Infancia, ciudadanía y medios de comunicación- Texto de José Miguel MarinasAnamaria0303
Este documento discute el tema de la infancia, la ciudadanía y los medios de comunicación. José Miguel Marinas, un catedrático de filosofía política y sociología, argumenta que los niños son parte del mundo adulto y tienen sus propios deseos, pero que la cultura del consumo los trata más como consumidores que como ciudadanos. Los medios de comunicación también ejercen una gran influencia en los niños y promueven valores individualistas y de masas en lugar de permitir que los niños se desarrollen por sí mismos.

New challenges in interactive media & video game localization projectsVictor Alonso Lion
How are globalization, technology and the rise of social networks and virtual communities affecting interactive media localization projects? Globalization and the increased access to new technology have opened new opportunities but also bring quite a few new challenges.
The game localization process cannot be considered at the end of the game production cycle anymore. Code and content internationalization has to be considered since the very beginning of the design process. Awareness of international requirements needs to be present at an early stage of the game creation.
Of course localization approaches vary depending on the specific needs and the global ambition of the developer. New online project management and collaboration tools, combined with an easier outsourcing, makes the creation of global teams possible for companies of all sizes. Many of the tasks that big developers could only perform in-house, now can be taken care by all types of external vendors. Cloud computing and virtualization is an important enabler of this trend.
The amount of content that needs to be localized has increased significantly. Developers and distributors need to consider alternative approaches for different types of content. Wikis, Forums and online Guides can now be managed by the players themselves. Those who consider Crowdsourcing as a cost saving approach are failing, while those who enable fan participation and use this approach to create a sense of community are creating solid networks of contributors and buyers.
An easier access to international markets also brings new challenges. A direct translation is not valid anymore to engage costumers. Players need to feel they are taken into consideration in the games they chose to play. Culturalization checks are now crucial, not because of legislation, but because a crowd of game players is scrutinizing every single detail. Localizers and developers have to work together in order to produce a set of products that will please the different markets. Localizers need to be proactive and propose changes, while developers need to code with a conscience that their game will need local adaptations.
The session will explore the mentioned topics and trends and will provide guidance on what works and what doesn’t. The reasons why a new global, community driven, and locally adapted mindset is necessary to succeed in such a competitive industry will be analyzed.

The document discusses the fundamentals of creating a successful communications plan, including setting goals and objectives, developing a strategy using appropriate tactics, measuring outcomes, and using research to inform the plan. It provides examples from the National Portrait Gallery, which doubled its entry goal for a portrait competition, and the ASPCA, which exceeded goals for media coverage, website traffic, and new registered users from a campaign. The key lessons are that objectives must support business goals, measurement is essential, and research and measurement should inform strategy.
This document discusses the declining interest in engineering and science education in the US. It notes that the technology professionals of the future are currently 9-year old children, and advocates for more hands-on STEM programs to make engineering and science more appealing. Several example STEM programs currently being used in schools are described, including those using robotics and Lego kits. Data shows there are over 1.5 million engineers in the US, earning over $80,000 on average, compared to just 12,700 professional athletes. The document argues that corporate support for expanded STEM education is critical to address this problem.
This document discusses the history and principles of maker education. It outlines how maker education began in the late 1990s and early 2000s with the development of makerspaces, Fab Labs, and the first Maker Faire. The key principles of maker education are described as learning through construction, allowing creative failure, using both digital and physical tools, self-organized and peer learning, and working with adults on the same level. Examples are given of MakerDays events for children held in Austria that involve various making stations and have led to student-created digital products and improvements in self-efficacy and creativity. The document advocates for bringing maker education approaches into primary school teacher training and other adult education programs.
Evaluation Design for Learning with Mixed Reality in Mining Education based o...Martin Ebner
This document summarizes a literature review on evaluating the use of mixed reality tools in mining education. The review analyzed 45 papers published between 2015-2021 that described formal evaluations. The papers were classified based on their main research focus into categories like objective measurements, subjective measurements, qualitative analysis, and usability evaluations. The results showed that subjective evaluation methods were the most common, followed by objective measurements and qualitative analysis. Relatively few used usability evaluations. Overall, the amount of evaluation of mixed reality tools has been steadily increasing. The document discusses applying the results of the literature review to help integrate mixed reality technologies into a four-phase didactic framework for mining education projects.

It provides automatic scoring and generates reports on children's development levels. Initial testing in schools was successful overall, though some technical issues were identified. The new screening tool aims to improve educational support and transition schools to more digital assessments.
Speech-based Learning with Amazon AlexaMartin Ebner
The document discusses the creation of an arithmetic learning skill for Amazon Alexa. The goals were to create a skill for learners of all ages that teaches basic arithmetic operations through an engaging story-based format. Two stories were developed, one for easy level and one for hard level, containing riddles about math problems. An initial usability test with 5 participants provided positive feedback on using stories and riddles for learning. The skill aims to make arithmetic learning more effective and enjoyable compared to traditional training programs.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
