Voces de la enseñanza de la historia
El libro tiene por objeto dar a conocer experiencias investigativas en torno a la Didáctica de la Historia, a partir de voces diversas sobre el conocimiento histórico y la práctica de la enseñanza. Estas son algunas formas de recrear y percibir el saber histórico, con base en el saber derivado del conocimiento disciplinar-histórico y la reflexión sobre la práctica de la enseñanza, con el fin de promover pensamiento histórico en la formación de futuros docentes de Enseñanza de la Historia, como se podrá ver en los cinco capítulos que lo componen. Los autores pretenden indagar en torno al saber y al saber enseñar historia, como procesos diferentes pero complementarios, que parten de la reflexión crítica sobre la naturaleza de lo histórico y de las diversas perspectivas de análisis, lo que demanda manejo crítico de conceptos, métodos y procedimientos que fomentan el conocimiento histórico en formación para la Enseñanza de la Historia. Se abordan temas sobre la didáctica de la historia en Uruguay, México, Costa Rica y Colombia, ya partir de estudios de casos se da cuenta del proceso de enseñanza de la historia en estos países.
Curriculum Theory
The Second Edition of Curriculum Theory: Conflicting Visions and Enduring Concerns by Michael Stephen Schiro presents a clear, unbiased, and rigorous description of the major curriculum philosophies that have influenced educators and schooling over the last century. The author analyzes four educational visions—Scholar Academic, Social Efficiency, Learner Centered, and Social Reconstruction—to enable readers to reflect on their own educational beliefs and more productively interact with educators who might hold different beliefs.
New Developments in the Biology of Chrysomelidae
This book summarizes what is actually known about the biology of Leaf Beetles. It is the most recent study in the field. As we are well aware, Chrysomelidae, one of the three largest families of beetles, are of great economic importance since they can be a serious pest to crops or, on the other hand, can be used to destroy imported weeds. This is due to the selectivity of their feeding preferences. In this way, Chrysomelidae are an invaluable tool for studying plant selection mechanisms. The many and varied topics dealt with in this book cover almost all aspects of phylogeny, classification, paleontology, parasitology, biogeography, defenses, population biology, genetics and biological contr...
Cryptic Female Choice in Arthropods
This timely book revisits cryptic female choice in arthropods, gathering detailed contributions from around the world to address key behavioral, ecological and evolutionary questions. The reader will find a critical summary of major breakthroughs in taxon-oriented chapters that offer many new perspectives and cases to explore and in many cases unpublished data. Many groups of arthropods such as spiders, harvestmen, flies, moths, crickets, earwigs, beetles, eusocial insects, shrimp and crabs are discussed. Sexual selection is currently the focus of numerous and controversial theoretical and experimental studies. Selection in mating and post-mating patterns can be shaped by several different m...
The Evolution of Mating Systems in Insects and Arachnids
Insects and arachnids display the most impressive diversity of mating and social behaviour among all animals. This book investigates sexual competition in these groups, and the variety of ways in which males and females pursue, persuade, manipulate, control and help one another, enabling us to gain a better understanding of how conflicts and confluences of interest evolve together. Each chapter provides a comprehensive review of mating systems in particular insect and arachnid groups, discusses intrinsic and extrinsic factors responsible for observed mating strategies, and suggests fruitful avenues for further research. The book culminates in a synthesis, reviewing the date in terms of the theory of sexual conflict. This broad-based book will be of immense value to students and researchers interested in reproductive strategies, behavioural ecology, entomology and arachnology.
A Source Book for Biographical Literature on Entomologists
This brand new addition to the secondary literature on Entomologists is a labour of love by a greatly respected entomology librarian (retired, of the Natural History Museum, London), and at the same time a very efficient tool for research into the literature references providing biographies, bibliographies, portraits, and any other details on deceased entomologists before the end of 2004. It starts with an introduction, giving information on sources, format, and references used, followed by 615 pages of references. The Supplement contains a list of the names that appear in A Compendium of the Biographical Literature on Deceased Entomologists, published in 1977, for which there are no additional references in the present work. The Addendum lists information from two historical works on entomology published in 2006, which could not be included in the main text.
