El planteamiento inicial desde la aparición de los nuevos grados en la comunidad universitaria, tiene en común exigir a los estudiantes ir adquiriendo a lo largo de su formación, una serie de competencias que permitan alcanzar aquellos conocimientos, actitudes y destrezas: personales, profesionales y metodológicas, que se requieren para el desempeño de cada una de las profesiones. Aunque las competencias no son de obligado cumplimiento dentro de la antigua titulación de Magisterio de Educación Física en la Universidad de Huelva, nace la curiosidad por saber qué competencias y en qué grado se están desarrollando actualmente. De esta manera, los docentes universitarios tendrán una referencia más objetiva partiendo desde la realidad del alumnado, incidiendo en aquellas competencias que menos se desarrollan y reforzando las que más se favorecen en la actualidad. La metodología utilizada fue la cuantitativa, utilizando el cuestionario como instrumento de recogida de los datos y su posterior análisis a través del programa informático SPSS versión 18. La muestra estuvo formada por alumnos/as del último curso de Magisterio de Educación Física de la Universidad de Huelva, docentes del Área de Educación Física de dicha Universidad y maestros en activo de la especialidad señalada de la provincia de Huelva. Palabra clave: formación, competencias, alumnado, Educación Física.Abstract: The aim of the new degrees in the university community has in common to require students begin to acquire over their training, a range of skills to achieve the knowledge, attitudes and skills: personal, professional and methodological required for the performance of each of the professions. Although the skills are not mandatory in the old degrade of Teacher of Physical Education at the University of Huelva, one must know what skills and to what degree are currently being developed. Thus, university lecturers have a more objective reference starting from the reality of students, focusing on those skills that are less developed and strengthening the most favored ones today. The methodology used was quantitative, using the questionnaire as a measurement instrument and subsequent analysis through SPSS version 18 program. The sample was composed of pupils of the last year of teaching Physical Education at the University of Huelva, the lectures of Physical Education Area of the University and teachers in active of the province of HuelvaKey words: training, skills, students, Physical Education.

El presente estudio analiza la actitud hacia la obesidad y el sobrepeso que presenta el alumnado de primer y tercer curso de magisterio de la Universidad de Huelva (N=299) comparando los estudiantes de educación física (N=123) con los de educación infantil y primaria (N=176). Este planteamiento supone una réplica de la investigación efectuada por O’Brien, Hunter y Banks (2006), quienes compararon la actitud hacia la obesidad entre un grupo de estudiantes de educación física y otro de psicología. Para medir la actitud hacia la obesidad se emplearon instrumentos explícitos e implícitos. También, se aplicó un cuestionario de hábitos físico-deportivos. Los resultados confirman que todo el alumnado presenta una actitud negativa hacia la obesidad y el sobrepeso, siendo mayor en los estudiantes de educación física, y dentro de estos mayores entre el alumnado de tercer curso. Por otro lado, el alumnado que muestra más interés hacia el deporte, así como aquellos estudiantes que practican más deportes, poseen una actitud más negativa hacia la obesidad y el sobrepeso que aquellos estudiantes a los que no les interesa o no practican deporte.Palabras clave: obesidad, prejuicios, imagen corporal, deporte, educación física.Abstract: The present study analyses the attitude toward the obesity and the overweight that show the pupils of first and third course of the University of Huelva (N= 299) comparing the students of physical education (N= 123) with the students of kindergarten and primary education (N= 176). This design supposes a replication of the investigation made by O’Brien, Hunter and Banks (2006), who compared the attitude toward the obesity between one group of students of physical education and another group that studies psychology. In order to measure the attitude toward the obesity, explicit and implicit instruments, together with a questionnaire of physical-sport habits were used. The results confirm that all the pupils present a negative attitude toward the obesity and the overweight, being higher in the students of physical education, and among these higher in the pupils of third course. On the other hand, the pupils that show more interest toward the sport, and those students that practice more sports, possess a higher negative attitude toward the obesity and the overweight that those students that are not interested in or don’t practice sport.Key words: obesity, prejudice, body image, sport, physical education.

The article is devoted to the consideration of ways to solve one of the actual problems in theory and methodology of training and upbringing — the problem of developing professional skills of future informatics teacher. As a way to adapt students to the profession, the possibility of their involvement in social designing was chosen. Participation in social projects contributes to the approbation and introduction of new forms and methods in teaching informatics. Expanding the experience of future teachers in carrying out large-scale events contributes to the formation of a socially adapted personality competitive in modern society. The potential of a social project in consolidating the knowledge and skills obtained during the theoretical training at the university is indicated. In the article, theoretical reasoning is accompanied by examples of real social projects and activities aimed at the formation of professional competencies of future informatics teachers.

Objectives- To understand how university libraries are engaging with the university community (students, faculty, campus partners, administration) when working through the strategic planning process. Methods- Literature review and exploratory open-ended survey to members of CAUL (Council of Australian University Librarians), CARL (Canadian Association of Research Libraries), CONZUL (Council of New Zealand University Librarians), and RLUK (Research Libraries UK) who are most directly involved in the strategic planning process at their library. Results- Out of a potential 113 participants from 4 countries, 31 people replied to the survey in total (27%). Libraries most often mentioned the use of regularly-scheduled surveys to inform their strategic planning which helps to truncate the process for some respondents, as opposed to conducting user feedback specifically for the strategic plan process. Other quantitative methods include customer intelligence and library-produced data. Qualitative methods include the use of focus groups, interviews, and user experience/design techniques to help inform the strategic plan. The focus of questions to users tended to fall towards user-focused (with or without library lens), library-focused, trends & vision, and feedback on plan. Conclusions- Combining both quantitative and qualitative methods can help give a fuller picture for librarians working on a strategic plan. Having the university community join the conversation in how the library moves forward is an important but difficult endeavour. Regardless, the university library needs to be adaptive to the rapidly changing environment around it. Having a sense of how other libraries engage with the university community benefits others who are tasked with strategic planning
