Publicación Acceso abierto A DFT study of the structural and electronic properties of cerium-doped zinc oxide(Universidad de Córdoba, 2024-11-13) Rodriguez Mena, Eimy Yohana; Alcalá Varilla, Luis Arturo; Casiano Jimenez, Gladys Rocio; Ortega López, CésarRecent experimental studies have shown that the photocatalytic activity of zinc oxide is enhanced when doped with cerium and that these enhancements depend on the doping concentration, particularly the highest photocatalytic activity rates have been reported for cerium concentrations in zinc oxide close to 3\% or 5\%. So far, there is no sufficient explanation for why the maximum photocatalytic activity rates of cerium-doped zinc oxide occur for the above concentrations. The main objective of this work is to try to explain those mentioned above. For this, we carried out a study based on the density functional theory on the effects generated on the structural and electronic properties of different concentrations of cerium in zinc oxide, and we found that the relative position of the fermi level could be related to the highest photocatalytic activity of the $Zn_{1-x}Ce_xO$. We also observed that the energy band gap of the $Zn_{1-x}Ce_xO$ system decreases when the cerium concentration decreases, which may mean that cerium-doped zinc oxide can absorb visible light. Furthermore, the progressive decrease of the energy band gap is associated with a reduction of the lattice parameters of the systemPublicación Acceso abierto A foreign language educator’s lived experiences while using technology in times of pandemic(2022-07-29) Díaz Zurita, Juan Sebastián; Hernandez Viloria, Maria Jose; Herazo Rivera, José DavidThere have been many challenges in education due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Communication and information technologies, however, have become hope amidst pandemic, as they have allowed the teaching and learning process to be developed. Remote education during pandemic has been the topic of many researchers to uncover the essence of teachers’ lived experience from various perspectives. However, little has been done on exploring the lived experiences of L2 teachers in school contexts. The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of English educators with online education in a public school in the department of Cordoba, Colombia. This study employed a descriptive phenomenological design. The researcher collected the data through in-depth, semi-structured interviews and reflective diaries. The data was analyzed through Colaizzi's phenomenological seven steps. The study found that remote education during Covid-19 implied encountering multiple mixed feelings and perceptions that were mostly associated with Covid-19’s obstacles. The integration of ICTs, however, served as a bridge amidst pandemic’s hurdles to allow the continuity of the teaching and learning process. This integration as result, provided new opportunities to discover new technological considerations and to enrich the participant’s life and professional aspects. This study highlights the transcendence of the participant’s perception towards the lived experience and the significance of ICTs in the adaptation process of moving from a physical modality to virtual spaces.Publicación Acceso abierto A personal leadership statement(2023-02-18) Ramos Musiry, José Enrique; Alegría Roqueme, Daniela Paola; Tuiran Martínez, Ana; Aguas Castillo, PedroPrior to anything else, it's important to note that leadership and empowerment are topics that have recently received attention from the community at large as well as from instructors and students.
