Book Synopsis Los problemas de la geografía escolar y la pandemia by : Benito Campo País
Download or read book Los problemas de la geografía escolar y la pandemia written by Benito Campo País and published by Nau Llibres. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pandemia ha cambiado nuestras vidas, pero nos ofrece la oportunidad de modificar las rutinas de enseñanza para mejorar la educación ciudadana desde la geografía e historia. Nuestra vinculación como docentes en la formación del profesorado y en el Geoforo Iberoamericano nos hace reforzar la didáctica como instrumento válido para producir el conocimiento y las habilidades básicas para los futuros docentes interesados en la geografía escolar de Iberoamérica. Así, la enseñanza geográfica necesita una práctica para desmembrar las noticias, comprobarlas, contrastarlas y entender su significado en el espacio territorial local y global; es decir, identificar y ponderar la relevancia y trascendencia de los hechos que se producen. Este libro responde al convencimiento que sus autores confieren a las tareas realizadas por el alumnado en general y los estudiantes de la formación del profesorado en particular. Se trata de “poner los tubos de neón” sobre quienes son uno de los ejes centrales del futuro de la educación, que por el desarrollo de su función docente serán los constructores no solo del futuro escolar sino del social y ciudadano.
