Handbook of Research on Using Disruptive Methodologies and Game-Based Learning to Foster Transversal Skills
As new technologies and professional profiles emerge, traditional education paradigms have to be adapted to new scenarios, creating favorable conditions for promoting transversal skills among students. Consequently, there is a growing demand for training in emergent skills to solve problems of different natures, distributive leadership competencies, empathy, ability to control emotions, etc. In this sense, one of the challenges that educators of all different educational levels and training contexts have to face is to foster these skills in their courses. To overcome these obstacles, innovative and disruptive methodologies, such as game-based learning activities like escape rooms, can be a g...
Metodologías activas para la enseñanza universitaria
Los métodos pedagógicos, o metodologías de enseñanza y aprendizaje, se encuentran actualmente en un momento álgido. Hoy en día proliferan por las revistas científicas y las redes sociales métodos pedagógicos activos, en donde el estudiante asume el rol principal en su proceso de aprendizaje. Este libro trata de mostrar las diversas metodologías pedagógicas que se utilizan en el ámbito universitario, ofreciendo una amplia variedad de posibilidades. En él se aborda cada una de las metodologías activas desde una perspectiva práctica, dado que en cada capítulo se presentan los aspectos más teóricos de los diversos métodos, una propuesta práctica para su aplicación y los aspectos, tanto positivos como negativos, de su aplicación en el aula. Este manual pretende convertirse en un referente en el ámbito universitario, concretamente en el profesorado que quiera cambiar su línea metodológica y quiera comenzar a aplicar métodos pedagógicos activos e innovadores en sus procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. Además, puede servir para docentes de otras etapas educativas que quieran iniciarse en la aplicación de métodos activos de enseñanza.
Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action
Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action: Gender Response-able Labs examines teaching and research practices under feminist new materialisms, affect theories and response-ability through literary and visual products, and offers possible bridges between academia and activism to create feminist interventions in contemporary neoliberal structures. Featuring chapters from contributors across a wide range of disciplines, this book follows a methodological framework that blends traditionally opposite categories, such as theory and practice, and explores contemporary literature and films as case studies within innovative “feminist response-able labs”. In Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action readers will encounter a collaborative trans-disciplinary toolbox which can be of use to multiple disciplines and an invaluable resource to advanced undergraduate students, postgraduate researchers and scholars in literary studies, film studies, feminist theories, new materialisms, and affective pedagogies

Innovative Perspectives on Corporate Communication in the Global World
Today's global markets demand that companies of all sizes look to international markets for potential customers. The successive crises that have taken place in the last decade make the internationalization of companies essential. This situation is further aggravated in the case of SMEs, as surviving only from national markets is becoming increasingly difficult. Indeed, the economic sphere is in constant flux, which demands that companies have a great capacity for adaptation to face the new challenges of an ever more globalized and difficult market. In this context, new forms of business communication are emerging, especially through the web and new technologies. Digital marketing and the dis...
Complexity, Institutions and Public Policy
I think this is a very important book. Very few people in the social sciences write books on this topic and really do justice to complexity theory. Professor Room gives a very detailed, accurate and accessible review of complexity theory as it applies to social policy. His link with institutional theory is very appropriate and his discussion on the need for regulation (a link with complexity theory that many people would never reach) is really important and well grounded. It would be of interest to academics who really want to understand the implications of complexity theory for policy making in complex and fast-changing situations and to those undertaking advanced courses in politics, econo...
