Download or read book Revacion Escolar written by Torin Finser and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como consecuencia de la actual crisis en educación, la gente está empezando a darse cuenta de que las escuelas abarcan mucho más que la provisión de conocimientos y aptitudes a los niños. Las escuelas son comunidades y, como todas las comunidades, puede ser o no saludables. Renovación escolar aborda los problemas y desafíos de una comunidad escolar. Mediante el empleo de cuentos, mitos y la experiencia personal de la educación Waldorf, Torin Finser describe la forma en la que tanto maestros como padres afrontan problemas cotidianos como el agotamiento, los conflictos interpersonales y las trampas de la rutina. Lo más importante es que el autor hace hincapié en que una comunidad educativa debe llegar a un acuerdo con las numerosas dimensiones ocultas de cada individuo. Muestra cómo se pueden cultivar y alimentar estos aspectos poco entendidos de la mente con el fin de mantener viva la escuela y la educación. Renovación escolar no ofrece fórmulas ni soluciones chapuceras. En su lugar, anima a una nueva manera de pensar acerca de la educación y el crecimiento personal (para los niños y los adultos que se preocupan por ellos). «…si se me pudiese conceder un deseo en nombre de la renovación escolar, pediría una mejora significativa en la calidad del sueño de padres y maestros. Ningún otro cambio tiene un potencial más beneficioso que el de eliminar el estado de agotamiento crónico que se produce a final de semana en la mayoría de escuelas».

Download or read book Stet written by José Kozer and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: But if the experience of both art and world is non-linear and polyphonic-many voices clamoring simultaneously for attention-the problem for the artist is how, as the work proceeds, to suggest the presence of those other voices. Bach injects discords suggesting the presence of unheard, parallel harmonic structures; Kozer changes tone, linguistic class, reference, and language itself, each echoing beyond its enunciation.The "logic" of the movement moment to moment within Kozer's poems is often profoundly non-logical-the accident of two words sharing a phoneme may lead from one universe of allusion to another, one image suggesting the next. By the poem's end a tangle of pheonomena has been projected and a path found through it. This can be a dizzying experience for reader or listener. We're being asked to tease out the complexities as we proceed, and we can only proceed by immersion.

Download or read book Water for All written by Sarah T. Hines and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water for All chronicles how Bolivians democratized water access, focusing on the Cochabamba region, which is known for acute water scarcity and explosive water protests. Sarah T. Hines examines conflict and compromises over water from the 1870s to the 2010s, showing how communities of water users increased supply and extended distribution through collective labor and social struggle. Analyzing a wide variety of sources, from agrarian reform case records to oral history interviews, Hines investigates how water dispossession in the late nineteenth century and reclaimed water access in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries prompted, shaped, and strengthened popular and indigenous social movements. The struggle for democratic control over water culminated in the successful 2000 Water War, a decisive turning point for Bolivian politics. This story offers lessons for contemporary resource management and grassroots movements about how humans can build equitable, democratic, and sustainable resource systems in the Andes, Latin America, and beyond.
