This book was released on 2012-11-17 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta selección de ensayos escritos entre 1991 y 2008, Kenneth M. ZEICHNER analiza las relaciones entre diversos aspectos de la formación del profesorado, su desarrollo profesional y su contribución a la consecución educación de gran calidad para todas las chicas y chicos y, por tanto, a una mayor justicia en los procesos escolares y en la sociedad más amplia. El foco de atención dominante se centra en cuestiones referentes a la igualdad y a la justicia social en la formación del profesorado y en el desarrollo profesional del docente. Algo que están poniendo en cuestión el fuerte predominio de las políticas neoliberales, de los nuevos modelos empresariales y de las políticas neoconservadoras. Políticas que tienen en su agenda de urgencia privatizar la educación pública y, simultáneamente, culpabilizar al profesorado y a los centros escolares de los problemas de la sociedad. Un tema importante que aparece de diversas formas a lo largo de los capítulos es el convencimiento de que la misión de los programas de formación del profesorado es la de preparar para educar con éxito a todo tipo de alumnado, cualquiera que sea su procedencia social, étnica o familiar. Advierte contra la aceptación acrítica de conceptos y prácticas estimuladas desde muchos discursos dominantes tanto por parte de la Administración como en las instituciones de formación y actualización docente, como los de justicia social, reflexión, investigación en la acción y escuelas de desarrollo profesional, sin un examen más detenido de los objetivos a los que se dirigen en la práctica y de las consecuencias reales relacionadas con su uso. Un segundo tema es el de la defensa de una formación del profesorado más democrática que utilice el conocimiento y la experiencia que existen en las instituciones que preparan a profesores y profesoras, en los centros educativos y en las comunidades donde éstos se encuentran.
Download or read book Enhancing Autonomy in Language Education written by Manuel Jiménez Raya and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores the idea that pedagogy for autonomy requires the integration of teacher and learner development and can be enhanced through a case-based approach in teacher education. A case-based approach values experiential professional learning and expands professional competences necessary to promote autonomy in schools: developing a critical view of (language) education; managing local constraints so as to open up spaces for manoeuvre; centring teaching on learning; interacting with others in the professional community. Two strategies to implement the approach are presented and illustrated. The first one involves teachers in designing, implementing and evaluating experiences of pedagogy for autonomy, which are the basis for writing professional narratives and building a case portfolio. The second draws on teachers’ pedagogical experience as the basis for the construction of case materials where experiential elements are combined with theoretical input and reflective tasks, so that the teachers who use those materials can reflect about and explore their own practice.

Download or read book Teacher Education for High Poverty Schools written by Jo Lampert and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume captures the innovative, theory-based, and grounded work being done by established scholars who are interrogating how teacher education can prepare teachers to work in challenging and diverse high-poverty settings. It offers articles from the US, Australia, Canada, the UK and Chile by some of the most significant scholars in the field. Internationally, research suggests that effective teachers for high poverty schools require deep theoretical understanding as well as the capacity to function across three well-substantiated areas: deep content knowledge, well-tuned pedagogical skills, and demonstrated attributes that prove their understanding and commitment to social justice. Schools in low socioeconomic communities need quality teachers most, however, they are often staffed by the least experienced and least prepared teachers. The chapters in this volume examine how pre-service teachers are taught to understand the social contexts of education. Drawing on the individual expertise of the authors, the topics covered include unpacking poverty for pre-service teachers, issues related to urban schooling as well as remote and regional area schooling.

Download or read book L S Vygotsky and Education written by Luis C. Moll and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vygotsky’s legacy in education is enduring and prolific, influencing educational research and scholarship in areas as far ranging child development, language and literacy development, bilingual education, and learning disabilities to name but a few. In this accessible, introductory volume, renowned Vygtosky authority Luis C. Moll presents a summary of Vygtoskian core concepts, constituting a cultural-historical approach to the study of thinking and development. Moll emphasizes what he considers central tenets of Vygotsky’s scholarship --- the sociocultural genesis of human thinking, the consideration of active and dynamic individuals, a developmental approach to studying human thinking, and the power of cultural mediation in understanding and transforming educational practices, broadly considered. After an introduction to Vygotsky’s life, the historical context for his work, and his ideas, Moll provides examples from his educational research inspired by Vygotsky’s work. With both critical scrutiny of current interpretations of Vygotksian theory and clear deference for the theorist known as "The Mozart of Psychology," Moll stresses the many ways Vygotksy’s theory can offer a theory of possibilities for positive pedagogical change.

Download or read book Rationing Education written by David Gillborn and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 1999-12-16 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research should make us extremely sceptical that the constant search for 'higher standards' and for ever-increasing achievement scores can do much more than put in place seemingly neutral devices for restratification." - Michael W Apple, John Bascom Professor of Curriculum and Instruction and Educational Policy Studies, University of Wisconsin, Madison Recent educational reforms have raised standards of achievement but have also resulted in growing inequalities based on 'race' and social class. School-by-school 'league tables' play a central role in the reforms. These have created an A-to-C economy where schools and teachers are judged on the proportion of students attaining five or more grades at levels A-to-C. To satisfy these demands schools are embracing new and ever more selective attempts to identify 'ability'. Their assumptions and practices embody a new IQism: a simple , narrow and regressive ideology of intelligence that labels working class and minority students as likely failures and justifies rationing provision to support those (often white, middle class boys) already marked for success. This book reports detailed research in two secondary schools showing the real costs of reform in terms of the pressures on teachers and the rationing of educational opportunity. It will be important reading for any teacher, researcher or policymaker with an interest in equality in education.
Download or read book NeutroAlgebra Theory Volume I written by Florentin Smarandache and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of papers from multiple authors. In 2019 and 2020 Smarandache [1, 2, 3, 4] generalized the classical Algebraic Structures to NeutroAlgebraic Structures (or NeutroAlgebras) {whose operations and axioms are partially true, partially indeterminate, and partially false} as extensions of Partial Algebra, and to AntiAlgebraic Structures (or AntiAlgebras) {whose operations and axioms are totally false}. The NeutroAlgebras & AntiAlgebras are a new field of research, which is inspired from our real world. In classical algebraic structures, all axioms are 100%, and all operations are 100% well-defined, but in real life, in many cases these restrictions are too harsh, since in our world we have things that only partially verify some laws or some operations. Using the process of NeutroSophication of a classical algebraic structure we produce a NeutroAlgebra, while the process of AntiSophication of a classical algebraic structure produces an AntiAlgebra.
