<p>Resumen</p><p>Profesores de inmunología de la Universidad de Alcalá hemos implementado en los últimos cinco años el modelo de aula inversa en tres asignaturas del grado de Biología Sanitaria. El porcentaje de alumnos que estudiaron los materiales instructivos (documentos y vídeos) antes de que los temas fuesen tratados en clase ha aumentado desde valores minoritarios en los primeros años a porcentajes cercanos al 100% en los últimos años. La calificación media obtenida por los alumnos en las pruebas de evaluación del aprendizaje ha mejorado en las tres asignaturas en más de una desviación estándar con respecto a la que se obtenía con metodologías expositivas tradicionales antes de la implantación del modelo de aprendizaje inverso. Los porcentajes de alumnos que fracasan han disminuido y han aumentado los porcentajes de alumnos que alcanzan un nivel de maestría (calificación ¿8 en una escala de diez). Los alumnos reconocen desarrollar competencias con las actividades realizadas en los seminarios. El grado de satisfacción de los alumnos también ha aumentado. Concluimos que con el modelo inverso los alumnos universitarios dedican más trabajo no presencial al estudio de sus asignaturas y a consecuencia de ello sus calificaciones en la pruebas de evaluación del aprendizaje mejoran significativamente</p><p> </p><p>Abstract</p><p>Immunology teachers form Alcala’s University implementes flipped classroom model in the last five years into three immunology courses in sanitary biology university degree. The percentage of students that studied the instructive materials (documents and videos) before class has increased from minority values in the first years to percentages close to 100% in the last years. The mean grade obtained by the classes in the learning assessment exams has increased in the three courses in more than one standard deviation with respect to the original mean obtained in each course with traditional expositive methods before the implementation of the flipped learning model. The percentages of failed students have decreased and those of students that attain mastery levels (grades ¿80% of the maximum grade) have increased. The students recognize that the flipped model helps them to develop competencies in the activities developed in the seminars. The degree of satisfaction with the teaching has also increased We can conclude that university students thanks to the flipped model devote more time of work to the study of flipped courses and as a consequence of this increase in study they learn more and obtain increased grades in the learning assessment exams.</p>

Transdisciplinary engineering curricula prepare future engineers with a holistic understanding of complex real-world problems, and the ability to tackle these problems with knowledge and skills in both engineering and non-engineering areas. What are transdisciplinary skills in the engineering education context? What learning activities can we design and implement to develop students’ transdisciplinary skills in the first-year engineering program? How can we assess transdisciplinary skills and evaluate the instructional effectiveness of these learning activities?The current study is an initial attempt to explore these questions. We introduce a conceptual framework ofusing systems thinking, empathy and metacognition asproxy indicators of transdisciplinary skills, and presentthe learning activities we have designed to developstudent competencies in these areas. In addition, wepropose an evaluation approach that includes a surveyinstrument and formative learning assessment, with which we investigate the relationships among empathy, systems thinking, and metacognitive skills in the context ofengineering education.

This research aimed to know university students’ perception about learning assessment carried out by their teachers, their level of objectivity and skill, among other aspects. The study was conducted in Medellin, Colombia, between January and July 2015. A final sample size of 400 university students from public and private institutions, randomly selected, was used. The data analysis was carried out by using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) with orthogonal-type canonical contrast, factor analysis, and one-dimensional type frequency analysis. It was found that university students have a good perception about the assessment practices of their teachers. Likewise, highly significant differences between men and women in their perception of learning assessment were identified. Students consider that learning assessment practices have contributed to improve their learning and are in accordance with the learning objectives. Nevertheless, most students have felt that their teachers are not objective in evaluation and they often use questions that confuse students, and very theoretical questions without application to practice. A lack of non-traditional assessment practices, such as peer assessment, self-assessment as well as virtual platforms use for assessments, was found. These findings imply the need to improve teacher training on assessment skills to allow them to plan evaluation as a strategy to improve learning, involving students in an active way.

Este artículo es un ensayo teórico-reflexivo orientado por la pregunta ¿por qué se debe cambiar la forma de evaluar al estudiantado universitario en el siglo XXI? Pretende ser un marco teórico introductorio en el tema, para quienes estén iniciando estudios o un acercamiento al fenómeno educativo, en el ámbito de la educación superior. Se propone que en el acto educativo existe una triada indisoluble formada por la mediación pedagógica, las estrategias de aprendizaje estudiantil y la evaluación de los aprendizajes. Para ello, el texto se compone de cinco títulos: el propósito de la educación superior, la función docente, la evaluación de los aprendizajes, el modelo Enseñanza para la Comprensión, y el rol docente en los procesos evaluativos.Palabras claves: educación superior, docencia universitaria, evaluación de aprendizajesAbstractThis paper is a theoretical-reflexive essay guided by the question: why is it necessary to change the way of assessing university students in the XXI century? It pretends to be an introductory theoretical framework for those who are beginning to study or to approach the educational phenomenon regarding Higher Education. It is proposed that in the educational act exists an unbreakable triad formed by teaching (the pedagogical intervention), learning (students’ learning strategies), and assessing (learning’s assessment). Therefore, five aspects are addressed: the purpose of Higher Education, the teaching role, the learning assessment, the Teaching for Understanding model, and the teaching role in the evaluative processes.Keywords: higher education, university teaching, learning’s assessment

Abstract. Music video (MV) content is frequently measured using researcher descriptions. This study examines subjective or viewers’ notions of sex and violence. 168 university students watched 9 mainstream MVs. Incidence counts of sex and violence involve more mediating factors than ratings. High incidents are associated with older viewers, higher scores for Expressivity, lower scores for Instrumentality, and with video orders beginning with high sex and violence. Ratings of sex and violence are associated with older viewers and lower scores for Instrumentality. For sex MVs, inexperienced viewers reported higher incidents and ratings. Because MVs tend to be sexier but less violent than TV and film, viewers may also use comparative media standards to evaluate emotional content MVs.

The Relationship

The current study proposes and refines the Appraisals in Personality (AIP) model in a multilevel investigation of whether appraisal dimensions of emotion predict differences in state neuroticism and extraversion. University students (N = 151) completed a five-factor measure of trait personality, and retrospectively reported seven situations from the previous week, giving state personality and appraisal ratings for each situation. Results indicated that: (a) trait neuroticism and extraversion predicted average levels of state neuroticism and extraversion respectively, and (b) five of the examined appraisal dimensions predicted one, or both of the state neuroticism and extraversion personality domains. However, trait personality did not moderate the relationship between appraisals and state personality. It is concluded that appraisal dimensions of emotion may provide a useful taxonomy for quantifying and comparing situations, and predicting state personality.
