La inclusión de la población adulta en los procesos educativos universitarios, deriva un compromiso institucional de la Corporación Universitaria Americana que va en la línea de la calidad en la educación, porque se identifican las necesidades específicas en el proceso de formación de los estudiantes que están matriculados entre los 40 y 60 años de edad, y se construye, a partir del análisis contextual-experiencial, soluciones innovadoras a través de la incorporación de tecnologías cómo la visión por computador, reconocimiento de voz, aprendizaje de máquina, detección de movimientos, entre otros. Estas herramientas integradas a estudios de andragogía, se usan en el contexto educativo de la Corporación Universitaria Americana, y permiten la inclusión digital al aprovechar las competencias que han desarrollado los adultos en su experiencia de vida y los acercan a las tecnologías desde sus fortalezas, para crear prácticas significativas que les permiten acceder a nuevas oportunidades y desafíos en su entorno escolar, disminuyendo la curva de aprendizaje requerida para interactuar con las TIC.AbstractThe inclusion of the adult population in university educational processes, derived an institutional commitment to the American University Corporation that goes on the line of quality in education, because identify specific needs in the training process of the enrolled students between 40 and 60 years old, and it builds from contextual-experiential analysis, innovative solutions through the incorporation of technologies such computer vision, speech recognition, machine learning, motion tracking, among others. These tools integrated to andragogy studies, are used in the educational context of the American University Corporation, and enable the digital inclusion by leveraging the skills they have developed in their life experience and approach them to technologies from their strengths, to create significant practices that allow them to gain access to new opportunities and challenges in their school environment, reducing the learning curve required to interact with ICT.

The article focuses on the problem of research methodology in linguistics and argues that motion pictures, or feature films, provide a good source of empirical data for a realistic investigation of language as a communicative behavior. Evidence from epistemology and philosophy of science shows that scriptism and rationalism as two dominating methodologies in traditional linguistics do not give a whole picture of language functionality because through them we cannot observe a human's communicative behavior in dynamics. The aim of the article is to offer an alternative understanding of the subject-matter, method and data for linguistic research which would be grounded on human experience observable in films. In particular, the term 'languaging' is adopted to describe the dynamic process of experience construction in referential and attentional framings. The investigation of languaging is thus based on the principle of holism, circularity and 'double perspectival' view of one's experience. The author of the article gives a number of reasons why written texts alone do not provide reliable data in this respect and why motion pictures are a more viable alternative. The paper introduces the methodology of holistic research and open-ended experiential analysis and demonstrates in a case study how counterfactuals as grammatically and experientially enacted patterns can be observed and investigated in the film Atonement.

According to the management and scheduled inspection of pressure vessels and piping in sulfur recovery unit, it described the evaluation of the failure probability and consequences of pressure vessels and piping by the Risk Based Inspection (RBI). This article focuses on the practical application process of RBI to the Sulfur Recovery Unit. Together with the production crafts and loop medium in pressure vessels and pipes, we could dig out high risk equipment and its’ reasons, therefore, suggest possible precautions. Further precautions will be provided for equipment manufacturers to assure production safety through personal experiential analysis and comparison with the similar product from the aspect of failure mechanism and position. It is aimed to explore the combined method of RBI and personal experiential analysis and it’s practical application.
