Enseñar y aprender Historia a partir del análisis de fuentes históricas. Una experiencia formativa en educación superior
Authors: Ibagón Martín Nilson Javier
Published: March 2019

Following the methodological framework of educational action-research, this article presents the results of a formative experience supported by the development of historical thinking skills in undergraduate Social Science students at Universidad La Gran Colombia, which was conducted in a Colombian history seminar as part of the curriculum of this academic program. This document, thus, analyzes the pedagogical and disciplinary potentialities derived from the treatment of strategic historical or second-order contents in the history teaching and learning process, which takes place in the initial Social Science teacher training program. It explores the educational advantages resulting from the pedagogical actions related to the development of historical skills, particularly those associated with the search, selection and analysis of historical sources. As a result, it is recommended that the teaching and learning of history in the context of undergraduate studies should not be focused on uncritical reproduction of information, but on the production of historical knowledge, a process in which the work on first and second-order sources is key.

Authors: Sastoque Gutiérrez Diana Marcela , Ávila Palet José Enrique , Olivares Olivares Silvia Lizett
Published: March 2019

Competence-based education should encourage critical thinking in students. However, an appropriate pedagogical method should be selected to guarantee results. The aim of this research was to identify the potential of the Problem-Based Learning approach to develop critical thinking skills in high school students in the area of technology and computing. Two instruments were used: Olivares and Wong’s critical thinking section of the Individual Generic Skills Test, and Charles’ rubric for written essays. The former measured the levels of critical thinking, while the latter examined the written argumentation that participants used to evaluate, interpret and explain everyday problematic situations. The results obtained from both instruments suggest a positive improvement in critical thinking disposition and written argumentation, specifically in relation to the sub-competence of explanation. The students also displayed a self-regulated attitude and adequate performance during the intervention.

Authors: Moreno Montes Mario Alonso , Rojas Galvis Luis Andrés
Published: March 2019

The purpose of this research study is to identify the factors which most influence educational coverage and quality in 944 certified and uncertified municipalities in the years 2005, 2008 and 2011. The results of this study allow one to find evidence for the degree of the development of the educational system at the municipal level in Colombia. First, a descriptive analysis is made of the Colombian educational system and its two objectives, including educational quality and coverage. A definition is given of what is understood by the term “municipality” in Colombian legislation and the concept of “certification” in education, and the following variables, grouped into factors, are described: the municipal context, public administration, educational effectiveness and public spending on education. In the second part, the certified and uncertified municipalities are classified, according to their results in educational coverage and quality. Next, the variable analysis methodology is used by means of relations, correlations and regressions, applying the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), in order to determine the variables which better explain the performance of the Colombian educational system on the municipal level.

Authors: Corsi García Luisa Josefa
Published: March 2019

This article describes the pedagogical experience of self-reflection and meta-cognition developed in a Colombian university over eleven years. The experience started with the writing of diaries for dialogue and reflection which I established with the students to help them understand their own learning process and develop learning strategies. It was later transformed into a virtual tool which enabled the students to be exposed to different learning contexts and develop a greater degree of autonomy. The results showed that the students developed skills of critical thinking and appreciated this experience as an effective learning tool.
La generación de proyectos de vida en adultos mayores. Autopercepción sobre competencias desarrolladas, posibilidades de aprendizaje y motivaciones
Authors: Goncalves Liliana Monica , Segovia Susana
Published: March 2019

This piece of research evaluates the possibility of constructing a life project in older adults based on self-perception about their learning possibilities, their relationship with the environment and the developed competences, based on their own criteria of reality. It is a mixed study, qualiquantitative, descriptive, transectional. Surveys and in-depth interviews were applied to adults over 60 years old from the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and Conurbano Bonaerense (Argentina). We start from the assumption that, in general, planning new life projects in older adults would seem somewhat unfeasible. However, from their self-perception, the feasibility of undertaking such new learnings and projects is analysed. They express desire for interaction with the environment and access to new knowledge. They consider generic competences such as reflection and understanding as strengthened; and take memorisation as limited. Their cognitive abilities, the link with the environment and the desire to socialise their interpretation with others allow us to infer that there are decoding abilities and an interest in updating their knowledge and bonding. There are appropriate conditions for the generation of life projects; nevertheless, these suppose the existence of a set of sociocultural relations and contextual interactions that collaborate in their development, which still require greater consolidation.

Published: March 2019

Protein glycation is one of the major causes of diabetic complications while antiglycation therapy is the most important intervention to manage diabetic complications. Â Currently, sulfur-containing compounds are under extensive studies due to their vast pharmacological applications particularly, against diabetic mellitus and oxidative stress induced pathological disorders.Present study is an effort to evaluate various classes of organosulfur compounds to explore promising inhibitors against protein glycation with enhanced antiglycation potential and low toxic effects. A library of organosulfur compounds belonging to different classes was investigated for their potential inhibition against protein glycation in vitro while MTT assay on mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells was used to assess the potential cytotoxicity of most promising antiglycation agents.On antiglycation assay, eight organosulfur compounds (1-8) exhibited a potent antiglycation activity with IC50 values (<16 ÂµM), as compared to standard antiglycation agent rutin (IC50 = 98.01Â±2.03 ÂµM). Similarly, compound (9) and compound (10) exhibited good antiglycation potential with IC50 values 591.6Â±1.53 and 401Â±1.20 ÂµM, respectively. In this assay compounds (12-18) exhibited moderate antiglycation activity (47-62% inhibition) at 1mM concentration.On mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells cytotoxicity assay, all the tested compounds were found to be largely non-toxic with IC50 values (72.5-100) ÂµM. In this assay, compound (10) exhibited slight toxic nature with IC50 value 5.00Â±1.89 as compared cycloheximide which is used as a standard in this assay with IC50 value 0.3 Â± 0.089 Î¼M.Key Words: Organosulfur compounds, diabetic complications, antiglycation agents, cytotoxicity assay

Complexo Penal Estadual Agrícola Mário Negócio: o agente penitenciário e a reintegração social do interno sob os parâmetros da crise no sistema prisional brasileiro.
Authors: De Oliveira Alrivaneide Lourenço , Araújo Richard Medeiros de
Published: March 2019

O objetivo do artigo foi explorar as dificuldades vivenciadas pelo agente penitenciário no exercício da função no Complexo Penitenciário Agrícola Mário Negócio. Considerar as particularidades que mais afetam ou interferem no labor prisional, as mesmas que possivelmente impedem que o sistema penitenciário apresente características positivas na sua função social. Metodologicamente foram feitasleituras bilbiográficas, pesquisa exploratória e de campo onde foram coletados dados através de entrevistas semiestruturadas com os profissionais da área em evidência. Os principais resultados apontados partem, sobretudo, pela falta de recursos que implicam na infraestrutura de forma geral, mormente, o efetivo funcional que está aquém da demanda para o desempenho das atividades penitenciárias. Dificuldades que atravancam um trabalho árduo pela sua natureza. Conclui-se que há a omissão e o descompromisso por parte do governo e demais autoridades públicas como principal causa destas dificuldades que desembocam na desvalorização do agente penitenciário e no imperativo da reincidência criminal, essa conduta afeta toda a conjunção prisional deste país. Sendo, portanto, esta unidade penal mais um caso singular, dos muitos outros que operam neste cenário de precariedade que compromete o trabalho de seus servidores, bem como, sua missão de reintegrar a pessoa presa ao convívio social.
Questionando o Complexo de Atlas: O Papel do Professor no Processo de Aprendizagem do Aluno Adulto em Língua Estrangeira
Authors: Maciel Szezecinski Antonio Filipe , Felicetti Vera Lucia
Published: March 2019

O presente artigo analisa qual o papel desempenhado pelo professor de Língua Inglesa junto ao contexto de aquisição e aprendizagem do aluno adulto, através de uma revisão bibliográfica de teóricos que buscaram compreender tais aspectos de aprendizagem do aluno adulto. Como resultado, pôde-se perceber que, movidos por incertezas e inseguranças de seus alunos adultos, muitos professores tendem a assumir total responsabilidade durante o processo de ensino e aprendizagem, ou seja, o professor é o centro deste processo e tudo a ele está voltado. Tal comportamento revela-se prejudicial ao desenvolvimento da autonomia do aluno quando o mesmo necessitará usá-la “longe dos olhos do professor.” Concluiu-se dessa maneira que o aluno adulto, assim como qualquer outro aluno em processo de aprendizagem, necessita ser ativo em seu aprendizado, permitindo-se descobrir maneiras de como superar os obstáculos inerentes à aprendizagem de uma língua estrangeira.
A presunção de inocência no contexto da Declaração Universal de Direitos Humanos e a sua relativização pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal
Authors: Johner Marcos Afonso
Published: March 2019

Este escrito tem como objetivo verificar se a execução provisória da pena é compatível com a Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos e com a Constituição Federal. O estudo do tema apresentado é importante na medida em que transcende o debate acadêmico, uma vez que repercute diretamente na esfera do jus libertatis do acusado no processo penal. Utilizou-se do método dedutivo, mediante pesquisa documental indireta. Ao final, constatou-se que o novel entendimento do Supremo Tribunal Federal, ao permitir a execução provisória da pena, conflita com a presunção de inocência e, por via de consequência, com a Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos e a Constituição Federal, por antecipar o juízo da culpa antes do trânsito em julgado da sentença penal condenatória.

Authors: Vascon Luis Fernando Castro , De Souza Luís Antônio Francisco
Published: March 2019

A ascensão da internet, sobretudo das redes sociais virtuais, representa um marco da história moderna, modificando e reestruturando padrões de sociabilidade. Dentro das supracitadas redes sociais, observa-se uma preocupação por parte dos pesquisadores das humanidades sobre a propagação de notícias falsas, por conta da rápida disseminação em massa possibilitada pela internet. Neste contexto, o presente artigo explora esta discussão a partir da pesquisa “Construção social da realidade a partir das páginas ‘Apoio policial’ e ‘Eu nasci pra ser polícia’ no Facebook”, levantando a hipótese de existência de uma associação entre notícias falsas propagadas em páginas ligadas à atuação das polícias no Brasil com os altos índices de violência policial registrados em dados oficiais. Para tal formulação, o artigo aborda primeiramente a metodologia empregada na obtenção de informações, além da contextualização sobre a violência policial no Brasil, e posteriormente apresenta os resultados coletados na pesquisa, permitindo deste modo uma leitura da relação entre os fenômenos estudados.

Maxwell's Equations, Stokes' Theorem, and the Conservation of Charge
Authors: Gratus Jonathan , Kinsler Paul , McCall Martin W.
Published: March 2019

A careful examination of the fundamentals of electromagnetic theory shows that due to the underlying mathematical assumptions required for Stokes' Theorem, global charge conservation cannot be guaranteed in topologically non-trivial spacetimes. However, in order to break the charge conservation mechanism we must also allow the electromagnetic excitation fields D, H to possess a gauge freedom, just as the electromagnetic scalar and vector potentials $\varphi$ and A do. This has implications for the treatment of electromagnetism in spacetimes where black holes both form and then evaporate, as well as extending the possibilities for treating vacuum polarisation. Using this gauge freedom of D, H we also propose an alternative to the accepted notion that a charge passing through a wormhole necessarily leads to an additional (effective) charge on the wormhole's mouth.

This paper investigates an alternative use of sterile aggregate materials which may arise from various construction applications in conjunction with other low-cost mineral raw materials to remediate the acid mine drainage phenomenon. This study is based on the combination of unprocessed mineral raw materials as well as on the basic concept of the cyclic economy where the conversion of a waste into a raw material for another application can be achieved. In this way, the value of mineral raw materials can be prolonged for as long as possible, waste generation and exploitation of natural resources are minimized and resources are kept as far as possible within the existing economy. In this study, an electrically continuous flow driven forced device proposed and demonstrated for the remediation of waste water in lab-scale by using certain mixes of mineral raw materials (serpentinite, andesite, magnesite, peat and biochar). Our results focus on the impact of the studied mineral raw materials and especially on their synergy on the water purification potential under continuous water flow operation. Using the proposed 7-day experimental electrically continuous flow driven forced device with the certain mixes of mineral raw materials, the increase of pH values from 3.00 to 6.82 as well as significant removal of Fe, Cu and Zn was achieved.

Published: March 2019

This research article reports the results of a qualitative case study that correlates academic literature with five Industry 4.0 cyber trends, seven cyber risk frameworks and two cyber risk models. While there is a strong interest in industry and academia to standardise existing cyber risk frameworks, models and methodologies, an attempt to combine these approaches has not been done until present. We apply the grounded theory approach to derive with integration criteria for the reviewed frameworks, models and methodologies. Then, we propose a new architecture for the integration of the reviewed frameworks, models and methodologies. We therefore advance the efforts of integrating standards and governance into Industry 4.0 and offer a better understanding of a holistic economic impact assessment model for IoT cyber risk.

Carcinogenesis is the process whereby a normal cell is transformed into a neoplastic cell.  This action involves several steps starting with initiation and followed by promotion and progression.  Driving these stages are oxidative stress and inflammation, which in turn encompasses a myriad of aberrant gene expressions, both within the transforming cell population and the cells within the surrounding lesion.  Chemoprevention of cancer with bioreactive foods or their extracted/purified components occurs via normalizing these inappropriate gene activities.  Various foods/agents have been shown to affect different gene expressions.  In this review we discuss whereby the chemoprevention activities of the red beetroot itself may disrupt carcinogenesis and the activities of the water soluble betalains extracted from the plant.

To effectively reduce the day-to-day fluctuations and differences in subjects’ brain electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and improve the accuracy and stability of EEG emotion classification, a new EEG feature extraction method based on common spatial pattern (CSP) and wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) is proposed. For the five-day emotion related EEG data of 12 subjects, the CSP algorithm is firstly used to project the raw EEG data into an optimal subspace to extract the discriminative features by maximizing the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergences between the two categories of EEG data. Then the WPD algorithm is used to decompose the EEG signals into the related features in time-frequency domain. Finally, four state-of-the-art classifiers including Bagging tree, SVM, linear discriminant analysis and Bayesian linear discriminant analysis are used to make binary emotion classification. The experimental results show that with CSP spatial filtering, the emotion classification on the WPD features extracted with bior3.3 wavelet base gets the best accuracy of 0.862, which is 29.3% higher than that of the power spectral density (PSD) feature without CSP preprocessing, is 23% higher than that of the PSD feature with CSP preprocessing, is 1.9% higher than that of the WPD feature extracted with bior3.3 wavelet base without CSP preprocessing, and is 3.2% higher than that of the WPD feature extracted with the rbio6.8 wavelet base without CSP preprocessing. Our proposed method can effectively reduce the variance and non-stationary of the cross-day EEG signals, extract the emotion related features and improve the accuracy and stability of the cross-day EEG emotion classification. It is valuable for the development of robust emotional brain-computer interface applications.

Published: March 2019

Logistics routing problem is a typical NP hard problem, which is very difficult to solve accurately. On the basis of establishing logistics path optimization model, an immune clone algorithm is proposed. To improve the accuracy of search algorithms, the clonal selection and high frequency variations in the immune algorithm method are introduced. Then the antibody encoding virtual distribution point algorithm is designed to improve search efficiency. The benchmark problem of logistics delivery path optimization is simulated and analyzed. Experimental results show that the proposed immune cloning algorithm expands the range of population search and it have obvious advantages in solving large-scale complex physical distribution optimization problems. Also, the proposed algorithm can solve the optimal distribution of logistics effectively.
Yenilik Temelli Büyüme ve Gelir Eşitsizliği Üzerine Etkileri: Kuramsal Bir Yaklaşım
Authors: BARIŞ Serap , UZAY Nisfet
Published: March 2019

Yaklaşık yarım asırdır dünya genelinde ve özellikle gelişmiş ülkelerde
gelir eşitsizliğinde dikkate değer bir artış yaşanmaktadır. Ancak bu artışın
nedenleri konusunda henüz bir görüş birliğine varılamamıştır. Bu konuda son
dönemlerde üzerinde durulan nedenlerden biri “yenilikler”dir. Birçok ülke
iktisadi büyümeyi hızlandırmak için yeniliklere ve teknolojik sürece önem
vermiştir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, yenilik ve gelir eşitsizliği ilişkisini
teorik ve ampirik yaklaşımlar çerçevesinde incelemektir. Çalışmanın sonucuna
göre, yenilik ve gelir eşitsizliği ilişkileri farklı kanallardan ortaya
çıkmaktadır. Bu iki değişken arasında iki yönlü ilişki olup, bu ilişkinin
niteliği pozitif olabildiği gibi negatif de olabilmektedir. Yenilik süreci
rekabet üstünlüğü sağlamak, verimliliği ve iktisadi büyümeyi artırmak açısından
gerekli olmakla birlikte, bu sürecin gelir eşitsizliği ile olan ilişkisi
sosyo-ekonomik şartlara ve kurumsal yapıya bağlıdır.

Published: March 2019

This study analyzes risks in smallholder cattle production. A household survey was carried out among 109 farmers in a village of Sekaran, one of cattle production center in Bojonegoro, East Java. The monthly average income of farmer household was Rp. 293,877 per capita and it has 2-3 cattles on average. A risk matrix was applied to plot 17 risks related to cattle and farmer households into four quadrants based on the occurrence probability and severity level. Drought, feed scarcity, cattle diseases, and farmer sickness had “high probability and severity level”, and therefore were prioritized to be addressed. The logit regression model of feed scarcity, cattle diseases showed that economies of scale significantly reduced risk of feed scarcity but it could increase risk of cattle diseases. Risk of cattle diseases could be reduced significantly by applying more intensive hygiene and treatment. A livestock pattern transformation from individually separated cages under individual farmers into an integrated or colony farm under farmer group is suggested as a risk management strategy in order to achieve economies of scale and effectively control livestock hygiene and treatment.
