Los peces: una unidad didáctica en una escuela "diferente"
2014
En este estudio de casos se describe y se interpreta reflexivamente una experiencia didáctica centrada en el tema “Los Peces”, y desarrollada en un primer grado de educación primaria dentro de una escuela innovadora. Se llevó un registro sistemático de lo sucedido, se recopilaron documentos y se realizaron entrevistas. Para la interpretación de lo observado, se trabajó con siete categorías que intentan destacar importantes características de la experiencia: un aprendizaje vinculado al mundo exterior, disponibilidad de suficientes recursos, la excesiva delimitación del tema en estudio, apertura frente a estructura en el trabajo didáctico, niños y niñas protagonistas, una escuela de rica vida…
THE BEHAVE APPLICATION: AN EVIDENCE-BASED TOOL TO MANAGE SOCIAL EMOTIONAL BEHAVIOURAL DIFFICULTIES
2019
Social Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (SEBD) are a persistent and multiple manifestation of maladaptive behaviours which interfere with the students' learning, social functioning and development and/or that of their peers. They may become apparent through withdrawn, passive, aggressive or self-injurious tendencies. The prevalence of these disorders is 2-16% of the general population. Children with SEBD, diagnosed or not, are likely to live in social isolation, to receive a poor education, and they risk becoming deviant teenagers, or unemployed adults. A way to approach SEBD with consistent level of educational success is to equip teachers with proper training on practical and proven…

Mutual Trust between Kindergarten Teachers and Mothers and its Associations with Family Characteristics in Estonia and Finland
2011
Mutual trust between mothers and kindergarten teachers along with its relation to mother’s educational level and child’s gender was studied in two neighboring countries—Estonia and Finland. From Estonia 543 ratings of mothers and 232 ratings of teachers were collected, and, from Finland, 712 ratings of mothers and 712 ratings of teachers. Trust was assessed with shortened questionnaires based on the Trust scale. More Finnish than Estonian mothers reported a higher level of trust towards the teacher while no significant difference was found for teachers. The associations between the level of mothers’ and teachers’ trust and mother’s education were different in each country.
READING COMPETENCE AND ENGAGEMENT OF LATVIAN STUDENTS IN THE VIEW OF OECD PISA 2018 RESULTS
2020
Students' reading competence determines the achievements of learners in all areas of school education as well as in their further education, professional activity and life. The results of the OECD Program for International Student Assessment - OECD PISA 2018 confirm the need to improve reading competence in Latvia (OECD, 2019).The aim of the study is to analyze the achievement of Latvia's fifteen-year-old students in OECD PISA 2018 and the previous international program cycles in relation to students' reading engagement and its changes. Reading engagement significantly influences not only students' reading competence but are in themselves one of the goals of modern education (Guthrie & …
¿Cómo deciden les jóvenes la transición a la educación postobligatoria? Diferencias entre centros públicos y privados-concertados

Background of INCASI Project H2020-MSCA-RISE-2015 GA 691004. WP1: Compilation El objetivo del presente artículo es examinar el papel que juega la titularidad del centro en el que se cursa la educación secundaria obligatoria (ESO) en la decisión de transitar a la educación postobligatoria. En dicha encrucijada se contemplan también otras variables que se han constatado de gran peso en la toma de decisión como son las notas previas obtenidas, el nivel formativo familiar, el sexo, las expectativas y las aspiraciones, partiendo del modelo decisional de transiciones educativas[1] que contempla el modelo de Boudon sobre los efectos primarios y secundarios. Los resultados obtenidos son los derivad…
Representaciones y prácticas docentes en torno a la dictadura de Franco
2021
En este artículo llevamos a cabo un estudio de caso centrado en 5 docentes españoles en relación con el tratamiento educativo que llevan a cabo de la dictadura franquista. Se parte de una contextualización general acerca del periodo histórico de la dictadura de Franco (1936-39 y 1975-78), tema social y políticamente candente que tiene su correlato a nivel educativo al estar presente en el currículo de la educación secundaria y bachillerato. Esta investigación pone el foco en el profesorado, que traduce en el contexto del aula una serie de ideas y representaciones sobre la dictadura, algo que está condicionado por su nivel formativo, el contexto sociopolítico actual y la concreción curricula…
Enseñar Sociología a quienes no estudian Sociología
2019
[EN] The sociological imagination (Wright Mills, 1993) is fundamental in the teaching profession. It is not possible to understand individuals’ actions of the different education agents without knowing their place in the social structure. The objective of this proposal is that the students of the Degree in Preschool Education (University of Valencia) achieve this point of view. The project starts with a flipped classroom methodology in combination with other active methodologies to end contrasting scientific knowledge with the daily teacher’s work, through the realization and analyses of interviews.
Creating a bilingual pre-school classroom: the multilayered discourses of a bilingual teacher
2015
Teachers have an agentive role as they interpret, evaluate and develop language policies and practices. In the current study we interviewed a bilingual pre-school teacher in Finland during the first year of implementing a new way of working bilingually with a class of monolingual children. Applying nexus analysis, we explored the teacher discourses on the trajectory of the development of the new approach; the concepts, places and people that were circulating in her reflections; and how these connected with larger societal discourses. The analysis showed that the teacher's new bilingual language practices demanded the renegotiation of previously held personal and professional beliefs. The te…
Two languages in the air : a cross-cultural comparison of preschool teachers’ reflections on their flexible bilingual practices
2016
Bilingual preschool education is under researched compared with bilingual school education. There is also a lack of research on bilingual preschool teachers’ agency and how they negotiate between two languages in the classroom. We examined the language practices of five bilingual preschool teachers working within three different socio-linguistic settings, in Finland (Finnish–Swedish and Russian–Finnish contexts) and Israel (an Arabic–Hebrew context) and interviewed the teachers about their use of languages in the classroom. We found that in each context the teachers reported modifications to an initial bilingual education model over time: from a strict separation of languages, to flexible b…
