The objective of the article is to present the results of research on the construction of cross-border mega-regions, specifically Cali-Baja, based on their nature and role in industrial development linked to global production networks, which promotes economic complementarity, and despite the process of corporatization that occurred at some point, the territorial dynamics itself prevailed. In methodological terms, semi-structured interviews were applied to key actors and information generated from other tools such as focus groups was recovered. It is concluded that the construction of the mega-regions located along the U.S.-Mexico border is the result of multiple factors, but ends up being a social construction of those who inhabit and live in the region.

Previous investigations focused on web 2.0 communication in Spanish universities reach contradictory conclusions, although they agree on the existence of problems in their use of social networks. The present work delves into this field, expanding the limits of the number of universities, social networks and statistical analyses of prior studies. A descriptive quantitative research is carried out using multiple linear regression models with the aim of explaining and predicting the number of followers and reactions that universities obtain on social networks based on independent variables. Thereby, the communication of the 83 Spanish universities on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube is analysed for 14 weeks. The results show that the exposed regression models manage to predict a fundamental part of the followers that Spanish universities have on Facebook and Twitter networks, and a more discreet part on Instagram. Likewise, the regression models manage to predict a significant part of the weekly interaction that universities achieve on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Finally, they moderately explain the interaction per post on Instagram and Twitter. On YouTube the models do not work, so other variables should be investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This monograph has been to publish studies that help us identify new trends in emotional intelligence research and advance in its conceptualization, measurement, and training from different disciplines such as neuroscience, psychology, and education. Specifically, this monograph has been organized to appear in two volumes of Escritos de Psicología - Psychology Writings corresponding to the years 2022 and 2023. Four articles have been published in this 2022 volume. The first two are systematic reviews; the first focused on the implications of emotional intelligence in the clinical, occupational, and educational context, and the second on the most used instruments for the measurement of emotional intelligence in Argentine adults. The other two articles are empirical studies focused on the educational field that analyze the Emotional Commitment of Teachers and its relationship with different psychoeducational variables, and how Emotional Intelligence is a protective factor of burnout in teachers. The four articles that make up this first part of the monograph coincide in highlighting the relevance of research in the assessment and training of Emotional Intelligence for its impact on our personal and professional lives.

The contents of History of Nursing, in all its context of curricular inclusion and changes, is designed to promote a vision of the origins and the challenges and achievements that surrounded the realization of Nursing as a profession, generating a broad reflection of values, not only of characters who were part of the construction of the profession, but of their own values that identify them selves before them. Studies point out the lack of preparation and the lack of teachers in some disciplines, specifically in the discipline of Nursing History. The study aims to: understand the process of curricular organization of the discipline History of Nursing taught in undergraduate nursing education in public institutions in the State of São Paulo; identify the profile of teachers who teach the content of History of Nursing and understand teaching strategies, forms of assessment, workload and how these impact on the training of nurses. A qualitative study with an approach used by phenomenography. Data were collected through documentary research and interviews with professors who teach the contents of History of Nursing during the period of collection, that is, in 2019, at public universities in the State of São Paulo.

Technological devices are part of daily life of society and are also present in school environment. Therefore, gamification has been used as an alternative to traditional approaches to education. Thus, a theoretical essay was conducted with objective of reflecting on gamification in education and the risk of excessive use of digital games for health of adolescents. This reflection discusses the use of digital games in educational context, the risk behind digital games and strategies to minimize damage to health, arising from use of games. It was concluded that gamification proves to be an excellent catalyst for learning. However, if stimulated without moderation, it can generate a fascination for game, triggering feelings of anxiety, aggression and compulsion. Therefore, it is necessary that social actors directly or indirectly involved in education of adolescents, such as family, school community and health professionals, be aware of possible changes in behavior of adolescents and structure actions, strategies and policies of health care, focused on use of digital games by teenagers.

Immersed in the 21st century, characterized by the end of certainties, it is necessary to transmute the ways of doing school. Within the educational system, the institution of school supervision plays a fundamental role in these new ways of being and being within schools. It is in its pedagogical function and from its role as guarantor of the continuous training of all teachers in its jurisdiction that it will achieve the expected improvement. The essay consists of the presentation of the most relevant background of the Doctoral Thesis Project, elaborated within the framework of the Doctorate in Education of the Catholic University of Córdoba. The objective is to explore and describe the trajectory of the training function of the zone inspector. The aim is to explain the tendency adopted over time, considering that the academic contribution would have an impact on the denaturalization of the supervisor's training function, so necessary to give answers to the reality of the present century: to accompany managers and teachers so that reflexivity becomes their practice oriented to educational improvement in response to the uncertainty that characterizes contemporaneity. The idea is to build the identity of the school zone inspector today, from different perspectives: theoretical, practical, historical and legal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this research is based on solving mathematical problems from the School Garden and the use of ICT with students from third, fourth and fifth grades of the Clavellinas Educational Institution. The qualitative methodology of participatory action research type applied in this study favors an active interaction of the participating agents and subjects. The sample was selected intentionally or by convenience and the data collection instruments used were interviews, surveys, participant observations, and didactic sequence. The applied research demonstrates that the articulation of the school garden as a pedagogical strategy allows significant advances in the development of problem solving in the five areas of thinking: numerical, spatial, metric, random and variational, and also recognizes the importance of acquiring good eating habits with the consumption of vegetables in the diet. The research validates the pedagogical strategy of articulating the school garden to the area of mathematics, since students acquire skills and abilities to formulate and solve mathematical problems in a creative and competent manner in context.

This article reflects on the distorted views of science from an educational and epistemological perspective of a student of the master's degree in Teacher of Compulsory Secondary Education, Vocational Training and Language Teaching. It is intended then with this text to present some ideas around eight distortions identified by research in science didactics, which mutually support each other forming a conceptual framework that blocks the possibility of achieving a genuine scientific literacy. The most traditional school practices continue, even today, transmitting an impoverished, mythologized, disenchanted and naive image of the scientific disciplines, of their objectives, of their methods, of the evolution and development of their knowledge; a perspective that will frame their true nature by presenting them as esoteric, elitist, useless, ahistorical, decontextualized and excessively analytical knowledge. In conclusion, the need to introduce non-formal education into teaching as a tool that contributes to eradicating these distorted views is postulated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to discuss the relationship established between underdevelopment and education by the area of economic planning in the Brazilian military dictatorship. The text is the result of historical research in the Planejamento & Desenvolvimento magazine, an official publication of the regime, highlighting articles published between 1973 and 1975. The studies reported by the magazine reveal evidence of a broad social project for the formation of university-educated elites that would lead a population considered unable of keep up with the productivity demanded by economic development. Elitist social interpretations and long-term authoritarian political views were handled to discuss the access to higher education by the most impoverished social classes in Brazil.

Dyslexia is a reading difficulty of neurological basis which is often associated to a deficit at the phonological level of reading - but not restricted to it. In this review, we sought to identify relevant research conducted on the interaction between dyslexia and bilingualism in the last twenty years. For this purpose, eleven studies were selected from CAPES Journals Portal. Results of these studies reached contrasting conclusions, some indicating a continuum of dyslexic traces across the languages, while others emphasized the role of interacting factors such as orthographic depth and language granularity modulating the manifestations of dyslexia in each language. The implications of these findings for education are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This document shows that working holistically with children of basic education from interdisciplinarity is a contribution to the problems of insecurity and violence. The field of action focused on the culture of peace with informal instruments in the formality of a reality, and especially communication mechanisms such as drawing and interviewing, part of the action research process, lead us to work to raise awareness and to promote the culture of peace with proposals adjusted to a reality and social context, which can be a pillar to establish long-term strategies for our children as actors in a culture of peace.

Objective: To understand the institutional self-management in the face of the risk of the Galeras volcano in the Educational Institution (I.E.) San Bartolomé in the municipality of La Florida, Nariño, Colombia. Methodology: Qualitative study with an ethnographic perspective, with the participation of the educational community and representatives of government institutions. Participant observation, documentary analysis, individual and group interviews and focus groups were carried out. Results: The development of the volcanic risk institutional self-management process was possible thanks to the leadership and implementation of training and operational strategies, in coordination with the social, cultural and political context, which together have generated both institutional and social transformations. Conclusions: The case of this I.E. constitutes an example of active coping with volcanic risk, based on educational spaces that have strengthened social ties and cultural identity, enabling self-management as an alternative form of coexistence with the Galeras Volcano.

This study mapped and discussed works that deal with the internationalization of education in its interface with language policies, from Postgraduate Programs in Letters and Linguistics in Brazil, between 2009 and 2019. It is a state-of-the-art bibliographic research, in the Catalog Capes Theses and Dissertations (BTD) and in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD). From the investigated theses and dissertations, it is possible to notice: a) the area's growing interest in these themes, affirming the inter/transdisciplinary character of language studies and the relevance of languages in internationalization; b) predominance of research in the South-Southeast axis; c) focus on government programs; d) studies in the context of English and French teaching. Thus, we point out the need for studies in the context of other languages and approaches, and for researches that discuss alternatives to traditional internationalization strategies and to break with hegemonic and excluding language practices. KEYWORDS: Language Policies. Internationalization. Education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present work is the result of research that aimed to understand the reality of the implementation of content on the history and culture of Africa and Afro-Brazilians, in the Pedagogical Course Projects, in-person Licentiate degrees, at the JK Campus, at the Federal University of Vales do Jequitinhonha and Mucuri, in the following courses: Biological Sciences, Physical Education, Geography, History, Letters, Pedagogy and Chemistry. We verified in the curricular matrices of the signposted courses, among them, which have contents and disciplines that dialogue with themes related to Education for Ethnic-Racial Relations, above all, which aim to meet the resolutions of Resolution CNE / CP no. 02/2015? This social research, of a qualitative nature, of documentary type, analyzed and collected data in the Pedagogical Course Projects (PPCs). We seek to access these documents through the UFVJM website and web pages of the respective courses analyzed. After analyzing the data, we consider that the face-to-face undergraduate courses of the Licenciaturas, at Campus JK, at UFVJM, partially meet the resolutions of Resolution CNE / CP n° 02/2015, in addition to the anti-racist legislation: Federal Law n°. 10.639 / 03 and Federal Law no. 11,645 / 08. We believe that there is a long way to effectively implement anti-racist education in the curriculum of training courses for future professionals of basic education, graduates of this institution of higher public education, inserted in the region of Vale do Jequitinhonha, State of Minas Gerais.

Gender and sexuality studies have always been a controversial issue, dividing opinions regarding their discussion in the school context. In general, the approaches related to sexuality and gender that permeate the school curriculum are instituted from concepts linked to the pattern of heteronormativity. The objective of this research was to analyze the academic production on curriculum, sexual diversity and teaching action in the school context and the meanings built in this movement of construction of knowledge. To this end, a state of the art was carried out from the analysis of dissertations and theses, published between the years 2009 and 2019. The findings pointed to a discussion still operated by the biologizing bias, with a focus on human reproduction, taking as an argument to explain postures in relation to the subject. From the bibliographic survey, it was noticed that there is still little discussion on curriculum / curriculum policies that approach the theme in more depth, in terms of politicalphilosophical understandings, sometimes presenting themselves in a very punctual and superficial way. In view of the above, it is considered necessary to expand the debate on the possibility of contributing so that the school can think of strategies to deal with this issue, transforming itself into a space that recognizes differences.

This is the analysis of the text Inquiries about the curriculum: Curriculum, knowledge and Culture, which is one of the five notebooks organized by the Ministry of Education (MEC) in 2007. The document authored by Antonio Flávio Moreira and Vera Candau, aims, like the other notebooks, to create debates, questions and reflections in the education systems, regarding the conception of curriculum and its developments. In the document analyzed, the authors note that the concern with the curricular issue moved from the relationship between curriculum and knowledge to curriculum and culture. This concern materialized after 1990, where it became the topic of discussion at various conferences developed by international organizations, including the World Bank, which prompts us to ask: What is the concern with the educational curriculum? and what conception of knowledge, culture and curriculum are being defended in this instruction perspective? To respond to these concerns, we use the Historical-Critical Pedagogy as a contribution to the analysis of the conceptions about curriculum, knowledge and culture pointed out in the base text. We emphasize that our defense is based on man's ability to learn to feel, think, evaluate and act, and not simply to adapt to the current system, arguments observed between the lines of these guiding documents.

This article aims to understand the role attributions, gender relations and power involved by the production of disciplined bodies in educational educational spaces. The study is justified by the need to investigate the concepts of Gender, Sex and Sexuality, including the process of how the bodies of boys and girls are educated in school, by identifying and reproducing social roles. The methodology is a theoretical study of references that are dedicated to the study about gender in the school. As a result, educational professionals should understand these disciplinary mechanisms frequently used in educational institutions, so that there is an emancipatory possibility of thinking about school as a form of interceptor of time I space of freedom, autonomy and diversity.

This article analyses diferent conceptions of State and social policy in order to identify how these conceptions are presented in studies on educational Inequalities. These studies were obtained from Portal de Periódicos da Coordenaçâo Nacional de Aperfelçoamento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (Capes), based in the following criteria: articles published In the last five years (from 2014 to 2019), In Portuguese, in peer-review journals, containing the expressions "desigualdades educacionais" and "Estado). The analysis showed that the lack of a clear conception of State and of Its role influences the analysis of educational policy objectives and Its implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Anomie, Collective Consciousness, and Solidarity: Classical concepts within sociology are treated in this article as starting points for discussing school and human rights education as fundamental to building a more diverse and inclusive world. This analysis includes criticism of the school system and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as tools of domination and perpetuation of power, establishing themselves as paradigms In view of the emancipatory characteristics thatthey have in the popular imagination. On the other hand, considering the school as an environment of production and not only of knowledge reproduction, it is proposed that such paradigms have the power to act as catalysts and propellers of social counter hegemonic transformations.

This paper deals with theoretical, methodological and ethical questions raised when embracing children as subjects of research in an ethnography of the agency of the bullying concept in Brazilian contemporaneity. In order to situate these challenges in an empirical context, the paper delineates as a case study the connections that children today make between the agency of this concept and the attribution of pejorative nicknames among school peers.
