This study describes the efforts and outcomes associated with the establishment of a clinical sample repository during the 2016 Zika virus epidemic. To overcome the challenge of limited access to clinical samples to support diagnostic test development, multiple US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) agencies formed a partnership to create the HHS Zika Specimen Repository. In 2016-2017, the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention collected patient specimens (4420 convalescent sera aliquots from 100 donors and 7171 plasma aliquots from 239 donors), confirmed Zika virus test results, assembled 1 panel for molecular testing (n = 25 sets) and 7 panels for serologic testing (n = 92), and distributed the panels to test developers. We manufactured 8 test panels and distributed 74 sets of panels to 32 commercial companies, public health partners, and research institutions. Manufacturers used these panels to generate data that supported 14 US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) emergency use authorizations and 1 FDA approval. To develop a repository that can respond immediately to future disease outbreaks, we recommend that organizations pre-position procedures, resources, and partnerships to optimize each partner’s contribution.

Abstract:ART ACTIVITIES AS STRATEGY FOR THE TEACHING-LEARNING OF MATH IN ELEMENTARY EDUCATIONThe following research has the purpose to implicate artistic activities in the process of teachinglearning of math in children of fifth grade of elementary school, base on a constructivist paradigm. The methodology used was a multimodal focus with two stages; the reach is explicative to describe why does this phenomenon occurred and in what type of conditions it manifests. We selected as analysis categories: traditional pedagogical practice develop by teachers and the work with artistic activities in the city of Pachuca Mexico. The instruments employed for the recollection of data are diagnostic test, test after the application of the variable, interview, observation and notes. The application phase or the variable ended with highly positive results for the teaching-learning of math. In consequence with the students it produced a highly positive attitude in the learning of this discipline in a dynamic way. And in relation with the teachers it offers new tools of creative participation where the equity of protagonist exists.Key words: Teaching-Learning, Constructivism, Math, Artistic Activities, Multimodal Focus.Resumen:Este trabajo de investigación tiene como propósito implementar actividades artísticas en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje (e-a) de las matemáticas en niños de 5° año de primaria, basándose en el paradigma constructivista. La metodología utilizada es un enfoque multimodal con un diseño de dos etapas; el alcance es de tipo explicativo para describir porque ocurre dicho fenómeno y en qué condiciones se manifiesta. Se seleccionaron como categorías de análisis: la práctica pedagógica tradicional desarrollada por la maestra, y la implementación de actividades artísticas, en una escuela de la Ciudad de Pachuca, Hidalgo, México. Los instrumentos utilizados para la recolección de datos son el test diagnóstico, el test posterior a la aplicación de la variable (re test), entrevistas, observación y notas de campo. La fase de aplicación de la variable culminó con resultados altamente positivos para la enseñanza-aprendizaje de las matemáticas. En cuanto a los alumnos se produjo una actitud positiva hacia el aprendizaje de esta disciplina de una manera lúdica y dinámica. Y en relación con la maestra se brindaron nuevas herramientas de participación creativa en donde exista equidad de protagonismo.Palabras clave: Enseñanza-Aprendizaje (e-a), Constructivismo, Matemáticas, Actividades Artísticas, Enfoque Multimodal.

Conceptual Change Model

This study integrated cooperative learning methods in classroom instruction to investigate the effects on achievement and conceptual change in matter concepts involving 70 fifth grade students after 10 weeks of instruction. Data obtained from the administration of two achievement tests indicated that there were significant differences between the pre-test and post-test mean scores on the Matter Unit Test as well as on the Matter Diagnostic Test. Since the notion of status is fundamental to the Conceptual Change Model (Posner, Hewson, Strike & Gertzog, 1982) this study also investigated the students' ability to determine the status of their own conceptions. Analysis of the students' use of written descriptors provided varied evidence of their ability to use technical language (intelligible, plausible, or fruitful) and effectively determine the status of their own conceptions.
