Abstract.THE USE OF THE TOOLS EVALCOMIX IN THE EVALUATION OF COMPETENCES IN THE MASTER AND DEGREE DISSERTATION WORK.A multi-disciplinary group from several Spanish universities is carrying out a Teaching Innovation Project with the aim of using tools that allow university teachers to assess the development of competences among the students of Master and Degree Dissertation. Taking into account the current educational context, characterized by the use of new technologies and the lack of attendance to the classroom, we consider the use of the tools facilitated by the virtual campus such as EVALCOMIX that allows managing control lists, assessment scales and rubrics, among others.Keywords: Teaching innovation, competence evaluation, virtual campus, rubricsResumen.Un grupo multidisciplinar de varias universidades españolas, estamos llevando a cabo un Proyecto de Innovación Docente que tiene como objetivo la utilización de herramientas que permitan al profesorado disponer de las bases para poder evaluar el grado de desarrollo competencial de sus alumnos en las asignaturas de Fin de Grado y de Master. Dado el contexto educativo actual, caracterizado por la semipresencialidad y la utilización de las TICs, recurriremos a los medios que nos ofrece nuestro campus virtual, en el que están presentes instrumentos de evaluación (como EVALCOMIX) que nos permiten gestionar listas de control, escalas de valoración y rúbricas, entre otras.Palabras Clave: Innovación docente, evaluación de competencias, campus virtual, rúbricas

Abstract. Background: High school and university teachers need to advise students against attempting suicide, the second leading cause of death among 15–29-year-olds. Aims: To investigate the role of reasoning and emotion in advising against suicide. Method: We conducted a study with 130 students at a university that specializes in teachers' education. Participants sat in front of a camera, videotaping their advising against suicide. Three raters scored their transcribed advice on "wise reasoning" (i.e., expert forms of reasoning: considering a variety of conditions, awareness of the limitation of one's knowledge, taking others' perspectives). Four registered psychologists experienced in suicide prevention techniques rated the transcripts on the potential for suicide prevention. Finally, using the software Facereader 7.1, we analyzed participants' micro-facial expressions during advice-giving. Results: Wiser reasoning and less disgust predicted higher potential for suicide prevention. Moreover, higher potential for suicide prevention was associated with more surprise. Limitations: The actual efficacy of suicide prevention was not assessed. Conclusion: Wise reasoning and counter-stereotypic ideas that trigger surprise probably contribute to the potential for suicide prevention. This advising paradigm may help train teachers in advising students against suicide, measuring wise reasoning, and monitoring a harmful emotional reaction, that is, disgust.

The University

The conditions are investigated in which Spanish university teachers carry out their teaching and research functions. 655 teachers from the University of Oviedo took part in this study by completing the Academic Setting Evaluation Questionnaire (ASEQ). Of the three dimensions assessed in the ASEQ, Satisfaction received the lowest ratings, Social Climate was rated higher, and Relations with students was rated the highest. These results are similar to those found in two studies carried out in the academic years 1986/87 and 1989/90. Their relevance for higher education is twofold because these data can be used as a complement of those obtained by means of students' opinions, and the crossing of both types of data can facilitate decision making in order to improve the quality of the work (teaching and research) of the university institutions.

Within the implementation of the national strategy for improving financial competency and financial education in Russia, aimed at the broad masses of the population, any experience in promoting financial competency among young people, accumulated in the system of training bachelors of Economics, will be useful. The purpose of the article is to present the methodological and practical aspects of teaching the basics of financial calculations of future economists and the formation of computer modeling skills in the field of financial and economic activity. The reason for writing the article was the problem of interdisciplinary integration in the system of financial and economic education. The analysis of educational literature and curricula of the system of secondary and higher professional education, as well as the study and generalization of pedagogical experience showed weak integration of mathematical and economic disciplines with information technologies. The article also presents the problems associated with the calculations in the financial and economic activities with the use of computer modeling. The elements of the presented methods of teaching the basics of financial computing in conjunction with the modeling of financial problems on the computer can be useful for both school teachers and university teachers of mathematics and computer science.
