Nueva mirada, otro lenguaje, otro lente: cuando la cámara la maneja una mujer

Abstract: Resumen En el siguiente articulo pretendemos repensar el cine dirigido por mujeres y analizar la produccion artistica de las cineastas neuquinas, en particular algunos de sus cortometrajes en que centran sus miradas en las mujeres. Examinamos tres film de 10 a 15 minutos de duracion, en los cuales observamos en especial: las tematicas que abordan, desde que lugar enfocan el lente, con que atributos presentan a las protagonistas, que tratamiento le dan a los personajes en general. Los cortos seleccionados para el analisis estan construidos desde un enfoque feminista. Sin embargo, estas son algunas excepciones en la produccion de las directoras presentadas, puesto que el resto de su cine y tambien, de otras colegas, repiten en general el cannon masculino, aunque percibimos que cuando la camara la maneja una mujer existen, tenues indicadores femeninos.

Determinación y análisis de áreas de potencial conflicto en el uso del suelo en el ejido municipal de San Carlos de Bariloche, Río Negro, Patagonia, Argentina, utilizando la tecnología de los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG)

Abstract: The objective of this thesis is to identify and analyze suitable potential urban areas to develop primary production activities, urban use expansion as well as nature conservation features through continuous mapping of competence which on combination tend to locate possible conflictual areas among the urban activities mentioned in San Carlos de Bariloche City.The method of Multi-Criteria-Evaluation (MCE) joined to the Geographic Information System (GIS) provides the right framework for integrating environmental, economic and social factors involved in the soil competence for each activity. The MCE allowed to correctly simulate the spatial patterns of the real evolutionary development on the object of research, urban environment, identifying and assessing each alternative, consulting experts and re-orientating the assessment itself while keeping its aim throughout the decision-making process.The standard resolution model applied, called Land Use Conflict Identification Strategy (L.U.C.I.S.) was proposed in this thesis as a new progress in spatial analysis and it allowed the detection of potential conflictual areas from a study of localization providing and early picture of the changes in the use of land and previewing those possible future conflicts.Finally, it has been proved that the combination of MCE and the L.U.C.I .S. as part of a GIS becomes an interesting tool at complex situational analysis. These methods are functionally useful in regional environmental planning processes management and decision making on terms of sustainable development.Revista Ciencias Espaciales, Volumen 8, Numero 2 Otono, 2015; 227-242

Empowering Multilingual Learners Through Critical Liberating Literacy Practices in English-Dominated Speech Communities

Abstract: This chapter explores the nuances of critical literacy reviewing the influence of the sociocultural context and the critical element that arises from the individuals who negotiate their identities as they interact with others in a variety of settings. The perspective adopted here focuses on multilingual learners as they engage in literacy practices in English, the dominant language, within schooled environments resulting in hybrid productions within a Third Space, which is a metaphorical setting that promotes expansive learning. Such literacy productions consider the lived-in experiences of the individuals and their personal histories as tools for learning with the potential to liberate themselves from the dominant literacy practices. The chapter includes a discussion of the role and status of English to empower non-dominant groups within English-speaking settings.
