Has the educational use of digital technologies changed after the pandemic? A longitudinal study.

This longitudinal study delves into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the utilization of digital tools in education, particularly focusing on the transition of classrooms into digital spaces. Three years after the lockdown, results from 144 primary and secondary teachers who also participated in a questionnaire during the lockdown indicate an expected decline in the frequency of using digital resources, particularly in attitude and assessment-related activities. Furthermore, activities centred around verbal and procedural learning continue to be teacher-centred.

Teaching and learning musical instruments through ICT: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

The COVID-19 lockdown in education institutions required music teachers to use ICT to continue teaching. This research study, with the use of a Likert type online questionnaire, analyses the ICT activities carried out during this period and the learning conceptions they reflect. The questionnaire consisted of the description of activities which varied, depending on the learning promoted (reproductive or constructive), the learning outcomes (verbal, procedural, or attitudinal), the type of assessment to which the activities were directed, and the presence of cooperative activities.

Teaching and Learning in Times of COVID-19: Uses of Digital Technologies During School Lockdowns.

The closure of schools as a result of COVID-19 has been a critical global incident from which to rethink how education works in all our countries. Among the many changes generated by this crisis, all teaching became mediated by digital technologies. This paper intends to analyze the activities carried out during this time through digital technologies and the conceptions of teaching and learning that they reflect.

Melancholic major depression and epilepsy.

An analysis is carried out of a set of psychic phenomena appearing always in the same way: an experience suddenly invades the consciousness, unfolding automatically and with great intensity. This psychic automatism, of which the patient is a passive observer, is accompanied by an overwhelming feeling of strangeness. Our hypothesis is that these phenomena are the expression of partial seizures with a psychic content, and the name Paroxysmal Psychic Automatisms is proposed for all of them.

Epileptic consciousness: concept and meaning of aura.

This research is based on previous publications that have analyzed certain neuropsychological phenomena that always have the same characteristic clinical features: a vivid experience of sudden onset and automatic development, accompanied by an intense sensation of strangeness. When these automatisms are accompanied by only mental symptoms, the designation paroxysmal psychic automatisms (PPAs) is proposed, and they should be interpreted as partial seizures (PSs) with a psychic content whenever they clearly exhibit the four features of suddenness, passivity, intensity, and strangeness. This interpretation is based on the existence of a wealth of scientific literature indicating an overlap between PPAs and PSs; moreover, bibliographic reviews indicate that the clinical signs just defined as characterizing PPAs are precisely those defining the epileptic consciousness.
