    "El método del bolígrafo verde que quiere promover el refuerzo positivo en los niños Según la autora, las insatisfacciones que sufrimos en la vida están provocadas por la costumbre de resaltar los errores y no los aciertos Este método busca lo contrario: remarcar lo positivo Pablo Cantó 08/10/2015 - 07:21 CEST En el año 2013, la redactora del blog ruso Real Parents publicó una entrada en la que explicaba cómo enseñaba caligrafía a su hijo marcando con bolígrafo verde sus aciertos en vez de utilizar un boli rojo para remarcar sus errores. Traducido al castellano a finales del pasado mes de septiembre por páginas web como Genial o Rolloid, el método no ha parado de circular por Facebook, alcanzando más de 51.000 compartidos en algunas publicaciones. Tatiana Ivanko, la autora del artículo original, explica que comenzó a aplicar este método para practicar caligrafía con su hija antes de que entrara a la escuela. Con él, la niña se interesaba en cuáles eran las grafías que habían salido mejor y eran las que se esforzaba en repetir. Con el método tradicional de marcar en rojo los errores, la niña hubiera recordado, según Ivanko, "las que se quedaban torcidas, las incorrectas". La autora cuenta que marcando con bolígrafo verde las mejores caligrafías "la fuente de motivación es completamente diferente: ya no intentamos evitar los errores, sino que nos esforzamos por repetir lo que está bien", explica. "Parece lo mismo, pero hay un cambio en la estructura del pensamiento". Según la autora, "desde pequeños nos acostumbramos a concentrarnos en los defectos" y que esto no solo puede afectar al aprendizaje, sino también a la vida adulta. Ivanko resalta que muchos casos de problemas de pareja surgen, básicamente, por esto: "Si de 20 grafías solo hay una que está mal escrita, ¿por qué nos centramos en ella? Con las parejas pasa lo mismo. El cónyuge puede tener 19 cualidades buenas, pero las peleas surgen porque resaltamos justo la ún

What's Wrong With Latin American Early Education - 0 views

    "Back in the 1980s, a group of social workers in Jamaica visited low-income homes one hour a week for two years, bearing age-appropriate toys for the kids and advice on child rearing for the parents. Researchers tracked the outcomes, and a generation later, the results are in. The children whose homes were visited by social workers became adults who earn wages that are 25 percent higher than those earned by peers who had not been visited. Their I.Q.s are an average seven points higher, and they are less likely to resort to crime or suffer from depression. Other studies, including several recent ones in the United States, have shown similar results, contributing to a consensus on the importance of early childhood development that has led governments around the world to increase spending on the first five years of life. In Latin America and the Caribbean, a region of longstanding social and economic inequality, several countries have been especially ambitious. Brazil and Chile doubled the coverage of day care services over the past decade, while in Ecuador they grew sixfold. These investments build on historic gains in child nutrition and health. But while Latin American children are now healthier and more likely to attend preschool, they still lag far behind in learning, particularly in the areas of language and cognition, when compared with their counterparts in wealthy countries. What are we doing wrong? ..."

App para denunciar acoso en colegio de forma anonima | Control Parental de Ta... - 0 views

  •  
    "Cada vez con mayor frecuencia oímos hablar del bullying, un forma de acoso entre niños de la misma edad que tiene lugar en el mismo entorno escolar. Los colegios, sin embargo, rara vez están preparados para enfrentarse a casos de acoso escolar. Una nueva App podría ser la solución de este problema. Se da en el entorno escolar y, sin embargo, uno de los talones de Aquiles de este problema social es precisamente la falta de preparación de los profesores para detectarlo y para enfrentarse a él. Y todo a pesar de la gran cantidad de información que circula sobre el tema. Para paliar este contratiempo nace una App que pretende aliarse con el centro escolar para ayudarlo en la detección del bullying y poder confrontarlo. Stop It se trata de una aplicación informática con la que los centros educativos podrán detectar el bullying y el ciberbullying, creada por Todd Schobel, quien quedó fuertemente conmocionado tras conocer la historia de Amanda Todd y decidió, con esta App, ofrecer una herramienta útil y necesaria para evitar que bullying y, más especialmente por su particular incidencia, ciberbullying, tengan lugar. cp stop it 1 La App tiene un pequeño coste para el colegio pero no para los alumnos de los colegios adscritos al programa antibullying cp stop it 2 Uso fácil, intuitivo y rápido Los expertos en materia de bullying ya ha advertido algunos comportamientos típicos del profesorado que, lejos de ayudar al niño acosado, empeoran su situación. Aunque seguramente estos profesores no alberguen mala intención y se trate de falta de información y protocolo, lo cierto es que desde los colegios es muy frecuente minimizar el problema haciendo la vista gorda o incluso victimizar a la propia víctima, haciéndola sentir culpable del hostigamiento al que se ve ya de por sí sometido el niño acosado. Con Stop It los alumnos podrán reportar los casos de acoso que detecten, y lo harán de forma anónima. Toda la información vertida es organizada a

Teaching climate science & action - the 4-7 year old version - 0 views

    "Teaching climate science & action can seem daunting: for university-level lecturers, teaching to younger children can be quite intimidating. For primary-level teachers, the science and scope can seem too vast and fast changing to cover. For everyone, the content can be overwhelming. As adults, how do we present this topic to children: give them the information they need without crushing them? I decided to face the challenge, and over the course of one rather sleepless night, put together some materials for my 6 year-old son's class. This post summarizes and communicates that experience, in the hope that others can take ideas and inspiration, and will be encouraged to volunteer to teach about climate in primary schools. Teaching and engagement in schools is now part of all of our work, as researchers, academics, parents, activists, advocates, so I hope this idea spreads. The 4-part lesson plan worked quite well: the topics & materials held the children's attention, gave them varied aspects to think about and interact with, and they seemed to come away with deeper understanding. The whole thing took roughly 1 hour. This is doable!"
