Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La construcción de una escuela intercultural, así como el desarrollo de marcos educativos inclusivos donde el alumnado de familia inmigrada sea considerado uno más, requiere no sólo medidas de naturaleza didáctica sino también organizativa. Por este motivo se hace necesario ir cubriendo, con aportaciones teóricas y prácticas, esta dimensión de gestión y liderazgo, menos abordada que la otra. Esta obra pretende contribuir a ir llenando este espacio. Ofrece básicamente tres tipos de contenidos: sustantivos, prácticos y operativos. Así, además de clarificar terminológica y conceptualmente el entorno de la interculturalidad y la inclusión, y explorarlo desde un posicionamiento teórico de carácter posmoderno, vincula dicha fundamentación teórica con los principios de praxis organizativa que debe asumir un centro educativo intercultural e inclusivo, haciendo referencia, además, a estrategias basadas en experiencias reales y proporcionando un modelo concreto de dinamización de un claustro a la hora de adentrarse en el complejo proceso de transformación hacia la educación intercultural y la inclusión.

This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comparative analysis of the intercultural theories and practices developed in the European context. Bringing together work on the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, The Netherlands and Sweden, it examines specific approaches to intercultural education. Structured around a series of core questions concerning the main features of diverse groups of migrants present within a country and within schools, the major issues raised by scientific research on the presence of migrant students, and the adoption of relevant educational policies and practices to address these issues - together with examples of best practice in each case - Intercultural Education in the European Context explores the strengths and weaknesses of the intercultural education approach adopted in each context. Offering a broad framework for the study of intercultural education as adopted in European settings, the book highlights the contribution of education to the development of a fair, democratic and pluralistic Europe. As such, it will appeal to scholars and policy makers in the field of sociology, migration, education and intercultural relations.

Book excerpt: Esta obra nace con una clara vocación de la transmisión de los resultados de la investigación especializada y de la generación de nuevas oportunidades para la innovación y compromiso con la diversidad cultural y, más concretamente, con la inclusión del alumnado inmigrante en los centros educativos. La labor continuada de los autores que participan en ella, como profesores universitarios e investigadores en educación intercultural e inclusión educativa, ha permitido generar un saber especializado en torno a una misma mirada. Esto es, la necesidad de disponer de nuevas claves para comprender las prácticas educativas en los centros multiculturales de educación y de contar con distintos recursos y aportaciones para seguir avanzando hacia la inclusión educativa. En ella se apuesta por subrayar las pequeñas acciones que cada miembro de la comunidad educativa, y especialmente el profesorado, puede hacer para marcar la diferencia. Por esta razón, la obra se dirige, fundamentalmente, a ellos. Se formula desde el punto de vista de los principales actores educativos: directores, orientadores, maestros, profesorado de español para inmigrantes, educadores sociales, formadores, familias, etc., abordando distintas temáticas clave. Entre ellas: liderazgo inclusivo; orientación intercultural, competencias docentes interculturales; enseñanza del español para alumnado inmigrante; mediación intercultural, etc. Cada una de esas temáticas está fundamentada en la investigación y se completa con una cuidada selección de informes, aportaciones legislativas, prácticas educativas y recursos que ayudan a llevar a la práctica el enfoque inclusivo. Se espera que este volumen contribuya a evidenciar, desde el diálogo de la investigación y las buenas prácticas implementadas, las opciones que tienen los docentes, educadores e investigadores para contribuir, cada uno desde su particular ámbito de intervención, al desarrollo de una escuela intercultural e inclusiva.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro aborda una educación intercultural progresista y crítica que no está en contra de la eficacia ni de la excelencia, pero que no quiere conseguirlas a costa de cualquier consecuencia negativa en la formación integral del alumno como ciudadano democrático y comunitario. Propone una educación intercultural como renovación cultural, como perspectiva de un nuevo humanismo, pero sobre todo como un esperanzador camino hacia la inclusión; más aún en estos momentos en los que, siendo verdad que la interculturalidad representa un cambio positivo y una riqueza para todos, la experiencia cotidiana se resiste a dar cabida a grupos minoritarios que son víctimas de prejuicios, racismo, intolerancia y otros ataques contra la dignidad humana. En el núcleo del libro se plantea que hablar de la construcción de comunidades interculturales sin tener en cuenta la práctica democrática y la participación ciudadana es un grave error. Para evitarlo, la colaboración entre la comunidad y los centros educativos es fundamental.

This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las actuales instituciones educativas serán inclusivas e interculturales en la medida que acepten y se enriquezcan con la interculturalidad como construcción educativa cooperativa dirigida fundamentalmente a mejorar la convivencia escolar y para hacer más humanas las relaciones de los distintos miembros de la comunidad educativa. Ahora bien, el reto es complejo, y en la actualidad la interculturalidad se encuentra entre el deseo de ser una propuesta educativa reflexiva, y la realidad de encontrarse en una encrucijada de caminos que van desde la exaltación folclórica de las culturas del alumnado inmigrante al enfoque de la compensación educativa. Este libro va en la línea de construir una educación intercultural inclusiva donde resulta ineludible considerar que la formación del profesorado en educación intercultural es básica para llevar a buen término los objetivos propuestos por la misma. Esta formación no solo puede ir exclusivamente dirigida al colectivo docente, sino a toda la comunidad educativa, y es que todos somos piezas claves y singulares para avanzar hacia la interculturalidad. Esta formación tiene que estar ajustada y contextualizada a la realidad profesional que los docentes viven cada día en sus aulas y escuelas. El profesorado de hoy no valora positivamente los conocimientos teóricos sobre la interculturalidad de manera aislada, sino que estos conocimientos de formación intercultural deben estar vinculados y relacionados dentro de una metodología participativa donde juegue un papel clave la simulación y la formación práctica con estudios de casos particulares de conflictos o de situaciones de interculturalidad en la convivencia. Y es que, si pretendemos construir aulas y escuelas interculturales, porque creemos que es en sí mismo un propósito ineludible al que debe responder hoy en día la vida de todos los centros educativos, es imprescindible asumir la diversidad como algo positivo y enriquecedor para la propia convivencia social y educativa. Y es que, en definitiva, la diversidad es lo común y lo común es la diversidad y, aplicado a la educación, esto nos lleva a indagar más si cabe en la riqueza de la humanidad y en el necesario desarrollo de las iniciativas y acciones educativas interculturales. Dirigido especialmente al alumnado universitario de los nuevos Grados de Educación Primaria y Educación Infantil, Pedagogía y Educación Social, este trabajo pretende servir de texto de análisis y reflexión pedagógica para promover la comprensión de todas aquellas claves que permitan reconocer y aceptar la diversidad cultural de la escuela del siglo XXI, y defender la educación intercultural como una propuesta teórica y práctica que, caminando “desde el deseo a la realidad”, implique cambios en la escuela, tanto curriculares como metodológicos y en la formación del profesorado. Así mismo, también resultará interesante para aquellos profesionales de la educación (profesorado de infantil y primaria, secundaria, orientadores) en activo interesados en el análisis y las propuestas educativas orientadas a la situación de convivencia que viven los centros escolares que están afrontando el reto de construir la interculturalidad día a día en sus aulas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `The Third Edition of an excellent book and is usefully updated to include the greater significance of the global contest of management, and in particular Tony Bush has consciously updated reference material. This, like all Tony Bush′s work, is an essential reading for students following higher degree courses in the area of management studies in education, and increasingly those social policy students on higher degrees with an education option′ - John L Doyle, The International Journal of Educational Management In summary, this book makes an excellent contribution to the current debate on Management and Leadership from a theoretical point of view. It provides an important resource for many aspects of management and leadership development programmes at a variety of levels. Its ability to draw upon international perspectives along with examples beyond conventional educational parameters enhances its quality. The book contains a well documented account of how leadership has been studied which will appeal both to the academic reader, and to the professional provider of CPD in leadership, offering a wealth of information that can be practically adopted and adapted for a range of courses′ - British Journal In-Service Education In this established bestselling text (previous title Theories of Educational Management), Tony Bush presents the major theories of educational management and links them to contemporary policy and practice. This fully revised Third Edition includes two important changes in content. First, the book takes account of the increasing interest in the concept of leadership. Leadership continues to be one of the major criteria used to differentiate the models but there are now explicit links between educational management theories and the main models of leadership. The second change is that, in this edition, the author applies the models to a range of international contexts, including both developed and developing countries. This change relates to global interest in concepts of leadership and management and to an increasing recognition of the need to customize theory and practice to each context and culture rather that adopting a `one size fits all′ approach. This text is essential reading for students of educational leadership and management as well as for headteachers and managers in education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just when you think you′ve read all about managing diversity and you′ve concluded that there is nothing new to say, Patricia Arredondo′s book offers a fresh, insightful, and helpful blueprint for beginning and moving forward with a diversity initiative. Successful Diversity Management Initiatives not only outlines specific steps for a managing diversity process but also discusses the rationale for procedures, identifies potential roadblocks, and explores how barriers could be managed. Patricia Arredondo gives specific examples based on her research and her experiences within organizations so that the reader obtains an integrative and systematic perspective about the issues involved. Reading this book is essential for all management educators, organizational change teams, and consultants in the field interested in getting up-to-speed about the issues. Also, managers and executives who are engaged in gaining competitive advantage through the talents and abilities of the changing workforce and knowing about the needs of their diverse customers, will gain insight into the very real factors affecting their organizations. --Anna Duran, Ph.D, Principal, Anna Duran & Associates & Adjunct Professor, Graduate School of Business, Columbia University "In this book Dr. Patricia Arredondo really captures the kind of experiences we have had as to what works and what doesn′t in shaping a diversity initiative. Her concrete suggestions provide a very useful road map leading to a successful diversity initiative." --William Watkins Jr., Executive Vice President, and Director of Economic Development, Narragansett Electric Thousands of organizations are beginning to address the issue of workforce diversity management. This important new book helps answer questions typically raised by these organizations as they face diversity-related change. Why should we do this? How will we know we are being successful? What kind of change can we expect? Successful Diversity Management Initiatives presents specific phases and steps to help plan, direct, and manage strategic organizational development. Serving as a developmental model for change, this model emphasizes on-going evaluation and clarification during each phase and proposes a prototype for measuring both qualitative and quantitative results. Vignettes based on organizational experiences are used to demonstrate how particular steps in the model occur and how they hold generic value. Intended for practical application, the book is supported by case examples, summaries at the end of each chapter that include a checklist for organizational self-assessment, models, and a glossary. Successful Diversity Management Initiatives is appropriate for professionals who have responsibility for designing and implementing programs as well as graduate students in organizational development, industrial psychology, and human resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume captures the innovative, theory-based, and grounded work being done by established scholars who are interrogating how teacher education can prepare teachers to work in challenging and diverse high-poverty settings. It offers articles from the US, Australia, Canada, the UK and Chile by some of the most significant scholars in the field. Internationally, research suggests that effective teachers for high poverty schools require deep theoretical understanding as well as the capacity to function across three well-substantiated areas: deep content knowledge, well-tuned pedagogical skills, and demonstrated attributes that prove their understanding and commitment to social justice. Schools in low socioeconomic communities need quality teachers most, however, they are often staffed by the least experienced and least prepared teachers. The chapters in this volume examine how pre-service teachers are taught to understand the social contexts of education. Drawing on the individual expertise of the authors, the topics covered include unpacking poverty for pre-service teachers, issues related to urban schooling as well as remote and regional area schooling.
