La Participación de las Minorías Nacionales dentro de Sistemas Educativos Pre-Modernos: El Caso de los Garífunas de Guatemala Carlos R. Ruano Universidad de La Salle

Specifically, the case of the Garífuna population on the Atlantic Coast is studied with a view to understanding the educational policy dynamics underlying Pre-Modern States towards the multicultural groups\u27 lack of participation and incorporation into the national polity. Lastly, the specific educational claims of the Garífunas are studied, particularly in relation to Guatemala\u27s other linguistic blocks, namely, Mayan and Spanish language speakers

Through Silence We Speak: Approaches to Counselling and Psychotherapy with Canadian First Nation Clients

Their key forces involve a sense of community, respect for elders, and deep values and religious beliefs promoting growth. Counselling issues include assimilation, post-traumatic stress, addictions, cultural identification, health, and issues caused by societal rupture. Non-Native counsellors may be seen as unhelpful or even potentially harmful to community strengths. Counselling methods need to be based on deep respect, benefit to the community, spirituality, and values. Skills include listening in a way that gives meaning to both verbal and nonverbal messages, growth from one's own hardships, and being helpful versus using technique. .

Más allá de la evaluación por resultados: planteamientos metodológicos en torno al proceso de autoanálisis institucional y la construcción de indicadores de la calidad educativa en el contexto universitario

En este artículo se abordan diferentes enfoques de carácter metodológico que permiten dotar a la agenda de aprendizaje-investigación-enseñanza en las universidades con las herramientas adecuadas para lograr el desarrollo de indicadores contextualizados y mensurables con criterios cualitativos.

Specifically, how bilingual education is defined and implemented in the private education sector in Guatemala City where the largest number of privately run establishments exist. Given the great deficits in the provision of educational coverage in the public sector, there has been an explosive expansion of private institutions which have very different levels of quality. Through an analysis of the administrative processes within the Guatemalan Government in general and its Education Ministry in particular as well as of the governance arrangements existing in the private school sector, an overall view of the curricular and policy decisions taken by private schools in the formulation and implementation of bilingual education is presented. This study was based on a sample of six private schools which cater to higher income segments of Guatemala City's student population. Some of the relevant findings of this study include, the existence of a situation of quasi autonomous institutional functioning of the private sector, extreme differentials in the quality of services provided, inadequate levels of teacher and school administrator's training as well as lack of cooperation between public and private sector schools.

Reforma educativa en sistemas administrativos con características premodernas: el caso de Guatemala (Educational Reform in Administrative Systems with Pre-Modern traits: The Guatemalan case.

The purpose is to throw into relief those aspects which should be confronted in designing and implementing processes of educational reform in the context of weak nations with pre-modern features. One of these fundamental aspects is the need to study carefully the administrative and power structures within the government, with the aim of locating the channels of real and nominal decision-making. It is also argued that the principle of parallel liberty allows an understanding of the formation and reinforcement of parallel power structures, and that these are found outside the official bureaucratic channels. It is further argued that the administration and formulation of educational policies cannot be summed up in simple modernization schemes that do not take into account the particular sociohistorical conditions in which the educational systems originated.
