ABSTRACT

 The teaching and learning process cannot be separated from various factors that can influence and support its sustainability. One of the supports is the existence of a well-structured and well-constructed learning motivation for students, so that learning objectives can be achieved easily and pleasantly. At the beginning of 2020 the world of education was faced with the presence of the Corona virus or commonly called COVID-19, so that learning innovation was needed, all educational units developed various forms of creative learning through online. This method was developed specifically to manage online learning, and distribute materials to students, with this system the lecturer is separated from the students. Changes in learning methods from face-to-face to online (online), affect student motivation and learning achievement. Online learning is a problem for lecturers and students, one of the problems with online learning is that students' independence in learning at home cannot be fully implemented so that student learning motivation tends to decrease. With online learning, there are students who have signal problems, this causes the learning material to be incomplete. well received and learning achievement has a downward trend.

Improved Reliability of FWD Test Results and Correlations with Resilient Modulus
Authors: Gupta Kanika , Park Sung Soo , Bobet Antonio , Nantung Tommy
Published: July 2022

Resilient modulus (MR) is a key factor in the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) which was adopted by INDOT in January 2009. The resilient modulus can be determined in new pavement projects from subgrade soil samples collected at the site. However, for a pavement rehabilitation project, it becomes difficult to obtain soil information, and coring for samples may not be feasible because of traffic. The literature is rich with correlations between the MR of the subgrade obtained in the laboratory with that estimated from FWD tests in the field. However, the review conducted shows very contradictory and inconsistent findings, thus existing correlations seem to apply only to the cases investigated, i.e., they are ad hoc correlations and cannot be generalized. To improve the interpretation of the FWD data and enhance the reliability of the results in Indiana, FWD and GPR tests were performed at five different road construction projects at the same locations where soil samples were collected and tested in the laboratory for resilient modulus. The selected sites included roads with rigid pavement and treated subgrade and flexible pavement with untreated subgrade. The study showed that (1) FWD backcalculation is greatly affected by pavement thickness; (2) GPR can provide actual thicknesses and can identify discrepancies between as-built and design pavement thickness; (3) for flexible pavements, a one-to-one correlation exists between FWD modulus and laboratory resilient modulus values for untreated subgrade soils; (4) MODTAG or ELMOD codes can both be used to estimate the resilient modulus of the subgrade in flexible pavements; (5) for rigid pavements, results of FWD backcalculation analysis using ELMOD or MODTAG greatly overestimate the resilient modulus of the soil, with backcalculated moduli 1.3 to 6 times higher than laboratory results; (6) ELMOD is recommended for routine analysis of FWD data, while MODTAG is recommended for research or to evaluate the quality of the data, when needed.

Motivado por estas circunstâncias, este artigo propõe o estudo e aplicação de sete algoritmos de aprendizado de máquina com a utilização de seleção de atributos na classificação do tráfego de rede por meio do fluxo de rede, primando a automatização na identificação de fluxo anômalo, contribuindo para a obtenção de métrica no auxílio à tomada de decisão por administradores de redes.
Kunst – Kopie – Technik
Authors: Maier Daniela C.
Published: July 2022

In the arts and crafts museums of the 19th century, galvanoplastic reproductions played a major role alongside other duplicating media. On the basis of this new electrochemical process, historical gold and silver objects could be copied very accurately and the collections of European museums completed. These collections were in competition with the art reform movement and the world exhibitions, which led to competition in the acquisition of reproductions. These were both technical innovation and a source of artistic inspiration, and served to establish national identity.

Daniela C. Maier illuminates the multifaceted histories of meaning and valuation of galvanoplastic reproductions, making an important contribution to material culture against the backdrop of digitization and globalization.

Authors: Frebgen Jürgen Wasim
Published: July 2022

Till 1972, Nager was one of the last sacral kingdoms of the world. Its inhabitants proudly call their native area ‘the land of gold and apricots’. The present ethno-historic study seeks to reconstruct the past with special emphasis on oral traditions about processes of settlement. It also examines facets of local culture, such as agrarian feasts, aspects of indigenous pre-modern religion, Twelver-Shi?a Islam, lifecycle rites and local cuisine.

Grounded in long-term fieldwork, Jürgen Wasim Frembgen, a renowned anthropologist, Islamic scholar and writer, investigates the myths, traditions and folklife of the Nagerkuts living at the foot of the ‘fairy mountain’ Rakaposhi in the Karakoram (Northern Pakistan). According to the indigenous world-view, fairies are thought to reside on this majestic mountain.
Therapeutic effect of two fluoride varnishes on remineralisation of white spot lesions evaluated by laser fluorescence
Authors: Knežević Ranka , Vojinović Jovan
Published: July 2022

Background / Aim: The presence of white spot lesion (WSL) is considered the first stage of dental caries. The early detection and diagnosis of WSL is of crucial importance, since caries can be prevented at this stage, reversed and/or controlled by elimination of etiological factors and by use of fluorides. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy between the two fluoride varnishes on WSL remineralisation evaluated by laser fluorescence. Methods: A total of 30 children and 60 WSL cases (2 per each child) were included in this study. The selected WSL were randomly divided into two groups in each child: G1 applying Fluor Protector S®, Vivadent, Lichenstein (n = 30) and G2 applying MI varnish®, GC, Tokyo, Japan (n = 30). The fluoride varnishes were submitted to three applications: at baseline, four weeks and eight weeks following the baseline, according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Mineral density of the enamel was measured using laser fluorescence (DIAGNOdent® 2095, KaVo, Biberach, Germany) for each WSL. Laser fluorescence (LF) measurements were performed at baseline and at fourth, eighth and twelfth week after starting the treatment and LF scores were calculated. Results: By comparing LF scores at each measurement after treatment initiation, it was found that the scores were significantly lower in all groups when compared to baseline. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that both fluoride varnishes used were capable of remineralising WSL as evaluated by LF measurements. No difference was noted in the remineralising efficacy of the varnishes despite their different compositions. The main limitations of this study are small sample size and short follow up period. Therefore, further studies with large sample size and a longer follow up are, however, necessary.

Published: July 2022

Background / Aim: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that most often affects apocrine gland-bearing areas of the skin. The treatment depends on the severity of the clinical presentation. The paper objective was to present new modalities in management and treatment of HS. Methods: The subjects in this research included the patients suffering from the severe form of HS, who were treated in the University Clinical Centre of the Republic of Srpska for the past three years. The effect of treatment of HS were monitored. In four patients, biologic therapy with adalimumab or adalimumab biosimilars was administered, while four patients received radiotherapy and 17 of them, were treated surgically. Depending on the type of treatment, the effects of therapy were monitored after 6-12 weeks by using clinical examination and by assessing the disease stage according to the Hurley staging. Due to a small number of subjects, especially in patients treated with biologic and radiotherapy, it was not possible to perform any statistical analysis and the results were presented by description, in tables and photographs. Results: Biologic therapy: Adalimumab was administered subcutaneously 80 mg, twice a month. After 12 weeks, in 4 patients was observed a regression of changes by 60-70 % when compared to previous skin changes. Radiotherapy: the total radiation dose was 5 Gy, distributed in 5 or 10 fractions. After 12 weeks an improvement by 60-70 % was observed. Surgical treatment: after 6-8 weeks, the patients were fully recovered. Conclusions: Application of biologic and radiotherapy after 12 weeks had similar results, ie it brought to regression of changes by 60-70 %. The best results were achieved after surgical treatment of HS.
The use of adipose-derived stem cells in cell assisted lipotransfer as potential regenerative therapy in breast reconstruction
Authors: Sandiarini-Kamayana Jenisa
Published: July 2022

Breast reconstruction for breast cancer patients is performed as a standard of care to improve patients' quality of life, physical and psychosocial well-being. Stem cell therapy holds a promise in regenerative medicine, including in breast reconstruction. This review explores the potential use of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) in cell assisted lipotransfer (CAL) for reconstruction of the breast. The review of literature was done using electronic databases using appropriate keywords, including "adipose-derived stem cell", "stem cell therapy", "adipose-derived stem cell", "cell-assisted lipotransfer", "regenerative therapy", "breast cancer" and "breast reconstruction", with literatures limited to ten years post publication. Adipose-derived stem cells are multipotent cells with angiogenic and immunomodulatory potential. Several studies reveal ADSCs use in CAL results in long-term breast volume retention suggesting improved fat graft survival. Some conflicting outcomes are also discussed, potentially related to numbers of cells enriched and factors affecting the cells' microenvironment. The use of ADSCs in CAL may be beneficial for therapy of breast reconstruction in breast cancer patients after surgical management. Further investigation would be needed to improve the confidence of its clinical use.

A New Look At Wave Synthesis Using Multiple Wave Fronts
Authors: Rogers Douglas , Spinneken Johannes
Published: July 2022

Mixed regular seas were first generated using multiple signal generators and summing their outputs. Since computers have been available they have been used for a wave synthesis using multiple wave fronts. Through this mechanism, both irregular seas with 3D wave effects have been generated. Initially, we were restricted to summing less than 100 fronts, but with the increase in computing power, we are now only limited by the repeat time of the wave.

The ability of current multiple wave front synthesizer to produce both special effects and fully randomized effects has been widely utilized. The tool has proved to be well suited for fundamental wave analysis, wave power machine testing, coastal engineering and ship dynamics testing. This tool is currently being used to generate 3D waves in at least 12 major tank facilities and almost 50 wave flumes. The capability of this tool has enabled extreme wave testing to be carried out for survival testing and for waves to be generated with wavemakers in any configuration. Fortuitously, these synthesis techniques have also allowed a wave show to be developed for use in a theme park.

With the extra requirements to synthesize waves in the wave basins at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD), this proved an opportunity to review our wave synthesis capability in the light both of recent developments and user requirements. The development of an integrated tool with graphical display has allowed the exploration of a different techniques when generating wave effects in a wide variety of environments.

This flexibility has been further increased with the addition of the Dalrymple method and the ability to support a varying bottom topology. The power of modern graphics has not only allowed the wave to be displayed at a point as a plot against time, frequency and angular distribution but also as a full animation of the wave in the tank able to illustrate the impact of these effects.
LIDAR As A Laboratory Based Wave Measurement Tool
Authors: Drazen David
Published: July 2022

Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) is a nonintrusive measurement technique commonly used in applications such as topographic mapping and architectural surveys. It relies on the time-of-flight of a laser pulse to measure the distance to a reflective surface. Work by Hwang et al. (2000) and Reineman et al. (2009) has identified the utility of using near-infrared scanning LIDAR systems to map sea surface elevation from airborne platforms. Terill and Fu (2008) have demonstrated the use of LIDAR from sea-based platforms such as FSF-1 Sea Fighter and R/V Athena. Work at NSWCCD has shown the LIDAR to be an effective tool in large-scale towing tank experiments as a non-intrusive spatial measurement of the free surface.

This paper will present an overview of the operation of a LIDAR based measurement system in a laboratory setting using data from a series of experiments conducted at NSWCCD on Model 5673. Measurements from a range of Fn numbers based on the ship length and speed were made. Once the flow field around the transom sterned model was stationary, the LIDAR was traversed across the area of interest. This results in a 3-D map of the transom wake with an approximate nominal spatial resolution of 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in either direction. Recommendations for future work and additional applications will also be discussed.
Naval Surface Warfare Center’s Wavemaker Modernization Program

Published: July 2022

The driving technical requirements for new and modern replacements of the wave making systems at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) are discussed. Added capabilities of these new systems are presented with respect to both current and future United States Navy and Marine Corps requirements in terms of seakeeping, dynamic stability, wave-induced loads, and ride quality. The case is made that it is now time for the United States Navy to upgrade its testing capabilities in order to meet the more demanding operational requirements foreseen for future ships.

Added capability includes both Operational and Technical. It is necessary to maintain the current costs of maintenance and operation while improving the availability and reducing the time required to create new test wave profiles. By going from the current pneumatic to a segmented type flap wavemaker, it has been demonstrated that these operational goals will be met.

Added wave modeling capability is driven by more limited Naval resources projected to be available in the future - requiring both man and machine to do more for longer periods of time and in more severe sea conditions. The impact of this is already being seen in the model testing currently performed, with increased emphasis being placed on dynamic stability. In order to meet the future needs to evaluate seakeeping, including dynamic stability, wave-induced loads and ride quality new wave making capabilities are required. These capabilities include modeling of the directionality of the waves, having the ability to reproduce and encounter discrete wave events in a deterministic way, and improving upon the control and quality of the generated wave profiles.
Recent Testing, Training, and Research Conducted at Ohmsett - The National Oil Spill Response Research & Renewable Energy Test Facility
Authors: Guarino Alan , Schmidt Bill , Meyer Paul , Delgado Jane-Ellen
Published: July 2022

Ohmsett - The National Oil Spill Response Research & Renewable Energy Test Facility plays a critical role in developing the most effective response technologies, as well as training first responders with the most realistic training available, enabling a rapid and efficient response to an actual spill. The facility, which is operated by the U.S. Department of Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE; formerly the MMS), provides a crucial intermediate step between small-scale bench testing and open water testing of equipment by allowing testing of full scale equipment in a controlled environment. Information gathered at Ohmsett plays an essential role in the development of new technology and in the creation of more effective procedures for responding to future oil spills.

Recent programs for innovative spill recovery technologies and training include: Sunken Oil Detection, Calm Sea Dispersant Application and Washout, Remote Oil Spill Sensing, Oil Herders in Pack Ice, Dispersant Effectiveness with Low Doses and Repeated Application, Skimmer Nameplate Capacity Testing, Submersible Pump Test, Oil Herders to Improve Offshore Dispersant Operations, Validating Lab-Scale Dispersant Effectiveness, U.S. Coast Guard Oil Spill Response Training, U.S. Coast Guard SMART Protocol Training, EPA Response Training, Dispersant Training Course, and Fast Water Spill Response Training.

To further aid research and development projects, Ohmsett’s Wave Generator was recently upgraded to allow the wave generating flaps to continuously change frequency and amplitude. The wave flaps follow computer generated outputs to generate wave spectra such as Pierson-Moskowitz, JONSWAP, and FM slide, creating waves that more closely simulate ocean waves. Reflected waves are attenuated via a set of “beaches” at the end of the tank opposite the wave flaps. Recent testing of innovative marine hydrokinetic renewable energy technologies include: two marine current to energy conversion devices (hydraulic generators); a Point Source Wave Energy Conversion device (electrical generator); and a proof of concept device that will capture energy via an Oscillating Water Column (OWC).

Ohmsett’s value as a R&D and training platform is confirmed by the number of researchers and trainers who return to Ohmsett for continued testing and training. While much of the data collected is proprietary, this paper will summarize and discuss the methodology used during recent testing, training and research conducted at Ohmsett.

Published: July 2022

The U.S. Department of the Interior, Minerals Management Service (MMS) is now tasked to collaborate with research institutions and industry on testing ocean wave and current energy conversion systems. Accordingly, MMS recently expanded the mission of its Ohmsett Facility to include such testing and research, Ohmsett, The National Oil Spill Response Research & Renewable Energy Test Facility, has one of the largest outdoor saltwater tanks in North America and is designed to evaluate the performance of model- and full-scale equipment under realistic environmental conditions. The facility, operated by MAR Incorporated under contract to MMS, is located at the Naval Weapons Station Earle Waterfront facility in Leonardo, New Jersey (about one hour drive south of New York City).

At the heart of Ohmsett is a very large outdoor, above-ground concrete test tank that is 203 meters long, 20 meters wide 3.5 meters deep and holds 10 million liters of crystal clear salt water. The Ohmsett tank is equipped with three movable bridges providing speeds of up to 6.5 knots, programmable in 1/100th knot increments, to simulate ocean currents or vehicle speeds. The robust tow bridges are able to accommodate the torques and forces of the largest current turbines and wave energy converter (WEC) equipment. The Control Tower is fully computerized and data from various sensors and video cameras are collected for analysis.

The Ohmsett tank system allows testing of fullscale equipment. The tank's wave generator creates realistic sea environments, while state-of-the-art data collection and video systems record test results. The data collection system is capable of recording up to 32 channels. The facility has proven to be ideal for testing developmental equipment, subjecting research findings to validation, and evaluating acquisition options.

The new generator system, located at the south end of the tank, can produce waves at discrete frequencies with heights up to one meter, as well as FM Slides, and JONSWAP or Pierson-Moskowitz spectra with controlling parameters of driving wind velocity and scale ratio. Recognizing physical limits on wave-maker stroke, probabilities of clipping on axes of these two parameter values are displayed with their touch-pad selections. The theoretical stroke-to-wave height transfer gain of the wave flap is being compared with a number of measurement observations. Customers may specify their own wave characteristics if they are not adequately represented by these standard types. A new beach system is being developed at the north end of the tank that will allow long runs of variable wave incidence with minimal interference from reflections. The facility includes a well-equipped machine shop and assembly area, and extensive lifting and transport capabilities. As well as its renewables mission, “Oil Patch” business is invited. Potential users will find a skilled technical staff, relaxed hands-on atmosphere and a very attractive financial environment.
Test Results and Uncertainty Estimates for CEHIPAR Model 2716
Authors: Park Joel T. , Ratcliffe Toby J. , Minnick Lisa M. , Russell Lauren E.
Published: July 2022

The 24th International Towing Tank Conference (ITTC) has initiated an inter-laboratory test of a 5.720 m length model that is geometrically similar to David Taylor Model Basin (DTMB) model 5415, a pre-design version of the U. S. Navy surface ship combatant DDG-51. Resistance, sinkage, and trim measurements were completed during the last week of August 2009 on DTMB Carriage #1. Test results include an uncertainty analysis. Since the test program was initiated, the uncertainty analysis procedures were revised by the 25th ITTC for consistency with the ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (ISO GUM 1995). This paper describes the analysis by the ISO GUM. All measurement results are traceable to NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). These results are for a test conducted on a single day over a Froude number, Fr, range of 0.10 to 0.41 and 9 different velocities. Only resistance results are reported here. A total of 12 repeat runs were performed at Fr = 0.10, 0.28, and 0.41. The variation in results is quite large in comparison to the uncertainty estimate at a single run condition. The uncertainty from Type A method as computed from the standard deviation of the time series was the largest uncertainty component in resistance from the drag block gages. For example at Fr = 0.41, the residuary resistance coefficient was CR = 0.003721 ±0.000041 (±1.11 %) with about ±0.000031 (±0.83 %) from the block gage measurement. A 4th-order polynomial approximates the experimental data quite well with a correlation of coefficient of 0.999. The fitted value at Fr = 0.41 is CR = 0.00366 ±0.00012 (±3.3 %). The curve fitted value is considered to be the best estimate of the uncertainty when combined with the measured value. For the most part, the resistance coefficients are in agreement with previous results within the uncertainty of the estimates.

Authors: Salgueiro María Alejandra
Published: July 2022

This article, part of a doctoral thesis, explores the specificities of learning in relation to teaching that is achieved within the framework of a teaching career of consecutive modality or of curricular complementation. This modality targets university graduates who decide to work in teaching. We used a qualitative methodological design aimed at exploring the ways in which individuals in this situation perceive and experience the phenomenon, their points of view, interpretations and meanings. More specifically, we focused on the moment when these teachers initiate their teaching. According to the results of the thesis, the learning achieved is characterized as passage / s. Two types of passages were identified: those related to roles or institutional positions - from students to teachers - and those related to profession and work objects - from specialists in a disciplinary field to educators. Participants highlight teaching itself and the help of other colleagues as the main sources of learning. The results contribute to problematizing teacher training in its initial stage, especially around its didactic aspects. They also highlight the importance of teaching practice in the teacher training curriculum, on the one hand, the centrality of practices in teacher training curricula and the ways teacher trainers teach.

En este artículo se hará referencia a la especificidad de los aprendizajes en relación con la enseñanza que se logran alcanzar en el marco de una carrera de profesorado de modalidad consecutiva o de complementación curricular, oferta destinada a graduados universitarios que deciden desempeñarse en la docencia. De acuerdo con los resultados de una tesis doctoral que se enfocó en este tema, los aprendizajes logrados se caracterizan como pasaje/s. El abordaje de esta problemática fue posible a través de un diseño metodológico de tipo cualitativo por cuanto se intentó explorar la forma en que los sujetos perciben y experimentan el fenómeno, sus puntos de vista, interpretaciones y significados. Se propone analizar uno de los aprendizajes más destacados: el ingreso a las escuelas, a las aulas y dar clase, se lo piensa en tanto rito de iniciación y rito material, conceptos tomados de la teoría de rito de paso de Van Gennep (2008). Finalmente, se presentan algunas reflexiones en torno a los aspectos didácticos de la formación, la centralidad de las prácticas en el curriculum y las prácticas de enseñanza de los formadores.
Fantasías constructivas de la identidad narco a través de la estética. Una mirada relacional con el arte contemporáneo
Authors: Sáez Pradas Fernando
Published: July 2022

In this article we silver the drift of an imaginary. Narratives on the narco aesthetic and its possibilities in relation to contemporary artistic practices.We start from Matisse’s utopia to approach the postmodern scenario proposed, almost a hundred years later, by artists who come from the mostextravagant kitsch and capitalist universe, such as Damien Hirst, Maurizio Cattelan or Jeff Koons, where opulence, luxury and money are articulated in aperverse and ironic speech. In this tour we pay attention to aspects of life such as architecture, fashion, music, cinema or television series produced by theNetflix platform. We highlight the importance of drug trafficker Pablo Escobar, an icon of eccentricity and power, and we particularly point out his HaciendaNapoles, a symbol of the Medellin cartel. On this estate, he created his own zoo where hippos have ended up as ready-mades, transnational symbols thatserve to produce new and exotic realities. Throughout the text we observe how crime and the illegal, in innumerable bizarre turns of postmodern history,are incorporated into the narrative and even into aesthetic theory.

En este artículo plateamos la deriva de un imaginario. Narrativas sobre la estética narco y sus posibilidades en relación con las prácticas artísticascontemporáneas. Partimos de la utopía de Matisse para acercarnos al escenario posmoderno que proponen, casi cien años después, artistas queprovienen del universo kitsch y capitalista más extravagante, como Damien Hirst, Maurizio Cattelan o Jeff Koons, donde la opulencia, lujo y dinero searticulan en un perverso e irónico discurso. En este recorrido prestamos atención a aspectos de la vida como la arquitectura, la moda, la música, el cineo las series de televisión producidas por la plataforma Netflix. Destacamos la importancia del narcotraficante Pablo Escobar, icono de la excentricidady poder, y señalamos de manera especial su Hacienda Nápoles, símbolo del cartel de Medellín. En esta finca creó su propio zoológico donde hipopótamoshan acabado convertidos en ready-mades, en símbolos transnacionales que sirven para producir nuevas y exóticas realidades. A lo largo del textoobservamos como el delito y lo ilegal, en innumerables giros rocambolescos de la historia posmoderna, se incorporan a la narrativa e incluso a la teoríaestética.
Aproximaciones al consumo cultural hacia las músicas ligadas al narcotráfico y sus personajes: El caso de sinaloenses en Los Ángeles California (1970-2000)
Authors: Fernández Velázquez Juan Antonio
Published: July 2022

Corridos are musical expressions that Mexicans have adopted as a genre converted into a vehicle to communicate through oral tradition, but also to have fun and accompany the leisure and recreation of those who listen and consume them, activating their memory and sensitivity. We understand by consumption what is detached from cultural merchandise, such as music; in the case of drug-trafficking corridos, they become melodies that the individual appropriates and adapts to their daily life with different meanings. In this work we take as a case study the Sinaloenses located in Los Angeles California.

Los corridos son expresiones musicales que los mexicanos han adoptado como un género convertido en un vehículo para comunicarse mediante la tradición oral, pero además para divertirse y acompañar el ocio y la recreación de quienes los escuchan y consumen, activando su memoria y sensibilidad. Entendemos por consumo lo desprendido de las mercancías culturales, como las músicas; en el caso de los corridos de narcotráfico se convierten en melodías que el individuo apropia y adapta a su cotidianidad con diversas significaciones. En este trabajo tomamos como estudio de caso a los sinaloenses radicados en Los Ángeles California.

In a society undergoing constant change, the school environment becomes an unbeatable context for combating the generation gap and promoting intergenerational experiences (IE). For this reason, this article aims to analyze IE in the context of formal education to clarify the parameters for action, common characteristics, and benefits. To this end, a systematic review has been carried out from 2010 to 2018 in the Web of Science, Scopus, Education Database (Proquest), and ERIC databases. The search concluded with a total of 515 screened records of which 58 met the inclusion criteria. Also, six specialized websites were analyzed as informal sources. Greater interest has been shown in the problem of the aging population and the promotion of IE in the school environment. The analysis provides evidence of the impact that this type of experience has on the participants (students, older people), the school environment, and the community. Therefore, IE is presented as sustainable alternatives that help to generate more cohesive and inclusive societies.
