Este artículo muestra las opiniones de los inspectores educativos respecto a las prácticas de evaluación de los profesores de Geografía e Historia de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) en la Región de Murcia, concretamente lo relativo a instrumentos y fases de evaluación, las concepciones sobre la calificación y la evaluación por competencias básicas. Los datos han sido extraídos mediante cuestionarios. Los resultados indican que las prácticas de evaluación de los profesores de Geografía e Historia no han variado en el tiempo a pesar de la introducción de novedades legislativas. El examen basado en contenidos conceptuales sigue siendo el instrumento de evaluación más importante. Todo el…
El huerto escolar como herramienta innovadora que contribuye al desarrollo competencial del estudiante universitario. Una propuesta educativa multidi…
2017
El huerto escolar es un recurso pedagógico que permite aproximar al alumnado al entorno natural diseñando experiencias interdisciplinares que contribuyan al desarrollo de las competencias básicas. En el ámbito universitario facilita el aprendizaje cooperativo y la adquisición de habilidades socioambientales. El proyecto L’Hort 2.0 pretende crear un entorno virtual basado en el huerto escolar para la administración de contenidos TIC que permitan enlazar las actividades fuera del aula con el contenido de las guías docentes. Se trabaja mediante una metodología activa y colaborativa, en tres fases: preparación y diseño del entorno web en seis áreas temáticas; elaboración de materiales educativo…
The development of fundamental motor skills of four‐ to five‐year‐old preschool children and the effects of a preschool physical education curriculum
2011
Altogether 38 girls and 46 boys aged four to five years were studied to analyse the linear and non‐linear development of fundamental motor skills. The children were grouped into one experimental and one control group to study the effects of an eight‐month preschool physical education curriculum. In the course of one year, the balance skills of the girls, the running speed of the boys and the standing broad‐jump and manipulative skills of both genders progressed linearly according to the children's age. Two weekly 45‐minute physical education lessons instructed by preschool teachers promoted the linear development of the girls' standing broad‐jump and non‐linear development of the boys' runn…
Basic skills provision for the have‐nots: a rights hoax? Re‐examining international standards on the right to education
2011
In the present era of accelerating globalisation of the labour market and education, access to knowledge of value has become increasingly complicated. This study enquired into the rights to post‐compulsory basic education by analysing the contemporary standard‐setting instruments of the United Nations, the Council of Europe and the European Community. An analytical scheme was developed that suggested four interconnected areas of education legislation, disregard of which cumulatively maintains exclusion of educationally disadvantaged individuals from knowledge and skills with proper value in the job market. The four thematic aspects identified were rights, recognition, resources and represen…
Divu valodu salīdzinošā analīze bilingvāli runājošiem: franču un nūfu valodā
2022
Šis darbs sniedz atbildi uz problēmjautājumiem, kas rodas bilingvālajās kopienās visā pasaulē, lai parādītu valodu prakses ietekmi uz runātāja ikdienas dzīvi. Daudzvalodu valstīs, piemēram, Kamerūnā, kur valodu skaits sasniedz 250, bilingvāli runājošie, šajā gadījumā franču-nu'fī valodā runājošie, izjūt savas valodas lietošanas pozitīvu vai negatīvu ietekmi. Minētajā kontekstā bilingvālo prasmju lietošana nepaliek bez ietekmes uz runātāju. Viņi var izjust pozitīvu vai negatīvu kognitīvo ietekmi atkarībā no apgūtajām prasmēm. Ja kompetences līmenis ir ļoti zems, kognitīvai ietekmei ir apvērsuma efekts, ja kompetences līmenis abās valodās ir pietiekošs vai līdzvērtīgs, runātājs izjūt pozitīvu…
Bridging the gap between research and practice : using phenomenographic findings to develop training for career practitioners
2021
AbstractThis study contends that phenomenography offers both a useful research method and practical tools for developing education and training for career practitioners. After introducing the basic principles of phenomenography, the study reviews previous research on its potential in developing pedagogical practices. It explores how the phenomenographic findings were utilized to design an online skills training programme for career practitioners. The study finds that phenomenographic research serves three practical pedagogical purposes: (1) revealing how learners understand certain concepts or phenomena, (2) elucidating how these understandings differ; and (3) identifying critical aspects i…
Adolescents' school-related self-concept mediates motor skills and psychosocial well-being.
2014
Background The health benefits of exercise participation and physical activity for mental health and psychosocial well-being (PSWB) have been shown in several studies. However, one important background factor, that is, motor skills (MSs), has largely been ignored. In addition, most of the existing research focuses on poor MSs, that is, poor MSs are often connected to poorer PSWB. The mechanism linking MSs and PSWB is unclear. However, a preliminary suggestion has been made that self-worth or self-perceptions might mediate the association between MSs and PSWB. Aim We investigated whether the self-concepts (SCs) of school-related physical education (SCPE), reading (SCR), and mathematics (SCM)…
Gaining or losing PhDs: What are the effects on firms' linkages with universities?
2023
PhD graduates can help companies transfer knowledge from universities to firms. Scholars have analysed the determinants of PhD recruitment by firms and its effects on their innovation activities. However, little is known about what happens when a firm loses employees with PhDs. The aim of this paper is to compare the effects on the relationships of firms with universities when these firms lose PhDs versus when they hire PhDs to work in R&D. These effects may be symmetrical or non-symmetrical depending on the abilities of firms to retain the connections and knowledge acquired by hiring PhDs. We consider four types of relationships: collaboration with universities, universities as a source of…
Physical activity intention and attendance behaviour in Finnish youth with cerebral palsy – results from a physical activity intervention: an applica…
2021
Physical activity is associated with better health in individuals with cerebral palsy (CP). Numerous physical activity interventions have been designed to promote physical activity among youth with CP. No previous studies have explored the factors contributing to the intention to participate and predicting attendance behaviour for these interventions. Using theory of planned behaviour (TPB), this study explored the prediction of physical activity intention and attendance behaviour in a physical activity intervention aiming to promote physical activity in a sample of young individuals with CP. Males with CP aged 9–21 years were asked to complete measures of attitude, subjective norms, percei…
