Book L   ducation d homo sapiens

Download or read book L ducation d homo sapiens written by Nicole Péruisset-Fache and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2007-09-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plus que jamais l'éducation se trouve au centre des préoccupations des humains. Pour autant l'histoire récente se caractérise par toujours plus de violence et de folie. Est-ce à dire que l'éducation d'homo sapiens, l'homme sage, a fait fausse route? Est-ce à dire que la tradition humaniste, qui nous vient des mondes antiques, s'est trouvée dévoyée par la logique capitaliste, laquelle subvertit toutes les valeurs sur son passage?

Book Homo sapiens technologicus

Download or read book Homo sapiens technologicus written by Michel Puech and published by Le Pommier. This book was released on 2015-10-06T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le monde change vite, si vite. Et nous changeons aussi. Ne sommes-nous pas devenus une espèce nouvelle, Homo sapiens technologicus ? Car, pour habiter le monde d’aujourd’hui, il ne suffit pas à Homo d’être technologicus, de coévoluer avec ses techniques, il lui faut aussi être sapiens, sage : le monde que nous avons fabriqué nous met au défi d’être à la hauteur de nos exploits techniques. Comment faire ? Car nous sommes écartelés entre les promesses vertigineuses d’un monde nouveau, et les désuétudes, les fonctionnements anciens du vieux monde, qui nous engluent dans un univers aux références dépassées. Les institutions, culturelles et médiatiques, politiques et économiques, nous en offrent chaque jour de désolantes illustrations. Comment résister ? C’est à la création d’une sagesse que nous sommes invités, d’une sagesse nouvelle intégrant l’abondance, le confort, la puissance qui sont nôtres aujourd’hui. C’est aussi à une attitude résolue, "consistante", s’exprimant par des micro-actions, c’est enfin à une transformation de notre être – et non de nos savoirs ou de nos savoir-faire – que nous sommes invités. Ainsi saurons-nous peut-être vivre, au présent, dans cette sérénité qui caractérise le sage.

Book Moralizing Technology

Download or read book Moralizing Technology written by Peter-Paul Verbeek and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology permeates nearly every aspect of our daily lives. Cars enable us to travel long distances, mobile phones help us to communicate, and medical devices make it possible to detect and cure diseases. But these aids to existence are not simply neutral instruments: they give shape to what we do and how we experience the world. And because technology plays such an active role in shaping our daily actions and decisions, it is crucial, Peter-Paul Verbeek argues, that we consider the moral dimension of technology. Moralizing Technology offers exactly that: an in-depth study of the ethical dilemmas and moral issues surrounding the interaction of humans and technology. Drawing from Heidegger and Foucault, as well as from philosophers of technology such as Don Ihde and Bruno Latour, Peter-Paul Verbeek locates morality not just in the human users of technology but in the interaction between us and our machines. Verbeek cites concrete examples, including some from his own life, and compellingly argues for the morality of things. Rich and multifaceted, and sure to be controversial, Moralizing Technology will force us all to consider the virtue of new inventions and to rethink the rightness of the products we use every day.

Every major technical changes reverberates at countless levels: economic, political, and cultural. If we continue to see the social and technical domains as being seperate, then we are essentially denying an integral part of our existence, and our place in a democratic society.

Book Daniel Goleman Omnibus

Download or read book Daniel Goleman Omnibus written by Daniel Goleman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotional Intelligence Does IQ define our destiny? Daniel Goleman argues that our view of human intelligence is far too narrow, and that our emotions play a major role in thought, decision making and individual success. Self-awareness, impulse control, persistence, motivation, empathy and social deftness are all qualities that mark people who excel: whose relationships flourish, who are stars in the workplace. With new insights into the brain architecture underlying emotion and rationality, Goleman shows precisely how emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened in all of us. Working with Emotional Intelligence Do you want to be more successful at work? Do you want to improve your chances of promotion? Do you want to get on better with your colleagues? Daniel Goleman draws on unparalleled access to business leaders around the world and the thorough research that is his trademark. He demonstrates that emotional intelligence at work matters twice as much as cognitive abilities such as IQ or technical expertise in this inspiring sequel.

Book Theories in Adult Learning and Education

Download or read book Theories in Adult Learning and Education written by Paul Bélanger and published by Verlag Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adult Learning and Education The graduate student guide in adult education explores theories of adult learning and adult education participation. It provides a frame of reference for understanding the development of a rapidly evolving field and for enhancing knowledge and competencies in this professional domain. The publication is divided into two sections: a section on adult learning theories and a section on adult education participation theories. If Adult Learning and Education (ALE) is now a recognised professional field, the theoretical perspectives, underlying practices and policies draw on a variety of academic disciplines. Various theories of learning and of adult education participation shape the practice and the “engineering” of adult learning. In the first section, this study guide provides a review of the most important learning theories, including behaviourist, cognitive, and constructivist approaches, their modern development, as well as specific developments in adult education theory. The second section examines the psychological and sociological theoretical backgrounds of adult education participation in order to understand the factors at work in participation patterns along the adult life course and between different social contexts. Observing the relativity of social reproduction allows to identify the conditions and variables that need to be addressed in order to alter prevailing trends.
