo, dibujando, diseñando; a entender la vivienda desde la experiencia misma del cómo habitamos, haciéndonos partícipes del proceso mientras reformamos lo ya construido, lo ya habitado. Este acercamiento didáctico- pedagógico propone conducirlos a que sean ellos mismos los que produzcan sus propias herramientas de diseño, incentivarlos a manejar -mediante la práctica misma del habitar -lo que corresponde o no al lugar.

Obituary aims to recognize disuse and has ceased to exist in the house (intrinsic or not) and then describe all these dormant qualities and refound the idea again. The structure (theoretical and practical) of the Project of Architectural Design VII (fourth year of five) focuses on the development of a social collective housing project.The
idea of the method is to rediscover this house we already have and there after redesign it. They are taught that teaching practice (experience ) of the architect is always made from the already built, measuring, drawing, designing; understand the housing from the same experience of how to live, making us partakers of the
process as we reform the already built , which already inhabited. This educational didactic approach proposes lead to they themselves produce their own design tools,
encourage them to manage -through the same practice of dwelling -which fits with the place.
El ejemplo da la regla: máquinas de sentido en la docencia de proyectos
Authors: Vela Castillo José
Published: November 2017

Lógica doble de la ejemplaridad: un ejemplo es siempre, y a la vez, un ejemplo, único y singular, un ejemplar, y un ejemplo a imitar, repetible y múltiple, ejemplar. Una regla que se da en la singularidad de lo particular pero que no
obstante se da a su vez como regla a otras ingularidades. Fruto de una investigación en marcha comenzada hace tiempo sobre las figuras de sentido en la docencia de proyectos arquitectónicos, se presenta aquí una reflexión sobre la cuestión del modelo o paradigma como proyecto de arquitectura. Una serie de figuras ejemplares extraídas de la docencia, articularán esta investigación en su
parte más pragmática. Estas figuras, a su vez, funcionan como ejemplos de una lógica paradigmática que busca iluminar, en las articulaciones entre regla y modelo, no solo un panorama docente, proyectual y arquitectónico sino lo que Giorgio Agamben llama “un contexto histórico-problemático más vasto”.

Two folded logic of exemplarity: an example, being precisely an example, is always singular and unique: exemplar; and at the same time an example is always an example to imitate, repeatable and multiple, many examples to follow: exemplary. This paper presents some partial results of an ongoing investigation undertaken by the author that tries to uncover the figures of sense forged in the design studio teaching. The paper will propose some examples of this logic that stems from the design studio workshop. Of course, those examples, in turn, exemplify the paradigmatical logic that they try to illuminate, a logic in between the subtle articulations that link both rule and model, a logic that ultimately throws light into what Giorgio Agamben calls “a broader historical-problematic context”.

Desde la docencia de la asignatura de Teoría de la Arquitectura, impartida en la ETSA de A Coruña, hemos impulsado una estructura docente de la materia basada en un acercamiento entre teoría y proyecto. Diversas arquitecturas atractivas para la sensibilidad contemporánea de nuestros alumnos son analizadas a través de las ideas formuladas en otras épocas históricas, en ocasiones como negación de lo propuesto y, en otras, en una perfecta sintonía conceptual que ha trascendido el tiempo histórico en el que problema y solución fueron teorizados. Se introduce la interacción entre distintas disciplinas como herramienta para el enriquecimiento del proyecto arquitectónico y se hacen lecturas transversales de conceptos aplicados en contextos diversos.
El objetivo de este esfuerzo analítico está enfocado a la dotación de herramientas creativas para su aplicación en el proceso arquitectónico a partir de la teoría de la arquitectura, necesariamente leída desde el propio tiempo.

In the subject of Theory of Architecture, in the School of Architecture of A Coruña, we have promoted an educational initiative based on an approach between theory and project. Some attractive architectures to the contemporary sensibility of our students are analysed through concepts from historical moments, sometimes against these and others, in a perfect conceptual harmony
that has transcended the time where problems and solutions were theorized. The interaction among different disciplines is presented as a tool to the enrichment of
the architectural project and transversal approaches are proposed in different contexts.
The aim of this analytical effort is focused on giving creative tools to be applied to the architectural process from the theory of architecture, necessarily understood
from the point of view of our time.
Difundir lo aprendido: razones y medios
Authors: Devesa Devesa Ricardo
Published: November 2017

La irrupción de los medios de comunicación han afectado el modo en que se construye el conocimiento. El objetivo de este artículo es el de aducir las razones
y ofrecer ejemplos de cómo los medios de difusión influyen y modifican el modo en el que aprendemos.
La metodología empleada es de base empírica, ya que toma como análisis las propias experiencias docentes desarrolladas en distintas universidades, materias
y cursos o niveles. Los hallazgos derivados de estas experiencias formativas dan razón del papel predominante que toma la incorporación de la difusión en el aprendizaje, pues la interacción entre el conocimiento adquirido y la exposición pública de sus resultados, mejoran el juicio crítico, otorgan conciencia al
estudiante de lo aprendido y disponen sus resultados al juicio de la comunidad científica y de la sociedad en su conjunto.

The irruption of the mass media has affected the way in which the knowledge is constructed. The aim of this article is adducing the reasons and offering examples of how the media of diffusion influence and modify the way in which we learn.
The methodology is based on empirical data, since it takes as analysis the own educational experiences developed in different universities, matters and courses
or levels. The findings derived from these formative experiences give reasons of the predominant role that the incorporation of the diffusion takes in the learning,
since the interaction between the acquired knowledge and the public exhibition of its results, improve the critical judgment, grant conscience to the student of what has been learned and arrange theirs results to the judgment of the scientific community and the society.
La docencia no reglada: el valor de la actitud en el aprendizaje del proyecto arquitectónico
Authors: Labarta Carlos
Published: November 2017

El aprendizaje del proyecto arquitectónico implica el desarrollo en el alumno de una determinada actitud que le impulse a la búsqueda permanente. No se trata
únicamente de obtener una serie de aptitudes definidas en una docencia reglada. Desde el Departamento de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Zaragoza se planifican toda una serie de actividades paralelas con el fin de alimentar en el alumno la inquietud investigadora. La enseñanza se basa, de este modo, en el estímulo de la actitud –y ello implica la no obligatoriedad-, sobre todo en el ámbito del proyecto arquitectónico en el que únicamente es posible producir el conocimiento desde la experiencia continuada. Una experiencia que trasciende
al estricto horario y que anima al alumno a la gratuidad, es decir, al aprendizaje gozoso más allá de las obligaciones. Este valor de la experimentación personal
permitirá forjar paulatinamente en el alumno el talante necesario para ser un buen profesional.

The learning process in architectural design implies the development in students of a certain attitude that drives them to a constant search. The aim is not only to
obtain a defined set of skills in a formal teaching. A number o parallel events are planned at the Department of Architecture of the University of Zaragoza in order
to feed the research students´concerns. Thus the teaching process is based on the stimulation of the attitude –what implies the fact of non being mandatory especially in the field of architectural design in which knowledge can be only be produced from the continuing experience. An experience that transcends the strict schedule and encourages students to a generous behaviour, that is, to the joyful learning beyond obligations. This value of personal experimentation will
gradually build in students the required mood to be a good professional.
El urbanismo de las matemáticas
Authors: Rivera Rafael , Trujillo Macarena
Published: November 2017

Los estudiantes de arquitectura participan en el aprendizaje de ciencias sociales y exactas sin que se llegue a definir con precisión su compatibilización. Las
asignaturas suelen ser compartimentos estancos, con lo que se pierde gran parte de la magia que supone la interdisciplinariedad. Sin embargo, nuestra sociedad requiere conocimientos basados en relaciones, que entiendan las vinculaciones entre áreas de conocimiento compañeras dentro de la globalidad de una profesión.
En esta comunicación presentamos El urbanismo de las matemáticas, una asignatura optativa basada en las relaciones entre matemáticas y urbanismo. El objetivo de esta asignatura es explicitar la compatibilidad entre estas disciplinas y subrayar aspectos en los que se complementen, se necesiten y se desarrollen. En definitiva, tratar de situar al urbanismo y a las matemáticas en un rango de disciplinas cuyo aprendizaje conjunto no solo puede mejorar su comprensión y
facilitar su práctica, sino que cada una refuerza la identidad de la otra.

Architecture students take part in the learning of social and exact sciences without the knowledge of their compatibility. Subjects are usually closed compartment, which do not allow cross much of the magic that multidisciplinarity involves. However, our society requires knowledge based on relationships, which understand the close links between the expertise areas belonging to the same profession.
In this communication we present The urbanism of maths, a subject based on the relationships and links between maths and urbanism. The objective of this subject is to explicit the compatibility between these disciplines and emphasize the aspects that complement and enrich them. The subject sets urbanism and mathematics in a discipline range whose joint learning can improve their comprehension and facilitate their use. The interaction between urbanism and maths exists and is a powerful tool in which each discipline reinforces the other.
Postgraduate design courses as research think tanks for cultural institutions
Authors: Paez Roger , Montes Toni
Published: November 2017

In the interest of reinforcing the relationship between academic research and professional practice, certain postgraduate design courses can serve as research
think tanks for cultural institutions or projects which may not have access to inhouse research departments, either for organic reasons or as a result of limited resources.
This approach, which we have been implementing since 2006 within the academic framework provided by Elisava’s Master's Degree in Ephemeral Architecture and Temporary Spaces, opens up a new scenario for collaboration between the academic and professional spheres through continuing alliances with different cultural institutions, where the school acts as an external research
think tank for specific projects.
Evaluación formativa y compartida en el aprendizaje de la Arquitectura
Authors: Alba-Dorado María Isabel
Published: November 2017

Nowadays, we have an scenario marked by an increasingly complex and timeconsuming formative model, which differs considerably from that which has been used until now. These changes make it necessary to rethink the existing evaluation
processes, which are going to be affected by strong changes. They are determined not only by the passage of the traditional emphasis put on the teacher and the education, to the importance that is given today to the learning and to the student as the centre of this learning process; but it also changes the purpose of evaluation, moving from the acquisition of a series of academic knowledge to the development of skills and gaining basic and more complex applied knowledge; but above all, it changes the role that evaluation has in improving these learning processes.

En la actualidad nos encontramos con un escenario marcado por un modelo formativo cada vez más complejo y extenso en el tiempo, que difiere considerablemente del que se ha venido realizando hasta ahora. Esto hace necesario repensar los actuales procesos de evaluación, los cuales se van a ver afectados por fuertes cambios. Éstos vienen determinados no sólo por el paso del tradicional énfasis puesto en la enseñanza y en el docente, a la importancia que se le asigna en la actualidad al aprendizaje y al alumno como centro de este proceso de aprendizaje; sino que también cambia el objeto de evaluación, al pasar de la adquisición de una serie de conocimientos académicos al desarrollo de unas competencias y la obtención de unos conocimientos básicos y aplicados más complejos; pero, sobre todo, cambia el papel que la evaluación tiene en la mejora de dichos procesos de aprendizaje.
