Una historia difícil de narrar
El presente libro analiza las ideas y concepciones acerca del periodo histórico de La Violencia presentes en los textos escolares de ciencias sociales de grado noveno publicados en Colombia entre 1989 y 2012. La investigación se fundamentó metodológicamente en el análisis de contenido de tipo cualitativo, enfoque a través del cual se analizaron los discursos escritos y visuales que fundamentan las explicaciones históricas que desarrollan estos dispositivos pedagógicos en torno a La Violencia. A través del aparato crítico desarrollado se establece que, pese al avance curricular que significó la aparición de La Violencia como tema oficial a ser estudiado, las explicaciones propuest...
Entre ausencias y presencias ausentes
Entre ausencias y presencias ausentes analiza las representaciones sociales a través de las cuales se (in)visibiliza la dimensión histórica de lo negro, en las explicaciones acerca del periodo colonial que proponen los textos escolares de ciencias sociales publicados en Colombia desde 1991 hasta la actualidad. El estudio de dichos dispositivos pedagógicos se apoya en tres núcleos de discusión: la ausencia de África y la diáspora africana como referentes históricos; las concepciones esencialistas acerca de la esclavitud, y las nociones restringidas de mestizaje. Estos núcleos evidencian la con_x001f_figuración de una serie de distancias y tensiones entre los planteamientos históricos establecidos en los textos escolares y las reivindicaciones educativas alrededor de la valoración de la multietnicidad y la pluriculturalidad que se dan en Colombia a partir de 1991.

History
Without denying the importance of the postmodernist approach to the narrative form and rhetorical strategies of historiography, the author, one of Germany's most prominent cultural historians, argues here in favor of reason and methodical rationality in history. He presents a broad variety of aspects, factors and developments of historical thinking from the 18th century to the present, thus continuing, in exemplary fashion, the tradition of critical self-reflection in the humanities and looking at historical studies as an important factor of cultural orientation in practical life. Jörn Rüsen was Professor of Modern History at Universities Bochum and Bielefeld for many years. From 1994 to 1997 he was Director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF) at Bielefeld. Since 1997 he has been President of the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities Essen (Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut). He specialises in theory and methodology of historical sciences, the history of historiography, intercultural aspects of historical thinking, theory of historical learning, and the history of human rights.
Assessing Historical Thinking and Understanding
Assessing Historical Thinking and Understanding advocates for a fundamental change in how educators think about making sense of learners’ developing cognition and understanding in history. Author Bruce VanSledright argues that traditional and typical standardized testing approaches are seldom up to the task of measuring the more complex understandings students are asked to attain, as they cannot fully assess what the student knows. Rather, he points forward along a path toward changes in learning, teaching, and assessing that closely aligns with the Common Core State Standards. He delves into the types of history knowledge the standards require, illustrates how they can be applied in-use in history learning contexts, and theorizes how the standards might fit together cognitively to produce deep historical understandings among students in teaching-learning contexts. By providing a variety of assessment strategies and items that align with the standards, and identifying rich, useful assessment rubrics applicable to the different types of assessments, he offers an important resource for social studies teachers and curriculum writers alike.
Freshwater Biodiversity
Fresh waters are disproportionately rich in species, and represent global hotspots of biodiversity. However, they are also hotspots of endangerment.
Developing Minds
What does research tell us about the effects of school leadership on student achievement? What specific leadership practices make a real difference in school effectiveness? How should school leaders use these practices in their day-to-day management of schools and during the stressful times that accompany major change initiatives? Robert J. Marzano, Timothy Waters, and Brian A. McNulty provide answers to these and other questions in School Leadership That Works. Based on their analysis of 69 studies conducted since 1970 that met their selection criteria and a recent survey of more than 650 building principals, the authors have developed a list of 21 leadership responsibilities that have a si...
