Book Description
El avance en la comprensión e intervención en educación está produciéndose en la actualidad al mismo tiempo que nuevas teorías, valores y metodologías contribuyen a una mejor y más viva reconstrucción de los fenómenos objeto de estudio. La tradición etnográfica y los métodos cualitativos constituyen una decisiva ayuda para un mayor entendimiento crítico de las situaciones y fenómenos educativos y, por consiguiente, para una más adecuada y consciente intervención. Judith GOETZ y Margaret LeCOMPTE pasan revista en esta obra a los distintos modelos, más o menos en litigio, que dirigen hoy la investigación educativa. Una vez analizados minuciosamente sus pros y sus contras, asumen la existencia de una distinción fundamental entre las tradiciones dominantes de carácter experimental-positivista y otras más recientes de tipo hermenéutico-etnográfico y cualitativo. Las autoras preconizan el abandono de las concepciones reduccionistas de cientificidad en la investigación educativa, asumiendo la necesidad de incorporar nuevas perspectivas teóricas y metodológicas que permitan una penetración mayor en la realidad cotidiana de las situaciones escolares y captar las perspectivas subjetivas de quienes intervienen en esa realidad. Este manual ofrece, asimismo, una completa explicación de cómo realizar e interpretar investigaciones etnográficas y de las numerosas técnicas de carácter cualitativo que nos permiten obtener las informaciones que los profesores e investigadores necesitan actualmente.

Simulation for Participatory Education
Author: M. Laura Angelini
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031210115
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
This textbook explores the use of simulation within the context of education and internationalization. Simulation is broken down into its phases and these elements are discussed by experts, most of whom have long tradition in the application of simulation. Simulation is treated with references to the specific needs of practitioners, educators and researchers in initiating and developing simulation in different fields of study, with specific reference to teacher education. This volume focuses on presenting simulation as a means to facilitating students’ openness to complexity and development of intercultural skills through virtual exchange. Thus, it provides educators and researchers with a conceptual and practical resource that tackles the critical role of cognitive and metacognitive complexity in the education of future global professionals through intercultural pedagogy. By tracing the roots of simulation and outlining a framework to support professional learning through experiential-based research, this textbook will prove invaluable for teacher trainers, practitioners and researchers interested in simulation.

Qualitative Voices in Educational Research
Author: Michael Schratz
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000769623
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 219
Book Description
By neglecting the ‘human’ factor in the process of research analysis, much has been lost and researchers are now looking for new ways to broaden the social reality in their research. In this volume, originally published in 1993, the research perspective adopted shows new methods of dealing with the world of education, including ethnographic studies and action research. The ‘voices’ offer a critical insight into both the scientific rationale and the methodological application of their individual approaches. This book provides a rich source of material for students and researchers doing qualitative analysis.

Qualitative Methods in Military Studies
Author: Helena Carreiras
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0415698111
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
This book examines the methodology of qualitative research in military studies. Since the end of the Cold War, the number of studies on military and society has grown substantially in substance, size and impact. However, only a tiny part of this bibliography deals in depth with the research methods used, especially in relation to qualitative methods. The data that form the basis of the researchers' analyses are often presented as if they were immediately available, rather than as a product of interaction between the researcher and those who participated in the research. Comprising essays by international scholars, the volume discusses the methodological questions raised by the use of qualitative research methodology in military settings. On the one hand, it focuses on the specificity of the military as a social context for research: the authors single out and discuss the particular field effects produced by institutional arrangements, norms and practices of the military. On the other, the authors proceed in an empirical manner: all methodological questions are addressed with regard to concrete situations of field research. This book will be of much interest to students of military studies, research methods, sociology, anthropology, war and conflict studies and security studies in general.

The Development of Social Knowledge
Author: José Antonio Castorina
Publisher: IAP
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The result of a deep research work sustained for more than two decades, this book studies the construction of social knowledge from a constructivist perspective inherited from Piagetian thought. It thus advances in a process of revision and discussion, while maintaining crucial aspects of this current for the approach to the construction of the subject and the object of knowledge, in the search for the elaboration of an explanatory theory for the formation of new knowledge. A collaborative proposal between different disciplines of potential interest for the different actors who study and intervene in this field.

The International Handbook of Teacher Ethos
Author: Fritz Oser
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303073644X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 468
Book Description
This volume is the first handbook that brings together cutting-edge international research on teacher ethos from a broad array of disciplines. The main focus will be on research that illustrates current conceptualizations of ethos and its importance for acting effectively and responsibly in and out of the classroom. Research will encompass updated empirical and philosophical work that points to the difference in learning when teaching is practised as a moral activity instead of a merely functional one. Authors are among the world’s foremost researchers whose work crosses over from moral education into psychology, neuroscience, sociology, philosophy, pedagogy, and curriculum, drawing on these various fields of research. Today, more than ever, we understand that teachers, like other professionals, need more than subject-matter expertise for acting responsibly and doing their best in their daily duties. Doing so requires possessing a guiding system of professional ethics, moral positioning, goals, norms, and values – in other words: a professional ethos. While the handbook concentrates on Western domains in the current era, the work will extend to other cultures and times as well. With this comprehensive range of perspectives, the book will be attractive and useful for researchers on teachers and teaching as well as for teacher educators, curriculum designers, educational officials, and, last-but-not-least, anyone who is interested in what makes a good teacher. This volume is also a tribute to Fritz Oser, a leading scholar in research on ethos, who sadly passed-away during the compilation of this handbook.

Education and Poverty
Author: Alfredo Gaete
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527534545
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
What are the effects of recent public policies for reducing educational inequalities? How do privatization and other market-based education measures influence schooling in poverty contexts and teacher training programs? In what ways, and to what extent, can these programs take responsibility for improving low-income students’ learning? How do ethnic and cultural differences relate to socioeconomic differences at school? This collection of essays serves to improve the reader’s understanding of the complex relations between education and poverty. While it does this mainly by delving into problems and challenges of the Chilean educational system, they are also currently of international concern. The chapters, authored by leading scholars in Chile and worldwide, present theoretical reflections on, and reports of, contemporary educational research on such issues as social equality, schooling in low socioeconomic sectors, and teacher education, among others. The book will be particularly helpful for scholars from different disciplines who work in education as well as for teacher educators, schoolteachers, and policy makers. More generally, it will be also of interest to anyone who wants to form justified, well-informed beliefs on the ways in which various educational and socioeconomic institutions and processes could, and do, affect each other.

Diagnóstico pedagógico
Author: Pascual Gómez, Isabel
Publisher: Editorial UOC
ISBN: 8491162534
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
La finalidad de este libro es difundir el interés del diagnóstico pedagógico en la etapa de educación infantil. El diagnóstico es fundamental para conocer los fenómenos educativos con rigor, y constituye un paso previo necesario para intervenir adecuadamente sobre ellos. Los contextos educativos se han transformado como consecuencia de cambios sociales, económicos y tecnológicos, y en este escenario resulta cada vez más necesario su presencia activa y colaborativa en los contextos escolares y extraescolares. Se trata de realizar un diagnóstico no limitado en exclusiva a la detección de problemas organizativos, curriculares o técnicos de la educación, sino a la prevención, la individualización y la mejora de la calidad del proceso educativo. El libro se divide en dos partes. Los cuatro primeros capítulos son de carácter más general y sirven como punto de partida y reflexión sobre la definición y delimitación del diagnóstico pedagógico. Por este motivo, se desarrollará: una breve revisión histórica que permita comprender qué elementos han favorecido su configuración y desarrollo; una delimitación conceptual que clarifique conceptos afines y/o disciplinas afines al diagnóstico; una descripción de los contenidos y funciones; y por último, una presentación de las técnicas y los procedimientos de recogida de información en el proceso. Los siguientes capítulos están dedicados a las especificidades propias del diagnóstico en la etapa de educación infantil, así como a la descripción de las técnicas de observación sistemática que pueden aplicarse tanto en la evaluación como en el diagnóstico en esta etapa.

Fracaso escolar y desventaja sociocultural
Author: Calderón Almendros, Ignacio
Publisher: Editorial UOC
ISBN: 8490649340
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Hemos construido la pedagogía al margen de las personas para las que se dirige. Las políticas educativas se centran ahora en grandes cifras, extraídas de enormes herramientas estadísticas omnipresentes a lo largo y ancho del planeta, que comparan realidades radicalmente diferentes y desiguales sin ningún pudor. Como respuesta a esta realidad y de forma casi residual, se han ido creando en las últimas décadas estudios que buscan «dar voz» a quienes no la tienen.Sin embargo, todas las personas tienen voz, aunque algunas no han sido oídas mínimamente. Por tanto, el primer paso para estudiar sus realidades es reconocer sus voces y el valor de lo que dicen. En el fracaso escolar, por ejemplo, algo tendrán que decir quienes lo sufren?
