Download or read book La ley de las aulas written by García Barnés, Héctor and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una de las ideas más extendidas en la España actual es que la Educación Primaria y Secundaria no está a la altura de lo que se espera de un país moderno y desarrollado, un mantra que se repite cada vez que se publica un nuevo informe PISA. Este reportaje intenta trazar una breve historia de los cambios que cada ley ha introducido en los últimos 45 años de enseñanza, desde que la Ley General de Educación modernizase el sistema de escuelas e institutos públicos hasta la reciente implantación de la LOMCE, dando voz a aquellos que paradójicamente suelen ser excluidos del debate educativo, sus profesores. Estos explican las dificultades y alegrías de su trabajo diario y la evolución que se ha producido durante las últimas décadas, y dejan la puerta abierta a innovaciones metodológicas que anuncian, en el corto plazo, un nuevo panorama educativo.

Download or read book Psychosocial Job Dimensions and Distress Well Being Issues and Challenges in Occupational Health Psychology written by Renato Pisanti and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last three decades a large body of research has showed that psychosocial job dimensions such as time pressure, decision authority and social support, could have significant implications for psychological distress and well-being. Theoretical models, such as the job demand-control-social support model (JDCS model), the effort-reward imbalance model (ERI model), the job demands-resources model (JDR model) and the vitamin model suggest that distress and positive dimensions at work (well being and motivation) can be considered as two sides of the same coin. If the job is designed to provide the right mix of psychosocial job dimensions (e.g., optimal time pressure, decision authority and social support), work can boost job engagement and well-being as well as productive behaviors at work. When the job is not designed in an optimal way (e.g., too much time pressure and too little decision authority) work can trigger stress reactions and burnout. Although some insight has been gained on how job dimensions could predict distress and well-being, and also into the dimensions that might moderate and mediate these associations; research still faces several challenges. Firstly, most of this research has been cross-sectional in nature, thus making it difficult to conclude on the long-term effects of psychosocial job dimensions. Another challenge concerns how the contextual dimensions can be incorporated into micro-levels models on employee stress and well-being. Nowadays, work is carried out in the context of a wider environment that includes organizational variables. So far the role of the organizational variables in the theoretical frameworks for explaining the relationships between psychosocial job dimensions, employee distress and well-being, has often been underplayed. The main aim of this research topic is to bring together international research from different theoretical and methodological perspectives in order to advance knowledge and practice in the field of work stress.

Download or read book The Handbook of Salutogenesis written by Maurice B. Mittelmark and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This in-depth survey of salutogenesis shows the breadth and strengths of this innovative perspective on health promotion, health care, and wellness. Background and historical chapters trace the development of the salutogenic model of health, and flesh out the central concepts, most notably generalized resistance resources and the sense of coherence, that differentiate it from pathogenesis. From there, experts describe a range of real-world applications within and outside health contexts, from positive psychology to geriatrics, from small towns to corrections facilities, and from school and workplace to professional training. Perspectives from scholars publishing in languages other than English show the global relevance of the field. Among the topics in the Handbook: · Emerging ideas relevant to the salutogenic model of health · Specific resistance resources in the salutogenic model of health · The sense of coherence and its measurement · The application of salutogenesis in communities and neighborhoods · The application of salutogenesis to health development in youth with chronic conditions · The application of salutogenesis in mental health care settings The Handbook of Salutogenesis summarizes an increasingly salient field for graduate and professional students of public health, nursing, psychology, and medicine, and for their instructors. It will also appeal to health-related academicians and professionals who wish to have a thorough grounding in the topic.
