El aporte de esta obra a la discusión se da frente al punto central que es la relación entre la formación y las prácticas pedagógicas que desarrollan los profesores, lo cual suscita otro debate central, y es el de la calidad educativa. Esta publicación es una evidencia de la capacidad, responsabilidad, pasión y compromiso de estas maestras investigadoras en Colombia; una semilla y un estímulo para continuar por la senda de la construcción y la producción de conocimiento en nuestras instituciones educativas, que contribuya a la solución de los problemas que en nuestro contexto se presentan. El libro destaca la importancia del trabajo colaborativo y cooperativo para avanzar en la ruta de la calidad de la educación, aportando intrínsecamente a la enseñanza, el aprendizaje y el fortalecimiento de nuestras políticas educativas.
La educación es un tema que ha empezado a ocupar lugares cada vez más importantes de la agenda pública, y una de las discusiones centrales es la que gira en torno al desarrollo profesional del docente. La pregunta cómo lograr que los maestros desarrollen competencias disciplinares, pedagógicas y didácticas para promover mejores aprendizajes en sus estudiantes ha generado múltiples iniciativas, entre estas, las Becas para la Excelencia Docente del Ministerio de Educación Nacional, programa del que formó parte la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad Externado de Colombia, con su Maestría en Profundización. Este libro nace como una compilación de los resultados de dicha Maestrí...
The year 1879 marked the beginning of one of the longest, bloodiest conflicts of nineteenth-century Latin America. The War of the Pacific pitted Peru and Bolivia against Chile in a struggle initiated over a festering border dispute. The conflict saw Chile's and Peru's armored warships vying for control of sea lanes and included one of the first examples of the use of naval torpedoes.

Glen Furuta and Dan Atkins have assembled an in-depth look at Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases as related to allergy with topics such as "Basic pathogenetic mechanisms of Eosinophilic Esophagitis", "Nutritional management of patients with food allergies and EGIDs", "Chemotactic factors role in EGIDs", "Biomarkers associated with allergic diseases", "Association of other allergic diseases with EGIDs" and much more!
This account of Lucia Joyce, daughter of James Joyce, explores the relationship between them as well as their deep creative bond. Even after emotional turmoil wrought havoc with her sanity, her father still saw her life as one lived in tandem with his own.
Rodent Malaria reviews significant findings concerning malaria parasites of rodents, including their taxonomy, zoogeography, and evolution, along with life cycles and morphology; genetics and biochemistry; and concomitant infections. This volume is organized into eight chapters and begins by sketching out the history of the discovery of rodent as well as aspects of parasitology, immunology, and chemotherapy. These concepts are investigated two decades following Ignace Vincke's major discovery and Meir Yoeli's successful establishment of the method of cyclical transmission of the parasite. The following chapters focus on the taxonomy and systematics of the subgenus Vinckeia, with reference to...
Higher education has changed significantly over time. In particular, traditional face-to-face degrees are being revamped in a bid to ensure they stay relevant in the 21st century and are now offered online. The transition for many universities to online learning has been painful—only exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, forcing many in-person students to join their virtual peers and professors to learn new technologies and techniques to educate. Moreover, work has also changed with little doubt as to the impact of digital communication, remote work, and societal change on the nature of work itself. There are arguments to be made for organizations to become more agile, flexible, entreprene...
Running waters are enormously diverse, ranging from torrential mountain brooks, to large lowland rivers, to great river systems whose basins occupy subcontinents. While this diversity makes river ecosystems seem overwhelmingly complex, a central theme of this volume is that the processes acting in running waters are general, although the settings are often unique. The past two decades have seen major advances in our knowledge of the ecology of streams and rivers. New paradigms have emerged, such as the river continuum and nutrient spiraling. Community ecologists have made impressive advances in documenting the occurrence of species interactions. The importance of physical processes in rivers...
Precision Public Health is a new and rapidly evolving field, that examines the application of new technologies to public health policy and practice. It draws on a broad range of disciplines including genomics, spatial data, data linkage, epidemiology, health informatics, big data, predictive analytics and communications. The hope is that these new technologies will strengthen preventive health, improve access to health care, and reach disadvantaged populations in all areas of the world. But what are the downsides and what are the risks, and how can we ensure the benefits flow to those population groups most in need, rather than simply to those individuals who can afford to pay? This is the first collection of theoretical frameworks, analyses of empirical data, and case studies to be assembled on this topic, published to stimulate debate and promote collaborative work.
