The forms of citizen participation have been reconfigured in recent years. The presence of social networks and digital media in general have favored multiple modes of access to information, expression of ideas and social participation. A necessary reflection to think about a sustainable future requires an assessment of communicative practices in digital media and the challenges in citizen education that globalization entails. This research focused on the analysis of citizen participation practices of university students in digital media and its implications for global citizenship. A mixed investigation with a quantitative-qualitative sequence was proposed. In the first phase, a cross-sectional descriptive study was developed with 740 students from a Colombian university, to whom an electronic questionnaire was applied. In the second qualitative phase, discussion groups were held with 42 students, with the purpose of discussing the findings of the questionnaire from the perspective of the participants. It was found that the practices conducted by the students focus mostly on basic and intermediate levels of citizenship represented in the consultation of online information and expression of the ideological positions in social networks, with high limitations towards higher levels of citizenship referred to concrete actions to impact reality. It is evident that this difficulty in contributing to social changes in the world is due to the lack of education for critical global citizenship. Therefore, critical literacy for the use of digital media is proposed as a citizen educational strategy, considering that it contributes to the construction of a more hopeful vision of the future.

The present work corresponds to the report of an educational case at the Higher Education level. In this work, we have chosen the Catalysis concept, since about 90% of industrial chemicals that are used by the society, are produced by this way. The work, was developedin Catalysis research Group at University of Cauca, through the study of social problems related to global warming, Vehicule Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards Program, which is related directly to the use the catalytic converter and allowed to conclude that the use of strategies based on sts and cps can make the teaching of Catalysis meaningful for students, since it generates a taste for learning, it also allows them to know the social implications of knowledge and in this way learning will have an impact on his acting in the world.

The biopolitical control of the asylum seeker in the eu carried out by three legal mechanisms is analyzed: Frontex, Eurodac and the Dublin Regulation, and the resistance practices of immigrants to this control. Methodologically, a theoretical documentary review on biopolitics and a survey of 1 478 asylum seekers in Spain between 2021 and 2023 was implemented. It is concluded that this population brings together the elements that characterize Homo sacer and that, in response to this, they desecrate the control devices, generating a form-of-life in a community that extrapolates its own rules to the Law, as Agamben proposes. However, it is shown that this extralegal life is transitory and, therefore, does not coincide with the Agambenian ideal of the highest poverty but reveals its practical difficulties. The basis of an ethic of action adjusted to the reality of the immigrant are proposed, which goes beyond the Agambenian form-of-life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La transformación de los bosques causada por actividades humanas como la agricultura, la ganadería entre otros factores ha generado la interrupción del proceso de ciclaje de nutrientes. Por medio de la caída y descomposición de la hojarasca, las especies vegetales individualmente o en comunidad pueden contribuir con el retorno de nutrientes a los ecosistemas. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar la caída y descomposición de la hojarasca en la estación de monitoreo de biodiversidad en el centro de investigaciones Amazónicas Macagual - Cesar Augusto Estrada González, en Florencia - Caquetá. Para ello se usaron 20 trampas distribuidas en diferentes coberturas vegetales y se monitorearon cada mes durante siete meses. La producción estimada de hojarasca anual fue de 6.2 Ton/ha/año, de materia seca. En cuanto a la descomposición fue de 3.5 Ton/ha/año, la especie que obtuvo mayor descomposición fue Guarea sp. (0.76%) y la menor fue Schefflera morototoni (0.04%) por último la mayor biomasa acumulada en la cobertura fue borde de bosque con un 30% y la que obtuvo menor biomasa fue bosque ripario con un 13%. Poder disponer de esta información favorece la formulación de proyectos de restauración ecológica en procura de recuperar los bosques del piedemonte amazónico y poder hacerlo en la estación de monitoreo permite la evaluación continuada de dicho fenomeno.
