Abstract Addressing the global challenges of climate change, food security, and poverty alleviation requires enhancing adaptive capacity mitigation potential agricultural landscapes across tropics. However, adaptation activities tend to be approached separately due a variety technical, political, financial, socioeconomic constraints. Here, we demonstrate that many tropical systems can provide both benefits if they are designed managed appropriately larger landscape context is considered....
As global demand for livestock products (such as meat, milk and eggs) is expected to double by 2050, necessary increases future production must be reconciled with negative environmental impacts that cause. This paper describes the LivestockPlus concept demonstrates how sowing of improved forages can lead sustainable intensification mixed crop-forage-livestock-tree systems in tropics producing multiple social, economic benefits. Sustainable not only improves productivity tropical forage-based...
Sign languages (SL) are the first language for most deaf people. Consequently, bidirectional communication among and non-deaf people has always been a challenging issue. usage increased due to inclusion policies general public agreement, which must then become evident in information technologies, many facets that comprise sign understanding its computational treatment. In this study, we conduct thorough systematic mapping of translation-enabling technologies languages. This considered...
Sign language is the natural for deaf, something that comes naturally as a form of non-verbal communication between signers, ruled by set grammars in constant evolution universe signs represents small fraction all words Spanish. This limitation combined with lack knowledge sign verbal speakers creates separation where both parties (signers and non-signers) are unable to efficiently communicate, problem increases under specific context such emergency situations, first-response teams EMTs,...
In his seminal 1972 article on academic advising, Burns B. Crookston set a prescriptive advising relationship in opposition to developmental relationship, with the approach proffered as better way of working students promote their growth. We argue that rather t han being incompatible ap proach is fact significant and necessary part thorough methodology, one which gives due consideration individual group differences needs. Additionally, it our position continuum, prescriptitte relevant...
TecDigital is the e-learning project of Costa Rica Institute Technology (TEC). This paper describes main characteristics TEC Digital as a successful case study integration in higher education Rica. In particular, objectives and organization, development stages, instructor involvement approach, projects training, institutional impact, conclusions future work.
Combining responsible forest management (RFM) experiences with literature reviews and stakeholder discussions allows an assessment of the potential role RFM in reduced emissions from deforestation degradation conservation, sustainable enhancement carbon stocks (REDD+). contributes to greater storage biodiversity biomass comparison conventional logging deforestation. Using adjusted von Thünen model explain land user behavior relation different variables, considering a general transition curve...
It is common that in the development of software usability tests are not carried out contemplating users with disabilities, even if these products oriented to this population. The evaluates ease which a user can interact an interface, why applying tools developed allows us improve usability. Inclutec group focuses on software-based inclusive technologies. For reason, designed and executed digital products, establishing specific characteristics requirements based disability conditions test...
Abstract Effective multicultural advising requires an awareness and acknowledgment of cultural differences a sensitivity to various individual biases.
Various areas of computing give importance to applied research in real contexts and aimed at improving the quality life people, especially those with disabilities. Research projects development accessible websites are an example. Some have focused on complying accessibility guidelines Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. However, content these sites sometimes causes little interest or rejection users software methodologies were identified that not very flexible expensive for...
The study of phonological proximity makes it possible to establish a basis for future decision-making in the treatment sign languages. Knowing how close set signs are allows interested party decide more easily its by clustering, as well teaching language third parties based on similarities. In addition, lays foundation strengthening disambiguation modules automatic recognition systems. To best our knowledge, this is first kind Costa Rican Sign Language (LESCO, Spanish acronym), and forms one...
Plan and take into account the whole picture of course before it starts, must be a prerequisite for instructors. At Tecnológico de Costa Rica, problem related to planning has been identified is low detail courses planing, associated with relation between content competences, evaluations learning objectives, there not logical flow on planning. Also tools used by instructors are well integrated their LMS (Learning Management System), which turns task difficult track reinforce. In this context,...
In the teaching and learning process, one of most widely used assessments under constructivist model is to work in groups. This has many advantages, but also weaknesses such as lack collaboration, poor organization, difficulty assessing, communication, among others. paper describes functionality Collaborative Logical Framework redesign made by TEC Digital Tecnológico de Costa Rica (TEC) which aims aid students teachers reduce problems that can be generated working groups, through a tool...
This work proposes an adaptive system using Bayesian networks to generate learning activities for students based on their course performance evaluation. Different are combined into paths in order reinforce student knowledge specific contents. The proposed was used a b-learning offered at the Computer Science School of Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica (TEC). For this purpose, prototype developed and integrated with TEC e-learning platform - Digital. Test results indicate that adequate...
