Reflexions sorgides del Màster de Secundària entorn de demandes innovadores de l'educació lingüística
2011
Les reflexions sobre innovació en educació lingüística que es desgranen en aquest article estan directament extretes de la meva experiència acadèmica, curta però intensa, durant el treball desenvolupat amb el meu alumnat de l'especialitat de Llengües i Literatures del Màster en Professorat d'Educació Secundària en l'assignatura comuna als itineraris de les diferents procedències filològiques anomenada Innovació docent i iniciació a la investigació educativa. Són reflexions que inclouen, també, les riques percepcions que m'han aportat les alumnes i alumnes participants en les dues edicions d'aquest curs de postgrau a la meva universitat.
Performance Assessment of Generic and Domain-Specific Skills in Higher Education Economics
2020
Following criticisms by employers about academic graduates’ lack of 21st century skills, students need to develop skills such as professional knowledge, critical thinking and problem solving. Accordingly, there is a demand for suitable assessments of these skills. One approach is to develop a performance assessment using tasks adapted from real-world decision-making and judgment situations that students and graduates have to face in academic and professional domains. Such tasks employ real-life scenarios and require generic and domain-specific skills in different facets to handle a given problem adequately. In this paper, we present a newly developed performance assessment that aims to meas…
Shared Sequences from Network Therapy with Adolescents Only the therapist Finds Meaningful
2016
As part of a larger research project, this qualitative study explores sequences from six network therapy sessions. We focused on these sequences because only the therapists found them to be meaningful; the other participants did not think they were significant. The aim of this study was to explore the therapists’ inner dialogues, the degree to which these inner dialogues consist of professional and personal voices, and what this means for the dialogical process. We used a multi-perspective methodology that combines video recordings of network therapy sessions, participants’ interviews, and text analysis. We found that the outer dialogue and the therapists’ inner dialogues are strongly relat…
Relationships between Domain-Specific Knowledge, Generic Attributes, and Instructional Skills
2020
We introduce a theoretical framework on teachers’ instructional skills to describe how they can be modeled across different domains. This framework conceptualizes teachers’ instructional skills as action-related skills (during instruction) and reflective skills (before and after instruction), which are considered crucial for coping with the practical demands of everyday teaching in a specific subject. The theoretical framework assumes that both skill facets are influenced by the teacher’s professional knowledge, generic attributes such as general cognitive abilities or ambiguity tolerance as well as affective and motivational factors. To investigate the relationships between teachers’ instr…
Teacher competencies in game-based pedagogy
2018
This study examines what kind of competencies teachers need in using game-based pedagogy (GBP). In our conceptual framework, GBP entails four approaches: using educational games or entertainment games, learning by making games, and using gamification in learning. Our data, consisting of teachers’ documentation, thematic interviews and questionnaires, were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Four main competence areas were identified: pedagogical, technological, collaborative and creative. The results are applicable for developing teacher education and in-service training, as teacher competencies in game-based learning will be more integral to teachers’ professional knowledge and sk…
The paradoxical management of service skills
2015
This paper focuses on service skills which are mobilized by front office agents when they are involved with customers. These skills are most of the time tacit. We consider that the way in which firms recognize these skills and contribute to their development is an important management issue. It is all the more important that a lot of jobs combine poor levels of qualification and highly situated skills.
Experiencia de reflexión con un profesor de biología chileno acerca de su práctica de enseñanza
2020
Las prácticas de enseñanza, por su naturaleza contextual y forma particular de implementarse, pueden favorecer o limitar los aprendizajes en el contexto escolar. En esa perspectiva, se diseña un estudio de caso que indaga en el contenido de la reflexión acerca de la práctica de enseñanza de un profesor de biología en servicio. Para ello, el profesor realiza una observación crítica de su práctica, comentando todas aquellas situaciones de enseñanza que le resultan preocupantes. Cada observación comentada fue profundizada a través de una entrevista focalizada. La información de las observaciones comentadas y entrevistas focalizadas fue analizada con el software Atlas-ti 8.0. De ahí emergieron …

2007
El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido conocer el pensamiento de los alumnos sobre la Educacion Fisica y sus profesores. Para ello, 788 estudiantes de Educacion Secundaria Obligatoria (337 alumnos y 451 alumnas) han respondido a un cuestionario abierto en el que se les preguntaba que es lo que mas y lo que menos les gusta de EF, como se imaginan a su profesor/a ideal de EF, y las tres caracteristicas mas importantes que deberia tener su profesor o profesora de EF. Tras un analisis de contenido de las respuestas de los alumnos se concluye que las cosas que mas les gustan de EF son las practicas de deportes de equipo y los juegos y actividades variadas; las cosas que menos les gustan son los eje…
