Key issues in secondary education : introductory readings.

Este recurso se refiere principalmente a la labor docente en las escuelas secundarias. Aunque este enfoque no puede ser separado de otras muchas cuestiones de interés educativo, su principal objetivo es introducir a los profesores en formación en una serie de temas que son de decisiva importancia en el desarrollo profesional para todos los que enseñan en la educación secundaria. Algunos de ellos son cuestiones fundamentalmente cognitivas, por ejemplo, la naturaleza y el desarrollo de la inteligencia, o diferentes estilos de aprendizaje y cómo se relacionan con los estilos de enseñanza. Otros, sin embargo, tienen que ver con el desarrollo personal, moral, espiritual, social y político de los jóvenes, cuestiones que son fundamentales para la enseñanza secundaria en el nuevo milenio.

CLIL materials in Secondary Education: focusing on the language of instruction in the subject area of Mathematics

[EN]Applying a CLIL methodological approach marks a shift in emphasis from language learning based on linguistic form and grammatical progression to a more ‘language acquisition’ one which takes account language functions. In this article we will study the elements of the “language of instruction” of the area of Maths in Secondary Education, by focusing on the analysis of the communicative functions, and the lexical and the cultural items present in the textbook in use. Our aim is to present the CLIL teacher with the linguistic and didactic implications that he or she should take into consideration when implementing the bilingual syllabuses with their students. In order to do that, we will present our conclusions emphasizing the need for coordination in different content areas, linguistic and communicative contents, between the foreign language teacher and the CLIL subject one.

Impact of new technologies and social networks on a secondary education theatre project

This paper describes the potential impact of social media and new technologies in secondary education. The case of study has been designed for the drama and theatre subject. A wide set of tools like social networks, blogs, internet, multimedia content, local press and other promotional tools are promoted to increase students’ motivation. The experiment was developed at the highschool IES Al-Satt located in Algete in the Comunidad de Madrid. The students included in the theatre group present a low academic level, 80% of them had previously repeated at least one grade, half of them come from programs for students with learning difficulties and were at risk of social exclusion. This action is supported by higher and secondary education professors and teachers who look forward to implanting networked media technologies as new tools to improve the academic results and the degree of involvement of students. The results of the experiment have been excellent, based on satisfactory opinions obtained from a survey answered by students at the end of the course, and also revealed by the analytics taken from different social networks. This project is a pioneer in the introduction and usage of new technologies in secondary high-schools in Spain.
