La Relevancia de las creencias sobre diversidad cultural en la formación del docente = The significance of beliefs on cultural diversity in the training of teachers

Uno de los rasgos más característicos de los centros educativos en estos momentos lo constituye la presencia de un alumnado culturalmente diverso. Gestionar de forma adecuada tal diversidad cultural y asegurar una educación de calidad para todos/as que posibilite la construcción de una ciudadanía plural, intercultural y democrática se plantea como uno de los retos más importantes a los que se enfrenta el sistema educativo en general y el profesorado en particular

Novice teachers' perceptions of the extent to which the Brock University teacher education program focused on methods of promoting responsibility in students

The purpose of this study was to determine novice t~ache~s' perceptions of th~ extent to which the Brock University teacher education program focused on strategies for promoting responsibility in students. Individual interviews were conducted with ten randomly selected teachers who were graduates of this teacher education program between the years of 1989 and 1992, and a follow-up group discussion activity, with the same teachers, was also held. Findings revealed that the topic of personal responsibility was discussed within various components of the program, including counselling group sessions, but that these discussions were often brief, indirect and inconsistent. Some of the strategies which the teachers used in their own classrooms to promote responsibility in students were ones which they had acquired from those counselling group °sessions or from associate teachers. Various strategies included: setting ~lear expectations of students with positive and negative consequences for behaviour (e.g., material rewards and detentions, respectively), cemmunic?ting'with other teachers an~ parents, and -. suspending students from school. A teacher's choice of any particular strategy seemed to be affected by his or her personality, teaching sUbject and region of employment, as well as certain aspects of the teacher education program. It was concluded that many of the teachers appeared to be controlling rude and vio~ent- behaviour, as opposed to promoting responsible behaviour. Recommendations were made for the pre-service program, as well as induction and inservice programs, to increase teacher preparedness for promoting responsible student behaviour. One of these recommendations addressed the need to help teachers learn how to effectively communicate with their students.

Futurs professionals, futurs investigadors. Enfocar la reflexió sobre la pràctica i començar a investigar en el pràcticum dels mestres

El període de pràcticum dels estudiants de Mestre/a (Infantil i Primària, en aquest cas) deixa marge a tot tipus d’iniciatives que enforteixin els vincles entre la universitat i el món laboral – facultat i escoles- i projectes de recerca que han de repercutir en la millora de l’ensenyament/aprenentatge dels practicants, dels mestres de les escoles i dels docents de la facultat. En el marc del pràcticum 08-09 a l’escola la Draga de Banyoles, es van donar les condicions necessàries perquè els projectes de pràcticum de les alumnes fossin alhora provatures d’investigacions innovadores: hi havia una practicant per a cada curs de P-3 (infantil) a 2n de Primària; hi havia un equip de mestres-tutores amb ganes d’investigar (constituïdes com a ICE). Els àmbits de recerca van ser dos: els gestos (didàctics) dels professors i les tècniques per analitzar-los; les noves formes de lectura i escriptura

Analysis of teachers training for ICT Higher Education

Aquest document pretén recollir aportacions teòriques i pràctiques sobre les pràctiques pedagògiques que incorporen i promouen l'ús de les TIC per tal d'aclarir, facilitar i fer coherent el disseny de la formació dels professors d'educació superior en les TIC.
