Posibilidades de las prácticas creativas para trabajar el enfoque intercultural en el Grado de Trabajo Social
Authors: López Fuentes Ana Virginia , Bracons Hélia
Published: August 2023

Trabajar con el enfoque intercultural en los centros educativos es una forma de promover la diversidad como normalidad y así poder erradicar los hechos excluyentes de la sociedad (Martínez-Salanova, 2006; Aguado, 2011). El papel de este enfoque dentro del aula, a cualquier edad, es fundamental para educar sin etiquetas y preparar al alumnado para la realidad actual. Partiendo de esta idea, esta investigación propone una experiencia educativa que aborda la interculturalidad y las prácticas creativas, realizada con estudiantes universitarios del Grado de Trabajo Social en la asignatura "Intervención, diversidad e interculturalidad". Esta experiencia educativa comienza con una explicación del significado de la Educación Inclusiva, el enfoque intercultural y las prácticas creativas. Una vez aclarados estos conceptos, se proponen como modelos algunos ejemplos de prácticas creativas observadas por las investigadoras en el campo y revisadas en la literatura. A continuación, se proponen algunas preguntas específicas para que los alumnos reflexionen y fomenten un debate sobre las prácticas creativas y la interculturalidad. Con esta práctica, pretendemos promover la reflexión sobre el significado y la relevancia del uso de prácticas creativas en contextos educativos y sociales y desarrollar valores inclusivos en los futuros trabajadores sociales a través de la creación de debates y textos en relación con las prácticas interculturales y creativas. El valor de la inclusión se promueve a través de la participación de todos los estudiantes, el diálogo y la reflexión acerca de las prácticas creativas que tienen por objeto promover el enfoque intercultural. Sin embargo, algunas de las prácticas presentadas se centran más en la performatividad que en el enfoque humanista.
¿Qué tipo de “inteligencia” es la Inteligencia Artificial?
Authors: Reyes Cárdenas Paniel
Published: August 2023

En este artículo realizo un estudio de algunos términos comparativos que buscan acotar el significado del término “inteligencia”. Procedo revisando la tradición que produjo el término “inteligencia” mismo, reconociendo que es un término que ha sido utilizado propiamente para la integración de los actos de un cierto tipo de agente, una mente que interpreta y se conoce a sí misma mientras conoce las cosas. La inteligencia también emerge como el conjunto de operaciones y funciones que tienen los seres inteligentes. Con tales aspectos de la inteligencia se construye una visión más integrada y apropiada del término y así se adquiere una perspectiva para evaluar el tipo de inteligencia que esté en lo artificial. Esta perspectiva es un punto de partida necesario para entender los problemas de las visiones reduccionistas puramente psicologistas o funcionales de la inteligencia, y desde allí se juzga hasta dónde podemos interpretar a la “inteligencia artificial” como inteligencia en sentido propio.
Del simbolismo a la alimentación: el nacimiento de una nueva identidad bajo las virtudes teologales, la Virgen de Guadalupe, la trigarancia y los chiles en nogada
Authors: Sánchez Sánchez David
Published: August 2023

En México y hacia el mundo, Puebla y los chiles en nogada son una dualidad en sí misma pensada como maravillosa unidad, una unidad mestiza que gestó un correlato simbólico, una casa común y un alimento sagrado, con múltiples lecturas reiteradas cada año, no siempre acertadas, pero con una misma realidad original, la de tener el reconocimiento mundial de pertenecer a una de las jerarquías culinarias más excelsas de la faz de la tierra, que desde su Historia, desde los textos sagrados, las fértiles tierras, los sublimes manjares, las rutas comerciales, las herencias culturales, las sabias manos de años de entrega, desde el pensamiento simbólico y desde las cocinas tradicionales y regionales… crearon un caldo de cultivo donde los chiles en nogada supieron interactuar, identificarse y expresarse ante las virtudes teologales y hacia el Ejército Trigarante de una nueva y preciada realidad independiente llamada Imperio Mexicano.

Turnitin no es un robot de cocina y Snapchat no es una herramienta de ocio: nuevos retos en la docencia universitaria
Authors: Selma Penalva Alejandra
Published: August 2023

En los modernos planes de estudios, las asignaturas de TFG y TFM forman una parte esencial e insustituible del plan de estudios, presentándose siempre como asignaturas obligatorias y no optativas de los títulos universitarios surgidos a raíz de la puesta en marcha del Plan Bolonia. A lo largo de los más de diez años transcurridos desde la introducción de estas nuevas asignaturas en el modelo universitario español, se han estado planteando nuevos retos que es preciso abordar. Y es que, al mismo tiempo que surge una nueva responsabilidad para el alumnado, como es la de elaborar su trabajo final de investigación, surgen también múltiples estrategias de fraude antes desconocidas a través de las que se intenta minimizar el esfuerzo invertido.

Este es el motivo que hace que los docentes españoles, además de supervisar la calidad del trabajo, se vean éticamente obligados a comprobar también la autoría de los textos presentados. En el presente trabajo se analiza esta situación y se plantean propuestas y alternativas que podrían atenuar sus efectos perversos, mejorando el nivel de formación de nuestros estudiantes sin provocar una sobrecarga de trabajo de nuestros docentes.

Authors: Wicaksono Satrio Hari , Irawanto Budi , Hujatnika Agung
Published: August 2023

This research aims to read the creative process carried out by bio-art artists who use fungi as a medium of character, namely Phillip Ross and Syaiful ‘Tepu’ Garibaldi and explore the potential values in their nature. New media art became an essential umbrella for non-conventional art genres related to other disciplines, such as ecology- based art, kinetic art, video art, bio-art, etc. An interdisciplinary approach that is   no longer related to a single system but a synergy between fields of science to solve increasingly complex social and environmental problems. As a new genre, bio-art synergy art and science involving organic creation components. The use of animals, viruses, fungi, and plants is the differentiator that marks the formation of bio-art works. Research methods will be conducted with methodological approaches to art history, anthropology, and semiotics. The unusual process of fungi formation used as a medium of art and ecological issues became a powerful narrative that both artists generally raised. The synergy between art, science, and technology in the creation process is a new reference in the method of art creation, especially bio-art so that  the process of fungi formation that is not commonly used as a medium of art and ecological issues related to it as a powerful narrative that the two artists generally raise becomes the main subject of study. Jamur sebagai Media Seni: Kajian Media Seni Philip Ross dan Syaiful Aulia Garibaldi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membaca proses kreatif yang dilakukan oleh seniman bio-art yang memanfaatkan fungi sebagai media kekaryaannya, yaitu Phillip Ross dan Syaiful ‘Tepu’ Garibaldi serta menggali potensi nilai-nilai yang ada dalam kekaryaannya.Seni media baru menjadi payung penting untuk genre seni non- konvensional yang terkait dengan disiplin ilmu lain, seperti seni berbasis ekologi, seni kinetik, seni video, bio-art, dll. Pendekatan interdisipliner yang tidak lagi terkait dengan pendekatan tunggal tetapi sinergi antara bidang sains untuk memecahkan masalah sosial dan lingkungan yang semakin kompleks. Sebagai genre baru, bio-art adalah sinergi antara seni dan sains yang melibatkan komponen penciptaan organik. Penggunaan hewan, virus, jamur, dan tumbuhan adalah pembeda yang menandai pembentukan karya bio-seni. Metode penelitian akan dilakukan dengan pendekatan metodologi sejarah seni, antropologi, dan semiotika. Proses pembentukan fungi yang tak lazim digunakan sebagai media seni dan isu-isu ekologi yang berkaitan dengannya, menjadi narasi besar yang secara umum diangkat oleh kedua seniman tersebut.

Published: August 2023

Leaf morphological characters and nutrient content in leaf tissue can vary depending on plant genotype. The nutrient solution culture can produce leaves with good nutritional content. Therefore, this research aimed to evaluate and validate cassava putative mutants' morphological traits and Zn content using a nutrient solution culture system. This research was carried out from January to May 2022 at the greenhouse of Cikabayan Experimental Garden, IPB University, Bogor. This study used two cassava cultivars and ten mutant genotypes from the cassava research team of IPB University, resulting from mutation breeding by gamma irradiation. The plant characters observed in this study included the number of leaves, length and width of the leaflet, leaf colour, plant height, fresh and dry weight leaf, and analysis of Zn content. The data were analyzed using ANOVA at a significant level of α = 5%, followed by Tukey's further test. The results showed that the G2D1-422 genotype had a higher Zn content than the wild type (Ratim/G2) and the other genotypes. The high Zn genotypes (G2D1-422) and low Zn genotypes (Ratim (G2) had not significantly different in fresh and dry leaf weight. Meanwhile, the plant genotype did not affect other growth characteristics such as plant height, the number of leaves, and the length and width of the leaflets, and overall, the characters were similar between the observed genotypes.

Authors: Bolly Hendrikus Masang Ban , Adam Achmad , Puspitaningrum Nina , Faried Ahmad , Arifin Muhammad Zafrullah
Published: August 2023

Tujuan: Untuk menilai nekrosis tumor, penyengatan zat kontras, dan edema peritumoral pada MRI pre-operasi sebagai prediktor rerata waktu kesintasan pasien glioma derajat rendah dan tinggi. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain potong lintang retrospektif yang melibatkan 26 pasien glioma derajat rendah (n=11) dan derajat tinggi (n=15) berdasarkan hasil histopatologi pasca operasi. Gambaran radiologi MRI pre-operatif dinilai menggunakan parameter nekrosis, penyengatan zat kontras dan edema peritumoral. Selain itu juga dihitung waktu kesintasan pasien pasca operasi untuk kemudian dianalisis secara statistik angka rerata kesintasan menggunakan analisis Kaplan-Meier. Hasil: Gambaran nekrosis tumor pada MRI pre-operatif memiliki pengaruh yang secara statistik bermakna terhadap rerata waktu kesintasan pasien glioma (p=0,021). Selain itu Karnofsky performance score (KPS) pasca operasi (p=0,050) dan lokasi tumor (p=0,036) juga berpengaruh pada rerata waktu kesintasan pasien glioma. Pasien glioma dalam penelitian ini memiliki rerata waktu kesintasan yang lebih pendek jika memiliki gambran nekrosis derajat II pada MRI pre operatif (14 bulan); rerata waktu kesintasan lebih panjang jika lokasi tumor di lobus oksipital (38 bulan) dan KPS pasca operasi ?70 (28,67 bulan). Kesimpulan: Pemeriksaan radiologis pre-operatif dapat berkontribusi dalam penentuan prognosis pasien glioma. Meski demikian derajat histopatologis dan pemeriksaan molekuler tetap berperan penting dalam penentuan pilihan terapi lanjutan dan prognostik pasien glioma.

Este trabalho refere-se à necessidade de relacionar teorias de pensamento político, pautadas nos modelos cêntricos e periféricos, para compreender características exploratórias de recursos energéticos não renováveis no Brasil. O texto propõe ainda, uma leitura da relação homem-natureza, a Pachamama pelo ideal do Buen Vivir, no Equador, ao que se refere a exploração de suas reservas de combustível fóssil. Como problema, surgem os questionamentos: O Brasil, considerado um país periférico, mas que em tese, passa a seguir modelos e standards de proteção ambiental de países cêntricos, ao ratificar inúmeros tratados internacionais, possui um pensamento político próprio de preservação ambiental? A relevância do tema, pautado no estudo apurado dos “Novos Direitos” e os novos valores fundamentais humanos, encontra-se na necessidade de construção teórica e crítica na exploração de recursos naturais não renováveis e de grande interesse na esfera internacional - in casu, o petróleo -, em razão da volatilidade e fragilidade dos bens jurídicos protegidos na ordem constitucional. Sob o ponto de vista social, político e econômico, compreende-se que o presente texto encontra justificativa na medida em que tece críticas à questão exploratória de recursos naturais não renováveis e os interesses do capital, e a busca a todo custo ao acesso privilegiado de recursos energéticos fósseis em prejuízo ao equilíbrio ecológico e da sadia qualidade de vida. Como método se utilizou os métodos jurídicos-exploratório e jurídico-comparativo, a partir de uma abordagem dedutivo-analítica. Diante da utilização de recursos energéticos fósseis (petróleo, gás natural e carvão mineral) como fonte primária de energia, observa-se que não parece ser prioridade, num primeiro momento, a preocupação do Brasil em garantir a preservação do seu ambiente.

The study presents the results of an experimental study devoted to the choice of the most optimal mode of pulsed contact laser exposure of semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 445 nm in phonosurgery, which implies maximum preservation of anatomically and functionally significant structures of the larynx combined with a radical approach to the pathological process. From the standpoint of the mucoundular theory of voice formation, wave-like oscillations of the vocal folds are possible due to the mobility of the cover layer of the vocal fold (epithelium, superficial layer of the lamina propria) relative to its body (deep layer of the lamina propria, vocal muscle). Thus, any injury at the level of the integumentary layer is associated with the risk of excessive scarring and loss of the ability to wave-like sliding. Pig vocal folds, according to a number of authors, have a structure similar to human ones in terms of both histological structure and acoustic parameters, which justifies the rationality of their use as an experimental model. In a series of experiments using a 445 nm laser, contact pulsed impacts on a biological model were carried out with pulse durations of 10, 20, 50, and 100 ms, followed by evaluation of the following parameters based on the data of histological sections: the depth and width of the ablation crater, the width of the zone of lateral thermal damage. Thus, the most optimal for phonosurgical interventions modes of pulsed laser exposures with a wavelength of 445 nm are described.

The proposed approach to microcirculation assessment is non-invasive, informative, and can be implemented during photoactivation, and thus is perspective both for research tasks and clinical practice. The functional principles of the vasculature response to photodynamic exposure, identified using this technique, also foster the efficiency and safety of photodynamic therapy. The developed setup allows simultaneous photodynamic exposure and studying the microcirculation parameters by videocapillaroscopy and photoplethysmography techniques. Photodynamic action is carried out by 662 nm laser radiation with a power density of 15 mW/cm2  in continuous and pulsed modes. The imaging system of the setup consists of a large working distance microscope, an optical filter, and a monochrome camera. The illumination system is based on LED with a central wavelength of 532 nm. The acquired images were processed in order to obtain morphometric and hemodynamic microcirculation data in the inspected skin area. To compare the proposed approach with existing methods, we measured blood flow parameters by a laser Doppler flowmeter. We tested the developed setup on rats injected with a photosensitizer and obtained active vessel maps, photoplethysmograms, and skin vessel density values before, during, and after photoactivation in both generation modes. The proposed approach allows to reveal differences in the microcirculation response to photodynamic effects of low power densities in different modes, in particular, the discrepancy between the time from the start of exposure to the cessation of blood flow and the start of the recovery period.
Políticas de inversión social en el Estado Autonómico. Capacitación y defamiliarización en la configuración de variaciones entre Comunidades Autónomas
Authors: Bachiller Cabria Juan Vicente
Published: August 2023

Esta investigación compara el grado penetración de la inversión social a través del Estado Autonómico. Dado que se observa una desigual implantación entre países, cabe preguntarse si también en el Estado de Bienestar español, con gran influencia de la descentralización, existen variaciones significativas a nivel autonómico. Así, los objetivos son comprender cómo varían las políticas de inversión social entre las Comunidades Autónomas, además de establecer una tipología para caracterizarlas. Para ello fue construido un índice compuesto, además de la aplicación de técnicas de análisis de conglomerados y análisis de componentes principales. Los datos analizados se corresponden a registros administrativos del sistema educativo y de formación profesional, del sistema de empleo y del sistema de atención y ayuda a la dependencia. Los resultados muestran cuatro tipologías diferentes de Comunidades Autónomas, en función del desempeño de las políticas de formación y capacitación, y, en menor medida, de las políticas de defamiliarización. Las principales diferencias se dan en las políticas en las que los factores socioeconómicos, más allá de los institucionales, tienen mayor relevancia.
Los indígenas en la prensa regional del extremo sur del Perú, Tarapacá (1860-1879)

Resumen
Este artículo se origina en las referencias sobre el indígena en la prensa local de la región de Tarapacá, extremo sur peruano, entre 1860 y 1879. En él se puede identificar cómo se vinculan los actores sociales del momento, así como conocer la representación del indígena dentro del imaginario regional cuando se perfilaba la ciudadanía nacional en el Perú de fines del siglo XIX. Se revisaron los periódicos El Comercio de Iquique (de 1874 a 1879); El Mercurio de Tarapacá (de 1867 a 1869) y El Mercurio de Iquique (de 1870 a 1879), publicaciones de inspiración liberal, críticas a los gobiernos establecidos entre 1860 y 1879. Se abordaron tres unidades de análisis: editorial, artículos de opinión y “Revista Local” (sección de noticias locales). Se identificaron tres formas de referencia al indígena: una que refiere al ciudadano peruano, otra al vecino boliviano y otra al indígena de otras latitudes. Se halló que entre 1860 y 1879 existía preocupación, interés y necesidad de configurar una identidad local basada en la industriosidad de la población local, especialmente aquella que, definida desde sus prácticas y hábitos culturales, era reconocida como indígena. También, que se plantea la necesidad de superación de la condición de indígena para lograr el desarrollo.
