DIDÁCTICA DE LAS ARTES CON TIC, APRENDIZAJE COLABORATIVO E INTERDISCIPLINARIEDAD EN LA FORMACIÓN INICIAL DEL PROFESORADO

2021

El aprendizaje mediante las tecnologías de la información y comunicación y la interdisciplinariedad como ejes de la innovación pedagógica son aspectos que se deben fomentar en la Educación Superior desde la declaración de Bolonia, hace ya veinte años. Sin embargo, todavía no han arraigado lo suficiente en muchas aulas universitarias. Es por ello que se presenta un estudio sobre una experiencia educativa desarrollada por profesorado de las áreas de didáctica de la expresión musical, plástica y corporal con futuros docentes en formación. Los objetivos son promover el uso de las TIC, nuevos sistemas de comunicación de los trabajos académicos y el aprendizaje colaborativo e interdisciplinar ent…

Why is a live chicken banned from the kindergarten? Two lessons learned from teaching posthuman pedagogy to university students

2019

The hierarchical human-centric paradigm has been criticized by various movements of posthuman philosophy because this paradigm forgets and dismisses nonhuman beings and entities: animals, nature, objects, and technology. When I developed a course called ‘Education and Adaptations of Animal Studies’ for university students in 2015, I learned two lessons in practice. First, many humans, pedagogues, and academics want to hold on to their anthropocentric worldview that separates them from other species. Second, in pedagogical practices humans prefer to avoid confronting the violence they do toward animals. In this article, I reflect on these two lessons learned and consider what they tell us ab…

Dialogues of Joy : Shared Moments of Joy Between Teachers and Children in Early Childhood Education Settings

2019

Abstract The study focuses on teachers’ and children’s shared moments of joy in early childhood education settings and contributes new knowledge in educational research by exploring joy as a relational rather than an individual phenomenon. The theoretical and methodological framework draws on a narrative approach and Martin Buber’s dialogical philosophy. Data were gathered through video observations and diary notes in open ECE groups in Finland, with children from 2 to 6 years. The scenes of everyday life in ECE appeared to radiate an overall positive atmosphere. However, the relationship between shared joy and dialogue was multifaceted. On one hand, joyful moments between teachers and chil…

Habilidades predictoras de éxito en el aprendizaje inicial de la lectura y su relación con dos métodos de enseñanza

2019

Esta comunicación se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: http://ocs.editorial.upv.es/index.php/INRED/INRED2019/paper/viewFile/10403/4739 Este número está dedicado a la "Psicología de la Educación y Saberes Originarios". El estudio de los factores que influyen en la adquisición de la lectura facilita la detección temprana de las dificultades del aprendizaje lector. Destacan como habilidades predictoras: el conocimiento fonológico, el conocimiento alfabético y la velocidad de denominación. Todas ellas se adquieren a lo largo de la escolaridad pero no tienen el mismo grado de implicación en las distintas fases del aprendizaje lector. Esto parece depender, en parte, del método de enseñanz…

Is traditional teaching really all that bad? A within-student between-subject approach

2011

Abstract Recent studies conclude that teachers are important for student learning but it remains uncertain what actually determines effective teaching. This study directly peers into the black box of educational production by investigating the relationship between lecture style teaching and student achievement. Based on matched student–teacher data for the US, the estimation strategy exploits between-subject variation to control for unobserved student traits. Results indicate that traditional lecture style teaching is associated with significantly higher student achievement. No support for detrimental effects of lecture style teaching can be found even when evaluating possible selection bia…

What Research Shows about Mathematics Teachers' Learning Needs: Experience from Latvia

2015

<p><em>The implementation of new skills (competencies) according to education regulation documents in 2006 – 2008 demanded a change in the Mathematics and Science teaching practice in Latvia. Work on the new education reform started this year (2015). The aim of the research is to look for the answers to the following questions – do the changes in learning approach occur and are teachers’ skills sufficient for organizing a different teaching process? What are the learning needs expressed by teachers and concluded by experts? The range of cognitive activity, collaboration and focusing on students’ learning are the criteria set for lesson observations. The research shows a tendency…

Science of Pedagogy: Theory of Educational Discipline and Practice

2018

Abstract The article addresses and provides an introduction to pedagogy in its capacity of science and a university discipline in the field of education sciences. Nowadays not only teacher education programmes are embedded in theories and follow transitions of pedagogy. These have become even more complex, therefore, challenge new discussions in the evolving importance of human relations and transition towards learning-centred science of pedagogy to underpin practice of competence-oriented education. Based on the main historical processes in Latvia and along with informative insight into the practices of European universities and research, the article traces the traditional background of pe…

An Inquiry Based Approach to the study of energy exchange by thermal radiation

2012

A teaching-learning sequence regarding the investigation of energy exchange by thermal radiation, conduction and convection is under development within the context of “Establish”, a FP7 European Project aimed at promoting and developing Inquiry Based Science Education in European Secondary Schools. Here we present some relevant laboratory activities of this inquiry-oriented teaching/learning sequence for secondary school level students (or even first-level university ones), aimed at investigating the physics of energy transmission by thermal radiation. In traditional laboratory work, the focus of students activities is mostly dedicated on verifying information previously transferred by the …

Inquiry-Based Approach and Numerical Simulations: A Powerful Integration in Condensed Matter Physics Education

2020

In this chapter, we present and discuss two inquiry-based learning paths on condensed matter physics topics in which numerical simulations play a relevant role. The first one addresses the study of the electron transport dynamics via simulative explorations in 3D semiconductors. His emphasis is not on student modelling skills, but rather on a chain of reasoned investigations performed within a learning environment aimed at supporting a valuable understanding of the physics concepts underlying the complex world of semiconductor electronics. The second learning path is a 5E-cycle-based workshop of advanced physics targeted to strengthen student’s understanding of the various aspects of the Ha…
