Handbook of Research on Teacher Education in History and Geography
It is necessary to know the opinions, practices and expectations of teachers in training and in practicing to improve teacher education programs. This book addresses the challenges in the profession of teaching history and geography. Researchers' contributions have been collected from eight countries.
Comunicar i marcar la diferència
El mercat condemna les dones periodistes, una de les professions més feminitzades, a pitjors condicions de treball i més dificultats de progressió professional que els seus companys d’ofici. A partir d’aquesta constatació, els testimonis en primera persona de 30 periodistes titulades per la Universitat de València palesen les dificultats que pateixen per a accedir a les empreses de comunicació, particularment als àmbits de més prestigi i poder. Quines barreres troben per a exercir la professió? Els mitjans, són receptius, valoren i reconeixen les maneres de les dones d’observar les realitats i de contar-les? Cal reivindicar un estil i una manera femenina d’exercir les tasques comunicatives? Les estructures organitzatives de les empreses i els discursos dominants dels mitjans, segueixen perpetuant percepcions i esquemes dominants del passat?
Sustainability in the Maritime Domain
This volume explores options for a sustainable maritime domain, including maritime transportation, such as, Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP), maritime education and training, maritime traffic and advisory systems, maritime security. Other activities in the maritime domain covered in the book include small-scale fisheries and sustainable fisheries, and greening the blue economy. The book aims to provide the building blocks needed for a framework for good ocean governance; a framework that will serve through the next decade and, and hopefully, well beyond the 2030 milepost of the UN Agenda for Sustainable Development. In short, this book brings together the problems of the current world and sus...
Wetland Carbon and Environmental Management
Explores how the management of wetlands can influence carbon storage and fluxes. Wetlands are vital natural assets, including their ability to take-up atmospheric carbon and restrict subsequent carbon loss to facilitate long-term storage. They can be deliberately managed to provide a natural solution to mitigate climate change, as well as to help offset direct losses of wetlands from various land-use changes and natural drivers. Wetland Carbon and Environmental Management presents a collection of wetland research studies from around the world to demonstrate how environmental management can improve carbon sequestration while enhancing wetland health and function. Volume highlights include: Ov...
Getting to Net-Zero Emissions: Lessons from Latin America and the Caribbean
All Latin America and the Caribbean countries have ratified the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to between 1.5C and 2C above pre-industrial levels. Those goals require reaching net-zero carbon dioxide emissions by around 2050 and substantial reductions of CO2 emissions by 2030. Getting to Net-Zero Emissions takes stock of the lessons learnt from the experiences of country teams implementing the ongoing IDB-led Deep Decarbonization Pathways in Latin America and the Caribbean Project and proposes approaches to developing and delivering long-term pathways to net-zero emissions by 2050. The report shows the essential role played by long-term strategies in terms of identifying...
Fertilizers and Environment
Food production remains the highest agricultural priority, subject to the constraint that it be done in harmony with nature, or at least with minimum environmental pollution. The amount of fertilizer applied can be controlled using modern application techniques, including soil and crop management, guaranteeing higher economic profit and lower environmental cost. It is in such a context that the present book addresses the efficient and rational use of mineral and organic fertilizers while preserving environmental quality. The book discusses the impact on surface and groundwaters, soils and crops, and experience of nitrate leaching, denitrification, ammonia volatilization, heavy metal pollution, agricultural and urban waste management, and international and national legislation. Audience: Agronomists, environmentalists, soil and food chemists, ecologists, policy makers, and managers in the fertilizer industry concerned with the trend of public opinion.
The Rating of Chess Players, Past and Present
One of the most extraordinary books ever written about chess and chessplayers, this authoritative study goes well beyond a lucid explanation of how todays chessmasters and tournament players are rated. Twenty years' research and practice produce a wealth of thought-provoking and hitherto unpublished material on the nature and development of high-level talent: Just what constitutes an "exceptional performance" at the chessboard? Can you really profit from chess lessons? What is the lifetime pattern of Grandmaster development? Where are the masters born? Does your child have master potential? The step-by-step rating system exposition should enable any reader to become an expert on it. For some...
Competencias Digitales y Mediticas para una Ciudadana Crtica
Esta publicación recoge contribuciones que presentan iniciativas, propuestas y reflexiones sobre las nuevas alfabetizaciones que se muestran significativas en la actualidad para el ejercicio de una ciudadanía crítica. Es también objeto de este simposio analizar el impacto de nuevas formas de comunicación propiciadas por dispositivos tecnológicos en la "Educación para una Ciudadanía Crítica". Por ello, uno de sus propósitos principales es visualizar y poner en valor metodologías y prácticas educativas que sirven para educar en una ciudadanía crítica a través del desarrollo de habilidades y competencias digitales y mediáticas.
