Este libro ofrece recursos al profesorado de Secundaria para abordar en clase temas científicos de enorme actualidad y relevancia, seleccionados por su calidad de fronteras de la ciencia y de potenciales promotores de revoluciones científicas: el genoma humano y sus repercusiones sociales, las células madre y el futuro de la medicina regenerativa, la nanotecnología, la química y la ciencia por la sostenibilidad. A partir de ellos se hacen propuestas de investigación muy variadas y poco convencionales, que permiten adquirir una amplia visión de lo que es la ciencia y su complejidad, conocer las distintas posturas de los investigadores, etc. Si los adolescentes participan activamente en la ciencia que hoy se está haciendo, estarán en condiciones de poner en sí mismos los cimientos de una cultura científica, llamada a progresar y consolidarse a lo largo de sus vidas. En su medida, este libro ayuda a conseguir hábitos de adquisición de información que facilitarán la propia alfabetización científica, futura y permanente.
BASIC COMPETENCES. Toward a new educational paradigm - Starting from the presentation of the basic competences in the documents emanating from the Organic Law of Education (LOE, 2006), the book takes us through the international organisms that have been in charge of the topic of competences and through the work of those experts that have intervened in the clarification of its choice and contents, to find the genesis of the eight basic competences present in the Law. Once the term is explained in its educational sense, the book is centered on the understanding of each one of the competences and its interrelation, a very important point in trying to understand what type of person this group of competences presents and its acceptance in the society which receives it, with its new challenges. An interesting aspect of the book is the close link between competences and the context and the best way of proceeding so as to make effective the mobilization of knowledge and the transfer of learning, illustrated in the book with numerous suggestions, activities and resources. Finally, the programming of the stages is attended to, including the competences among other curricular elements.
Na contemporaneidade, a educação é atravessada por convulsões de grande amplitude e radicalidade, a começar por aquelas que envolvem os seus fundamentos filosóficos, éticos e epistemológicos. Numa transmutação de matrizes de pensamento que abalam as estruturas de racionalidade que outrora orientavam a atividade pedagógica, insinua-se a questão: é possível e desejável encontrar um consenso axiológico mínimo para a educaçã que permita nortear os seus desígnios e dinamizar os seus agentes? Educação: Perspetivas e desafios centra-se nessa questão e debate-a de forma vasta e abrangente, propositadamente distanciada de múltiplos lugares-comuns que, resguardados por uma pretensa tolerância cultural, parecem manter-se inquestionáveis. Na sua heterogeneidade, os dez ensaios, que constituem a obra, enfatizam a dimensão social e moral dos intentos educativos com vista a superar leituras simplistas e redutoras da formação do humano.
Las autoras quieren introducir una perspectiva feminista en las relaciones que tienen lugar en la escuela entre los miembros de distintas culturas. La razón fundamental es que una parte significativa de los conflictos culturales que se manifiestan en las aulas son conflictos de género. La tesis que se mantiene en este libro es que los varones de todas las culturas enmascaran sus privilegios detrás de prácticas que denominan"culturales"
Thirty years passed before it was accepted, in West Germany and elsewhere, that the Roma (Germany's Gypsies) had been Holocaust victims. And, similarly, it took thirty years for the West German state to admit that the sterilisation of Roma had been part of the 'Final Solution'. Drawing on a substantial body of previously unseen sources, this book examines the history of the struggle of Roma for recognition as racially persecuted victims of National Socialism in post-war Germany. Since modern academics belatedly began to take an interest in them, the Roma have been described as 'forgotten victims'. This book looks at the period in West Germany between the end of the War and the beginning of the Roma civil rights movement in the early 1980s, during which the Roma were largely passed over when it came to compensation. The complex reasons for this are at the heart of this book.
