The analysis of changes in land cover and land use over time as sources of information and geographical diagnosis at a regional scale, is primary to improving knowledge of land cover and land use modelling in Mediterranean environments. The study…

Data mining is at the core of the knowledge discovery process. However, an initial preprocessing step is crucial for assuring reliable results within this process. Preprocessing of data is a time-consuming and non-trivial task since data quality issues should be…

La aspiración actual de la Educación Científica de enseñar a las personas cómo enfrentarse a problemas, de desarrollar destrezas de alto nivel intelectual al mismo tiempo que conocimientos específicos, queda reducida en la enseñanza habitual de la Física a la…

This work is focused on the study of digital newspapers interactivity, not considering the electronic versions of written newspapers, assuming that the new newspapers, which don't have neither tradition nor production routines in written communication, can fit better in internet.…

Para mostrar la contribución de la evidencia cualitativa a la práctica de la enfermería y la salud comunitaria, se hace necesario primero examinar lo que es evidencia y cual es la relación que hay entre la investigación y la práctica.…

This article focuses on learning physical activities on the sea and focuses on windsurfing. We highlight the construction of knowledge by students from the University of Alicante, studying the course called “Learning sea sports” in the natural setting of the…

Virtual and remote laboratories(VRLs) are e-learning resources which enhance the accessibility of experimental setups providing a distance teaching framework which meets the student's hands-on learning needs. In addition, online collaborative communication represents a practical and a constructivist method to transmit…

This thesis is focused on temporal information processing, which is a task framed in the field of natural language processing. The aim of this task is to obtain the temporal location and ordering of the events expressed in text or…

This paper uses dynamic general equilibrium and computational methods, inspired by the multi-sector growth model structure in Stephen Turnovsky's work, to develop a theory that unifies two of the traditional explanations of structural change: sector-biased technical change and non-homothetic preferences.…

The methodology “b-learning” is a new teaching scenario and it requires the creation, adaptation and application of new learning tools searching the assimilation of new collaborative competences. In this context, it is well known the knowledge spirals, the situational leadership…
