Download or read book La desilusi n de la imagen written by Víctor Silva Echeto and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2016-11 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La desilusión de la imagen. Arqueología, cuerpo(s) y mirada(s), plantea que las imágenes son vínculos entre distintas épocas y culturas, son síntomas e indicios que dejan huellas en el imaginario cultural. Son la elegíaca memoria como musa que deambula por los tiempos pero fuera de los tiempos (genealogía) o, en otros términos, las imágenes son Mnemosyne, es decir, la musa de todas las musas. Una arqueología de la imagen, implica considerar a la imagen desde la intermedialidad (entre-medios), los cuerpos y las miradas. Concebirla desde una crítica de la cultura en una contemporaneidad atravesada por la crisis. La pregunta ¿qué son las imágenes? que se formula desde la debilidad de cierta inocencia de la escritura, adquiere toda su dimensión desde el momento en que se confunde imagen con visualidad o imagen con medios audiovisuales, dejando por el camino todos los restos de imágenes que no son visuales. Aún más, ese debate se torna más complejo, cuando en su trasfondo está la «memoria» del holocausto (o de los holocaustos); las imágenes de la crisis política, económica y social o los miles de refugiados, en la paradigmática imagen de un niño muerto en la playa, deambulando por geografías europeas. La imagen es, en efecto, «nómada», viaja por territorios y culturas. Entonces, la inocencia de la pregunta se transforma en la imagen frágil de los que no tienen imagen. «La propuesta de Víctor Silva Echeto, es una de las mejor articuladas que conozco para pensar posibles alternativas a la situación de impasse a que parece abocarnos el mundo contemporáneo.» JENARO TALENS (escritor).
Download or read book El Car cter de Dios written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2018-04-02 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una encuesta de opinión en Gran Bretaña encontró que alrededor de las dos terceras partes de la población decía que “creía en Dios”. Para entender la importancia de este hecho, se deberían haber hecho preguntas adicionales: “¿en qué dios?” y “¿qué clase de dios?”. La primera era necesaria por la afluencia de inmigrantes con otras religiones. La segunda, porque aun entre cristianos las opiniones varían con relación al tipo de Dios que adoran. Mientras el autor estaba preparando una serie de sermones sobre el carácter multifacético de Dios, se le ocurrió la idea de vincular los atributos divinos con las letras del alfabeto, con la esperanza de que a sus oyentes les resultara más fácil recordarlos. Todo iba bien hasta la letra “X”. Queda al lector decidir si el enfoque fue satisfactorio.David Pawson tiene un ministerio de enseñanza mundial, especialmente para líderes de iglesia. Es conocido por muchos por programas de radio y televisión cristianos, además de ser autor de numerosos libros.
Download or read book Pedagogical Reflections On Learning Languages In Instructed Settings written by Maria Noelia Ruiz-Madrid and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedagogical Reflections on Learning Languages in Instructed Settings is intended to provide the latest pedagogical reflections that derive from research in a variety of key areas within the discipline of language learning. Thus, this volume aims at helping practising language teachers to update their teaching methodology.The book has fifteen chapters that are grouped around five sections. The first section of the book includes three chapters, which outline past approaches to language learning and highlight advances in our understanding of how languages are likely to be learned and taught. These three chapters provide the theoretical grounding for the rest of the volume by discussing outstanding concepts in the language learning field, namely: those of eclecticism (Chapter 1), communication (Chapter 2), and learner autonomy (Chapter 3). The second section of the book contains three chapters, which explore new directions in the field that have recently caught the attention of language researchers and practitioners, namely: the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in language learning (Chapter 4) the use of language corpora (Chapter 5) and finally, the use of the portfolio as a new assessment tool responding to new pedagogical demands (Chapter 6). The third section of the book consists of three chapters, which discuss the role of learners' individual variables such as affect (Chapter 7), learning styles (Chapter 8), and learning strategies (Chapter 9), crucial for understanding the nature of language learning. The fourth section of the book has five chapters and provides insights into understanding the nature of the four language skills, that is to say, listening (Chapter 10), speaking (Chapter 11), reading (Chapter 12) and writing (Chapter 13). This section also addresses the issue of assessment with the aim of increasing awareness on the duality teaching/assessing and its pedagogical dimension (Chapter 14). The book concludes with the fifth section, which includes a single chapter, that pulls all aforementioned topics together and highlights connections to a student-centred approach, which involves a reformulation of language teachers' teaching practices (Chapter 15).

Download or read book Item Banking Interactive Testing and Self Assessment written by Dieudonne A. Leclercq and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessment has long been recognized as a key feature in learning efficacy, especially through formative evaluation. Item banking, the storage and classification of test items, is an essential part of systematic assessment. This volume is based on a NATO Advanced Research Workshop held as part of the Special Programme on Advanced Educational Technology. The workshop brought together scholars from around the world to discuss and critically analyze the issues and problems associated with Subjective Probability Measurement (SPM) or the more generic research area called self-assessment. Recent advances in computer technology (expert systems, interactive video disks, and hypermedia) along with the developing sophistication of self-assessment scoring systems based on SPM made this conference particularly important and timely. The book is divided into three main parts: - The input: item banking and hypermedia - The process: subjective probabilities - The output: teaching and learning feedbacks. In summary, although SPM is a difficult theoretical concept for most educators to comprehend, the sophisticated nature of modern computer systems coupled with comprehensive formative and summative evaluation and self-assessment systems make SPM transparent to the user.
Download or read book Imagology written by Manfred Beller and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2007 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do national stereotypes emerge? To which extent are they determined by historical or ideological circumstances, or else by cultural, literary or discursive conventions? This first inclusive critical compendium on national characterizations and national (cultural or ethnic) stereotypes contains 120 articles by 73 contributors. Its three parts offer [1] a number of in-depth survey articles on ethnic and national images in European literatures and cultures over many centuries; [2] an encyclopedic survey of the stereotypes and characterizations traditionally ascribed to various ethnicities and nationalities; and [3] a conspectus of relevant concepts in various cultural fields and scholarly disciplines. The volume as a whole, as well as each of the articles, has extensive bibliographies for further critical reading. Imagologyis intended both for students and for senior scholars, facilitating not only a first acquaintance with the historical development, typology and poetics of national stereotypes, but also a deepening of our understanding and analytical perspective by interdisciplinary and comparative contextualization and extensive cross-referencing.
Download or read book Marcas sonrientes written by Valiente Alber, Sònia and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-10-28 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Por qué la publicidad televisiva ha empleado tan poco el humor en los últimos años? ¿Por qué la publicidad en España es tan gris? Estas cuestiones son el germen de una investigación que ha durado tres años (2012-2015) y que ha dado lugar a la tesis doctoral: «La conexión emocional generada por el humor como elemento de engagement en marcas consolidadas». Una investigación que ha demostrado que, en un contexto de crisis económica, fragmentación de las audiencias, saturación publicitaria y entorno multipantalla el humor continúa siendo una estrategia válida para generar engagement. Es más, si el anuncio gusta –hace que «la marca me caiga mejor»– se viralizará. Conexión emocional y prescripción orgánica. ¿Hay algo más que una marca pueda soñar?

In other situations, our remembrances are settled down like deep roots of strong trees.This book introduces also an experimental protocol, about conceptual neurons and how these nerve cells can identify emotional insights when they discriminate an iconic sample (a famous human image, well spread all over the world).Finally, analyzing the Working Memory Paradigm, this text describes new neuronal networks participating in neuronal processing like mental representations in predictive tasks associated to prefrontal cortex.
Download or read book Open City written by Almudena Ribot and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication inquires into the future of post-industrial cities framing and speculating on different industrial contexts: archipelagos (Eibar), fabrics (Cobo Calleja), assemblies (Detroit). Currently 55% of the world’s population lives in cities, predictably reaching 70% in 2050. Cities are organisms in continuous transformation: growth, change, but also shrinking or collapse. Open City explores and speculates from contemporaneity about the future of the post-industrial city, where industrial archipelagoes (S), frames (XL) and obsolete or deprogrammed singularities (M/L) represent critical contexts but also opportunities for a new Open City. Open Systems have been the research focus of CoLab since 2013. This book collects some relevant and engagingly contemporary insights. It also includes new unpublished interviews and articles with international participants leading players in this field. CoLaboratorio is a research, prototyping and production space. From the contemporary architecture project CoLab works around industrialization, flexible systems, project participation and collaborative dynamics.
