Miguel Arenas Vargas, creador del método educativo que lleva su nombre, nació en la ciudad de México, Distrito Federal, el 14 de julio de 1940. Ha dedicado su vida a la formación de científicos independientes en pequeñas comunidades esparcidas en la periferia de la república mexicana a partir del reconocimiento que la sociedad mexicana, así como la de muchos países con economías en desarrollo necesitan de científicos para poder acceder a mejores condiciones de vida para sus habitantes. Al tratar de responder la pregunta: ¿Cómo aprende el hombre?, propone una revolución en la educación para la salud humana, la salud animal y el aprovechamiento de los recursos naturales, mediante innovaciones educativas que centran al estudiante en el aprendizaje auto‐dirigido y en la investigación como método de estudio. Este libro es producto de 30 años de trabajo pedagógico por parte de Joel López-Pérez y y17 años de inmersión en la innovación educativa por parte de Susana Juárez-López, ambos comprometidos con la formación de investigadores al lado de Miguel Arenas. El Método Arenas (MA) utiliza las estrategias del PBL (Problem Based Learning) ligado a otras técnicas de aprendizaje grupales, como los grupos operativos de Pichón Riviere, y las Comunidades de Práctica (COPs) ampliamente estudiadas por Jean Lave y Etienne Wenger desde la última década del siglo XX, para hacer de las reuniones de discusión una experiencia óptima que fluye para hacer consciente el inconsciente y generar cambios en la mente de los participantes. El componente educativo fundamental de este revolucionario método es el acto consciente, ya que las cosas adquieren importancia para nosotros cuando somos conscientes de su existencia, que es el pensamiento central en los grupos que han adoptado las formas de preceder propuestas por Miguel Arenas.

This book considers some of the outstanding questions regarding language and communication in the teaching and learning of mathematics – an established theme in mathematics education research, which is growing in prominence. Recent research has demonstrated the wide range of theoretical and methodological resources that can contribute to this area of study, including those drawing on cross-disciplinary perspectives influenced by, among others, sociology, psychology, linguistics, and semiotics. Examining language in its broadest sense to include all modes of communication, including visual and gestural as well as spoken and written modes, it features work presented and discussed in the Language and Communication topic study group (TSG 31) at the 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13). A joint session with participants of the Mathematics Education in a Multilingual and Multicultural Environment topic study group (TSG 32) enhanced discussions, which are incorporated in elaborations included in this book. Discussing cross-cutting topics it appeals to readers from a wide range of disciplines, such as mathematics education and research methods in education, multilingualism, applied linguistics and beyond.

This book explores the interactions of local inhabitants and environmental systems in the Protected Natural Areas of Mexico. Its goal is to help understand how social groups contextualize ecological knowledge, how human activities contribute to modifying the environmental matrix, how cultural and economic aspects influence the use, management and conservation of their ecological environment, and how social phenomena are to be viewed against the backdrop of ecological knowledge. The book reviews the epistemological and historical bases of the socio-ecological relationship, and addresses the evolution of human-natural systems. From a methodological standpoint, it assesses the tools required for the integration of “human” and “natural” dimensions in the management of the environmental matrix. Further, in the case studies section, it reviews valuable recent experiences concerning the retro-interactions of local inhabitants with their environmental matrix. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable asset for researchers and professionals all over the world, especially those working in Latin American countries.

Linguistics, Literature and Cultural Studies are the three main research areas within Philology. Scientific production, such as conferences and journals, has tended towards specialization, and has been traditionally classified according to separate disciplines and languages. However, this volume offers a holistic view of the wide area of Philology, therefore allowing the permeability of the three areas mentioned above. As such, this book shows that the line that separates Linguistics, Literature and Cultural Studies is actually very thin. This volume is composed of a miscellanea of philological studies dealing with various trends in Modern Language research. It looks at three languages in particular: Spanish, English and French, with a special relevance to the first two.

The phrase ‘feminist pedagogy’ couples the contemporary and the traditional, joining current political movements with a concern for the transmission of knowledge more ancient than the Greek word for teaching. Now, two decades after the first Women’s Studies courses appeared on campuses, their place in higher education happily needs little demonstration. Gendered Subjects combines a number of classic statements on feminist pedagogy from the 1970s with recent original essays making significant and original contributions to the field. As the new scholarship on women has changed the content and structure of knowledge in every field, so this collection aims to mirror this impact on feminist pedagogy, with articles ranging from broad theoretical perspectives on the realities of the classroom to international explorations on how race, gender and class, and political orientation inform feminist enquiry.
