La Fundación CajaCanarias pone en marcha, a partir del próximo 23 de octubre, la segunda edición de su Foro “Hablemos de Educación”, un espacio abierto al diálogo y la reflexión en el que profesionales y expertos de diferentes disciplinas, implicadas directa e indirectamente en el ámbito docente, comparten conocimientos y experiencias con la intención de ofrecer propuestas inspiradoras, aplicables a cualquier situación comunicativa presente en los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje que tienen lugar en la familia o en el centro educativo. Las tres conferencias programadas para el presente ejercicio tendrán lugar los días 23 de octubre, 19 y 27 de noviembre, dando comienzo todas ellas a partir de las 19:00 horas, en el Espacio Cultural CajaCanarias de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, con entrada libre hasta completar aforo.

El eje central de las jornadas que componen esta nueva edición del Foro “Hablemos de Educación” CajaCanarias es la concepción del aula como comunidad de aprendizaje y en la que todos y todas puedan aprender, participar y obtener logros. Una educación que dé respuesta a la diversidad de manera eficaz y en positivo. Donde el aprendizaje se personaliza y flexibiliza y en el que creatividad, emociones y razonamiento formen parte de un todo que determine de manera más certera el desarrollo integral de nuestros jóvenes.

El Foro “Hablemos de Educación” CajaCanarias 2019 dará comienzo el próximo 23 de octubre (19:00 horas) con la conferencia titulada “Si crees en los sueños, ellos se crearán”, a cargo de Albert Espinosa, reconocido escritor, guionista, autor teatral y director de cine. Espinosa ha escrito los guiones de las películas Planta 4ª, Va a ser que nadie es perfecto, Tu vida en 65′ y Pulseras rojas (adaptada internacionalmente bajo el nombre de Red Band Society en EEUU y Braccialetti Rossi en Italia, además de Alemania, Rusia y un total de 13 países). No me pidas que te bese porque te besaré significó su debut como director cinematográfico, en 2008. Su faceta como escritor comienza con El mundo amarillo, Todo lo que podríamos haber sido tú y yo si no fuéramos tú y yo, hasta llegar a sus Finales que merecen una historia o Lo mejor de ir es volver, novelas traducidas a 23 idiomas y de las que se han vendido más de un millón de ejemplares. El acto será moderado por el periodista tinerfeño Leo Santisteban.

La crisis de la educación es una crisis de la atención. Sin atención, no hay aprendizaje ¿Qué contribuye a mermar la atención? ¿Cuál es el mecanismo de la atención? ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre fascinación pasiva y atención sostenida? ¿Cuáles son los efectos del uso de la tecnología en las edades tempranas? ¿Cómo podemos mejorar la atención de nuestros hijos y alumnos? A estas y otras cuestiones intentará dar respuesta Catherine L’Ecuyer en la segunda sesión del Foro “Hablemos de Educación”, que tendrá lugar el 19 de noviembre (19:00 horas), y será moderado por la periodista Verónica Pavés. Máster por IESE Business School y máster Europeo Oficial de Investigación, la revista suiza Frontier in Human Neuroscience publicó el artículo The Wonder Aproach to Learning, que convierte su tesis en una nueva hipótesis/teoría de aprendizaje.Asimismo, L´Ecuyer ha sido invitada como ponente ante la Comisión de Educación del congreso de los Diputados de España y ha asesorado al Gobierno del Estado de Puebla (México) para una reforma de la educación infantil. Investigadora y autora de varios libros y artículos, entre ellos Educar en el asombro, publicado en ocho idiomas, colabora también, de manera habitual, con el periódico El País.

La tercera y última sesión del Foro “Hablemos de Educación” CajaCanarias 2019 tiene prevista su celebración el próximo 27 de noviembre (19:00 horas) y, bajo el título “Inclusión, comunicación y familia. La escuela como comunidad”, será un espacio abierto a la reflexión y al diálogo, en el que profesionales canarios de referencia actualmente en activo compartirán experiencias docentes innovadoras, con el objetivo de fomentar el uso de nuevos enfoques metodológicos en nuestras aulas. De este modo, tomarán parte la maestra de Educación Especial María Loño; Ana Muñoz, profesora de Lengua Castellana y Literatura en Secundaria y Bachillerato; y el maestro y psicopedagogo Eduardo Gómez.

Whoever said “It’s not about the destination. It’s the journey” never flew on a long haul flight. Those flights can be painful, tiresome, jet-lagging, and not to mention absolutely boring despite whatever Disney movie is playing above you on the TV screen. As someone who has flown from Europe to the USA countless times, I’ve picked up some tips and tricks on flying long haul. Here are my tips.

Bring a scarf or jacket.

A scarf especially can act as a blanket or pillow during your long haul flight. Nowadays it’s becoming less common to have a blanket included on your flight, and sometimes the cabin doesn’t even have enough for everyone. The best advice is to bring something functional just in case because flights can get quite chilly. A relatively thick, large scarf will almost always do the job.

Pack a memory foam neck pillow.

Once again, you want to be comfortable on your flight and no matter if you’re in the window, aisle, or middle seat, a memory foam neck pillow will make it all the more comfortable and relaxing for you.

Tip: Some people are hesitant to pack a neck pillow because of space. But most neck pillows have a snap closure, meaning you can easily snap it onto your carry on handle or strap it to your personal item. When it doubt, you can always wear it around your neck. No shame.

Bring an eye mask for sleeping.

If you’re flying through the day, an eye mask will be extremely helpful in getting some relatively normal shut-eye. If you’re flying on a red eye flight, it’s less necessary, but honestly every little bit helps.

Put headphones and a portable charger in your personal item.

This one is crucial for keeping yourself entertained or productive. Headphones for jamming or listening to podcasts and a portable charger for keeping your mobile devices charged. Sometime flights have the USB port, but you can’t always count on them to be functioning… Yes, I’m serious. Pack headphones, a portable charger, and your cord just in case.

Download podcasts.

Fun, educational entertainment! Podcasts have become one of my favorite pastimes for flying. I just download a few interesting ones before my flight and enjoy them while I’m on board.

Pro Traveler Tip: If you’re traveling somewhere new, I love listening to podcasts about that country or location to start getting inspired and excited about my adventure. You could even download a couple of podcasts that teach you some essential words or phrases in your destination country, too!

Impossibly High Beauty Standards Are Ruining My Self Esteem

Impossibly High Beauty Standards Are Ruining My Self Esteem

In my excitement, I whipped out my iPhone for a photo opportunity the moment I got into my car after leaving the salon. I placed one hand on the steering wheel of my Volkswagen and used the other hand to take the photo. Then I looked at the picture on my phone screen in horror.

On the screen, in high definition and vibrant color, was one giant beefy paw with cheerfully bright nail polish. It was my giant beefy paw. And I didn’t like it one bit.

How could I have believed that a coat of polish would make my large, chubby hands appear less manly? My palms looked so wide. My fingers were thick. And the lines — so many lines everywhere. There were creases on the backs of my hands, creases on my knuckles, creases on my palms. What was happening to me?

In my mind, I remembered hands — other people’s hands — as being perfectly smooth, lineless, flawless, artistic arrangements of elegant fingers and slender palms. My hands were the exact opposite of the hands in my mind’s eye. They weren’t hands; they were anti-hands.

Adjusting to Your Home is no Different than a New Country

I’ve been home from China for nearly three weeks now. While it hasn’t hit me that I’m not going back to China any time soon yet, there’s one thing that both countries have in common. Adjusting to each place can be difficult.

First, there’s the jet lag

There’s a twelve-hour difference between Michigan and China. No matter which country I go to, I have at least two weeks to adjust to time zones.

For both countries, this means I’m in bed insanely early and waking up earlier. If I’m not careful, I look like a zombie for about a week while I adjust.

This means I’ve got to be careful about sitting down anywhere cause at any time, I could fall asleep. The only time I’m okay to be sitting down is when I’m eating. I’ve never been so tired that I’ve fallen asleep while eating. Not yet.

It makes me want to be lazy in my first week I’m in any country. It’s hard to want to do anything when you never know when you’re going to crash.

Then there’s the food

Two countries. Two appetites. Two food cultures. Everything from adjusting to table manners to different kinds of food, I have to re-adjust when I go to both countries.

In America, a lot of the food feels heavy after I eat it, I tend to have a lot of stomachaches after a meal. I’m not sure if it’s what’s being put in the food or the fact there’s way more dairy in the diet than what’s in China. I can taste the sugar with almost every piece of food or drink I consume.
