La educación, en todos sus ámbitos y en todos los sistemas educ ativos, está abocada a cambios obligatorios, necesarios, exógenos y end ógenos. Está sometida a un vaivén incesante de transformaciones: cambia la tecnología, cambian los actores, cambian las demandas, cambian las circunstancias... Pero precisamente es la innovación la que puede introducir sentido, racionalidad y coherencia a estos cambios. Son los cambios innovadores los que aportan auténticas novedades y los que resultan positivos. Aprender a innovar y hacerlo de un modo sistemático se ha convertido en una asignatura obligatoria de todos los actores que participan en la educación. Sin innovación no habrá educación eficaz, ni contextos educativos estables. En consecuencia, la innovación debería estar presente en la práctica diaria de los educadores y de los gestores del sistema educativo. Debería formar parte de su cultura propia. Además, este manual aborda lo tecnológico desde unaparticular visión de la educomunicación: aprender «con», «en» y «desde» los medios y las tecnologías. Siempre, desde un uso y una «mirada» críticas. Por ello, las herramientas ceden protagonismo a las personas. El docente se consolida como un actor decisivo del proceso educativo. A él le corresponderá justamente el complejo y a la vez fascinante hito de innovar con la ayuda (nunca la amenaza) de los instrumentos. En resumen: construir los «caminos».

The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].
