Posteriormente se aplicó el análisis factorial confirmatorio, el cual demostró que el instrumento posee validez convergente y discriminante y, en consecuencia, puede ser utilizado en la academia para futuras investigaciones sobre la gestión de proyectos, y en lo profesional para evaluar el desempeño de proyectos ecuatorianos, contemplando la limitación de que el porcentaje de participación de proyectos de otros países de Latinoamérica en la muestra de estudio fue del 22 %.

Abstract: This research aims to adapt and validate the Project Implementation Profile (PIP) instrument for evaluating projects carried out in Latin America. Four hundred twenty professionals participated as leaders or team members in projects completed in 2020-2021. As the instrument was developed in English, a translation and retranslation procedure was used, in which professional and academic experts in project management participated, along with certified translators, for its adaptation to the Spanish-speaking population in Latin America. For the exploratory factor analysis, the unweighted least squares extraction method was selected, obtaining four critical success factors: Communication with the client, monitoring and planning, senior management, and technical capabilities, with Cronbach Alpha coefficients between .876 and 933. Subsequently, confirmatory factor analysis was applied, demonstrating that the instrument has convergent and discriminant validity and, consequently, can be used in academia for future research on project management and professionally to evaluate the performance of Ecuadorian projects, considering the limitation that the percentage of participation of projects from other Latin American countries in the study sample was 22%.

Abstract: Facing a scenario of unavoidable changes and a society that promotes the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), the hybrid modality seeks to optimize traditional and virtual education. Therefore, the objective of the research was to evaluate the effectiveness of hybrid classes for the development of competencies in the subject of Quality Control in agro-industrial engineering students at a public university in Peru. Seventeen students enrolled in the 2022-I academic semester participated, who attended the hybrid classes through rotating and simultaneous classes, using synchronous technology (videoconference system with Zoom Rooms software) and asynchronous technology (Microsoft Teams). The instrument used was a 40-question Pedagogical Test of the Quality Control subject, divided into four dimensions that assess capabilities and was applied before and after the study. The results showed noticeable values, reaching learning levels of expected (47.1%), process (41.2%), expected (35.3%) and outstanding (47.1%) for the first, second, third and fourth ability, respectively. It is concluded that the hybrid classes were effective for the development of subject competencies with a p<0.05, which evidenced a significant difference between pretest and posttest. Likewise, 35.3% of students were in process and expected learning levels and 11.8% remained in beginning learning levels. Thus, there is a need for improvement in ICT access to continue strengthening the application of the hybrid modality.

Resumen En los últimos años, festivales y eventos como Hello Wood y Open House se instalaron entre estudiantes de arquitectura y diseño como prácticas complementarias a la formación académica. Enmarcados en un ámbito informal, la iniciativa de ambos eventos implica experimentar para apropiar aquellas vivencias tangibles, así como también conocer los materiales y la espacialidad, los procesos constructivos y las experiencias compartidas por el contacto con estudios jóvenes y/o consagrados, artistas y diseñadores, conformando una comunidad. Estos dispositivos nos recuerdan a los sistemas pedagógicos implementados por los maestros del Movimiento Moderno. Frank Lloyd Wright en Taliesin o Walter Gropius en Bauhaus proponían aprender en la práctica, conociendo las cualidades constructivas y capacidades estéticas de cada material, previo a trabajar la configuración espacial. La comunidad era la clave para (re)pensar los modos de producción. Notamos que se (re)toman y (re)producen rastros del espíritu moderno bajo una imagen renovadora, evidenciando una brecha entre la academia y los procesos productivos actuales que requiere volver a conectar al estudiante con la práctica. El viaje será un instrumento indispensable para explorar y desafiar los límites de lo conocido. Lo desconocido y el encuentro con el otro producirán las transformaciones y (re)construcciones del modo de mirar.

Abstract In recent years, festivals, and events such as Hello Wood and Open House have become complementary practices to academic training among architecture and design students. Framed in an informal environment, the proposal of both events is not only to experience and get hold of tangible feelings but also to find out materials, spatiality, construction processes. They also enable to share experiences with young and/or renowned studios, artists and designers that shape a community. This reminds us of the pedagogical systems implemented by the masters of the modern movement. Frank Lloyd Wright in Taliesin and Walter Gropius in Bauhaus proposed learning by means of practice to get acquainted with the constructive qualities and aesthetic capabilities of each material before working on the spatial configuration. The community was fundamental for (re)thinking the production modes. We note that traces of the modern spirit are resumed and (re)produced through a renewing image, which, in turn, reveals a gap between the academy and the current productive processes that requires the reconnection of the student with the practice. The journey will be an indispensable instrument to explore and challenge the limits of the already known. The unknown and the encounter with the other will produce transformations and (re)constructions of the way of looking.

Abstract The tradition of digital writing instructional practices is nearly 50 years old in the US (Handa, 2004). Sometimes, students fully online digital writing courses may fail to engage with and finish the course because they do not feel competent in handling the technologies in the academic context; thus, it is important to find out what equitable practices and what factors influence student success in these courses. Therefore, this study aims to examine digital writing assignments requested in a writing course, with the goal of demonstrating an inclusive and equitable practice: the Labor-based grading contract, in a way that promotes equal and fair grades. This practice is proposed as a solution to the shortcomings detected, since it has been observed that students inexperienced in pre-college education in the delivery of online writing assignments persist in their difficulties with technological educational platforms in college. The creation of a contract between the teacher and the students -at first-, fosters knowledge, motivation, involvement, or engagement with the task; thus, digital writing assignments go from being an unattainable goal to being a feasible task to engage in. Also, the cooperative creation of this online writing with an easy-to-use platform (Eli Peer Review) stimulates them to persist in the following tasks, as they have already reflected on them and have already found out among their peers what they consist of and how to deal with such tasks. In our research we present a case study of a course based on online writing instruction. Therefore, this study aims to examine a particular course in the United States in which multimedia writing assignments and labor-based grading allowed for deep student engagement and success (Dickson,1974; Inoue, 2019). The data comes from the use of mixed methods that combine qualitative information collected through document analysis (teacher materials: syllabi, guidelines, instructions; student materials: personal research, blog entries, and final letter); classroom observation field diaries and the semi-structured teacher interview, with the quantitative methods of a student survey. The results show that there is a high degree of alignment between the course and the best practices of online instruction, and that the nature of the assignments and the Labor-based Grading Contract (Dickson,1974, Inoue, 2019) appear to play key roles in student engagement and success in the course. Likewise, the most highlighted aspect by the students has been the emotional factor, since the tasks have allowed them to get involved and enjoy writing in the digital support. The systematic observation of this writing course aims to deeply understand its provenance, objectives, taxonomy and functionality, with the final purpose of highlighting the capabilities of this methodology in order to offer it as a model in other contexts to promote a fairer and more equitable education.

Resumen El propósito de este estudio de caso es explorar la eficacia de un curso de escritura autorregulador enriquecido con tecnología que emplea contratos de calificación basados en el trabajo con el objeto de desarrollar calificaciones más justas y equitativas. Específicamente, el estudio examina el nivel de eficacia de los materiales docentes a partir de categorías obtenidas de los National Technology Standards. También se valora su eficacia con las percepciones del docente, mediante una entrevista semiestructurada. Por último, mediante un cuestionario y escritos de estudiantes sobre sus percepciones del curso. Los resultados son positivos en cuanto a la adecuación del diseño del curso a los criterios de eficacia. Respecto de las percepciones del docente destaca su implicación con el sistema de calificación para el compromiso de los estudiantes. En cuanto a los estudiantes, por encima de este factor procesual, destacan los aspectos emocionales, por lo que podemos proponer esta práctica como modelo para otros contextos.

Abstract In this paper, we present the results of a preliminary study on the evolution of self-efficacy and self-awareness among scientific translation students throughout one semester using data collected for three academic years. The analysis was based on the two components of self-efficacy: the perception that students have of their own capabilities to perform specific activities related to scientific and technical translation and their actual capabilities to perform those activities. To assess the self-efficacy beliefs of students, we analyzed the evolution of the self-perception of students based on the results of two questionnaires, an initial assessment questionnaire on their translation habits and problems, and a final psychometric questionnaire on the perceived usefulness of the pedagogical method used and on their self-efficacy beliefs. To assess the actual capabilities of students, we analyzed the evolution of the number of errors in each translation assignment and of the academic scores of students. The comparative analysis of the diagnostic assessment questionnaire and the diagnostic assessment translation assignment revealed low self-awareness at the beginning of the semester, as evidenced by a poor correspondence between students’ perceptions and performance. In contrast, a high degree of correspondence was found between self-efficacy beliefs and academic performance at the end of the semester, which suggests that the implemented method helped students develop realistic self-efficacy beliefs. paper selfefficacy self efficacy selfawareness awareness years selfperception questionnaires problems contrast

BACKGROUND: Heath care students need to be practice-ready at qualification. Increased interest in and drive towards more collaborative practice necessitate consideration of teaching and learning factors unique to learning settings, to plan a tailored interprofessional education and collaborative practice curriculum, based on empirical findingsMETHOD: The Joanna Briggs Institute's scoping review methodology guided this study. Eight online databases were searched, with 72 articles included for full review. Charted data, analysed quantitatively, included year, context, study design and population. The four-dimensional curriculum framework model, consisting of future health care needs, interprofessional competencies, methods of teaching and institutional support, directed the deductive analysisRESULTS: Interprofessional education is best presented as a tailored curriculum, i.e. fitting the specific institution's needs, based on formal rather than a voluntary participation and presented longitudinally. Buy-in from institutional management assists in overcoming barriers related to resourcing and staff participationCONCLUSION: Successful interprofessional education and collaborative practice curricula are dependent on an interplay of various factors such as specific professions involved, future healthcare needs of the country, expected capabilities and competencies of graduates, content and teaching methods, and available resources. Facilitators, as well as policymakers of academic and clinical institutions, could benefit from the synthesized evidence

Abstract: Both academic research and industry reports show how social networks have penetrated at a fast pace in Latin America. From the challenge of making specialized knowledge accessible to society, this phenomenon is an opportunity to learn how they are being used for scientific journalists working in specialized institutions. This study focuses on the Chilean context, paying special attention to Instagram. Due to its particularities and visual characteristics, this social network is replacing other applications such as Twitter and Facebook as a tool for scientific communication. The perception of the journalists working in scientific institutions and centers and their relationship with Instagram is hereby revealed, and its further analysis is developed based on a questionnaire with open and closed questions, which represents a contribution to the study on the journalistic use of social media. According to the results, 70% of those consulted identify Instagram as the most frequently used application for scientific dissemination on social media, due to its dynamism and visual capabilities to deliver messages. However, although there is a positive assessment of the platform and its importance as a great ally for the dissemination process, there is also a need to focus the messages and apply appropriate graphic criteria for greater effectiveness on posts and more engagement with the audiences.

Abstract The development of electrochemical sensors capable of quantifying either chemical, biological, or environmental parameters of interest endorses both the increased academic and educational relevance of electrochemistry. As a result, understanding quantitative electrochemical sensing characterization and performance analysis through analytical figures of merit stands as a curricular requirement from both a theoretical and methodological standpoint as it involves the development of several skills which are highly transferable into further electrochemical education and professional practices. On the other hand, due to popular fields of applications such as non-invasive wearable electrochemical sensors for monitoring electrolytes in sweat on high-performance athletes, students are well-aware of its potential, increasing their willingness to partake in electrochemical activities. Addressing the aforementioned, the experience described herein is divided into two main sections. Firstly, a theoretical introduction regarding electrochemical sensors and electrochemical performance validation techniques known as electroanalytical figures of merit are proposed. Secondly, a hands-on experience using a H2O2 sensitive ferrite powder working electrode is carried out by performing voltammetric and chronoamperometric techniques so that students develop a basic understanding of the redox processes occurring at the working electrode surface and obtain analytical performance parameters that allow conclusions to be drawn regarding the ferrite powder sensing capabilities towards H2O2 reduction. As for implementation requirements, the proposed four-hour laboratory protocol is suitable for graduate/upper-level undergraduate physical or analytical chemistry courses and, due to its length, is recommended to be conducted in groups of two to three students.

Resumen El desarrollo de sensores electroquímicos capaces de cuantificar parámetros químicos, biológicos o ambientales de interés avala la creciente relevancia académica y educativa de la electroquímica. Como resultado, comprender la caracterización cuantitativa de un sensor electroquímico y el análisis de su desempeño a través de las cifras analíticas de mérito constituye un requisito curricular tanto desde un punto de vista teórico como metodológico, ya que implica el desarrollo de múltiples habilidades que son altamente transferibles a futuras prácticas electroquímicas educativas y profesionales. Por otro lado, debido a su implementación en campos de aplicación populares, por ejemplo, a través de sensores electroquímicos portátiles no invasivos para monitorear los electrolitos en el sudor en atletas de alto rendimiento, los estudiantes son conscientes de su potencial, incrementando su predisposición a participar en experiencias electroquímicas educativas. Tomando en consideración lo anteriormente expuesto, la experiencia aquí descrita se divide en dos apartados principales. En primer lugar, se propone una introducción teórica sobre los sensores electroquímicos y sus correspondientes técnicas de validación de rendimiento conocidas como cifras de mérito electroanalíticas. En segundo lugar, se presenta el diseño de una secuencia práctica utilizando un electrodo de trabajo sensible al H2O2 tras su modificación con un polvo de ferrita comercial. El mismo permitirá llevar adelante técnicas voltamperométricas y cronoamperométricas para que los estudiantes desarrollen una comprensión básica de los procesos redox que ocurren en la superficie del electrodo de trabajo y obtengan parámetros de rendimiento analítico de la ferrita hacia la reducción de H2O2. En cuanto a los requisitos de implementación, el protocolo de laboratorio de cuatro horas propuesto es adecuado para cursos de posgrado o cursos de grado avanzados en fisicoquímica o química analítica y, dada su extensión, se recomienda que sea llevado a cabo en grupos de dos a tres estudiantes.

Durante o desenvolvimento dessas oportunidades, cada sujeito do ecossistema do empreendedorismo de retorno de cidade natal participou de diferentes formas e com diferentes ênfases. Este texto ajuda a enriquecer a pesquisa de integração da teoria do empreendedorismo de retorno de cidade natal e da teoria do ecossistema de inovação, e além disso fornece uma referência para realizar a revitalização rural e promover o desenvolvimento econômico regional.

ABSTRACT: With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, returning-home entrepreneurship has received increasing attention from social and academic circles. This paper adopted the method of descriptive statistics to analyze the current situation, and the process by which entrepreneurs in the returning-home entrepreneurship ecosystem participate in the development of entrepreneurial opportunities from two dimensions: resource acquisition and institutional support. This research adopted the method of social network analysis to explore the mechanism of opportunity development of each subject of the returning-home entrepreneurship ecosystem. The results showed that during the opportunity development of returning-home entrepreneurship, all the subjects in the returning-home entrepreneurship ecosystem participated with their own resources and capabilities and jointly promoted the development of opportunities. During the development of these opportunities, each subject in the returning-home entrepreneurship ecosystem participated in different ways and with different emphases. This paper enriched the integration research of returning-home entrepreneurship theory and innovation ecosystem theory, and provided a reference for realizing rural revitalization and promoting regional economic development.
