El Juego cooperativo como medio de fomento de valores en las clases de educación física en primaria en las escuelas profesionales sagrada familia

En el ámbito de la Educación Física y deportiva actual, el papel del juego como medio educativo ha obtenido un papel preponderante con las nuevas teorías constructivistas, por la significatividad de su aprendizaje. Poco a poco, ha ido elevándose al nivel de otros contenidos de uso tradicional – los deportes convencionales o el trabajo de las cualidades físicas - que de forma generalizada, han ocupado la totalidad de los espacios de planificaciones y unidades didácticas de los proyectos curriculares. De ahí su importancia actual en el área, no sólo como recurso o herramienta de trabajo, sino como contenido con un corpus conceptual amplio y con unas potencialidades psicopedagógicas profundamente demostradas. Así lo corroboran multitud de investigaciones sobre el juego infantil que ponen de manifiesto su vital importancia en el desarrollo global de los niños y de las niñas: intelectualmente, desarrollando pensamiento y capacidad creativa; sicomotrizmente, a través de un desarrollo perceptivo y coordinativo; socialmente, a través de interacciones comunicativas y cooperativas; emocionalmente, a través del cultivo del autoconcepto, el equilibrio y el control psico-afectivo (Garaigordobil, 2007)

Women's decisions about amniocentesis : new dilemmas, new fears

Explores how the development and availability of prenatal diagnostic testing creates dilemmas for pregnant women that previous generations of women never had to face. Examines the reasons for the women's decisions about amniocentesis in the context of their reproductive, personal and social circumstances. The thesis concludes that, regardless of whether the study participants had accepted or rejected the medical offer of prenatal diagnosis, it was shaped by their desire to gain a sense of control in reproduction.

The dehumanisation of the other

This dissertation utilises film and the ethical philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas to expose the dehumanising characteristics of genocide. Through four films across four different cases of genocide, the investigation reveals that defining genocide as mass murder alone limits the potential to understand the crime.

Investigation of mystery in ecological knowing

The focus of this thesis is the internal incoherence of contemporary western understandings of ecology. Ecology suggests that everything within our world is interrelated. As this includes the generation of human knowing, our knowing of ecology and the structure and functioning of the world is called into question. An argument is developed which considers ecological knowing as belief, and specifically as a type of religious belief.

Technogyny : the transformation of reproduction

Explores the major social and political consequences of new reproductive and genetic technologies. Increasingly the experience and process of reproduction is dominated by technology and medicine. Suggests an international institution such as the UN is likely to be the most effective in addressing the concerns associated with the technologies' adverse effects. Such intervention is unlikely without active and sophisticated lobbying from women around the world.

Tertiary education for social justice in an age of uncertainty

Same information, different behaviour

Over the last three decades the literature on ethical decision-making has burgeoned. Despite this, a number of recent corporate collapses have been attributed to unethical business practices. Through an online simulation study, the research found that an individual's cognitive predispositions, anxiety and moral identity are key contributors to unethical behaviour.

Understanding euthanasia debate : the Northern Territory experience in historical context

The thesis analyses the principles and philosophies behind the public submissions into the Northern Territory's Rights of the Terminally Ill Act [1995], which mirror wider debate over euthanasia since 1945. It argues that religious prohibitions against euthanasia have been largely replaced by slippery slope arguments that effectively obstruct law reform.

Industrial relations and catholic social doctrine

This paper reviews the key principles of Catholic Social thought as they pertain to relations between labour and capital. It is argued that such principles are foundational for the conduct of ethical relations and the exercise of moral values in the workplace, and are recognisable in the right of workers to employment and just compensation for their labours, in the duty of employers to provide safe and engaging work for those in their charge, and in the obligation of the state to dispense wise governance in a manner that guarantees the welfare and security of all its citizens. It is argued that these principles have had de facto airing in Australian political and economic history, and that they might be usefully drawn upon again to protect the rights of workers under the current ascendency of neo-liberal policy solutions.
