Universidad e Hispanidad. Tres décadas de trayectorias entrecruzadas del ministro José Ibáñez Martín y el catedrático exiliado Mariano Ruiz-Funes
2017
Presentamos la lucha desde el exilio intelectual republicano contra dos de las políticas del franquismo, la reforma de la universidad y la apropiación del término de hispanidad para los fines propagandísticos y proselitistas del nuevo régimen. Estas cuestiones son tratadas a partir de las trayectorias profesionales y vitales de dos políticos destacados, Mariano Ruiz-Funes y José Ibáñez Martín, desde sus inicios en la provincia de Murcia durante la década de 1920, en la cátedra de derecho penal uno y de enseñanza secundaria el otro, su militancia política, los servicios en misiones internacionales durante la guerra y, finalmente, la actividad de uno en la Unión de Profesores Universitarios E…
El tratamiento de los phrasal verbs en los manuales de inglés lengua extranjera
2020
In this article we will study how phrasal verbs (PhVs) are dealt with in a representative sample of EFL student’s books of Secondary Education and Baccalaureate. From both a quantitative and qualitative point of view, the following aspects will be analysed: (i) whether PhVs are explicitly included into the index of each manual; (ii) whether there are any specific theoretical sections explaining their syntactic and semantic characteristics (and if so, what they consist of); (iii) whether there are any activities and/or exercises designed to practice and internalize these structures and, if any, to which methodological approach they attend; if any differences in the treatment of the PhVs may …

Enhancing Dialogic Argumentation in Mathematics and Science
2017
This paper reports on a teacher professional development (PD) programme addressing dialogic argumentation in mathematics and science classrooms. While argumentation skills are becoming more and more important in an increasingly polarised society, the social aspect of argumentation is often neglected in secondary education. Moreover, it is agreed that genuine argumentation requires time and space in classroom dialogue. There have been calls for research delving into how teachers could be familiarised with dialogic argumentation so that they could foster such dialogue in students. The described PD programme features versatile and continuous cooperation between scholars and participating teach…
Sourcing on the internet: Examining the relations among different phases of online inquiry
2021
This study examined students’ engagement in sourcing throughout online inquiry, that is, when they specified the information need, formulated search queries, evaluated online texts, and composed a written product. Participants were 167 upper secondary school students. Students completed an online inquiry task in a restricted online environment that utilized authentic online texts. Students’ prior topic knowledge and reading fluency was measured and controlled for in the analysis. The results showed that students engaged in sourcing even in the earliest phases of online inquiry. A sequential regression analysis indicated that the more frequently students engaged in sourcing in specifying the…
Diferències de sexe i edat en la disposició empàtica dels estudiants de secundària
2010
Aquest treball presenta una aproximació a l'estudi de l'empatia i de les variables que influeixen en el seu desenvolupament. L'objectiu principal és determinar en quina mesura influeixen la variable de sexe i la variable d'edat en la disposició empàtica dels adolescents. L'estudi es realitza amb una mostra d'estudiants de secundària (n = 114), homes i dones. Els resultats indiquen que les dues variables analitzades (sexe i edat) tenen un efecte significatiu sobre l'empatia. Les dones es mostren més empàtiques que els homes en totes les dimensions que mesura l'escala IRI. A mesura que avancen en edat, els adolescents mostren una major capacitat per a posar-se en el lloc de l'altre i comprend…

The following four sections of the book concern assessment and motivation (Chapters 4-5); English vocabulary, reading comprehension and exposure to English (Chapters 6-9); students’ L1 proficiency and development through CLIL (Cha…
