Ofrece experiencias prácticas de integración de los ODS en la docencia universitaria. En ellas se utilizan estrategias como la sensibilización, la integración específica y la transversalización, que van asociadas al uso de metodologías activas [BIC]; por ejemplo, el aprendizaje-servicio, el aprendizaje orientado a proyectos, el aprendizaje basado en problemas y el método de casos. En el volumen también se plantean recomendaciones que pueden ser útiles para incluir los ODS en la enseñanza-aprendizaje. Es un libro dirigido al profesorado universitario de cualquier ámbito de conocimiento puesto que los planteamientos son extrapolables a cualquiera asignatura.
Este atlas es el fruto de casi quince años de trabajo. Un grupo de más de cincuenta investigadores recorrieron la provincia para obtener la información cuantitativa necesaria para confeccionar una serie de mapas que muestran con detalle la distribución de las diferentes aves nidificantes. Los textos, redactados por otros tantos expertos, trazan un retrato del estado de sus poblaciones y proporcionan consejos prácticos para localizar las diferentes especies en el campo. La obra presenta un importante aparato gráfico con imágenes de más de treinta fotógrafos y los dibujos de Lluís Sogorb, que ilustran una volumen que facilitará al amante de la naturaleza en general el disfrute de la observación de las casi 180 especies de aves que podemos encontrar nidificando en la provincia. El resultado es este libro que publica la Universidad de Alicante en coedición con el grupo local de Alicante de SEO-BirdLife.
This book examines the implementation of inquiry-based approaches in science teaching and learning. It explores the ways that those approaches could be promoted across various contexts in Europe through initial teacher preparation, induction programmes and professional development activities. It illustrates connections between scientific knowledge deriving from the science education research community, teaching practices deriving from the science teachers’ community, and educational innovation. Inquiry-Based Science Teaching and Learning (IBST/L) has been promoted as a policy response to pressing educational challenges, including disengagement from science learning and the need for citi...

Disasters such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, heat waves, nuclear accidents, and large-scale pollution incidents take lives and incur major health problems. The majority of large-scale disasters affect the most vulnerable populations, which often comprise extreme ages, remote living areas, and endemic poverty, as well as people with low literacy. Health emergency and disaster risk management (Health-EDRM) refers to the systematic analysis and management of health risks surrounding emergencies and disasters, and plays an important role in reducing the hazards and vulnerability along with extending preparedness, responses, and recovery measures. This concept encompasses risk analyses and interventions, such as accessible early warning systems, the timely deployment of relief workers, and the provision of suitable drugs and medical equipment to decrease the impact of disasters on people before, during, and after an event (or events). Currently, there is a major gap in the scientific literature regarding Health-EDRM to facilitate major global policies and initiatives for disaster risk reduction worldwide.
Less than a decade after the advent of democracy in South Africa, tabloid newspapers have taken the country by storm. One of these papers -- the Daily Sun -- is now the largest in the country, but it has generated controversy for its perceived lack of respect for privacy, brazen sexual content, and unrestrained truth-stretching. Herman Wasserman examines the success of tabloid journalism in South Africa at a time when global print media are in decline. He considers the social significance of the tabloids and how they play a role in integrating readers and their daily struggles with the political and social sphere of the new democracy. Wasserman shows how these papers have found an important niche in popular and civic culture largely ignored by the mainstream media and formal political channels.
One of Mexico's leading contemporary artists, Lourdes Grobet is a photographer who, for the past 20 years, has set her camera lens to look at Mexican popular culture, from female wrestling to northern emigration, from neo-Mayan architecture to Cuban immigration. Beyond photography, she has also tackled architecture, installation art and graphic design, collaborating with numerous institutions in Mexico and abroad to realize her projects. Throughout her long career, she has sometimes been associated with the Fluxus movement, and has had a great influence on the younger generations of Mexican artists, including Gabriel Orozco and Ruben Ortiz. Some of the institutions with which she has worked include the Museo de Arte Moderno of Mexico City, Museo Carrillo Gil, Museo Nacional de Arte, Museo de Bellas Artes, Museo Esteudio Diego Rivera, Fondo de Cultura Economica editorial, and Secretaria de Educacion Publica, among others. Grobet's work has been exhibited both individually and in group shows in the United States, England, France, Holland, Sweden, Venezuela, Brazil and Mexico.
