Por eso, el presente trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar una propuesta didáctica basada en el uso de las TIC como estrategia metodológica y herramienta para la valoración y realización de programas de entrenamiento dentro del marco curricular de la etapa educativa Formación Profesional del Técnico Superior en Acondicionamiento Físico. Esta propuesta estará compuesta por siete sesiones para la asignatura de “Valoración de la condición Física e intervención en accidentes” donde manejarán herramientas digitales que favorezcan el desarrollo de sus objetivos y competencias e integración en el mercado profesional.

Data Quality and Network Considerations for Mobile Contact Tracing and Health Monitoring

Machine Learning (ML) has been a useful tool for scientific advancement during the COVID-19 pandemic. Contact tracing apps are just one area reaping the benefits, as ML can use location and health data from these apps to forecast virus spread, predict “hotspots,” and identify vulnerable groups. However, to do so, it is first important to ensure that the dataset these apps yield is accurate, free of biases, and reliable, as any flaw can directly influence ML predictions. Given the lack of criteria to help ensure this, we present two requirements for those exploring using ML to follow. The requirements we presented work to uphold international data quality standards put forth for ML. We then identify where our requirements can be met, as countries have varying contact tracing apps and smartphone usages. Lastly, the advantages, limitations, and ethical considerations of our approach are discussed.

Afghan scientists fear for the future

Many Afghan scientists fear they are at risk of retaliation from the Taliban, who have said their values do not lie with scientific advancement.

Place of neuroscience in Indian juvenile justice

Youths are important assets of a country. To realise the full potential of youth, the law is an instrument. Youth delinquency impedes his development. The response of the law is both a carrot and stick approach so far. While a host of disciplines try to understand youths, their behaviours, science, more particularly neuroscience, has its relevance. This paper makes an exploration of normative position and recent scientific advancement to understand a juvenile and his delinquency. The paper adopts the exploratory method on the status of values on juvenile justice in Constitutional and legislative norms in India and cognitive and developmental neuroscience. The paper concludes with a perspective on the scientific orientation of juvenile’s responsibility and reform.

Three for me and none for you? An ethical argument for delaying COVID-19 boosters

This paper argues in support of the WHO’s proposal to forego COVID-19 booster shots until 10% of people in every country are fully vaccinated. The Ethical Argument section shows that we save the most lives and ensure the least amount of suffering by allocating doses first to unvaccinated people. It also argues that there is a duty to support decent lives and to promote health equity, which establish that refraining from boosters is a requirement of justice, not charity. The Replies to Objections section answers objections that appeal to pragmatism, nationalism, ownership, scientific advancement, self-interest, semantics and futility. The Conclusion section emphasizes that for now, wealthy nations should not boost vaccinated people’s immunity and should instead send doses to poorer nations where they are most urgently needed.

THE STYLE OF THINKING ACTIVITY OF MODERN YOUTH AS A SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL PROBLEM

The statistic is based on the state of the art of scientific advancement in the style of misinformation of the modern student youth. The style of the target is to be seen as a system of intellectual strategies, priyom, a quick reference to the operation of a specialty, how to be victorious with it in a target performance. To respect the links to the style of the targeting from the cognitive style as the way of receiving and processing information. It is to be determined that the effectiveness of the educational performance of students is significant because of the fact that the methodology of victoriousness will be the same because of the dominant style characteristics of their thinking acyivity. Respect for class is characteristic of the specialty of the style of thinking of the current student youth. It is emphasized that the tendency to reproduce heterogeneous objects, without coherent elements between them, which are characterized by illogicality, heterogeneity and high speed of switching between pieces of information, leads to difficulties in forming the desired quality of students' thinking – criticality as the ability to assess reliability, accuracy or values of something, the ability to search for and find causes and alternative points of view, to perceive the situation as a whole or to change one's position on the basis of facts and arguments. It is noted that in order to optimize the educational process in university it is necessary to select such teaching methods that would ensure the effectiveness of the thinking process of students.

A Review on the Production Methods and Applications of Graphene-Based Materials

Graphene-based materials in the form of fibres, fabrics, films, and composite materials are the most widely investigated research domains because of their remarkable physicochemical and thermomechanical properties. In this era of scientific advancement, graphene has built the foundation of a new horizon of possibilities and received tremendous research focus in several application areas such as aerospace, energy, transportation, healthcare, agriculture, wastewater management, and wearable technology. Although graphene has been found to provide exceptional results in every application field, a massive proportion of research is still underway to configure required parameters to ensure the best possible outcomes from graphene-based materials. Until now, several review articles have been published to summarise the excellence of graphene and its derivatives, which focused mainly on a single application area of graphene. However, no single review is found to comprehensively study most used fabrication processes of graphene-based materials including their diversified and potential application areas. To address this genuine gap and ensure wider support for the upcoming research and investigations of this excellent material, this review aims to provide a snapshot of most used fabrication methods of graphene-based materials in the form of pure and composite fibres, graphene-based composite materials conjugated with polymers, and fibres. This study also provides a clear perspective of large-scale production feasibility and application areas of graphene-based materials in all forms.

Reproducibility, scientific rigor and responsibility

Data credibility is very important for scientific advancement; however, experiments in biomedical research are not always reproducible.

Developing a Philosophy of Scientific Advancement in Muhammadiyah Higher Education Institutions Based on Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan (AIK) Principles

This article addresses critical ideas about constructing scientific philosophy within the Muhammadiyah and ‘Aisyiyah Higher Learning Institutions (PTMA) circles through the concept of integrating Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan (Islam and Muhammadiyah Principles), abbreviated as AIK, into the process of developing knowledge and science. Thus, the author provides a broad definition of AIK and distinguishes it into three main aspects. In the next step, the author explains two reasons for developing scientific philosophy in PTMA, including internal reasons in Muhammadiyah and Islam and external ones related to the development of modern science. Consequently, two approaches can be applied to integrate AIK into scientific development through objective and subjective approaches. In definition, the objective approach is a way of dealing with the issues through analyzing and re-building the structure of science it including paradigm (ontology), theories and methods (epistemology), and applications (axiology). In contrast, the subjective approach is the enrichment of the scientist through considering science and religion as complementary instead of contradictory.
