¿Software para hacer pensar? Sobre la yuxtaposición de los sistemas simbólicos     

W. Patrick Dickson 《Cultura y Educación》2013,25(3-4):23-38

Una de las ideas más viejas y resistentes que forman parte del acervo habitual de los críticos de la cultura es la de la competitividad e incompatibilidad de los lenguajes y sistemas de símbolos (palabra-imagen, etc.). Lo que parece ser sólo una manifestación más dè la necesidad de zanjar la complejidad de las cosas con la toma de partido y la división entre buenos y malos. Pero las investigaciones de los últimos años sobre creatividad e imagen y ahora sobre el ordenador, nos obligan a revisar la idea y a adoptar una posición más constructiva y optimista. El artículo de Dickson subraya, además de ese aspecto constructivo de la multi-representación, otro valor esencial y no demasiado comentado del ordenador: su capacidad de interlocutor y maestro de ceremonias en ese diálogo constructivo de lengua a lengua. Alumnos y profesores parecen tener un papel más gratificante en esa nueva concepción educativa del ordenador.  相似文献   

Evaluation of 3D-printed molds for fabrication of non-planar microchannels     

Pravien Parthiban  Sindhu Vijayan  Patrick S. Doyle  Michinao Hashimoto 《Biomicrofluidics》2021,15(2)

Replica obtained from micromolds patterned by simple photolithography has features with uniform heights, and attainable microchannels are thus quasi-two-dimensional. Recent progress in three-dimensional (3D) printing has enabled facile desktop fabrication of molds to replicate microchannels with varying heights. We investigated the replica obtained from four common techniques of 3D printing—fused deposition modeling, selective laser sintering, photo-polymer inkjet printing (PJ), and stereolithography (SL)—for the suitability to form microchannels in terms of the surface roughness inherent to the mechanism of 3D printing. There have been limited quantitative studies that focused on the surface roughness of a 3D-printed mold with different methods of 3D printing. We discussed that the surface roughness of the molds affected (1) transparency of the replica and (2) delamination pressure of poly(dimethylsiloxane) replica bonded to flat glass substrates. Thereafter, we quantified the accuracy of replication from 3D-printed molds by comparing the dimensions of the replicated parts to the designed dimensions and tested the ability to fabricate closely spaced microchannels. This study suggested that molds printed by PJ and SL printers were suitable for replica molding to fabricate microchannels with varying heights. The insight from this study shall be useful to fabricate 3D microchannels with controlled 3D patterns of flows guided by the geometry of the microchannels.  相似文献   

The Influence of Body Mass Index on Self-report and Performance-based Measures of Physical Function in Adult Women     

Andrea L Hergenroeder  Jennifer S Brach  Amy D Otto  Patrick J Sparto  John M Jakicic 《Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy Journal》2011,22(3):11-20

Purpose: Little is known about limitations in physical function across BMI categories in middle aged women using both self-report and performance-based measures. Furthermore, the impact of BMI on the measurement of function has not been explored. The purpose of this study was to assess physical function in adult women across BMI categories using self-report and performance-based measures and determine the influence of BMI on the relationship between the measures. Methods: Fifty sedentary females (10 in each BMI category: normal weight, overweight, obese class I, II, and III) aged 51.2 ± 5.4 years participated. Assessments included demographics, past medical history, physical activity level, BMI, and self-report (Late Life Function and Disability Instrument) and performance-based measures of physical function (6-Minute Walk Test, timed chair rise, gait speed). Physical function was compared between BMI categories using analysis of variance. The influence of BMI on the relationship of self-report and performance-based measures was analyzed using linear regression. Results: Compared to those that were normal weight or overweight, individuals with obesity scored lower on the self-report measure of physical function (LLFDI) for capability in participating in life tasks and ability to perform discrete functional activities. On the performance-based measures, the individuals with obesity had slower gait speed compared to the normal and overweight weight groups. For the 6-Minute Walk Test and timed chair stands, individuals with obesity had poorer performance compared to those who were normal weight. Linear regression analyses revealed that BMI attenuated the relationship between the self-report and performance-based measures by approximately 50%. Conclusions: While those with severe obesity were most impaired, adult women with less severe obesity also demonstrated significant decrements in physical function.Key Words: obesity, physical function  相似文献   

Perception of coaching behaviors, coping, and achievement in a sport competition     

Nicolas M  Gaudreau P  Franche V 《运动与训练心理学杂志》2011,33(3):460-468

This study examined the relationship between perceived coaching behaviors, coping strategies during a sport competition, and sport achievement. A prospective design was used in which 80 athletes from individual sports completed measures of perceived coaching behaviors two days before a competition (Time 1) and measures of coping and sport achievement within three hours after a sport competition (Time 2). As expected, results of multiple regressions indicated that supportive coaching was a positive predictor of task-oriented coping and sport achievement whereas unsupportive coaching was a positive predictor of disengagement-oriented coping. Both types of coping were significantly associated with sport achievement. Task-oriented coping was a significant partial mediator in the relation between supportive coaching and sport achievement. This study, which contributes to both the coaching and coping literatures, highlights the role of supportive coaching behaviors in the initiation of effective stress management during sport competitions.  相似文献   

Cataloging Digitized Continuing Resources in a Shared Record Environment     

Myung-Ja K. Han  Jamie Carlstone  Patrick Harrington 《Cataloging & classification quarterly》2018,56(2-3):155-170

ABSTRACT

Cataloging digitized continuing resources is a challenging task for many libraries because of their complex cataloging rules and characteristics of format. As libraries provide their digitized content and catalog records in shared environments, like HathiTrust, and use them as an access point, libraries also have to work with holdings and item records created by each contributing institution's local practice. This article discusses common challenges imposed on libraries when creating and providing access to digitized continuing resources available in a shared environment, stresses the importance of having shareable holdings and items records, and suggests possible ways to work with those challenges.  相似文献   

Developing research capacity in health librarians: a review of the evidence   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

Rossall H  Boyes C  Montacute K  Doherty P 《Health information and libraries journal》2008,25(3):159-174

This critical review considers current issues of research capacity development in UK health care and the role of health librarianship in this context, placing particular focus on the use of research networks. There is a growing literature base recognising the need for librarians to engage more with research. The concepts of evidence-based health librarianship and clinical librarianship are discussed in the context of research and examples of existing good practice are reviewed. It is suggested that librarians should build on this through better consideration of evidence based methodologies, hierarchies of evidence, improvement of research skills, and a collective endeavour to identify research priorities. The importance research capacity is being given in the Department of Health R&D strategy and the use of networks in achieving this is discussed, and it is suggested that the utilisation of networks and collaboration should be undertaken and explored in more depth in developing research capacity in health librarianship. Areas where librarians currently engage with research and use networks and collaborative practices to contribute to the research base are reviewed. A co-ordinated approach to developing research capacity is called for and it is argued that the use of networks would be beneficial in assisting the process.  相似文献
