Recurriendo a marcos conceptuales de la práctica arquitectónica, el artículo reflexiona sobre las premisas y condiciones alrededor de las cuales se desarrolla la labor educativa en este ámbito disciplinar. Sostiene que el carácter creativo y proyectivo de la Arquitectura que impone, a estudiantes y profesionales arquitectos, asumir una actitud crítica frente al saber constituido que se imparte en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, no trasciende al dominio educativo para transformarlo.

The author, resorting to conceptual frames of architectonical practice, deals with premises and conditions of the educative tasks in this disciplinary fleld. She sustains that the creative and projective feature of Architecture that should impose to students and professionals of this fleld a critical approach to the constituted knowledge of the teaching-learning process, does not transcend to the educative domain in order to transform it.

The inhibited radical polymerization of vinyl acetate initiated by 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile was studied in the presence of some furan derivatives bearing a double bond on the side group. The modelling of such systems has permitted to estimate the values of the kinetic parameters for these inhibitors. A sensitivity analysis was performed to obtain a better insight into the mechanism; it appears that macroradical degradative transfer reaction to furan compounds is the most important reaction in comparison with propagation or primary radical degradative transfer.

Some furan compounds bearing a double bond in the side group have been examined as inhibitors of the radical polymerization of vinyl acetate initiated by AIBN in ethyl acetate at 60 ºC. The inhibition effect was found to follow the order: furfurylidenacetone > furylacrolein > furanacrylic acid > furylacrylmorpholinamide as a consequence of the greater stabilization of the radical formed. The site of radical attack can be considered either as the C-5 position of the furan ring or as the double bond of the side group. The compounds taken as models such as 5-methylfuranacrylic acid and furfurylidenbutanal indicate that both positions can participate in the inhibitory process.
