The importance of research on the teaching and learning of human anatomy is currently recognized, especially if it is considered that university courses in this area continue the traditional scheme that predominates worldwide, prioritizing transmissive teaching, rote learning and summative evaluation. The purpose of this work was the construction of models for the teaching-learning (T-L) of human anatomy in which the writing, illustration and animation of a story is proposed as a method of T-L of the anatomy of the brachial plexus (nerves of the upper limb). For this, the model construction process was followed, taking into account the definition of the objective, the initial observation, the reading of the theory, the form of representation, the verification of the proposed model, and the socialization. This T-L method allowed the students to achieve a deep understanding of the topic, in this case, the spatial location of the brachial plexus, the relationship of the anatomical structures and their clinical correlation. Therefore, it can be concluded that the elaboration of models allowed the students to take ownership of their learning process by proposing, exploring and deploying their creativity and critical thinking; in addition, the attitude of the teachers, who participated as mediators, contributed to the students’ cognitive and emotional engagement in the academic activity.

There are various combinations of 3D printing technology and medical study process. The aim of this study was to summarize our first experience on 3D printing and outline how 3D printed models can be successfully used in Human Anatomy modern teaching and learning. In 2018 autumn semester, together with traditional methods, a three-dimensional (3D) printing has been introduced into Human Anatomy curriculum at Department of Morphology. In practical classes 39 groups of students from Faculty of Medicine 1st year together with 3 tutors used 3 different open source softwares to create anatomical models and prepared them for printing process. All anatomical models were produced using an FDM 3D printer, a Prusa i3 MK2 (Prusa Research). As methods for data collection were used our observational notes during teaching and learning, analysis of discussions between tutors and students, comments on the preparing and usability of the created and printed models. 3D printing technology offered students a powerful tool for their teaching, learning and creativity, provided possibility to show human body structures or variations. Presented data offered valuable information about current situation and these results were suitable for the further development of the Human Anatomy study course.

La Didáctica centrada en el estudiante exige la utilización de concepciones, modelos, alternativas, estrategias y métodos adecuados, en los que el proceso de enseñanza- aprendizaje se conciba cada vez más como resultado del vínculo entre lo afectivo, lo cognitivo, las interacciones sociales y la comunicación. La presente investigación científica ofrece elementos teóricos y metodológicos esenciales que permiten asumir posiciones bien fundamentadas y estructuradas acerca de las estrategias pedagógicas dirigidas a los docentes y los métodos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, lo que en ocasiones se aborda desde diversas posiciones, no siempre consistentes y con múltiples acepciones e interpretaciones. La Pedagogía se enfrenta a un gran reto en estos momentos, la dirección y conducción adecuada del proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje en la Educación Superior con el empleo del Constructivismo, donde el estudiante sea quien produzca el conocimiento desarrollando un pensamiento crítico, reflexivo desde el punto de vista cognoscitivo, poniendo a su disposición estrategias de aprendizaje en un contexto donde lamentablemente predomina una Pedagogía Conductista. El presente artículo aborda las estrategias de enseñanza- y aprendizaje que permiten tanto al profesor como al estudiante, tener una comprensión profunda de este fenómeno dentro del proceso docente educativo en la Facultad de Marketing y Comunicación, de la Universidad Tecnológica Ecotec.   Student-centered Didactics requires the use of appropriate conceptions, models, alternatives, strategies and methods, in which the teaching-learning process is increasingly conceived as a result of the link between the affective, the cognitive, social interactions and the communication. This scientific research offers essential theoretical and methodological elements that allow us to assume well-founded and structured positions about pedagogical strategies aimed at teachers and teaching and learning methods, which is sometimes approached from different positions, not always consistent and with multiple meanings and interpretations. Pedagogy faces a great challenge at this time, the proper direction and conduction of the teaching and learning process in Higher Education with the use of Constructivism, where the student is the one who produces knowledge by developing critical thinking, reflective from the point of view. from a cognitive point of view, making learning strategies available to them in a context where, unfortunately, a Behavioral Pedagogy predominates. This article addresses the teaching- and learning strategies that allow both the teacher and the student to have a deep understanding of this phenomenon within the educational teaching process at the Faculty of Marketing and Communication of the Ecotec Technological University.

The breakneck pace of digital technologies has created a dramatic shift in marketing campaigns to engage users through unique and innovative experiences. Focusing on the same grounds, this study relates the market engagement with users’ loyalty (UL) for Facebook social media. Market engagement has been measured through four constructs of innovative engagement (IE), functional engagement (FE), emotional engagement (EE), and communal engagement (CE). Blogging has been included as a moderator in the relation between IE, FE, EE, CE, and UL. To measure these relationships, study proposed two models and developed five hypotheses. Data were collected through structured questionnaire aimed at referral groups i.e., habitual users of Facebook. A total of 309 responses were included in the analysis through purposive sampling. Model 1 was tested with simple regression and it was found that the overall model was statistically significant and explained 65 percent of variation in UL. It was concluded that for online users, loyalty is affected by IE, FE, and CE, while EE is of least concern for them. Model 2 was tested through hierarchical regression after the inclusion of a moderator of BE in model 1. It was concluded that blogging acted as a partial moderator in between the relationship of IE, FE, EE, CE, and UL as the proposed model 2 was found to be significant. However, only CE yielded significant relationship with UL while IE, FE, and EE yielded insignificant relationship with UL in the presence of a moderator. The study concedes new insights for those social platforms and marketing companies that are seeking innovative and unique ways to retain their online users for long time.

By clarifying what global learning is and how it is essential to higher education, this article considers what global learning provides for teaching, learning, and internationalization in higher education. It demonstrates how the global nature of knowledge and learning in the 21st century requires a re-definition of classrooms and learning environments that recognizes how knowledge production today is a collective, global, and diverse process. The article suggests a number of foundational principles for global learning, including relational approaches, reflection, contextualized knowledge, perspective shifting, disorientation, responsibility, and an ability to navigate the general and the particular. It concludes by revealing how a global learning framework has benefits beyond teaching and learning and how it can contribute to the deliberate internationalization of higher education.

Resumo Este trabalho visa apresentar resultados parciais de uma investigação sobre o ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa (LI) e formação de professores, desenvolvida em um curso de graduação em língua e literatura inglesas, em uma universidade pública mineira. À luz dos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da Análise do Discurso francesa em interface com os estudos em Linguística Aplicada, propomo-nos a discutir: (i) o desenho do curso e materiais e seu possível impacto na formação dos licenciandos; (ii) as representações por eles construídas acerca dos processos de ensino-aprendizagem de LI a distância; e (iii) as práticas de aprendizagem que têm sido desenvolvidas no curso. As análises apontam que a relação dos sujeitos com a LI vai se delineando e se ressignificando ao longo do curso e que as práticas de linguagem desenvolvidas no contexto das novas tecnologias se dão em processos de descontinuidade e não de uma suposta ruptura, trazendo à tona a relação singular que os sujeitos estabelecem com a língua que aprendem-ensinam. Palavras-chave: EaD, ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa, discurso, formação de professores.   Discursive aspects about/in English teaching-learning and teacher education in a distance course Abstract This paper presents partial results of a research on the teaching and learning of English language (EL) and teacher education, developed in an undergraduate course in English language and English language literature at a public university in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. In light of the theoretical and methodological assumptions of the French Discourse Analysis in its interface with studies in Applied Linguistics, we propose to discuss: (i) the course design and materials and their possible impact on the development of the undergraduates; (ii) the representations of the processes of teaching and learning the EL at a distance as built by them; and (iii) the learning practices that have been developed in the course. The analyzes suggest that the relationship of the subjects with the EL is constituted and given new meanings throughout the course and that the language practices developed in the context of the new technologies happen in discontinuity and not as a possible rupture, revealing the singular relationship that subjects have with the language that they learn-teach. Keywords: distance education, teaching and learning of English, discourse, teacher education.

There is almost digitization of the entire educational system, as there is an abundant of digital materials available. The educational system is not left out from the global standardization as well as authorities are imposing certain standard at local and global level. As a result, these data which are getting generated in the context of educational also complies all the basic characteristics of the Big Data such as volume in terms of size, and others velocity, variety etc. In order to store, search and process an open source project, Apache Hadoop has been conceptualized, whereas it lags the application specific needs especially in the field of education to enhance the teaching and learning processes. In this paper, an architectural model is illustrated to demonstrate the existing eco-system and a proposed model for provisioning the enhanced teaching -learning mechanism, so that it can be adopted to enhance the intelligence into mechanism of educational framework.

This work focuses on the advanced modeling of the thixotropic nature of blood, coupled with an elasto-visco-plastic formulation by invoking a consistent and validated model for TEVP materials. The proposed model has been verified for the adequate description of the rheological behavior of suspensions, introducing a scalar variable that describes dynamically the level of internal microstructure of rouleaux at any instance, capturing accurately the aggregation and disaggregation mechanisms of the RBCs. Also, a non-linear fitting is adopted for the definition of the model’s parameters on limited available experimental data of steady and transient rheometric flows of blood samples. We present the predictability of the new model in various steady and transient rheometric flows, including startup shear, rectangular shear steps, shear cessation, triangular shear steps and LAOS tests. Our model provides predictions for the elasto-thixotropic mechanism in startup shear flows, demonstrating a non-monotonic relationship of the thixotropic index on the shear-rate. The intermittent shear step test reveals the dynamics of the structural reconstruction, which in turn is associated with the aggregation process. Moreover, our model offers robust predictions for less examined tests such as uniaxial elongation, in which normal stress was found to have considerable contribution. Apart from the integrated modeling of blood rheological complexity, our implementation is adequate for multi-dimensional simulations due to its tensorial formalism accomplished with a single time scale for the thixotropic effects, resulting in a low computational cost compared to other TEVP models.

The history room is the important component in history teaching learning process. The history room can assist the teacher in giving a deep understanding about the student history awareness. But, in this case the using of history room by the teacher in teaching learning process isn’t optimal because of the room is limited. The limitation craeted some problem to the teacher so the socialization in managing and using the history room as a media in teaching and learning history was needed; and in the end  hopefully the student history awareness can be improved. The methods used to introduce the history room were explanation and discussion. The methods choosed as the first step because most of the teacher didn’t have enough information in using the history room as the media in teaching and learning history.  The result of this activity showed that the teacher understanding about history room improved. The understanding caused the teacher had a willing in developing and using the history room as a media in teaching and learning history. Although, there were some obstacles appeared in applying the history room in school, one of them was the support from the school but the communication with the school decision maker will be done to solve it.
