La compilación de los escritos e imágenes que integran esta obra conforma parte sustancial, clave, de la tarea iniciada por la Comisión Organizadora de las Jornadas de Prácticas de la UNPA – UACO "Construyendo experiencias desde las prácticas formativas", desarrolladas durante los días jueves 31 de agosto y viernes 1 de septiembre de 2023. Es concebida como un espacio polifónico, poblado por diversas voces, convocadas para la toma de la palabra en torno de las prácticas en la formación docente inicial desde los recorridos propuestos en dos ofertas académicas, Profesorado para la Educación Primaria y Profesorado Universitario en Ciencias de la Educación, al interior de la Unidad Académica Caleta Olivia, Universidad Nacional de la Patagonia Austral.
"Cuadernos de Residencia" es un análisis profundo sobre la intersección entre la educación teórica y la práctica docente. Coordinado por Alicia Esther Pereyra, el documento encapsula una serie de estudios y reflexiones sobre las residencias docentes, ofreciendo una visión crítica y constructiva de los desafíos y logros en la formación de educadores primarios. A través de sus páginas, lectores interesados en la educación encontrarán valiosas perspectivas sobre cómo mejorar y enfrentar los retos de enseñar en el contexto contemporáneo.
Hal Colebatch's new book, AUSTRALIA'S SECRET WAR, tells the shocking, true, but until now largely suppressed and hidden story of the war waged from 1939 to 1945 by a number of key Australian trade unions against their own society and against the men and women of their own country's fighting forces at the time of its gravest peril. His conclusions are based on a broad range of sources, from letters and first-person interviews between the author and ex-servicemen to official and unofficial documents from the archives of World War II. Between 1939 and 1945 virtually every major Australian warship, including at different times its entire force of cruisers, was targeted by strikes, go-slows and sabotage. Australian soldiers operating in New Guinea and the Pacific Islands went without food, radio equipment and munitions, and Australian warships sailed to and from combat zones without ammunition, because of strikes at home. Planned rescue missions for Australian prisoners-of-war in Borneo were abandoned because wharf strikes left rescuers without heavy weapons. Officers had to restrain Australian and American troops from killing striking trade unionists.
Dark Emu puts forward an argument for a reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer tag for pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians. The evidence insists that Aboriginal people right across the continent were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating and storing - behaviors inconsistent with the hunter-gatherer tag. Gerritsen and Gammage in their latest books support this premise but Pascoe takes this further and challenges the hunter-gatherer tag as a convenient lie. Almost all the evidence comes from the records and diaries of the Australian explorers, impeccable sources.
contemporary history, politics and law
"Convincing Ground" pulses with love of country. In this powerful, lyrical and passionate new work Bruce Pascoe asks us to fully acknowledge our past and the way those actions continue to influence our nation today, both physically and intellectually. The book resonates with ongoing debates about identity, dispossession, memory and community. Pascoe draws on the past through a critical examination of major historical works and witness accounts and finds uncanny parallels between the techniques and language used there to today's national political stage. He has written the book for all Australians, as an antidote to the great Australian inability to deal respectfully with the nation's constructed Indigenous past. For Pascoe, the Australian character was not forged at Gallipoli, Eureka and the back of Bourke, but in the furnace of Murdering Flat, Convincing Ground and Werribee. He knows we can't reverse the past, but believes we can bring in our soul from the fog of delusion. Pascoe proposes a way forward, beyond shady intellectual argument and immature nationalism, with our strengths enhanced and our weaknesses acknowledged and addressed.

"In addition to providing a much-needed resource for artists, teachers, and collectors, this book will form a bridge between book artists and their audience by providing ready access to information about a much discussed but little known art form."--Book jacket flap.
