This book was released on 2018 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente libro muestra el análisis de la vulnerabilidad en diferentes contextos de la educación superior, al mismo tiempo que establece a la resiliencia como la posibilidad de transformar la educación superior. Se parte de que la vulnerabilidad escolar puede ser un conjunto de condiciones materiales, contextuales y simbólicas que debilita el vinculo de un estudiante con la universidad. sin embargo, también puede ser analizada desde otra perspectiva que se ubique en el potencial de las personas más que en sus carencias para transformar la cultura escolar desde la resiliencia.
Download or read book La resiliencia ciudadana del siglo XXI Una perspectiva integradora written by Reyna C. Martínez Rodríguez and published by Newton Edición y Tecnología Educativa. This book was released on 2020-09-14 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A finales de la segunda década del siglo XXI, cobra mayor importancia la resiliencia ciudadana ante la pandemia provocada por el COVID-19 que afectó considerablemente la vida planetaria; los cambios en las relaciones sociales se dieron de una manera impactante, el aislamiento físico incidió en la dinámica familiar, escolar y comunitaria. Ante estos cambios surge la emergencia de considerar a la resiliencia en todos los contextos, pues ante situaciones de riesgo y fatalidad el ser humano enfrenta miedos, pérdidas, violencia, hambre y muerte; sin embargo, una mirada resiliente puede transformar una adversidad en oportunidad de aprendizaje para que, en lugar de derrotar a las personas, vean la posibilidad de ser más fuertes. Esta obra presenta una mirada holística en torno a la importancia de la resiliencia ciudadana, por lo que dada su complejidad confluyeron diferentes enfoques para analizarla con criticidad, reflexión y discernimiento cientí- fico. Amén de lo anterior, la toma de conciencia es clave para desarrollar los procesos resilientes. En este sentido, las aportaciones de los autores se dirigen a enfatizar la importancia de valorar las experiencias de vida como aspectos centrales para la configuración de las ecologías de aprendizajes resilientes en ambientes escolares presenciales y ubicuos; se diserta en torno a la importancia de la metamorfosis de las escuelas sólidas y líquidas como clave para que se transformen en escuelas resilientes Beta, a fin de conseguir que la generación Alfa pueda complejizar la democracia y metamorfosear su mundo, resiliar su mundo, centrando la importancia en la huma- nidad y la experiencia de vida que revierta la tragedia. Asimismo, considerar no sólo su propio mundo, sino también visualizarse como un ser planetario que pueda hacer frente y recuperarse de la crisis ecológica social que compete tanto a las personas como a todo el ambiente que les rodea; por ello, la seguridad energética requiere de sistemas de energía resilientes, la ciudadanía necesita aprender a ser resiliente para tener la capacidad de utilizar los mecanismos de protección y así reducir los impactos adversos de un riesgo. Ampliar la mirada de la resiliencia permite el reconocimiento del otro como un aliado que puede tener aspectos y recursos potencialmente beneficiosos para el presente y el futuro del bienestar planetario. En consecuencia, las evidencias de resiliencia se muestran en las diferentes investigaciones que apoyan los procesos de resignificación por medio del autocuestionamiento, el cual pone de manifiesto la importancia de ese análisis, reflexión y resignificación de experiencias para descubrir puntos de fuerza y debilidad con el objetivo de superar la carencia y así fortalecer los recursos positivos con los que cuentan las personas a fin de hallar un paralelismo en la formación ciudadana como constructo dinámico, edificado en comunidad.
Download or read book University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic written by Fernando M. Reimers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach
Download or read book Educational Resilience in inner city America written by Margaret C Wang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of life in inner-city America and the education of its people is often recounted as a tragedy; the ending is often predictable and usually dire, highlighting deficiency, failure, and negative trends. As with most social problems, children and youth in the inner cities are hit hardest. But this dismal view is only half of the full picture. The cities of our nation are a startling juxtaposition between the despairing and the hopeful, between disorganization and restorative potential. Alongside the poverty and unemployment, the street-fights and drug deals, are a wealth of cultural, economic, educational, and social resources. Often ignored are the resilience and the ability for adaptation which help many who are seemingly confined by circumstance to struggle and succeed "in the face of the odds." This book helps to broaden the utilization of ways to magnify the circumstances known to enhance development and education, so that the burden of adversity is reduced and opportunities are advanced for all children and youth -- especially the children and youth of the inner cities who are in at-risk circumstances. The focus is on: * raising consciousness about the opportunities available to foster resilience among children, families, and communities, and * synthesizing the knowledge base that is central to implementing improvements which serve to better the circumstances and educational opportunities of children and families. This volume is intended for a wide audience of readers, but particularly those who are in a position to shape public policy and deliver educational and human services.

Download or read book Resiliency written by Bonnie Benard and published by WestEd. This book was released on 2004 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few years ago, resiliency theory was relatively new to the fields of prevention and education. Today, it is at the heart of hundreds of school and community programs that recognize in all young people the capacity to lead healthy, successful lives. The key, as Benard reports in this synthesis of a decade and more of resiliency research, is the role that families, schools, and communities play in supporting, and not undermining, this biological drive for normal human development. Of special interest is the evidence that resiliency prevails in most cases by far -- even in extreme situations, such as those caused by poverty, troubled families, and violent neighborhoods. An understanding of this developmental wisdom and the supporting research, Benard argues, must be integrated into adults' vision for the youth they work with and communicated to young people themselves. Benard's analysis of how best to incorporate research findings to support young people is both realistic and inspirational. It is an easy-to-read discussion of what the research has found along with descriptions of what application of the research looks like in our most successful efforts to support young people.
Download or read book EBOOK Sustaining Change in Universities written by Burton Clark and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2004-09-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ·What can be done to ensure universities are well positioned to meet the challenges of the fast moving world of the 21st century? This is the central question addressed by Burton R. Clark in this significant new volume which greatly extends the case studies and concepts presented in his 1998 book, Creating Entrepreneurial Universities. The new volume draws on case studies of fourteen proactive institutions in the UK, Europe, Australia, Latin America, Africa, and the United States that extend analysis into the early years of the twenty-first century. The cumulative international coverage underpins a more fully developed conceptual framework offering insight into ways of initiating and sustaining change in universities. This new conceptual framework shifts attention from transformation to sustainability rooted in a constructed steady state of change and a collegial approach to entrepreneurialism. It contains key elements necessary for universities to adapt successfully to the modern world. Lessons for reform can be drawn directly from both the individual case studies and the general framework. Overall the book offers a new form of university organization that is more self-reliant and manages to combine change with continuity, traditional academic values with new managerial values. Essential reading for university administrators, faculty members, students and researchers analysing higher education, and educational policymakers worldwide, this book advocates a highly proactive approach to university change and specifies a new basis for university self- reliance. Burton R. Clark is Allan M. Cartter Professor Emeritus of Higher Education and Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles. During his career, he has taught at five leading US universities: Stanford, Harvard, Berkeley, Yale and UCLA. He has published widely on the nature of university organization and the realistic possibilties of reform, linking research for understanding with research for use.
