A pesar de que los valores fundamentales, tanto de las sociedades democráticas como de los sistemas educativos más reconocidos, se han ido posicionando tradicionalmente en la defensa de una atención educativa centrada en las necesidades de todos y en la individualidad de cada ciudadano, muchas personas siguen encontrando serias dificultades para superar las distintas barreras que impiden su participación y que aumentan su riesgo de exclusión social. En el abordaje de estos obstáculos, las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) pueden adquirir su mayor expresión, mediante el diseño de medios y recursos tecnológicos cada vez más accesibles para atender la diversidad de características, necesidades e intereses que se pueden presentar. En torno a esta cuestión, este libro se ha estructurado en dos partes. En la primera analizamos las posibilidades técnicas y didácticas de accesibilidad que pueden ofrecernos las TIC para potenciar la igualdad social y educativa e identificamos, desde la perspectiva del diseño universal de aprendizaje, algunos principios clave relativos a su diseño. En la segunda parte presentamos una selección de aplicaciones gratuitas para dispositivos móviles que se centran en las principales dificultades asociadas a la diversidad funcional cognitiva: la estimulación cognitiva, los procesos de lectura y escritura, la capacidad de asociación y percepción visoespacial, la memoria, la atención y el razonamiento secuencial.

Thirteen papers by archaeologists from North and South America on the archaeology of coastal Ecuador, Peru, and Chile. The authors have all emphasized comparative approaches to prehispanic societies along the Pacific coast. They give preference neither to high theory nor to case-specific empirical details, but rather attempt to answer theoretically important research questions with appropriate methodologies and empirical datasets--ones that are amenable to a broad comparative view.

Psychologist Sternberg explains the evolution of theories of intelligence and introduces within this historical context his own theory. His theory invokes components of three kinds: metacomponents--processes involved in planning, monitoring, and evaluating problem-solving activities; performance components--lower-order processes put into play to implement commands of the metacomponents; and knowledge acquisition components--activities instrumental in learning how to solve problems. Sternberg defines intelligence as mental self-management and shows how it is used both in day-to-day problem-solving and in the world of executive decisionmaking, and how it can be nurtured at any age. Sternberg criticizes both traditional notions of intelligence and intelligence tests. ISBN 0-670-80364-2: $19.95.
