The heating by magnetic induction has been successfully implemented in processes for annealing ce-ramic pieces, surface hardening, melting, hot forging, welding, among others, thus demonstrating its versatility and effectiveness. In this article the design and construction of a prototype heating for water pools by magnetic induction is detailed. Its operation is based on a quasi-resonant inverter responsi-ble for generating high frequency electromagnetic waves, which induce high value parasitic currents that produce the heating of ferromagnetic elements close to the induction coil. The contribution with this research is the study of the energy consumed and the time spent at different power levels.

The purpose of this paper is to identify the modalities and tourist destinations of the Puerto Qui-to Canton, for which the available information - in digital repositories, specialized bibliography and indexed articles that analyze their definitions and experiences in the global context - that could be applied in the field of study was systematized. The research was based on procedures of geogra-phical field observation, ranking of tourist attractions, identification of ecosystems, determination of cultural expressions, registration of tourism services companies, as well as a survey aimed at tourists. Descriptive statistics were used and the data obtained through bars and pie charts were analyzed with the support of Excel software. The results obtained will be the basis of tourism planning for the public, private, local communities and the academy that has prospective projects in the territory.

Education is an indispensable tool in the formation of societies, and since ancient times has been a mechanism to define the behaviors and stereotypes that should govern and shape communities. Likewise, education has always been governed by a teaching-learning process that has led, in one way or another, to an evaluation process. Both, teaching and evaluation, have led years of evolution together, according to educational environments and according to the social characteristics of each community. This paper presents the situations presented in an extramural evaluation that was carried out in an educational institution of a religious nature with a group of students with a certain level of academic preparation. The results showed little disposition for the studies, lack of values and lack of commitment. Finally, the conclusions are presented where the possible reasons that led to the results are evident.

Trans people are among the most vulnerable members of any society and experience high levels of stigmatization and marginalization. This article is analyzing the rights of transsexual people, ad-dressing both case law and legislation in the European and Latin American context. Within the inter-national legal cognitive knot and supported by the qualitative methodology, a characterization of the legal-fact reality of the legislation applicable to these people.

This article proposes an analysis of the multiple expressions of feminism in women's organizations of popular sectors. The reflections are based on ethnographic stories about situations that took place within the framework of the pre-professional practices of the 5th level of the Degree in Social Work -Faculty of Social Sciences, National University of Cordoba- held at the Women's Fair of Barrio 16 de Noviembre (City of Cordoba, Argentina). From this experience we seek to account for different positions and social representations on feminism. First of all, with the help of Latin American intellectuals, we intend to make critical contributions to colonial Western hegemonic feminism, which invisibilizes some expressions within the women's movement. Secondly, from the epistemic approach proposed by Latin American popular feminisms, we bet on recovering other ways of doing politics from intersectionality, which will allow us to understand the validity of patriarchal logics within women's organizations of popular sectors. Finally, located in our intervention space, we propose a synthesis of feminist pedagogy (Korol, 2016) and the counter-pedagogy of cruelty (Segato, 2018).

Si para Chile me voy, cruzando la cordillera… Nuevos rostros, nuevas reflexiones, nuevas plumas están apareciendo en el trabajo social de ese país. En su  mayoría, se trata de las hijas e hijos de aquellas apuestas fuertes que nos entregara el trabajo social chileno por la década de 1960 y  que hoy, protagonistas de otros momentos históricos, mantienen la preocupación por la transformación.

The article is the product of the work carried out in the Sanitary Commission of Tuberculosis Control of the Province of Córdoba, Republic of Argentina. Its objective is to problematize the concept of adherence to treatment in order to overcome the positivist view, to identify social determinants that intervene in the health-disease-attention process that influence during treatment and to describe the contributions of Social Work in this process. It is considered that an integral treatment must incorporate interventions that mitigate the determinants that hinder the culmination of the treatment or that prevent seeing the real causes of the failures. In Córdoba, Law 9185/04 provides economic support as part of comprehensive health treatment; strategies are designed to promote adherence of patients whose access to the health system is hindered. Through the qualitative analysis of the interviews of admission to the 2017 Program, obtained in the hospitals and primary care centers of the capital and interior of Cordoba, it is concluded that adherence is more than compliance with the indication, it implies a process by which subjects aware of their health situation, empower themselves of their right to access to it and make use of it, through the use of devices provided for that purpose, from their own particularities. In the process of adherence to treatment for tuberculosis, it is important to highlight the patient-health team relationship, which will be decisive in the culmination of the treatment. For the analysis of the data we used the information that comes from the interviews of admission to the Program. In 2017, 84 formal transfer requests were received, and qualitative analysis was carried out from these semi-structured interviews. Throughout the trial, the term "patient" is used as a synonym for people under treatment, service users, or citizens.

In a context traversed by the neoliberal model, the crisis of health policies and the increasing marketization of access to health, the need to problematize the scope and limitations of the intervention processes that take place in healthcare devices is weighted. The proposal calls for the creation of interdisciplinary mental health teams within the framework of a national demanicomialization law inscribed in a community and intersectoral paradigm that highlights the processes of inequality that take place in the polyvalent emergency facility. In this sense, the purpose of the research lies in the realization of an analytical and retrospective ethnographic description (Guber, 1991) linked to the study of a unique and instrumental case (Stake, 1994) as it is the mental health guard device of a polyvalent hospital in CABA selecting witness vignettes and generating a multifocal analysis from a team of researchers composed of students, residents and health agents in practice. The coparticipative construction not only enriches the construction of knowledge entails but also reveals the modes of production and reproduction that go through the processes of training human resources in health.

The following text aims to recover the work experience in the Mother House of the city of San Cristóbal de las Casas, within the framework of the rotation of the Social Work and Health Residency, under the Ministry of Health Córdoba Province, during the months of October and November of the year 2018. The actions developed focused on the problems related to the users and traditional midwives who provide their services there. Analyzing the normative framework in maternal health and its contrast with policies and their conception of underlying subjects, the commodification of health that they reinforce, the hegemony of the allopathic medical model over traditional indigenous medicine, and socio-sanitary barriers that hinder access to health services. For this we recover contributions of the Social Work discipline in relation to maternal health and health, proposing, before the local authorities, a series of actions aimed at strengthening the services that the aforementioned health center provides for the reduction of maternal death, objective for which that space was created.
