I Like Cities; Do You Like Letters? Introducing Urban Typography in Art Education
2010
This article proposes a study of the letters and graphics found in the city, while at the same time opening up unusual spaces linked to the cultural arena and visual geographies for the creation of learning spaces in art education, introducing urban typography for training teachers. The letters in urban spaces can help us reinterpret the patrimonial fabric of cities. With the help of typography, visual arts educators have a powerful graphic resource with which to articulate the complex communicative network of streets. We suggest walking as an aesthetic practice; strolling around the city as a very cultural means to motivate our students. We have at our disposal in our cities a genuine muse…

Ausencias relevantes en la teoria del curriculum.
2020
Se señalan en el artículo algunas ausencias significativas sobre el modo en que la teoría se ha venido enfrentando al currículum, con especial énfasis sobre lo ocurrido en el contexto español. La historia política del currículum, la mirada desde estudios culturales, la producción de los regímenes de verdad en el currículum, la falta de problematización de las narrativas modernas que inspiran e impregnan la producción curricular o la oportunidad de considerar la ciudad como currículum son algunos de los aspectos que se comentan. Some significant absences are pointed out in the article about the way in which the theory has been confronting the curriculum, with special emphasis on what happene…

Entrepreneurship Training and Self-Employment among University Graduates
2012
In economies characterized by low labor demand and high rates of youth unemployment, entrepreneurship training has the potential to enable youth to gain skills and create their own jobs. This paper presents experimental evidence on a new entrepreneurship track that provides business training and personalized coaching to university students in Tunisia. Undergraduates in the final year of licence appliquee were given the opportunity to graduate with a business plan instead of following the standard curriculum. This paper relies on randomized assignment of the entrepreneurship track to identify impacts on labor market outcomes one year after graduation. The analysis finds that the entrepreneur…
Cultures in Dialogue: Perceptions and Experiences of Finnish Teachers of Transnational Dances
2012
This article is based on a phenomenographic study that focuses on identifying the pedagogical conceptions of Finnish teachers of transnational dances. The purpose is to uncover and understand teachers' conceptions concerning the implications of the cultural contexts of their specific dance forms for their pedagogical practices. Through a process of phenomenographic data analysis, the authors have identified three different ways to understand teachers' conceptions and experiences: (1) Dance as a path towards personal expression, (2) Telling a story of being a woman through dance, and (3) Self-approval and the collective nature of dance. The study aims at facilitating discussion about the pro…
An English teacher's ways of motivating students in Dangerous Minds and Dead Poets Society
2014
Pedagogiikassa ja kielenopetuksen tutkimuksessa on jo vuosia painotettu motivaation merkitystä sekä oppilaille että opettajille ja motivaation vaikutusta oppimiseen. Motivaatiota on tutkittu laajasti ja monipuolisesti samoin kuin vaikuttavia tekijöitä oppilasmotivaatiossa, mutta englannin opettajan keinoja motivoida oppilaita ei ole tarkasteltu samalla aktiivisuudella. Täydentääkseen tätä tutkimuskenttää tämä tutkielma tutkii nimenomaan englannin opettajien keinoja motivoida oppilaita esitettynä elokuvissa Dangerous Minds sekä Dead Poets Society. Tutkimus keskustelee myös siitä, voidaanko näitä keinoja soveltaa käytännön opetustyöhön ja kuinka hyvin nämä keinot vastaavat motivoivan opetukse…
Mathematics teaching development: Learning from developmental research in Norway
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: ZDM - International Journal on Mathematics Education. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11858-013-0567-6 This paper is a product of mathematics teaching developmental research projects based on establishing communities of inquiry comprising schoolteachers working at all grades and university-based teacher educator/researchers (didacticians). The projects are established on the principle that teachers taking an inquiry stance in their practice can assert their agency to develop their teaching to enable improved learning experiences for their students. The educational context and the societal pressure to develop ma…
Perceptions and behaviour of cruise tourists during their visit to a port of call
2019
[EN] The purpose of the present research is to assess the perceptions of authenticity and crowding of cruise tourists visiting a port of call and its influence on their future behavioural intentions. The research was carried out in the city of Valencia, because it is one of the main Spanish cruise ports and is a representative city of the Mediterranean ports of call for the cruise business. A total of 467 valid interviews were obtained. For the analysis of data, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS version 22.0) was used. The findings reveal that Valencia is perceived as an authentic destination with moderate levels of human and spatial crowding. The analysis also demonstra…
