This book was released on 1996 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este libro se intenta establecer las características que definen una concepción de las actividades físicas y deportivas que tienen lugar en el contexto escolar y extraescolar. Una concepción coherente con la intencionalidad educativa y recreativa que debe presidir su organización y su realización. Esta coherencia se deberá poner de manifiesto a través del carácter intengradore y abierto de la práctica, donde la competencia (si la hay) constituya un medio para la relación, la recreación y la superación personal y no un fin en sí misma; y donde la atención a la motivación y al interés personal de cada persona no excluya la exploración y vivencia de diferentes modalidades que enriquezcan el bagaje sociocultural de todo participante.
Download or read book Teaching Tech Together written by Greg Wilson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms. These groups exist so that people don't have to learn these things on their own, but ironically, their founders and instructors are often teaching themselves how to teach. There's a better way. This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.

Download or read book Actividades f sicas extraescolares written by and published by INDE. This book was released on 1998 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A través del contenido del libro, los autores denuncian la situación del currículo oficial y la práctica actual de la Educación Física escolar, la cual consideran que ha venido desvirtuando el sentido educativo y neutral de la actividad física extraescolar. El contenido de la obra se encuentra divido en dos partes, presentando muy acertadamente la dimensión práctica y teórica que envuelve el diseño y desarrollo de la actividad física extraescolar. De esta forma, se arremete dialécticamente contra algunos de los pilares que dan firmeza a la plataforma de la política y práctica de los contenidos extraescolares, los cuales permiten reproducir en un porcentaje elevado el mismo modelo de enseñanza imperante en el aula. En la segunda parte de la obra, este discurso es perfectamente conectado con algunas experiencias desarrolladas en los últimos años por diferentes puntos del territorio nacional. Con gran coherencia y rigurosidad los directores de la obra han conseguido reunir a cualificados expertos, que presentan un amplio pero claro enfoque sobre la utilización de los contenidos extraescolares como medio educativo. El texto apuesta por el potencial educativo de este tipo de "actividades", donde la convivencia social es más intensa, la motivación orienta la actuación de los agentes y la calificación no condiciona tanto el aprendizaje. Precisamente en el momento en que se evidencia una gran desconexión entre la enseñanza escolar y la enseñanza cotidiana se necesitan obras como ésta, que permitan acercar la escuela a la sociedad y la sociedad a la escuela. La lectura de los capítulos que se presentan en la obra es esencial para maestros y profesores de educación física, pero al mismo tiempo para monitores, entrenadores, animadores y demás profesionales cuya acción se sitúa dentro del ámbito de la enseñanza de la educación física.
Download or read book Disciplined Mind written by Howard Gardner and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brilliant and revolutionary theory of multiple intelligences reexamines the goals of education to support a more educated society for future generations. Howard Gardner’s concept of multiple intelligences has been hailed as perhaps the most profound insight into education since the work of Jerome Bruner, Jean Piaget, and even John Dewey. Here, in The Disciplined Mind, Garner pulls together the threads of his previous works and looks beyond such issues as charters, vouchers, unions, and affirmative action in order to explore the larger questions of what constitutes an educated person and how this can be achieved for all students. Gardner eloquently argues that the purpose of K–12 education should be to enhance students’ deep understanding of the truth (and falsity), beauty (and ugliness), and goodness (and evil) as defined by their various cultures. By exploring the theory of evolution, the music of Mozart, and the lessons of the Holocaust as a set of examples that illuminates the nature of truth, beauty, and morality, The Disciplined Mind envisions how younger generations will rise to the challenges of the future—while preserving the traditional goals of a “humane” education. Gardner’s ultimate goal is the creation of an educated generation that understands the physical, biological, and societal world in their own personal context as well as in a broader world view. But even as Gardner persuasively argues the merits of his approach, he recognizes the difficulty of developing one universal, ideal form of education. In an effort to reconcile conflicting educational viewpoints, he proposes the creation of six different educational pathways that, when taken together, can satisfy people’s concern for student learning and their widely divergent views about knowledge and understanding overall.

Download or read book Learning to Write written by Gunther Kress and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, this influential and classic text poses two questions: what is it that a child learns when he or she learns to write? What can we learn about children, society and ourselves, by looking at this process? The book is based on a close analysis of a series of written texts by primary school children and is written for student teachers with little or no knowledge of linguistics. In this new edition, Gunther Kress has made extensive revisions in the light of recent developments in linguistics and in education. The theoretical focus is now a social semiotic one, which allows a fundamental rethinking of issues such as 'preliteracy' and broad social and cultural questions around the making of texts.

Download or read book Remaking Media written by Robert Hackett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-07-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remaking Media is a unique and timely reading of the contemporary struggle to democratize communication. With a focus on activism directed towards challenging and changing media content, practices and structures, the book explores the burning question: What is the political significance and potential of democratic media activism in the western world today? Taking an innovative approach, Robert Hackett and William Carroll pay attention to an emerging social movement that appears at the cutting edge of cultural and political contention, and ground their work in three scholarly traditions that provide interpretive resources for the study of democratic media activism: political theories of democracy critical media scholarship the sociology of social movements. Remaking Media examines the democratization of the media and the efforts to transform the machinery of representation. Such an examination will prove invaluable not only to media and communication studies students, but also to students of political science.
