Courses, seminars, workshops and congresses are planned with the how and even the what in mind, which results in a neglect for the person who will apply the materials and techniques: the teacher. The only moment the teacher is regarded directly happens when the recruiting process takes place and when the follow up/ evaluation of his/ her performance come to happen. Administrators and directors seem to have a profile of the type of professional they want for their institution and select their staff accordingly. The characteristics that are required are mainly based on what kind of tasks the teacher will have to perform in class, and these are influenced by the method and/ or approach to the teaching-learning of English that the institution favours, which is in most cases, Communicative Language Teaching. This research project is carried out with the intention of trying to shed light on the topic and apply its findings in establishing a profile of the characteristics that a language teacher at the tertiary level of instruction in Peru needs to be competent so that the academic authorities of the Universidad de Piura –Campus Lima, where I work, can take action not only by adapting and/ or applying the profile in their recruiting process but also in the planning of induction, refresher and continuing training of the teachers. 1 The teacher influences the classroom climate and thus has a major impact on the students´ motivation and attitude towards learning. In other words, teachers who possess good pedagogical and professional characteristics would not be enough to foster a positive, learnable, and teachable classroom environment. The factors thought to best facilitate student learning are the ones that are described as being purposeful, task- oriented, relaxed, warm, supportive, and with a sense of order and humor in an integrated sense (Kumaravadivelu, 1992). There are other positive factors that help students to learn positively. These include mutual respect and rapport. They all stem from showing to students that the teacher understands, shares, and values their feelings as individuals. A climate like this one fosters students´ learning and motivation and their attitudes toward the learning process. What is more, research suggests, as we have noticed in our research, that certain personality characteristics influence student evaluations of teachers. From their points of view, teachers who are warm, enthusiastic, and extrovert apparently differentiate effective from ineffective teachers. With this in mind, out of three generally accepted characteristics of teachers, that is: professional, pedagogical, and personal, it is the last one that will illuminate the ways of reaching a better learning atmosphere as well as

  • 1 SITUATION/CONTEXT INFORMATION . KEY IMPACTS, NEEDS and RISKS . RESPONSE . UPDATE No 11
    24-30 April 2020 UPDATE No 11 SITUATION/CONTEXT INFORMATION . • Following the extension of the quarantine until 10 may, the Ministry of Education confirmed that distance and virtual learning through a dedicated television channel, radio station and website will continue. The return to school has been postponed indefinitely. Refugee and migrant children are able to access these services and corresponding materials. • On 25 April, Gastón Rodríguez was appointed Minister of Interior. The previous minister and all senior officers of the National Police were dismissed due to their alleged involvement in overvalued purchases in the context of the emergency. Investigations are undergoing accordingly. • On 26 and 27 April, the government announced a new universal bonus of 760 soles to support up to seven million families in poverty or extreme poverty nation-wide. The Minister of Development and Social Inclusion (MIDIS) will activate a platform through which Peruvian families could validate their data to receive the bonus. This assistance is not extended to refugees and migrants. KEY IMPACTS, NEEDS AND RISKS . • There is an increasing need to scale up CBI assistance and to provide food and shelter support as the prolonged duration of the emergency heightens the economic and social vulnerabilities of refugees and migrants from Venezuela. Food insecurity, evictions and lack of affordable housing or shelter continue. RESPONSE . PREPAREDNESS Protection, Education and Shelter • The GTRM is working with the Ministry of Women and Vulnerable Populations (MIMP) to ensure the continuity of virtual and distant case management for gender-based violence (GBV) and child protection cases. Agreements with hotels in Arequipa, Cusco, Lima Tacna and Tumbes were established for alternative accommodation of survivors of GBV and other vulnerable cases.

  • International Tropical Timber Organization
    INTERNATIONAL TROPICAL TIMBER ORGANIZATION ITTO PROJECT PROPOSAL TITLE: STRENGTHENING MANGROVE ECOSYSTEM CONSERVATION IN THE BIOSPHERE RESERVE OF NORTHWESTERN PERU SERIAL NUMBER: PD 601/11 Rev.3 (F) COMMITTEE: REFORESTATION AND FOREST MANAGEMENT SUBMITTED BY: GOVERNMENT OF PERU ORIGINAL LANGUAGE: SPANISH SUMMARY The key problem to be addressed is the “insufficient number of participatory mechanisms for the conservation of mangrove forest ecosystems in the Piura and Tumbes regions (northern Peru)”. Its main causes are: (i) Limited use of legal powers by regional and local governments for the conservation of mangrove ecosystems; ii) low level of forest management and administration for the conservation of mangrove ecosystems; and (iii) limited development of financial sustainability strategies for mangrove forests. These problems in turn lead to low living standards for the communities living in mangrove ecosystem areas and to the loss of biodiversity. In order to address this situation, the specific objective of this project is to “increase the number of participatory mechanisms for mangrove forest protection and conservation in the regions of Tumbes and Piura” with the development objective of “contributing to improving the standard of living of the population in mangrove ecosystem areas in the regions of Tumbes and Piura, Northwest Peru”. In order to achieve these objectives, the following outputs are proposed: 1) Adequate use of legal powers by regional and local governments for the conservation of mangrove forests; 2) Improved level

All rights reserved. Abstract The paradigm of research universities linked to the emergence of university rankings has unified and universalized the criteria relating to the quality of higher education. This situation has led to multiple responses across global society, which has started rating the quality of higher education systems through these rankings, supported by a series of indicators aligned to the characteristics of research universities. Given that the quality of a country’s higher education is one of the fundamental pillars of its development, many countries have started to take government action in this respect. In the case of Peru, the response has been quick, with law 30220 being approved in 2014. It aims to regulate the quality of higher education through a series of specific conditions.
