The XXth and XXIth centuries have been defined as the social communication age. However, Spanish primary and secondary education don't pay much attention to journalism as a subject and there is a lack of resources and teachers. As it can´t become a compul Mientras el siglo XX y XXI se definen como el de la comunicación social, las enseñanzas de esta disciplina en los programas de estudio de la educación secundaria, al menos en España, están muy atrasadas. Como la incorporación del periodismo como asignatura resulta complicada, porque habría que modificar los planes de estudio en todo el Estado, se ha optado por explicar los contenidos sobre esta materia a través de la elaboración de una revista escolar, destacando la reducción del fracaso escolar al favorecer en los alumnos los hábitos de lectura y redacción; el fomento del interés por los temas de actualidad o la potenciación de la imagen corporativa del centro. Se aporta un ejemplo concreto de lo que debería contener una publicación de este tipo para estimular en los jóvenes el interés por la prensa.

<em>The present study is a review of 36 empirical studies in Primary and Secondary Education, in Greece and internationally and aims at investigating: a) the benefits of student self-assessment, b) the contribution of self-assessment to the development of students’ skills to accurately self-assess. Moreover, this study presents the factors that affect student self-assessment ability. According to the main findings, self-assessment has been investigated more in Secondary Education. Furthermore, self-assessment has positive effects mainly on performance and learning in both secondary and primary students. Self-assessment ability and the factors that influence this ability have mainly investigated on Secondary Education with clearer and more positive findings, whereas there is a lack of research in Primary Education. In Greece, it was found only one study in Secondary Education that examines the issue of self-assessment ability with positive conclusions for students. Factors that contribute to the accuracy of student self-assessment in Secondary Education are the use of a video-based modeling examples, the observation of a human model engaging in self-assessment by students, the use of scripts and the training of students in self- and peer-assessment, whereas in Primary Education the social status, training and guidance in self-assessment and the entrance examinations affect self-assessment ability. </em>

Purpose No diagnostic tools exist for identifying social (pragmatic) communication disorder (SPCD), a new Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition category for individuals with social communication deficits but not the repetitive, restricted behaviors and interests (RRBIs) that would qualify them for a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We explored the value of items from a widely used screening measure of ASD for distinguishing SPCD from typical controls (TC; Aim 1) and from ASD (Aim 2). Method We applied item response theory (IRT) modeling to Social Communication Questionnaire–Lifetime ( Rutter, Bailey, & Lord, 2003 ) records available in the National Database for Autism Research. We defined records from putative SPCD ( n = 54), ASD ( n = 278), and TC ( n = 274) groups retrospectively, based on National Database for Autism Research classifications and Autism Diagnostic Interview–Revised responses. After assessing model assumptions, estimating model parameters, and measuring model fit, we identified items in the social communication and RRBI domains that were maximally informative in differentiating the groups. Results IRT modeling identified a set of seven social communication items that distinguished SPCD from TC with sensitivity and specificity > 80%. A set of five RRBI items was less successful in distinguishing SPCD from ASD (sensitivity and specificity < 70%). Conclusion The IRT modeling approach and the Social Communication Questionnaire–Lifetime item sets it identified may be useful in efforts to construct screening and diagnostic measures for SPCD.

The research presented below aims to describe and analyse the teaching strategies and supports obtained by teachers in the province of Gipuzkoa who sit competitive examinations to access the teaching civil service in Infant, Primary and Secondary Education. This study opted for a sequential explanatory design with 469 candidates. Teachers who have passed the official examinations placed special emphasis on the first test (theoretical part and practical exercise), took into account the criteria of evaluation of the examinations and prioritised issues such as attention to diversity, evaluation, the competence of learning to learn, self-regulation of learning and the design of teaching units. In addition, they received valuable help from relatives, people linked to teaching with whom they have a close relationship, and work colleagues.

The research aimed to explain the pattern of social communication on the issue of rejection of the PLTU Batang development policy. It used data on Twitter accounts involved in the rejection of the PLTU Batang development policy. In analyzing existing data, qualitative methods and social analysis networks were used. To see social networks in the rejection of the PLTU Batang development policy, the research used the NodeXL application to find out the patterns of social communication networks in #TolakPLTUBatang. From the results, it can be seen that in the dissemination of social networking information, the @praditya_wibby account is the most central account in the social network and has a strong influence on the social network. The @praditya_wibby account has a role in moving the community through Twitter to make a critical social movement. This means that in the current digital era, democracy enters a new form through the movement of public opinion delivery through social media. Besides, by encouraging the role of online news, the distribution of information becomes faster to form new perceptions of an issue. This is evident from the correlation network where the @praditya_wibby account has correlations with several compass online media accounts, tirto.id, okezonenews, vice, antaranews, BBCIndonesia, and CNN Indonesia.
