New Pedagogical Challenges in the 21st Century
The societies of the twenty-first century are subject to social, cultural, political, and economic changes. In this context, the school is asked to educate the future citizens in the present. To respond to this kaleidoscopic reality, the school is immersed in a pedagogical revolution. In this book, the reader will find a selection of avant-garde research works from different disciplines and contexts, which have their epicenter in the school and in the faculties of education. New issues in pedagogy and education, and new roles of teachers and students, are discussed in a global and diverse context. And new methodological and formative proposals are also proposed to build the ideal school and the ideal teacher, from the initial and continuous teacher training.
Advanced Learning and Teaching Environments
In a plural, complex, and diverse society, the school faces many challenges. Teachers must prepare their students for future professions, unthinkable nowadays, and the digital competences of teachers and students are one of the axes of an advanced school. This book presents a set of works rigorously elaborated by authors of different disciplines, on the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in educational centers and on the use of digital resources in the initial and continuing teacher training to improve them, as well as in the teaching of different subjects to achieve a better academic and social performance of students. Besides, the reader will find some innovative experiences in physical education to achieve a better physical, emotional, and social performance of students.
Educational Leadership in Changing Times
The 21st century is characterised by continuous changes which place huge demands on leaders in educational settings, requiring them to face change before they are engulfed by it. This book provides advice and guidance on how to lead effectively in times that also feature added complexity which, together, could fundamentally change the way in which we organise and deliver learning. The contributors are experienced and outstanding leaders from a wide range of educational settings including state, independent and international organisations. All contributors have been members of the MBA Educational Leadership (International), run by the UCL Centre for Educational Leadership at the London Institute of Education (Top-ranked Faculty of Education in the world for last eleven years). This book will be invaluable for scholars and students in postgraduate programmes in educational leadership. Organised into two sections, it provides an overview from multiple perspectives of the changes already apparent before offering case studies from a variety of settings.
Migrants and Religion: Paths, Issues, and Lenses
Despite the worldwide dramatic spread of religious-based discriminations, persecutions, and conflicts, both official data and academic literature have underestimated their role as a root cause of contemporary migrations. This multidisciplinary study aims to overcome this gap. Through an unprecedented collection of theoretical analysis and original empirical evidence, the book provides unique data and insights on the role of religion in the trajectories of asylum seekers and migrants – from the analysis of the religious geography of sending countries to the role of spirituality as a factor of resilience and adaptation. By enhancing both academic and political debate on these issues, the boo...

Lifelong and lifewide learning and education: Spagna e Italia a confronto
Le società attuali sono sempre più caratterizzate da complessità e improvvisi cambiamenti nell'economia, nelle tecnologie, nelle politiche, nelle relazioni sociali, nei bisogni educativi. Nell’ultimo decennio, inoltre, la crisi economica ha influenzato innanzitutto il mercato del lavoro caratterizzandolo ancora di più da complessità, precarietà e difficoltà di ingresso, soprattutto per i giovani. Inoltre, le povertà, non soltanto economica ma anche culturale e educativa, stanno affliggendo in misura preoccupante gran parte dei paesi europei, con ingenti rischi anche di esclusione sociale, così come le problematiche legate ai migranti e all’intercultura. In tale scenario, il lifelong and lifewide learning and education, cui si è di recente aggiunta anche la dimensione lifedeep, sono diventati di importanza cruciale per il benessere sostenibile sia delle persone sia delle società. Il volume contiene contributi che approfondiscono tali tematiche. Un focus particolare è dedicato alle politiche educative, realtà e pratiche, problematiche e prospettive in Spagna e in Italia, in una dimensione di dialogo e di confronto attivo e costruttivo.

Il riconoscimento delle competenze degli immigrati adulti subsahariani
Il volume “Il riconoscimento delle competenze degli immigrati adulti subsahariani” presenta una ricerca empirica nell’area dell’educazione degli adulti ed è stata svolta con la finalità di individuare teorie, metodi, prassi e strumenti che possano efficacemente rispondere all’esigenza degli immigrati adulti subsahariani di ottenere il riconoscimento e la valorizzazione di quanto appreso nei percorsi di studio, ma soprattutto delle competenze acquisite in contesti non formali e informali nei paesi di origine e di transito, al fine di una effettiva inclusione educativa. Il metodo di ricerca adottato è di tipo qualitativo e partecipativo, col fine di analizzare in profondità la complessa questione dell’apprendimento esperienziale degli adulti immigrati e il tema della valorizzazione delle competenze così acquisite, con l’obiettivo di favorire una effettiva inclusione educativa di tipo personalizzato.
Vozes do pluriverso
A obra Vozes do Pluriverso constitui um experimento coletivo de imaginação-intelectual que reúne sentipensamentos, corazonamentos e sentidos expandidos do que a academia tem chamado decolonialidade. Sua principal contribuição é pensar-refletir sobre práticas educativas decoloniais e antirracistas desde a experiência e em diálogo com vozes, sujeitos e epistêmes frequentemente desperdiçadas nas engrenagens de poder/ser/saber do eurocentrismo. O pluriverso, que dá nome à obra, é consubstanciado na pluralidade de temas, estilos de escrita e loci enunciação das/os autoras/es, posicionados em diversos territórios de aprendizagem: universidade, escola, comunidades quilombolas, retireiras, ribeirinhas, extrativistas e de terreiro. A partir de referenciais acadêmicos, afrodiaspóricos e indígenas, essas intelectualidades formulam sentidos de educar/conhecer/saber enquanto experiências essencialmente colaborativas e, ao mesmo tempo, corpóreas, afetivas, espirituais, estéticas e cognitivas.
