History Education in the Digital Age
This book reflects on how teachers and students use new technologies in classroom settings in order to improve the capacity of teaching and learning in history to successfully meet the challenges of the twenty-first century through a complex understanding of the relation between past and present. Key authors in the field from Europe and the Americas present a comprehensive overview of the central questions at the heart of the book. They contribute to this process of reflection by taking diverse methodological, pedagogical and conceptual approaches to analyse the ways in which digital tools could advance the development of historical comprehension in the fields of formal and informal history education in different settings as schools, museums, exhibitions, sites of memory, videogames and films. Drawing together a disciplinary diversity that approaches the topic from the viewpoints of collective memory, global history, historical thinking and historical consciousness, the book’s cutting-edge content offers interested academics and practitioners with a broad-based view on the current state of debate in this area, examined via theoretical exploration in-depth case analysis.
Engaging the Past
Engaging the Past: Action and Interaction in the History Classroom provides practical steps toward using engaging strategies in the classroom to teach students to think historically. These strategies include an approach developed by the author called “The You Decide! Lecture,” and innovative ways to use board games and role-playing games in the history classroom. The goal is not simply to add window dressing to fundamentally dull lessons, but rather to re-examine how teachers think about students as learners of history. This book follows the growing trend within historical pedagogy to care less about content coverage and more about deep engagement, student learning, and the importance of historical thinking. The students in our classrooms today are the history teachers of tomorrow and awakening them to the exciting complexities of the past is critical to keep the study of history thriving.
The Development of Social Knowledge
The result of a deep research work sustained for more than two decades, this book studies the construction of social knowledge from a constructivist perspective inherited from Piagetian thought. It thus advances in a process of revision and discussion, while maintaining crucial aspects of this current for the approach to the construction of the subject and the object of knowledge, in the search for the elaboration of an explanatory theory for the formation of new knowledge. A collaborative proposal between different disciplines of potential interest for the different actors who study and intervene in this field.
Reproducing, Rethinking, Resisting National Narratives
In his now classic Voices of Collective Remembering, James V. Wertsch (2002) examines the extent to which certain narrative themes are embedded in the way the collective past is understood and national communities are imagined. In this work, Wertsch coined the term schematic narrative templates to refer to basic plots, such as the triumph over alien forces or quest for freedom, that are recurrently used, setting a national theme for the past, present and future. Whereas specific narratives are about particular events, dates, settings and actors, schematic narrative templates refer to more abstract structures, grounded in the same basic plot, from which multiple specific accounts of the past ...
Enseñar Historia en la era digital
¿Cómo se hace para enseñar historia en tiempos de redes sociales y de imparable digitalización? ¿Qué se pierde y qué se gana cuando las nuevas tecnologías llegan al aula? ¿Quién motoriza la llegada de estos nuevos formatos: el/la docente o los/as estudiantes? Enseñar Historia en la era digital presenta un conjunto de investigaciones hechas por especialistas internacionales que buscan dar respuesta a estas preguntas desde distintos ejes: por un lado, se estudian los debates históricos que se dan entre los usuarios en plataformas como TikTok y Facebook, y también se analizan los discursos históricos que propician los videojuegos. Por otro, se investigan los nuevos formatos y usos de recursos más "clásicos", como los mapas y las películas históricas. Por último, se presta una particular atención a la posibilidad de generar actividades dialógicas en el aula mediante recursos digitales, como los que proporciona la obra de Lola Arias en torno a la Guerra de Malvinas. Un libro fundamental para pensar la enseñanza en el contexto actual.
The Cambridge Handbook of Sociocultural Psychology
Sociocultural psychology is a discipline located at the crossroads between the natural and social sciences and the humanities. This international overview of the field provides an antireductionist and comprehensive account of how experience and behaviour arise from human action with cultural materials in social practices. The outcome is a vision of the dynamics of sociocultural and personal life in which time and developmental constructive transformations are crucial. This second edition provides expanded coverage of how particular cultural artefacts and social practices shape experience and behaviour in the realms of art and aesthetics, economics, history, religion and politics. Special attention is also paid to the development of identity, the self and personhood throughout the lifespan, while retaining the emphasis on experience and development as key features of sociocultural psychology.
Analysing Historical Narratives
For all of the recent debates over the methods and theoretical underpinnings of the historical profession, scholars and laypeople alike still frequently think of history in terms of storytelling. Accordingly, historians and theorists have devoted much attention to how historical narratives work, illuminating the ways they can bind together events, shape an argument and lend support to ideology. From ancient Greece to modern-day bestsellers, the studies gathered here offer a wide-ranging analysis of the textual strategies used by historians. They show how in spite of the pursuit of truth and objectivity, the ways in which historians tell their stories are inevitably conditioned by their discursive contexts.

Hacia una dialéctica entre individuo y cultura en la construcción de conocimientos sociales
Fruto de un profundo trabajo de investigación sostenido desde hace más de dos décadas, el presente libro indaga acerca de la construcción del conocimiento social desde una perspectiva constructivista heredera del pensamiento piagetiano. Se avanza así en un proceso de revisión y discusión, aunque sosteniendo aspectos cruciales de dicha corriente para el abordaje de la construcción del sujeto y el objeto de conocimiento, en la búsqueda de la elaboración de una teoría explicativa para la formación de nuevos conocimientos. Una propuesta colaborativa entre diversas disciplinas de potencial interés para los diferentes actores que estudian e intervienen en este campo. * * * Escriben: José Antonio Castorina, Alicia Barreiro, Tomás Baquero Cano, Daniela Bruno, Gastón Becerra, Mariana García Palacios, Mariela Helman, Axel Horn, Paula Nurit Shabel y Cristian Parellada
COMPRENDER EL MUNDO PARA (INTENTAR) TRANSFORMARLO
Nuestro propósito en esta obra es ofrecer un material de apoyo en los análisis de investigaciones cualitativas, sin ser la tarea analítica una etapa independiente y con otra lógica diferente al resto de fases de desarrollo del trabajo. Desde el inicio, somos investigadores-as cualitativos-as, tenemos la preocupación por comprender cómo otros y otras entienden el mundo y se desenvuelven en él. Situamos esta comprensión también como requisito ético y epistemológico para pensar formas de colaboración que permitan contribuir a un mundo mejor. Por eso, entendemos que la tarea de analizar puede producir cierto vértigo, pero reconocemos honestamente que no debiera ser tanto o, tal vez,...
