Lo eterno sin disimulo
by C. S. LewisLo eterno sin disimulo, es una recopilación de nueve ensayos y varias cartas anteriormente publicados en los que Lewis hace un despliegue de su capacidad para razonar con rigor y escribir con lucidez sobre el cristianismo.Hablar de lo eterno, sin caretas, sin disimulos, sin trampas, esa es la tarea a la que se entrega Lewis en este libro sustancioso. Y para ello utiliza muy distintos medios: una conferencia docta, un coloquio, un debate, una conversación entre amigos, un artículo de prensa, una carta...Toda ocasión es buena para dar testimonio de la fe y la verdad intemporal, "para mostrar a todos una noticia inaudita de plenitudes", con un afán apostólico que nos interpela. Y Lewis lo aborda con su proverbial claridad, lucidez y agudeza.Timeless at HeartTimeless at Heart, is a compilation of nine essays and several letters previously published in which Lewis displays his ability to reason rigorously and write lucidly about Christianity.Talking about the eternal, without masks, without dissimulation, without traps, that is the task to which Lewis gives himself in this substantial book. And for this he uses very different means: a learned conference, a colloquium, a debate, a conversation between friends, a press article, a letter...Every occasion is a good one to bear witness to the faith and the timeless truth, "to show everyone unprecedented news of fullness", with an apostolic eagerness that challenges us. And Lewis approaches it with his proverbial clarity, lucidity, and sharpness.

Lo que sucederá después: Una guía para el viajero a través del fin de los tiempos
by Max Lucado¿Estamos viviendo el final de los tiempos? Si es así, ¿qué significa eso para mí? La guía optimista, accesible y no sensacionalista de Max Lucado sobre lo que dice la Biblia acerca de la línea temporal del cielo capacitará a los lectores para afrontar el futuro con fe.Siete años de caos llamados la Tribulación. Un Anticristo cruel y astuto. La temida batalla de Armagedón. Estas imágenes e ideas asociadas a la profecía pueden ser estimulantes, pero también innecesariamente aterradoras. Max Lucado cree que Dios quiere que estemos preparados, no asustados. En su primer libro que explora el final de esta era, Max ofrece una visión sabia, bien documentada y tranquilizadora de lo que la Palabra de Dios tiene que decir sobre un tema que a menudo crea confusión y ansiedad.Max explora cuatro grandes ideas que proporcionarán una base sólida para comprender los planes de Dios y nos recordarán que nos dirigimos a un lugar mucho mejor que aquel en el que empezamos. Explica quefuimos creados para reinar con Cristo;Dios ha hecho y cumplirá sus promesasel cielo tiene un calendario; ya los hijos de Dios les espera una era dorada, el milenio.En un mundo lleno de tensiones políticas, pruebas personales y turbulencias internacionales, nos sentimos atraídos por explorar qué ocurre a continuación en la línea temporal del cielo. Tanto si los lectores se encuentran en el bando de «no puedo esperar», «estoy casi preparado» o «no estoy seguro de todo esto», se sentirán animados a reflexionar sobre los planes y promesas de Dios para el futuro. Con el característico estilo alentador de Max, nos recuerda: «Todo es cuestión de esperanza. Todo gira en torno a Él».What Happens NextAre we living in the end times? If so, what does that mean for me? Max Lucado's optimistic, accessible, and non-sensational guide to what the Bible says about heaven's timeline will empower readers to face the future with faith.Seven years of chaos called the Tribulation. A cruel and cunning Antichrist. The dreaded battle of Armageddon. These images and ideas associated with prophecy can be stimulating but also unnecessarily scary. Max Lucado believes God wants us to be prepared, not scared. In his first book exploring the end of this age, Max provides a wise, well-researched, and reassuring overview of what God's Word has to say on a topic that often creates confusion and anxiety.Max explores four big ideas that will provide a solid foundation for understanding God's plans and will remind us that we are headed to a far better place than where we started. He explains thatwe were made to reign with Christ; God has made and will keep his promises; heaven has a timeline; and a golden era, the millennium, awaits God's children. In a world filled with political tension, personal trials, and international turbulence, we find ourselves drawn to exploring what happens next on heaven's timeline. Whether readers find themselves in the "I can't wait," "I'm almost ready," or "I'm not sure about all of this" camp, they will be encouraged to ponder God's plans and promises for the future. In Max's signature encouraging style, he reminds us, "It's all about hope. It's all about him."

Solemos asociar la tecnología a los últimos gadgets electrónicos que, para bien o para mal, han colonizado nuestro día a día. Uno de los mayores horrores de la vida contemporánea es quedarse sin batería o sin conexión, como si nos perdiéramos en una dimensión desconocida de la realidad, lejos del mundo y de nuestros congéneres. Pero la tecnología es una cosa mucho más amplia. Y mucho más antigua.Un día muy lejano, hace decenas de miles de años, un homínido cualquiera chocó una piedra contra otra y creó un cuchillo de sílex. Con aquel primate comienza este viaje: el de la historia de la tecnología en los albores de nuestra especie. Y sin necesidad de wifi ni de un enchufe. Desde entonces, la humanidad ha recorrido un apasionante camino, desde la invención del plástico hasta la exploración espacial, que juntos vamos a conocer a través de los descubrimientos tecnológicos que modificaron el rumbo de la historia.David Calle es licenciado en ingeniería de sistemas de telecomunicación.

Lob der Vorlesung: Vorschläge zur Verständigung über Form, Funktion und Ziele universitärer Lehre (Doing Higher Education)
by Rudolf Egger Balthasar EugsterDas Buch klärt, wie eine hochschul- und wissenschaftsdidaktisch schlüssige Verbindung von Lehren und Lernen, Lehr- und Lernhandlungen aussehen sollte, und welche Rolle die Vorlesung in ihren verschiedenen Ausprägungen hierbei spielen kann. Die aufeinander abgestimmten Beiträge versuchen dabei – in einer dezidierten Gegenbewegung zu technokratischen, aktivistischen und postulatorischen Ansätzen der Hochschuldidaktik – die derzeit dominierenden Spannungsverhältnisse in diesem Bereich aufzugreifen, zu untersuchen und begrifflich wie empirisch gehaltvoll auszuleuchten. Es wird der Blick daraufhin geschärft, wie im Format „Vorlesung“ das Lehren einen zentralen Stellenwert erhält und in seiner Beziehung zum Lernen akzentuiert werden kann, ohne die Parolen eines „shift from teaching to learning“ unhinterfragt aufzunehmen.

L'OBSERVATEUR DE LA GENÈSE - Du récit poétique à l'explication scientifique
by Sophia Bisstouane Alberto CanenPlus de 300 000 livres vendus en anglais et en espagnol. La Genèse, les 7 jours, la Création... D'où provient le texte qui compose la première partie de la Bible ? Le texte de la Genèse n’est-il qu’un poème d'introduction... ou serait-ce un récit ? Qu'il y a-t-il derrière les mots de la Genèse ? Alberto Canen a trouvé une voie alternative pour répondre à ces questions et à d'autres, également contenues dans la Genèse. Il a trouvé un itinéraire que personne n’avait encore jamais suivi jusqu'ici. Il invite le lecteur à parcourir cet itinéraire et à prendre conscience avec lui de ses découvertes. L'auteur a découvert que, caché au fond de l'intrigue, il y avait quelqu'un. Quelqu'un qui observe, quelqu'un qui raconte, quelqu'un qui raconte ce qu'il observe. Et un emplacement, le lieu d’où il observe. La localisation de l'observateur. La clé d'un puzzle passionnant. La Genèse a été un mystère pendant des milliers d'années. Il était impossible de comprendre de quoi parlait le texte. S’il ne s’agissait que d’un poème d'introduction aux Saintes Écritures, ou s'il contenait réellement des informations sur la Création. Le texte de la Genèse a divisé les créationnistes et les scientifiques, durant très longtemps et cela jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Avec ce livre, j'espère que cette séparation entre scientifiques et créationnistes se diluera grâce à ma découverte de la clé unissant ces deux mondes. Je crois que la clé du mystère de la Genèse est de comprendre qu'elle est racontée par quelqu'un, un narrateur de la Genèse. Celui qui observe la vision que Dieu lui a confiée et qui à partir de là, raconte ce qu'il observe et il observe cela depuis une localisation humaine et terrestre. Cet endroit terrestre et précis est la clé pour comprendre la Genèse.

Local Citizenship in the Global Arena: Educating for community participation and change (Routledge Research in Education Policy and Politics)
by Sally FindlowLocal Citizenship in the Global Arena proposes a reconsideration of both citizenship and citizenship education, moving away equally from prevailing ‘global citizenship’ and ‘fundamental British values’ approaches towards a curriculum for education that is essentially about creating cosmopolitan, included and inclusive, politically-engaged citizens of communities local, national and global. Viewing education as both problem and solution, Findlow argues that today’s climate of rapid and unpredictable geopolitical and cultural re-scoping requires an approach to citizenship education that both reflects and shapes society, paying attention to relationships between the local and global aspects of political voice, equality and community. Drawing on a range of international examples, she explores the importance and possibilities of a form of education that instead of promoting divisive competition, educates about citizenship in its various forms, and encourages the sorts of open and radical thinking that can help young people cross ideological and physical borders and use their voice in line with their own, and others’, real, long-term interests. Successive chapters develop this argument by critically examining the key elements of citizenship discourses through the interrelated lenses of geopolitical change, nationalism, the competition fetish, critical pedagogy, multiculturalism, protest politics, feminism and ecology, and highlighting ways in which the situationally diverse lived realities of ‘citizenship’ have been mediated by different forms of education. The book draws attention to how we think of education’s place in a world of combined globalisation, localism, anti-state revolt and xenophobia. It will be of key interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of education, political science, philosophy, sociology, social policy, cultural studies and anthropology.
Local Civics with National Purpose: Civic Education Origins at Shortridge High School (Historical Studies in Education)
by J. Spencer ClarkThis book examines the development of civic education in the United States through the lives of two teachers at Shortridge High School (SHS) in Indianapolis around 1900. After situating civic education at the turn-of-the-century, the book describes the career of Laura Donnan—her influences, teaching, extracurriculars, and civic life—through the lens of her unique epistemology, shaped by negotiating the gendered ideologies of her era. Then, the book re-examines Arthur W. Dunn’s career, focusing on his ten years at SHS, and the influence of Donnan on his popular community civics curriculum and subsequently the 1916 report “The Social Studies in Secondary Education.” Previous scholars have overlooked Dunn’s time at SHS, viewing it simply as a stepping stone for the progressive educator’s career. This book argues that Dunn’s time at SHS was pivotal to his career due to influential colleagues, primarily Donnan. To conclude, Clark discusses the implications of Donnan’s epistemology in shaping civic education in the United States.
Local Color: Seeing Place Through Watercolor
by Mimi RobinsonWhenever we first encounter a new place, whether landscape or cityscape, one of the most immediate and powerful sensations comes from its colors, or the palette of colors, which profoundly influence our reaction to and sense of a space. In Local Color, designer and educator Mimi Robinson teaches us not only how to see the colors around us but also how to capture and record them in watercolor. Regardless of your level of expertise, Robinson will quickly have you creating personal memories of time, travel, and place through a series of self-guided exercises and illustrated examples.
Local Drivers for Improvement Capacity
by Ulf Blossing Torgeir Nyen Åsa Söderström Anna Hagen TønderThis book presents systematically six types of schools, with different improvement capacities. Different schools have different capacities for school improvement, depending on the school infrastructure, norms and routines for the improvement process, improvement roles, and improvement history. The organisation of the improvement capacity is understood on the basis of sensemaking processes among teachers and school leaders. The book focuses on the challenges for each type of school in their improvement work, and which situations and circumstances they need to take into account. The school types are illustrated with detailed descriptions of six schools, coming from an evaluation of a Norwegian school development program. The book fills a need in school organisations to have concrete illustrations from similar schools of how teacher teams are organised, how leadership is exercised and processes are organised in their efforts of improving the organisation and building a complex and effective capacity. Schools' improvement capacity has become an important feature in school management and leadership as well as in research as western states have decentralised governance to the local level. The expectations on school leaders as well as on teachers are high when it comes to improve their schools to raise student outcome. Accounts of professional school cultures and professional learning communities often describe in an overall perspective the ideal school where such an improvement capacity is in work. However, accounts of the many ways of organising the capacity which perhaps are not all in all ideal or effective also contribute to the knowledge of the local school process.
