El progreso y bienestar de las sociedades que tenemos por desarrolladas se ha debido, en buena medida, a la sistemática transferencia de conocimiento desde los diversos ámbitos del saber a los sectores productivos, especialmente en la industria, la tecnología y los servicios.Curiosa y paradójicamente, el campo de las Ciencias de la Educación ha permanecido falto de análisis, cuando no bastante invisible, en tal dinámica histórica, pese a las cadenas de valor social, cultural y económico generadas en procesos de investigación, y también de innovación, dentro y fuera de las aulas, para beneficio cognitivo de personas y oportuna proyección de las comunidades.Lo que en este libro se pretende no es otra cosa que reivindicar, con razones de peso epistémico y de neto pragmatismo, la necesidad de entender la transferencia de conocimiento en educación como un asunto de acciones, que han de servir a la formación de profesionales capacitados para seguir aprendiendo y resolver problemas reales en sus entornos de vida.
Kurzinformation ISBN 978-3-9525331-3-0 Titel “Cara o Sello”. Mario Salazar Montero. Cuentos Cualquiera que sea la forma permitida, obligada o seleccionada por hombres y mujeres como el recurso personal válido disponible para dejar atrás el estigma de una pobreza, heredada o impuesta, esta implica una interacción con una realidad en tiempo presente. En esa realidad suramericana, con sus circunstancias inherentes, existe sin embargo una gama bien diversa, tanto de víctimas como de abusadores. El afán de algunos por equilibrar un déficit de bienestar económico recurriendo al crimen no siempre encuentra la mansedumbre de los abusados. Existe la ley tácita del desquite, a falta de una justicia que merezca su nombre. Estos cuentos intentan desentrañar la esencia de algunos desquites y despojos, sin ánimo de definir estereotipos. De eso ya hay bastante, es difícil quitarselos de encima y no sirven más. Mario Salazar Montero. Geboren in Kolumbien, Südamerika. Lebt seit vielen Jahren in der Schweiz. Schriftsteller und Ingenieur. Hat mehrere Romane und Kurzgeschichten veröffentlicht. Spanisch und Deutsch. Mehr zum Autor und seinem literarischen Werk unter www.mariosalazar.ch

La prevención y gestión de los conflictos cotidianos es fácil cuando se dispone de herramientas para el desarrollo de unas relaciones interpersonales seguras y saludables. Las prácticas restaurativas (PR) funcionan porque implican a todas las personas por igual en el mantenimiento del bienestar emocional individual y colectivo. Los Círculos de la palabra consiguen que cada persona se sepa y se sienta apreciada, necesaria, capaz y responsable de contribuir al logro de los objetivos comunes. Se celebran Círculos restaurativos con personas de cualquier edad, desde niños y niñas de tres años hasta adultos e, incluso, se pueden convocar círculos mixtos porque su estructura sigue un ritual bien marcado que genera confianza y seguridad a la hora de conectar unas personas con otras. Además, mediante el uso del guion restaurativo, basado en cinco o seis preguntas, se gestionan los conflictos de manera novedosa, ya que no se busca la sanción sino la reparación del daño producido con el acompañamiento de la comunidad. Esta visión humanizadora de la gestión de los conflictos es muy efectiva porque se ocupa de apoyar a la persona ofendida, de readmitir a la persona ofensora y de fortalecer al grupo. En el libro se desarrollan 20 Círculos, paso a paso, proporcionando ideas, estrategias, actividades e instrumentos que permiten comprender las prácticas restaurativas en profundidad y aplicarlas con seguridad. Finalmente, en el capítulo dedicado a la asamblea en el aula se avanza hacia el cultivo efectivo de la democracia y la paz como vía para alcanzar mayor justicia social.
Peace is an idea, an abstract concept, which must be grounded in concrete realities. And building peace involves moving from an initial state, which may or may not be conflict, to a second moment in which people have learned to know, relate, meet, and live together. This book tries to elaborate on the construction of peace from an educational process, in which individuals learn to recognize themselves as subjects of equal dignity and with the capacity to carry out projects oriented to the common good. Similarly, educational settings, the so-called learning environments, are not confined exclusively to the walls of the classroom or the boundaries of formal education institutions: peace education occurs in any environment in which two or more coincide. people with potential conflicts of interest or collective construction.

No one understands her and she lives constantly bored. In a twist of fate, she arrives in a big city. There she discovers friendship, love, but also who she is. Her father, who disappeared since she was very young, left her some letters to be handed out after her fifteenth birthday. Now, close to being sixteen, not only will she painfully discover what it means to grow older, but also what lies inside her. The horror will appear in her life with each day before that celebration.
