A significant change occurs in a child’s development between the ages of six and nine. He comes out of his individual cell and becomes aware of the environment. This, in turn enables him to reflect upon himself and his environment. This…

The world today is integral and global. Hence, connections between us must become integral and global as well. Such a change is feasible only by educating to globality. Every person in the world must realize that in the new world, we are all interconnected, and hence must be mutually considerate.

An educational-academic institution must be set up in the spirit of mutual understanding and collaboration as promoted by UNESCO, to qualify youths to serve as “Global Educators.” To…

The current state of youths reflects the reality of the 21st century. On the surface, youths today may appear superficial, indifferent, lost in a virtual realm of smartphones and tablets, but the truth of the matter is that they are far more developed than we are. It is a generation that…

What is development?

Until recently, development was conceived narrowly as no more than an increase in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of a country. Such a narrow and limited understanding of development is totally misleading and obscures more than it illuminates.  As we are all probably aware, most African economies have been experiencing steady economic growth over the last five to ten years without corresponding social development.

It is important to know at the same time that individuals are not able to just remain protected from the PC…

Todos sabemos que el contar una historia, realmente permite la movilización de capacidades de aprendizaje, puesto que pone en juego funciones de la mente relacionadas con las emociones, mismas que activan el recuerdo y logran un aprendizaje significativo.  Es por ello que el incluir en los espacios de aprendizaje el esquema de "storytelling" se logra integrar los conocimientos, es decir la información, con los significantes que tienen sentido para el alumno.  No solo este modelo se puede…
