Fortaleciendo la capacidad profesional para mejorar la escolarización del alumnado inmigrante. Una reflexión sobre las actividades de la red Sirius
(2014-04-01) Severiens, Sabine
This paper describes the activities in the area of professional capacity conducted by the European network Sirius on education and migration. The activities include a survey on the state of the art, three peer reviews and a one-day meeting for policy makers. The results of these activities are described and combined with an overview of the research literature on professional capacity in urban schools. Five recommendations are given on the basis of this comparison: develop professional learning communities, improve the teaching and learning environment with a focus on diversity, increase expertise in dealing with language diversity, and organize "open schools" with good quality relationships with parents and communities. It can be expected that the implementation of these five recommendations, adapted to their national context, will improve the educational position of children from a migrant background.

La interculturalidad en el contexto universitario a través de las voces de estudiantes inmigrantes
(2014-04-01) Leiva Olivencia, Juan José
This article aims to highlight some nuances of a study carried out in the Faculty of Sciences of the Education of the University of Malaga, where we intended to make visible the voices of women immigrants from a perspective of interculturality and inclusion. Indeed, while it is true that the phenomenon of immigration on school is a matter treated comprehensively in recent years in our country, as a result of the conceptual development of intercultural education, it seems that it will stay in the formal field of school organization, and in particular, in the educational levels of non-university education. For all these reasons, and in the light of the development of the research project entitled "Management of diversity in community contexts", financed by the DG of migratory policies of the Departament of Employment and Immigration of the Junta de Andalucía, we tried to go and focus our gaze to the study of the process of building identity of immigrant women University as well as studying how to develop interculturality in the university context. The results of this study indicate the need for a greater awareness about cultural interbreeding and the culture of diversity in the university context, as well as the creation of spaces and creative instruments where interculturality can develop in a practical way in the university classroom.

(2014-04-01) Belli, Simone
The aim of this work is to show the complexity of multilingual communicative situations, and how emotions are mixed with new speakers practices and their social environment. In the second place we want to reflect on the impact of linguistic practices, focusing on the effects that have on people in terms of power and social discrimination. These effects are produced through everyday practices and prejudices platitudes building how we will see in the examples. What concerns us mostly of these social practices are the linguistic attitudes how speakers usually have, and are mostly visible in intercultural communication.

La inclusión educativa de la inmigración y la formación intercultural del profesorado
(2014-04-01) Santos Rego, Miguel A.; Cernadas Ríos, Francisco X.; Lorenzo Moledo, María del Mar
The inclusion of individuals from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds has become one of the main challenges of pluralistic and democratic societies. School is one of the nerve centers so that this challenge could be assumed and managed efficiently, both under regulatory provisions and as pedagogical functionality.Thus, teachers' intercultural education is an essential part of organizational and curricular gears focused on acquiring useful skills in a global world. Starting from the basic premise that such training should consider the field of cooperative learning techniques, we conducted an exploratory study with a sample of 368 Early Childhood and Primary teachers (cluster sampling), aimed at the detection of training needs in this field. The study is concluded by requesting, among other improvements, the introduction of contents of intercultural scope in teachers' initial and continuous training, the application of the school as a unit of training activity, and the creation of strategic bonds between universities and the educational administration, keeping in mind the development of intercultural competences from within the educational system.

Emigración global, diversidad y educación para la ciudadanía
(2014-04-01) Banks, James A.
Migration within and across nation-states is a worldwide phenomenon. The movement of peoples across national boundaries is as old as the nation-state itself. However, never before in the history of world has the movement of diverse racial, cultural, ethnic, religious, and language groups within and across nation-states been as numerous and rapid or raised such complex and difficult questions about citizenship, human rights, democracy, and education. Many worldwide trends and developments are challenging the notion of educating students to function in one nation-state. These trends include the ways in which people are moving back and forth across national borders, the rights of movement permitted by the European Union, and the rights codified in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.This article describes how global migration is challenging institutionalized notions of citizenship education, how nation-states are dealing with these challenges, and how citizenship education can be reformed in order to deal effectively with the diversity caused by global migration.

Formación del profesorado en educación intercultural en América Latina. El caso de Chile
(2014-04-01) Quintriqueo Millán, Segundo Enrique; Quilaqueo, Daniel; Lepe-Carrión, Patricio; Riquelme, Enrique; Guitiérrez, Maritza; Peña-Cortés, Fernando
This article aims to analyze the intercultural education and teaching formation in Latin America, specially in Chile. The study of this subject is an analysis of the Team of Senior Researchers of the Research Center in Indigenous and Intercultural Context (CIECII)- "Centro de Investigación en Educación en Contexto Indígena e Intercultural" - part of the Millennium Scientific Initiative (ICM in Spanish) program by the Universidad Católica de Temuco. We uphold the view that interculturality in Latin America had its origin in the dynamic and complex relationships among the different indigenous communities and in the subsequent sociocultural transformations that resulted from the processes of conquest, colonization and constitution of the nation-states. In this context, bilingual intercultural education has been historically aimed at indigenous people, while formal schooling has been conceived mainly as a strategic tool of the nation-states to continue the dominance processes inherited from the colonial time (coloniality), specially in the school institutions. Thus, thinking about interculturality in a critical manner means to conceive it as an ethical, political and epistemological project to be. A project that would transform the foundations that underpin the asymmetries and inequities in our society and that are replicated through formal schooling. We can conclude that, for teaching training, interculturality should seek to build a dialogue among subjects belonging to different societies and cultures in order to counteract the single-lined monoculturalism, to overcome the colonial characteristics of the educational actions, based on teaching practices based on critical awareness, as well as to combat racism and discrimination.

La migración, la discapacidad intelectual y la educación intercultural. Un estudio cualitativo de los jóvenes inmigrantes de origen italiano en Alemania
(2014-04-01) Portera, Agostino
The paper summarizes the results of a qualitative study that aimed to identify the positive outcomes and opportunities, as well as the risks related with migration and living in a multicultural context. Research consisted of a 7-year longitudinal case study, during which the life-stories, conflicts, crises, and problem-solving strategies of 23 young people of Italian origin with migration experiences - some of which were still living in southern Germany and some of which had returned to southern Italy - were observed. The sample was composed of both adolescents with intellectual disabilities or other psychological and social disorders and adolescents who seemed to have benefited from living and growing up in a different culture. The results suggest that education can play an important role in determining whether subjects experience enrichment and growth or increasing difficulties or mental illnesses and social disorders. Therefore the paper takes the position that education can be an effective preventive measure against the mental health issues experienced by young migrants living in complex societies. Given the research results and the ongoing phenomenon of globalization, intercultural education, as developed and applied in a European context, might be the most appropriate method. The paper proposes further research to verify the application of the intercultural approach as a preventive measure against intellectual disabilities and other psychological and social disorders.
