Se aborda la evaluación de programas de educación patrimonial, una materia pendiente en España. A partir de la implementación del programa Patrimonializarte y con el fin de valorar su eficacia, eficiencia y efectividad, se realiza la evaluación inicial, formativa y sumativa atendiendo a los resultados de aprendizaje de los 111 alumnos/as participantes. Se sigue un modelo de planificación y acción basado en el diseño y evaluación del programa que incorpora el trabajo sobre el patrimonio local y el uso de las TIC. Se analiza también la valoración del alumnado sobre la metodología utilizada. Se parte de la complementariedad metodológica basándose en el estudio múltiple de casos (6 grupos de 2 centros educativos en Galicia, España). Los principales resultados muestran: a) un importante impacto en la conciencia de conservación en el alumnado de educación infantil b) una creciente preocupación por el patrimonio intangible en educación primaria c) la importancia de la difusión para educación secundaria. El programa se considera pertinente, pues los alumnos/as han adquirido aprendizajes significativos para convertirse en ciudadanos que intervienen en el patrimonio de manera sostenible. This paper examines the evaluation of heritage education programmes, a pending challenge in Spain. With the aim of evaluating the usefulness, efficiency and effectiveness of the Patrimonializarte programme, initial, formative and summative evaluations have been carried out with regard to the learning outcomes of the 111 pupils who participated in the programme. A planning and action model is followed based on the design and evaluation of the programme, which incorporates work on local heritage and the use of ICT resources. The evaluation made by the students of the methodology employed is also analysed. Methodological complementarity is assumed based on the study of multiple cases (6 groups from two schools in Galicia, Spain). The main results show: a) a significant impact on the awareness of conservation in early years pupils; b) a growing concern for intangible heritage in primary education; c) the importance of dissemination for secondary education. The programme is considered relevant due to the fact that the pupils have acquired significant learning with regard to becoming citizens who intervene in heritage in a sustainable way.

The early years of primary school are important in shaping how children see scientists and science, but researching younger children is known to be difficult. The Draw-A-Scientist Test (DAST), in which students are asked to draw a scientist, has been one of the most popular ways to chart children’s conceptions of scientists and science. However, DAST tends to focus mainly on children’s conceptions about the appearance of scientists. To focus more on children’s conceptions of scientific activities as well as the emotions and attitudes associated with science, the Draw-A-Science-Comic test (DASC) was recently introduced. This study compares three alternative DASC prompts for two age groups of respondents (8- to 10-year-olds and 10- to 13-year-olds). The prompts asking students to draw a comic or a set of pictures produced significantly more sequential storytelling and depictions of science related emotions and attitudes than the prompt asking students to depict a story. The depictions of elements of danger, such as accidents and hazards in the laboratory, were also frequent in drawings with sequential storytelling. A more detailed analysis of the depictions showed that the frequency of elements of danger was closely associated with depictions of activity especially in the field of chemistry. For example, several comics included failed chemical experiments leading to explosions. Although depictions of danger are sometimes interpreted as a negative conception, in the children’s drawings the explosions and overflowing flasks were often seen also as a source of excitement and joy. Based on the result of this study, the use of DASC seems a suitable way for charting children’s conceptions of scientific activities as well as the emotions and attitudes associated with science from the early years of primary education until the beginning of secondary education.

The present article aims to compare the performance in students with Attention Deficit Disorder to those who do not present it, in tasks of reading comprehension and text production carried out by students attending the fourth grade of primary education. This quantitative, non-experimental comparative study aims to provide evidence regarding the way in which this condition limits the learning outcomes in the tasks of comprehension and production of texts, language, and communication. One the main findings of this research was that students with attention deficit disorder showed lower reading comprehension performance than their peers who do not presented this diagnosis. This same tendency was observed in the results of the texts production tasks. This implies that the disorder affecting the attention in students with it interferes in the process of language learning. This generates challenges and new questions for those who do research in this topic; and for the case of teachers, it presents new challenges when planning the teaching in order to adapt it to the specific requirements of these students in the area of language.

Resumen:La preocupación por el fracaso y el abandono escolar aflora cuando llegan los malos resultados en Educación Secundaria, pero creemos que el problema hunde sus raíces en la etapa de Primaria. Nuestra localidad ha decidido no resignarse a constatar las consecuencias del fracaso cuando ya es demasiado tarde y actuar donde nace y se desarrolla el problema, en Educación Infantil y Primaria. La coordinación y el establecimiento de unas metas bien definidas y claras han supuesto la base del trabajo comunitario en Atarfe. La escuela y los docentes han asumido responsabilidad para disminuir la tasa de abandono. La inacción de ambos no sólo no impide el problema sino que lo propicia de manera cómplice e irresponsable. La asunción de medidas concretas en el ámbito curricular y socio-comunitario ha sido reflejo de la decisión de combatir activamente las vergonzosas tasas de abandono y exclusión en nuestros centros. Consideramos esencial que estas medidas se implementen desde las etapas iniciales, donde realmente se fragua un futuro de fracaso. Las medidas expuestas en este trabajo se iniciaron en el curso 2007-2008. En la actualidad, podemos decir que la mejora en las tasas de absentismo, en convivencia y en resultados académicos es fruto de las medidas adoptadas. Abstract:Our society usually starts worrying about school failure and drop-out rates when they come to our attention as the result of the usual studies about secondary education, but we believe that the root of this problem lies in the primary education stage. Instead of just verifying the consequences of school failure when it is already too late, our town has decided to take action in the stages in which the problem originates, those of preschool and primary education. The communal work in the town of Atarfe has been based on the coordination and setting of clearly defined objectives. The school and the teachers have taken it upon themselves to try and reduce the drop-out rate. Not only does their inaction not avert this problem, but it contributes to it in a complicit and irresponsible way. The concrete measures that have been taken in the curricular, social and communal context reflect this decision to actively fight against the shameful drop-out and exclusion rates in our schools. We think that it is essential to implement these measures as soon as the earliest stages of education, in which children can take the first steps towards a future of failure. The implementation of the following measures began in the 2007-2008 academic year. Presently, we can say that there has been an improvement in truancy, coexistence and marks as a result.

El análisis de las competencias docentes del profesorado es una tarea preferente dentro de las políticas educativas de los diferentes países. Los docentes son una pieza clave en el éxito educativo. El objetivo de esta investigación es construir y validar un Cuestionario de autopercepción acerca de las Competencias docentes del profesorado de Educación Primaria, sustentado en el Modelo de la Acción Planificada (Ajzen y Fishbein). Para ello, partimos de un grupo de discusión y de expertos, posteriormente, realizamos los estadísticos Alfa de Cronbach, Prueba de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin y Prueba de esfericidad de Bartlett. Tras estos resultados se ha construido y validado el cuestionario definitivo, con una fiabilidad 0.917, dividido 60 ítems, con 6 factores, que responden al Modelo teórico propuesto. The analysis of the teaching competences of the teaching staff is a preferred task within the educational policies of countries worldwide as teachers are a key piece in educational success. The objective of this research is to design and validate a self-perception questionnaire about the teaching competencies of primary education teachers, based on the Planned Action Model (Ajzen and Fishbein). To do this, we started from a group of discussion and a group of experts. Then, we performed the Cronbach Alpha test, the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin test and the Bartlett test of sphericity. Following the conduction of these tests, the definitive questionnaire was designed and validated, with a reliability of .917. It comprised 60 items, divided within 6 factors which respond to the proposed theoretical model.

Abstract The evaluation of programmes is necessary in order to improve their implementation and development. This paper includes the results of the evaluation of a heritage education programme entitled Patrimonializarte. It was carried out over the course of one academic year with six groups of early years, primary and secondary schoolchildren from two schools in Galicia (Spain). A holistic conception of heritage was assumed, and the evaluations of the opinion groups were gathered, analysing those of 59 direct and indirect agents (teachers, families, local heritage managers and members of the local authorities. The data were collected via questionnaires with open responses and discourse analysis was performed on the responses. The most significant results show that: (a) the teachers valued the methodology and the objectives achieved extremely positively; (b) the families particularly valued the significant learning achieved by their children regarding elements of local heritage; and (c) the local authorities and heritage managers valued the programme as it has demonstrated the need for more collaboration with schools. The programme analysed has been shown to be useful, efficient and effective and has achieved a (largely unexpected) impact on the families involved and on the local community.

RESUMENDurante los últimos años se ha visto confirmada la importancia de las variables emocionales y de bienestar para un correcto desarrollo académico y personal del alumnado. Por este motivo ha existido un auge en las intervenciones y programas que trabajan estas variables. El objetivo de la presente investigación es conocer la diferencia existente entre las variables emocionales y de bienestar en alumnado de primaria y de secundaria después de haber participado en los programas de Educación Emocional Happy 8-12 y Happy 12-16 durante un curso escolar. Para el desarrollo del estudio se contó con la participación de un total de 574 alumnos de educación primaria y otros 903 de educación secundaria. El diseño de la investigación fue cuasiexperimental, pretest, postest con grupo control. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron los siguientes: CDE, CDE-SEC, STAIC, STAI y la media de las notas académicas. En cuanto a los resultados, se realizó un análisis de la varianza (ANOVA) con un factor intersujetos y un factor intrasujetos para cada una de las muestras. Se detectó una mejora en las escalas de competencias emocionales y ansiedad en las dos muestras, especialmente en primaria. También existió una importante mejoría en el rendimiento académico. Así pues, los resultados del presente estudio demuestran que el entrenamiento de las competencias emocionales en educación primaria mejora las competencias emocionales, disminuye la ansiedad y potencia el rendimiento académico, resultados que no se manifiestan de manera tan significativa en educación secundaria, aunque sí que muestran una tendencia muy parecida.ABSTRACTDuring the last years it has been confirmed that emotional and well-being variables are of the uppermost importance for a proper academic and personal development of the students. Thus, there has been an important growth of interventions and programs that train this variables. The aim of the present research is to explore the differences among emotional and well-being variables in primary and secondary education students after undergoing the Happy 8-12 and the Happy 12-16 programs during an academic course. For the development of the study a total of 574 primary education students and 903 of secondary education participated in the study. The investigation followed a pre-post quasi-experimental design with a control group. The instruments that were used for the assessment included: CDE, CDE-SEC, STAIC, STAI and the average of the academic marks. Regarding the results, an analysis of covariance (ANOVA) with an intersubject factor and intrasubject factor was carried out for each one of the samples. An improvement in emotional scales and anxiety was found for the two samples, especially in the primary school sample. There was also an important improvement in the academic achievement. All in all results of the present study showed that the training of the emotional competences in primary education improves the emotional competences, reduces anxiety and enhances academic achievement. These results are not that prominent in secondary education, but they show a similar pattern.

La educación patrimonial en el ámbito formal no suele incorporar las vivencias de las personas. Entrar en contacto con una comunidad que vive en conflicto con su patrimonio ofrece otra comprensión de ese legado. Para constatarlo, se ha realizado un estudio con un grupo de maestros en formación, de educación primaria. Se establecieron dos subgrupos para comprobar si la inmersión de uno de ellos en un espacio donde el patrimonio es una cuestión incómoda modifica sus percepciones sobre cómo enfocar la educación patrimonial (grupo experimental), frente al otro que no tiene esa experiencia (grupo de control). Se ha estudiado la localidad de Portomarín (Lugo), anegada en 1963 por un embalse, reconstruida con traslado de algunas arquitecturas y obligada a revisar su historia local y su identificación patrimonial. Se han utilizado métodos cuantitativos y cualitativos para analizar cambios de percepciones y diferencias discursivas entre quienes tuvieron contacto con el escenario de referencia y los que no. Los resultados parecen confirmar que la aproximación a un contexto problemático desarrolla la capacidad de empatía y argumentación crítica del futuro docente, y modifica su consideración sobre cómo enfocar su práctica profesional. Formal heritage education does not usually incorporate people’s experiences. Coming into contact with a community which lives in continual conflict with its own heritage offers a different perspective of that legacy. In order to verify this, a study was carried out with a group of trainee primary education teachers. Two subgroups were formed, one of which (the experimental group) was immersed in a place with an uncomfortable heritage issue in order to ascertain whether their perceptions were modified in comparison to the other group (the control group), which did not have this experience. The study was carried out in the town of Portomarín (Lugo), which was flooded in 1969 due to the construction of a dam and rebuilt on higher ground with some buildings being transferred brick by brick. As part of this process, the residents of the town were forced to revise their local history and their identification with their own heritage. Both quantitative and qualitative methods have been used to analyse changes in perceptions and differences in discourse between those who came into contact with the area in question and those who did not. The results appear to confirm that contact with a problematic context develops the capacity for empathy and critical argumentation of trainee teachers and modifies their idea of how to approach the practice of their profession.

Abstract It is with great sadness that we inform our readers about the recent death of Professor Stefan Ernst. Stefan Ernst was born in Piaśniki, Upper Silesia, on November 03, 1934, to parents of Polish-German descent. His primary education started during the war at a German-speaking school in Wirek and continued in Olesno, where he also got his secondary education. As chemistry studies were not yet available at the University ofWrocław in 1953, he started studying biology and switched to chemistry a year later. He received his master’s degree in chemistry in 1959, as one of the first graduates in that major. Then, he started his work on application of thermodynamics and molecular acoustics in investigation of liquid phases under the guidance of the Prof. Bogusława Jeżowska-Trzebiatowska. On 28 November 1967, he defended his PhD thesis entitled “Association-Dissociation Equilibria and the Structure of Uranyl Compounds in Organic Solvents” at the University of Wrocław. Professor Stefan Ernst was a linguist, a polyglot, a renowned thermodynamisist and a researcher of molecular acoustics. With great regret and shock we have learned of his sudden and unexpected death on August 03, 2014, in a hospital in Kraków.

Food insecurity dynamics of rural households in Nigeria was assessed using a panel data. Results showed that 44.4% of households that were food secure in the first panel transited into food insecurity in the second panel, while 32.5% that were mildly food insecure transited into food security. Furthermore, 25.7% transited from moderate food insecurity to food security, while 38.2% transited from severe food insecurity to food security. About 35.1% of households were never food insecure; 11.4% exited food insecurity 28.0% entered food insecurity; while 25.48% remained always food insecure. Having primary education, secondary education, dependency ratio, household size, share of non-food expenditure and farm size explained food insecurity transition. However, the likelihood of a household being always food insecure was explained by gender, female-to-male-adult ratio, marital status, primary education, secondary education, dependency ratio, share of non-food expenditure, farm size, access to credit and access to remittance.
