Book Description
El consenso amplio que se da a nivel internacional sobre la importancia de la dirección en el rendimiento de los alumnos y en la mejora escolar es, actualmente, algo incontestable y avalado por diferentes estudios. No obstante, el debate sobre el modelo de dirección deseable en contextos educativos determinados y sus relaciones con el liderazgo que le debe acompañar son aún temas pendientes de decisiones políticas y profesionales sin resolver. El presente texto organiza y presenta los avances que sobre el tema se han ido desarrollando hasta llegar a modelos de dirección distribuida con líderes transformadores, centrados en los procesos de aprendizaje, y capaces de promover centros educativos más eficientes, inclusivos, seguros, saludades, sostenibles, y personal y socialmente útiles. A la reflexión y análisis sobre la naturaleza y sentido de la función directiva y del liderazgo que le debe acompañar, se añaden varios capítulos que tratan del desarrollo profesional de estos responsables, revisando aspectos de la formación inicial y permanente, de las transiciones que les afectan y de su trabajo en red. También se consideran aspectos diferenciales como puedan ser los específicos de la práctica directiva en entornos vulnerables, en centros de formación profesional y en contextos rurales. La obra, dirigida especialmente a directivos, estudiosos e investigadores, asesores, profesorado y responsables de los sistemas educativos, busca así difundir el conocimiento existente, proporcionando los marcos teóricos y prácticos que pueden apoyar su intervención en los centros educativos. Pero, más allá de la formalización y desarrollo realizados, lo interesante de esta aportación radica en los dos mensajes que transmite. A nivel implícito, la reivindicación sobre la necesidad de mantener e impulsar modelos de estudio sobre los directivos líderes que superen el mero análisis estructural y avancen en la descripción y conocimiento de las complejas dinámicas humanas sobre las que actúan. A nivel explícito, nos ayuda a conocer fortalezas y debilidades de las propuestas que, relacionadas con la función directiva y el liderazgo, existen, aportando nuevas visiones y formas de entender y analizar su actividad.

Practically, there is no aspect of the educational system that has not been modified during this period, including both the administration and government of education and the structure and content of educational levels, the education financing and the training and work conditions of teachers... despite the delay in the starting point the achievements of the Spanish educational system in the last years are undeniable'. The autonomy of schools receives much attention not the least because of the changes which affect school governance, the participation of parents and the role of the school principal. The author concludes that, despite democratisation, there remains the need to further this process in relation to the internal functioning of schools and especially in relation to the actual participation of parents and pupils.

Instilling Diversity and Social Inclusion Practices in Teacher Education and Curriculum Development
Author: Alegre de la Rosa, Olga María
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1668448130
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
There has recently been a societal push to better achieve equity for all, with many bringing to light the bias, racism, and discrimination that many factions face on a daily basis. Naturally, integrating diversity and social inclusion thoughts into the classroom is one of the best ways to start changing the mindset of society and promoting more inclusive practices in the next generations. Therefore, diversity and social inclusion have become common approaches in the planning and management of primary, secondary, and higher education schools in many international contexts. However, there are certainly challenges that must be overcome in developing these new practices and their implementation within teacher curriculum. Instilling Diversity and Social Inclusion Practices in Teacher Education and Curriculum Development provides an analysis of educational inclusion practices and identifies university students voices on diversity and social inclusion. It further assesses teacher performance in an international online training context and promotes a model of curriculum development on diversity and social inclusion. Covering topics such as culturally competent teachers, student academic achievement, and attitudes towards diversity, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for teacher educators, pre-service teachers, administrators and educators of both K-12 and higher education, social workers, researchers, and academicians.
