Molecular research demand the creation of new protocols and permit the obtain a high quality DNA in the most quantity of species and know the genetic diversity, for that objective of the present research was obtained the purification and amplification of scales DNA in the snake Bothrops atrox. the scales were recollected in the field using the visual encounter survey [5] The For the purification of the DNA was modification the protocol [4], the DNA purity was verifiable for the electrophoretic method and it quality and concentration for spectrophotometry, the amplification was carried for Polymerase chain reaction-PCR using random primers. The results show the successful DNA purification, showing an acceptable quality ratio (2) and concentration (585.85 µg/mL), at the same time was made the amplification of DNA for PCR. We conclude indicating the useful of this technique for the purification of high quality DNA from snake´s scales for molecular and genetic research.

This work was carried out between the months of July to September 2010 with the objective of molecular characterization of the species heliconia sp using the RAPD molecular marker. For this, we performed the purification of genomic DNA, of the species under study with good results in terms of quality and quantity of purified DNA, which was verified by electrophoretic and spectrophometric methods, the amount of DNA obtained was on average 92.8 ng/ l, also the ratio of average quality was 2.2. For amplification of PCR products was used MT3R initiator, obtaining much polymorphism. PCR products had sizes of 750 bp to 2050 bp. as for the molecular characterization, we performed a dendrogram (UPGMA) using the statiscal sofwar version 2.0 NTSIS. It also obtained the formation of 2 groups (clusters) and 2 leaks where we the appearance  of “apparent duplicates” in some of them, ie they share the same genetic patern with 100% similarity. Also, the value of expected heterozygosity was 0.14, relatively low value, possibly the type of reproduction that has this kind, which is the autogamous.

Inclusive education is an urgent need in the Peruvian educational system. The Education Act states that this is a right for all without distinction, however education for children with special abilities have been locked up in special schools, limiting participants to a confined education, avoiding social interaction with peers and socialization in their midst. The research presented aims to provide input regarding the updating of teaching and non-teachers working in special and basic education in regular primary education, it is proposed a training program in Inclusive Education and its new approach to help to overcome the condition of children with special educational needs for social integration.

Over the last decades and largely due to changes taking place in labour markets, there has been a pressing need to rethink pedagogical processes. Today, educational institutions face the challenge of not only having to create learning environments conducive to the acquisition of knowledge, but also scenarios suited to the development of learning skills. Our analysis will focus precisely on one of such scenarios and will determine its impact on the learning skills of twenty inmate students, based on the qualitative analysis of their perceptions and narratives and using the Pedagogical Model developed by Author (2017) for the design of e-learning activities focused on the “deconstruction” of moving images as a reference. The findings show that the design of the environment, based on this model and on the use of audiovisual technologies, can have very positive effects on inmate students’ self-learning in the following dimensions: Active Learning, Initiative and Autonomy.

La gamificación consiste en ludificar los contenidos de una determinada materia o asignatura a través de dinámicas, mecánicas y componentes. Con este proceso se puede lograr una mayor motivación e implicación del alumno, así como fomentar el desarrollo de competencias y del aprendizaje autónomo. Así, el presente texto describe el desarrollo de esta herramienta para la asignatura “Estadística Aplicada al Sector Turístico” del Grado en Turismo con el objetivo de lograr presentar un proceso formativo dinámico y atractivo para el alumno. No obstante, se elabora desde un punto transversal que permita su implementación en asignaturas similares implementadas en enseñanzas superiores de grado. En más detalle, se desarrolla una narrativa entorno a la promoción profesional del alumno dentro de una empresa hotelera ficticia donde irá alcanzando mayor rango profesional a medida que avanza el juego y va superando una serie de pruebas/eventos. Esta narrativa fomenta el interés intrínseco en la actividad por parte del alumno, al mismo tiempo que refuerza la utilidad del propio juego de cara a futuras experiencias profesionales.

El presente artículo analiza la visión del profesorado sobre el proyecto E-DIXGAL en la Comunidad Autónoma de Galicia. Este proyecto se trata de la primera iniciativa desde la Administración para la implantación del libro digital en los centros educativos. Así, toma como referente el proyecto Abalar —denominación autonómica del Programa Escuela 2.0—el cual busca la integración plena de las TIC en la práctica educativa gallega.El análisis de carácter cualitativo se realiza a través de la técnica de la entrevista aplicada a ocho profesores/as que pertenecen a centros de carácter urbano y rural de todas las provincias gallegas. Los resultados obtenidos manifiestan un nivel de inclusión de las TIC insuficiente, corroboran los antecedentes teóricos y retratan nuevas problemáticas relacionadas con el desarrollo futuro del proyecto E-DIXGAL.

Se presenta una revisión de las investigaciones dedicadas a lo largo de la última década al estudio de la tecnología como soporte en el aprendizaje de las ciencias por indagación en educación primaria. Analizando 44 trabajos resultantes se sintetiza la información sobre la tipología de apoyos y herramientas tecnológicas, la adecuación de la herramienta a la diversidad de las aulas y la evolución de las ayudas ofrecidas por los maestros en estos contextos. La investigación educativa en este ámbito es claramente insuficiente dada la trascendencia social de las cuestiones abiertas.

Serious games are increasingly being used as innovative tool for developing entrepreneurial skills, such as strategic management, leadership, communication, negotiation or decision making. FLIGBY is a serious game that was initially developed with the objective of simulating the business management process and the application of Flow theory in a business context. However, most recently it has been suggested that serious games in general, and FLIGBY in particular, can be used in other contexts, namely in the development of entrepreneurial skills. In this sense, this study tries to verify if the competences developed and evaluated in FLIGBY on the Master Analytics Profiler (MAP) can be used to evaluate the entrepreneurial capacities of the students in the context of the course of entrepreneurship in a higher education institution. The findings indicate that the performance of these students in FLIGBY is very similar to the benchmark with only small oscillations. However, some asymmetries emerged considering the educational and professional experience, such that the students of the management course showed better business-oriented thinking and IT students revealed greater time-management skills. Finally, professional experience has proved to be relevant for making decisions about stress and for the completion of managerial tasks successfully.

Nowadays, improvements in teaching are closely related to the use of technologies which have been defined as unprecedented educational tools. This study analyzes the use that 118 Spanish teachers make of five digital tools; Google, Wikis, Blogs, YouTube and WhatsApp in the educational center and the impact of the socio-labor variables of these teachers on the greater or lesser use of digital tools for teaching and evaluation. To this end, a questionnaire is designed and validated, in both its versions, printed and online, and two types of analysis are carried out, one descriptive and the other multivariate, using General Linear Model. The results show different patterns in the use of digital tools by teachers according to their age, gender, professional experience, type of school and performance of academic positions. The implications of these results are discussed and evaluated.

El presente artículo detalla un proyecto de innovación docente diseñado para fomentar el desarrollo de la competencia comunicativa e intercultural en lengua inglesa en los alumnos de un Grado de Lenguas Modernas en el sur de España mediante una metodología basada en la indagación[1] ABI. Asimismo, el proyecto se basa en un estudio o trabajo de campo llevado a cabo con miembros de la población de extranjeros angloparlantes—británicos e irlandeses y procedentes de países del norte y centro de Europa—residentes en la misma Región de Murcia. En el presente artículo argumentamos las ventajas del enfoque ABI para el aula de lenguas extranjeras además de detallar sus bases teóricas y fases dentro del ciclo de aprendizaje. A continuación, describimos de forma pormenorizada el método aplicado al estudio de campo con extranjeros que nos concierne. Concluimos con unas sugerencias para la implantación del proyecto en contextos geográficos distintos en el que no sea tan accesible una comunidad de anglo-parlantes.
