La repentina aparición de la pandemia producida por la COVID-19 a principios del año 2020 obligó a los centros educativos a acelerar, comenzar en algunos casos, una necesaria transformación digital en todos sus procesos, principalmente en el educativo. Dicha transformación debe ser más que una simple digitalización; conlleva también un análisis sobre hasta qué punto las tecnologías pueden transformar los procesos o llegar a cambiarlos completamente. En el contexto docente, esto requiere replantear o adaptar las metodologías, los contenidos, los procesos de evaluación, e incluso las tutorías. Ahora bien, esta evolución o transformación digital docente no empieza de cero: son muchas las experiencias y buenas prácticas docentes que se vienen realizando durante los últimos años, en algunos casos de una forma coordinada y planificada y, de manera más habitual, a través de iniciativas individuales. El principal objetivo de la presente publicación es recoger algunas de estas experiencias docentes en el ámbito hispanoamericano, principalmente, aunque no solo, en educación superior. Deseamos de este modo llegar a toda la comunidad educativa interesada en las acciones de innovación educativa en entornos enriquecidos con tecnologías del aprendizaje y la comunicación.

This book is about the role and potential of using digital technology in designing teaching and learning tasks in the mathematics classroom. Digital technology has opened up different new educational spaces for the mathematics classroom in the past few decades and, as technology is constantly evolving, novel ideas and approaches are brewing to enrich these spaces with diverse didactical flavors. A key issue is always how technology can, or cannot, play epistemic and pedagogic roles in the mathematics classroom. The main purpose of this book is to explore mathematics task design when digital technology is part of the teaching and learning environment. What features of the technology used can be capitalized upon to design tasks that transform learners’ experiential knowledge, gained from using the technology, into conceptual mathematical knowledge? When do digital environments actually bring an essential (educationally, speaking) new dimension to classroom activities? What are some pragmatic and semiotic values of the technology used? These are some of the concerns addressed in the book by expert scholars in this area of research in mathematics education. This volume is the first devoted entirely to issues on designing mathematical tasks in digital teaching and learning environments, outlining different current research scenarios.

In this 1994 classic work on student retention, Vincent Tinto synthesizes far-ranging research on student attrition and on actions institutions can and should take to reduce it. The key to effective retention, Tinto demonstrates, is in a strong commitment to quality education and the building of a strong sense of inclusive educational and social community on campus. He applies his theory of student departure to the experiences of minority, adult, and graduate students, and to the situation facing commuting institutions and two-year colleges. Especially critical to Tinto’s model is the central importance of the classroom experience and the role of multiple college communities.

Phosphorus in Environmental Technology: Principles and Applications, provides a definitive and detailed presentation of state-of-the-art knowledge on the environmental behaviour of phosphorus and its applications to the treatment of waters and soils. Special attention is given to phosphorus removal for recovery technologies, a concept that has emerged over the past 5-6 years. The book features an all-encompassing approach: the fundamental science of phosphorus (chemistry, geochemistry, mineralogy, biology), key aspects of its environmental behaviour and mobility, industrial applications (treatment, removal, recovery) and the principles behind such applications, novel biotechnologies and, importantly, it also addresses socio-economic issues which often influence implementation and the ultimate success of any new technology. A detailed subject index helps the reader to find their way through the different scientific and technological aspects covered, making it an invaluable reference work for students, professionals and consultants dealing with phosphorus-related environmental technologies. State-of-the-art knowledge on the behaviour of phosphorus and its applications to environmental science and technology. Covers all aspects of phosphorus in the environment, engineered and biological systems; an interdisciplinary text.
