The transformations in educational environments due to the immersion of information and communication technologies (ICT) make it necessary to analyze the limits and possibilities of the assessment of the virtual training process. This paper presents an analysis of the meanings of ICT-mediated assessment, establishing what kinds of knowledge are suitable for this type of evaluation, and the challenges and possibilities of virtual tools. For this, we present a systematic review of ICT-mediated evaluation and assessment according to the educational paradigms and their implementation. We highlight that contemporary pedagogical models and their implementation in ICT mediation tools show a trend towards quantitative and summative valuation. The commonly used learning management systems (LMS) include several types of questions oriented to quantitative evaluation, with multiple-choice being the most common. However, new technological approaches like gamification, virtual reality and mobile learning open new assessment possibilities. The ICT educational platforms and new technologies demand new skills for all educational actors, such as digital literacy.
Peacebuilding in transition scenarios is a challenge that societies assume from different perspectives. One approach is educational transformations. This article analyzes Guatemala, El Salvador, and Colombia's experiences in their transition contexts that resulted from negotiation processes and included educational components. We reviewed their educational policies and curriculums and discussed with specialists in education and peace. Implementing a critical analysis of discourses, we seek to identify the relationship between implemented educational policies and the international context, the characteristic of specific educational initiatives, and the senses of education in transition scenarios. As results, we can identify that educational transformation to promote peace and citizenship are build according to the local and global contexts, most of the time omitting sensitive parts of the history. Educational initiatives are relegated to debates related to behaviors, values, and coexistence, but there are few approaches to the past and memory. Public Significance StatementThis study shows how educational guidelines: Norms, public policies, and course offerings are conditions for the establishment of peace processes in contexts of transition in Central America and Latin America. Similarly, as in education, there are disputes over shaping collective understanding matrices different from war; the collective construction of nonviolence is not homogeneous or standard in each of the countries in transition. This study can be a reference to establish public policies that involve the peace education as a central axis to articulate strategies in transition contexts. It allows recognizing lessons learned from the historical experiences of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Colombia.
Se aborda la disputa entre la educación como derecho y la educación como servicio. Esta tensión se concreta en la organización escolar desde la reforma en la legislación los cambios del currículo y de los sistemas de evaluación y las condiciones de trabajo del sujeto docente. La reflexión se orienta por las siguientes preguntas: ¿Cómo la se expresa la disputa por el espacio escolar en tiempos neoliberales?, ¿Qué estrategias se emplean los sectores dominantes para posicionar sus planteamientos? Y ¿cuáles son los conflictos desde los que se puede leer la disputa en la escuela?
La necesidad de ampliar la comprensión de la educación para la paz desde las prácticas docentes y la existencia de un vacío epistemológico en el abordaje de estas prácticas, hacen parte de los hallazgos de la revisión de literatura académica de la que se ocupa este artículo. La información de la producción académica en el tema, que sustenta este texto, corresponde a la última década. Su organización se hace en fichas bibliográficas y matrices de relaciones, las interpretaciones se esbozan en memos analíticos con el propósito de precisar relaciones de educación para la paz y práctica docente. El artículo se estructura en dos partes, la primera enfatiza en las concepciones de la práctica docente y la educación para la paz, mientras la segunda se ocupa de la configuración de estas prácticas en función de la educación para la paz y es allí donde se argumenta la necesidad del giro epistemológico para mejor comprensión del tema. A lo largo del texto se plantean seis retos de las prácticas docentes de educación para la paz desde las que se hilvana la escritura y se pretende argumentar los sentidos del giro epistemológico.
