La literatura sobre eficacia y mejora de la escuela ha destacado el papel crítico que ejerce la dirección en organizar buenas prácticas pedagógicas e incrementar los resultados del aprendizaje. Un liderazgo para el aprendizaje busca garantizar el éxito educativo de todos los alumnos, es decir, una buena educación. En esta línea, el presente estudio de caso describe la experiencia de Estudiantes Adultos trabajadores no profesionales en carreras de Ingeniería, en una Universidad de formación Técnica- Profesional. El estudio busca contribuir a la investigación sobre Liderazgo educativo y su papel en la Educación de Adultos en Chile, enmarcada en un contexto en el que los estudiantes presentan alta variabilidad en rango etario, experticia y formación no profesional.La investigación involucra la aplicación de un cuestionario, Focus Group, y entrevistas de carácter cualitativo que buscan describir la experiencia de estudiantes adultos, sus razones para asistir a estudios de pregrado en la Universidad estudiada, y los beneficios que esperan obtener de los mismos. A través de metodologías basadas en el análisis de datos y procesos sistemáticos de codificación y categorización, se desarrollaron tres conceptos claves basados en la experiencia descrita por los estudiantes. El primer concepto de "Percepción Inicial" describe influencias sociales, personales, situacionales y biográficas, y como ellas interactúan e impactan en la decisión de ingresar a la educación superior. El segundo de"percepción emergente", describe los desafíos enfrentados por los estudiantes durante el proceso de cambio. El tercer concepto, "percepción modificada", describe como muchos delos participantes expresaron una nueva visión de sí mismos como resultado de su participación, caracterizada por un gran aumento de la confianza en sus capacidades, en términos de sentirse "capaces de hablar" y "tener cosas que decir". Involucra una mayor conciencia y compromiso, una sensación de tener derecho a participar y tener algo con lo que contribuir al país. Los resultados establecen que en alguna medida la Universidad es un sitio de aprendizaje significativo para los estudiantes adultos. Referido no sólo a aspectosacadémicos, sino que extendida a otros aspectos de sus vidas, tanto personal como social.

The International Handbook of Educational Change is a state of the art collection of the most important ideas and evidence of educational change. The book brings together some of the most influential thinkers and writers on educational change. It deals with issues like educational innovation, reform, restructuring, culture-building, inspection, school-review, and change management. It asks why some people resist change and what their resistance means. It looks at how men and women, older teachers and younger teachers, experience change differently. It looks at the positive aspects of change but does not hesitate to raise uncomfortable questions about many aspects of educational change either. It looks critically and controversially at the social, economic, cultural and political forces that are driving educational change. School leaders, system administration, teacher leaders, consultants, facilitators, educational researchers, staff developers and change agents of all kinds will find this book an indispensable resource for guiding them to both classic and cutting-edge understandings of educational change, no other work provides as comprehensive coverage of the field of educational change.

Benefiting from the support and involvement of two major international research networks, this collection features the latest research findings in TVET. Members of INAP, the International Network on Innovative Apprenticeship, and VETNET, the Vocational Education and Training Network, have contributed key research findings to this detailed survey of the field. Featuring the inclusion of the internationally recognized memorandum released in April 2012 by the INAP Architecture Apprenticeship Commission, the volume covers a wealth of issues relating to technical and vocational education and training, including exemplar architectures such as successful school-to-work transitions, competence assessment and development models, and governance, including the role of stakeholders. The book provides many opportunities to explore in depth the scholarly debate on TVET, as well as to learn from positive international experiences. It aims to inform the practice of TVET professionals as much as the decision making of administrators.

Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms. These groups exist so that people don't have to learn these things on their own, but ironically, their founders and instructors are often teaching themselves how to teach. There's a better way. This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.
