Inclusión educativa desde la universidad
Estamos ante una obra colectiva que invita a replantear preguntas y a generar nuevas respuestas sobre procesos de inclusión en espacios educativos. ¿Por qué es necesario hablar de inclusión desde la universidad? ¿Qué se necesita para lograr accesibilidad para estudiantes con ceguera, debilidad visual o sordera? ¿Qué tipo de acciones son viables para instrumentar la perspectiva de género? ¿Cómo se puede garantizar la inclusión de las personas trans? ¿Cómo se aseguran espacios libres de violencia? ¿Es posible proveer las condiciones de atención al estudiantado con vulnerabilidad mental, emocional, económica o cultural? Estas y otras preguntas son respondidas en un libro que da cuerpo, figura y nombre a todas aquellas vivencias, experiencias universitarias y actividades que acompañan la trayectoria escolar de las y los estudiantes durante su formación profesional. Estos cuestionamientos visibilizan una realidad y un discurso que requieren ser integrados de manera urgente en la discusión académica, desde donde es y debe ser posible la acción pedagógica que incluya a todas y todos.
Contribuciones a la evaluación educativa desde la formación doctoral
En cada uno de los capítulos que conforman este libro se da cuenta del marco conceptual de la tesis del alumno, que aparece como primer autor, seguido del director del proyecto y de algún miembro del comité tutorial. Esta triada de autores representa una excelente estrategia que contribuye a fortalecer la formación de los doctorandos, toda vez que les permite iniciarse (en la mayoría de los casos) en el mundo de las publicaciones académicas, con el respaldo, asesoramiento y guía de sus mentores, mucho más avezados y experimentados en estas lides. Además, esta forma de organizarse al interior del programa doctoral favorece la promoción de una cultura de colaboración y colegialidad ...
The Education System in Mexico
Over the last three decades, a significant amount of research has sought to relate educational institutions, policies, practices and reforms to social structures and agencies. A number of models have been developed that have become the basis for attempting to understand the complex relation between education and society. At the same time, national and international bodies tasked with improving educational performances seem to be writing in a void, in that there is no rigorous theory guiding their work, and their documents exhibit few references to groups, institutions and forces that can impede or promote their programmes and projects. As a result, the recommendations these bodies provide to...
Learning to Learn
For courses in Learning Strategies, First-Year Seminar, and Study Skills. Using a broad-based approach to college success that is grounded in current theory and research in cognitive and motivational psychology, this text shows students how skill AND will are both necessary for success in learning in college and throughout life. Strategy-based rather than learning-style based, it takes students from where they are currently on the skill-will continuum (high skill, low will; low skill, high will; low skill, low will; or high skill, high will), helps them develop a variety of learning strategies, tells them when to use them, and explains how to generate the energy, desire, and self-confidence to make those strategies work for them. Multiple assessments throughout help students evaluate their progress, and hands-on activities allow them to try out new strategies. Increased coverage of Life Skills is new to this edition.
What is Life?
"What Is Life?" is Nobel laureate Erwin Schrödinger's exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology. His essay, "Mind and Matter," investigates what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. "Autobiographical Sketches" offers a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings.
Positive Learning in the Age of Information
While information and communication technology has a vast influence on our lives, little is understood about its effects on the way we learn. In the Age of Information, students – consciously or not – are learning in diverse formal and informal environments from a broad variety of sources, with scientific knowledge competing against unfounded assertions, and misinformation and biased data spreading through social and mass media. The Positive Learning in the Age of Information (PLATO) program illustrated by the contributions in this book unites outstanding and highly innovative expertise on the fundamentals of information processing and human learning to investigate a new paradigm of positive learning as a vital, morally and ethically oriented approach, which is of existential importance to maintaining the civilization standards of a modern society in the digital age.
Aspects of Metaphor
Metaphor is one of the most frequently evoked but at the same time most poorly understood concepts in philosophy and literary theory. In recent years, several interesting approaches to metaphor have been presented or outlined. In this volume, authors of some of the most important new approaches re-present their views or illustrate them by means of applications, thus allowing the reader to survey some of the prominent ongoing developments in this field. These authors include Robert Fogelin, Susan Haack, Jaakko Hintikka (with Gabriel Sandu), Bipin Indurkhya and Eva Kittay (with Eric Steinhart). Their stance is in the main constructive rather than critical; but frequent comparisons of different views further facilitate the reader's overview. In the other contributions, metaphor is related to the problems of visual representation (Noël Carroll), to the open class test (Avishai Margalit and Naomi Goldblum) as well as to Wittgenstein's idea of 'a way of life' (E.M. Zemach).

Love Customs in Eighteenth-century Spain
It was customary for the wife of a nobleman in eighteenth-century Spain to be courted fervently and seemingly forever, by a man who was not her husband. This liaison, accepted and even encouraged by the husband, was presumably platonic, though that may not always have been the case. It was carried on according to a complex, if ambiguous, code of companionship and whispered conversation. With the help of a lively blend of archival documents and literary sources, Carmen Martín Gaite admits us to the intricacies of the code and unravels its significance for the women who enjoyed the attention of a cortejo, or escort. Why was the cortejo tolerated, by society and by the woman's aristocratic fam...
Curious Unions
César E. Chávez came to Oxnard, California, in 1958, twenty years after he lived briefly in the city as a child with his migrant farmworker family during the Great Depression. This time Chávez returned as the organizer of the Community Service Organization to support the unionization campaign of the United Packinghouse Workers of America. Together the two groups challenged the agricultural industry’s use of braceros (imported contract laborers) who displaced resident farmworkers. The Mexican and Mexican American populations in Oxnard were involved in cultural struggles and negotiations long before Chávez led them in marches and active protests. Curious Unions explores the ways in which...
