Los maestros y las maestras de escuela en el Estado institutor: su profesionalización y vinculación a la burocracia del Estado Soberano de Santander, 1870-1885
Authors: Acevedo Tarazona Álvaro , Malte Arévalo Rolando Humberto
Published: March 2018

Este artículo describe y analiza el proceso de profesionalización y de vinculación de los maestros y maestras de escuela al aparato burocrático del Estado Soberano de Santander a partir de la Reforma Instruccionista de 1870. Se argumenta que la puesta en marcha de un sistema de profesionalización de maestros y maestras, así como su vinculación a la burocracia estatal fueron los principales aportes de aquella reforma educativa liberal, dadas las implicaciones institucionales y sociales que trajo consigo, como lo fueron el reconocimiento de un nuevo estatus disciplinar y profesional para la docencia y la aparición de una nueva figura estatal: el maestro de escuela, un aspecto de la Reforma aún no señalado por la historiografía especializada. El estudio se apoya en información primaria de orden oficial, así como en la historiografía que ha abordado el tema de la Reforma para generar una representación histórica del impacto institucional y social de la reforma educativa más importante del siglo XIX colombiano.

Authors: Muñoz Montilla Alba Nubia , Páramo Bernal Pablo
Published: March 2018

A pesar de importantes avances en los últimos años en el desarrollo de políticas de educación en materia ambiental, es poco lo que se sabe del impacto y la efectividad del sinnúmero de actividades, proyectos e iniciativas derivadas de estas políticas en torno a la conservación de los recursos ecológicos y principalmente sobre la formación de las personas en conductas proambientales. En el artículo se formula un sistema de indicadores de educación ambiental, inexistentes de manera formal en Colombia, con la intención de monitorear los alcances y el desarrollo de las acciones educativas que se promueven y emprenden desde distintas políticas y programas institucionales. El sistema propuesto incluye pautas operativas para la recolección de información de los procesos de educación ambiental, en torno a comportamientos ambientalmente relevantes. Con esto se espera contribuir a gestionar y proyectar la educación ambiental en sus distintos niveles de actuación y consolidar conocimiento alrededor de aquellas acciones que resultan más eficaces.
La tecnología digital como herramienta para la democratización de ideas matemáticas poderosas
Authors: Palmas Pérez Santiago
Published: March 2018

En este artículo se analiza el papel de la tecnología como medio de acceso a ideas matemáticas poderosas (Skovsmose y Valero, 2009) en la educación matemática para jóvenes y adultos. En particular, se busca responder a la pregunta: ¿puede la tecnología fungir como puente entre las prácticas matemáticas culturales y su modelización en favor de un acceso democrático a ideas matemáticas poderosas? Se plantea la posibilidad de que la tecnología se utilice como herramienta democratizadora de dichas ideas, siempre y cuando se aborden necesidades educativas con base en concepciones matemáticas previas establecidas por los propios educandos. En el escrito se presenta un desarrollo didáctico, basado en la teoría de situaciones didácticas (Brousseau, 1997), así como las decisiones que condujeron al desarrollo de una herramienta tecnológica ad hoc, que sirviera como puente hacia ideas matemáticas poderosas. Se muestra cómo ambos diseños promovieron la construcción de conceptos e ideas matemáticas poderosas al tiempo que se discute sobre la posibilidad de usar la tecnología como herramienta democratizadora del conocimiento.

Authors: Howard Montaner Sebastian , San Martín Constanza , Salas Guzmán Natalia , Blanco Vargas Pamela Margarita , Diaz Carcamo Cecilia Jaqueline
Published: March 2018

En Chile, los estudiantes con discapacidad intelectual (di) asisten a escuelas especiales o a escuelas regulares con programas de integración escolar (pie). Hasta la fecha se carece de información respecto de las oportunidades de aprendizaje (oda) que se proporcionan a estos estudiantes en ambos contextos. El estudio que se presenta es parte de una investigación mayor, cuyo propósito es explorar las oda de las matemáticas que se generan en centros de educación especial para estudiantes con di. Se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con profesores y directivos de escuelas especiales, con el objetivo de indagar cuáles son sus creencias sobre la enseñanza, sobre los estudiantes con di y las matemáticas. Los resultados indican que la enseñanza a estudiantes con di requiere de mucho tiempo de planificación, de un currículo flexible que se adapte a las necesidades individuales, de uso de material concreto y de una evaluación individualizada. Respecto de los estudiantes, los entrevistados indican que no hay fórmulas generales y que se debe tratar cada caso de manera individual. Finalmente, profesores y directivos estiman que la enseñanza de las matemáticas para estudiantes con di son principalmente el conteo y las operaciones con números, lo cual excluye del currículo ofrecido espacios para el desarrollo de otras habilidades matemáticas.
Estudio piloto de la toxicidad de los sedimentos del río Pasto en el tramo La Playita-Puente La Carolina, asociada al uso de pesticidas
Authors: Jurado Eraso Mario Alberto
Published: March 2018

El objetivo del presente estudio piloto fue analizar la toxicidad de los sedimentos del río Pasto en el tramo La Playita-Puente La Carolina en la cuenca alta, una zona con importante actividad agrope­cuaria donde el agua tiene múltiples usos, utilizando bacterias bioluminiscentes Vibrio fischeri como bioindicadores de toxicidad. El estudio se basó en la hipótesis de que ciertos microcontaminantes derivados del uso pesticidas en la zona, son transportados entre las matrices aguas/sedimentos y son los responsables de los niveles de toxicidad hallados. Los resultados señalan niveles variables de toxicidad y posiblemente el fenómeno predominante sea el transporte de pesticidas o sus me­tabolitos en la masa de agua. Además, se infiere que posiblemente la concentración de plaguicidas no sea la principal causa de los niveles de toxicidad hallados y probablemente podrían asociarse a otras sustancias derivadas del vertimiento de aguas residuales y lixiviados.
21st Century Stock Market: A Regulatory Model for Daily Fantasy Sports
Authors: Jessop Alicia
Published: March 2018

The popularity of daily fantasy sports contests has risen exponentially as daily fantasy sports providers have raised hundreds of millions of dollars in seed funding from major sport industry and media stakeholders. Amongst this industry rise, concerns over whether the industry’s consumer protection mechanisms are stringent enough have arisen. In response, individual states executed varied approaches to regulating the industry within their borders. Some have imposed complete bans, while few allow the industry to widely operate and others have imposed significant regulations. States’ responses to the daily fantasy sports industry are akin to state legislators’ regulation of the securities industry in the 20th century. This paper analyzes state and federal regulations imposed on the securities industry in the 20th century to provide an argument as to why federal regulation of the daily fantasy sports industry is necessary.

Authors: Smith Thomas E. , Richards Kristin V. , Panisch Lisa S. , Shelton Victoria M.
Published: March 2018

Social work clients need financial literacy skills. Many clients are faced with the task of overcoming increasingly complex and challenging financial obstacles that can take a dire toll on their physical and environmental stability and mental well-being. Social workers who lack skills in financial literacy are at a disadvantage when helping their clients overcome economic hardships. Financial therapy is an emerging intervention that merges techniques of psychotherapy with financial education. This integrated approach can be used by social workers in generalist settings to promote financial problem solving. Few baccalaureate social work (BSW) programs provide students with education about financial problem solving from this angle. A curriculum model and overview of a pilot course introducing BSW students to a manualized form of this approach is presented. Overall, students found the course beneficial and expressed interest in using this intervention in practice. Student feedback is reviewed, along with directions for further study.
Organización del espacio global en la geopolítica “clásica”: una mirada desde la geopolítica crítica
Authors: González Tule Luis
Published: March 2018

La geopolítica nace y se desarrolla en la era de mayor rivalidad imperialista entre 1870 y 1945, un periodo caracterizado por la competencia entre imperios europeos, dos guerras mundiales, la alteración de las fronteras y del mapa político, grandes desarrollos tecnológicos y una transformación en las relaciones de poder (Ó Tuathail, 1998b). El presente trabajo pretende analizar cómo fue organizado el espacio global en la primera mitad del siglo XX por los autores “clásicos”, todos ellos provenientes de las principales potencias. Desde la óptica de la geopolítica crítica, se argumenta que en la primera mitad del siglo XX tanto Europa como Estados Unidos establecieron un discurso dominante a través de “modelos geopolíticos” para organizar el espacio siguiendo sus propios intereses e identidades nacionales.

Published: March 2018

Background: We aimed to compare perinatal outcomes of intracytoplasmicsperm injection (ICSI) versus naturally (spontaneously) concieved age and parity matched group of singleton pregnants.
Methods: Two hundred and sixteen singleton pregnancies aged between 18-45 years old were included in this study.  Among all study group, 106 cases were ICSI pregnancies (study group) and 110 cases were spontaneously concieved singleton pregnancies (control group).  Pregnancy outcome parameters were: the incidence of chronic hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, placenta previa, placental abruption, preterm birth, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, gestational diabetes, preterm premature rupture of membranes, caesarean delivery.
Results: There were no differences in terms of maternal age, BMI, gravidity, parity, gestational weeks at birth and birth weight between ICSI and spontaneously concieved pregnancy groups. Placental abruption, gestational diabetes and cesarean section rates were significantly higher in ICSI pregnancies than spontaneously conceived pregnancies (4.7% vs 0%, 21.7% vs 11.8% and 82.1% vs 68.2%, respectively). There wereno statistically significant differences in terms of chronic hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, preterm labor, placenta previa, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, preterm and term premature rupture of the membranes.
Conclusion: ICSI pregnancies have higher adverse perinatal outcomes than spontaneously conceived singleton pregnancies which were matched with age and parity. That’s why ICSI pregnancies should be given a detailed counseling about the adverse perinatal outcomes and should be followed up more carefully through the pregnancy.

Published: March 2018

Beans are grown in different environments. The most important issue in bean agriculture is to increase seed yield as expected in other plants. As well reported so far, environmental factors such as rain, heat, their timing and topography affect yield and yield quality in dry beans. So, this study was conducted in 2011-2015 in Samsun (Ambarkopru and Gelemen) and Kirsehir (Mucur and Cogun) locations in order to investigate the effects of the environmental factors on dry bean. For this aim, 20 dry bean genotypes (7 cultivars and 13 pure lines) were used as plant materials. Results showed that G5, G11 and G15 genotypes were close to ideal genotypes. When the year was considered as the environmental factor, the ideal production year was in 2013 with respect to yield and yield quality, concluding that climate changes between years affected yield parameters in dry bean genotypes.
Character association of seed yield and its components in some lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) genotypes under normal and late sown condition
Authors: Choudhury Debashree Roy , Kundagrami Sabyasachi
Published: March 2018

Character association in forty eight genotypes of lentil was studied for nine different agro-morphological characters in normal and late sown conditions. Normal sown condition was taken into consideration as optimum environment and late sown as heat stressed environment. The correlation study revealed consistent positive significant character association (at genotypic and phenotypic levels) of pods per plant with seed yield per plant in both sowing conditions. So this character may be considered for yield improvement. From path coefficient analysis study it was revealed that pods per plant showed consistently positive direct effect on seed yield/plant for both sowing conditions.

European Refugee Crisis: Where Do Public Intellectuals Stand?
Authors: De Medeiros Pilar Damiao
Published: March 2018

The European refugee crisis has become one of the most puzzling aspects of European society and politics. The continent’s worst humanitarian crisis since World War II has prompted a novel political and social labyrinth. As European leaders struggle to respond to the increasing number of refugees crossing their countries’ borders, divisions tend to become more visible in the public debate. This paper explores the different positions of European public intellectuals: from French intellectuals, such as Finkielkraut, Houellebecq and Onfray, who tend to show sympathy with right-wing Islamophobic populism, to Jürgen Habermas, Zygmunt Bauman, Slavoj Zizek, among others, who appeal to relieve the refugee emergency.Whereas some still condemn war and imperialism, oppression and the violation of universal values, others appear to be embedded in national parochialism and dangerous radical positions.

Authors: Vandana Kumari , Islam Adlul , Sarthi P. Parth , Sikka Alok K. , Kapil Hemlata
Published: March 2018

The impact of future climate change on streamflow in the Brahmani River basin, India has been assessed using a distributed parameter hydrological model Precipitation Runoff Modelling System (PRMS) and multi-model ensemble climate change scenarios. The multi-model ensemble climate change scenarios were generated using the Hybrid-Delta ensemble method for A2, A1B, and B1 emission scenarios for three different future periods of the 2020s (2010–2039), 2050s (2040–2069) and 2080s (2070–2099). There is an increase in annual mean temperature in the range of 0.8–1.0, 1.5–2.0 and 2.0–3.3 °C during the 2020s, 2050s, and 2080s, respectively. Annual rainfall is projected to change in the range of −1.6–1.6, 1.6–3.1, and 4.8–8.1% during the 2020s, 2050s and 2080s, respectively. Simulation results indicated changes in annual streamflow in the range of −2.2–2.5, 2.4–4.7, and 7.3–12.6% during the 2020s, 2050s, and 2080s, respectively. Simulation results showed an increase in high flows and reduction in low flows, but the frequency of both high and low flow increases during future periods. The results of this work will be useful in developing a water management adaptation plan in the study basin.
Regulation of RNA Editing in Chloroplast
Authors: Tang Wei
Published: March 2018

RNA editing is an important process involved in the modification of nucleotides in the transcripts of a large number of functional genes. RNA editing results in the restoration of conserved amino acid residues for protein function in plants. In this review, I only describe and discuss the identified RNA editing and the RNA editing associated regulation in chloroplast, including cytidine-to-uridine editing, adenosine-to-inosine editing, and regulation of RNA editing in model plants, crop plants, woody plants, and medical plants. Information described in this review could be valuable in future investigation of molecular mechanisms that determine the specificity of the RNA editing process.
The Effect of CaBr2 on Mercury Speciation in Flue Gas: An Experimental and DFT Study
Authors: Zhong Jun , Li Fangyong , Yang Weijie
Published: March 2018

Background:

Additives affect the formation of different mercury speciation in coal-fired derived flue gas.

Objective:

In order to study the effect of the additive CaBr2 content, the Ontario Hydro Method (OHM) method has been applied to analyze the mercury speciation at the entrance and export of denitration (SCR).

Method:

Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been used to study the adsorption of mercury halide on unburned carbon surface.

Result:

The results show that along with the increasing amount of additive CaBr2, there is an increasing trend of the ratio of Hg2+ in flue gas.

Conclusion:

CaBr2 addition contributes to oxidize Hg 0 to Hg2+ and increase the mercury concentration through SCR. DFT results indicate that the adsorption of HgBr and HgBr2 on unburned carbon surface is chemisorption, and Br-C bond is stronger than Hg-C bond, both these bonds are covalent interaction.

Electronic Health Records as an Educational Tool: Viewpoint (Preprint)
Authors: Habboush Yacob , Hoyt Robert , Beidas Sary
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

Electronic health records (EHRs) have been adopted by most hospitals and medical offices in the United States. Because of the rapidity of implementation, health care providers have not been able to leverage the full potential of the EHR for enhancing clinical care, learning, and teaching. Physicians are spending an average of 49% of their working hours on EHR documentation, chart review, and other indirect tasks related to patient care, which translates into less face time with patients.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this article is to provide a preliminary framework to guide the use of EHRs in teaching and evaluation of residents.

METHODS

First we discuss EHR educational capabilities that have not been reviewed in sufficient detail in the literature and expand our discussion for each educational activity with examples. We emphasize quality improvement of clinical notes as a basic foundational skill using a spreadsheet-based application as an assessment tool. Next, we integrate the six Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Core Competencies and Milestones (CCMs) framework with the Reporter-Interpreter-Manager-Educator (RIME) model to expand our assessments of other areas of resident performance related to EHR use. Finally, we discuss how clinical utility, clinical outcome, and clinical reasoning skills can be assessed in the EHR.

RESULTS

We describe a pilot conceptual framework—CCM framework—to guide and demonstrate the use of the EHR for education in a clinical setting.

CONCLUSIONS

As EHRs and other supporting technologies evolve, medical educators should continue to look for new opportunities within the EHR for education. Our framework is flexible to allow adaptation and use in most training programs. Future research should assess the validity of such methods on trainees’ education.

A strategic location is a place for facility location that built and is able to give maximum advantages for the company. The problem of deciding location is important in optimization area. In general, the solution of that problem focuses on facility placement that is able to minimize or maximizing distribution time, distance, transportation cost or another parameter. Therefore, an appropriate model is needed to determine the strategic location of warehouse establishment. The purpose of this research is to develop a Capacitated Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) model that can be used in determining the location of warehouse establishment that can maximize the number of demands that can be served. From the model, the company not only finds the optimum location to establish the facility but also they can know the number of goods allocated from the distribution center to each demand point as well as the maximum number of demand that can be served.

Published: March 2018

Introduction/Objective. Cardiovascular diabetic autonomic neuropathy (CDAN) mainly affects heart rhythm through sympathovagal imbalance. The objective of the study is to determine CDAN risk potential regarding electrical complications of acute myocardial ischemia (AMI), including admission glucose profile levels (AGP). Methods. Seventy-six patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus were divided into two age-matched groups related to the presence of CDAN, and the influence of AGP on electrical complications was estimated. Ewing?s tests were used for diagnosis of CDAN. Results. Patients without CDAN have 42.86% risk for developing electrical complication into early post-AMI period. If it is a pre-existing condition, the risk is 63.64%, which is obvious, but not statistically significant. Considering the AGP, levels above 12.25 mmol/L as predictive for post-AMI electrical complications, in CDAN-positive patients with AGP levels above that cut-off value, the risk for electrical complications is raising up to 73.68%. The patients with CDAN who have AGP levels above the cut-off value have statistically higher risk for development electrical complications than those with lower levels (Z = 2.58, p < 0.01). On the other side, those without CDAN and with level of AGP lower than 12.25 mmol/L, the risk for electrical complications developing is as low as 23.08%. Conclusion. CDAN may be an important independent risk factor for electrical complications in postmyocardial ischemia period.

Published: March 2018

Objectives:

The aim of this study was to assess the dimensional accuracy of fused deposition modeling (FDM)–, Polyjet-, and stereolithography (SLA)–produced models by comparing them to traditional plaster casts.

Materials and

A total of 12 maxillary and mandibular posttreatment orthodontic plaster casts were selected from the archives of the Orthodontic Department at the Indiana University School of Dentistry. Plaster models were scanned, saved as stereolithography files, and printed as physical models using three different three-dimensional (3D) printers: Makerbot Replicator (FDM), 3D Systems SLA 6000 (SLA), and Objet Eden500V (Polyjet). A digital caliper was used to obtain measurements on the original plaster models as well as on the printed resin models.Methods:

Results:

Comparison between the 3D printed models and the plaster casts showed no statistically significant differences in most of the parameters. However, FDM was significantly higher on average than were plaster casts in maxillary left mixed plane (MxL-MP) and mandibular intermolar width (Md-IMW). Polyjet was significantly higher on average than were plaster casts in maxillary intercanine width (Mx-ICW), mandibular intercanine width (Md-ICW), and mandibular left mixed plane (MdL-MP). Polyjet was significantly lower on average than were plaster casts in maxillary right vertical plane (MxR-vertical), maxillary left vertical plane (MxL-vertical), mandibular right anteroposterior plane (MdR-AP), mandibular right vertical plane (MdR-vertical), and mandibular left vertical plane (MdL-vertical). SLA was significantly higher on average than were plaster casts in MxL-MP, Md-ICW, and overbite. SLA was significantly lower on average than were plaster casts in MdR-vertical and MdL-vertical.

Conclusions:

Dental models reconstructed by FDM technology had the fewest dimensional measurement differences compared to plaster models.

Isu keamanan internasional senantiasa meramaikan Kajian Hubungan Internasional. Sebagai salah satu bidang kajian utama, konsep keamanan dalam Kajian Keamanan Internasional mengalami perkembangan genealogisnya melalui perdebatan-perdebatan, dari keamanan yang bersifat tradisional (politik-militeristik) sampai nirtradisional (manusiawi dan alternatif) oleh para intelektual Hubungan Internasional. Konteks historis penting yang berlaku pada ruang dan masanya turut melahirkan secara kritis teks keamanan. Teks-teks keamanan tradisional yang berlaku pada masa Perang Dunia I, Perang Dunia II, dan Perang Dingin dengan batasan keamanan yang memfokuskan pada negara sebagai aktor kunci keamanan (pivotal player), sumber ancaman sekaligus pencipta stabilitas keamanan, mengalami anomali (changes and challenges).
