Book The School Based Vocational Education and Training System in Spain

Download or read book The School Based Vocational Education and Training System in Spain written by Fernando Marhuenda-Fluixá and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the developments in policy and practice in the field of formal, non-formal and continuing vocational education and training in Spain since 1970. It describes how VET has been transformed and become one of the country’s main areas of pedagogical innovation, and also examines current developments, such as the role of non-formal vocational education and training, the accreditation of vocational qualifications acquired in the non-formal system, and the adoption of dual apprenticeships that bear little resemblance to central European dual systems. Written by respected researchers in these fields, the first section is informative and analytical, offering a description of the system and comments based on academic literature and research. The second section illustrates the research on relevant issues, portraying empirical data from different regions in Spain, as well as nationwide data. Explaining and interpreting data on the basis of the authors’ different theoretical frameworks, the book provides a comprehensive, updated and accurate overview of VET and relevant research in Spain, as well as their relation to European and global developments.

Book The Routledge International Handbook of Community Psychology

Download or read book The Routledge International Handbook of Community Psychology written by Carolyn Kagan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook offers a unique critical and cross-disciplinary approach to the study of Community Psychology, showing how it can address the systemic challenges arising from multiple crises facing people across the world. Addressing some of the most pressing issues of our times, the text shows how Community Psychology can contribute to principled social change, giving voice, enabling civic participation and supporting the realignment of social and economic power within planetary boundaries. Featuring a collaboration of contributions from world-leading academics, early career researchers and community leaders, each chapter gives theory and context with practical examples of working with those living in precarious situations, on matters that concern them most, and highlights positive ways to contribute to progressive change. The editors examine economic, ecological, demographic, gender, violence, energy, social and cultural, and political crises in relation to psychological theories, as well as public policy and lived experiences, presenting an approach situated at the intersection of public policy and lived experiences. Viewed through four different perspectives or lenses: a critical lens; a praxis lens; an ecological lens and a reflective lens, this compendium of critical explorations into Community Psychology shows how it can contribute to a fairer, more just, resilient and sustainable world. Also examining the lessons learnt from the COVID-19 pandemic about the pervading nature of social inequality, but also the potential of solidarity movements ranging from local to international levels, this is ideal reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students and scholars in Community Psychology and related areas, including social psychology, clinical psychology and applied psychology.

  • ISBN : 1463340087
  • Pages : 181 pages

Download or read book Palabras Para Rescatar written by Manuel Rodr Guez Espejo and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PA L A B R A S Q U E R E S C ATA R aporta 30 temas que pretenden hacer reflexionar al lector/a sobre otras tantas palabras que necesitan ser repensadas, porque la fe, como la vida misma, es continuo proceso de profundización. Lo más auténtico de nuestro ser no está en la superficie, ni siquiera en la inteligencia, sino en el descubrimiento de eso que llamamos "sabiduría divina", que se nos transmite en el contacto con la palabra, escuchada con el corazón y reflexionada también con un corazón sencillo, como de hijo que confía en su padre/madre. No todos los 30 capítulos tienen la misma longitud. Unos son más para ser leídos y otros, para ser trabajados. He buscado, en todos, palabras necesitadas de rescate, de actualización, palabras esenciales, como: voluntad, libertad, eucaristía, fe, perdón, Nueva Evangelización, familia, luz, oración, prueba, sufrimiento, servicio, vida cristiana, vida consagrada, acción de gracias, cuaresma, sanación, conversión, corrección fraterna, María, política y cristianismo... He tenido una doble intención: que pueda ser leído por adultos y jóvenes; y que los padres o educadores puedan usarlo con sus hijos o alumnos.

Book excerpt: El canon horizontal, más que un conjunto de ensayos empeñados en apreciaciones coyunturales sobre la producción textual de dominicanos y puertorriqueños disecciona y compara, traza un mapa claro y definido de rutas alternas para el estudio y disfrute de una literatura plena en voces y afluencias. Hurga en los elementos productivos de los textos, su teoría, sus logros formales y en la expresión de una poética del decir a fin de encontrar el sentido.

Download or read book Post DomestiCity written by Diego Garcia-Setien and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PostDomestiCity is an inquiry and speculative exercise into the conditions of obsolescence in the post-industrial city, from a contemporary perspective. Working with three paradigmatic cases that were conceived from industrial logics—the Packard plant in Detroit, Lima’s PREVI neighbourhood, and theGrand’Mare complex in Rouen—, we explore alternative ways of reusing, reprogramming, and redensifying the built environment as alternatives to demolition. Relevant voices in the field of architecture share their approaches and visions of the future for the pre-existing city, helping us imagine post-domesticity in the current climate crisis and socio-technological context. With Contributions of Anne Lacaton, Marina Otero, Ippolito Pestellini, Duplex Architects, Lacol, Antonio Vázquez de Castro, Carmen Espegel, Luis Takahashi, Lys Villalba, O.F. architects, DABG, Patricia Lucas, Ramón Araujo, Paulo Dam, Renato Manrique, CoLaboratorio (Diego García-Setién, Enrique Espinosa, Begoña de Abajo, Almudena Ribot).

Download or read book Terapias de cine written by Tabernero Holgado, Carlos and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La medicina y el cine son parte de nuestro día a día. Acudimos a la consulta o a la sala en busca de algún tipo de alivio y de puertas a otros mundos. Y la consulta y la sala, la medicina y el cine, se miran de reojo. La medicina quiere al cine para mirar, explorar y estudiar, diagnosticar y operar; también como herramienta publicitaria y de propaganda, para construir su autoridad. Y el cine cuenta muy a menudo con la medicina porque trabaja con experiencias rutinarias de salud y enfermedad, sus miedos y sus osadías, sus servidumbres y sus rebeldías. La medicina y el cine caminan de la mano con la experiencia cotidiana de la muerte y de la vida. Y la medicina es cine porque es soñar, cuestionar y luchar, como lo es sufrir, morir y amar. Y es por esto mismo que también, en nuestro día a día, el cine es medicina.

Book Atolones de pelusa

  • Pages : 175 pages

Download or read book Atolones de pelusa written by José Ángel Garrido and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-04-02 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Encuentros, desencuentros, paradojas, revelaciones... instantes que arrastran pequeñas aglomeraciones de polvo y suciedad. El roce con las cosas y entre los seres desprende pequeñas partículas de pelusa, igual que la combustión libera energía. En ocasiones, algunos fragmentos se nos quedan pegados sin que lo advirtamos. Otras los transmitimos, los perdemos, los redescubrimos, los confundimos. El tiempo y el azar los transforman en atolones, formando una extensión nueva, adosada a nuestro cuerpo, capaz de comunicar con él por cauces extraños y desconocidos. Su existencia microscópica, en fin, nos perturba sin saberlo: placeres sobrevenidos, pensamientos nuevos, subidones de tristeza, bajones de euforia... Pelusas calcáreas que se acumulan formando atolones de vivencias, protegidas del olvido, hechas de olvido».

Book Manifestations of Reason  Life  Historicity  Culture Reason  Life  Culture Part II

Download or read book Manifestations of Reason Life Historicity Culture Reason Life Culture Part II written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Can there be a more flagrant challenge to the recent - and classic - relativisms, scepticisms and 'deconstructivisms' toward reason, rationality, logos than the Vision of the Manifestation of Life?" As Tymieniecka writes in the introduction to this second book on the constructive appreciation of reason (first book: Analecta Husserliana, Vol. XXXIX), the works of the logos manifest themselves indubitably in the edifice of life. Among perspectives in the compass of reason of this collection: individualisation of life, human existence, reason and doxa (studies by Tymieniecka, Kelkel, Schrag, Buscaroli, Kelly, Laycock, and others) the emphasis falls upon 'inner rationalities' of the spirit, creativity, culture (Bosio, D'Ippolito, Delle Site, Barral, Wittkowski, Regina, Haney, Ales Bello, Sivak, Elosequi), culminating in the issues of historiography and history by Mario Sancipriano, to whom the book is dedicated. This collection stems from the work of The World Phenomenology Institute, mainly its two congresses held in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia, and Verona, Italy.
