Book Description
Para muchos autores, entre los que destacamos al catedrático Jesús Salinas, la innovación docente universitaria consiste en la incorporación de una idea, práctica o artefacto novedoso dentro de un conjunto. La creencia de que la innovación pueda suponer un cambio global arranca de la convicción personal de quien la lleva a cabo. Desde esta perspectiva, el cambio se genera en una esfera determinada y, posteriormente, pasaría a afectar al resto del sistema. Se ha señalado, pues, que es un cambio global, no restringido. Se trataría de un cambio intencional, no de simples novedades ni de propuestas visionarias. Supone una forma creativa de selección, organización y utilización de los recursos humanos y materiales; forma esta que da como resultado el logro de objetivos previamente marcados. Por ello, es necesario anclar las propuestas de innovación en terreno propicio y fértil a fin de que se diseminen y florezcan. Precisamente, esta obra científica obedece a estos principios: la necesidad de brindar al lector la posibilidad de reflexionar sobre lo dicho anteriormente a través de la visión de distintos autores y la de propiciar, así, un diálogo interactivo y pausado con aquel sobre lo que significa la innovación docente universitaria y cómo llevarla a la práctica en el ámbito universitario de la mejor manera posible. La mayoría de los autores de este libro han participado en los diversos seminarios que ha organizado la Universidad Pablo de Olavide, de Sevilla, al largo de los años a través de la Dirección General de Formación de Innovación Docente. Ha sido el deseo de esta institución que sus valiosas aportaciones queden "negro sobre blanco" para que germinen y queden como ejemplos de buenas prácticas docentes en el presente y el futuro, de modo intencional, y para que faciliten y estimulen un cambio global en el quehacer del profesorado docente universitario.

Persistence and Emergencies of Inequalities in Latin America
Author: Pablo Vommaro
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030904954
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
This book adopts a multidimensional approach to analyze both the historical and emerging factors that contribute to make Latin America and the Caribbean the most unequal region in the world. Social inequality is a historical characteristic of the region, but at the beginning of the 21st century, a handful of progressive governments seemed to be adopting policies that could reduce this historical trend. Many of these efforts, however, were blocked or reversed by the COVID-19 pandemic, which both exposed the persistence of historical trends and contributed to the emergency of new forms of inequality in the region. The different chapters in this contributed volume adopt a multidimensional, intersectional, perspective to analyze both the persistence and the emergency of social devices of production and reproduction of inequalities in the diverse Latin American and Caribbean temporal spatialities. The issues analyzed in the different chapters revolve around four main axes: a) persistence of generational and intergenerational inequalities; b) structural gender inequality; c) intertwined social inequalities: race, class and social structure and; c) historical and economic dimension of inequality. Persistence and Emergencies of Inequalities in Latin America: A Multidimensional Approach will be of interest to researchers interested in the study of social inequality and social justice in different fields of the human and social sciences, such as sociology, political science, history, economics, anthropology and education. It will also be a valuable tool for policy makers and social activists engaged in the discussion, advocacy and implementation of public policies aimed at reducing social inequalities.

Handbook of Best Practices in Sustainable Development at University Level
Author: Walter Leal Filho
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031047648
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 497
Book Description
This book gives a special emphasis to state-of-the-art descriptions of approaches, methods, initiatives, and projects from universities, stakeholders, organizations, and civil society across the world, regarding cross-cutting issues in sustainable development. There is a perceived need for mobilizing the various stakeholders when attempting to promote sustainability in higher education and to promote best practices, which may inspire further initiatives. But despite this need, there are a few publications handling this matter in a coherent way. In order to meet the pressing need for publications which may document and disseminate examples of best practice on sustainable development at university level, the “Handbook of Best Practices in Sustainable Development at University Level” is being published. This book is produced by the European School of Sustainability Science and Research (ESSSR), through the Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP) and contains inputs from authors across all geographical regions. The book also discusses examples of initiatives coordinated by universities but involving civil society, the private sector, and public sector (including local, national, and intergovernmental bodies). In particular, it describes practical experiences, partnerships, networks, and training schemes for building capacity aimed at fostering the cause of sustainable development at institutions of higher education. Thanks to its design and the contributions by experts from various areas, it provides a welcome contribution to the literature on sustainable development, and it may inspire further works in this field.

Social, Political, and Religious Movements in the Modern Americas
Author: Pablo A. Baisotti
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000540022
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
This volume explores several notable themes related to social, political, and religious movements in Latin America and offers insightful historical perspectives to understand national, regional, and global issues from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day. This volume’s collected chapters focus on the Latin American society and are divided into three sections. The first section, Social, presents some cultural, demographic, and urban changes that have occurred with increasing frequency in Latin America from the early twentieth century onward. The second section, Political, shows migratory, political, and identity movements that in recent decades have re-emerged with force. Finally, the third section, Religious, analyzes various Latin American religious visions with their particular characteristics. From the religious hegemony of Catholicism, a change in the religious panorama in the last decades can be seen intermingled with politics, history, and society.

The Micro-Politics of the School
Author: Stephen J. Ball
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136670599
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Stephen Ball’s micro-political theory of school organization is a radical departure from traditional theories. He rejects a prescriptive ‘top down’ approach and directly addresses the interest and concerns of teachers and current problems facing schools. In doing so he raises question about the adequacy and appropriateness of the existing forms of organizational control in schools. Through case studies and interviews with teachers, the book captures the flavour of real conflicts in schools – particularly in times of falling rolls, change of leadership or amalgamations – when teachers’ autonomy seems to be at stake.

E-Learning in the 21st Century
Author: D. Randy Garrison
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134574533
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
There is currently a technological revolution taking place in higher education. The growth of e-learning is being described as explosive, unprecedented, and above all, disruptive. This timely and comprehensive book provides a coherent framework for understanding e-learning in higher education. The authors draw on their extensive research in the area to explore the technological, pedagogical and organisational implications of e-learning, and more importantly, they provide practical models for educators to use to realise the full potential of e-learning. A unique feature of the book is that the authors focus less on the ever-evolving technologies and more on the search for an understanding of these technologies from an educational perspective. This book will be invaluable for researchers, practitioners and senior administrators looking for guidance on how to successfully adopt e-learning in their institutions. It will also appeal to anyone with an interest in the impact of e-learning on higher education and society.

Online Distance Education
Author: Olaf Zawacki-Richter
Publisher: Athabasca University Press
ISBN: 1927356628
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 520
Book Description
Online Distance Education: Towards a Research Agenda offers a systematic overview of the major issues, trends, and areas of priority in online distance education research. In each chapter, an international expert or team of experts provides an overview of one timely issue in online distance education, summarizing major research on the topic, discussing theoretical insights that guide the research, posing questions and directions for future research, and discussing the implications for distance education practice as a whole. Intended as a primary reference and guide for distance educators, researchers, and policymakers, Online Distance Education addresses aspects of distance education practice that have often been marginalized, including issues of cost and economics, concerns surrounding social justice, cultural bias, the need for faculty professional development, and the management and growth of learner communities. At once soundly empirical and thoughtfully reflective, yet also forward-looking and open to new approaches to online and distance teaching, this text is a solid resource for researchers in a rapidly expanding discipline.
