  • Guidelines for Inclusion and Diversity in Schools
    Inclusion and Diversity in Schools Inclusion and Diversity Guidelines for Inclusion and Diversity in Education Guidelines for Inclusion and Diversity ‘Inclusion and Diversity in Education (INDIE) is a British Council led project aimed at promoting social cohesion and raising educational standards in culturally inclusive schools. It is run in collaboration with local and regional education authorities from nine EU Member States: Belgium, Germany, Greece, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, in Schools Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom. www.britishcouncil.org/INDIE Inclusion and Diversity in Education Guidelines for Inclusion and Diversity in Schools First Published in 2010 by Acknowledgements British Council Martínez Campos 31 The authors would like to warmly thank the young leaders, INDIE co- 28010 Madrid ordinators, headteachers and education officials who developed and implemented the projects and to the co-ordinators and British Council country managers who assisted in collating the examples of best Author: practice on which the guidelines are based. Many examples were sent in. Unfortunately space does not allow us to represent all of the excellent Nargis Rashid (Birmingham City Council) work that has taken place across all of the project countries. The authors take full responsibility for any factual or other errors in reporting the Leon Tikly (University of Bristol) examples. Copy Editor: Mark Levy Note on terminology The terminology relating to inclusion and diversity is complex and @ British Council contested and there are differences in interpretation and meaning both within and between countries. For the sake of simplicity the following terminology has been used: The terms “children from a migrant background”, “children of migrants” and “migrant pupils” is used to refer to the children of all persons living in an EU country where they were not born, irrespective of whether they are third country nationals, citizens of another EU Member State or subsequently became nationals of the host Member State.

  • Número 7. Marzo De 2008.Enlace Externo, Se Abre En Ventana Nueva
    A lo largo de la década de los noventa del siglo pasado un buen número de Institutos de Educación Secundaria celebraron su 150 aniversario. Son los herederos de aquellos primeros institutos creados en muchas provincias españolas a mediados del siglo XIX. A esa efemérides se fueron sumando posteriormente otros centros, celebrando algunos de ellos su centenario o al menos su 75 aniversario. En consecuencia, durante la última década se nos ha convocado a diversas conmemoraciones, en las que se ha recuperado, o al menos reforzado, la memoria histórica de la educación y de sus agentes. Y aunque haya que hacer mención especial a los institutos, no debemos olvidar que son también muchas las escuelas y los colegios que cuentan con una larga vida, no pocas veces centenaria. Todos estos centros constituyen realmente la memoria viva de nuestra historia educativa, aunque en muchas ocasiones pasen desapercibidos para nuestros conciudadanos. Creo que existen varias razones que nos permiten felicitarnos por esas celebraciones. La primera, que sirven para poner de manifi esto la contribución que la educación ha realizado al progreso de la sociedad española, a lo largo del tiempo y en circunstancias históricas no siempre fáciles. La segunda, que nos permiten prestar el obligado reconocimiento público a tantas personas e instituciones que han dado lo mejor de si mismas para asegurar la pervivencia de la educación en el centro de nuestra sociedad. Muchos de estos centros han sido testigos privilegiados del paso del tiempo y depositarios de sus huellas. La mayor parte han atesorado no sólo valiosas experiencias personales y colectivas, sino también algunos de sus restos materiales.

    imdea nanoscience institute nanoscience and nanotechnology: small is different annual report foreword Rodolfo Miranda Director, IMDEA Nanociencia Institute june 2016 annual report annual report annual report As you all know, these past years have been quite tough in many ways, and very painful and difficult for countries like Spain, where public support for Science has seen large cuts. It is therefore just to open this letter recognizing and praising the commitment of our Regional Government in supporting our center despite all odds, through all these problematic circum- stances, and for giving us the certainty that this support will continue and even grow as soon as economic conditions allow it. nanoscience The past 2015 has been an important year for the consolidation and progress of IMDEA Nanociencia as a leading center for multidisciplinary advanced studies at the Nanoscale. New research programs have been created, important equipment has been finally set up and fresh brilliant and striving scientists have joined our teams. In summary, the Institute has continued moving upward in the highly competitive landscape of international Science. Scientific production during 2015 has also reached higher level in terms of both quantity and quality. More than 170 articles have been published, many in some of the most prestigious journals. Likewise, the number of paper citations is over 3500, with a total accumulated of the order of 13220 citations and an institutional h-factor of 53. On the other, the patent funnel continues to get stronger, with 5 patents finally granted. Fundamental research is thriving at IMDEA Nanociencia, as it was well recognized by the International Scientific Advisory Committee in their last report of progress and I am confident that the new evaluation that will be set up in June 2016 will definitively distinguish the sig- nificant scientific successes and infrastructure improvements made by IMDEA.

  • Breathing New Life Into Dormant Academic Heritage in Spanish Universities and Secondary Schools
    60 — VOLUME 9 2017 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Breathing new life into dormant academic heritage in Spanish universities and secondary schools Isabel García, Luis Mayo & María José Gómez Abstract Old and prestigious universities and secondary schools are linked historically, as evidenced by their heritage, which talks about the people and luminaries who studied or taught in their classrooms. A significant scientific and educational heritage created or acquired for the teaching of science and art is present in both contexts. The original use of the heritage may have disappeared, but new interpretations have been generated that enrich its value and extend beyond material existence. The aim is to find current connections between school and university to facilitate the production and sharing of new knowledge through projects that will give life to what is at present a ‘dormant heritage’. 61 — VOLUME 9 2017 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Introduction At the Complutense University in Madrid, Spain, we have recently been working on the connections between the university and the public it serves. We intend to rebuild the educational and cultural landscape of the capital through the study and dissemination of the rich academic heritage preserved in certain educational institutions. There are close parallels in their origin and function between the historical collections in the oldest higher education institutes in Madrid and the ones kept in public universities. When studying the collections and their history, we searched for common ties with the aim of offering a wide and comprehensive view of the history, the objects and their potential. It is usual for institutions to carry out research into their own history and development, but rarely do they connect with other institutions unless there are joint interests.

    Situated in the heart of the capital, near the Plaza Mayor, San Isidro High School holds the honor of IES SAN ISIDRO being the oldest educational center in Spain – A History of Education inheriting a long and rich history from Estudios de la Villa (founded in 1346), the Imperial College (1603) and the Center of Royal Studies (1625), which have all called San Isidro home over the past 600 years. Various academic institutions have passed through San Isidro’s hallways including: the Noble Seminary, Phillip II’s Academy of Mathematics, as well as schools of Architecture, Medicine, Philosophy and Arts. In the past, many important laws and act of educational legislation were written and supported by people associated with San Isidro; and for centuries, this school has played an important part in educating and inspiring numerous students and teachers, who have gone on to become an important part of Spanish history: Lope de Vega, Calderón de la Barca, Francisco Quevedo, Nicolás Salmerón, los hermanos Machado, José Canalejas, Jacinto Benavente, Juan de la Cierva, Eduardo Dato, Pío IES SAN ISIDRO Baroja, Vicente Aleixandre, Camilo José Cela and many others including our King, Juan Carlos I.
