Els ordinadors ja hi són o arribaran ben aviat a les aules. Aquest llibre ens ajudarà en els canvis que això representa en el dia a dia i que s'han de sostenir en tres grans columnes: *els continguts, les metodologies, les eines i els recursos tecnològics*. Així, veurem els continguts des d'una mirada competencial; les metodologies que han d'afavorir el pensament científic, la creativitat i la solidaritat i, finalment, les tecnologies de la informació i la comunicació. Aquestes metodologies es caracteritzen pel treball cooperatiu, l'atenció a la diversitat, la recerca, la construcció del coneixement, la creativitat i la interdisciplinarietat. A més, es donen a conèixer algunes de les eines que cal posar en mans dels nois i noies perquè facin les seves creacions, les seves tasques, perquè transformin la informació i construeixin el seu coneixement de manera autònoma
Los ordenadores ya han llegado o llegarán pronto a las aulas. Este libro nos ayudará en los cambios que esto representa en el día a día y que se deben sostener en tres grandes columnas: los contenidos, las metodologías, las herramientas y los recursos tecnológicos. Así pues, veremos los contenidos desde una mirada competencial; las metodologías que deben favorecer el pensamiento científico, la creatividad y la solidaridad y, finalmente, las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación. Estas metodologías se caracterizan por el trabajo cooperativo, la atención a la diversidad, la investigación, la construcción del conocimiento, la creatividad y la interdisciplinariedad. Además, se dan a conocer algunas de las herramientas que hay que poner en manos de los chicos y chicas para que hagan sus creaciones, sus tareas, para que transformen la información y construyan su conocimiento de manera autónoma.
Es una realidad que la innovación docente emerge cada vez más como una supracategoría dentro del campo de la enseñanza universitaria. Son múltiples los vectores y elementos que configuran ese constructo que nos anuncia cambio, modificación o novedad. Se trata de un cambio intencional, conducido en un escenario multiaxial en donde el docente universitario se mueve entre múltiples disciplinas científicas, con locus más o menos debatidos dentro de la enseñanza universitaria. De otra parte, nos encontramos con una importantísima renovación de los marcos conceptuales de carácter metodológico, tanto en un sentido estricto (métodos y técnicas específicas variadas acuden a insertars...
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
About Trees considers our relationship with language, landscape, perception, and memory in the Anthropocene. The book includes texts and artwork by a stellar line up of contributors including Jorge Luis Borges, Andrea Bowers, Ursula K. Le Guin, Ada Lovelace and dozens of others.

She also made a series of limited edition offset prints based on her Tree Drawings.
Set among a Lebanese immigrant community in the Brazilian port of Manaus, The Brothers is the story of identical twins, Yaqub and Omar, whose mutual jealousy is offset only by their love for their mother. But it is Omar who is the object of Zana's Jocasta-like passion, while her husband, Halim, feels her slipping away from him, as their beautiful daughter, Rania, makes a tragic claim on her brothers' affection. Vivid, exotic, and lushly atmospheric, The Brothers is the story of a family's disintegration, of a changing city and the culture clash between the native-born inhabitants and a new immigrant group, and of the future the next generation will make from the ruins.
This "gorgeously written" National Book Award finalist is a dazzling, heart-rending story of an oil rig worker whose closest friend goes missing, plunging him into isolation and forcing him to confront his past (NPR, One of the Best Books of the Year).

A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
