Publicación Gender comparative research on learning strategies applying the cognitive-motor model methodology and VISIR remote lab(Wiley, 2019-06-28) Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Plaza, Pedro; López-Rey García-Rojas, África; Sancristobal, Elio; Albert Gómez, María José; Castro Gil, Manuel AlonsoThe research work hereby presented shows some findings about the different ways used by girls and boys, at secondary school, to assimilate the electricity concepts and electric magnitudes to be able to design and assemble electric circuits. The methodology applied to learning, the cognitive-motor model (CMM), is also presented, and it is based on the mutual interaction of cognitive skills and motor capabilities. Students have followed a specific course designed under CMM specifications. The course contains a combination of theoretical activities and practical tasks by means of which cognitive and motor skills have been measured. To carry out the practical tasks, the Virtual Instrument Systems in a reality remote lab have been used by students as the technical resource. In the study, different learning strategies between male and female students, what affects each gender effectiveness, and learning performance have been found.Publicación European Robotics Week to introduce robotics and promote engineering(Wiley, 2018-06-28) Plaza, Pedro; Sancristobal, Elio; Carro, German; García Loro, Félix; Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Castro Gil, Manuel AlonsoWe present an activity framed within the European Robotics Week event. Robotics and computational practice are ideal tools for developing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pedagogy. A modular and adaptive hands-on workshop is described in detail. The workshop is based on multiplatform educational robotics content as a first step into the robotics world. Three educational tools are used to introduce examples of robotics applications. The operational details, materials, and examples of activities for selected modules are presented with the expectation that all teachers can adapt these activities to their classes. Despite the small number of students, the experience delivered results that might be useful for other instructors to promote workshops with similar or identical content to generate further benefits. This study demonstrates that it is important to combine theory and practice and include fun tasks that intertwine the challenges of applying theory to problem solving. Furthermore, the results show how the same content can be deployed using three different robotics education tools.Publicación Reviewing and analyzing peer review Inter-Rater Reliability in a MOOC platform(Elsevier, 2020-09) García Loro, Félix; Martín Gutiérrez, Sergio; Ruipérez Valiente, José A.; Sancristobal, Elio; Castro Gil, Manuel AlonsoPeer assessment activities might be one of the few personalized assessment alternatives to the implementation of auto-graded activities at scale in Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) environments. However, teacher's motivation to implement peer assessment activities in their courses might go beyond the most straightforward goal (i.e., assessment), as peer assessment activities also have other side benefits, such as showing evidence and enhancing the critical thinking, comprehension or writing capabilities of students. However, one of the main drawbacks of implementing peer review activities, especially when the scoring is meant to be used as part of the summative assessment, is that it adds a high degree of uncertainty to the grades. Motivated by this issue, this paper analyses the reliability of all the peer assessment activities performed as part of the MOOC platform of the Spanish University for Distance Education (UNED) UNED-COMA. The following study has analyzed 63 peer assessment activities from the different courses in the platform, and includes a total of 27,745 validated tasks and 93,334 peer reviews. Based on the Krippendorff's alpha statistic, which measures the agreement reached between the reviewers, the results obtained clearly point out the low reliability, and therefore, the low validity of this dataset of peer reviews. We did not find that factors such as the topic of the course, number of raters or number of criteria to be evaluated had a significant effect on reliability. We compare our results with other studies, discuss about the potential implications of this low reliability for summative assessment, and provide some recommendations to maximize the benefit of implementing peer activities in online courses.Publicación Overview of embedded systems to build reliable and safe ADAS and AD systems(IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers), 2020-02) Belmonte, Francisco J; Martín Gutiérrez, Sergio; Sancristobal, Elio; Ruipérez Valiente, José A.; Castro Gil, Manuel AlonsoAutomotive industry is a key sector in developed countries, taking advantage from Electronic and Semiconductor industries, for which this work is focused on, including an overview of embedded systems and related technologies for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) development, end user applications and their implementation (SoCs, Application Processors-APs, MCUs, software and boards), manufacturers solutions, architectures, trends and other aspects (like methodologies) to improve functional safety, reliability and performances. The current status to permit the transition from ADAS to Autonomous Driving (AD) systems and Self-Driving Cars (SDC) is also explored.Publicación Novel design and development of advanced remote electronics experiments(Wiley, 2014-05-14) Tawfik, Mohamed; Monteso Fernández, Santiago; García Loro, Félix; Sancristobal, Elio; Ruiz Larrocha, Elena; Díaz Orueta, Gabriel; Colmenar Santos, Antonio; Peire, Juan; Castro Gil, Manuel AlonsoThis article reports on the design and development of a new set of remotely controlled electronics experiments oriented to postgraduates and apprentices. Industrial-related issues are emphasized to allow understanding of the behavior of electronics components. The experiments are fully delivered online with a high level of flexibility. Remote retrieved results are provided.
