Risks in the Drug Procurement System: Current Issues
Get PDFThe public procurement segment is one of the components of the pharmaceutical market in Russia. Procurement of medicines and medical devices is the top sector of public procurement, both in terms of their number and the amount of contracts concluded. The procedure for concluding state contracts itself is spelled out in sufficient detail in the regulatory documents, but, despite this, risks may arise when concluding a state contract both for a potential applicant for a state order and for a state customer. The purpose of the study is to determine the possible risks when concluding a state contract of a healthcare institution for medicines and medical devices and ways to reduce them

Access To Informatıon And Use Of Dıgıtal Instruments In Educatıon And Student Opinions
Get PDFIt would not be wrong to say that a transformation has started in education as in all fields since the 2000s when the Internet began to spread. In the traditional education model, the student-centered learning models take the place of the teacher understanding that stores the information in itself, directing the student to different sources and competing with each student. According to Prensky, the generation of the so-called digital natives, who was born after 1980, has its own characteristics, its propensity to technology and digital media, contrasts with the teacher from the traditional education model. It would not be wrong to say that traditional educators, whose learning processes take place in the library environment, are replaced by educators who direct the students to digital environments where millions of information can be accessed with a single click and who design their courses accordingly. From this point of view, the situation of students' use of digital tools in educational processes constitutes the problem sentence of the research. The aim of the study was to determine the awareness level of students about the use of digital tools in education, to view the digital educational tools, to determine their feelings and thoughts against the course processes carried out with interactive course applications. The questions sought in the interviews are:1) Do you use digital education elements in the course? (Do you use interactive methods when processing your lessons).2) What is the use of digital elements in your teachers' course processing and homework project preparation process?3) Do your teachers use traditional education methods or digital education practices?4) Can you evaluate the lessons you perform in interactive environments? (learning gains, contributions to you)5) Do you prefer traditional educational models and interactive teaching practices? Why is that?5) What do you understand about digital education?6) How long have you been using digital education in your education?In this study, which was conducted in order to determine the students' opinions about access to information and the use of digital tools in education, it was conducted by using ‘’qualitative research’’ method with 10 university students. As it is known, qualitative research can be defined as qualitative data collection methods such as observation, interview and document analysis, and a qualitative process in which the perceptions and events are presented in a realistic and holistic way in the natural environment. (Yıldırım, 1999) The most frequently used qualitative method is interview. Interviewing is a powerful method used to reveal people's perspectives, experiences, emotions and perceptions. (Cited by Yıldırım; A Bogdan and Biklen, 1992). Standardized Open-ended Interview: This approach consists of a series of carefully written and ordered questions, which are asked to each interviewee in the same manner and order. (Cited in Yıldırım; A Patton1987, p.112) In this study which was conducted by using interview method which is one of the qualitative research methods, standardized open ended questions were asked to the participants and their answers were recorded and analyzed. In this research, the students' level of awareness about the use of digital tools in education, their perspectives on digital education tools, their feelings and thoughts about the course processes carried out with interactive course applications were examined. According to the results of the study, it is seen that the student profile, which meets the digital world at the time of birth, e-mails, chats, uses social media, and access to research resources in new media where information is used freely, is also prone to the use of digital tools in education. It has been observed that students prefer online, online and interactive applications instead of traditional education models
Problemas en el adolescente, mindfulness y rendimiento escolar en estudiantes de secundaria. Estudio preliminar
Get PDFThis paper discusses the importance of emotional education to reduce adolescent problems and emphasizes emotional competence and self-regulation as basic elements of competency education in the school context, based on research in recent decades, especially linked to the role of Executive Functions. In addition, some results of programs and therapies with Mindfulness or conscious attention to the present moment in children and adolescents are presented and the little presence of research is observed, even in Peru. The results of an ex post facto study are presented with a sample (N = 76) of IE High School students Jorge Basadre Grohmann from Trujillo, Peru, where is described the problems in adolescents and compared them with the capacity for conscious attention and academic performance. We noted that the students presented clinical significance in problems of self-esteem (25.4%) and depression (11.8%) and that there was few relationship between the ability to be aware at the present moment with anxiety (ρ= -,349, p,005), depression (ρ= -473, p,000), interpersonal problems (ρ= -,309, p,014), uncertainty about the future (ρ= ,421, p,001) and psychosocial risk (ρ= -,409, p,001). No significant relationships were detected between adolescent problems and academic grades, although associations between grades were observed. The article aims to makeanothercontribution for the study of the emotional problems in Peruvian adolescents and to promote the development of education policies based on emotions, a theme in whichthereisstill along way to go.En este trabajo se discute la importancia de la educación emocional para reducir los problemas del adolescente y se destaca la competencia emocional y auto regulación como elementos básicos de la educación por competencias, a raíz de las investigaciones vinculadas al papel de las Funciones Ejecutivas. Además, se presentan algunos resultados de programas y terapias con Mindfulness o atención consciente al momento presente en niños y adolescentes y se constata la poca presencia de investigaciones, aún, en Perú. Se presentan los resultados de un estudio ex post facto con una muestra (N=76) de alumnos de Secundaria de la IE Jorge Basadre Grohmann de Trujillo, Perú, que describió los problemas de los adolescentes y los comparó con la capacidad de atención consciente y el rendimiento académico. Se observó que los alumnos presentaban significación clínica en problemas de autoestima (25,4%) y depresión (11,8%) y que hubo relaciones bajas entre la capacidad de ser consciente al momento presente con ansiedad (ρ=-,349, p,005), depresión (ρ=-,473, p,000), problemas interpersonales (ρ=-,309, p,014), incertidumbre sobre el futuro (ρ=-,421, p,001) y riesgo psicosocial (ρ=-,409, p,001). No se detectaron relaciones significativas entre los problemas del adolescente y las notas académicas, aunque se observaron asociaciones entre las calificaciones. El artículo pretende aportar un grano más de arena para el estudio de los problemas emocionales de los adolescentes peruanos con el objetivo de impulsar políticas de educación basadas en las emociones, una temática en la que aún hay campo por recorrer
Representaciones docentes sobre las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) para la enseñanza de la psicología
Get PDFThe adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in education has changed the ways of communicating and building knowledge and produced new teaching and learning environments in recent years, but although they have been an indispensable component of curricular innovation, they have not had the expected impact on improving education. In this sense, the purpose of the research reported was to investigate the representations and meanings that teachers who participate in processes of teaching and learning psychology hold about ICTs and the experience they have in using them in their teaching practice. A descriptive and interpretative type of research was carried out based on a qualitative methodology, in which a semi-structured interview was applied to teachers who teach psychology contents in higher education institutions, both public and private, in the metropolitan area of Mexico. The results show that the teachers interviewed, in general, conceive ICTs as innovative and unavoidable for educational practice; nevertheless, and although they assign different meanings to them, they agree that they should be used with certain restrictions. Although pragmatic and instrumental use prevails among teachers, they believe that ICTs facilitate teaching and learning processes.La adopción de lasTecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) en la educación ha cambiado las formas de comunicación y construcción del conocimiento y producido nuevos entornos de enseñanza y aprendizaje en los últimos años, pero aunque han sido un componente indispensable de innovación curricular, no han tenido el impacto previsto en el mejoramiento de la educación, por lo que se señala la necesidad de indagar porqué las innovaciones por sí mismas no facultan a los profesores en los cambios requeridos. En tal sentido, el propósito de la investigación que se reporta fue indagar las representaciones y significados que docentes que participan en procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje de la psicología sostienen acerca de las TIC y la experiencia que tienen al emplearlas en su práctica docente. Se realizó una investigación de tipo descriptiva e interpretativa a partir de una metodología de corte cualitativa, en la que se aplicó una entrevista semiestructurada a docentes que enseñan contenidos de psicología en instituciones de educación superior, tanto públicas como privadas, de la zona metropolitana de México. Los resultados muestran que los docentes entrevistados, en general, conciben a las TIC como innovadoras e inevitables para la práctica educativa; no obstante, y aunque le asignan diferentes significados, coinciden en que deben emplearse con ciertas restricciones. Si bien prevalece un uso pragmático e instrumental entre los docentes, consideran que las TIC facilitan los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje.

Hacia un marco para los MOOC de idiomas y el aprendizaje de idiomas con asistencia móvil
Get PDFIn this article a proposal is presented for a theoretical framework that could provide the structure and coherence needed for the development of effective LMOOCs (Language MOOCs) and MALL (Mobile Assisted Language Learning) apps in a systematic way that would facilitate online second language learning. The framework is argued to be appropriate for language teaching and learning since it could be used for the elaboration of online courses such as LMOOCs and syllabi and didactic materials for MALL apps, regardless of the number of students. It has been refined during the process of designing and developing a Professional English LMOOC and the examples provided here are from that course. The framework is built upon the CEFR (The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment) since it offers a way to structure the knowledge and skills required in second language learning in a way which is coherent with the constructivist paradigm, following widely accepted European recommendations. It has been adopted because it provides a notional-functional classification of language use and learning (“elegantly” capturing the vastness and complexity of languages and their functional nature), and it is the first general attempt to produce a taxonomy of the elements that intervene in language use and learning, enabling comparable syllabi to be created for all European languages.En este artículo, se presenta una propuesta para un marco teórico que podría proporcionar la estructura y la coherencia necesarias para el desarrollo de aplicaciones eficaces de LMOOC (Language MOOC) y MALL (Mobile Assisted Language Learning) de una manera sistemática que facilite el aprendizaje en línea de un segundo idioma. Se argumenta que el marco es apropiado para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de idiomas, ya que podría usarse para la elaboración de cursos en línea como LMOOC y programasde estudio y materiales didácticos para aplicaciones MALL, independientemente del número de estudiantes. Se ha perfeccionado durante el proceso de diseño y desarrollo de un LMOOC de inglés profesional y los ejemplos que se proporcionan aquí son de ese curso. El marco se basa en el MCER (Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las Lenguas: Aprendizaje, Enseñanza, Evaluación), ya que ofrece una forma de estructurar el conocimiento y las habilidades requeridas en el aprendizaje de una segunda lengua de manera coherente con el paradigma constructivista. siguiendo recomendaciones europeas ampliamente aceptadas. Se ha adoptado porque proporciona una clasificación nocional funcional del uso y aprendizaje del lenguaje (captura "elegante" la inmensidad y complejidad de los idiomas y su naturaleza funcional), y es el primer intento general de producir una taxonomía de los elementos que intervienen en el uso y aprendizaje de idiomas, lo que permite crear programas de estudio comparables para todos los idiomas europeos

Investigando los efectos del desarrollo cognitivo y físico en la educación infantil
Get PDFThe article considers the relationship of physical and cognitive development of children as well as the processes of memory and attention. They determine the readiness of a child for school education. The analysis of existing theories made it possible to single out the conditions for their development. There was conducted a study to check the level of memory and attention development of 6-7-year-old children. Diagnostic results showed that the vast majority of children showed an average level of memorization, and a low level of attention development. The results of the diagnosis confirmed that the features of the mental development of the preschoolers do not allow a child to fix attention on subjects or actions for a long time, to maintain interest in the performed action. Physical development of children is at the average level. Unified patterns between the general level of mental development and the development of certain types of movements were revealed. Specially organized physical activity for children with a selection of exercises that require concentration of attention, memorizing patterns of movement, coordination will contribute to the development of memory and attention.El artículo considera la relación del desarrollo físico y cognitivo de los niños, así como los procesos de memoria y atención. Determinan la preparación de un niño para la educación escolar. El análisis de las teorías existentes permitió identificar las condiciones para su desarrollo. Se realizó un estudio para verificar el nivel de memoria y el desarrollo de la atención de niños de 6 a 7 años.Los resultados del diagnóstico mostraron que la gran mayoría de los niños mostraron un nivel promedio de memorización y un bajo nivel de desarrollo de la atención.
