Paula Alejandra Díaz, Profesora de EGB I y II egresada del Instituto N° 112, San Miguel; Grafóloga egresada del Instituto Superior Emerson; Psicopedagoga egresada del Instituto Santo Tomás de Aquino; estudiante de la Licenciatura en Psicopedagogía de la Universidad de Flores. La temática "redacciones de actas e informes escolares" es una constante en el ámbito educativo, donde la frase "dejar todo por escrito" se escucha a diario, siendo en ocasiones el punto de partida del cual dependen las acciones a seguir de los distintos actores dentro y fuera de las instituciones. Este libro brinda conceptos teóricos básicos sobre estos escritos, además de tips a tener en consideración a la hora de la redacción, ejemplos concretos y actividades prácticas para trabajar con docentes y estudiantes del nivel terciario. Los objetivos principales de esta obra consisten en ofrecer estrategias para la escritura de informes y actas escolares y, por otro lado, dar mayor relevancia a los escritos, sin tomarlos a la ligera, ya que esto podría traer consecuencias negativas en las acciones que continúen luego de la presentación de los documentos.

Cause Lawyers and Social Movements seeks to reorient scholarship on cause lawyers, inviting scholars to think about cause lawyering from the perspective of those political activists with whom cause lawyers work and whom they seek to serve. It demonstrates that while all cause lawyering cuts against the grain of conventional understandings of legal practice and professionalism, social movement lawyering poses distinctively thorny problems. The editors and authors of this volume explore the following questions: What do cause lawyers do for, and to, social movements? How, when, and why do social movements turn to and use lawyers and legal strategies? Does their use of lawyers and legal strategies advance or constrain the achievement of their goals? And, how do movements shape the lawyers who serve them and how do lawyers shape the movements?

The links between policy ambitions, practice and housing management institutions are given particular attention. Thus the book is primarily concerned with how ambitions about energy efficiency are carried forward in investment decisions at the housing estate level. Technical and financial issues relevant for this are als...
