<p class="Abstract"><span lang="EN-US">The main purpose of this work is to establish and analyze the perception that students of the Degree in Industrial Engineering (GIOI) have about the subject Integrated Information Systems (IIS) in relation to the Task Value, and how this perception varies by taking a subject of the subject-matter analyzed. To achieve the objective, two surveys have been carried out on the students of the subject “Integrated Information Systems in Industrial Organizations” of GIOI. The first survey was passed to the students at the beginning of the course, prior to taking the classes of the subject. The survey was repeated at the end of the course, once the subject was completed, to see the changes in the assessment of the students. GIOI Students have a relatively low initial assessment of IIS subject, especially when compared to other subjects of the degree. However, after taking a subject in this area, its relative assessment increases, and its perception of Utility and Cost improves significantly. The course gets the students to perceive the IIS as something key for their future work. This did not happen before the course. Consequently, it can be concluded that taking the subject changes positively the perception of the students about IIS. Once this result is obtained and validated that it is positive, the research should deepen in which activities, contents or methodologies of the course help to achieve this result, with the objective of enhancing them with respect to those that are not so effective. This work allows teachers to find out the students' perception of a particular matter-subject, and its variation after taking a subject in that matter-subject. With this information, it will be possible to design and carry out the most appropriate teaching-learning actions to the given situation, to develop, as far as possible, a deep learning of the subject.</span></p>

ResumenUn gran número de estudios indican que la necesidad de profesionales con conocimientos BIM  está sufriendo un rápido crecimiento. Este crecimiento está dando lugar a problemas en la implantación del BIM en el sector, siendo el principal de ellos la falta de formación de los técnicos en este ámbito [1-4]. Las enseñanzas universitarias actuales, se fundamentan en la adquisición de habilidades por parte del alumnado. En línea con las exigencias del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior que denomina competencias a las habilidades a adquirir por el alumno. En este trabajo se trata de exponer la experiencia docente de la implantación de la tecnología BIM en la asignatura de proyectos. Esta asignatura tiene carácter obligatorio para las tres disciplinas del Grado de Ingeniería Industrial. El objetivo es deducir si el uso docente de la tecnología BIM facilita la adquisición de conocimientos y mejora la comprensión de la asignatura. La educación BIM debe centrarse en el desarrollo de los conocimientos básicos, habilidades y actitudes de los estudiantes [5]. Además, hay que enfatizar en la necesidad de que los técnicos de la industria de la construcción tengan habilidades como la colaboración, comunicación, liderazgo y la gestión de cambios, junto a habilidades técnicas relacionadas con BIM [6]. El mundo académico tiene un papel importante en la transformación de la industria impulsada por BIM [7]. Mientras que las entidades gubernamentales y el sector privado utilizan BIM para la nueva construcción, los programas universitarios han sido mucho más lentos en incorporar la tecnología [8]. Las universidades se están quedando detrás de la industria de la construcción en cuanto a la adopción de la tecnología BIM en la formación de los alumnos [9]. Realmente lo que se evalúa en este trabajo son precisamente los beneficios y dificultades que ha supuesto la implantación de la tecnología BIM en el desarrollo de la asignatura. Cuáles han sido los aspectos que ha mejorado y cuáles son los que se podrían mejorar.AbstractMany studies indicate that the need for professionals with BIM skills is undergoing a fast growth. This growth is giving rise to problems in the implementation of BIM in the sector: the main one is the lack of training of technicians in this area. The current university education is based on the acquisition of skills by students. In line with the requirements of the European Higher Education Area which calls competencies the skills to be acquired by the student. In this paper, the teaching experience of the implementation of BIM technology in the project subject is going to be explained. This subject is compulsory for the three disciplines of the Industrial Engineering Degree. The objective is to deduce if the teaching use of the BIM technology facilitates the acquisition of knowledge and improves the understanding of the subject. BIM education should focus on the development of basic knowledge, skills and attitudes of students. In addition, it is necessary to emphasize the need for construction industry technicians to have skills such as collaboration, communication, leadership and change management, along with technical skills related to BIM. The academic world plays an important role in transforming the industry driven by BIM. While government agencies and the private sector use BIM for new construction, university programs have been much slower in incorporating this technology. Universities are staying behind the construction industry in terms of adopting BIM technology in student training. Actually, the benefits and difficulties that has meant the implementation of BIM technology in the development of the subject is evaluated in this work: which aspects have improved and which aspects could be improved.

In universal algebraic geometry (UAG), some primary notions of classical algebraic geometry are applied to an arbitrary variety of algebras Θ and an arbitrary algebra H ∈ Θ. We consider an algebraic geometry in Θ over the distinguished algebra H and we also analyze H from the point of view of its geometric properties. This insight leads to a system of new notions and stimulates a number of new problems. They are new with respect to algebra, algebraic geometry and even with respect to the classical algebraic geometry. In our approach, there are two main aspects: the first one is a study of the algebra H and its geometric properties, while the second is focused on studying algebraic sets and algebraic varieties over a "good", particular algebra H. Considering the subject from the second standpoint, the main goal is to get forward as far as possible in a classification of algebraic sets over the given H. The first approach does not require such a classification which is itself an independent and extremely difficult task. We also consider some geometric relations between different H1 and H2 in Θ. The present paper should be viewed as a brief review of what has been done in universal algebraic geometry. We also give a list of unsolved problems for future work.

Nowadays, Information and Communication Technologies play an important role in the teaching-learning process. Universities have incorporated different platforms specifically designed to educational institutions; among others Moodle and Sakai are being used in Spanish Universities. In particular, the Universitat Politècnica de València has adopted the PoliformaT platform, adapted from Sakai. It consists on different tools that facilitate the teaching and learning processes and the teacher–student communication. It enables teachers to improve their instructional design and it is of key importance in blended learning and flipped classroom approach. Lessons is a specific tool available in PoliformaT, which enables the organization of the different educational resources. It combines lecture slides, video lectures (from the teacher or from others sources), exams (quizzes, self-/peer-assessment), tasks and so on. The extensive use of the online platform in the daily learning of the subject, by several teachers and different student groups, needs to pay special attention to the resources organization. In contrary case, the subject platform can become a mess, losing its usefulness. In this paper, the utilization of Lessons by students in two first course subjects at the Universitat Politècnica de València is studied. The teachers of physics of the Aerospace Engineering Degree and electricity of Electronic and Automatic Engineering Degree have designed the course activities by means of the Lessons tool. There are important research questions related to the Lessons tool: how often, when, and how students access to the different contents?, do they think it is useful? At a second level, one can be asked if student perceptions are related to learning outcomes. We will use students' learning tracks, student’s survey and scores to answer these questions.

The article substantiates the urgent need for the formation of import-substituting clusters in the agro-industrial complex to ensure food security. In modern reality, carrying out business activities, agro-industrial organizations are already using the advantages of integration to a certain extent, but at the same time, the key interests and guidelines of allied participants in entrepreneurial activities are insufficiently balanced. The authors have identified the methodological features of the formation of the subject of integration (agri-food polycluster formation), using the cluster tools of intersectoral reengineering. The basis for the introduction of the subjects of integration - allied participants in entrepreneurial activity - was their initial assessment and analysis of the factors and conditions of business activity, where the negative results of import substitution, which is an effective threat to food security, can be traced as much as possible. Evaluation of the target pairing through the integration of related business participants allows one to quantitatively assess the predominance of the target points of integration subjects - related business participants using information at the macro and micro levels.
