This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el momento actual nos encontramos en una situación de importantes cambios, tanto en lo que respecta al modelo de Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior, que está suponiendo el replanteamiento de los modelos y estrategias docentes empleados hasta la fecha, como en lo relativo a la implantación, en el último ciclo de Educación Primaria y primer ciclo de Educación Secundaria, del Programa Escuela 2.0, por parte del gobierno español. Ambos hechos implican un cambio de cultura que concierne tanto al docente como a los estudiantes y a la propias instituciones como tales. La Escuela 2.0 supone, por ejemplo, explorar nuevos enfoques metodológicos y herramientas que pueden emplearse con fines didácticos, como son las webs sociales, el trabajo colaborativo a través de wikis, sistemas de gestión de cursos, el uso educativo de blogs, etc. Estos nuevos contextos exigen, entre otros aspectos: 1. La necesidad de trabajo colaborativo entre los docentes, de modo que los profesores participen en proyectos de innovación formando redes de profesores innovadores, compañeros del propio centro que colaboran para llevar a cabo propuestas novedosas en cuanto a la organización de las asignaturas, coordinación de las mismas, implementación de nuevas metodologías didácticas, colaboración entre alumnos, etc. 2. La incorporación de las nuevas tecnologías en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. La posesión de competencias tecnológicas para el desempeño profesional es una demanda social que debe ser atendida en el proceso de formación inicial de los titulados. Por ello las nuevas tecnologías se han de utilizar como un recurso docente que posibilite una mejor adaptación a los diferentes tipos de alumnos y a sus diversas situaciones académicas; y al mismo tiempo una exigencia para los estudiantes, que han de saber hacer uso de los mismos en su desempeño pre-profesional. De igual modo, no ha de olvidarse las posibilidades que ofrecen para la colaboración entre colegas y la comunicación entre los profesores y alumnos en nuevos escenarios de carácter virtual. Consideramos, por una parte, que los cambios anteriormente citados son lo suficientemente trascendentales como para generar espacios de reflexión sobre cuáles pueden ser las metodologías de aprendizaje más apropiadas en esos nuevos contextos educativos universitarios y no universitarios. Metodologías que apoyándose en la integración de las TIC (OECD, 2009): • Promuevan las relaciones entre los alumnos. • Aumenten su motivación y autoestima. • Desarrollen habilidades interpersonales y estrategias para resolver conflictos. • Promuevan el respeto, la tolerancia, la flexibilidad y la apertura hacia los demás • Enseñen a compartir responsabilidades, a organizarse y dividir tareas. • Brinden un espacio para superar las dificultades que se puedan tener en un ambiente de confianza y compañerismo. En definitiva, que promuevan un aprendizaje colaborativo, no sólo a nivel de alumnado, sino también entre los profesores, los cuales, como señalan algunos autores, “no están acostumbrados a trabajar en equipo ni a compartir sus preocupaciones” (Ortiz Oría, 1991,51). Por otra parte, la puesta en práctica tanto del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior, como del Programa Escuela 2.0, demanda una formación específica de los docentes desde la que puedan explorar nuevos enfoques metodológicos de gran proyección para la innovación educativa. Las metodologías de aprendizaje colaborativo a través de las TIC no son aún muy frecuentes, ni en el ámbito escolar, ni en el universitario, pero allí donde se está trabajando con este tipo de enfoque metodológico, los resultados son positivos, se mejora el clima de trabajo en el aula, las actitudes de los estudiantes y su grado de motivación, así como su rendimiento escolar. Por todo lo que acabamos de comentar, el presente trabajo constituye la recopilación de una serie de reflexiones e iniciativas de gran trascendencia. Ofrecer a los docentes y a otros profesionales de la educación diversas perspectivas teóricas en torno al aprendizaje colaborativo y cómo ponerlo en práctica en un contexto metodológico concreto mediado por el uso de las TIC; así como presentarles experiencias pioneras de uso de este aprendizaje en procesos educativos; o compartir las propias iniciativas que al respecto puedan estar desarrollando los propios docentes, son finalidades que dan sentido a la presente publicación. Para organizar mejor la misma y que el lector pueda, si así lo desea, realizar una lectura más selectiva de aquellas reflexiones y/o experiencias que le puedan interesar, hemos organizado las distintas contribuciones en seis apartados: 1. La concepción del aprendizaje colaborativo 2. Las distintas metodologías de aprendizaje colaborativo 3. El aprendizaje colaborativo como estrategia metodológica para el desarrollo de la innovación educativa 4. Las metodologías de aprendizaje colaborativo mediante el uso de las TIC y sus implicaciones en la mejora del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje 5. La formación del profesorado para estimular el trabajo colaborativo en los centros educativos mediante el empleo de las TIC 6. Las prácticas profesionales de trabajo colaborativo a través de las TIC en los distintos niveles educativos Esperamos que el futuro lector pueda encontrar respuestas a algunas de las problemáticas actuales en torno al tema y le suscite, además, aquellos interrogantes que le permitan reflexionar y construir nuevos conocimientos desde la práctica.

Download or read book Self Regulated Learning in Technology Enhanced Learning Environments written by Roberto Carneiro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-regulated learning (SRL) subsumes key aspects of the learning process, such as cognitive strategies, metacognition and motivation, in one coherent construct. Central to this construct are the autonomy and responsibility of students to take charge of their own learning. Skills for self-regulation can be encouraged both directly and indirectly through a range of learning activities. In this book we look specifically at the ways in which technology enhanced learning environments (TELEs) have been used to support self-regulation. The book provides an overview of recent studies on SRL in TELEs in Europe – a perspective which is new and has not been articulated hitherto. It addresses conceptual and methodological questions as well as practices in technology enhanced learning. While the focus is on European studies, we are aware that much of the groundwork in the field of SRL has emanated from the United States. The book is divided into three parts: (A) Foundations of SRL in TELEs, (B) Empirical studies on SRL in TELEs and (C) SRL in TELEs: perspectives on future developments. The book presents a rich resource of information for researchers and educators at all levels who are interested in supporting the acquisition of SRL through TELEs.

Download or read book Search and research written by Ana GARCÍA-VALCÁRCEL and published by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 1192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Descripción / Resumen (Inglés): The present volume represents a compilation of international teacher education practice and research with a focus on Teacher Education for Contemporary Contexts. It draws upon the diverse educational perspectives, teaching procedures, knowledge, and situated contexts where the discipline takes shape. The sections of this book comprise research papers accepted for presentation during the 18th International Study Association on Teachers and Teaching (ISATT) Biennial Conference that will take place from July 3rd to July 7th in Salamanca, Spain. Around 300 delegates from 57 countries across the globe and a large Scientific Committee of 80 colleagues have contributed academically and professionally to support our ability to share the contents of this volume. The main conference topic is search and research. Searching is the action of looking carefully at people, objects, and situations in order to find something concealed or to discover something beyond the ordinary. This is what teachers do in their classrooms and, primarily, ‘search’ represents their endeavours to construct professional knowledge as a result of developing practice. Researching is systematic inquiry that intends to discover new knowledge and/or to refute educational theories, a process typically rendered by teacher educators and other researchers. The focus of this 18th biennial ISATT conference is to bring together both “search” and “research”, connecting practice and theory (or ‘praxis’), with the purpose of offering relevant solutions to realistic classroom problems. The editorial process followed three differentiated phases: The first phase required abstract submission with the purpose of being accepted for the conference. A double (or triple) blind review was conducted to evaluate whether the papers submitted were suitable for the conference. A rate of 87% of the papers were accepted for presentation. The second phase encouraged authors to voluntarily submit a full paper of 3,000 words. A total of 111 full papers were then subjected to an open review process with the main purpose of suggesting to authors ways of further improving the presentation of their valuable research. A third phase, not yet completed and therefore beyond the scope of this book, was the review and selection of the outstanding papers, papers that were deemed eligible for the post-proceeding publication (i.e., less than 15% of the total). The central intent of the book is to contribute to fostering scholarly discussions and to inform future teaching trajectories, strengthen lines of research in teacher education and demonstrate the opportunities and constraints in our professional work. Its added value highlights the commonplace in international research that serves to depict how the field of teacher education is moving forward in an increasingly global society. All in all, teachers, teacher educators and researchers learn by effective communication processes, whether in in personal/professional interactions or in the use of digital technologies. Positive interactions lead to building strong communities of learners, which in turn, leads to the production of valuable knowledge and better understandings about learning and teaching. With the upcoming commemoration of its 800th anniversary in the year 2018, the University of Salamanca, as the oldest university in operation in Spain, is proud to host the ISATT 18th biennial conference and to support the exceptional work of many researchers in the field of Teacher Education by compiling and editing the work in this volume. Furthermore, the local Organizing Committee and the ISATT Executive Committee hope you will experience a rewarding intellectual experience as a result of your contributions and knowledge, as both academics and practitioners. Thank you very much for providing us this exciting opportunity to work with you. We warmly welcome you to Salamanca – a truly historic and a contemporary context! Descripción / Resumen (Español / Castellano): El presente volumen está integrado por una recopilación de prácticas e investigaciones internacionales de formación docente centradas en la formación de profesores en la sociedad actual. Se basa en las diversas perspectivas educativas, los procedimientos de enseñanza, conocimiento y contextos sociales. Las secciones de este libro comprenden trabajos de investigación aceptados para su exposición en las XVIII Conferencia Bienal Internacional de Estudios de Profesores y Enseñanza (ISATT) que tendrá lugar del 3 al 7 de julio en Salamanca, España. Alrededor de 300 delegados de 57 países de todo el mundo y un gran Comité Científico de 80 colegas han contribuido académica y profesionalmente en favor de este evento. El tema principal de la conferencia es la búsqueda y la investigación. «Buscar» es la acción de mirar cuidadosamente a las personas, objetos y situaciones para encontrar algo escondido o descubrir algo más allá de lo ordinario. Esto es lo que los maestros hacen en sus clases y, sobre todo, la búsqueda representa sus esfuerzos para construir conocimiento profesional como resultado del desarrollo de la práctica cotidiana. La «investigación» es una investigación sistemática que pretende descubrir nuevos conocimientos y/o refutar teorías educativas, un proceso que suelen dar los educadores de profesores y de otros investigadores. El objetivo de esta 18ª conferencia ISATT es reunir tanto la «búsqueda» como la «investigación», conectando la práctica y la teoría (o praxis) con el propósito de ofrecer soluciones relevantes a los problemas reales de la clase. El proceso editorial siguió tres fases diferenciadas: 1. Requirió el envío de resúmenes con el propósito de que fuesen aceptados para la ser expuestos en la conferencia. Se realizó una revisión doble ciego (o triple) para evaluar si los artículos presentados eran adecuados. Se aceptó una tasa de 87% de los trabajos para su presentación. 2. La segunda fase requirió de los autores en envío en período voluntario de un trabajo completo de 3.000 palabras. Un total de 111 trabajos fueron sometidos a un proceso de revisión abierta con el propósito principal de sugerir a los autores formas de mejora. 3. Una tercera fase, aún inconclusa, y por lo tanto fuera del alcance de este libro, fue la revisión y selección de los documentos pendientes, los documentos que se consideraron electos para la publicación posterior al procedimiento (es decir, menos del 15% del total). La intención central de esta obra es contribuir a fomentar el debate académico e informar sobre futuras trayectorias de enseñanza, fortalecer las líneas de investigación en la formación del profesorado y demostrar las oportunidades y limitaciones en nuestro ámbito. Su valor es el de destacar el lugar común en la investigación internacional que sirve para describir cómo el campo de la formación de maestros avanza en una sociedad cada vez más global. En general, los maestros, los educadores de educadores y los investigadores aprendan mediante procesos de comunicación eficaces, ya sea en interacciones personales/profesionales o en el uso de tecnologías digitales. Las interacciones conducen a la construcción de comunidades fuertes de estudiantes, que a su vez, conduce a la producción de conocimientos valiosos y mejores sobre el aprendizaje y la enseñanza. Con la próxima conmemoración de su 800 aniversario en el año 2018, la Universidad de Salamanca, como la decana de las españolas, se enorgullece en acoger la XVIII Conferencia Bienal de ISATT y apoyar el trabajo excepcional de muchos investigadores en el campo del Profesor Educación Investigador, editando la obra. Además, el Comité Organizador Local y el Comité Ejecutivo de ISATT esperan que experimente una lectura gratificante como resultado de sus contribuciones y conocimientos, tanto académicos como profesionales. Muchas gracias por brindarnos esta emocionante oportunidad de trabajar con usted. ¡Les damos la bienvenida a Salamanca un contexto verdaderamente histórico y a su vez contemporáneo!

Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.
