Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND

Hand hygiene is a crucial and cost-effective method to prevent health care–associated infections, and in 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) issued guidelines to encourage and standardize hand hygiene procedures. However, a common challenge in health care settings is low adherence, leading to low handwashing quality. Recent advances in machine learning and wearable sensing have made it possible to accurately measure handwashing quality for the purposes of training, feedback, or accreditation.

OBJECTIVE

We measured the accuracy of a sensor armband (Myo armband) in detecting the steps and duration of the WHO procedures for handwashing and handrubbing.

METHODS

We recruited 20 participants (10 females; mean age 26.5 years, SD 3.3). In a semistructured environment, we collected armband data (acceleration, gyroscope, orientation, and surface electromyography data) and video data from each participant during 15 handrub and 15 handwash sessions. We evaluated the detection accuracy for different armband placements, sensor configurations, user-dependent vs user-independent models, and the use of bootstrapping.

RESULTS

Using a single armband, the accuracy was 96% (SD 0.01) for the user-dependent model and 82% (SD 0.08) for the user-independent model. This increased when using two armbands to 97% (SD 0.01) and 91% (SD 0.04), respectively. Performance increased when the armband was placed on the forearm (user dependent: 97%, SD 0.01; and user independent: 91%, SD 0.04) and decreased when placed on the arm (user dependent: 96%, SD 0.01; and user independent: 80%, SD 0.06). In terms of bootstrapping, user-dependent models can achieve more than 80% accuracy after six training sessions and 90% with 16 sessions. Finally, we found that the combination of accelerometer and gyroscope minimizes power consumption and cost while maximizing performance.

CONCLUSIONS

A sensor armband can be used to measure hand hygiene quality relatively accurately, in terms of both handwashing and handrubbing. The performance is acceptable using a single armband worn in the upper arm but can substantially improve by placing the armband on the forearm or by using two armbands.

La nueva regulación de los drones en el derecho de la Unión Europea
Authors: González Botija Fernando
Published: November 2019

Se han publicado las normas europeas comunes sobre drones, el
Reglamento (UE) 2018/1139 del Parlamento Europeo y del Consejo y los
Reglamentos Delegado (UE) 2019/945 y de Ejecución (UE) 2019/947 de la
Comisión. Se trata de garantizar que las operaciones de drones en Europa
sean seguras. Las reglas ayudarán, entre otras cosas, a proteger la seguridad
y la privacidad de los ciudadanos de la UE al tiempo que permiten la libre
circulación de drones y reglas de juego equitativas de la Unión Europea. Las
nuevas normas incluyen requisitos técnicos y operativos para los drones. Por
un lado, definen las capacidades que un dron debe tener para volar de forma
segura. Por otro lado, las reglas cubren cada tipo de operación, desde aquellas
que no requieren autorización previa, hasta aquellas que involucran a
aeronaves y operadores certificados, así como los requisitos mínimos de
entrenamiento remoto para pilotos. Las nuevas normas reemplazarán las
normas nacionales existentes en los Estados miembros de la UE.

Se presenta una reflexión sobre lo relevante hoy de motivar más conciencia de los demás
sobre la salud mental y la prevención de la farmacodependencia a temprana edad, desde la
ecología humana y el arte; como un aporte al desarrollo humano integral sostenible, diverso
y equitativo en una institución educativa colombiana. Se trata de una investigación
cualitativa de carácter hermenéutico, a partir de una experiencia académica que permite
inferir que no se tiene la suficiente claridad de la importancia de la formación de
formadores para la educación social en derechos; máxime en el derecho superior de la
educación de las niñas, niños y jóvenes. Se concluye lo transcendental de mejorar y
fortalecer capacidades y habilidades de aprender a pensar, leer, escribir, analizar, discutir y
a proponer proyectos que implementen nuevas metodologías de aprendizajes innovadores
desde el enfoque humano, en perspectiva de derechos y salud integral.

Published: November 2019

Este artículo presenta posibilidad de configurar un modelo de gestión estratégico y sistémico para las entidades educativas como organizaciones inteligentes. Lo estratégico se relaciona con la articulación de estructuras organizacionales y su propia gestión para garantizar fines de una entidad. Lo sistémico trata de identificar las instancias organizativas y sus relaciones entre sí para desarrollar una gestión de alto nivel que garantice el cumplimiento de su función. El artículo toma como base el estado del arte de una investigación en curso, donde tiene por objeto caracterizar seis secretarías de educación en Colombia de entidades territoriales certificadas (ETC), para administrar y ofrecer el servicio público educativo. Es la primera fase de un proyecto a mediano plazo, en la segunda fase se diseñará un modelo de gestión y en la tercera, la validación de este modelo. La metodología empleada es de contrastación teórica con reorganización conceptual plasmada en la estructura del documento. Finalmente se dice que la educación es un derecho de las personas que garantiza el Estado y se cumple a través de un sistema educativo el cual lo administra la entidad territorial certificada, por ello, el fin es crear un modelo de gestión estratégico y sistémico que permita potenciar la inteligencia de estas entidades; en estos últimos años las Secretarias de Educación implementaron proceso de Modernización que estableció el Ministerio de Educación Nacional, porque hubo falta de organización, de gestión, de eficiencia y de pertinencia en el desarrollo de los procesos y subprocesos internos y externos, asimismo permitió organizar la planta con sus respectivos perfiles y funciones, este proceso ayudó en alguna medida a obtener mayor organización y gestión.
El ejercicio del poder: el uso del consenso y la violencia en Pasto, 1821-1831
Authors: Chaves Martínez Ingrid Viviana
Published: November 2019

Este artículo presenta los resultados parciales de la investigación titulada: Relaciones de poder en Pasto durante la transición del orden colonial al orden republicano, 1821-1831. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue analizar la configuración de las relaciones de poder a partir de la Historia Social como perspectiva teórico-metodológica que permitió articular aspectos sociales, políticos y económicos de la interacción social de la ciudad de Pasto en el contexto político de la Gran Colombia. En este trabajo se presentan dos características específicas del ejercicio del poder a nivel político y social; en concreto, el uso del consenso de la elite de gobierno local y el uso de la violencia. En medio de la tentativa independentista promovida por la elite quiteña, el retorno del control monárquico, el asedio republicano, los prolongados enfrentamientos militares, el desgate violento de la guerra, la alianza coyuntural entre la elite de gobierno local y el ejército republicano, la ciudad de Pasto pasó de una relación dependiente del poder del imperio español a un nuevo Estado, con cambios políticos y administrativos promovidos por la nueva clase dominante. Desde estas particularidades, el ejercicio del poder tuvo como finalidad establecer un nuevo orden y lograr la subordinación de la población a la nueva autoridad republicana.

Vitamins C and E have been supplemented separately to improve fertility in cattle. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined injections of increased doses of vitamins C and E on reproductive parameters in dairy cattle. Lactating Holstein cows (n= 44) were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: 1) Control: n= 15, cows were not injected with vitamins; 2) VCE3: n= 15, cows received a single intramuscular injection of 3,000 IU of vitamin E before estrus and multiple subcutaneous injections of vitamin C with a total dose of 3,000 mg before and after estrus; 3) VCE6: n= 14, cows were treated as in VCE3, but doses of vitamins C and E were increased to 6,000 mg and 6,000 IU. The reproductive indicators measured were diameter of the preovulatory follicle, time to estrus, area of the corpus luteum, pregnancy rate 35 and 45 d after AI and plasma concentrations of estradiol and progesterone. There was no effect of treatment on any of the evaluated reproductive parameters (P˃0.05), except that the lowest dose of vitamins sustained similar pregnancy rates among treatments, even though they had lower progesterone concentrations (P≤0.05) (19.4 ± 2.66 vs 10.1 ± 2.55 vs 19.2 ± 0.44 ng mL-1 for Control, VCE3 and VCE6, respectively). In conclusion, the supplementation with the highest amount of vitamin C and E (6,000 mg and 6,000 IU versus 3,000 mg and 3,000 IU) does not significantly increase the reproductive parameters measured.
Improved farrowing rate using intrauterine insemination in sows
Authors: Cane Fernando , Pereyra Norma , Cane Valentina , Marini Patricia , Teijeiro Juan Manuel
Published: November 2019

Intrauterine insemination (IUI), a technique that uses a lower number of spermatozoa than conventional artificial insemination (CAI), could contribute to improve reproductive efficiency of boars. However, since some field trial reports show suboptimal performance for IUI, it is necessary to continue evaluating and standardizing this technique. In this work, the use of fixed reduced sperm amounts and doses volumes for IUI respect to CAI using the same semen samples was assessed. The results show an increase in the farrowing rate using IUI vs CAI (84.80 ± 0.36 vs 71.44 ± 2.63, P<0.05). Parameters such as litter size, live piglets/litter, stillborn or mummified fetuses were analyzed as well and showed non-significant differences between techniques. Statistical positive correlation analyses showed a positive correlation between live piglets/litter and stillborn piglets and between stillborn and total number of piglets, only for CAI. In addition, the economic analysis showed a positive impact on the productivity of the farm, and possibly of the region, by lowering costs using IUI instead of CAI. In conclusion, the intrauterine insemination had a positive impact on the reproductive performance and on the economic parameters of porcine production.
Bases del sistema inmune de la abeja melífera (Apis mellifera). Revisión
Authors: Larsen Alejandra , Reynaldi Francisco José , Guzmán-Novoa Ernesto
Published: November 2019

Las abejas melíferas (Apis mellifera) polinizan plantas tanto de sistemas naturales como manejados para la agricultura, contribuyendo a la producción de alimentos y a sostener y aumentar la biodiversidad. Desafortunadamente, en la actualidad ocurren casos de despoblación y pérdida de colonias de abejas en todo el mundo. Diferentes factores contribuyen a la disminución de poblaciones de abejas, entre ellos, patógenos (parásitos, hongos, bacterias y virus), alteración o pérdida de ecosistemas, o el uso de agroquímicos. Todos estos factores alteran los mecanismos de defensa del sistema inmune de las abejas. Las abejas melíferas poseen un sistema inmune innato que incluye barreras físicas, así como respuestas celulares y humorales, que son generalizadas y que les permite defenderse contra organismos infecciosos y parasitarios. Además de los agentes patógenos, acaricidas, fungicidas, herbicidas y otros plaguicidas, han demostrado tener efectos sobre su salud y sistema inmune. Los mecanismos involucrados en la defensa están representados por vías de señalización, receptores de reconocimiento de patógenos y efectores del sistema inmune innato. Aunque el sistema inmune de A. mellifera es muy similar al de las moscas Drosophila y los mosquitos Anopheles, solo poseen aproximadamente un tercio de los genes relacionados al sistema inmune de esos insectos. Este menor número de genes se debería al hecho de que A. mellifera posee inmunidad social, que es una estrategia de defensa que disminuye la presión sobre el sistema inmune individual de las abejas. En este artículo de revisión se discuten las bases del sistema inmune de la abeja melífera.

Caracterizar el crecimiento ayuda en la toma de decisiones de manejo, comercialización y mejoramiento genético. El objetivo fue identificar un modelo no lineal (MNL) para describir la curva de crecimiento en borregas de registro a través de siete razas. Se evaluó el peso vivo, desde el nacimiento hasta los 230 d de edad, de las razas Blackbelly (BB; n= 19,084), Pelibuey (PE; n= 39,025), Dorper (DR; n= 35,814), Katahdin (KT; n= 74,154), Suffolk (SF; n= 10,267), Hampshire (HS; n= 7561) y Rambouillet (RB; n= 7,384). Se evaluaron los MNL: Brody (BRO), Verhulst (VER), Von Bertalanffy (VBE), Gompertz (GOM), Mitscherlich (MIT) y Logístico (LOG). Los análisis se realizaron con el software SAS. Los criterios para seleccionar el modelo con mejor ajuste fueron: error de predicción promedio, varianza del error de predicción, estadístico Durbin-Watson, coeficiente de determinación, raíz del cuadrado medio del error, criterios de información Akaike y Bayesiano. Para HS, PE y SF, el mejor modelo fue VBE, con una curva sigmoide y edad al punto de inflexión entre 40 y 57 d. Los modelos BRO y MIT tuvieron el mejor ajuste para KT, BB, DR y RB, con una curva continua, sin punto de inflexión y tasa de crecimiento constante. Para peso adulto se observaron marcadas diferencias, con valores promedio (kg) de 44.6 en BB, 49.2 en RB, 52.9 en PE, 55.6 en HS, 60.2 en KT, 64.7 en SF y 65.2 en DR; con la tendencia de valores mayores para los modelos BRO y MIT, y los menores para LOG y VER.
Eficacia del humo de frutos de Guazuma ulmifolia (Sterculiaceae) y vapores de timol para el control de Varroa destructor infestando abejas africanizadas
Authors: De Jesús May-Itzá William , Medina Medina Luis Abdelmir Abdelmir
Published: November 2019

Se evaluó la eficacia del humo de los frutos secos de Guazuma ulmifolia y los vapores de timol en el control del ácaro Varroa destructor infestando colonias de abejas africanizadas (Apis mellifera) de Yucatán. Se utilizaron tres tratamientos: Grupo 1 (G1), las colonias de abejas recibieron 5 a 8 bocanadas de humo de los frutos secos de G. ulmifolia dos veces por semana, durante un período de tres semanas; Grupo 2 (G2), las colonias recibieron 4-8 g de cristales de timol con tres aplicaciones cada siete días, y Grupo 3 (G3 o grupo control) las colonias no recibieron ningún tratamiento durante las tres semanas del experimento. Se colectaron 200 a 300 abejas adultas de cada colonia previo a la aplicación de los tratamientos (día 0) y a los 7, 14 y 21 días después de las aplicaciones, con la finalidad de determinar los niveles de infestación y eficacia de los tratamientos. Los resultados indican que los niveles de infestación de V. destructor en las abejas adultas disminuyeron al final del experimento (21 días) y fueron estadísticamente diferentes para los tres tratamientos, siendo menor para G2. La eficacia al final de los tratamientos fue de 41 y 69 %, para G1 y G2, respectivamente. Estos resultados corroboran que la aplicación de cristales de timol es una alternativa para el control del ácaro V. destructor en Yucatán, y que la aplicación del humo de los frutos secos de G. ulmifolia reduce los niveles de infestación de este parásito en comparación con las colonias que no recibieron ningún tipo de tratamiento (G3).

Published: November 2019

In the second language classroom, the teacher sometimes reminds or rebuke the students’ mistake by using the cynical word. This word is considered inappropriate because it tends to disparage the students. Thus it can hurt their feeling. This study is aimed to investigate the students’ attitude toward the cynical words used by the teacher in the classroom interaction. The method used was qualitative. The respondents were students at one vocational school in Batujajar, Bandung. The interview was used as the instrument to collect the data. The question of the interview was developed based on the component of attitude proposed by (Schiffman & Kanuk, 2004). The result showed that the students had a positive attitude toward the cynical words used by the teacher in the classroom. They thought it was quite effective to remind them of their mistake. Unfortunately, it had a negative impact on the students feeling. The students felt sad and embarrassed when the teacher rebuke them in front of their classmate. This indicates the teacher cannot use cynical words too often in the classroom interaction. It is better for them to use the other way that is more appropriate in reminding the students’ mistake.Keywords: attitude, cynical words, classroom interaction

We broaden our understanding of investor materiality, finding it to be asymmetrical for good and bad news. Motivated by legal and standards-based materiality definitions, we consider both participants' stated materiality limits and investment judgments, as well as the effect of auditors' materiality disclosures on those judgments. The study employs a 3 × 2 experiment manipulating materiality disclosure (high or low materiality number or no disclosure) and gain or loss subsequent events of equal magnitude. Absent disclosure, non-professional investors report lower materiality thresholds than typical auditor limits, and they exhibit lower materiality levels for bad news relative to good news both in their stated preferences and investment decisions. We find that disclosure reduces the distance between user and auditor materiality and eliminates the asymmetry in investors' stated materiality levels. However, disclosure fails to attenuate asymmetry in investment decisions, suggesting materiality preferences are “sticky” and difficult to affect through disclosure.

Engagement for lecturer in Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi (Three Principles of Higher Education) across the higher education has been widely investigated. However, the professional lecturer implementation had not shown practical packaging and could not reach all the skills that gift practically needed in the higher education role. The study aim is to describe the professionalism development of lecturers of Islamic higher education institutions in West Sumatera, Indonesia from the aspects of education, research, and community services, as constituted in the Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi. Descriptive quantitative research method was used where the data taken from questionnaire and documentation. The population of the study includes 616 lecturers spreading from three Islamic state universities, with a sample of 62 lecturers. The finding showed that the professionalism development of the lecturers was done by designing lesson plans, pursuing doctoral education, attending conferences and workshops, involving students in community activities, and filling for intellectual property rights on their research. This indicates that the education and teaching, research and service can be used as a means of developing professional lectures at Islamic higher education institutions.

На современном этапе мало научных работ по всестороннему изучению факторов, приводящих к вульвовагиниту у девочек. Целью исследования было разработать программу прогнозирования риска вульвовагинита у девочек в детском и подростковом возрасте. В исследовании приняли участие 252 здоровые девочки, которых разделили на группы в зависимости от стадии полового развития по Таннеру. У всех было проведено определение состава микрофлоры влагалища методом полимеразной цепной реакции (ПЦР) в режиме реального времени и распределение частот аллелей и генотипов полиморфных вариантов генов провоспалительных и противовоспалительных цитокинов. На основании полученных данных разработана рабочая модель по прогнозированию развития вульвовагинитов у девочек с учетом стадии полового развития. Благоприятными факторами для девочек на I стадии полового развития были преобладание облигатных анаэробов в микробиоте влагалища и гомозигота ТТ полиморфного варианта гена IL10 (С-819Т). Чувствительность модели составила 80%, специфичность — 78%. Для девочек в препубертатном и пубертатном периодах — преобладание аэробов в микробиоте влагалища и гомозигота ТТ полиморфного варианта гена IL10 (С-3953Т). Чувствительность модели составила 58,3%, специфичность — 94,1%. С позиции доказательной медицины обоснована необходимость профилактических мероприятий в группах риска по развитию вульвовагинитов в детском возрасте, позволяющая снизить частоту рецидивов бактериального вульвовагинита в 3 раза.

В условиях ужесточения борьбы с допингом и ограничения использования синтетических фармпрепаратов ведется поиск эффективных средств для повышения физической работоспособности и ускорения восстановления спортсменов. Одним из таких средств является воздействие низкоинтенсивным лазерным излучением (НИЛИ). Целью настоящего исследования было изучение физиологического ответа функциональных систем высококвалифицированных гребцов-академистов (женщины) на курсовое воздействие НИЛИ. Для наблюдения за организмом спортсменок использовали лазерную допплеровскую флоуметрию (ЛДФ), математический анализ сердечного ритма, нейроэнергокартирование, а также педагогическое тестирование с использованием тренажера Concept 2. После освечивания шеи в области проекции сонных артерий импульсным инфракрасным НИЛИ наблюдали повышение показателя перфузии крови на 38% (р < 0,05), показателя утилизации кислорода клетками на 48% (р < 0,05), а также снижение показателя сатурации гемоглобина кислородом на 16% (р < 0,05). В результате применения НИЛИ происходило повышение активности автономного механизма регуляции с ростом мощности спектра колебаний ритма сердца (ТР) на 41% (р < 0,05), мощности высокочастотных колебаний (HF) — на 73% (р < 0,05), росло влияние центрального механизма со снижением амплитуды моды (АМо) на 71% (р < 0,05), индекса напряжения (ИН) — на 175% (р < 0,05). Воздействие НИЛИ способствовало повышению эффективности доставки кислорода в отдельные области коры больших полушарий с ростом уровня постоянных потенциалов (УПП). Благодаря воздействию НИЛИ на 3,32% (p > 0,05) выросла скорость «прохождения» спортсменками дистанции 2000 м. Обнаруженные эффекты применения НИЛИ позволяют расширить спектр физиотерапевтических средств, способствующих повышению специальной физической работоспособности спортсменов и ускорению восстановления.

Bu araştırmanın amacı matematik öğrenme güçlüğü yaşayan ortaokul öğrencilerine uygulanan sayı konuşmaları uygulamalarının bu öğrencilerin sayı duyusu gelişimlerine olan etkisini incelemektir. Bu amaçla 2016-2017 eğitim öğretim yılı 2. döneminde bir il merkezindeki Rehberlik ve Araştırma Merkezi (RAM) tarafından özel öğrenme güçlüğü tanısı almış 15 5-8. sınıf öğrencisi ile çalışılmıştır. Araştırmanın deseni tek gruplu ön test son test yarı deneysel desen olup sayı konuşmaları uygulamaları 3 hafta boyunca devam etmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri Can (2017) tarafından geliştirilen "Sayı Duyusu Ölçeği (SDÖ)" ; Fidan (2013) tarafından geliştirilen "Matematik Başarı Testi (MBT)" ve De Vos' (1992) tarafından geliştirilip Olkun, Can ve Yeşilpınar (2013) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlama çalışması yapılan "Hesaplama Performans Testi (HPT)" aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan HPT öğrencilere uygulanacak olan MBT'nin sınıf düzeyini belirlemek; MBT öğrencilerin matematik öğrenme güçlüğü yaşayıp yaşamadıklarını tespit etmek ve SDÖ ise sayı konuşmaları uygulamalarının etkisini ortaya koymak amacıyla kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, sayı konuşmaları uygulamalarının matematik öğrenme güçlüğü yaşayan ortaokul öğrencilerinin sayı duyusu ölçeğinden aldıkları puanları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde etkilediği görülmüştür. Buna göre sayı konuşmaları uygulamaları matematik öğrenme güçlüğü yaşayan öğrencilerin öğretmenleri tarafından kullanılabilecek bir öğretim aracı olarak tavsiye edilebilir. Araştırma daha fazla öğrenci ile daha uzun süre, farklı eğitim kademelerinde yürütülerek matematikle ilgili diğer özelliklerin değişimi incelenebilir

İlköğretim Matematik Öğretmeni Adaylarının Sahip Oldukları Matematik Tarihi Bilgileri ile ilgili Değişen Algıları: Pedagojik Deneyimlerin Rolü
Authors: ULUSOY Fadime , GİRİT YILDIZ Dilek
Published: November 2019

Bu araştırma, ilköğretim matematik öğretmen adaylarının
pedagojik deneyimler içeren Matematik Tarihi dersi öncesinde ve sonrasında
matematik tarihi bilmenin gerekliliği konusunda ve kendi sahip oldukları
matematik tarihi bilgileriyle ilgili algılarının neler olduğunu ve bu algılarda
nasıl değişimler yaşandığını keşfetmeyi amaçlamıştır. Araştırma, ilköğretim
matematik öğretmenliği programının son sınıfında öğrenim gören 32 öğretmen
adayı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada veriler, ders öncesi ve ders sonrası
açık uçlu sorulara verilen yazılı cevaplar, öğretmen adaylarının hazırladıkları
ders planları, araştırmacı notları ve derslerde yapılan sınıf tartışmaları
aracılığıyla elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları, öğretmen adaylarının bir
matematik öğretmenin (i) genel kültür ve saygınlık kazanmak, (ii) konu alan
bilgilerini güçlendirmek, (iii) öğretim sürecini güçlendirmek ve (iv) öğrencileri
matematiğe karşı duyuşsal olarak desteklemek için matematik tarihi bilmeleri
gerektiği düşüncelerine sahip olduklarını göstermiştir. Pedagojik deneyimler
içeren Matematik Tarihi dersi sonrasında bu düşüncelerdeki eğilimlerde ders
öncesine göre belli değişimlerin olduğu görülmüştür. Diğer taraftan, araştırma
sonuçları öğretmen adaylarının ders öncesinde kendi matematik tarihi
bilgilerini çoğunlukla yüzeysel ve orta derece olarak tanıladıklarını
göstermiştir. Ders sonrasında kendi bilgileriyle ilgili algılarında dört temel
değişim ortaya çıkmıştır: (i) yüzeyselden-orta dereceye; (ii) orta
dereceden-orta dereceye; (iii) orta dereceden-derine ve (iv) derinden-orta
dereceye olarak gruplandırılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, öğretmen adaylarının
Matematik Tarihi ile ilgili pedagojik deneyimler (ör. ders kitaplarında
matematik tarihinin analizi, matematik tarihi içerikli ders planı
tasarlama)  yaşadıkça matematik tarihini
sadece bir genel kültür bileşeni olarak görmek yerine derslerinde nasıl
kullanabilecekleriyle ilgilendiklerini göstermiştir. Bu nedenle, öğretmen
adayları hangi matematik konusunda matematik tarihinin nasıl kullanılacağının
ciddi bir bilgi birikimi ve tecrübe gerektirdiğini fark etmiş ve ders öncesinde
matematik tarihi bilgileriyle ilgili sahip oldukları algıları kritik ederek
değiştirmişlerdir.

Se analizan las políticas implementadas para el sector de ciencia y tecnologíadurante el gobierno del Presidente Mauricio Macri, en el contexto del modelo de desarrolloneoliberal que ha impulsado su gestión, centrado en la exportación de materias primas sinelaborar y en la valorización financiera. Tal modelo reformuló en los hechos la evolucióndel sector, paralizando proyectos en curso en áreas como defensa, satelital y nuclear,suspendiendo todo intento de impulsar el desarrollo de la industria tecnológica nacionaldesde el Estado. Se presentan datos e indicadores que dan cuenta de la magnitud de losrecortes realizados a la inversión estatal en CyT, la pérdida del salario real de losprofesionales del sector y el deterioro en las condiciones de trabajo en las actividades deI+D, en un marco general de ajuste y achicamiento del Estado.
Políticas orientadas a misiones: ¿son posibles en la Argentina?
Authors: Erica Carrizo
Published: November 2019

En América Latina, a diferencia de los países centrales y los de industrialización reciente, las políticas de ciencia y tecnología se basaron históricamente en la oferta de conocimientos desde el sector académico. Esta orientación alimentó la promoción sistémica de políticas horizontales: formación de recursos humanos calificados, creación de infraestructura CyT y financiamiento de proyectos de I+D. Esta tendencia limitó la definición e implementación de políticas focalizadas por parte del Estado. En particular, de políticas orientadas a misiones –mission oriented–, caracterizadas por impulsar proyectos tecnológicos estratégicos y vincular actores públicos y privados para el desarrollo de sectores, tecnologías y mercados según objetivos estratégicos propios. En este artículo, abordaremos los procesos que explican esta problemática regional, así como las particularidades de dos casos de políticas orientadas a misiones (nuclear y satelital), desarrolladas en el contexto nacional en los últimos años.
