During the covid-19 pandemic, distance education witnessed a surge in credibility, popularity, and advantages; however, this change disproportionately impacted vulnerable groups: the low-income population, the disabled, indigenous groups and children of migrants. While research in basic education has been conducted, information regarding online learning experiences of female university students is limited, especially in relation to gender. Therefore, the present study surveyed 1 206 female undergraduate students from rural and urban contexts to analyze their experiences in distance classes during confinement. Significant differences were found according to context, with women from urban settings valuing the design of assignments and strategies, and instructional design, while those from rural contexts demanded greater attention from their tutors. In both cases, participants lacked prior experience with online courses and suitable learning environments. In conclusion, these disparities warrant further investigation and targeted measures to bridge the gender gap in distance education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Inclusive pedagogies belong to the diversity agenda in higher education and so their teaching methodologies should be tested to ensure the effective training of students in democratic and inclusive citizenship competencies, such as moral competence. Moral-dilemma based methods have proven to be effective in learning about morals in specific programmes, but there is still no evidence for their cross-cutting application in regular courses. These methods could also be enriched by strategies aimed at learning competences that have been identified as predictive factors in theories of moral judgement and development, such as empathy. The current study examines the effects of a 10-hour teaching intervention on learning moral competence using a version of the Konstanz Method of Dilemma Discussion (KMDD), either applied in isolation or using a mixed strategy of dilemma discussion and narrative persuasion activities, this last method with the aim of verifying the contribution of empathy to moral learning. The hypotheses regarding the two methodological approaches were tested using a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design with a control group in the ecological context of the first semester of teacher training. Data were collected using the Moral Competence Test and were analysed with linear mixed models. The results did not support the expected empathy-induced moral learning. However, significant progression in moral competence when using KMDD is shown. The discussion considers the disassociation between empathy/altruism and moral competence in order to interpret the ineffectiveness of the mixed strategy. The need to apply pedagogies with a more experiential focus is suggested in order to foster moral learning by means of activities in community diversity environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The future of knowledge organizations will depend on their ability to innovate and develop human talent and organizational architecture that facilitates processes; however, their design, based on high performance teams as an innovative alternative to increase their effectiveness, has not yet been sufficiently approached at the methodological level. Objective: To develop a methodology for the design of organizational architectures based on highperformance teams. Materials and Methods: The research was based on a mixed approach, with the use of qualitative and quantitative methods and techniques, including the experts' assessment. It is structured in four moments: the study of the theoretical and methodological foundations to implement high performance teams, the determination of factors facilitators, the construction of a methodological proposal and finally its validation through experts' assessment, user satisfaction and analysis compared with other methodological proposals consulted in the reviewed bibliography. Results and Discussion: A methodology is provided for the design of organizational architecture based on highperformance teams, viable for its application in knowledge organizations, scientifically argued, and validated through experts' assessment, comparative analysis and user criteria. Conclusions: The developed methodology contributes to the enrichment of the theoretical and methodological foundations of organizational architecture design and, in particular, to the implementation of high-performance teams within their framework.

Education in Chile has undergone great changes since 2019 due to the social outbreak and the COVID-19 pandemic, giving emergency distance education opportunities to establish itself as the new format by which students participate in the different educational activities. that contemplates the educational project. Faced with this situation, an exploratory-descriptive study was carried out that sought to know the perceptions of occupational therapy students who start their professional practices, through unstructured interviews that respected the bioethical aspects of confidentiality, the data collected in axial matrices were analyzed, categorizing them into emerging subcategories. Obtaining six categories related to the abilities of the students to face the practices, their expectations, difficulties, development, and implications when participating in the new student challenge. Concluding a little significant learning and several gaps in distance training, especially in the practical application of intervention strategies in the physical area. Likewise, face-to-face professional practice is described as essential for the achievement of the student’s social skills and the establishment of theoretical knowledge. In addition, it is a unique instance for learning multidisciplinary work and differentiating roles with professionals from other disciplinary areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La tasa social de descuento estándar aplicada por instituciones de planificación y organismos multilaterales (12%) en la evaluación de proyectos públicos es un parámetro administrativo, constante, sin respaldo en su determinación y que no reconoce los cambios de las preferencias sociales en el tiempo. En este trabajo presentamos una alternativa de determinación de la tasa social de descuento basada en el modelo de estimación gamma (Weitzman, 2001), en el contexto de países en desarrollo, que posee tres ventajas: i) incorpora el descuento decreciente; ii) es eficiente en relación con el costo, por cuanto resume las diversas opiniones de expertos, y iii) se ajusta a los cambios en las preferencias de corto y largo plazo. En nuestras estimaciones se obtienen niveles inferiores a la tasa nominal estándar, para distintos períodos de tiempo, que fluctúan entre un 2%, para horizontes de evaluación superiores a 51 años, y un 11%, para el corto plazo (de 0 a 5 años).

Table grapes (Vitis vinifera) are one of the crops of highest economic and social relevance in Sonora, Mexico. Due to the scant precipitation and high evaporative demand of the zone, it is a crop with a high water requirement. Therefore, its production depends on the application of irrigation, and it is important to have precise and extensive estimation of the crop evapotranspiration (ETC) to improve efficiency of irrigation in the short term. This research was carried out during 2018 and 2019 with the objective of developing and evaluating a model between the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) calculated with Sentinel-2 images, and the crop coefficient (KC) determined with a covariance turbulence flux system (Eddy Covariance, EC) as an option for estimating the ETC of a vineyard of table grapes in Costa de Hermosillo, Sonora. Using NDVI and KC data from 2018 records, a simple regression model was constructed with the start forced to the origin at the null coordinates (KCNDVI = 0.9467 NDVI; R2 = 0.74) as a base for ETC estimation. When the regression model was validated with daily 2019 data, an R2 of 0.76 was obtained along with a CME of 0.11 by relating KC vs. KCNDVI. Whereas by relating ETC vs. estimated ETC, an R2 of 0.92 was found, and a CME of 0.67 mm d-1. The results indicated that the ETC can be estimated with adequate precision and in an opportune manner with the proposed model. However, it was found that the model may underestimate ETC during the period of maximum crop development due to NDVI saturation. However, in the winter when the values of NDVI depend on the soil structural characteristics and on the remains of winter pruning, ETC tends to be overestimated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Diego Aramburo (Bolivia) y Rodrigo García (Argentina/España) reconstruyen con palabras casi inconexas la memoria violenta de un pasado marcado por el militarismo en sus países y de esta forma se exponen el cuerpo olvidado de las víctimas de estos periodos históricos. El objetivo fundamental se basa en revisar la relación de escritura entre las palabras que emplean los dos dramaturgos para marcar la memoria y el olvido del cuerpo dentro de un proceso violento. La metodología consiste en realizar una comparación de sus producciones teatrales donde resalta la idea de la palabra que expone el cuerpo olvidado, desde la memoria que emerge en imágenes violentas, lo que nos lleva develar la repetitiva estructura poética caracterizada por la exacerbación del discurso. Podemos decir que Diego Aramburo y Rodrigo García buscan desde sus propuestas dramatúrgicas, la exposición de una memoria silenciada en sus contextos culturales, por medio de una estética caracterizada por palabras agresivas, polifónicas y vacías como representación de un pasado reciente.
