Book Dirigir la escuela 0 3

Download or read book Dirigir la escuela 0 3 written by Àngels Geis Balagué and published by Grao. This book was released on 2006-11-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro presenta desde las bases éticas que permiten afrontar la responsabilidad de educar a niños y niñas en sus primeros tres años de vida, hasta los principios de la buena dirección y gestión aplicados a la escuela 0-3. También presenta una revisión de los principios normativos que regulan las escuelas 0-3, el importante tema del liderazgo, consejos para orientar la escuela hacia una mayor calidad, guías para conducir la imprescindible relación familia-escuela y modelos de actuación en la resolución de conflictos. Aunque en las últimas décadas se ha escrito mucho sobre dirección escolar, lo cierto es que la escuela 0-3 ha quedado relegada, hasta la fecha, de esta importante disciplina. Esta obra quiere salir al paso de esta falta de marcos teórico-prácticos de referencia en la escuela 0-3, y aportar algunos fundamentos sólidos que ayuden a mejorar la dirección de la escuela 0-3.

Book Engaging People in Sustainability

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].

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.

Book Learning to Write

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gunther Kress
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2003-09-02
  • ISBN : 1134908288
  • Pages : 248 pages

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.
