Purpose Difficulty in understanding spoken speech is a common complaint among aging adults, even when hearing impairment is absent. Correlational studies point to a relationship between age, auditory temporal processing (ATP), and speech perception but cannot demonstrate causality unlike training studies. In the current study, we test (a) the causal relationship between a spatial–temporal ATP task (temporal order judgment [TOJ]) and speech perception among aging adults using a training design and (b) whether improvement in aging adult speech perception is accompanied by improved self-efficacy. Method Eighty-two participants aged 60–83 years were randomly assigned to a group receiving (a) ATP training (TOJ) over 14 days, (b) non-ATP training (intensity discrimination) over 14 days, or (c) no training. Results The data showed that TOJ training elicited improvement in all speech perception tests, which was accompanied by increased self-efficacy. Neither improvement in speech perception nor self-efficacy was evident following non-ATP training or no training. Conclusions There was no generalization of the improvement resulting from TOJ training to intensity discrimination or generalization of improvement resulting from intensity discrimination training to speech perception. These findings imply that the effect of TOJ training on speech perception is specific and such improvement is not simply the product of generally improved auditory perception. It provides support for the idea that temporal properties of speech are indeed crucial for speech perception. Clinically, the findings suggest that aging adults can be trained to improve their speech perception, specifically through computer-based auditory training, and this may improve perceived self-efficacy.

El esclarecimiento de algunas de las concepciones que constituyen la base de los procesos de profesionalización pedagógica es un paso esencial para el éxito de los mismos. El presente artículo tiene como propósito aunar reflexiones que posibiliten un acercamiento hacia una concepción teórico-metodológica de los procesos de profesionalización pedagógica en la Educación Superior.El diseño y la puesta en práctica de los procesos de profesionalización pedagógica en la Educación Superior no pueden ser improvisados. Exigen, como actividad consciente, la consideración de determinados presupuestos teóricos y metodológicos que lo sustenten, y de su consideración como proceso pedagógico especial. Palabras clave: concepción teórica, concepción metodológica, profesionalización pedagógica.   ABSTRACT   Gaining on clarity concerning some of the conceptions that lie under the pedagogical professionalization processes is an essential step towards their own success. The article focuses on gathering insights that help get a more comprehensive understanding of a theoretic-methodological conception of the pedagogical professionalization processes in higher education. Both design and practice of these processes can not be improvised. They demand, as any other conscious activity, to take into account theoretical and methodological grounds and their consideration as a especial pedagogical process.   Key words: theoretical conception, methodological grounds, pedagogical professionalization.   Clarifying some of the concepts that form the basis of the processes of pedagogical professionalization is an essential step for their success.  This paper aims to join some reflections that enable the approaching to a theoretical-methodological conception of the processes of pedagogical professionalization in Higher Education.  Designing and implementing the processes of pedagogical professionalization cannot be improvised.  They demand, as a conscious activity, the consideration of certain supporting assumptions in theory and method, and their consideration as a special pedagogical process.   Keywords: theoretical conception, methodological conception, pedagogical professionalization.

AbstractVernaculars are increasingly used in media. They are considered to be stylistic resources to attract audiences and to construct media identities. That increase seems to be particularly significant in the case of youth media, which is also the case of Gaztea, a youth webradio station within the Basque public EITB group that we analyse in this work. Gaztea was created in the 90’s and, at that time, its whole production was in Standard Basque. In fact, promoting the newly created Standard Basque was considered to be Gaztea’s principal public service remit. Nowadays, however, the hegemony of that standard in Gaztea has been challenged by a more heteroglossic model in which vernacular speech is strategically used to empathize with the young Basque audience and to construct media identities. At the same time, though, the dominance of Standard Basque persists in Gaztea’s general stylistic design and practice: Vernaculars are excluded from writing, as well as from informative genres and serious and leading voices. Those are some of the conclusions of the research we have carried out on the distribution of vernaculars and Standard Basque across modes, genres and voices in Gaztea, and also from the information we have drawn from interviews with the managers of the media in question. Results from both data sources are important to understand the current ideological views Gaztea shares with young Basque people, as well as how Gaztea positions itself as a stylizer in the language ideological world of Basque youth.

Transfer And Retention

The article deals with the design of virtual reality (VR) interactive training as a teaching method and its effect on knowledge transfer and retention of students. The first part presents the methodology of the VR interactive training design. The second part utilizes the created interactive training for a case study to evaluate its effect on the teaching process and to examine the potential of VR interactive training as a sustainable teaching method. The study took place at the Department of Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Žilina. Volunteers were divided into two groups. The first group used VR interactive training as a teaching method, while the second group used the conventional method. Both groups then underwent tests. The main goal was to evaluate the effect of the VR interactive training on the teaching process in comparison to the conventional method while trying to identify the key elements of the VR interactive training design and its influence on knowledge transfer and retention in a sustainable learning environment. At the start of the case study, four hypotheses were formed, questioning the effect of interactive training on knowledge transfer and retention in the long and short term, and its overall influence on the teaching process. Obtained data were then used to evaluate these hypotheses.
