DOWNLOAD EBOOKEn un entorno social y cultural en el que la mayor parte de las comunicaciones son mediadas por tecnologías la educación mediática se convierte en un requisito indispensable para el desarrollo de la autonomía personal de los ciudadanos y la plena implementación de una cultura democrática. Por ello, el mundo académico debería conceder una importancia capital a la educación mediática. En el libro se parte de esta premisa y se recogen los resultados y conclusiones de una investigación I+D+i sobre la situación de la educación mediática en la universidad española, tanto en los grados de educación como en los de comunicación. Del análisis de toda la información obtenida se extraen conclusiones sobre fuerzas y flaquezas, carencias y retos de la educación mediática en el marco de la Cultura Digital.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEste libro se autodestruirá en diez años. El mundo que conocemos se transforma vertiginosamente gracias a los avances tecnológicos. El sistema educativo tradicional va a la zaga de los profundos cambios culturales y sociales que vinieron de la mano de las pantallas. Sin embargo, aunque de maneras dispares y a veces invisibles, los algoritmos ya están en la escuela. ¿Qué tanto y cómo hay que cambiar los sistemas educativos en un mundo en que (casi todos) los jóvenes tienen un celular en sus manos? ¿Qué nuevos desafíos y oportunidades nos presentan las tecnologías digitales si queremos garantizar la justicia educativa y encender la llama del aprendizaje en las nuevas generaciones? Y, sobre todo, ¿cuál será el rol de los estados, del sector privado y de los educadores en este futuro que ya llegó? Axel Rivas, referente global en política e innovación educativa, parte de una rigurosa mirada sobre los sistemas educativos de América Latina y ofrece un diagnóstico claro de las posibilidades efectivas que ofrecen las nuevas tecnologías digitales. En este paisaje, el naciente mercado tecnoeducativo es veloz y multiplica su oferta: no ha perdido el tiempo y ya ofrece sistemas de gestión del aprendizaje, tutorías digitales y gamificación con la lógica adictiva de los videojuegos. En este contexto, el Estado no puede estar ausente en la discusión y debe garantizar la justicia educativa. Por ejemplo, a través de una Plataforma Educativa Pública con proyectos y clases para los docentes, y actividades que conviertan los contenidos curriculares en situaciones de indagación. Dirigido a educadores y políticos, este libro propone un sistema educativo que enseñe a pensar críticamente, que produzca en los alumnos la voluntad y el deseo de aprender, y que genere compromiso social y ciudadanía democrática.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe establishment of ecological networks in Europe and greenways in America has required some of the most advanced applications of the principles of landscape ecology to land use planning. This book provides a thorough overview of recent developments in this emerging field, combining theoretical concepts of landscape ecology with the actual practice of landscape planning and management. In addition to biological and physical considerations important to biodiversity protection and restoration, equal weight is given to cultural and aesthetic issues to illustrate how sympathetic, sustainable land use policies can be implemented. Examples are given for large scale areas (Estonia and Florida) as well as regional areas such as Milano, Chicago and the Argentinian Yungas. This invaluable book will provide a wealth of information for all those concerned with biodiversity conservation through networks and greenways and their relevance to the planning process, whether researcher, land manager or policy maker.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe future of learning depends absolutely on the future of teaching. In this latest and most important collaboration, Andy Hargreaves and Michael Fullan show how the quality of teaching is captured in a compelling new idea: the professional capital of every teacher working together in every school. Speaking out against policies that result in a teaching force that is inexperienced, inexpensive, and exhausted in short order, these two world authorities--who know teaching and leadership inside out--set out a groundbreaking new agenda to transform the future of teaching and public education. Ideas-driven, evidence-based, and strategically powerful, Professional Capital combats the tired arguments and stereotypes of teachers and teaching and shows us how to change them by demanding more of the teaching profession and more from the systems that support it. This is a book that no one connected with schools can afford to ignore. This book features: (1) a powerful and practical solution to what ails American schools; (2) Action guidelines for all groups--individual teachers, administrators, schools and districts, state and federal leaders; (3) a next-generation update of core themes from the authors' bestselling book, "What's Worth Fighting for in Your School?" [This book was co-published with the Ontario Principals' Council.].

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this expanded and revised edition of a fresh and original case-study textbook on environmental ethics, Christine Gudorf and James Huchingson continue to explore the line that separates the current state of the environment from what it should be in the future. Boundaries begins with a lucid overview of the field, highlighting the key developments and theories in the environmental movement. Specific cases offer a rich and diverse range of situations from around the globe, from saving the forests of Java and the use of pesticides in developing countries to restoring degraded ecosystems in Nebraska. With an emphasis on the concrete circumstances of particular localities, the studies continue to focus on the dilemmas and struggles of individuals and communities who face daunting decisions with serious consequences. This second edition features extensive updates and revisions, along with four new cases: one on water privatization, one on governmental efforts to mitigate global climate change, and two on the obstacles that teachers of environmental ethics encounter in the classroom. Boundaries also includes an appendix for teachers that describes how to use the cases in the classroom.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis updated edition second edition, with a timely new afterword by author Ken Goodman unravels a riddle that has long troubled parents, teachers and scholars: learning language sometimes seems ridiculously easy and sometimes impossibly hard. Embraced by teachers worldwide, whole language has sparked renewed interest in well written trade books instead of boring and unnatural textbooks that actually diminish interest in reading. A new generation of authors writing for children and young adults has responded enthusiastically to increasing demand for books that are relevant to our time. This 20th anniversary edition responds to renewed interest in whole language among parents, teachers, and administrators looking for more learner friendly alternatives to the hostile test and text book mandates of the federal No Child Left Behind act. Teachers and parents will find many ideas in this book for helping children make sense of print and build a life-long love of reading.
