Proyectos y Programas sociales mercosur - 0 views

    Desde comienzos del siglo XXI América Latina experimentó un conjunto de transformaciones políticas, sociales y económicas que le dieron nuevos impulsos al proceso de integración regional. Una característica central de los cambios y mudanzas institucionales fue la crítica, el cuestionamiento y la búsqueda de alternativas a las políticas de ajuste estructural instrumentadas en la región desde la década de los setenta. En efecto, la ofensiva neoliberal había logrado colonizar teórica, política y culturalmente las orientaciones fundamentales en materia de política económica. El MERCOSUR como realidad geoestraté- gica (comercial) emerge en un contexto signado por la hegemonía político-cultural del Consenso de Washington. Desde esta perspectiva, el mercado se convertía en un nuevo principio alocativo que otorgaba prioridades fundamentales al crecimiento económico, la desregulación financiera y la privatización. El Consenso de Washington como paradigma tecno-económico dominante en América Latina no concebía el dise

¿Por qué bienes comunes? - 0 views

  •  
    La libertad es patrimonio de todos y "todos nacemos libres en dignidad y derechos". La libertad es un bien común, como lo es el oxígeno que respiramos, el color de una flor, el sonido de una cascada, el silencio o el murmullo de un bosque, el viento, el cosmos, el pensamiento, la velocidad de la luz o la capa de ozono. En este sentido, el suelo, el subsuelo mineral, el glaciar, el agua, no son recursos naturales sino bienes comunes. Dicho de otro modo, las riquezas que habitan en la tierra no son recursos naturales, son bienes comunes. Referirse a ellos como recursos naturales es la primera forma de apropiación desde el lenguaje. Nadie tiene el derecho a recurrir a un recurso natural, apropiándoselo, enajenándolo. El derecho a recurrir a un recurso natural termina en el mismo instante en que ese recurso es también de otro, de otros. De manera que las riquezas que admiramos de la tierra y que denunciamos como propias en una acción extractiva, no son recursos naturales sino bienes comunes, que pertenecen a los comunes. Bienes y comunes componen un único ecosistema que se verá alterado al recurrir a él de manera posesiva, esgrimiendo una propiedad falsa, arrebatando del sitio a partes o a un todo que desequilibrarán el medio, el que seguramente se verá dañado o irreparablemente modificado, mutado. No aceptamos recurrir al recurso.

Tools for Teaching - Collaborative Learning: Group Work and Study Teams - 0 views

  • Students learn best when they are actively involved in the process. Researchers report that, regardless of the subject matter, students working in small groups tend to learn more of what is taught and retain it longer than when the same content is presented in other instructional formats

Virtual Worlds forum - 0 views

    Virtual Worlds Forum blog Exclusive Report: Tweens and Virtual Worlds Comments [0] | 14 October 2008 Dubit Research has produced an exclusive report for the Virtual Worlds Forum giving key statistics for how tweens use virtual worlds and their attitude towards advertising. Dubit Research, a youth marketing agency, runs a standing panel of 600 7-12 year olds in the UK, and has asked them a series of questions relating to which virtual worlds they use and how they feel about advertising in virtual worlds. The results show that 73% of British 7-12 year olds are using some sort of virtual world. Club Penguin leads the pack with 43%, Habbo following with 27%. There is remarkably little fragmentation in the market: only 8% use a virtual world other than the top 10. What surprised me most about the statistics is how even the gender split is on many virtual worlds - entirely even on Club Penguin, and similar on most other games, although Runescape is, as one would expect, far more popular with boys.

Pop Cosmopolitanism » Introducing the After School MMO Group - 0 views

  • This bridge, we believe, will enhance their success in life and academics, as these literacies are essential components found in the 21st Century Learning Skills (see Partnership for 21st Century Learning Skills for more information), which many schools are still trying to conceptualize, let alone implement. Although we are very early in the pilot program, our first goal has been to develop the MMO group into a “third place” for these boys to hang out and play together. As the group has begun developing cohesion, and the boys are becoming better oriented with the game, we’ve begun integrating content into our sessions that are not only valued “gamer” practices, but promote literacy practices as well (such as writing forum posts, for example).
