Science and Catholicism in Argentina (1750–1960)
Author: Miguel de AsúaPublisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110488779
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
Science and Catholicism in Argentina (1750–1960) is the first comprehensive study on the relationship between science and religion in a Spanish-speaking country with a Catholic majority and a "Latin" pattern of secularisation. The text takes the reader from Jesuit missionary science in colonial times, through the conflict-ridden 19th century, to the Catholic revival of the 1930s in Argentina. The diverse interactions between science and religion revealed in this analysis can be organised in terms of their dynamic of secularisation. The indissoluble identification of science and the secular, which operated at rhetorical and institutional levels among the liberal elite and the socialists in the 19th century, lost part of its force with the emergence of Catholic scientists in the course of the 20th century. In agreement with current views that deny science the role as the driving force of secularisation, this historical study concludes that it was the process of secularisation that shaped the interplay between religion and science, not the other way around.
Una introducción a la enseñanza de la filosofía
Author: Guillermo ObiolsPublisher: Libros del Zorzal
ISBN: 9875991023
Category : Education
Languages : es
Pages : 121
Book Description
En este libro, Guillermo Obiols aborda aspectos cruciales de la enseñanza de la filosofía. En primer lugar, a partir de la revisión de su historia, identifica diversos interrogantes que ella puede suscitar, en los distintos niveles educativos. Ya frente a éstos, trata de hallar respuestas a la problemática de aprender y enseñar filosofía, en algunos filósofos clásicos y contemporáneos. Esta indagación le permite arribar a una propuesta que es confrontada con algunas ideas y teorías pedagógicas contemporáneas. Sobre esa base expone, en la parte conclusiva de la obra, los elementos básicos de un modelo formal general para la enseñanza de la filosofía. Guillermo Obiols (1950-2002). Profesor de Filosofía por la Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP). Ejerció la docencia en los niveles secundario, terciario y universitario, en el grado y el posgrado. Tuvo a su cargo la cátedra de Didáctica Especial en Filosofía en las universidades de La Plata y Buenos Aires, donde también fue investigador y director de múltiples proyectos de su área de interés. Fue miembro fundador y primer presidente de la Asociación Argentina de Profesores de Filosofía, decano de la Facultad de Humanidades de la UNLP y presidente de la Asociación Nacional de Facultades de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades (1999-2001). Publicó doce libros y numerosos artículos en revistas especializadas del país y el exterior. A seis años de su prematura muerte, esta nueva edición de uno de sus libros más significativos –enriquecida con material no incluido en la primera publicación– es un homenaje a quien fue uno de los principales impulsores del estudio y las investigaciones sobre la enseñanza de la filosofía en la Argentina.

Personalisation of Education in Contexts
Author: Monica E. MincuPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9462090289
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
This volume addresses personalisation, a key education policy in England and a key issue identified by the OECD for the schools of the future. The central questions addressed are: Which are the main theoretical perspectives on personalisation? Which are the policy strategies in different contexts? Which ingredients and theories of personalisation as legitimated knowledge from abroad are locally adopted and adapted in different countries? What are the meanings and purposes of personalisation? Why does it come paradoxically to be implemented by teachers through grouping by ability? Which alliances between the public and the private sectors are proposed? Leading scholars in the comparative education field as well as scholars committed to understanding the design and substance of education processes and politics, such as Michael Fullan, Chris Watkins, Michael Peters, Michael Fielding, Giorgio Chiosso, Ruth Deakin Crick, Ferran Ferrer, and Baocun Liu, engage with personalisation from a plurality of theoretical frameworks and in relation to many national contexts. The volume, prefaced by Mark Ginsburg, presents two main perspectives which are simultaneously at work. In the first, personalisation is assessed as a recent and global education policy, in line with the current restructuring reforms of State administration worldwide. In the second perspective, personalisation is assumed to be not only a matter of recent education policy regarding school clients and their choices, but foremost a pedagogical theory, a reassembly of old and new pedagogical approaches under new reform discourses. The volume edited by Monica Mincu offers a remarkable map of the theoretical understandings which inform different educational politics and school practices. Personalisation tends to legitimising forms of autonomy and a flexible educational relationship and thus its connection to standardisation represents a salient issue of this work. Luciano Benadusi, University of Rome Moving from teaching/learning theories to theoretical, critical, historical and religious arguments about schooling and its reforms, the various contributions provide impressive insights into the possibilities and limits of personalization for school innovation. The reader is engaged in a dialogue about the specifics of personalization as a reform focus and the historical, social and comparative complexities in which such efforts are bound. Thomas S. Popkewitz, University of Wisconsin-Madison The volume represents a significant opportunity to engage with the possibilities of personalized/individualized learning environments. It is our duty to provide our children with such positive learning contexts, and over the last thirty years we have focused considerable effort on this area in Japan. Koji Kato, President of the Japanese Society of Education for Individual Development
