  • Release : 2010-04-15
  • ISBN : 1589016858
  • Pages : 329 pages

Download or read book Boundaries written by Christine E. Gudorf and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this expanded and revised edition of a fresh and original case-study textbook on environmental ethics, Christine Gudorf and James Huchingson continue to explore the line that separates the current state of the environment from what it should be in the future. Boundaries begins with a lucid overview of the field, highlighting the key developments and theories in the environmental movement. Specific cases offer a rich and diverse range of situations from around the globe, from saving the forests of Java and the use of pesticides in developing countries to restoring degraded ecosystems in Nebraska. With an emphasis on the concrete circumstances of particular localities, the studies continue to focus on the dilemmas and struggles of individuals and communities who face daunting decisions with serious consequences. This second edition features extensive updates and revisions, along with four new cases: one on water privatization, one on governmental efforts to mitigate global climate change, and two on the obstacles that teachers of environmental ethics encounter in the classroom. Boundaries also includes an appendix for teachers that describes how to use the cases in the classroom.

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].

Book Disciplined Mind

    Book Details:
  • Author : Howard Gardner
  • Publisher : Simon & Schuster
  • Release : 2021-01-26
  • ISBN : 1982142219
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Disciplined Mind written by Howard Gardner and published by Simon & 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.

Book Relatos biogr  ficos en la formaci  n docente  Una base para la investigaci  n educativa

Download or read book Relatos biogr ficos en la formaci n docente Una base para la investigaci n educativa written by MARTÍN CUADRADO Ana María and published by Editorial UNED. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objetivo del manual Relatos biográficos en la formación docente. Una base para la investigación educativa es posibilitar la extrapolación de los contenidos (teóricos) del título El desarrollo de la profesión docente. Una nueva visión desde la acción pedagógica a la vida real y formativa del docente y pedagogo, siendo, por otra parte, el segundo de los dos textos básicos de estudio que componen la asignatura Formación y Actualización de la Función Pedagógica, que se imparte en el segundo semestre del 4.º curso del Grado en Pedagogía de la UNED. Los dos textos son complementarios: el primero de ellos es de contenido teórico, y el segundo es de contenido práctico y experiencial. En el libro se aportan relatos biográficos (vivenciales) que muestran los aspectos más relevantes de la formación de los docentes y profesionales de la orientación educativa para/en su ejercicio profesional. Los profesionales que han colaborado son, además pedagogos que actualmente se encuentran en ejercicio en diferentes Comunidades Autónomas españolas. Los relatos se han construido teniendo en cuenta una serie de indicadores-base que validan la experiencia y el desarrollo profesional de los agentes ya indicados, vertebrándose, así mismo, en torno a las cinco categorías previamente establecidas en el diseño de este segundo volumen. Mediante dichas categorías, bien a nivel docente, bien a nivel orientador, y en base a dichas experiencias, amén de su desarrollo en distintas etapas escolares, podremos categorizar dichos relatos con vistas a su pragmatismo, transferencia a otras situaciones formativo-educativas-orientadoras, y, en definitiva, a la mejora y cualificación de todo proceso educativo. El material que ofrecemos se ha elaborado entre diferentes profesionales del campo pedagógico, docentes y orientadores educativos, y en ámbitos reglados, con el objetivo de ofrecer al estudiante un material de estudio que le incite a la reflexión, la valoración y a la construcción del conocimiento que requiere la acción y función del profesional de la Pedagogía en distintos ámbitos educativos (escolares).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La incertidumbre que caracteriza los tiempos actuales y venideros y las múltiples consecuencias de su influencia (a nivel individual y colectivo) se constituyen en fuente de formación y confrontación para los investigadores. De manera particular, las facultades de educación, comprometidas con la formación de doctores en este campo, tienen como desafío propiciar el desarrollo de propuestas que contribuyan a transformar la compleja crisis de las certezas desde la investigación, desarrollo e innovación de las dinámicas sociales, económicas, políticas, comunicativas y culturales. En atención a este desafío, este texto plantea una propuesta para la comprensión y construcción teórica de las demandas sociales que caracterizan nuestro tiempo desde una práctica narrativa, reflexiva y crítica basada en anclajes didácticos, necesarios para transitar de una construcción teórica a una autonomía de pensamiento epistémico. Así mismo, se propone una alternativa para el desarrollo de habilidades y capacidades científicas en la formación doctoral desde la pregunta ¿cómo potenciar la actitud resolutiva de los problemas de la educación y la sociedad desde la construcción de marcos teóricos?

This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El conjunto de trabajos que conforman este tomo aborda un panorama amplio delquehacer en investigación educativa, actividad profesional que, considerada como disciplina en sí misma, es relativamente reciente en algunos países, y en otros, apenas comienzan a vislumbrarse sus primeros pasos. Es decir, es un campo de conocimientos independiente de las otras que le fueron dando vida propia,como la sicología, la sociología, la antropología o la pedagogía, por mencionar las más identificadas como raíces de lo que hoy se reconoce como investigación educativa. Se integran textos que presentan el tema de la producción de conocimiento en educación en distintos escenarios con trabajos de análisis e interpretación sobre una panorámica general y trabajos que se construyen a partirde casos específicos sobre instituciones, programas, procesos y actores. La obra en su totalidad es producto de valiosos intercambios realizados entre colegas del campo de la investigación educativa en América Latina; intercambios que iniciaron como resultado de una convocatoria en el año 2008 realizada por elNúcleo de Investigaciones sobre Conocimiento y Política Educativa de Buenos Aires, Argentina, hacia colegas de Brasil, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay y México. En un esfuerzo posterior, esta obra es resultado de un financiamiento otorgadopor parte del Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (Conacyt), en México, para profundizar sobre el tema de producción de conocimiento en educación.INDICE RESUMIDO: Presentación.
