Investigar en educación: Una estrategia de formación para el cambio es el resultado de arduos y rigurosos procesos de investigación, procesos que fueron liderados por los docentes de pregrado adscritos a la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad El Bosque. Para la realización del libro, los autores contaron con la colaboración de sus estudiantes y de colegas pertenecientes a otras instituciones universitarias. La obra aporta conocimientos relevantes que podrían ayudar al profesorado a mejorar la comprensión sobre las situaciones y las problemáticas que se viven a diario en los espacios educativos. También, es una herramienta que les permitirá adquirir nuevos conocimientos y reorientar sus prácticas pedagógicas, así como sus investigaciones. De esta manera, los profesores estarán en la capacidad de hacerle frente a los retos que plantea la sociedad actual y futura.
Juan, a freelance reporter, stumbles on a scoop at the local hospital: people are dying in their sleep. Healthy married couples in the prime of life are being discovered dead in their own beds. The connection seems to be the Little Girl, an autistic child. Each time she’s been adopted by a set of foster parents, these turn up dead in their beds the next morning, with no visible cause of death. Digging deeper, Juan discovers that the Little Girl’s biological parents met an even more horrible fate... Haunting and frightening, “Sleep, Little Girl” reminds us that there are forces in the universe that should not be tempted. Sergio Bleda, author and artist of this SAF graphic novel, first gained attention for his horror comics series “The Vampire’s Dance.”
This book gathers the proceedings of the 7th International Conference, with the theme “Culture and Tourism in a Smart, Globalized and Sustainable World,” held on Hydra Island, Greece, on June 17–19, 2020, published with the support of the International Association of Cultural and Digital Tourism. Highlighting the contributions made by numerous writers to the advancement of tourism research, this book presents a critical academic discourse on sustainable practices in the smart tourism context, improving readers’ understanding of, and stimulating future debates in, this critical area. In addition to the knowledge economy and the concept of smart destinations, the book addresses new modes of tourism management and development, as well as emerging technologies, including location-based services, the Internet of things, smart cities, mobile services, gamification, digital collections and the virtual visitor, social media, social networking, and augmented reality.
We show that gender inequality decreases the variety of goods countries produce and export, in particular in low-income and developing countries. We argue that this happens through at least two channels: first, gender gaps in opportunity, such as lower educational enrollment rates for girls than for boys, harm diversification by constraining the potential pool of human capital available in an economy. Second, gender gaps in the labor market impede the development of new ideas by decreasing the efficiency of the labor force. Our empirical estimates support these hypotheses, providing evidence that gender-friendly policies could help countries diversify their economies.
This article reports on a cluster-randomized controlled trial conducted in 120 villages in rural Burkina Faso evaluating a multifaceted intervention (SELEVER) that seeks to increase poultry production by delivering training in conjunction with the strengthening of village-level institutions providing veterinary and credit services to poultry farmers. The intervention is evaluated in a sample of 1,080 households surveyed following two years of program implementation. Households exposed to the intervention significantly increase their use of poultry inputs (veterinary services, enhanced feeds, and deworming), and report more poultry sold and higher revenue; however, there is no evidence of an increase in profits. This evidence is consistent with the hypothesis that the return to inputs in the poultry market may not be sufficient to counterbalance the market costs of these inputs.
