Social Sciences - Medical: Health Care / Nursing | | Spanish term or phrase: articular/phrase | Talking about the decrease in non-university nursing training and the increase in university linked training:
"Este cambio de tendencia podria relacionarse al comienzo de procesos de acreditacion siendo los programas universitarios los primeros y tambien a innovadores modos **de articulacion entre instituciones universitarias y no universitarias**. Un ejemplo se da en Argentina donde la Universidad de XXX **articula** 11 escuelas de enfermeria de nivel superior no universitario y la Universidad de XXX mas de 20 pasando ellas a otorgar titulos universitarios de enfermera y licenciada en enfermeria".
I initially understood this as talking about "new ways of distinguishing between university and non-university institutions", but this does not seem to fit with the examples given. Am I misunderstanding the verb "articular" here? |

| | [University] integrates // [schools] converge upon: 11 nursing schools converge upon University XXX | Explanation:
Hi Judy,
I think that "integrates" would be a good rendition of "articula".
Another option would be: TO ASSEMBLE
Or, perhaps by using the passive voice ("converge upon") you get the closest meaning of "articula" in this context.
Good luck,
Elena

49 mins confidence: articulation / to articulate
Explanation:
An example of "articulation" from Social Sciences:
Problems of the philosophy of law > Various approaches > The theory of justice.
The theory of justice is concerned with the evaluation and criticism of law in terms of the ideals or goals postulated for it. This involves the identification and articulation of the values that the legal order seeks to realize.
