Este libro pone el foco en el valor y aportación que hacen las redes para la inclusión social y educativa. Se incluyen reflexiones sobre qué es trabajar en red, qué papel están jugando hoy las relaciones para el trabajo en el sector educativo y social, y cómo esta tarea parte de la corresponsabilidad de diferentes agentes. El contenido está distribuido en tres grandes bloques: redes de inclusión social, redes de inclusión educativa y redes comunitarias. Se han recopilado dieciocho experiencias, reflexiones y proyectos de ámbito nacional e internacional en los que se han creado, mantenido y alimentado redes de diferentes agentes, instituciones y colectivos, que trabajan en pro y par...

La prensa pedagógica adopta formatos muy diferentes. Es la que producen los profesores de primaria y secundaria, y los de universidad, pero también es la prensa de los niños en las escuelas primarias, de los adolescentes en los colegios e institutos, y de los estudiantes universitarios en Colegios Mayores o asociaciones estudiantiles. A estos campos tan diferentes, pero complementarios, se van dedicando diferentes estudios, congresos y monografías desde hace ya algunos años, y en concreto desde la iniciativa investigadora y difusora del GIR Helmantica Paideia, de la Universidad de Salamanca. La colección Aquilafuente de Ediciones de la Universidad de Salamanca ha editado varios de esto...

La domanda sulla soggettivazione, ossia sui percorsi unici e irripetibili per “diventare ciò che si è”, non costituisce solo l’oggetto di questo libro collettaneo, ma rappresenta soprattutto quella che, secondo i suoi autori, potrebbe essere individuata come la cifra peculiare di questo tempo di passaggio. Come cambia una visione del mondo al cambiare delle coordinate culturali di una società e delle sue rappresentazioni? Come accade che un immaginario condiviso attecchisca e soppianti quello precedente? Come leggere le improvvise transizioni di valori, di etiche, di modalità relazionali che in pochissimi anni sembrano aver fatto tabula rasa di tutto ciò che era dato per acquisito...
At present only one child in a hundred goes to university from care. The findings of the research reported here suggest that, given the chance, far more of these young people have the potential to benefit from higher education. Local authorities, schools and universities should work together to raise aspirations and provide the financial, practical and emotional support that is needed. Going to University from Care is the final report of the five-year 'By Degrees' study, which followed three successive groups of young people entering higher education from a background in local authority care. The research was commissioned by the Frank Buttle Trust, which has a long history of providing grant aid to children in adversity and those lacking family support, and particularly of promoting their education, including supporting students and trainees in further and higher education. 'By Degrees' is designed to influence policy and practice at national and local levels.
Children in out-of-home care (OHC) have higher risks for developing poorer health and school achievement, being subjected to more abuse experiences, as well as negative long-term outcomes related to occupational performance, socioeconomic status, addiction, and criminality. Research related to OHC children is fragmented and the effects of interventions are under-studied. This thesis aimed to explore health, abuse, support, and preconditions for school among children in OHC and to assess changes after an intervention targeting foster children’s school performance. Paper I compared OHC pupils in last year high school to non-OHC peers in a national survey with 5 839 pupils. The study showed t...

How can social workers and agencies best support young people as they make the transition from care to independent living? This authoritative study investigates the successes and failures of care services for young people, identifying factors that hinder effective transition from care and the types of support that help to promote positive life choices. Analysing current policy and drawing on the findings of past research, the authors explore the experiences of young people leaving the care of three very different Scottish local authorities to demonstrate how support works in practice. They address the impact of throughcare and aftercare services, and argue for a more gradual transition towards independence, combined with more consistent and ongoing support after young people leave care. This book draws on the Scottish context to offer valuable lessons that are important reading for all students and practitioners in the fields of social care and social policy, and other professionals interested in the development of childcare practice.
