First Symposium on Artificial Intelligence for Mathematics Education. Book of Abstracts (AI4ME 2020)
The digital revolution that we have experienced since the last quarter of the twentieth century has had some influence, yet to be analysed and extended, on the way mathematics is made, taught and learned. While the rate of innovation in these technologies is growing exponentially, the potential impact of most information technologies on mathematical education remains to be fully exploited. In particular, several authoritative voices point out that the technology that will most likely transform education in the coming years is artificial intelligence (AI). Interestingly, today AI is mainly associated with technologies to automate tasks and lower costs, thus serving primarily the interests of ...

Engaging Stakeholders in Education for Sustainable Development at University Level
This book discusses the role of ESD stakeholders at university level, involving civil society and the private sector and public sectors (including local, national and intergovernmental bodies). In particular, it describes practical experiences, partnerships, networks, and training schemes for increasing the capacity of ESD and other initiatives aimed at promoting education for sustainable development taking place at institutions of higher education. In order to meet the pressing need for publications that may promote stakeholders’ involvement in ESD in higher education, the book particularly focuses on state-of-the-art approaches, methods, initiatives and projects from around the world, illustrating the contribution of different stakeholder groups to sustainable development in higher education on an international scale.
Salud, sexo y electricidad
En el mes de septiembre de 1902, la prensa madrileña exponía por primera vez en su página de publicidad un anuncio del vigorizador eléctrico de la compañía McLaughlin. No era un anuncio más. Destacaba por su tamaño, pues ocupaba un cuarto de página; destacaba por su dibujo, donde un coloso derrotaba a un león; y destacaba por presentar el remedio para recuperar la salud y la energía. La gran novedad es que el mismo anuncio se estaba reproduciendo en toda Europa, América y Australia. Llegaba así, de la mano de un aparato aparentemente eléctrico y teóricamente eficaz, la publicidad de masas a España. Prometía la curación mediante ondas eléctricas de enfermedades tan variadas...
The Prehistory of Iberia
The origin and early development of social stratification is essentially an archaeological problem. The impressive advance of archaeological research has revealed that, first and foremost, the pre-eminence of stratified or class society in today’s world is the result of a long social struggle. This volume advances the archaeological study of social organisation in Prehistory, and more specifically the rise of social complexity in European Prehistory. Within the wider context of world Prehistory, in the last 30 years the subject of early social stratification and state formation has been a key subject on interest in Iberian Prehistory. This book illustrates the differing forms of resistance...
English Pronunciation: A Manual to Understand and Communicate Effectively
La confección de este Manual se propone introducir la enseñanza y el aprendizaje formal de la pronunciación dentro de las asignaturas de lengua inglesa de la Universidad de Cantabria. Se pretende que el alumnado adquiera una serie de conocimientos esenciales sobre fonética para así mejorar de manera sustancial las destrezas orales (speaking y listening) y de forma global su competencia lingüística en inglés. Este conocimiento básico de la lengua, particularmente a la hora de comunicar(se) de forma apropiada, será abordado a través de una serie de contenidos que recogen de forma concisa y práctica los principales elementos sobre pronunciación, incluyendo las múltiples diferencias de sonidos entre el inglés y el español. La aplicación de este Manual no se restringe a los estudios especializados (ej. al Grado de Estudios Ingleses o la Mención en Lengua Extranjera del Grado de Magisterio) sino que es transversal a cualquier asignatura que se imparta en inglés y resulta de interés para la inmersión lingüística como complemento a la instrucción académica dentro del aula.
Essays on Risk and Uncertainty in Economics and Finance
This book adds to the resolution of two problems in finance and economics: i) what is macro-financial uncertainty? : How to measure it? How is it different from risk? How important is it for the financial markets? And ii) what sort of asymmetries underlie financial risk and uncertainty propagation across the global financial markets? That is, how risk and uncertainty change according to factors such as market states or market participants. In Chapter 2, which is entitled “Momentum Uncertainties”, the relationship between macroeconomic uncertainty and the abnormal returns of a momentum trading strategy in the stock market is studies. We show that high levels of uncertainty in the economy ...
Sample Size, Skewness and Leverage Effects in Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall Estimation
The thesis analyzes the effect that the sample size, the asymmetry in the distribution of returns and the leverage in their volatility have on the estimation and forecasting of market risk in financial assets. The goal is to compare the performance of a variety of models for the estimation and forecasting of Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) for a set of assets of different nature: market indexes, individual stocks, bonds, exchange rates, and commodities. The three chapters of the thesis address issues of greatest interest for the measurement of risk in financial institutions and, therefore, for the supervision of risks in the financial system. They deal with technical issues r...
Relaciones universidad-empresa. Pasado, presente y futuro en la Universidad de Cantabria
Las relaciones universidad-empresa son una herramienta esencial para el cumplimiento de la tercera misión universitaria: la de la transmisión del conocimiento fuera del ámbito académico. En esta obra se presenta el contexto institucional en el que se han desarrollado en España y se aclaran los tipos de relaciones, los agentes implicados, los objetivos buscados por cada agente, las barreras a las que se enfrentan y las maneras de medir los resultados obtenidos. Posteriormente, se analiza la historia y situación actual de las relaciones universidad-empresa en la Universidad de Cantabria, así como la realidad en las diferentes ramas del conocimiento. La temprana e intensa actividad en es...
