Author: Coral Elizondo, Octaedro 2021
Summary: This book deals with how to work on the globalising approach to teaching in a liquid world, taking this concept from Bauman. For the author, it is time to commit to an integrated curriculum that allows us to break with the rigidity of disciplines. A book aimed at anyone interested in discovering how the human brain learns.
Author: Gregorio Luri, Ariel 2020
Summary: This book is a perfect analysis of current education to encourage us to return to a school where valuable knowledge and practices supported by evidence are really the axis. If school, as they say, is in crisis, it is not because it is an old institution, but because it has forgotten its noble function: that of reducing, in the shortest possible time and with the greatest possible number of students, the distance between ignorance and powerful knowledge.
Author: Richard Gerver, Bloomsbury Education 2019
Summary: Students need to feel appreciated, valued, to have a higher purpose in life. As educators, we need to be passionate about the future and for the one who can achieve it: our children. We must provide them with the best possible platform to have aspirations in life, to achieve them and to possess a deep sense of values. One of the most powerful features of a successful school is its sense of expectation. The intention of this book is to spark debate and action towards educational change on the part of anyone with an interest in education, who wants to be involved in improving it. Together we can bring about change in education and make it relevant.
Author: Juan Ignacio Pozo, Innovación Educativa SM 2020
Summary: This book reveals the many weaknesses of our education system in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis. We need to learn from this major incident, reflect and generate changes such as selecting a curriculum more in line with a concept of deep learning, consolidating the competency-based approach and moving towards a hybrid school. This text draws some of the lessons from the crisis, detects shortcomings in the education system and proposes to ask ourselves what kind of education we want.
Author: M. Fullan, J. Quinn & J. McEachen, Corwin 2017
Summary: This book defines what deep learning is and addresses the question of how to mobilise complex system-wide change and transform learning for all students. Deep Learning is a global partnership working to transform the role of teachers as enablers who design experiences that build global competencies using real-life problem solving. It supports schools and systems to change the practice and measurement of authentic learning.
Author: Juan Fernández, Plataforma 2022
Summary: It reviews the most common simplifications about education, in order to analyse its nuances and edges. It also reveals its contradictions, shedding light from educational research to bring us closer to reality, admitting that the answers are perhaps more complex and uncertain than we would like. Aimed at education professionals, families and anyone interested in this passionately complex world.
Author: Michael Fullan, Jossey-Bass 2007
Summary: This work is a simply approach to what can be an overwhelming topic. In all organisations and in all sectors, change is inevitable and crucial. Without change, there can be no progress. Effective leaders must be willing and able to react to new trends, developments and attitudes in order for their organisations to thrive. In this way, the author shows how we can achieve the kind of leadership that virtually all organisations need in today’s ever-changing world.
Author: Clayton M. Christensen, McGraw-Hill 2008
Summary: This book addresses one of the most important issues of our time, education, and applying the author’s famous theories of ‘disruptive’ change, uses a wide range of real-life examples. This book offers surprising new ideas, innovative strategies and success stories. It is aimed at schools, government officials, business leaders, parents, teachers or entrepreneurs.
Author: Ken Robinson, Penguin Books 2009
Summary: The Element is the point where natural talent meets personal passion. In this book, the author analyses the conditions for finding the Element. Drawing on the stories of a wide range of people, including Paul McCartney, Matt Groening and Richard Branson, he shows that age and occupation are no barrier and that this is the essential strategy for transforming education, business and communities in the 21st century.
