Hábitos deportivos y estilo de vida de los escolares almerienses
Author: Antonio Jesús Casimiro Andújar
Publisher: Universidad Almería
ISBN: 9788482405858
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : es
Pages : 218
Book Description
La salud es, probablemente, una de las temáticas de mayor sensibilización social en el momento actual. La preocupación por la misma se debe al aumento incesante de enfermedades hipocinéticas, derivadas de un estilo de vida donde predomina el sedentarismo, el estrés, la alimentación inadecuada, el consumo de tabaco, alcohol, medicamentos y otras drogas, etc. Todas estas circunstancias pueden ser modificables o prevenidas con una correcta educación para la salud, fundamentalmente desde la infancia y adolescencia, por ser éstas las edades más significativas en cuanto a la adquisición de hábitos de vida relacionados con la salud. No hay lugar a la duda en cuanto a los numerosos efectos positivos del ejercicio físico moderado y controlado para la mejora de la calidad de vida, verdadera preocupación social y sanitaria. Además, debido al evento deportivo que se nos aproxima en nuestro contexto (Juegos Mediterráneos Almería 2005), es sumamente importante conocer los hábitos deportivos y el estilo de vida de toda la juventud de nuestra ciudad, con vistas a desarrollar campañas de formación, educación y concienciación ciudadana con respecto a la promoción del deporte para todos y a la utilización de la actividad físicodeportiva como una fuente de diversión y catarsis en el tiempo libre de los jóvenes almerienses. Por todo ello, creemos de máxima importancia el conocimiento de los resultados de esta investigación por parte de las instituciones y de la sociedad almeriense.

World Anthropologies
Author: Gustavo Lins Ribeiro
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000184498
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

The Cosmic Race / La Raza Cosmica
Author: José Vasconcelos
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 9780801856556
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
In this influential 1925 essay, presented here in Spanish and English, José Vasconcelos predicted the coming of a new age, the Aesthetic Era, in which joy, love, fantasy, and creativity would prevail over the rationalism he saw as dominating the present age. In this new age, marriages would no longer be dictated by necessity or convenience, but by love and beauty; ethnic obstacles, already in the process of being broken down, especially in Latin America, would disappear altogether, giving birth to a fully mixed race, a "cosmic race," in which all the better qualities of each race would persist by the natural selection of love.

Pages : 185
Book Description
This ground-breaking book is the first to describe in detail how teachers, supported by university educators and education advisers, might plan and implement innovative ideas based on sound theoretical foundations.

This book will be required reading for both scholars and teachers interested in applying academic theory in the classroom, and in the teaching of intercultural competence.

From Principles to Practice in Education for Intercultural Citizenship
Author: Michael Byram
Publisher: Multilingual Matters
ISBN: 1783096578
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
The contributors to this volume have collaborated to present their work on introducing competences in intercultural communication and citizenship into foreign language education. The book examines how learners and teachers think about citizenship and interculturality, and shows how teachers and researchers from primary to university education can work together across continents to develop new curricula and pedagogy. This involves the creation of a new theory of intercultural citizenship and a procedure for implementation. The book is written by teacher researchers who aim to help other teachers, and concludes with reflections on the lessons they have learnt which will help others to implement these ideas in their own practice. The book is essential reading for foreign language educators and researchers, students in pre-service teacher training and teachers in in-service training.
