La Sociedad actual se encuentra en constante redefinición para afrontar los vertiginosos cambios planteados por el desarrollo de las tecnologías y la diversificación de sus usos. Esto demanda la puesta en marcha de modelos pedagógicos más flexibles, dinámicos, creativos e innovadores, por lo que el esquema educativo no se podrá desarrollar con unas metodologías exclusivamente tradicionales. Es hora de cambiar, las metodologías docentes evolucionan y pasan a convertirse en metodologías activas tales como la pedagogía inversa, el conectivismo, el aprendizaje social y experiencial, etc., que garantizan la calidad de la enseñanza, y donde el alumnado es el protagonista de los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Este libro se propone con la finalidad de dar a conocer experiencias sobre usos y beneficios de estas nuevas modalidades educativas y proponer la reflexión entre los profesionales de la educación.

Although leadership theories have evolved to reflect changing social contexts, many remain silent on issues of equity, diversity, and social justice. Diversity and Leadership, by Jean Lau Chin and Joseph E. Trimble, offers a new paradigm for examining leadership by bringing together two domains—research on leadership and research on diversity—to challenge existing notions of leadership and move toward a diverse and global view of society and its institutions. This compelling book delivers an approach to leadership that is inclusive, promotes access for diverse leaders, and addresses barriers that narrowly confine our perceptions and expectations of leaders. Redefining leadership as global and diverse, the authors impart new understanding of who our leaders are, the process of communication, exchange between leaders and their members, criteria for selecting, training, and evaluating leaders in the 21st century, and the organizational and societal contexts in which leadership is exercised.

"A publisher in New York asked me to write down what I know about the Greek gods, and I was like, Can we do this anonymously? Because I don't need the Olympians mad at me again. But if it helps you to know your Greek gods, and survive an encounter with them if they ever show up in your face, then I guess writing all this down will be my good deed for the week." So begins Percy Jackson's Greek Gods, in which the son of Poseidon adds his own magic--and sarcastic asides--to the classics. He explains how the world was created, then gives readers his personal take on a who's who of ancients, from Apollo to Zeus. Percy does not hold back. "If you like horror shows, blood baths, lying, stealing, backstabbing, and cannibalism, then read on, because it definitely was a Golden Age for all that." Dramatic full-color illustrations throughout by Caldecott Honoree John Rocco make this volume--a must for home, library, and classroom shelves--as stunning as it is entertaining.
