Deathwatch, Robb White

arts and mathematics. A step towards integrated curriculum.

E n We have repeatedly argued that quality education for all and all involve significant changes in the design of the curriculum. One of these changes clearly point to the configuration of an integrated curriculum, in which reality is perceived as object of knowledge which can be accessed from different subjects, but always from a global and interdisciplinary perspective.
Of course, knowing the current reality, the vast majority of schools, arrive at the top of this objective would be like trying to climb a huge staircase one step. For this reason, we think it can go up step by step, making small (but important) concessions to the coordinated work of several areas, prior to the construction of integrated curriculum that we are talking about.
An example of this union between two areas is found in the Project Kovalevskaya in the literature and mathematics come together and reach a perfect marriage. The document to which we link from this post is a powerpoint presentation of Margarita Marín (Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha), one of the members of the project.
To learn more about this exciting field (which I just discovered) I strongly recommend the number 50 (January-February-March 2009) of UNO magazine Graó Publishers, devoted entirely to Literature and Mathematics : no be missed.

LIVING WITH THE CONFLICT. An interesting material.

E n the time we publish entries in this blog (and has spent considerable time) have appeared on several occasions related documents improvement of living together in the classroom. Of course, one of the ideas we want to "remove" from this blog is that false belief that an inclusive school relates only to the care of pupils with special educational needs. On the contrary, we argue that the inclusive school is a model of quality education for all pupils and, of course, in this search quality plays an important role improving the living.
in this way provides a recently published material Juan Gómez Lara (collective Amani) entitled Living with the Conflict. Conflict and Coexistence in the school. This material is discussed in clear terms the approach to the conflict in the classroom, exposing active strategies to capitalize on this the essence of life as an opportunity for learning. Just one more thing: the authorship of the text is by itself a guarantee.
We hope you find of interest.

ATTENTION TO THE DIVERSITY OF STUDENTS IN THE CLASSROOM AND PRIMARY EDUCATION

ace H few years, my colleagues at the Faculty Center commissioned me to carry a workshop for diversity at a conference organized traditionally in one of the locations in which we work. They held a conference in September (they kick off the course) and each year addresses a topic monograph. On that occasion the theme was the attention to diversity and, during that speech at the conference drew up a document that gave the audience and now recovered to put at your disposal. It is an "article" plain and simple, nothing convoluted, which offers some suggestions that could be applied in classrooms to better serve a diverse student body.

I hope will be of your interest.
