Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Qué son capaces de hacer los estudiantes y cómo contribuyen a la sociedad como resultado de sus propias experiencias de evaluación? Los objetivos principales de este libro son dos: proporcionar una comprensión teórica sobre por qué la evaluación debería ser entendida en términos de justicia social y avanzar hacia el cambio. Para ello, la autora reflexiona en torno a cinco aspectos clave de la evaluación para alcanzar una mayor justicia social que promueva el pleno desarrollo de profesorado y alumnado: la confianza, la honestidad, la responsabilidad, el perdón y la capacidad de respuesta. La evaluación para el cambio social es una idea que implica riesgo. Sin embargo, no podemos permanecer impasibles, mientras el papel del profesorado se va distorsionando y las convenciones sociales impiden el pleno desarrollo que las experiencias de evaluación deberían ofrecer al alumnado. La fundamentación teórica sobre la que se asienta este libro y los ejemplos concretos nos permiten considerar la evaluación desde una óptica muy diferente. Una lectura imprescindible no solo para el profesorado de educación superior, sino también para los y las estudiantes, para las autoridades académicas y para todas aquellas personas que, de una u otra manera, se relacionan con alguna práctica evaluativa. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condición: New. This book focuses on the relations between social justice and higher education research. Jan McArthur and Paul Ashwin bring together chapters from international researchers that explore these relations in a range of national contexts and consider their implications for policies, pedagogy and our understanding of the roles of graduates in societies. As a whole, the book argues that social justice needs to be more than a topic of higher education research and must also be part of the way that research is undertaken. Social justice must be located in research practices as well as in the issues that are researched.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Assessment for Social Justice takes the established idea of 'assessment for learning' and extends it to consider how assessment contributes to social justice within and through higher education. Jan McArthur invites the reader to rethink familiar positions on assessment and fairness and seeks to explore the full complexity of a critical theory-inspired notion of social justice. She positions her work in contrast to more procedural approaches to social justice, such as John Rawls's influential theorisation of social justice. In contrast, McArthur draws on the work of third generation critical theorist, Axel Honneth, and takes inspiration from Honneth's three realms of mutual recognition in order to reconsider the nature of assessment relationships and practices. A further theoretical strand is introduced in the form of social practice theory, and particularly the work of Theodore Shatzki. McArthur provides a theoretically rigorous understanding of assessment as a social practice, and as a vehicle both for and against social justice. Together with critical theory, this work enables a realizable vision of an alternative approach to assessment in higher education, where the underlying aim is greater social justice. McArthur argues that students must be nurtured to recognise the social contribution that they can make as a result of engaging with knowledge in higher education, rather than defining their achievements in terms of a mark, grade or degree classification.…

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. 2014. x, 275pp. "Our understanding of the purposes of assessment and the nature of assessment practices in higher education has changed markedly over the past forty years. These changes are a response not only to recent developments in our conceptualisations of student learning but also to the demands a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world places on students. This book contains new perspectives on assessment and feedback provided by world renowned researchers on issues that are currently of great interest to both academic managers and teaching staff, as they try to make courses more effective and more appealing at a time when universities compete for incoming students. Rather than simply sharing recent inventions in assessment and feedback, the contributors to this book highlight the linkages between these innovations and new theorising and empirical research on assessment and student learning, thereby offering practices that are not only pioneering but evidence-based." Superficial soiling to edges. Light scratching to boards. Overall a very good copy with no inscriptions.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Rethinking Knowledge within Higher Education argues for a higher education that is neither a romantic idyll of learning for its own sake nor an instrumental institution designed to train a willing workforce for the prevailing economic system. Instead, using analysis informed by critical theorist Theodor Adorno, this book argues that higher education should have social and economic roles at its heart, and that these should encompass the needs of all society. The key to achieving this purpose without privilege lies in the ways in which knowledge is understood and engaged with in higher education. Higher education has a special role in society as a place in which complex, contested and dynamic knowledge is engaged with, challenged and created. The realization of this purpose challenges traditional dichotomies between economic and social purposes, liberal and vocational education, and theory and practice. Jan McArthur shows that by interpreting and adapting some of Adorno's most complex ideas, the nature of knowledge and the pursuit of social justice within higher education is feasible and aspirational.…
