Pages : 254
Book Description
La inclusion de la Educacion Fisica como area comun para los alumnos en las etapas de la Educacion Primaria, Secundaria y el Bachillerato, hace necesaria, por una parte, la puesta al dia o reciclaje de aquellos profesionales dedicados al ambito educativo. Y por otra, la necesidad decrear una formacion inicial especializada para los maestros que tendran la responsabilidad de impartir el area en las escuelas de primaria. La presente obra pretende ser una aportacion en cuanto a formacion basica para la Reforma Educativa. Dirigida tanto a maestros especializados, profesores, licenciados y estudiantes de Educacion Fisica que, implicados en la responsabilidad de afrontar una nueva etapa educativa tanto del propio sistema en su conjunto como especifica del area, deseen tener al alcance una herramienta util en la que se recogen los principales postulados, estructura, finalidades, etc., de la nueva propuesta curricular. El contenido de la obra se estructura alrededor de siete grandes capitulos. A partir de los conceptos basicos sobre programacion y de su incidencia y de la estructura en el sistema educativo, siguiendo por la especificacion del modelo curricular adoptado por la LOGSE, se llega al area de Educacion Fisica para realizar un exhaustivo analisis de su planteamiento en el nuevo sistema educativo. Se finaliza con el estudio y la forma de articular los elementos que confluyen en el diseno de las unidades didacticas. Esta obra, ademas de intentar proporcionar una formacion amplia y general, pretende establecer las bases teoricas y dotar a los profesionales de los conocimientos y recursos adecuados para poder articular los diferentes factores del proceso de ensenanza-aprendizaje.

Category : Education
Languages : es
Pages : 216
Book Description
La obra La Educación Física en Secundaria basada en competencias. Proyecto curricular y programación resuelve la programación docente y la programación de aula de toda la Secundaria en clave de competencias básicas. La propuesta completa está formada por cinco volúmenes y responde a la programación de cada uno de los cursos integrando las competencias básicas (volúmenes 1 a 4) y el volumen 0 que aborda el proyecto curricular y la programación según la normativa que regula la Educación Secundaria. Este volumen 1, La Educación Física en Secundaria basada en competencias. Programación de 1er curso, aborda la programación completa y desarrollada de Educación Física de primer curso de Secundaria. Presenta una propuesta de unidades didácticas programadas con explicitación de los elementos que deben estar presentes en la propuesta de programación: las finalidades, objetivos, contenidos, contribución de la Educación Física a las competencias básicas, contenidos de otras materias, contenidos transversales a los que da respuesta, indicadores de logros, relación con los criterios de evaluación, etc. Cada unidad didáctica viene acompañada de las sesiones que se consideran más convenientes para su aprendizaje. Esta propuesta debe ser recibida como un ejemplo que ya ha sido experimentado y debatido. Es un material muy útil tanto para el profesorado de Educación Física en Secundaria en activo, como para el futuro candidato a profesor ya que explica paso a paso, cuáles son las decisiones que se deben ir adoptando y los responsables de las mismas, para, partiendo del currículo oficial, llegar a la programación de aula.

Engaging People in Sustainability
Author: Daniella Tilbury
Publisher: IUCN
ISBN: 9782831708232
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].

Geoscience Education
Author: Clara Vasconcelos
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319433199
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
This book presents research in Geoscience Education focusing on indoor and outdoor environments in which teaching geoscience gains particular relevance, significance and contextualization. The research areas that are presented throughout the thirteen chapters cover a wide variety of subjects ranging from educational resources and fieldwork to science models. Chapters discuss specific geoscience topics such as earthquakes, rocks, fossils and minerals. Other chapters present a more interdisciplinary approach addressing topics that aren’t usually examined, such as geomedicine and geoethics, with a specific focus on sustainable development and their alignment with the school curricula. Throughout the book readers can find research-based arguments illustrated with practical examples, which will help them to innovate in their curriculum development area, classroom practices and pre and in-service teachers’ education. The book challenges readers to improve Geoscience Education by changing the ways of teaching, by enabling students to exploit their natural curiosity, and by spurring a learning process that should not be confined to the classroom but rather maintained throughout life.

E-Learning in the 21st Century
Author: D. Randy Garrison
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134574533
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
There is currently a technological revolution taking place in higher education. The growth of e-learning is being described as explosive, unprecedented, and above all, disruptive. This timely and comprehensive book provides a coherent framework for understanding e-learning in higher education. The authors draw on their extensive research in the area to explore the technological, pedagogical and organisational implications of e-learning, and more importantly, they provide practical models for educators to use to realise the full potential of e-learning. A unique feature of the book is that the authors focus less on the ever-evolving technologies and more on the search for an understanding of these technologies from an educational perspective. This book will be invaluable for researchers, practitioners and senior administrators looking for guidance on how to successfully adopt e-learning in their institutions. It will also appeal to anyone with an interest in the impact of e-learning on higher education and society.

How to Measure Survey Reliability and Validity
Author: Mark S. Litwin
Publisher: SAGE Publications
ISBN: 1506319815
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles Aimed at helping readers improve the accuracy of their survey, Litwin′s book guides in assessing and interpreting the quality of their survey data by thoroughly examining the survey instrument used. The book also explains how to code and pilot test new and established surveys. In addition, it covers such issues as how to measure reliability (e.g., test-retest, alternate-form, internal consistency, inter-observer, and intra-observer reliability), how to measure validity (including content, criterion, and construct validity), how to address cross-cultural issues in survey research, and how to scale and score a survey. "I found this work to be of very high quality with respect to both content and writing. It is commendable in terms of communicating and facilitating understanding of sometimes difficult concepts. It will make an excellent text for my introductory course on survey research and, I imagine, for many similar or related courses in the social sciences or education. All the pedagogical features, including the exercises, are excellent, and the level of writing throughout not only is appropriate for an introductory volume, but also engaging and lively." --Daniel U.
