Los doce capítulos reunidos en la presente obra titulada “Educación a Distancia y TIC” son producto de una serie de aportes desarrolladas por profesores investigadores de instituciones educativas del noreste de la república mexicana que buscan respuestas en los temas de la educación a distancia y el uso de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) en la educación. Los aportes abordados por los veintisiete autores son: Los retos de la universidad latinoamericana ante las TIC, competencias en TIC, alternativas para combatir la brecha digital, la trasformación necesaria en la educación, el perfil del estudiante a distancia, el uso de redes sociales, casos de implem...
En la actualidad, los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje se componen cada vez más del trinomio: educación-innovación-TIC, lo que ha implicado grandes retos, pero también extraordinarias oportunidades para las personas que en el proceso intervienen, como los profesores, estudiantes, autoridades institucionales, gobiernos, organismos nacionales e internacionales y demás involucrados. Por lo anterior, esta obra recopila estudios, aportes y reflexiones de investigadores, en su mayoría profesores de instituciones de educación media superior y superior, sobre la incorporación de diferentes tecnologías en los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje, desde enfoques innovadores que buscan enrique...
Cool season grain legumes including pea, faba bean, lentil, chickpea, and grass pea are extensively grown in many parts of the world. They are a primary source of proteins in human diet. This volume deals with the most recent advances in genetics, genomics, and breeding of these crops. The "state of the art" for the individual crops differs; howeve
Esta amplia, extensa, plural y heterogénea recopilación reúne las experiencias vertidas en el XXIV Congreso Internacional EDUTEC cuyo tema principal consistió en indagar la relación entre educación y tecnología y en gran impacto que sobre ella produjo la situación sanitaria de los últimos años. Con intervenciones de profesionales de todo el mundo, esta publicación contribuye a la difusión de estrategias para solucionar las problemáticas surgidas a nivel global por el impacto de la pandemia.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
Autoimmune diseases are conditions where the immune system attacks the body organs instead of foreign invaders. This book deals with the various mechanisms by which infectious agents can trigger autoimmunity such as molecular mimicry and polyclonal activation. An overview is given with regard to bacteria, viruses, and parasites associated with autoimmunity, and a summary is given on classical autoimmune diseases and the infecting agents that can induce them. - Includes completely updated and new chapters - Brings the reader up to date and allows easy access to individual topics in one place - Identifies infectious agents as pathogenic or protective in many autoimmune diseases
Plant-Microbe Interactions, Volume 2 Volume 1 of this series has made its appearance and dealt forcefully with impor tant current topics in the field of plant-microbe interactions. We believe that the quality of those chapters was high and should serve as a focal point for the state of the art as well as an enduring reference. Volume 2 builds upon these accom plishments. Chapter 1 discusses the fascinating lipo-chitin signal molecules from Rhizo bium, aspects regarding their biosynthesis, and the basis for host specificity. These molecules are a cardinal example of how microorganisms influence plant development and stimulate speculation that they have identified a previously un known aspect of plant hormone activity. Chapter 2 continues the discussion of Rhizobium by considering the trafficking of carbon and nitrogen in nodules. Al though the ostensible advantage of nodules to plants is the fixation of atmos pheric nitrogen, the actual process involved in supplying reduced nitrogen to the plant host is complex.
From a young Palestinian writer comes this compelling look at the Israel/Palestine conflict, from both the perspective of an Israeli soldier in 1949 as well as that of a young Palestinian woman.
This book explores comorbidity in patients with rheumatic diseases and details both care and treatment options in standard clinical practice. Patients with rheumatic diseases are clinically complex, and the interplay of their disease activity with associated conditions may lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Recently there have been major advances in the management of rheumatic diseases, however, without addressing the potential comorbid conditions, including cardiovascular disease; pulmonary disease; and depression; outcomes remain poor. With its 19 chapters, covering the management of major rheumatic diseases (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus , and o...
