It also considers the question of how the similarities contribute to the continuity from preschool to primary school in terms of participation. Based on observation data insights are provided into the interactions between teachers and children by using extracts from teacher‐led learning sessions.

Evolución de los modelos docentes de futuros profesores de economía de secundaria, a través de la metáfora
2016
A través de un cuestionario de preguntas abiertas, este estudio analiza la evolución de las metáforas personales de una muestra de profesores en formación de la especialidad de Economía del Máster Universitario en Formación del Profesorado en Educación Secundaria, durante el curso 2012/2013. Para el análisis se han adaptado las cuatro categorías de Leavy, McSorley y Boté (2007): conductistas-transmisivas, cognitivas-constructivistas, situadas y autorreferenciadas. Los resultados indican que la mayoría de los participantes fueron capaces de conceptualizar sus roles en términos de metáforas. Al comparar las metáforas, antes y después de las prácticas de enseñanza, se produce una evolución pro…

Action research as a school-based strategy in intercultural professional development for teachers
2011
Abstract Teacher professional development is a key factor for transforming professional and school culture. This article describes a case study undertaken in a Spanish school during the 2007–2008 academic year. Our aim is to explain how action research methodology was applied to encourage professional and school culture towards an intercultural and inclusive approach. Our results show that the training process challenged teachers’ pre-existing deficit theory perspectives and empowered them as leaders for school change. The conclusions identify the key factors that enabled teachers to engage in critical reflection, and to implement strategies for collaborative work and community participatio…

Mismos caminos, distintos destinos. Explorando el efecto de las trayectorias educativas y del origen social en las transiciones hacia la educación po…
2020
Las transiciones a la educación postobligatoria son un elemento clave para comprender las desigualdades educativas y sociales. La elección de los estudios postobligatorios por parte de los y las jóvenes está mediada por patrones de desigualdad social, así como por sus trayectorias y experiencias escolares previas. Partiendo de este marco, este artículo responde al objetivo de comprender de qué forma las trayectorias escolares de los y las jóvenes en la etapa de la educación obligatoria contribuyen a explicar sus elecciones acerca del itinerario postobligatorio. Más allá de un análisis que incorpore los factores descriptivos de las trayectorias escolares -como la repetición de curso o el ren…

Mediated action in teachers’ discussions about mathematics tasks
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: ZDM. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11858-012-0423-0 This paper presents analyses of teachers’ discussions within mathematics teaching developmental research projects, taking mediation as the central construct. The relations in the so-called ‘didactic triangle’ form the basic framework for the analysis of two episodes in which upper secondary school teachers discuss and prepare tasks for classroom use. The analysis leads to the suggestion that the focus on tasks places an emphasis on the task as object and its resolution as goal; mathematics has the role of a mediating artefact. Subject content in the didactic…
