Introducción. Durante la etapa escolar del alumnado en los centros educativos se producen diferentes situaciones personales y académicas que influyen de manera determinante tanto en la personalidad como en el rendimiento del mismo. Por ello, el estudio de variables como la inteligencia emocional, el engagement así como el rendimiento escolar contribuirá a comprender las relaciones entre dichos constructos siendo el objetivo del presente trabajo analizar la relación entre la inteligencia emocional, el engagement académico y el rendimiento escolar en una muestra de 3512 estudiantes adolescentes pertenecientes a 18 centros de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO).  Método. El presente trabajo consistió en un estudio ex post-facto de carácter prospectivo con un diseño descriptivo simple, respondiendo a un muestreo aleatorio. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron las versiones españolas del Traid Meta–Mood Scale-24 (TMMS-24), el Utrecht Work Engagement Scale–Student (UWES-S) y el rendimiento escolar se cuantificó a través de la nota media del alumnado.Resultados. Los resultados mostraron relaciones positivas del rendimiento escolar con todas las dimensiones del engagement académico y la inteligencia emocional, salvo con la percepción emocional; actuando, a su vez, como valor predictivo de la dedicación a las tareas académicas.Discusión y conclusiones.  Se desprende la necesidad de promover comportamientos adaptativos en el aula como facilitadores de las actitudes positivas hacia el desempeño escolar y mejora del desarrollo integral y rendimiento escolar de los estudiantes.

In Baja California, an important point of reference is registered in grape production and its industrialization to obtain wine.In recent years this area of ​​vineyards has been consolidating as a destination of interest for visitors and tourists.Wine tasting activities of the region, restaurant and food service, and crafts are identified, placing it now as the Ruta del Vino (Colef, 2013). In this context, the promotion and growth of tourism activity, brings with it the growing presence of visitors, who demand food, water, transportation and who in turn generate waste and waste. In this position, the article addresses the analysis of wine tourism, identifying its activities and their effects, in the Ensenada region, to review this type of tourism, under the Good Tourism Practices approach. In the results it is possible to identify an incipient incorporation to these Good Tourism Practices. The present work is derived from a more extensive work that had the general objective of identifying the Good Practices of Oenological Tourism in the Valley of Guadalupe, Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. The scope of the research is defined as exploratory, descriptive, attempting to investigate the subject from a novel perspective, with little background in research and treatment, specifying the properties and characteristics of the situation and groups to study the chosen phenomenon (Sampieri et al., 2006). The research work from which this article derives was based on a qualitative methodology of the faith-nomenological type that, according to Creswell (1998), aims to describe and understand the phenomena from the point of view of each participant and from the perspective that is built collectively; In addition, it is based on discourse analysis. The methodology used was qualitative, descriptive and cross-sectional. For data collection, the semi-structured interview technique applied to fourteen wine companies in the region was used, of the 119 registered in 2017 on the official website of the Ministry of Tourism of the State of Baja California (SECTURE, 2017 ). The data analysis was developed using the IT tool ATLAS TI. One of the fundamental conclusions is that the follow-up of Good Practices in wine tourism points to the need to strengthen the wine culture in Valle de Guadalupe.

En Baja California Sur, la mayor derrama económica proviene del sector turístico, particularmente del ofrecido en el municipio de Los Cabos. Sin embargo, a pesar de que el servicio recreativo de playa es uno de los más conspicuos en el sistema, a la fecha se desconocen trabajos relacionados con la valoración de este servicio así como del segmento de población que permita estimar el excedente al consumidor. Con este objetivo, en el presente trabajo se consideraron los métodos de preferencias revelados (Costo de Viaje) aplicados a los visitantes y se calculó el excedente del consumidor (EC) de recreación de playa de Los Cabos como destino turístico. Éste se estimó en USD $588.24 por día en promedio y por estadía por visitante se calculó en USD$ 4,941.22 con un promedio de 8.4 días. El destino turístico de Los Cabos desde que se creó como polo de desarrollo ha funcionado para la diversificación de otros productos turísticos, como por ejemplo localidades cercanas, áreas naturales protegidas, “pueblos mágicos”, pesca deportiva, buceo. La implementación de políticas públicas alineadas a la conservación de los servicios recreativos en las diferentes zonas permitirá canalizar los beneficios económicos al bienestar social de las comunidades locales.

Digital communication strategies establish as a main tactic the tool to maintain an assertive web page, which can connect more than a single message with its users directly, therefore the aim of this research was to identify and analyze descriptively the way in which The web pages communicate as a tourist destination to Cozumel and what is the importance that is being given to the Natural Protected Areas (ANP). he methodology followed was qualitative by analyzing the different web pages that position it as a target brand of the different web pages that position it as a destination brand, that is to say, the three websites with the best ranking in Google's web browser and the three most important official portals of government agencies, based on the promotion of tourism in that place. With these selected pages was made use of the analysis model of web pages that considers the elements of the image was used considers the elements of the image, title, subtitle, text, epigraph, slogan and blow-outs, based on the works of Moles & Zeltmann and others, and in addition, an analysis of the main image was carried out in a denotative and connotative sense. As a result, it was found that in most places it is possible to locate Cozumel as a tourist destination, but none of them propose or propose to promote the ANP, it is not promoted to tourist destinations such as places that are immersed in flora and fauna protection reserves. Besides, it emphasizes the superiority of non-governmental sites, independent portals handle more attractive sites that manage to be a decision factor in tourists, while official sites maintain a more informative strategy than a promotion towards the new tourist

Initiated in the early 2000s, the Mexican government´s Magic Towns program is a policy strategy that seeks to promote the diversification of the country´s traditional tourist attractions in order to afford greater opportunities for local development. Recently the national tourism authorities have begun a process of reevaluation of the program, so as to underscore not only the material but also the symbolic attributes of localities. This research studies the case of the Magic Town of Loreto, Baja California Sur, in and the results of the 2015 evaluation for the renovation of the tourist certificate. Departing from the configuration of a situational image of the operability of the program in a local environment and his implications in the perception of the tourist across strategies of analysis of macrodata (BigData), proposing the transition of a traditional model of development tourist of magic towns to one of smart destinations based on the maximization of the experience of tourist, that will increase the indexes of competitiveness of this localities.

Introducción. Este artículo analiza un aspecto referencial en las enseñanzas en el marco de la Educación Superior como es el de la satisfacción de los estudiantes con la realización de los trabajos de fin de titulación (TFT).Método. Se realizó un estudio longitudinal durante tres cursos académicos sobre la satisfacción de los estudiantes con los TFT. Se trabajó con una muestra de 1331 estudiantes, 1014 de grado y 317 de máster distribuidos en 30 grados y 23 másteres. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron 1) Hallar los indicadores de fiabilidad y de validez de la Escala de satisfacción, 2) Comprobar si existían diferencias significativas atendiendo a las variables el tipo de estudios y tipo de rama de conocimiento, 3) Estudiar las propuestas de mejora sugeridas por los estudiantes.Resultados. Respecto del primer objetivo se encontraron indicadores de fiabilidad altos (α = .88; α = .90) y de validez que se comprobaron con un Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio (AFC). Respecto del segundo objetivo, se hallaron diferencias significativas en la satisfacción de los estudiantes en las dos variables en todos los ítems de la Escala, salvo en la satisfacción general. Relativo al tercer objetivo, las indicaciones de mejora se concretaron en optimizar la planificación y la tutorización.Discusión y conclusiones. Futuras acciones formativas se concretan en un plan de formación del profesorado que contemple las acciones de mejora detectadas, así como su seguimiento en una propuesta de mejora continua.

Introducción.  Las funciones ejecutivas implican habilidades cognitivas y metacognitivas que configuran un sofisticado sistema de control y revisión de las conductas implicadas en la toma de decisiones, cruciales en la realización de las tareas y la conducta adaptativa. El control inhibitorio y atencional, la planificación, la autorregulación o la flexibilidad cognitiva son algunos de sus componentes directamente relacionados con el rendimiento académico. Este estudio examina la relación entre variables vinculadas al funcionamiento ejecutivo y al aprendizaje con el rendimiento en Matemáticas en alumnos de Educación Primaria.Método.  Participaron en el estudio 519 alumnos de ambos géneros, con una edad media de 10.74 años (DT = .66), clasificados en tres grupos (bajo, medio y alto) según el rendimiento matemático.Resultados. Los resultados muestran relaciones significativas y negativas del rendimiento en matemáticas con el déficit de atención, hiperactividad e impulsividad; así como positivas con las estrategias de aprendizaje, la actitud hacia el estudio y el autoconcepto académico. Las diferencias entre los grupos de rendimiento matemático son significativas prácticamente en todas las variables estudiadas.Discusión y conclusiones.  Es necesario plantear intervenciones en contextos escolares que tengan en cuenta tanto las funciones ejecutivas como el entrenamiento intencional en estrategias de aprendizaje, y así favorecer un mayor rendimiento académico.

This technical report describes a web based plataform for accessing school engagement in its three dimensions (emotional, cognitive, and behavioural) and the contextual variables with influences in school engagement (family, teachers and peers). The platform delivers results online through individual reports on students sent to teachers and psychosocial teams as well as the pupil themselves and their parents or guardians, it also provides aggregate reports by grades and schools for teachers, psychosocial team and school managers to assist contextualised and informed decisions.This technological platform for accessing school engagement was developed in Chile. Ir is based on specially designed and psychometrally  validated instruments for meassuring school engagement and contextual factors, and on a tool for predective modelling on student behavior and contextua factors. The platform is currently being adjusted and tested for use in other Ibero american countries (Peru, Uruguay, Colombia, and Spain). 

Introduction. Students usually answer comprehension questions from texts as part of their academic activities. Feedback has been found to be relatively effective to improve comprehension and learning from texts. However, there is little research on how computer-based feedback influences the question-answering process. This study examines the effects of elaborated feedback (EF) on the students’ question-answering performance and their accuracy to assess textual relevance. Further, the study explores whether EF influences the question, the text-search, and the feedback processing. Method. Seventy-five 7th and 8th grade students answered a set of questions having the text available. During the question-answering process, students were forced to highlight the text information they considered relevant to answer each question. While half of the students received EF on their question-answering performance and their accuracy to assess textual relevance, the other half had access to the same screens without formative feedback (i.e., control feedback group). Results. EF enhanced the students’ question-answering performance and reduced the amount of non-relevant text information students assessed as question-relevant. However, EF did not affect the question-relevant text information highlighted. Although EF did not influence the question and the text-search processing times in comparison to the control feedback group, students who received EF devoted more time and accessed additional information more often than the control group. Discussion and conclusion. Computer-based EF on the students’ question-answering performance and their accuracy to assess textual relevance can be efficient to improve the students’ question-answering process. This study sheds light on how to deliver EF in a digital environment. However, further research is necessary to explore the cognitive and metacognitive processes involved in feedback processing.

Introduction: The Alternate Forms Public Domain (AFPD) RIASEC markers are tools that since its creation have been widely used in various cultures for the study of personality and interests, mainly in the academic field. The main purpose of the present study was to develop a Spanish version of the AFPD RIASEC and analyze their psychometric properties in Argentinean samples.Method: The sample was 1107 university students (61.6% female and 38% male), aged between 18 to 62 years old. The translation of the items, studies of internal structure, convergent validity and internal consistency were carried out.Results: The results suggested that the Spanish version of the AFPD has an adequate internal structure and can be used to accurately assess the six basic personality types that were proposed by Holland. We verified the same psychometric properties of the markers for occupational and activity items to measure interest and self-efficacy.Discussion: Overall, the results were encouraging, indicating that this instrument can be considered an acceptable option for Argentinean college students to measure professional interests and self-efficacy as an auxiliary tool for career counseling
