    Description: Various forms of academic co-operation criss-cross the modern university system in a bewildering number of ways, from the open exchange of ideas and knowledge, to the sharing of research results, and frank discussions about research challenges. Embedded in these scholarly networks is the question of whether a global template for the management of both higher education and national research organisations is necessary, and if so, must institutions slavishly follow the high-flown language of the global knowledge society or risk falling behind in the ubiquitous university ranking system? Or are there alternatives that can achieve a better, more ethically inclined, world? Basing their observations on their own experiences, an interesting mix of seasoned scholars and new voices from southern Africa and the Nordic region offer critical perspectives on issues of inter- and cross-regional academic co-operation. Several of the chapters also touch on the evolution of the higher education sector in the two regions. An absorbing and intelligent study, this book will be invaluable for anyone interested in the strategies scholars are using to adapt to the interconnectedness of the modern world. It offers fresh insights into how academics are attempting to protect the spaces in which they can freely and openly debate the challenges they face, while aiming to transform higher education, and foster scholarly collaboration. The Southern African-Nordic Centre (SANORD) is a partnership of higher education institutions from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Botswana, Namibia, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. SANORDs primary aim is to promote multilateral research co-operation on matters of importance to the development of both regions. Our activities are based on the values of democracy, equity, and mutually beneficial academic engagement.

    Description: This book focuses on digital approaches to capacity development, reflecting the greater interest in how digital tools and platforms can be used for capacity development in the ‘Global South’. While Covid-19 demonstrated some of the benefits of online learning, the widespread, often uncritical adoption of online tools driven by necessity has left many with an experience of ‘emergency online learning’. This book aims to assist in the design of technology-enhanced capacity development by sharing evidence of practices that are principled rather than rushed; inclusive rather than creating new digital divides. We have worked to evidence how technology can be leveraged effectively to enhance or strengthen capacities of individuals, teams or systems. We make clear that there are no magic bullets, that online approaches are not simply quicker or cheaper substitutes, and that solutions need to be selected carefully, designed well, and significant time invested if it is to work well. We hope Digital Technology in Capacity Development will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in a range of institutions, whether they are directly responsible for designing, delivering or evaluating new initiatives or whether they are advising or funding those who do.

    Description: Este libro propone profundizar el concepto de saber con el que opera la enseñanza de la Educación Física en la Formación Superior de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata. La hipótesis planteada en los capítulos de este trabajo colectivo es que no hay correspondencia entre la teoría y la práctica en los procesos de formación inicial en Educación Física. La intención fue la de identificar los distintos tipos de saberes que conforman la malla curricular del plan de estudios y de las asignaturas del tronco común de la carrera Educación Física de la FaHCE-UNLP, haciendo especial hincapié en la vinculación entre teoría y práctica, a fin de reconocer su presencia e impacto en la formación del profesorado.

    Description: This publication is the result of a baseline study of the state of the higher education systems in the five Portuguese speaking countries in Africa (PALOP): Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and Sao Tome and Principe. The project was undertaken by an African international expert in the field of higher education studies and was fully sponsored and supported by the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA). The report offers a historical overview of the development of higher education in PALOP from colonial times to the present. The main objective of this baseline study is to map the landscape and dynamics of change in the higher education systems of PALOP countries. It focuses on describing the latest developments of trends of expansion, financing, governance and policy reforms closely linked to the development of higher education systems in these countries. Furthermore, the study will facilitate an informed debate and the dissemination of knowledge on the role of higher education for development in Africa.

    Description: Whether and how higher education in Africa contributes to democratisation beyond producing the professionals that are necessary for developing and sustaining a modern political system, remains an unresolved question. This report, then, represents an attempt to address the question of whether there are university specific mechanisms or pathways by which higher education contributes to the development of democratic attitudes and behaviours among students, and how these mechanisms operate and relate to politics both on and off campus. The research contained in this report shows that the potential of a university to act as training ground for democratic citizenship is best realised by supporting students' exercise of democratic leadership on campus. This, in turn, develops and fosters democratic leadership in civil society. Thus, the university's response to student political activity, student representation in university governance and other aspects of extra-curricular student life needs to be examined for ways in which African universities can instil and support democratic values and practices. Encouraging and facilitating student leadership in various forms of on-campus political activity and in a range of student organisations emerges as one of the most promising ways in which African universities can act as training grounds for democratic citizenship. The project on which this report is based forms part of a larger study on Higher Education and Democracy in Africa, undertaken by the Higher Education Research and Advocacy Network in Africa (HERANA). HERANA is coordinated by the Centre for Higher Education Transformation in South Africa.

    Description: This book explores learning outcomes for low-income rural and township youth at five South African universities. The book is framed as a contribution to southern and Africa-centred scholarship, adapting Amartya Sen’s capability approach and a framework of key concepts: capabilities, functionings, context, conversion factors, poverty and agency to investigate opportunities and obstacles to achieved student outcomes. This approach allows a reimagining of ‘inclusive learning outcomes’ to encompass the multi-dimensional value of a university education and a plurality of valued cognitive and non-cognitive outcomes for students from low-income backgrounds whose experiences are strongly shaped by hardship. Based on capability theorising and student voices, the book proposes for policy and practice a set of contextual higher education capability domains and corresponding functionings orientated to more justice and more equality for each person to have the opportunities to be and to do what they have reason to value. The book concludes that sufficient material resources are necessary to get into university and flourish while there; the benefits of a university education should be rich and multi-dimensional so that they can result in functionings in all areas of life as well as work and future study; the inequalities and exclusion of the labour market and pathways to further study must be addressed by wider economic and social policies for ‘inclusive learning outcomes’ to be meaningful; and that universities ought to be doing more to enable black working-class students to participate and succeed. Low-Income Students, Human Development and Higher Education in South Africamakes an original contribution to capabilitarian scholarship: conceptually in theorising a South-based multi-dimensional student well-being higher education matrix and a rich reconceptualisation of learning outcomes, as well as empirically by conducting rigorous, longitudinal in-depth mixed-methods research on students’ lives and experiences in higher education in South Africa. The audience for the book includes higher education researchers, international capabilitarian scholars, practitioners and policy-makers.

    Description: Universities and economic development in Africa: Pact, academic core and coordination draws together evidence and synthesises the findings from eight African case studies. The three key findings presented in this report are as follows: 1. There is a lack of clarity and agreement (pact) about a development model and the role of higher education in development, at both national and institutional levels. There is, however, an increasing awareness, particularly at government level, of the importance of universities in the global context of the knowledge economy. 2. Research production at the eight African universities is not strong enough to enable them to build on their traditional undergraduate teaching roles and make a sustained contribution to development via new knowledge production. A number of universities have manageable student-staff ratios and adequately qualifi ed staff, but inadequate funds for staff to engage in research. In addition, the incentive regimes do not support knowledge production. 3. In none of the countries in the sample is there a coordinated effort between government, external stakeholders and the university to systematically strengthen the contribution that the university can make to development. While at each of the universities there are exemplary development projects that connect strongly to external stakeholders and strengthen the academic core, the challenge is how to increase the number of these projects. The project on which this report is based forms part of a larger study on Higher Education and Economic Development in Africa, undertaken by the Higher Education Research and Advocacy Network in Africa (HERANA). HERANA is coordinated by the Centre for Higher Education Transformation in South Africa.

    Description: This nine-country study of higher education financing in Africa includes three East African states (Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda), five countries in southern Africa (Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia and South Africa), and an Indian Ocean island state (Mauritius). Higher Education Financing in East and Southern Africa explores trends in financing policies, paying particular attention to the nature and extent of public sector funding of higher education, the growth of private financing (including both household financing and the growth of private higher education institutions) and the changing mix of financing instruments that these countries are developing in response to public sector financial constraints. This unique collection of African-country case studies draws attention to the remaining challenges around the financing of higher education in Africa, but also identifies good practices, lessons and common themes.

    Description: El trabajo docente es un mirador central de diversas preocupaciones sobre lo educativo. La construcción de un determinado rol para la tarea de educar tiene una rica historia de prácticas, luchas, debates, disputas y de propuestas. Esas expresiones consolidaron también una imagen social acerca de qué es un/a docente, qué debe esperarse de él/ella y cuáles son sus atributos. La docencia –como trabajo y como rol pedagógico y social– es una de esas prácticas sociales que han sedimentado y cuyos puntos de origen, así como las decisiones que contribuyeron a su conformación, han ido volviéndose cada día menos evidentes. Este libro ofrece un recorrido por una agenda de investigación sobre formación y trabajo docente que vincula las ideas pedagógicas con la materialidad de la escuela, la productividad del currículum, las estrategias de enseñanza, los vínculos y las relaciones que se despliegan con el conocimiento. Para ello, se incorpora, además, una mirada multidimensional sobre los diversos entretelones de la formación y el trabajo docente. A lo largo del trabajo, nos preocupamos por mirar a las instituciones educativas –y a las posiciones docentes en ellas– con una perspectiva compleja, abriéndonos a interpretar más que a validar o a invalidar.

    Description: The Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college environment is marked by increasingly stark juxtapositions between what needs to be achieved in the post-school education sector and the increasing difficulty of current conditions. The ‘triple challenge’ of poverty, inequality and unemployment weighs heavily on the social, political and economic fabric of the country and expectations are high that the TVET colleges can make a pivotal contribution to counter these challenges. Despite laudable increases in TVET enrolment, the education system needs to work harder to accommodate the weight of demand for post school further education and training (FET) band qualifications from young people not in education, employment or training. At the same time, it is vital to secure adequate quality in TVET programmes which depend so much on the competence and commitment of college lecturers.

    Description: Este libro es el resultado de investigación del proyecto “Educación Física y escuela: el deporte como contenido y su enseñanza” (2009-2013) 11/H573, como continuidad de estudios anteriores, que fueron realizados en instituciones deportivas. El producto presenta las características y particularidades del tratamiento y la enseña del deporte, en escuelas públicas y privadas de la región y zonas aledañas, en los niveles primario y secundario, en clases organizadas con alumnos agrupados por sexo o de forma mixta. Desde una perspectiva cualitatíva–interpretativa se trabajó en la recolección de información a través de observación y registro de clase, entrevistas a profesores, profesoras, estudiantes y expertas, análisis de planificaciones y de libros de temas como también de textos teóricos y técnico-metodológicos de uso corriente en la escuela y entre los profesores y profesoras. También se analizó el Diseño Curricular de Educación Física para los niveles primario y secundario. El tratamiento realizado con estos materiales, entre otros, se refleja de forma particular en los diferentes capítulos, mostrando tanto diversas posibilidades de entrecruzamiento de fuentes e información como de análisis e interpretación. Esos mismos capítulos muestran diferentes formas de describir y escribir. A la vez, este producto incluye en particular una discusión dada por el equipo en torno a los sentidos y significados que pueden asignársele y otorgársele al deporte, en un momento avanzado del desarrollo de la investigación, intentando reflejar y respetar las miradas y voces presentes en la información lograda. En ese sentido, se privilegia la discusión en torno a las particulares característica que toma el deporte en la escuela al ser enseñando, lo que supone cambios y asignaciones especiales al mismo que exceden las caracterizaciones tradicionales y clásicas existentes en el campo. Al cierre, se presentan algunas conclusiones generales que suman a las particulares realizadas en cada capítulo.

    Description: Finland, South Korea and the state of North Carolina in the United States are three systems that successfully have harnessed higher education in their economic development initiatives. Common to the success of the all these systems is, amongst others, the link between economic and education planning, quality public schooling, high tertiary participation rates with institutional differentiation, labour market demand, cooperation and networks, and consensus about the importance of higher education for development. Linking higher education and economic development: Implications for Africa from three successful systems draws together evidence on the three systems, synthesises the key findings, and distils the implications for African countries.

    Description: El estudio de la enseñanza profesional, la investigación científica, la creación artística, la extensión cultural y la transferencia de conocimientos y tecnología a la sociedad que llevan adelante las universidades públicas argentinas, así como sobre su organización institucional y de gobierno, resultó una preocupación intelectual permanente de los integrantes de la comunidad académica entre los siglos XIX y XX, que persiste aún en el siglo XXI. Esta inquietud constituye una tradición del pensamiento universitario argentino. En esta obra, Julio V. González produjo una investigación que retomaba la voluntad de los reformistas por realizar una nueva transformación del sistema universitario. Con su reconstrucción del desenvolvimiento histórico de la Universidad de Buenos Aires a lo largo de un siglo, su reforma educativa atribuía a las universidades la expedición de diplomas académicos, cuya habilitación para el ejercicio social de las “profesiones liberales” quedara bajo potestad del Estado. Éste garantizaría así la provisión de profesionales de acuerdo a las demandas sociales, en tanto la universidad, emancipada de la función del profesionalismo, desplegaría sus posibilidades de creación científica y cultural. De este modo, esas universidades cumplirían por fin el papel de dirección intelectual de la sociedad que para González y el movimiento reformista debían desempeñar.

    Description: Alejandro Joaquín Amavet fue uno de los impulsores de la creación del Profesorado Superior Universitario de Educación Física en la Universidad Nacional de la Plata, y quien desarrolló y representó para los distintos actores del campo disciplinar la perspectiva que singularizó en sus inicios la formación en esta institución. Sus trabajos, editados entre 1957 y 1969, circulan entre profesores y estudiantes del Profesorado de Educación Física de la casa desde su publicación hasta la actualidad, con diferentes lecturas e inscripciones programáticas. Por ello, este volumen tiene como intención, por un lado, reeditar parte de los escritos del profesor Amavet como una forma de facilitar el acceso a estos y su difusión; pero, por otro lado, busca reavivar y potenciar una serie de discusiones sobre el pasado y el presente. Es decir, esta reedición se ofrece para pensar cuestiones inherentes a la educación física en lo relativo a la institución, a la formación en la Argentina y al campo disciplinar entre las décadas del 50 y 70, aunque estos textos también pueden aportar a la observación del presente a partir de esta referencia, potente en su momento, y en parte aparentemente lejana y diferente para el modo de significar y explicar la educación física de la actualidad.

    Description: Este libro reúne una versión actualizada del texto canónico “Trabajo, Juego y Vocación” con otros ensayos que representan un aporte crucial para la problematización de temas específicos del campo de la Educación Física y el Deporte, abordados con el rigor conceptual y la claridad que caracteriza el estilo comunicativo de Adriana Marrero. A partir del desarrollo de conceptos claves de la teoría sociológica clásica y contemporánea sobre la modernidad y su radicalización, se analiza la práctica docente concreta del Profesor de Educación Física, las particulares contradicciones que lo atraviesan y sus efectos en las subjetividades de sus actores. El planteo da cuenta de la dificultad de armonizar exigencias y expectativas provenientes de un concepto altruista y vocacional de la docencia, por un lado, con las duras condiciones laborales del campo y su lógica instrumental por otro, sobre el trasfondo de poderosas representaciones sociales y culturales de la Educación Física, que asocian el juego y la recreación con el ocio y la falta de esfuerzo. En ese recorrido, se interpreta e incorpora al análisis sociológico y educativo para la Educación Física las tensiones que la filosofía moderna en Occidente describe en los procesos de racionalización y de secularización de la modernidad. Asimismo, en este volumen se analiza el deporte de masas como espectáculo para el consumo, la enseñanza curricular de prácticas deportivas y corporales, y la relación entre el desarrollo del fútbol de masas y constitución de la identidad nacional uruguaya.

    Description: Este libro compila resultados de una investigación centrada en la enseñanza en aulas plurigrado de nivel primario. El gran desafío que plantea este tipo de escuelas es la diversidad de edades, saberes y conocimientos. El proceso de indagación se realizó en talleres de formación docente y en aulas donde estos docentes desarrollan su acción cotidiana. Los capítulos de este libro ofrecen al lector datos y reflexiones elaboradas a propósito de la planificación de la acción, de espacios de formación de maestros y del desarrollo de secuencias didácticas en tres áreas (Matemática, Ciencias Sociales y Prácticas del Lenguaje). Desde diferentes perspectivas, los autores analizan de qué manera las condiciones de heterogeneidad pueden ser explotadas didácticamente y, lejos de constituir una restricción o una dificultad para la enseñanza, transformarse en una oportunidad para favorecer la circulación y diversificación de conocimientos.

    Description: Education is considered key for societies to achieve greater social cohesion and equality. Yet, schools, as the main providers of formal education, have increasingly come into question concerning their role in manifesting and perpetuating social categorisations, inequalities and discrimination instead of decreasing existing fragmentations and challenging power relations and hierarchies. As a diverse society, Kenya is faced with power struggles and rivalries between different groups – for instance, along ethnic lines, often constructed deep in colonial history. This affects teaching and learning in school and the result is that Kenya is faced with vast disparities in terms of educational access and success – rendering some social groups marginalised and others favoured. Positioning Diversity at Kenyan Schools explores the ways in which teachers in Kenyan primary and secondary schools experience and deal with social categorisations and diversity in terms of ethnicity, gender, wealth, culture, religion, etc. in their professional practice and in the current education system. Using critical pedagogy and diversity theory as a lens for positioning diversity in Kenyan schools, the questions that this book sets out to answer are: In what ways do the teachers’ and schools’ practices lead to transformation in terms of more social equality and less discrimination? In what ways do the practices manifest existing group categorisations, hierarchies and discrimination? How can schools and teaching practices in postcolonial Kenya become more inclusive and foster social cohesion and equality?

    Description: South Africa has made huge gains in ensuring universal enrolment for children at school, and in restructuring and recapitalising the FET college sector. However, some three million young people are not in education, employment or training and the country faces serious challenges in providing its youth with the pathways and support they need to transition successfully into a differentiated system of post-school education and training. Across nine evidence-based chapters, 17 authors offer a succinct overview of the different facets of post-school provision in South Africa. These include an analysis of the impact of the national qualifications system on occupational training, the impact of youth unemployment, the capacity of the post-school system to absorb larger numbers of young people, the relationship between universities and FET colleges, the need for more strategic public and private investment in skills development, and a youth perspective on education and training policy. The authors have a number of recommendations for improving the alignment between schooling, further education and training, and university education – interventions that could shape the future of South Africa’s youth.

    Description: Positivism and Antipositivism in Argentina: Positivism in Argentina was once a dominant influence on the thought of many intellectuals and, through them, on the very cultural formation of the country. This makes the approach of this book particularly interesting, as it subjects the currents of positivism and anti-positivism to a serious critical examination. By identifying the role played by both trends within Argentine thought, and furthermore by clarifying their influence, this book points out the derivations of positivism and anti-positivism not only in culture, but also in the local historical process. Its author, Berta Perelstein, was a pedagogue and communist intellectual whose contributions go beyond educational thought and reflection and extend into the great cultural debates, such as the one she proposes in this pioneer work, only now re-edited.
    Description: Published
    Description: El positivismo en la Argentina tuvo en su momento una influencia preponderante sobre el pensamiento de muchos intelectuales y a través de ellos, en la propia formación cultural del país. De ahí que resulte por demás interesante el enfoque de esta obra que somete a las corrientes del positivismo y del antipositivismo a un serio examen crítico. Al ubicar el papel que tuvieron unas y otras dentro del pensamiento argentino, y más aún, al aclarar esas influencias, señala las derivaciones no solo en la cultura, sino también en nuestro proceso histórico. Su autora, Berta Perelstein, fue una pedagoga e intelectual comunista cuyos aportes desbordan el pensamiento y la reflexión educativa y se proyectan a los grandes debates culturales como el que propone en una obra precursora y hasta ahora no reeditada.

    Description: Education, Recent History and Memory. Research and Methodological Approaches: Recent Latin American history has been marked by processes of political radicalization, dictatorships, authoritarianism and armed conflicts. Education, pedagogical thinking and educational policies in the region were not immune to these historical conditions. This work studies the intersections between the recent history of education, on the one hand, and memory, on the other, a field which adopted methodological perspectives with specific features. The compiled chapters attempt to answer some key questions for Argentina and Colombia: how to approach the role of pedagogical ideas in the revolutionary projects, in the configuration of schools, in the circulation and confrontation of memories about a traumatic past? What place do educational policies and the commitment of educators occupy in the approach to social and political conflict?

    Description: The search for answers to the issue of global sustainability has become increasingly urgent. In the context of higher education, many universities and academics are seeking new insights that can shift our dependence on ways of living that rely on the exploitation of so many and the degradation of so much of our planet. This is the vision that drives SANORD and many of the researchers and institutions within its network. Although much of the research is on a relatively small scale, the vision is steadily gaining momentum, forging dynamic collaborations and pathways to new knowledge. The contributors to this book cover a variety of subject areas and offer fresh insights about chronically under-researched parts of the world. Others document and critically reflect on innovative approaches to cross-continental teaching and research collaborations. This book will be of interest to anyone involved in the transformation of higher education or the practicalities of cross-continental and cross-disciplinary academic collaboration. The Southern African-Nordic Centre (SANORD) is a network of higher education institutions from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Botswana, Namibia, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Universities in the southern African and Nordic regions that are not yet members are encouraged to join.

    Description: El presente libro busca realizar una aproximación a la población que se inscribió en los profesorados de Educación Física en la provincia de Buenos Aires. A partir de una encuesta administrada en cuatro instituciones a los ingresantes y a los estudiantes que se encontraban en el último año de la formación, se procuró trazar a lo largo de la obra una serie de perfiles con los caracteres que singularizan a estos grupos sociales. En ese proceso, se prestó especial atención a las inscripciones dentro del sistema de educación superior de las instituciones donde se cursaba la formación. A tal efecto, se analizaron los casos de estudiantes que transitaron su formación en universidades nacionales y en institutos de formación docente de gestión pública y privada. Teniendo todo ello en cuenta, se indagó en las concepciones disciplinares y sus percepciones acerca del ámbito laboral futuro. Este trabajo busca abrir un grupo de interrogantes para continuar reflexionando sobre la formación superior.

    Description: Según postula Foucault la verdad del cuerpo en la modernidad es un privilegio de las ciencias biomédicas, que promueven una relación matematizada y geometrizada sujeta a diversos procedimientos de mensuración. Partimos de esta base para emprender una genealogía que nos permita comprender el alcance de ese proyecto en el campo de la Educación y de la educación corporal. Los trabajos que presentamos parten de esta teorización para explorar diversos territorios que problematizan las vinculaciones del cuerpo y la educación, a partir de los aportes del filósofo francés. La genealogía que emprendió en sus últimos años, y que tiene como eje al problema del sujeto ético, nos abre un fértil horizonte para situar el complejo problema de la relación entre el sujeto y la verdad, o mejor, la tríada: sujeto, verdad y poder. Entendemos que en ese momento de su obra se encuentran los conceptos más promisores para ampliar el horizonte del debate en las ciencias humanas de forma general y en el campo de la educación corporal en particular.

    Description: "In what ways does access to undergraduate education have a transformative impact on people and societies? What conditions are required for this impact to occur? What are the pathways from an undergraduate education to the public good, including inclusive economic development? These questions have particular resonance in the South African higher education context, which is attempting to tackle the challenges of widening access and improving completion rates in in a system in which the segregations of the apartheid years are still apparent. Higher education is recognised in core legislation as having a distinctive and crucial role in building post-apartheid society. Undergraduate education is seen as central to addressing skills shortages in South Africa and is also seen to yield significant social returns, including a consistent positive impact on societal institutions and the development of a range of capabilities that have public, as well as private, benefits. However, the precise extent and nature of these impacts remain unclear, particularly in light of contemporary global, social and economic challenges. This book offers comprehensive contemporary evidence that allows for a fresh engagement with these pressing issues."

    Description: Around the world, more young people than ever before are attending university. Student numbers in South Africa have doubled since democracy and for many families, higher education is a route to a better future for their children. But alongside the overwhelming demand for higher education, questions about its purposes have intensified. Deliberations about the curriculum, culture and costing of public higher education abound from student activists, academics, parents, civil society and policy-makers. We know, from macro research, that South African graduates generally have good employment prospects. But little is known at a detailed level about how young people actually make use of their university experiences to craft their life courses. And even less is known about what happens to those who drop out. This accessible book brings together the rich life stories of 73 young people, six years after they began their university studies. It traces how going to university influences not only their employment options, but also nurtures the agency needed to chart their own way and to engage critically with the world around them. The book offers deep insights into the ways in which public higher education is both a private and public good, and it provides significant conclusions pertinent to anyone who works in – and cares about – universities.

    Description: Este libro es el resultado de un trabajo colectivo de profesores investigadores interesados por la enseñanza del juego en diferentes contextos educativos, acreditados en el Grupo de Investigación en Juego (GIJ). Fruto de diez años de investigación, en el libro construyen su objeto de estudio en torno a los usos y sentidos del Juego en las prácticas de la Educación Física y en aquellos contextos educativos donde maestros, aprendices y saberes se configuran como prácticas. Elaboran aquí una Teoría del Juego pensada como un saber hacer, para hacer de ese saber un objeto de reflexión orientado por su propia lógica. La pregunta que orienta sus indagaciones no es tanto qué es el juego en sí, sino por cómo llega a comprenderse lo que es. La posición epistemológica desde donde este grupo estudia el juego se asienta en considerar que son los sujetos quienes están constituidos por las experiencias en determinadas condiciones históricas, y es el análisis de estas el que construye y constituye la teoría para su interpretación.

    Description: Since the 1990s, internationalisation has become key for institutions wishing to secure funding for higher education and research. For the academic community, this strategic shift has had many consequences. Priorities have changed and been influenced by new ways of thinking about universities, and of measuring their impact in relation to each other and to their social goals. Debates are ongoing and hotly contested. In this collection, a mix of renowned academics and newer voices reflect on some of the realities of international research partnerships. They both question and highlight the agency of academics, donors and research institutions in the geopolitics of knowledge and power. The contributors offer fresh insights on institutional transformation, the setting of research agendas, and access to research funding, while highlighting the dilemmas researchers face when their institutions are vulnerable to state and donor influence. Offering a range of perspectives on why academics should collaborate and what for, this book will be useful to anyone interested in how scholars are adapting to the realities of international networking and how research institutions are finding innovative ways to make North–South partnerships and collaborations increasingly fair, sustainable and mutually beneficial.

Nuestro propósito es aportar documentación y análisis de las si­tuaciones educativas no escolares en torno a la lectura y la escritura que desarrollamos en dicha unidad con grupos de niños multiedad y con grupos de mujeres, así como otras accio­nes a favor del derecho de las madres priva­das de libertad de participar de las actividades escolares de sus hijas/os fuera de la unidad penitenciaria. Los registros de las interaccio­nes verbales, las crónicas de los encuentros, las entrevistas a las participantes y las diver­sas producciones escritas se constituyeron en material imprescindible para comprender el funcionamiento de las situaciones propues­tas, para identificar avances, revisar decisiones considerando las particularidades del contex­to y para incluir las voces de todas/os las/os protagonistas. Los resultados de este trabajo ponen en evidencia cómo mujeres y niñas/os pueden ejercer sus derechos culturales cuan­do tienen oportunidades dentro y fuera de la prisión.

    Description: The educational imagination is the capacity to think critically beyond our located, daily experiences of education. It breaks away from the immediacy of personal understanding by placing education within wider, deeper and longer contexts. Boundaries of the Educational Imagination develops the educational imagination by answering six questions: What happens when we expand continuously outwards from one school to all the schools of the world? What happens if we go inside a school and explore how its material equipment has changed over the past 300 years? What is the smallest educational unit in our brain and how does it allow an almost infinite expansion of knowledge? What is the highest level of individual development we can teach students to aspire towards? What role does education play in a world that is producing more and more complex knowledge increasingly quickly? How do small knowledge elements combine to produce increasingly complex knowledge forms? Each question goes on a journey towards limit points in education so that educational processes can be placed within a bigger framework that allows new possibilities, fresh options and more critical engagement. These questions are then pulled together into a structuring framework enabling the reader to grasp how this complex subject works.

    Description: Education in the Global South faces several key interrelated challenges, for which Open Educational Resources (OER) are seen to be part of the solution. These challenges include: unequal access to education; variable quality of educational resources, teaching, and student performance; and increasing cost and concern about the sustainability of education. The Research on Open Educational Resources for Development (ROER4D) project seeks to build on and contribute to the body of research on how OER can help to improve access, enhance quality and reduce the cost of education in the Global South. This volume examines aspects of educator and student adoption of OER and engagement in Open Educational Practices (OEP) in secondary and tertiary education as well as teacher professional development in 21 countries in South America, Sub-Saharan Africa and South and Southeast Asia. The ROER4D studies and syntheses presented here aim to help inform Open Education advocacy, policy, practice and research in developing countries.

    Description: Los capítulos que componen esta obra atraviesan principalmente dos conceptos clave, “cuerpo” y “educación”, tensionando su relación a partir de pensar los usos y sentidos que se le otorgan en un conjunto de prácticas, saberes y discursos desarrollados en Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia y Uruguay. En este registro, pueden observarse discusiones en torno a los modos de reproducción de lo corporal en la ciudad, análisis sobre políticas públicas sobre salud o espacio público y el lugar de las prácticas corporales, indagaciones históricas sobre cómo la educación del cuerpo ha sido interpretada en diferentes latitudes, reflexiones acerca de los sentidos identitarios que se conjugan en el vínculo entre las sociedades y lo corporal, estudios sobre la alfabetización del cuerpo en los diseños curriculares de los diferentes países sudamericanos, interpelaciones acerca del gobierno de los cuerpos como dispositivo para la educación de las subjetividades, entre otros análisis. La articulación entre temáticas e investigadores que pertenecen a la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, la Universidade Federal de Espirito Santos y la Universidad de Antioquia permitió un conjunto de estrategias colectivas entre 2016 y 2018 que posibilitaron la materialización de este libro, el cual supone la cooperación y vínculo entre los grupos. De esta forma, esta obra registra indagaciones conducidas en el interior de proyectos de cooperación internacional, reuniendo como autores académicos de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia y Uruguay.
