La construcción narrativa de la identidad en un contexto educativo intercultural = The narrative construction of identity in a intercultural educative setting

En este trabajo se expone e ilustra un modelo teórico para entender las funciones de la identidad, así como los mecanismospsicosociales asociados a su construcción: “Modelo Evolutivo y Funcional de la Identidad Mediada” (MEBIM). La identidad, mediada narrativamente, cumple una función personal orientada a la dirección de la propia vida, así como una función sociocultural vinculada a la búsqueda de reconocimiento de los derechos de los grupos sociales a los que uno se siente apegado. Se ilustran los factores asociados a la construcción de la identidad personal (sí mismos posibles, transiciones vitales, vínculo afectivo) y sociocultural (acción-transformación e identificación simbólica) a partir de 12 historias de vida realizadas con mestizos e indígenasde la Universidad Intercultural de Chiapas (México). Se sugiere que en contextos educativos formales, como la escuela o la Universidad, se deben propiciar narrativas personales y socioculturales con el objetivo de optimizar la identidad en un mundo a la vez globalizado y plural

Referents de l'educació intercultural

La societat en què vivim cada cop és més diversa i complexa. Per això és essencial trobar uns paràmetres comuns que permetin la convivència i la comunicació intercultural entre les diverses cultures que conformen el teixit social actual en el territori de la Unió Europea. En la mesura en què aquestes persones provinents d'altres països tinguin garantits els drets civils essencials, com a ciutadans de ple dret, estarem posant les bases d'una futura convivència productiva per a tothom i estarem deixant un llegat de pau social imprescindible per al progrés de la nostra societat. Un dels pilars bàsics d'aquest accés a la plena ciutadania per part de tots els habitants dels estats europeus és l'educació. Sovint trasbalsada per múltiples canvis legislatius, l'educació ara per ara no té cap altre sortida que ser intercultural, com a reflex fidel d'allò que està passant en la societat. El repte és preparar els professionals i implicar-hi a tots els agents educatius i promoure el desenvolupament ple de totes les capacitats dels alumnes, alhora que els prepara per a una transició al món laboral el més fàcil possible.

Electronic Construction Collaboration - Phase 1, 2009

Bridge construction projects are becoming increasingly complex as the demand for context-sensitive solutions, aesthetic designs, and accelerated bridge construction becomes more prevalent. In addition, the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) is entering a phase of design and construction of large border bridges, such as the I-80 (let 2008 for $56 million) and US 34 bridges over the Missouri River and I-74 over the Mississippi River. Compared to typical construction projects, these bridges generate more contractor Requests for Information (RFIs), Value Engineering (VE) proposals, Requests for Changes (RFCs), and shop drawings. Management of these submittals is a significant challenge for Resident Construction Engineers (RCEs) and other Iowa DOT staff. In addition, some submittals require cross-departmental and project consultant reviews. Commercially available software exists for managing submittals and project collaboration teams; in-house solutions may also be possible. Implementation is intended to speed construction submittal review time, reduce incidence of delay claims, and free up Iowa DOT staff from project management administrative tasks. Researchers from Iowa State University working with the Iowa DOT conducted a multi-pronged approach to indentify a web-based collaboration solution for Iowa DOT bridge projects. An investigation was launched to determine the functional needs of the Iowa DOT. Commercially available software programs were also evaluated to find what functionality is currently available. A Request for Proposals (RFP) was written to select a commercial web-based collaboration solution for pilot testing. In the second phase of research, a solution will be selected and implemented on two pilot projects. Lessons learned from these pilot projects will assist the Iowa DOT in developing and implementing a long-term solution to improve the management of Iowa DOT bridge projects.

2016 Annual Report, Iowa Collaboration for Youth Development, February 1, 2016

The 2016 Annual Report includes our primary issue and goal, data that demonstrate the state’s current position, activities and accomplishments in the area of youth development completed by the ICYD Council in 2015; emerging activities being implemented in 2016; and recommended actions that will help Iowa achieve the ICYD goal – Increasing Iowa’s Graduation Rate to 95% by 2020. With the understanding that several issues (e.g. substance abuse, family, employment, teen pregnancy, and mental health) prevent many youth from graduating from high school, the ICYD Council agencies address these issues as individual agencies and work together as a team by making the best use of existing resources to maximize efficiency in state government in order to create substantial and lasting positive changes for Iowa’s youth.

A course on collaboration between social workers and general practitioners during their vocational training

The educational programme reported was an experiment in the vocational training scheme of the department of General Practice, Erasmus University, Rotterdam, Holland, and is now part of the course. The programme focused on the training in team function (co-operation) given to trainee GPs and social workers. It became clear that both groups during their professional training develop markedly different attitudes and views about patient (client) care. These differences form a fundamental handicap in any discussion about teamwork. During the programme the students were made aware of this divergence of viewpoint and were taught how to handle these resulting handicaps and, if possible, to eliminate them.

Médecine interne et gériatrie en soins aigus: mariage de raison [General internal medicine and geriatrics in the acute care setting: opportunities for collaboration]

The health care system faces a difficult challenge as a result of the demographic evolution. The acute hospital is especially challenged by the steady increase of the elderly population. The collaboration between internal medicine and geriatrics in this setting could prove useful to facilitate the adaptation of the acute care setting and greatly enhance education of the health care professionals. Internists and geriatricians can benefit from each other skills and competencies to develop together new models of acute care that would better match the elderly population needs.

Le projet PERMANENT.PLOT.CH demande votre collaboration

Un nouveau projet, baptisé PERMANENT.PLOT.CH, démarre cette année à l'Université de Lausanne. Le but est de répertorier tous les carrés permanents de végétation en Suisse et de les archiver dans une base de donnée informatique. Un appel est lancé à toute personne connaissant l'existence de carrés permanents de végétation, sur le terrain ou dans la litérature, de nous transmettre cette précieuse information.
