Formación Docente

La calidad de la formación de los profesores en las Universidades ha sido un debate inacabado entre las autoridades y los académicos debido       a su impacto en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Aprender a enseñar en educación superior no es un camino directo, existen pocas oportunidades para aprender cómo enseñar a este nivel antes de entrar a enseñar directamente. Las Universidades deberían monitorizar hasta qué punto los profesores cumplen con sus funciones docentes y se dedican a mejorar sus habilidades y aptitudes docentes, así como sus actitudes y el compromiso hacia sus estudiantes. Siguiendo la línea de investigación sobre enfoques de aprendizaje (SAL), este estudio atiende a la formación docente analizando el impacto de un breve programa de desarrollo en los enfoques de enseñanza a través del uso de un cuestionario en español (S-ATI-20) que no es sino una revisión y validada versión del Approaches to Teaching Inventory (ATI), así como de otra información de corte cualitativo. El diseño es pre-experimental (pretest-postest) sin grupo de control. Se recogió información de 85 profesores a lo largo de tres cursos académicos consecutivos: 2014-2015      (n = 48), 2015-2016 (n = 22) y 2016-2017 (n = 15). Los resultados muestran que los programas de desarrollo cortos tienen un efecto positivo en los enfoques de enseñanza. Además, los resultados corroboran la estructura  de dos factores del S-ATI-20, distinguiendo entre profesores que al enseñar se centran en el cambio conceptual y el estudiante (CCSF) o en la transmisión de la información y en el profesor (ITTF). Por último, la discusión teórica  del impacto en los enfoques de enseñanza nos anima a (re)pensar la relación entre distintas formas de manejar las responsabilidades docentes. ¿Están los enfoques realmente en un continuo bipolar?, ¿deberíamos pensar en los enfoques como si fuera un modelo basado en una muñeca rusa (matrioshka)?

Learning Issues

This book offers a new perspective on the professional world of higher education. Using social practice theory, it presents a practice sensibility rooted in concepts which illuminate teaching and learning contexts. The book takes the reader through the social processes occurring within higher education institutions which shape contexts and influence the direction of change; for leaders and managers, educational developers, change agents, and academics, this sensibility will help to identify the successful paths to changes for enhancement and the patterns of policy implementation likely to occur as teaching and learning is enhanced. For researchers of higher education, the practice sensibility offers new possibilities for meaningful research into teaching and learning issues. Teaching and learning regimes are a key focus of the book. As a family of practices performed by a workgroup in higher education over extended periods, they comprise a number of ‘moments’—characteristics derived from structural foundations which shape the workgroup’s practices and frameworks of meaning. These moments condition how teaching and learning is fundamentally understood, what its aims are thought to be, what is considered ‘normal’ practice, how individuals see themselves and others, and how power operates within the workgroup. The material context is significant in this, as are the backstories, personal histories, and institutional sagas. This book develops a completely new approach to Trowler’s concept of teaching and learning regimes. Using both his research and that of others in the field, it presents a more nuanced, fully developed, and sophisticated version of the concept which has great traction for empirical research, the management of change, and the enhancement of the student experience and learning outcomes.

Students Attitudes

This research uses the counter-attitudinal essay paradigm ( Janis & King, 1954 ) to test the effects of social actions on social representations. Thus, students wrote either a pro- or a counter-attitudinal essay on Higher Education. Three forms of counter-attitudinal essays were manipulated countering respectively a) students’ attitudes towards higher education; b) peripheral beliefs or c) central beliefs associated with this representation object. After writing the essay, students expressed their attitudes towards higher education and evaluated different beliefs associated with it. The structural status of these beliefs was also assessed by a “calling into question” test ( Flament, 1994a ). Results show that behavior challenging either an attitude or peripheral beliefs induces a rationalization process, giving rise to minor modifications of the representational field. These modifications are only on the social evaluative dimension of the social representation. On the other hand, when the behavior challenges central beliefs, the same rationalization process induces a cognitive restructuring of the representational field, i.e., a structural change in the representation. These results and their implications for the experimental study of representational dynamics are discussed with regard to the two-dimensional model of social representations ( Moliner, 1994 ) and rationalization theory ( Beauvois & Joule, 1996 ).

Social Constructivist Learning

In recent years, providing higher education in the form of work-based learning has become more important in the higher education (HE) policy and practice almost in all EU countries. Work-based learning (WBL) in HE should support the development of competences of self-guided learners and adjust the university education better to the needs of the workplace. The study is based on two pilot projects of WBL in HE in Estonia: Tourism and Restaurant Management professional HE programme and the master’s programme in Business Information Technology. The model of integrative pedagogy, based on the social-constructivist learning theory, is taken as a theoretical foundation for the study. A qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews with the target groups. The data analysis used a horizontal analysis to find cross-cutting themes and identify patterns of actions and connections. It appears, that the challenge for HE is to create better cooperation among stakeholders; the challenge for workplaces is connected with better involvement of students; the challenge for students is to take more initiative and responsibility in communication with workplaces.

This book discusses the local effects of globalisation, especially in the context of social work, health and practical theology, as well as the challenges of higher education in a troubled world. The more globalised the world becomes, the more important local identities are. The global becomes effective in the local sphere. This phenomenon, called ‘glocalisation’ since the 1990s, poses many challenges to people and to the social structures in which they operate.
