The political autonomy that has been recognized in Oaxaca for indigenous peoples and communities since the 1990s has been strictly limited to the head communities and the appointment of city councils. The foregoing has been accompanied by a series of internal conflicts in various municipalities that today are governed by uses and customs; however, these conflicts, in turn, are showing some potential to rethink said autonomy towards self-government or indigenous municipalities.

As a general objective, it was proposed to describe the educational training and employment situation of agricultural technical bachelors in the departments of Cordillera, Itapúa and San Pedro, between the years 2016 and 2018. The specific objectives were: to identify the educational training and to know the employment situation of these bachelors. It is a descriptive, quantitative, cross-sectional observational study, which revealed that young graduates in the departments of Cordillera and Itapúa, follow university degrees and are working in areas not related to BTA, mainly the female sex. Not so in the department of San Pedro, where there is a certain homogeneity between the sexes that continue to study and share the same employment status. It is recommended to further promote the management of knowledge and technology, strengthen technical training, encourage the participation of women and promote follow-up studies of graduates within educational institutions.

Translational research, in its regulatory function as a current policy for the research activities being performed at the Mexican Institute for Social Security (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social: IMSS), demands a collaborative work among people involved in the generation of knowledge and in those who consume such knowledge. Being an organization who has among its major objectives for almost 80 years the health care of Mexican population, the Institute has an important human capital represented by its physician leaders, researchers and directors, who, by working closely together, will be able to find a better respond to the health care needs of the Mexican population. Through collaborative groups, transversal research networks oriented to the priority health problems of Mexican people are being organized as a strategy whose purpose is making research more efficient and ensuring rapidly applicable results, in order to improve the quality of health care services offered by the Institute, whose commitment is primarily to Mexican society, although the results of this strategy could also be shown to the world, considering that the Institute is one of the largest public health service organizations, at least in Latin America, and its results could be a benchmark for the region. Collaborative work in research networks began more than 15 years ago at IMSS, but today it is being consolidated and its objectives are being reoriented, aligning them with both national policies and those of the Institute itself.

ADHD has a growing population of children; students with ADHD have difficulties expressing their emotions and acting in a selfregulated manner in daily interactions with their peers, teachers and with their family, some actions undertaken at school or family complicate the behavior of boys and girls (NN), excluding them from activities, labeling them as problem students and suffering the rejection of their own peers, causing childhood depression and discouragement from attending school, the above harms their socio-emotional education "these children are frequently classified as rude, making the child responsible and/or their relatives of their behavior as something voluntary and perfectly avoidable" (De Burgos, sf para.3). The perceptions of NN with ADHD are often not the most favorable to contribute to a Socioemotional Education that helps them exercise their right to education in harmony, respect for integrity and, above all, enjoy the moments significant learning that favors you to comply with the principles of the New Mexican School (NEM). The president of the article shares the perceptions that teachers have in the area of Socioemotional Education, with a proposal that aims to link attention to students with ADHD and meaningful learning as a pedagogical approach to the current curriculum. Returning to Socioemotional Education as a core area for all children, in particular for students with ADHD. The study shown below is a qualitative research framed under the phenomenological paradigm, it wants to understand social phenomena from the actor's own perspective. It examines the way the world is experienced. The reality that matters is what people perceive as important. (Taylor and Bogdan, 1987). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Located at the vertex of the Cuchumatanes highlands and the Sierra Madre of Chiapas, in this text we are interested in establishing the way in which, through anthropology and literature, discoveries have been made when reading a geographical space; furthermore, attracted by the connections between these disciplines, we discuss how in the 1980s, as part of a historical and anthropological project, literature was a source to observe this region of the country. We then take examples from literary texts that refer to this particular stretch of the border, which was defined in 1882 by the national states of Mexico and Guatemala. This exercise has an academic interest in that it deepens understanding of an anthropology of literature on the border. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Senegal is a sub-Saharan country that for some years has introduced the teaching of Spanish as LE, however, it has not been able to develop, effectively, due to the technological illiteracy reflected in the digital competence indices. Therefore, this work aims to analyze the digital competence of teachers in the teaching of Spanish in the African country to identify the existing digital divide and how it would increase its risk of digital exclusion. It also tries to propose didactic digital tools, that is, it offers an innovative proposal that promotes the use of new technologies in the didactics of Spanish in Senegal. From the methodological point of view, this is a mixed qualitative-quantitative research based on the Common Framework of Teaching Digital Competence and the questionnaire designed by the University of La Rioja for the analysis of teaching digital competences. As a sample, teachers and students of Spanish with a foreign language from the Gaston Berger University in Senegal have been selected. The results show that there is a disparity in digital skills, which promotes a digital divide and increases their risk of digital exclusion. Therefore, this research aims to contribute to the development of digital competence in Senegalese universities in order to improve the teaching of Spanish and the development of digital skills.

The study of the use of ict in education continues to be a necessary and transcendental topic, since it is currently perceived as a fundamental element in education in the 21st century. In this research, a descriptive study with a quantitative approach was carried out. For the collection of information, an instrument was applied that consisted of 15 structured questions with the option of diversified answers. The results obtained bring us closer to an understanding of what is the use of ICT in students of the degree in Community Development and Social Education in their role as community leaders and as students. From these results it can be deduced that, for the curricular use of ict to be really meaningful for student learning, teachers are required to include them in a systematic and pertinent way, both in their planning and in the curriculum.

Currently, children are subjected to endless labels because of behaviors that society qualifies as improper, generally they are compared with other children of the same age, noting that their behavior differs significantly from what is expected. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral syndrome in childhood and can continue through adolescence and adulthood. The manifestations of ADHD appear in childhood, and generate a series of alterations in personal, school and social functionality that affect the child's interaction with society. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between children with ADHD and their self-esteem. A correlational quantitative study was carried out using different scales to measure self-esteem in addition to carrying out psycho-pedagogical and neuropsychological evaluations to identify the indicators of abilities and behaviors that the child presents. The correlation between self-esteem and ADHD was found, among the main results it was found that children who present this disorder tend to develop low self-esteem, thereby achieving the fulfillment of the objectives set.

The following work deals with fratricide as a topic in Western culture and its role in literature from the different approaches in modern times. The paper focuses on the delimitation of the topic within Greek literature through the evolution of Oedipus' offspring', from Archaic Greek epic to tragedy. Thus, it starts contrasting the mythical elements that both, epic and tragedy, display as a support of each story. My hypothesis is fratricide of Eteocles and Polynices becomes a punishment to Oedipus through his exile, and that its consummation is in Euripides' Phoenissae, which I conclude through a comparative study of the sources.

Currently, the classrooms in Spain have observed the arrival of Chinese students under 35 years of age with remarkable digital and media competence. This has encouraged teachers to arrange new digital tools associated to 2.0 Web, so that this learner becomes actively involved in their own learning process. It is for this reason that this investigation attempts to find out the perception of media competence (MC) in this student community, which facilitates the development of their communicative competence. Data collection was carried out using the dimensions and indicators of media competence proposed by previous investigations. The quantitative and qualitative investigations confirm the importance of MC competence. In addition, the videos produced and the dialogue with the students allowed for improvement in their linguistic command and in their ability to learn to learn. This investigation is a contribution to the definition of a new profile of Chinese learners in the context of Spanish learning. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Internationalization, as a university management strategy, has become a fundamental objective capable to face the challenges posed by globalization. In this sense, the exchange of its citizens must be encouraged in order to build a multilingual and culturally diverse Europe (CEFR, 2002). Furthermore, this research is based on two binding elements which promote the process of interculturality: plurilingual/pluricultural spaces and mobility programmes. This research is part of a longitudinal study which determines the development of intercultural competence in mobility students, and it aims to analyze the development of intercultural competence through multilingualism and multiculturalism in university programmes. Twenty-eight students from fifteen different countries have been enrolled in these programmes at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC) and they have been elected by the model proposed by Fantini and Tirmizi (2006) which has been selected as an instrument of analysis. Subsequently, a mixed analysis was carried out throughout the Pearson Correlation, which allowed the proposed research questions in order to be answered. The author(s) conclude(s) that multilingualism is a relevant variable in the development of the IC. These programs also contribute to the personal and professional growth of their participants. This research aims to contribute to university language policies for language internationalization, through the design of mobility programmes which favor language and intercultural learning.

The in vitro transfer of genetic material to Bordetella pertussis, the etiological agent of whooping cough, is carried out by bacterial conjugation from Escherichia coli strains. The suicidal plasmid pSS1129 has been widely used to construct mutants of B. pertussis. This plasmid, in addition to having a replicative origin of E. coli, has another of transfer, which allows its mobilization from a conjugative strain of E. coli to B. pertussis where it cannot replicate and is only conserved by integration into the chromosome by homologous recombination. Additionally, it contains markers that confer resistance to ampicillin and gentamicin, as well as sensitivity to streptomycin, useful for determining the site of bacterial integration and exchange of genetic material. The nucleotide sequence of this plasmid is unknown. The objective of this study was to establish the nucleotide sequence of pSS1129, as well as to annotate the main genetic determinants encoded in it. The assembly of the resulting sequences from Macrogen, Korea, generated a total sequence of 9690 bp. By means of homology search in international databases, bla, traJ, aacC, rpsL and gcuP genes, replication ColE1 origin and RK2 plasmid transfer origin, as well as, the cos site of lambda phage were identified. Several unique restriction sites useful for cloning genes in this plasmid were also located. The nucloetide sequenece of plasmidio pSS1129 determined in this work, will facilitate its use in the design and obtaining new generations of mutants of B. pertussis for vaccine purposes.

This article analyzes the process of congregation of some Indian peoples in the Upper Mixtec (Oaxaca). It was a Spanish political instrument of settlement and colonization in America that was decisive for controling the subjected peoples, their natural, economic and religious resources, and with which the pre-Hispanic structures of some of them were modified. Contrary to the case of central Mexico, little attention has been given to this change, and possibly adaptation, process experienced in the Upper Mixtec, a fact which prevents the understanding of the historical evolution of their peoples.

Tropical pyomyositis is an infection that affects the striated muscle, mainly of the pelvic and proximal thighs. Seen more frequently in immunocompetent males between 2-10 years. The uncommon fact is the colonization of striated muscle, with the practice of extenuating exercise, as a predisposing factor. Staphylococcus aureus is the main etiological agent. Clinical presentation is characterized by fever, myalgia and functional limitation. Treatment includes antibiotic therapy and surgical drainage. Clinical case: An 11 year old boy, who presents with pain in the left inguinal region, increased volume of the ipsilateral thigh, fever and functional limitation. The patient usually practiced baseball every other day. Physical examination: Antalgic position of the left thigh, phlogosis in inguinal and gluteal ipsilateral regions. Paraclinics: Leukocytosis, neutrophilia, elevated C-reactive protein. Nuclear magnetic resonance demonstrates collection in pelvitrocanteric muscles. Antibiotic therapy with Clindamycin and Cefotaxime were prescribed with a satisfactory evolution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
