Recent tensions and challenges in teacher education as manifested in curriculum discourse
2010
This study seeks to contribute to discussions on the development of teacher education by analysing teacher educators' talk concerning curriculum reform. The curriculum is understood as a mediating construction between teacher educators and the social context, and the development of the curriculum is seen as a negotiation process between global discourses and local actors. Our aim was to understand the contrasting discourses used by teacher educators in talking about curriculum development, on the grounds that such discourses frame interpretations that direct the implementation of teacher education as a whole. Five contrasting interpretative repertoires were found. We illustrate these and di…

Enriching primary student teachers’ conceptions about science teaching: Towards dialogic inquirybased teaching
2012
Inquiry-based teaching has been at the heart of science education since it was first outlined in national standards over a decade ago. The general idea behind the inquiry guidelines is that pupils would adopt ways of conducting science, in addition to conceptually learning, thus attaining also the epistemological dimension of science. Although curricula are based on these ideas of inquiry, all too often authentic inquiry is hindered by overly authoritative approaches and teacher directions. To avoid this, the communicational ways in which teachers can encourage pupil reasoning during different phases of inquiry should be explicitly addressed. This paper addresses this gap by introducing a d…

Background The World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledges the importance of preschool children taking part in comprehensive physical activities supporting, among other things, their motor development, and competencies.

Didàctica de l'educació física de l'educació infantil
2013
El document ha sigut revisat pel SPL de la Universitat de València Des del moment del naixement, (fins i tot abans), el nostre cos constitueix el límit necessari que ens permet la relació amb nosaltres mateixos (percepció del jo) i amb l'entorn. Aquesta percepció ens possibilita l’aprenentatge, fruit de la interacció amb el món que ens envolta. Un món ple d’estímuls, de reptes, de límits i de possibilitats. Els sentits són les finestres per on es cola l’univers i el moviment és el mitjà a través del qual eixim al seu encontre. Es converteix així el cos i el moviment, alhora en instrument i en meta en un procés global en el qual el xiquet aprén en moviment i a través d’ell. Un desenvolupamen…
Relación entre formación universitaria y competencia mediática del profesorado
2019
Este trabajo muestra el vínculo entre los niveles de competencia mediática del profesorado no universitario y la formación recibida por el profesorado de acuerdo con los actuales currículos universitarios en España. A partir de nuestro análisis, que se llevó a cabo a partir de los currículos de todas las universidades españolas con formación en educación (un total de 252 grados) y de un diagnóstico de competencia mediática de profesores no universitarios (906 sujetos) de nueve provincias españolas, llegamos a la conclusión de que existe una relación coherente entre estas dimensiones. En otras palabras, las deficiencias en la competencia mediática del personal docente no universitario son un…
