Versión en castellano del libro "Biology Made Real". Traducido por IA y editado por el autor. Introducción Siempre me ha motivado entender qué es la biología para nosotros como humanos. Qué significa entender la biología y cómo puedo hacer que tenga sentido para mis alumnos. He leído todo lo que he podido y he reflexionado, he discutido y escuchado, he enseñado y observado. Este libro trata de compartir lo que he aprendido con mis clases de biología de secundaria. «No sólo es probable que este libro cambie tu forma de enseñar biología, sino también tu percepción de ti mismo dentro del mundo vivo.» —Dr. Alex Sinclair, Instituto de Educación, Universidad de St Mary, Twickenham. Lo que encontrarás: —Una visión de una educación de biología integrada y significativa. —Un marco de enseñanza que se centra en la construcción de significado y reduce el tiempo de planificación. —Formas de crear una narrativa que unifica temas dispares. —Una taxonomía de la comprensión que permite la resolución de problemas con una carga de trabajo mínima. —Ejemplos probados en el aula. Capítulo 1: La biología significativa se refiere principalmente a los organismos: Este capítulo sienta las bases de todo el libro. Reúne muchos hilos para definir lo que considero más significativo para los estudiantes de biología de secundaria. Y, por tanto, lo que podemos hacer al respecto a la hora de diseñar nuestras clases y planes de estudio y de pensar en cómo progresan los estudiantes en su formación en biología. La planificación de la construcción de significados ha aumentado enormemente el interés y la motivación por aprender en mi clase. Capítulos 2 y 3: La construcción de significado mediante la teoría de la variación: A continuación presento una poderosa teoría pedagógica, relativamente desconocida y a menudo mal entendida. La teoría de la variación. En estos capítulos me propongo demostrar lo útil que es—y lo fácil que resulta utilizarla—en el aula de biología de secundaria, con muchos ejemplos. Capítulo 4: Cómo integrar organismos, ecología y evolución: Ahora reúno los capítulos anteriores para presentar un nuevo marco de enseñanza para la construcción de significado que reduce el tiempo de planificación y se centra en la biología. Capítulo 5: Conceptos del organismo que unen un curso de biología: Aquí discuto dos conceptos que creo que pueden unificar todos los temas del plan de estudios. 1. Ver la biología a través de los sistemas termodinámicos y 2. Ver la biología a través de la evolución ecológica mediante el concepto de estrategias vitales. Expongo las razones y hablo de cómo he presentado estas ideas a los alumnos. Capítulo 6: Enseñar el pensamiento sistémico para ayudar a los alumnos a ver la interconexión: Muestro cómo los diagramas de existencias de flujo son muy útiles para el aula de biología y doy ejemplos. A continuación, presento una nueva taxonomía para entender los sistemas biológicos que permite la resolución de problemas en biología. Capítulo 7: Establecer una cultura de pensamiento: Este capítulo se centra en los cómos y los porqués de la integración de la taxonomía en los planes de estudio de biología. Doy ejemplos de cómo la utilizo y ejemplos de las respuestas de mis alumnos de cursos de secundaria. Capítulo 8: Navegar por el aula y la complejidad biológica: Este capítulo concluye el libro considerando la complejidad de nuestra asignatura y del aula.

This open access book presents a comparative study on how large-scale professional development programs for teachers are designed and implemented. Around the world, governments and educators are recognizing the need to educate students in a broad range of higher order cognitive skills and socio-emotional competencies, and providing effective opportunities for teachers to develop the expertise needed to teach these skills is a crucial aspect of effective implementation of curricula which include those goals. This study examines how large-scale efforts to empower teachers for deeper instruction have been designed, how they have been implemented, and their outcomes. To do so, it investigates six programs from England, Colombia, Mexico, India, and the United States. Though all six are intended to broaden and deepen students’ curricular aspirations, each takes this expansion of curricular goals in a different direction. The ambitious education reforms studied here explicitly focus on building teachers’ capacity to teach on a broader set of goals. Through a discerning analysis of program documents, evaluations, and interviews with senior leaders and participants in the programs, the book identifies the various theories of action used in these programs, examines how they were implemented, and discusses what they achieved. As such, it offers an indispensable resource for education leaders interested in designing and implementing professional development programs for teachers that are aligned with ambitious instructional goals.

Pressures for reform in teacher education have begun to take on the same sense of urgency as school reform. Those faculties of education who have been strong advocates for change in the schools now find themselves the subject of similar pressures from governmental policy makers. Attempts at change have taken place in many different countries and jurisdictions around the world.; This book details, through a series of international vignettes, how teachers are responding to the changing times and social contexts in which they do their work. The authors hold the view that changes are inevitable in teacher education but what is not clear is who will control the changes and whether the end result will actually improve the preparation of teachers. The theme of the book is that the reform of teacher education should be informed by intelligent debate and that any attempt to restructure teacher preparation should result from a careful reconceptualisation of it purposes and processes.

Every year, the World Bank’s World Development Report (WDR) features a topic of central importance to global development. The 2018 WDR—LEARNING to Realize Education’s Promise—is the first ever devoted entirely to education. And the time is right: education has long been critical to human welfare, but it is even more so in a time of rapid economic and social change. The best way to equip children and youth for the future is to make their learning the center of all efforts to promote education. The 2018 WDR explores four main themes: First, education’s promise: education is a powerful instrument for eradicating poverty and promoting shared prosperity, but fulfilling its potential requires better policies—both within and outside the education system. Second, the need to shine a light on learning: despite gains in access to education, recent learning assessments reveal that many young people around the world, especially those who are poor or marginalized, are leaving school unequipped with even the foundational skills they need for life. At the same time, internationally comparable learning assessments show that skills in many middle-income countries lag far behind what those countries aspire to. And too often these shortcomings are hidden—so as a first step to tackling this learning crisis, it is essential to shine a light on it by assessing student learning better. Third, how to make schools work for all learners: research on areas such as brain science, pedagogical innovations, and school management has identified interventions that promote learning by ensuring that learners are prepared, teachers are both skilled and motivated, and other inputs support the teacher-learner relationship. Fourth, how to make systems work for learning: achieving learning throughout an education system requires more than just scaling up effective interventions. Countries must also overcome technical and political barriers by deploying salient metrics for mobilizing actors and tracking progress, building coalitions for learning, and taking an adaptive approach to reform.
