Los profesores de radiodiagnóstico en pregrado / Undergraduate Radiodiagnostic professors

La literatura internacional plantea un doble componente en el perfil profesional del profesor universitario: el conocimiento del contenido (content knowledge) y el conocimiento didáctico del contenido (pedagogical content knowledge). En cuanto al contenido, el área de conocimiento de radiología y medicina física está compuesta por diferentes especialidades médicas entre las que se encuentran radiodiagnóstico, medicina nuclear, oncología radioterápica, medicina física y rehabilitación. Por su parte, el conocimiento didáctico del contenido está enmarcado por todo lo que ha significado la Declaración de Bolonia (1999). Centrándonos en el radiodiagnóstico, los candidatos idóneos deben ser profesionales de esta especialidad médica, vocacionales y que hallen en el proceso docente de pregrado una oportunidad de transmitir sus conocimientos, experiencias y valores de una forma amena y comprensible para alumnos que se incorporan al conocimiento médico.(AU)

The international literature on university teaching, has insisted on the need to combine a double component in the professional profile of teachers: content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge. Regarding the content, the area of knowledge of Radiology and Physical Medicine is made up of different medical specialties, among which are Radiodiagnosis, Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Oncology, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. On the other hand, the pedagogical content knowledge is framed by framework that the Bologna Declaration (1999). Focusing on Radiodiagnosis, the ideal candidates must be professionals in this medical specialty, vocational teachers and people who find in the undergraduate teaching process an opportunity to transmit their knowledge, experiences and values in an entertaining and understandable way for students who are incorporated into medical knowledge.(AU)

Violencia simbólica en Instituciones de Educación Superior. Experiencia de docentes de una Universidad Pública colombiana / Symbolic violence in higher education institutions. Experience of teachers from a public university

En las Instituciones de Educación Superior (IES) se presentan algunas formas de violencia directa, aunque poco se han estudiado otras formas de violencia como la simbólica. Objetivo: señalar, a partir de las experiencias de algunos docentes de educación superior, las manifestaciones de violencia simbólica presentes en su lugar de trabajo. Método: investigación de corte mixto enmarcada en el paradigma empírico analítico. Se utilizaron como instrumentos una encuesta estructurada aplicada a 200 docentes y una entrevista en profundidad en la que participaron cinco docentes de una IES pública en Colombia. Resultados: los hallazgos develan la presencia de ciertas formas de violencia simbólica en la IES que se traducen, principalmente, en limitaciones al ejercicio del libre desarrollo de cátedra, restricciones para opinar o presentar los puntos de vista, dificultades para el reconocimiento de la pluralidad ideológica, tratamiento diferencial por sexo y escasa importancia otorgada a algunas disciplinas. Conclusión: las universidades son estructuras jerárquicas de poder sobre las cuales pueden anidar formas particulares de violencia simbólica que exigen estrategias y líneas de acción particulares desde la gestión humana.

In Higher Education Institutions there are some forms of direct violence, although seldom nobody has been studied other forms of violence such as symbolic violence. Objective: to point out, based on the experiences of some higher education professors, the manifestations of symbolic violence present in their workplace. Method: research of mixed focus framed in the analytical empirical paradigm. The instruments used were a structured survey applied to 200 professors and an in-depth interview in which five professors from a public higher education institution in Colombia participated. Results: The findings reveal the presence of certain forms of symbolic violence in the HEI that are translated, mainly, in limitations to the exercise of the free development of the chair, restrictions to express their opinions or own points of view, difficulties in the recognition of ideological plurality, differential treatment by sex and not more importance given to some disciplines. Conclusion: universities are hierarchical structures of power on which special forms of symbolic violence can nest that require strategies and particular lines of action from human management.

"It Is Time to Make Our Way Home" * : How Contingent Labor Practices Impact Transformative Possibilities of Teaching About Violence Against Women.

This article explores the intersection of teaching about gender-based violence and contingent employment. Drawing upon Patricia Hill Collins's (1986) theory of the outsider-within to illuminate how power differentials, access, and resources as insiders or outsiders shape knowledge production and ways of knowing, seeing, and being, the author applies this lens to the experience of contingent faculty. Relying on perspectives in feminist pedagogy, autoethnographic methods, and case studies of students studying trauma, this article exposes layers of personal and institutional brokenness. In delving into the connection of emotion and social structure, this article is intended for people interested in higher education's role and responsibility in preventing and responding to gender-based violence, the emotional life of the classroom, feminist pedagogy on trauma, mental health crisis in higher education, and overreliance on contingent laborers in higher education.

Academic dishonesty among academics in Malaysia: a comparison between healthcare and non-healthcare academics.

BACKGROUND: This study was carried out to gauge the prevalence of academic dishonesty among academics in Malaysian universities. A direct comparison was made between academics of healthcare and non-healthcare courses to note the difference in the level of academic integrity between the two groups. In addition, the predisposing factors and implications of academic dishonesty, as well as the different measures perceived to be effective at curbing this problem were also investigated. METHODS: A cross-sectional study design with mixed qualitative and quantitative approaches was employed and data collection was carried out primarily using self-administered questionnaire. RESULTS: Approximately half (52.5%, n = 74) of all respondents (n = 141) reported having personally encountered at least one case of academic dishonesty involving their peers. The results also revealed the significantly higher prevalence of various forms of academic misconduct among healthcare academics compared to their non-healthcare counterparts. Although respondents were generally conscious of the negative implications associated with academic dishonesty, more than half of all cases of misconduct were not reported due to the indifferent attitude among academics. Low levels of self-discipline and integrity were found to be the major factors leading to academic misdeeds and respondents opined that university managements should be more proactive in addressing this issue. CONCLUSIONS: The outcome of this study should serve as a clarion call for all relevant stakeholders to start making immediate amends in order to improve the current state of affairs in academia.
