This book was released on 2012 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objetivo de este libro, cuyo origen es el ciclo de conferencias que la doctora Monereo impartió en la Fundación BBVA en marzo de 2012, es recoger el conocimiento científico sobre la obesidad, sus causas y consecuencias, y las soluciones para erradicarla. Para ello, analiza la situación partiendo de su carácter epidémico en el mundo y su relación con los cambios medioambientales ocurridos en los últimos años. Asimismo, revisa aspectos médicos y sociales de las causas que la producen desde el punto de vista de la genética, la nutrición o la falta de actividad física, así como sus consecuencias sobre la salud física y mental. Por último, pensando en la prevención y las soluciones, distingue entre métodos sustentados sobre bases científicas de aquellos otros que, aun con visos aparentes de efectividad, no están probados científicamente.

Many initiatives as a result have been developed to implement this new form of education. MOOC Courses and the Future of Higher Education presents the latest research theories and current examples of MOOC courses practices in Higher Education.

Download or read book The Politics of Clientelism written by John Martz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Latin America the state is the prime regulator, coordinator, and pace-setter of the entire national system, the apex of the pyramid from which patronage, wealth, power, and programs flow. The state bears responsibility for the realization of civic needs, providing goods and services to each citizen. Doing so requires the exercise and maintenance of social and political control. It is John Martz's contention that clientelism underlines the fundamental character of Latin American social and political life. As the modernizing bureaucratic state has developed in Latin America, there has been a concurrent shifting away from clientelistic relationships. Yet in one form or another, political clientelism still remains central.Clientelism occurs when large numbers of low-status individuals, such as those in the slums of rural and underdeveloped areas, are protected by a powerful patron who defends their interests in return for deference or material reward. In Colombia the rural patron has become a member of the higher clientelistic system as well; he is dependent on a patron who operates at the national level. This enables urban elites to mobilize low-status clients for such acts as mass demonstrations of political loyalty to the regime. Thus, traditional clientelism has been modified through the process of modernization.Part One of The Politics of Clientelism examines Colombian politics, focusing on the incarnation and traditional forms of clientelism. Part Two explores the policies of Colombian governance, from the administrations of Lleras Camargo through Julio Cesar Turbay Ayala. Part Three discusses the modernization and restructuring of Colombia in recent decades under Belisario Betancur, Virgilio Barco, and Cesar Gaviria.As the modernizing bureaucratic state has unfolded, there has been a similar shift in many clientelistic relationships. Martz argues that, whether corporate clientelism remains or more democratic organization develo"

Download or read book Historia de la Comunicación Social del Ecuador: prensa, radio, televisión y cibermedios (1792-2013) written by María Luján González Portela and published by Dykinson. This book was released on 2021-07-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Quién fue el Gutemberg de Guayaquil? ¿Cómo nace el periodismo en Guayaquil y el litoral ecuatoriano? ¿Quiénes fueron los Murillo, Irisarri, Sixto Juan Bernal, José Antonio Campos, Pérez Pazmiño? ¿Qué papel jugó la prensa guayaquileña en la independencia, en las dictaduras del s. XIX y en las del s. XX? El periodismo obrero, la caricatura, prensa y radicalismo alfarista, prensa y mujer, revolución anti esclavista, etc… son temas que también vertebran el periodismo de Manabí, Esmeraldas, Los Ríos y Santo Domingo. Todo ello aborda el tercer volumen de la colección Historia de la Comunicación Social del Ecuador, en este caso dedicado a Guayas y a las cuatro provincias del litoral. El valor general de esta obra radica, por un lado, en la rigurosa recopilación de fuentes primarias (que ascienden, entre todas las provincias del país, a cerca de 10.000, entre publicaciones periódicas, radios, televisiones y cibermedios) y fuentes secundarias; por otro lado, en contar la historia de la comunicación en relación no solo con la afiliación política de las publicaciones, sino con los hechos históricos, económicos, sociales y culturales. De este modo, estudiar la historia de la comunicación de un país es estudiar a la vez su economía, su sociedad, su pensamiento, sus creencias, su cultura, y dejar que los mismos periódicos y medios “hablen” de su razón de ser, sus ideas de país y del mundo, su visión de futuro. Se enfatizan, además, elementos a menudo ignorados en la historiografía -que a veces ha incurrido en la catalogación- como los hombres, mujeres o familias enteras que estaban detrás de aquellos primeros periódicos. La intrahistoria periodística. También la historia de los impresores que los hicieron posible, de modo muy particular en la saga de los Murillo de Guayaquil. En el caso de las provincias de Guayas, Manabí, Esmeraldas, Los Ríos y Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, este libro nos descubre muchos aspectos desconocidos o inexplorados del rico periodismo allí gestado. Por todo ello, seguro que será del interés no solo de periodistas y comunicadores, coterráneos o no, sino de todos aquellos atraídos por las raíces y valores de los pueblos de la costa ecuatoriana, en los que la lucha por la independencia y la libertad define su aguerrida personalidad y, por ende, su combativo periodismo.

Download or read book New Methodological Approaches to Foreign Language Teaching written by Thomas H. Schmidt and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how the traditional academic disciplines of linguistics, translation, literature and cultural studies can contribute to, or be integrated into, the teaching of a foreign language by means of innovative methodologies, techniques and instruments. The book begins with a selection of essays on applied linguistics that share some significant findings in the context of second or foreign language acquisition. It then examines the ways in which linguistics, translation theory, literature and cultural studies are brought into the foreign language classroom not just as objects of study but also as vehicles for language-learning. By presenting studies on four main foreign languages, English, Spanish, French and German, the collection offers, to the foreign language profession, an opportunity for the sharing and comparison of strategies across languages at both the secondary and higher education level. The text is a valuable resource for language teachers with a more philologically-oriented background who would like to learn how to apply their research knowledge and experience to the design and implementation of new methodological approaches.
