In this article we study the particularities of editorial practice in contexts of confinement in Argentina through the systematization and analysis of five publications, already published or in the process of being published, which were formulated within the framework of pedagogical-political practices carried on by the Prisons Extension Program of the Philosophy and Literature Faculty of the University of Buenos Aires. These five cases will be addressed in order to observe what meanings guide the editorial processes through the marks imprinted on them by the specificity of the writing that summons them and the territory to which they belong. Publishing in the context of a pedagogical project developed by the university configures collective territories where writing and publications can display and carry plural voices, which are strengthened in that plurality forged in the heat of individual and collective subjectivation processes made possible by education and writing. Editorial practice is inseparably intertwined with actions aimed at defending rights, narrating lived experiences and building a collective history which are part of the desires and expectations regarding publication.

The United Nations claims that education is a crucial element in reducing poverty rates in any country if it is accessible, adaptable, acceptable, and affordable; known as the 4A's of education, which are considered within the national education policy. This paper analyzes the effect of the 4A's of education on multidimensional moderate-income poverty and extreme income poverty in Mexico in the years 2010 and 2020. This is achieved with the analysis of microdata from the Module of Socioeconomic Conditions of the National Survey of Household Income and Expenditure (MCS - ENIGH) 2010 and 2020 and with dichotomous logit models. The results indicate that the 4A's have a greater effect on the reduction of multidimensional extreme income poverty than on moderate, even over different periods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

According to Diogenes Laertius, Hipparchia of Maroneia decided to use for her education the time she was going to waste on the loom (VI98=SSR V I 1). The aim of this paper is to analyze the reason and implications of this decision. I will point out that it is based on the gender equality thesis supported by the Cynics, and I will try to show that it has at least two implications: not only the defense of a certain kind of education, but also of parrhesia, i.e. the practice of free, frank, and open discourse.

This paper presents the results of a research work focused on identifying educational improvements needs in the field of digital teaching skills (DTS) in higher education, specifically in a Teacher Training College. There are several frameworks to assess this, however, this research focused on those related to the competence: communication and collaboration described in the Marco Común de Competencias Digitales Docentes (MCCDD) (INTEF, 2017). The pandemic evidenced as an emerging requirement in terms of the DTS also national and international foundations in which it is highlighted how these are essential to support lifelong learning and to inclusion. Ten teachers from Veracruz participated in the study through the focus group technique, which made it possible to recover information to learn about their perspectives on the training needs they identified in the area of the DTS, both in themselves and in the degree program in education in which they teach. The MAXQDA program was used to analyze the information and graphs were created with the segments of their oral participations. The results are shown in Unique-Code Model (summaries) of each skill in the area of communication and collaboration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the experiences of participation in the strike carried out by students of Unit 071 of the National Pedagogical University of Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas, Mexico. From a reflective approach, the historical memory of the process is recovered from documentary analysis, records of assemblies and marches, as well interviews with students and leaders of the movement. The information was grouped into two blocks: From the pandemic to the student strike. Subjectivation and existential plot; in which the vicissitudes of organization and actions carried out are exposed; and, The word must be worth, which discusses the network of actions, synergies, meetings and disagreements between students to undertake negotiations with educational and governmental authorities. The confluence of other social movements, the mobilization and taking of the streets, contributed to the strike's resolution, which inaugurated an unprecedented experience of struggle and resistance for these students.

This paper will develop what is understood by the right to education and how it is specifically regulated in the contexts of confinement, taking into account how the educational stimulus regulated in article 140 of Law 24.660 operates and its importance in the process of social reintegration of inmates. A comparison will be made between what is sanctioned by the National Education Law and the international human rights instruments with constitutional hierarchy that support this right and what actually happens in the penitentiary system. Likewise, an analysis will be made of Argentine jurisprudence that recognizes the right to education of persons deprived of liberty and its importance for the system of progressiveness regulated by the law of penal execution. On the other hand, an analysis will be made of how, in practice, the reduction regulated by article 140 has lost its virtuality due to the introduction of a group of offenses that are not eligible for the liberatory institutes through Law 27.375. The main objective lies in the need to emphasize that education in prison contexts is essential for social reintegration and that the State has the obligation to guarantee this right.

The present paper wants to share the project called "Participative Community methodologists in ludoteca felt and thought from education". It stared in 2022. The idea is part of a process in the subject Community and Institutional Psychology, that belongs to the career of University technicality in Social Education of the Faculty of Education of the National University of Cuyo. This process began 5 year ago and aims deepening and building bridges of knowledge and meanings between Social Education and Community Psychology. Furthermore, this experience is part of the Educational Social Practices Program (PSE) belonging to the Secretariat of Extension and Linkage of the UNCuyo. This project sought to ensure that students who were studying the university subjectof Community and Institutional Psychology, of the FED - UNCuyo, applied participatory community methodologies. They recived the tutoring of advanced students and graduates of the carrear and teachers. The project was carried out in a place called "ludoteca" in the "Nucleus of Innovation and Development of Opportunities" (NIDO). In addition, the specific objectives were: 1- Carry out methodologies that promote understanding of the socio-historical context; 2- Analyze current problems and needs that afflict the child population; 3- Understand the population dynamics involved and 4- Maintain, through play, a healthy space that favors the construction of strategies to address the problems of daily life. The starting point was theoretical references that put in a constant dialogue between community psychology and social education knowledges in latin America. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This monograph on "New Trends in Emotional Intelligence" has been organized to appear in two volumes of Psychological Writings corresponding to 2022 and 2023. In this volume of 2023, seven articles are published, including three systematic reviews, one theoretical paper, and three empirical articles. The first systematic review analyzes publications on Emotional Intelligence (EI) in Argentina over the last ten years; the second examines the relationship between EI and well-being in adolescents; and the third conducts a review on borderline personality disorder and histrionic personality disorder from dimensional models and the emotional regulation strategies employed by individuals who suffer from these disorders. The fourth article provides a theoretical reflection on the relevance of EI and emotional regulation as transdiagnostic factors in emotional problems, anxiety disorders, and depression. The fifth paper investigates the effectiveness of an EI leadership course in developing leadership competencies in future school leaders. The sixth article studies the relationship between EI, social competencies, and academic performance from a new, person-centered approach. Finally, the seventh research study presents the validation of a new test to evaluate EI in children and adolescents: EmocioCine. The articles in this monograph will facilitate for us, as researchers and those interested in studying emotions, our identification of new trends in EI research and our advancement of its conceptualization, measurement, and training from various disciplines and perspectives.

In this paper, we describe the elements that characterize the teaching of Mathematics in the Ave María Schools, founded and run by Andrés Manjón in Granada between 1889 and 1923. He stood up for a peculiar model of integrated education, based on Christian values, and he also developed his own methodological principles, similar in many ways to those of the emerging École Nouvelle. The selection and analysis of several sources has allowed us to set his teaching of Mathematics within this pedagogical framework and has suggested us the idea that the strategies used by Manjón in order to teach Arithmetic and Geometry could be innovative at that time and, perhaps, valuable from the point of view of contemporary Didactics.

This work proposes to research the meanings constructed by prison authorities about the socio-educational practices implemented by institutions, organizations, and heterogeneous actors in contexts of punitive confinement, and their relationship with the construction of the prison order. Institutionalized and formalized spaces such as primary and secondary education, experiences organized by university actors, and "non-formal" educational practices, compose the contemporary educational-prison framework. The central hypothesis is that the definitions of prison managers, introducing differentiations, hierarchies and evaluations, manage to enroll educational practices as substantial devices for the construction and legitimization of the prison order. Legitimation process that gain a weak character, given by three interrelated dimensions: degrees of institutionalization, statehood and criticality that the authorities recognize in the educational actors involved. Starting from an interpretative paradigm, this paper will focus its empirical references on observations and in-depth interviews with directors of three prisons, two for men (one medium security and the other maximum security) and one for women, but it falls within the partial results of a research project carried out during the period 2018-2022, in five prisons in the south of the province of Santa Fe (Argentina).

On other occasions we have reported the partial results of the archaeological research at the site El Divisadero (Cafayate, Salta). The purpose of this paper is to present the analysis of the archaeological collection of San Agustín School located in the mentioned site. This proposal was framed within the Open Science movement and the record of the collection is already available for the local community and for those interested in the past of the native populations of Cafayate. The project included dialogue spaces with the educational community, registering the collection and integrating it with the results of archaeological investigations. The study of the collection allowed us to advance in the interpretations about the functionality of the site, to make temporal approximations of the pre-Hispanic occupations and to contextualize the archaeological objects in local history.

This paper analyzes the development of Latin America over the past three decades by using growth incidence curves and weighted growth rates calculated on the basis of harmonized microdata from national household surveys. Over the past three decades, Latin America has made progress in fundamental socioeconomic indicators. On average, there has been significant growth in income as well as some educational and housing variables, particularly among the lower income strata. In contrast, progress was slower among the most vulnerable population in other important areas (e.g., higher education, female labor participation). Despite notable improvements in various areas of development captured through household surveys, the evidence reveals that substantial shortfalls and disparities still persist.

The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between riddles, education, and philosophy that Clearchus of Soli proposes in fr. 63W. I begin by analyzing the definition of "riddle" given in fr. 86W. I will argue in favor of the following claims: (1) a riddle (grîphos) is different from an enigma (aínigma); (2) a riddle is similar, in a certain way, to a dialectical problem; (3) there is a relationship between riddle and aporia. Then, taking the examples of riddles transmitted in the fragments of the treatise On Riddles into account, I will try to explain what the exact relationship between riddle, education, and philosophy could be.

This paper aims the meanings of cultural diversity, multiculturalism and interculturality, interconnecting them to the educational act. In this way, it is based on the premise that diversity is something inherent to the human being, exhibits the peculiar qualities of the inhabitants of certain geographical locations and the traits that make their culture unique. Within this universe, multiculturalism is defined as the recognition of the existence of diversity, of conditions of respect and tolerance to coexist within society, but maintaining a hegemonic logos that conditions social practices, adapting to global interests that pose the diversity and inclusion, masking the Western hegemonic status. From this, the urgency of entering intercultural issues, in dialogue between cultures, is assumed, but the paradigmatic approaches of Bilingual Intercultural Education have failed to transcend the limitations of multiculturalism. Interculturality, therefore, has to be connected to decolonizing proposals, to the transformation of reality, acquiring a genuine meaning in another pedagogical praxis, as another epistemic and political project, with the possibility of creating different imaginaries, where permanent processes take place. of changes, development and space for the integration of alternative identities.

This paper studies the effect of transfers from the General Participations System (SGP) on Colombian municipal development indicators during 2003-2017. A Municipal Development Index is proposed, considering indicators of educational achievement, health coverage, and crime rates. This index is studied in the municipal context using spatial autocorrelation techniques. A panel-type econometric model was estimated to evaluate the effect of transfers on the index. The results suggest that increases in education, health, culture, and recreation transfers generate positive, differential effects on the index. Transfers to the health sector have the most significant impact on the index. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the context of the enactment of Law nr. 1014 of 2006 and the implementation of the Chair of Entrepreneurship in 19 Secondary and Middle School Educational Institutions (respectively equivalents to USA Middle and High Schools) in Popayán (Cauca, Colombia). As a main methodological instrument, we used an open-ended questionnaire to obtain information from the teaching staff responsible for the Chair. The discussion of the empirical data used a mixed approach. The first phase supported the quantitative analysis to estimate the answers obtained. A second moment emphasized the qualitative approach, seeking dialogue between empirical data, reference literature, and documentary sources. The results highlight the prioritization of the entrepreneurial (instrumental and economic) conception of entrepreneurship and, to a lesser extent, differentiated curricular practices from that hegemonic vision. We concluded that the perspective of the Chair of Entrepreneurship, imposed by Law, influenced the pedagogicalconceptual improvisation derived from the municipal marginalization of political decision-making at the national level.

This paper presents the transformations that the economic strategies of the Guaraní people of the province of Misiones have undergone in different historical periods. For this we start from the application of the anthropological perspective anchored in the ethnographic method. We will first make a descriptive presentation of three moments that we consider key to understanding the current inter-ethnic structure of the province of Misiones. Until such time as formal education appears as a new tool of society in general, with the potential to become a new strategy of ethnic resistance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The current context involves a generally increasing access of technologies and information, which has a strong impact on the classroom. Students are passive and reluctant to the traditional teaching model. Thus, innovations take center stage, such is the case of the Flipped Classroom (FC) model. The aim of this paper is to describe the application of FC in the teaching of human anatomy in a university environment. Four sessions of the General Anatomy program were intervened with a group of 41 students. The content was approached in 3 stages: pre-class, class and post-class, using multimedia resources and platforms such as Moodle and YouTube. The activities included virtual lessons, group work and minimalist quizzes. At the end of the semester a student perception survey was applied. Achievement percentage in preclass were 40.45 %, 55.46 %, 43.75 % and 76.04 % for sessions 01 to 04. The grades for class group work were 5.8±0.34, 6.1±0.46, 6.0±0.78 and 6.7±0.38 for the sessions worked. In the survey 63.2 % and 76.3 % of the students stated that they "very satisfied" that FC enhances autonomous and collaborative work, respectively. 73.6 % preferred the FC model over the traditional one. The FC model has shown to promote a better evolution of the teaching-learning process, being adaptable to basic science disciplines such as human anatomy. A positive experience of this innovation must be supported by well-structured programming, support inside and outside the classroom, and the adjustment of successful strategies. There is an imminent need to adapt to the new context where access to technologies and information is a priority. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Moral pride is an emotion that plays an important role in the moral sphere, but has received very little attention to date. This paper reviews five studies on this emotion, with important educational implications. The first two studies focus on the motivational benefits of moral pride, while the other three analyze certain elements that may undermine it. Following the review, the paper reflects on the educational implications of the studies analyzed, highlighting both the importance of stimulating the development of this emotion in moral education, and the need to prepare children to overcome those factors which work against it. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of helping children learn to withstand the (often negative) influence of their peer group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Educators are one of the occupational groups most at risk of work stress and professional burnout. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to review studies on the triggers and facilitators of burnout syndrome in teachers. Method: an exploratory systematic review was conducted including material in English and Spanish, published between 1992 and 2022. More precisely, 27 empirical works that analyzed triggers of burnout syndrome in teachers were selected. In addition, 5 articles and books that addressed aspects related to the facilitators of the syndrome were included. Then the triggers for professional burnout were systematized and classified according to Peiró's taxonomy (40). Finally, the facilitators were grouped into three specific categories. Results: the burnout triggers were: work environment, work overload, role conflict and role ambiguity, interpersonal relationships, professional career development, use of communication and information technologies and organisational structure. The facilitators reported were: socio-demographic characteristics, personality characteristics and coping style. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Man has been placed in the sphere of the human being as a unity of body and soul of which the integrality subject to time and space is predicated, differentiated from others by being endowed with conscience, freedom, temperament, and character, so that the latter can be molded through education, the desire for change and the repetition of an action. Objective: to examine governmental educational policies in the difficult task of being. Methods and materials: the type of research developed corresponds to documentary research, which supports the research study; a systematized tool was used that includes information from authors and their publications, relevant to this research. Results: secondary or university education acquired formally or informally has a specific purpose in each country and government. Therefore, it is necessary to focus and center the human being as an object and instrument in education. Discussion: to restate the central point of this paper, aimed at defining how to direct education in the post-agreement, and after taking being as a premise, rather than knowing and having. Conclusions: according to the analysis made, man is multidimensional, therefore, it is difficult to find an educational system that fully meets the expectations of this integral function; therefore, the educational model should be a tailor-made school, as defined by Edouard Clepèrede in his theory of functional pedagogy, in other words: tailor-made for the user. From the perspective of capitalism, it is considered that the knowledge acquired should not only be theory, but should alternate with practice. With regard to competencies, further work should be done on educational models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to explore the experience of teaching the "phonetic pause" during the courses Lectura y escritura I y II, in uam Azcapotzalco, Mexico. It was essential to explain the basics of the "phonetic pause" for better reading aloud, individual reading, and writing. Once these principles were explained, the students saw and heard them in the voices of various writers, and then put them into practice, all of those through videoconference. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is product of a hermeneutic-documentary exploration, which aims to specify the work of the university and university teaching in the current context. To achieve this end, the historical-conceptual origins of the university are indicated, marked by ecclesiastical influences, but which, with their development, gave space to increasingly broader knowledge, gaining the legitimacy of society, manifesting an autonomous structure, independent of the power of the State, the church and private enterprise. However, in recent times, the constraints of global society have distanced the university from its relationship with the community, locating it in utilitarian dimensions, for which it is required to rescue its primary sense, of a university focused on the progress of science and in the resolution of social conflicts. However, this is only possible to achieve with effective university teaching, challenging, promoting critical thinking, democratic and committed to citizen education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There is an increasing interest and growing practice in Citizen Science (CS) that goes along with the usage of websites for communication as well as for capturing and processing data and materials. From an educational perspective, it is expected that by integrating information about CS in a formal educational setting, it will inspire teachers to create learning activities. This is an interesting case for using bots to automate the process of data extraction from online CS platforms to better understand its use in educational contexts. Although this information is publicly available, it has to follow GDPR rules. This paper aims to explain (1) how CS communicates and is promoted on websites, (2) how web scraping methods and anonymization techniques have been designed, developed and applied to collect information from online sources and (3) how these data could be used for educational purposes. After the analysis of 72 websites, some of the results obtained show that only 24.8% includes detailed information about the CS project and 48.61% includes information about educational purposes or materials.

This paper exposes a theoretical approach proposal for the analysis of social inequalities through the notions of socialization and subjective experience, from a comprehensive sociology and Schutz's phenomenological perspective. The intention is to emphasize the subjective dimension in the phenomenon of inequality, which refers to the naturalization that occurs through the mental categories that we use to look at and build the social world, and that results in an aspect that strongly adds to structural conditioning of this problem. In particular, it is proposed to study this phenomenon in the context of high school, since it represents a particular period of life in which teenagers appropriate identity categories and in relation to the social order in which they operate. The results, from this approach, propose to rescue the role of the educational institution in the subjective incorporation of this problem, and, with it, address school practices and their objective effects on the lives of students.

This paper brings together studies on the future and design methodologies to develop a novel proposal for prospective analysis in the field of education. We apply mixed research methods in combination with design methodologies to open up new routes for studying the evolution, impact and behaviour of trends in future scenarios. Our research is based on an analysis of qualitative data from secondary sources and interviews with experts, which we transform into quantitative data using fuzzy logic models applied to uncontrolled Internet data environments. Our goal is to verify the validity of the DEFLEXOR method, which addresses the need to identify educational opportunities based on future scenarios defined using megatrends detected in various fields. Our conclusions highlight that combining qualitative and quantitative approaches with the methodological principles of design thinking, together with automated calculations arising from creative reflection by experts, constitutes a powerful methodology for developing specific prospective studies.

This paper aims to analyze academic production on the family-school relationship from research in Spanish during the last decade (2008-2018). A total of 564 papers indexed in the Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), and SciELO databases were analyzed. To do this, the descriptive bibliometric method was used to analyze the academic production and characterize the research dynamics of these studies, through an analysis of academic social networks. The VOSviewer 16.1 software was used to design bibliometric maps based on text and bibliographic data. The results show that academic production does not present clear growth; on the contrary, there are fluctuations due to increases and decreases in publications. Also observed are niches of work formed through small academic communities of a closed nature. The greatest impact of academic production in terms of citations is to be found in the Scopus and WoS databases. On the other hand, the content analysis of the 12 most cited papers shows high heterogeneity regarding the themes around which the family-school studies are articulated. Given these results, it is reasonable to consider that more scientific production in Spanish is needed in this field to provide evidence to consolidate the approach to and discussion of the family-school relationship.

The purpose of this paper has been to develop a valid and reliable tool to estimate the proportion of students who claim to use metacognitive strategies when solving math problems. A large group of reports was investigated that used questionnaires to research different aspects of metacognition and their analysis allowed us to create the CEMRPM questionnaire with 20 assessment items on the Likert scale, easy and agile to apply to detect students' perceptions about the use of metacognitive strategies. Statistical data analysis verified the validity and reliability of the said questionnaire. The construct was defined by establishing three dimensions: Planning, Regulation, and Evaluation; in line with the literature. Once the instrument was applied, it was verified that most of the students had used some metacognitive strategy in the process of Problem-Solving in math; In addition, it was evidenced that there is not a notable difference between the average assessment, the dimensions, and the correlation they keep up is direct, the strongest being identified between the Regulation-Planning and Regulation-Evaluation dimensions; in agreement with authors who support the construction of the questionnaire.

This paper is part of the international EduCovid19 project that seeks to describe teachers' perceptions of the impact of COVID-19 on their practices, as well as those of their students. In this context, this text focuses on making comparisons of teachers' perceptions on different variables and projecting their consequences on their teaching careers. A sample (N=541) of Chilean and Peruvian teachers of all educational levels participated in the study through a virtual structured questionnaire. The results show inequalities in the teaching practices of both countries based on significant differences linked to gender inequality, socioeconomic gaps, and the academic degree of the educators.

This paper presents the results of a study aimed at identifying good practices in different systems of Vocational Education and Training (VET) around the world and in some regions of Mexico, with the purpose of designing a new vocational model for the state of Guanajuato, integrating the educational and employability dimensions, and considering the new trends in vocational systems, that have evolved from an exclusive action of educational centers, towards a new conception that integrates strategic actions carried out collaboratively by educational, governmental, social and economic actors in the region. This is a research project where a documentary analysis methodology is applied, exploring different sources and references of vocation systems that have been implemented by different countries and in other states of the Mexican Republic, to make the proposal of a new vocation model, which is the theoretical-practical reference to coordinate the actions of different actors in the region, which facilitates adequate decision-making by Guanajuato students about the continuation of their educational preparation at the high school and college levels, in addition to the best option for employment. The resulting model integrates two major conceptual axes and four subcategories in each axis, so that it is the initial input for the design of state public policies, as well as the formation of strategies in the educational, social and economic sectors of the state of Guanajuato.

This paper aims to analyze the current theories of emotions by Agnes Heller, Martha Nussbaum and Peter Hacker and the arguments they propose to rehabilitate emotions within the moral and political field. The analysis consists of four moments: first, analyses the arguments that the three philosophers propose to support the idea that emotions are important to survival and development of human life. Second, it explains what the authors mean by defining emotions as cognitive phenomena. Third, it shows the incidence of society and culture in learning and in the experience of emotions. Based on the previous clarifications, the fourth section explains more clearly the interweaving between emotions, morals and politics. The main conclusions are that despite the conceptual and methodological differences between the three philosophers, their work allows to draw coincidences and complements that give solid support to the thesis that emotions are essential for human life and its moral and political behavior. It also concludes that the results of this dialogue are a conceptual framework that can guide more specific work on the relationship of the affective world and the social and political world.

The purpose of this paper is to show that the Sophist dialogue can be read as a not-allegorical recreation of the cave's image found in Republic VII. Through a parallel reading of both texts, we will try to prove that this late work systematically recreates not only the successive phases of the said Socratic image, but also parts of its vocabulary, its ontological classifications, its pedagogical interests and even its practical and political commitments. This reading will lead us both to clarify some unclear senses of an image such as the Allegory's (that, being an outline, leaves much unsaid) and to read the Sophist dialogue, whose unity has been questioned, as a whole, while evidencing some dimensions of the dialogue overlooked by the interpreters.

The advent of the 21st century, the human being has seen before him the challenge of adopting more realistic positions to preserve his own existence and that of nature, this means that knowledge, science and technology are today at the top of the scale of knowledge and intelligence. The real and objective implementation of all the legislation that makes it possible to achieve sustainability in development on a global scale and above all to guarantee the environmental education of current and future generations, then, and within the framework of this study, poses a new challenge. This paper aims to make an approach to environmental education from philosophy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

From the ending of the XVIII century, there are in Cuba a distinguished group of People with a great monetary power and interested in culture. Colonial authorities don't feel safe with this people who has something in common: they are afro-descendant. This s the main argument for create a politic oppression designed for destroy this economic elite. This was created against the colonial system and they were involved in polemic actions like La Escalera Conspiracy in 1844. But colonial authorities just can pull down their economic power, not their ideas. With this paper, from the view of the oppression against black people, we want to give light about the resistance and the educational level that black Cubans reach in the most significant time within the process of creation of the whole Cuban identity between 1844 and 1898.

Education is an essential pillar for the economic growth and the development of the countries. The sanitary and economic crisis has had devastating effects in the entire world in the well-being of the children. The commitment of all the actors is required to be able to fully guarantee the rights of the children, to mitigate the collateral effects in them, especially of the most vulnerable ones, besides to prioritize and to solve the problems of connectivity, the lack of technological tools, the school desertion, which are the inconveniences that persist in this new school period 2020-2021 and that have left a debit and a decreasing in the quality in the education, that has being accentuated in the poor sectors and in the rural areas. This paper aims to determine the factors that influence negatively in education that needs of the use of technologies in this pandemic context in the Ecuadorian educational system. For this, we summoned a group of nine experts and their opinions were processed by means of the Delphi method. The gathered knowledge was represented by means of conceptual maps for its popularization among the education workers around all the country. There were problems like lack of equity, intrafamiliar violence, among others that affect the efficacy in education for children and teenagers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The recurrent changes that we are experiencing nowadays indicates that we are immerse in the XXI century, which means that we are facing a globalized society that requires an ethical, critical and aware individual capable to face the different problems that afflict their communities or country of residence. That is why talking about linking ethical values with university responsibility is necessary, considering that the vast Latin America must educate, not only and individual trained to carry out and activity in a certain discipline of knowledge, but also that he is responsible professional with the institution that formed him, as well as with the environmental, ecological, moral and social elements. This paper aims to describe the different definitions of University Social Responsibility (RSU) talking into account characteristics such as: 1.- Impact of this in the Globalized Society 2.-Emergence of the RSU concept, based on the laws that gave rise to it, 3.- Differences between Corporate Social Responsibility (RSE) and University Social Responsibility, 4.-Ethical values and their involvement with University Social Responsibility [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper explores the fundamental axes that currently converge for the needs of nature and humanity. The philosophical statements contained in this reflection become valid when it comes to articulating ethical codes with the advancement of science and, at the same time, educating through an axiological system that leads to sustainable human development. In this order of ideas, it is pointed out how Western progress has led to catastrophic events for life on the planet, coupled with the excessive use of science, without any ethical criteria to regulate their actions. However, as a result of the moral reflection of recent times, of the voices of various social groups, scientific improvements have been questioned and directed towards the production of knowledge that allows human activity to be deployed positively on nature and on society, taking into account that, to make this possible, it is necessary to combine ethics, science and education, to walk towards progress in terms of sustainability.

This paper shows how Millán-Puelles considers man as a creature with a nature –a principle of operations which is determined but not fi xed– that is endowed with the possibility of perfection. On this basis, the human being can advance on the path of plenitude through the use of freedom in accordance with truth. This is the educational process in which freedom bridges the gap between indigence of nature and its perfection. It is to educate by leading the human being to plenitude, allowing them to grow in good and complete their being. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the current cultural and technological context, disciplines and academic education face new challenges related to teaching and learning practices, due to the fact that technological mediations, advanced supports and archives have transformed these processes. In this paper we explore the alternatives that transmedia narratives offer for the Humanities, in particular, for Literature and Philosophy. We emphasize the need to incorporate other supports and other narratives in the work of these areas, including and taking advantage of technological mediations. Therefore, instead of having gaps between education and technology, we identify the challenges caused by the transformation of actors, roles and training processes, as well as the emergence of "informal" methodologies and platforms. To this end, we begin with the conceptual characterization of the technologically mediated environment that university education is increasingly facing. Secondly, we identified some contemporary literary practices and we make a historical account of some Latin American works that can be analyzed from the category of Transmedia Literature. Finally, will be problematized the written and visual registers that are transformed and conditioned by information flows on the Internet, television and other screens in electrically supported circuits. The discussion on technological mediations puts us in a problematizing context of the places and habitual uses of literary, philosophical and educational discourse. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Images portraying the teacher and its classroom have played an essential role in the development of educational systems. This paper constitutes a research on the iconographic origin of the representations that were mainly used in Spain between 1876 and 1931. In order to do that european cards from the 16th to the 19th centuries, made using a variety of engraving techniques, that show teachers and pupils, are analyzed. The continuity of some of these characterizations and their Spanish update, identifying the teacher with the traditional Latin dómine, it's revealing. Its presence, both in the satirical press aimed at adults and in illustrated books for children, reflects it. This image directed towards criticism and entertainment has its compensation, also starring teachers and schoolchildren, representing rewards and penalties in children's reading books in that same period of time. Contextual factors allow us to position this variety of pictures -- the development of schooling and its protagonists, the editors' intentions in the media in which they appear -- but they can not compose a sufficient interpretation without paying attention to the role of the illustrator. The artistic education that he posseses and the resources he manages in his profesión or the influence from other artists are conclusive aspects in order to decide the final meaning, the whole visuality of his images establishing the potencial of their meaning.

This article is the result of research conducted at the Technical Educational Institution Plinio Mendoza Neira in the municipality of Toca, Boyacá (Colombia). The paper shows how the research process was with seventh grade students about ancestral foods: potatoes, ulluco, turnip, oca, squash and beans. In this process, participatory action research methodology was used with local knowledgeable people to describe the foods consumed and cultivated since pre-Hispanic times. The text discusses the importance of relating academia, traditional knowledge and food as part of the motivational process of students in the development of commercial agriculture.

This paper constitutes a reflective article arising from the research project entitled Learning two figurative uses in early childhood. Challenges and implications for education, funded by the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana between 2015 and 2020. It analyzes the need for early childhood and primary school teachers to make a conscious and explicit use of metaphors and idioms in their classroom pedagogical practices, taking into account the linguistic particularities that characterize these expressions and their relevance for learning from early ages. Likewise, a proposal is offered that allows the incorporation of metaphors and idioms in the classrooms of these educational levels, in a gradual and increasing way, taking into account the pragmatic comprehension skills of the children.

"Intersubjectivity, Empathy and Education. A Phenomenological Approach". The aim of this paper is to describe from a phenomenological perspective: a) the relationships between intersubjectivity and the phenomenon of education; b) empathy as the basis and the foundation of intersubjective relationships; and c) the importance of empathy for education. The thesis to be defended states that every educational process of teaching and learning, whether in school, in the family or in society, needs the experiencing of others and empathy makes it possible to access this sort of experience. This experience is mediated by the body and develops into an intercultural, intersubjective and inter-corporeal dimension. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an investigation on the strategies of higher education teachers to adopt academic activities to virtuality in times of pandemic. An exploratory study was conducted, conducted interviews with university professors from South American countries in order to learn about the different realities. The results suggest that the strategies in the different countries were similar, but in Brazil there was a great distinction between public and private institutions. Most of the teachers moved their classes for remote activities, being that they perceive that the difficulties of connection and access to digital technologies is an intervening factor for the continuity of classes and the attention to students. It is also concluded that students are more collaborative and tend to maintain or increase relationships with other students to overcome the barriers and difficulties imposed by social isolation.

It is becoming increasingly evident that spelling problems have settled at the university and that higher education students show little interest in alleviating them, let alone eradicating them. All their academic writings (exams, papers, emails, forums or messages through virtual platforms, etc.) are full of spelling mistakes. When an academic degree leads to professional teaching (preschool, primary or secondary) the problem becomes even more serious because if the benchmark fails, the level of exigencies that children and young people can be asked is at risk. This evidence is not associated with specific geographic areas or university campuses, but it is a characteristic, unfortunately negative, of the second millennium university student. A comparative study carried out in three such different contexts as the Universities of Málaga, Extremadura and Valladolid, among the second-year students of Degree in Primary Education in the respective Faculties of Education, confirm similar, repeated and very abundant spelling errors, which also verify a low level of vocabulary. Accent errors, H-use, S/X or Y/LL confusions, or spelling difficulties, so common in primary levels, characterize the spelling profile of university students, a consequence of their inattention and lack of interest, rather than of ignorance of grammar rules. By contrast, the lecturers are stunned by this reality. The reflection and self-analysis of mistakes made by students can contribute to their decline. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The following paper offers an analysis of the idea of wit according to Juan Huarte in order to construct a philosophic criterion that guides the individual to choose the science that best corresponds to them. This criterion is based on the determination of the different types of wit for the sciences and, according to Huarte, it is not guide by likes or wishes of the individual, but by the natural propensities objectified by the exercised capacities. In contrast to a psychologic perspective, Huarte's criterion represents an approach based on philosophic ideas, which are deemed within a system of thought that coordinates the intellectual faculties in relation to the sciences, arts and techniques corresponding to the different types of wits.

The government of poverty becomes educational policy and pedagogical approach in schools that develop proposals of education differentiated according to "sex", aimed at children and adolescents from popular sectors. Teachers' conceptions about their work with these sectors are based on a naturalistic and "social" reading of gender, which justifies the physical separation of boys and girls, and the supposed greater effectiveness of the work of educating if the "sex" of the teacher is homologated with that of the students. A pedagogical work is deployed with families in which they are placed as a threat or as possible allies, in terms of social work on gender violence in the family space. Gender policies are thus re-appropriated locally, justifying an organizational and pedagogical model based on physical separation and segregation according to criteria of inequality and differences, which reinforces the fragmentation of the system and segregation processes. The paper is based on a qualitative research developed in a private Catholic school that separates boys and girls in the city of Buenos Aires, and sought to understand the articulation of class and gender in the production of educational inequalities and their approach from the teachers' point of view.

During 19th century the Royal Spanish Academy's orthography was made official, the education system was established and the genre of textbooks flourished. These events are directly related to the orthographies for learners published throughout this century which will be studied in this research. The following paper is the result of an analysis of the orthography textbooks written between 1800 and 1857 by authors unaffiliated with the Royal Spanish Academy. But first, an overview of the situation regarding education during this period will be provided, paying special attention to school policies, the Academy, and textbooks of the time.
