Download or read book Aprendizaje cooperativo mejora del rendimiento acad mico y el clima de convivencia en Educaci n Secundario Obligatoria Colegio La Salle de Palencia written by and published by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. 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 University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic written by Fernando M. Reimers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach

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 250 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 Assessment and Teaching of 21st Century Skills written by Patrick Griffin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second volume of papers from the ATC21STM project deals with the development of an assessment and teaching system of 21st century skills. Readers are guided through a detailed description of the methods used in this process. The first volume was published by Springer in 2012 (Griffin, P., McGaw, B. & Care, E., Eds., Assessment and Teaching of 21st Century Skills, Dordrecht: Springer). The major elements of this new volume are the identification and description of two 21st century skills that are amenable to teaching and learning: collaborative problem solving, and learning in digital networks. Features of the skills that need to be mirrored in their assessment are identified so that they can be reflected in assessment tasks. The tasks are formulated so that reporting of student performance can guide implementation in the classroom for use in teaching and learning. How simple tasks can act as platforms for development of 21st century skills is demonstrated, with the concurrent technical infrastructure required for its support. How countries with different languages and cultures participated and contributed to the development process is described. The psychometric qualities of the online tasks developed are reported, in the context of the robustness of the automated scoring processes. Finally, technical and educational issues to be resolved in global projects of this nature are outlined.

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 The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download or read book Engaging People in Sustainability written by Daniella Tilbury and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2004 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].

Download or read book Overcoming Autism written by Lynn Kern Koegel, Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.

Download or read book Individualism Old and New written by John Dewey and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2009-12-02 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America''s most renowned social philosopher John Dewey shines his powerful intellect on the serious public and cultural issues surrounding the place of the individual in a technologically advanced society. In this penetrating study, he addresses the fear that personal creative potential will be trampled by assembly-line monotony, political bureaucracy, and an industrialized culture of uniformity. Armed with his pragmatic approach and his belief in the power of critical intelligence, Dewey argues that individualism has in fact been offered a uniquely higher plane of technological development upon which to grow, mature, and redefine itself.
