Download or read book Diagn stico pedag gico written by Pascual Gómez, Isabel and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La finalidad de este libro es difundir el interés del diagnóstico pedagógico en la etapa de educación infantil. El diagnóstico es fundamental para conocer los fenómenos educativos con rigor, y constituye un paso previo necesario para intervenir adecuadamente sobre ellos. Los contextos educativos se han transformado como consecuencia de cambios sociales, económicos y tecnológicos, y en este escenario resulta cada vez más necesario su presencia activa y colaborativa en los contextos escolares y extraescolares. Se trata de realizar un diagnóstico no limitado en exclusiva a la detección de problemas organizativos, curriculares o técnicos de la educación, sino a la prevención, la individualización y la mejora de la calidad del proceso educativo. El libro se divide en dos partes. Los cuatro primeros capítulos son de carácter más general y sirven como punto de partida y reflexión sobre la definición y delimitación del diagnóstico pedagógico. Por este motivo, se desarrollará: una breve revisión histórica que permita comprender qué elementos han favorecido su configuración y desarrollo; una delimitación conceptual que clarifique conceptos afines y/o disciplinas afines al diagnóstico; una descripción de los contenidos y funciones; y por último, una presentación de las técnicas y los procedimientos de recogida de información en el proceso. Los siguientes capítulos están dedicados a las especificidades propias del diagnóstico en la etapa de educación infantil, así como a la descripción de las técnicas de observación sistemática que pueden aplicarse tanto en la evaluación como en el diagnóstico en esta etapa.

Download or read book Supporting Activist Practices in Education written by Ramsay-Jordan, Natasha N. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's educational landscape, a pressing issue looms: deeply entrenched within the system are the prevailing cultural norms that have historically perpetuated the dominance of white, middle-class values. This has, in turn, marginalized and stigmatized traditionally underrepresented student cultures as inherently deficient. As the United States educational system grapples with a dramatic increase in low-income, non-white, and linguistically diverse students, now is the time to confront these inequalities that undermine student achievement. This challenge has thrust teachers into the forefront, compelling them to embrace social justice practices in their classrooms as counternarratives. Supporting Activist Practices in Education emerges as a timely and essential solution to address this educational conundrum. Within the pages of this book, a compelling narrative unfoldsone that delves deep into the experiences of educators who actively employ teaching as a form of activism, transcending traditional norms. Teaching through activism, as defined in this volume, represents the courageous actions of educators who champion participatory citizenship for social justice within their classrooms, nurturing environments that foster critical thinking about the world. This book emphasizes the imperative of challenging and dismantling systemic injustices, and it underscores the pivotal role of social justice as a framework for effective pedagogical practices.

Download or read book Teorizando en educaci n entre erudici n poes a y opinionitis written by Enric Prats and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Podríamos convenir que en el cruce de la erudición, la ficción y la tertulia se vantejiendo las creencias y los supuestos a partir de los que cada cual forma su teoría educativa. Nos tememos que unas pueden tener más peso que otras: quizás las últimas, con su potencia mediática, sean más suculentas y de consumo rápido; seguramente las literarias tienen un alto poder explicativo y resultan siempre muy atractivas; sin duda, las eruditas suelen ser más aburridas y se alejan del gran público. En cualquier caso, lo que resulta notorio es que el bosquejo de la educación no es exclusivo de ninguna de estas aproximaciones teóricas: ni el sabio ni el artista ni el opinador amateur o profesional pueden atribuirse la exclusividad sobre la verdad en educación. Este libro debe leerse como una defensa corporativa de la pedagogía y está dedicado a sus practicantes, pedagogos y pedagogas –de ambos sexos, como exige la corrección política–, que se esfuerzan, también desde la buena fe, por intentar entender mejor la cosa educativa, quizás los más inofensivos, o por sugerir alivios para los males que la aquejan, los más atrevidos, fabricando las pócimas y los remedios más variados, no siempre del todo inocuos
Download or read book Education Disability and Inclusion written by Ignacio Calderón-Almendros and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes the experience of Rafael Calderón-Almendros (the first person with Down syndrome to obtain a professional music degree in Spain) and his family. A confrontation arose with his school at the end of his compulsory secondary education stage. After Rafael had been a student in the centre from the start of his education, the institution lost its vision and denied the student his rights. The school used concealed segregation strategies, legitimized by the institution and its professionals, which were almost insurmountable. However, Rafael’s family embarked on a process of Action Research, began to fight for the recognition of the right for all students to obtain a formal education. This research shows how critical analyses were born from the experiences of a representative of one of the most disadvantaged groups (disabled people), which have been rigorously recorded and evidenced. From an inclusive, engaged and radical perspective, the text presents a solid case of someone outside the able-dominated average completing his education to a high professional standard. His success is endorsed by subsequent events: Rafael passed his compulsory secondary education, the equivalent of the English Baccalaureate and his Elementary and Professional Grades of Music (ten years). He obtained the Gold Medal of Merit in Education of Andalusia and the World Down Syndrome Day Award. He was admitted to the prestigious Academy of Orchestral Studies Barenboim-Said. Rafael has nothing else to prove. Today, his example challenges many of the usual school practices and urges us to rethink the commitment of educators in stimulating the participation of the entire school community, in promoting student autonomy and the recognition of others in their human and social rights.

Download or read book New Organic Architecture written by David Pearson and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 1308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Organic Architecture is a manifesto for building in a way that is both aesthetically pleasing and kinder to the environment. It illuminates key themes of organic architects, their sources of inspiration, the roots and concepts behind the style, and the environmental challenges to be met. The organic approach to architecture has an illustrious history, from Celtic design, Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts, to the work of Antoni Gaud� and Frank Lloyd Wright. Today there is a response to a new age of information and ecology; architects are seeking to change the relationship between buildings and the natural environment. In the first part of his book, David Pearson provides a history and assessment of organic architecture. The second part comprises statements from thirty architects from around the world whose work is based on natural or curvilinear forms rather than the straight-line geometrics of modernism. Each statement is accompanied by full-color illustrations of one or several of the architects' built projects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La investigación es preguntar y saber lo que pregunto... no es esperar respuestas, sino adquirir conocimiento. Este libro surge de la necesidad de presentar a docentes y estudiantes de Maestrías y Doctorados, ejemplos de lineamientos básicos investigativos de enfoque cualitativo. Considerando que la investigación es creación, propuesta, desafío, nunca la verdad, se muestran cuatro tesis doctorales realizadas en los últimos años en tres países y contextos académicos distintos. Hay elementos que se repiten en cada tesis -son los fundamentos de la investigación cualitativa que, de una u otra manera, deben estar presentes en todo el enfoque. Y, al mismo tiempo, hay diferencias en la manera como cada autor abordó su proyecto. Ahí está la riqueza de este trabajo.
Download or read book Fracaso escolar y desventaja sociocultural written by Calderón Almendros, Ignacio and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hemos construido la pedagogía al margen de las personas para las que se dirige. Las políticas educativas se centran ahora en grandes cifras, extraídas de enormes herramientas estadísticas omnipresentes a lo largo y ancho del planeta, que comparan realidades radicalmente diferentes y desiguales sin ningún pudor. Como respuesta a esta realidad y de forma casi residual, se han ido creando en las últimas décadas estudios que buscan «dar voz» a quienes no la tienen.Sin embargo, todas las personas tienen voz, aunque algunas no han sido oídas mínimamente. Por tanto, el primer paso para estudiar sus realidades es reconocer sus voces y el valor de lo que dicen. En el fracaso escolar, por ejemplo, algo tendrán que decir quienes lo sufren?

Download or read book Educational Innovation to Address Complex Societal Challenges written by Segarra, Jacobo Roda and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In modern education, students and teaching methodologies face many challenges that hinder smooth development. The digital age presents students with information overload, impeding the cultivation of their critical thinking skills. Traditional language teaching methods must be revised to prepare students for the intricacies of a globalized, multilingual world. The rise in academic demands contributes to heightened stress levels among students. Despite the urgency of environmental challenges, educational systems need a cohesive focus on eco-conscious practices. The abrupt transition to virtual learning during crises has exposed challenges in adapting to and fully realizing the potential of virtual environments. These interrelated issues underscore the imperative for a comprehensive solution that aligns pedagogical practices with the demands of contemporary society. Educational Innovation to Address Complex Societal Challenges begins by dissecting pedagogical renewal and educational innovation, illustrating their expansive reach and adaptability in addressing the diverse educational challenges of our time. It emphasizes that these innovative elements extend beyond mere educational enhancements, presenting many opportunities to catalyze substantial societal change. A crucial aspect highlighted is the reciprocal relationship between educational practices and social reality, creating a symbiotic circle that adds meaning to the educational process.
