A multi-componential methodology for exploring emotions in learning
2018
Studies on emotions in learning are often based on interviews conducted after the learning. Therefore, these do not capture the multi-componential nature of emotions and how emotions are related to the process of learning. We see emotions as dimensional and multi-componential responses to a personally meaningful events and situation. In this methodologically frontline study we developed a multi-componential methodology, which provides complementary information about emotions during learning. In this study, by using a within subject design of one person, we focused on emotions during the professional identity learning. In a laboratory setting, the subject was shown personally meaningful vide…
The process and content of advice giving in support of reflective practice in management consulting
2009
Although consulting has been defined as an ‘advice‐giving activity’ there has not been much research on advice practices in management consulting. In particular, there is a lack of evidence on how advice might assist in supporting another central issue in management work, namely reflective practice. This article approaches consulting from a discursive perspective and views reflective practice at the level of language use. The authors use data on naturally occurring talk during a single Organization Development (OD) consulting process and discursive methodology to examine these conversations, and offer empirical evidence on how advising can support reflective managerial practice. Examples of…
Riflessività e narrazione autobiografica per una cittadinanza digitale.
2019
Within nowadays information and knowledge society, training paths are exposed to changes due to technological development. These technological hints offer a plurality of communicative tools that endlessly extend the possibility of narrating, talking about oneself, telling oneself and being recognized. In this regard, the present paper deals with Digital Storytelling, with images, music, narration and voice woven together, offering new tools to revisit the narration, intertwining multimedia, interactivity and the web, with traditional practices. All this leads us to consider digital storytelling as a sort of modern version of the ancient art of storytelling (Rule, 2010). The educational chal…
La narración de la experiencia profesional como expresión del conocimiento en Trabajo Social
2015
La narración de la experiencia como expresión artística de la práctica profesional así como la posibilidad de obtener con ella un conocimiento son el objeto del artículo. Partiendo de la crítica al afán cientificista que parece dominar en el Trabajo Social en España, defendemos la necesidad de incorporar la experiencia a nuestra agenda investigadora de forma que permita adquirir una descripción más detallada y profunda de los problemas con los que tratamos y alcanzar así un tipo de conocimientos valiosos para la intervención social. En ese sentido, reivindicamos la integración de una práctica reflexiva en el ejercicio profesional que descubra la singularidad y complejidad de nuestra labor a…
Using the Reflective Journal to Improve Practical Skills Integrating Affective and Self-Critical Aspects in Impoverished International Environments. …
2021
The reflective practice journal is a teaching methodology that facilitates the acquisition of professional, attitudinal values and skills, affording comprehensive training by reflecting on experiences that have been lived and showing feelings that, a priori, would be hidden. Our aim was to implement it in the international practicum in impoverished environments as a facilitating instrument of meaningful learning and the acquisition of professional skills, integrating affective and self-critical aspects. The project was developed with Nursing students at Catholic University of Valencia, in an impoverished environment. Qualitative reflections increased, highlighting humanity, closeness and at…
Barriers and Bridges for Landscape Stewardship and Knowledge Production to Sustain Functional Green Infrastructures
2018
Sustainable landscapes and regions require both stewardship and management to sustain the composition, structure and function of ecosystems as a base for delivering human benefits. This complex is captured by the topic of ecosystem services. To deliver these, the concept green (or blue) infrastructure emerged as a tool for spatial planning of networks of natural and semi-natural areas. Such planning requires evidence-based knowledge about both ecological and social systems. For ecosystems, states and trends need be monitored, and improved knowledge must be developed about ecological tipping points for assessment of sustainability, as well as measures for conservation, management and restora…
Using Kaleidoscopic Pedagogy to Foster Critically Reflective Learning About Management and Leadership
2019
This chapter focuses on an Arts-Based Intervention (ABI) into an Introductory course of Management and Leadership offered to students considering key concepts and frames of thinking in the field for the first time. First, we introduce Kaleidoscopic Pedagogy and conceptually frame our ABI in relation to the mode of learning that it allows for together with the drive for equality that it is concerned with. We then introduce the context of the ABI, describe the course and its background and the course facilitators together with information about the participants. Emphasis is placed on the way the course was framed to bring a sense of present-day management reality through our use of art-based …
Promuovere e valutare le abilità di pensiero critico nella formazione iniziale degli insegnanti
2019
L'articolo presenta una ricerca che analizza e valuta un percorso di formazione dei futuri insegnanti di scuola primaria e dell’infanzia, per lo sviluppo delle abilità costitutive del pensiero critico durante il terzo anno del tirocinio universitario. Si è inteso conoscere gli esiti conseguiti da 200 soggetti, prossimi all’insegnamento nella scuola, quando pianificano e realizzano un intervento in classe, e quali possibili difficoltà incontrano nelle fasi di sviluppo dell’azione didattica programmata. La progettazione didattica è stata utilizzata dagli studenti sia come struttura sia come guida dell’azione, perché ha preparato la sequenza delle attività di insegnamento, ha anticipato l’orga…
Fostering learning and innovation skills in Initial Teacher Education
2018
L'opportunità di partecipare attivamente alla formazione iniziale degli insegnanti e l'esperienza di ricerca svolta durante il dottorato ha consentito all’a. di verificare come creare, attraverso l’uso delle tecnologie, ambienti di apprendimento e situazioni didattiche che migliorano le soft skills dei futuri docenti. È stato così possibile esplorare nuovi ambienti di apprendimento e di insegnamento, nuove forme organizzative e nuove modalità di interazione tra docenti e studenti verificandone la validità e l’efficacia. Le conclusioni ricavate dalla ricerca hanno fornito indicazioni utili per il miglioramento delle competenze trasversali dei futuri docenti. Numerous studies reveal that ther…
Towards Sustaining Levels of Reflective Learning: How Do Transformational Leadership, Task Interdependence, and Self-Efficacy Shape Teacher Learning …
2015
Whereas cross-sectional research has shown that transformational leadership, task interdependence, and self-efficacy are positively related to teachers’ engagement in reflective learning activities, the causal direction of these relations needs further inquiry. At the same time, individual teacher learning might play a mutual role in strengthening school-level capacity for sustained improvement. Building on previous research, this longitudinal study therefore examines how transformational leadership, task interdependence, self-efficacy, and teachers’ engagement in self-reflection mutually affect each other over time. Questionnaire data gathered on three measurement occasions from 655 Dutch …
