Martínez Granada, Liliana; Acosta Rubiano, Deyssi
This article shows the results of a research project concerning to the implementation of some workshops in which direct learning strategies (highlighting, take notes, grouping, associating, semantic mapping and summarizing strategies) were explained and implemented to students of a public urban high school in Ibague, during the first semester of 2014 to enhance the English reading comprehension. The population of this study was made up of students from 9th grade; one of the groups was the experimental and the other the control group. Data were collected through a diagnostic test, a series of six workshops with students according to the strategies that were selected and the progress test. Results of this research study showed that once the learning strategies were implemented, the most commonly used by the participants was the highlighting, takes notes and associating strategies. This was due to that these strategies not only helped them to understand better what they read, they felt comfortable and willing to participate, but also they changed their attitude towards the reading English process.
Legado de la comisión corográfica en un país de regiones
Ricardo Calzadilla, Patricia Ilse
For some of the citizens, the perspective that understands the regions as politicaladministrative entities represents a future which makes possible to solve the most urgent national problems. The management of the geographical places, as well as its human resources, has been and will still be a national public politics concern. This heritance has a solid foundation on the theories of federalism unheld from the beginning of the Republic, which crowning moment was marked by the XIX mid-century reforms. These political changes were varied and got practical transformations which had been wished by the liberalism defenders for so long. To make the desirable changes happen, it was necessary to get a better knowledge of the national territory and, thus, make the most accurate political decisions. For this reason, from 1950 the Chorographic Commission begings its activity and, with it, the country exploration in order to make more evident the way in which the national regions were composed. Such efforts represent a significant moment in Colombia’s history, from the federalism perspective, which seeked to legitimise diversity as a national dinstinctive feature.

Repensando el modelo de “Desarrollo sostenible”. De la competitividad a la cooperación
(2017) Torres Rojas, José Eduardo
The current development model, based on the idea of economic growth with the sole purpose of boosting the creation of “jobs”, and encouraging consumption, forgetting the boundaries of production limits and the fact that it is impossible to Infinite growth in a planet with limited resources, must be rethought in order to adjust it to an undeniable reality. Thus, a paradigm shift and work guides are proposed, based on previous knowledge and awareness of the sum of problems created by the current system of production and consumption. A clear gap of scale that has led us to create a technosphere that does not fit the biosphere, coupled with a manifest inefficiency in what is produced and an extreme faith in technology as a solution to environmental, social and economic problems, unaware of it The main R + D + I department that represents nature, which provides us with solutions to the vast majority of challenges. Challenges that thanks to anthropocentrism, we think to solve with our own designs. This makes a priority focus change, with a systemic and holistic eco vision, based on a resumption of ethics and values, where it is clarified that not necessarily growth should be associated with economic growth, much less think that the revaluation of the model Leads to a loss of quality of life.

(2017-08) García Riveros, William; Tibana, Nidya
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder based on multiple factors, so the etiology is still under discussion; many candidates have been identified as genetic risk factors to the phenotype, including the postulates in the meta-analysis. APOE gene codes for a protein involved in the transport of lipids being the variable candidate e4 important risk factor for schizophrenia and polymorphism VAL66MET BDNF involved in intercellular secretion alterations in the neurotrophin, postulated in association with the disorder. A systematic review was conducted through various databases, compiling 25 case-control studies related to the association of some of the variables to schizophrenia, under strict eligibility criteria, among them meta-analytic association was determined using the random effects model, for inferring the impact of the risk allele and the genotype at schizophrenia. It was obtained a slight association of the e4 variant in Caucasians. On the other hand neither the Met genotype carrier, neither allele Met have showed a significant association to phenotype, these results contrast the many contradictory studies published in recent years, thus generating overall result of the influence of genotype variants.

(2016) Hinestroza Serna, Antonio Manuel
Overview Chocó is located in the Northwest of Colombia, has a large expanse of rainforest tropical humidity, is the rainiest region of the planet, is the only Department with coasts on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, bordered by Panama. In these conditions, it has a great biodiversity, but in recent years the unfortunate actions of human beings have progressively affected renewable natural resources and especially the forest species. Deforestation, legal and illegal mining activity, the lack of effective controls by environmental entities, among others, have affected natural populations of forest species useful for housing construction nearly to extinction, as Truntago (Vitex columbiensis), milk part of agencies (entities), institutes of research and by the same State who have identified the problems that generates excessive extraction of these species, and that has resulted in shortages of some species, made that has been apparent in recent years. To achieve an effective development of research was carried out a literature review of documents and books related to the research. Visited sawmills, cabinet making, interviewed connoisseurs of these forest species and analyzed existing wood construction. As a result of the research alternative solutions to the problems, were identified in order to take or control the situation as wood substitute, ecotourism among others.

El reenfoque en la selección de proveedores basado en la gestión de cadena de abastecimiento verde en empresa textil colombiana
(2016) Ocampo, Pablo C.; Prada O., Ricardo
The logistics strategy must be the hand of a corporate strategic plan, which is vital for the development of business competitiveness (Velasquez, 2003). But beyond logistics, today is talking about the supply chain, the proper management of supply chain which involves permanent challenges for businesses due to globalization, which involves the construction of synergies between different business units and businesses, taking into account that logistics is working to put the inventory within the supply chain and supply chain is the collaboration between companies that have an objective and strategic positioning common (Bowersox, Closs, & Cooper, 2007). It is increasingly clear that if supply chains do not become more sustainable than they have been in the past, the world’s resources and the environment cannot sustain this level of growth (Chopra & Meindl, 2013, p. 501). This article aims to review the selection process and evaluation of suppliers in a textile company in Bogotá, with which it is intended to contribute to the improvement of the current process, through a proposal for inclusion of environmental criteria based on research by different authors specializing in management green supply chain.
