Desde la Revolución Industrial el mundo del trabajo se ha ido haciendo más complejo, una economía cada vez más globalizada y la rápida evolución tecnológica han propiciado cambios en los modelos productivos, y en las habilidades y las competencias que se requieren para acceder y mantenerse en el mercado laboral. La flexibilización del despido, la desregulación y fragmentación del mercado de trabajo se han ido introduciendo de forma gradual y se han radicalizado a partir de momentos concretos como la crisis de 2008. Las consecuencias de estos cambios se han traducido en una menor protección social para los trabajadores, temporalidad laboral y precariedad, aumento del desempleo, de la exclusión social, y en la reducción de herramientas legales y sindicales disponibles que amparen al trabajador. Todo ello constituye un retroceso que trunca la perspectiva de mejora continua que había funcionado durante la gran parte del siglo XX y que ahora configuran un futuro más incierto. Todo ello afecta económica, personal y emocionalmente al trabajador y a la sociedad en su conjunto. Como profesionales dedicados al campo educativo y social, hemos creído importante abordar algunos aspectos que permitan comprender la actual situación del empleo, ya que es el elemento más vertebrador de las vidas de las personas en la sociedad actual.

Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach

It examines the form and function of one of humankind’s most important social institutions, following the cutting edge of pedagogic innovation from mainland Europe through the British Isles to the USA. In the process, the book throws important light upon the origins and evolution of the school based notions of class, curriculum, classroom, recitation and class teaching.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

First published in 1982, this influential and classic text poses two questions: what is it that a child learns when he or she learns to write? What can we learn about children, society and ourselves, by looking at this process? The book is based on a close analysis of a series of written texts by primary school children and is written for student teachers with little or no knowledge of linguistics. In this new edition, Gunther Kress has made extensive revisions in the light of recent developments in linguistics and in education. The theoretical focus is now a social semiotic one, which allows a fundamental rethinking of issues such as 'preliteracy' and broad social and cultural questions around the making of texts.
