Summary: We live in a dynamic society, subject to constant changes that affect every sector of our life. Just as happened in his day with the introduction of the written or the appearance of the printing press, the growth of ICT has transformed the way we think and interact and even how to teach and to learn. Education can not be left out of these changes, although the introduction of these new elements as mediators in the process of teaching and learning has changed how to address each element of the teaching model and, of course, has transformed the traditional communication. This is the point we want to affect without forgetting the technical criteria and instrumental-not cease to be important that we look at everything involved in the planning of a training course through the Information Technology and Communication and what so affects the relationship between elements of the teaching model mediator. Based on everything we have said, the objectives of this research could be translated into the following: * Designing a proposal for on-line teaching materials for the development of two subjects covered by the curriculum of Bachelor of Education. * Develop and assess the methodological proposal gathered within a pedagogical model. * Analyze the processes of teaching and learning environments in developed technological training, as part of university education in general and for two subjects object of our study, in particular. * Analyze teaching strategies for the use of ICT as tools for teaching and knowledge of the use and teaching relationship with the elements that give teachers new media. The object of analysis and the objectives previously appointed lead us to identify large sections or elements of analysis necessary for the development of our investigation. These are: * The role of the Teaching and Technology Education. If our purpose lies didactic analysis of the processes of teaching using ICT as tools of transmission, we should not lose referee epistemological that guide us towards how the educational process should be conducted. * The formation based on the Information Technology and Communication. We speak, in this sense, analyze and assess the changes that these media have made the world of education: new scenarios and learning environments, new forms of training, process improvement or innovation, which has resulted in the need to develop new educational approaches , changes in the role of teacher and student, the design and production of materials, evaluation, etc.. * The evaluation of programs. Thirdly, and since we intend to analyze the performance of the training programs based on the network, we must not lose the ideas that will lead us to assess their functioning. The scope of the study subjects were analyzed for General Didactics and Intervention Didactics in Adult Education studies Pedagogy and Social Education. Participants in this study, with various degrees of involvement, the following subjects: * Professional and / or experts in the field of research and / or the application of ICT in teaching and learning processes. The first involved in the validation of the instruments, while the latter focuses its efforts on the analysis of 8 l design 4ee of multimedia material, in the planning of the course. At the same time, two of these experts are actively involved in the development of the course, either as a consultant or as an observer of the educational process. * Students of the courses involved. Their collaboration is focused to understand that they are objects of study and represent the active part of the educational process.

Summary: The main objective of this dissertation entitled Didactics of Simultaneous Interpretation, focuses on the pilot study of the implementation of a system of exercises in the training of simultaneous interpreters and its impact on the development of skills needed for a simultaneous interpretation it still requires extensive research for future consolidation. Simultaneous interpretation given its nature presents the particularity of different processes at least partially overlap in time. That is why we spent the first five chapters of this thesis work at the fundamentals psicolingüsticos and communicative of simultaneous interpretation and in particular to explain the various problems facing professionals simultaneous interpretation addressed by the most various disciplines from nicios study interpretation. In the second chapter, we infer necessary skills and strategies that owns and operates a professional interpreter, and that our students should develop or improve those skills and strategies to achieve in the future successfully overcome at least the exercise of interpretation that allows them to pass the backbone and optional subjects of their training cycle. In our working hypothesis we are primarily that it is possible to develop different skills needed in the process of simultaneous interpretation in isolation and combined with a system of prior specific exercises presented in the third chapter. In this way it may be possible to build a more solid foundation on which to introduce combined exercises in the cabin to finally begin with the exercises themselves simultaneous interpretation. This is because of a research-oriented teaching of the interpretation that seeks to determine the degree of success attributable to the system applied under some circumstances and some constraints in terms of concrete progress in the acquisition of skills. All points of our working hypotheses require a pilot study, results to be evaluated. In the fourth chapter, we present the empirical study that has taken place in the first semester of the academic year 2004-2005, the result of two preliminary studies conducted from 2002 to test the usefulness of the system of exercises described in the previous chapter.

Summary: SCOPE This research addresses the story of a discipline and its professionalization. In sum, the genealogy of a saber-poder. On the one hand examines the invention, gestation, development and progressive institutionalization of a discursive tradition, which comes in discipline: Teaching methodology or the Geography and History, on the other hand, the process of establishing a professional and a profession: the didacta of Social Sciences. The time frame chosen ranging from the origins of the twentieth century, when, taking advantage of the social and political climate of regeneracionismo, is the deployment of science education, until 1970, the date of enactment of the General Law of Education implies the full development of the education of the masses in Spain. Thus, bounded period corresponds with what we have called long transition between modes of education tradicional-elitista and technocratic masses. A periodization complex that helps to explain the late and difficult formation of this saber-poder. There are two major phases in the studied subject: + Stage embryological or preformativa professional in the field of Teaching of the Social Sciences (1900-1939), who, between 1931 and 1939, experienced a first attempt, late of institutionalization. + Step preconstitutiva the professional field (1939-1970). SOURCES AND METHODS There has been a systematic pattern through texts (visible and performativos) contexts, faculty and personalities related to the professional field which is referred to the study. Among the latter are studied in depth to members of the Inspectorate for Education First, Professors Normal School, Primary Teachers managers Groups Catedráticos School graduates and some of Geography and History Institute and University. He also has paid particular attention to the study of the agencies producing speech before and after the civil war, especially: the Board for Extension Studies (JAE) with its institutions and auxiliary (Center for Historical Studies -CEH-, Instituto-Escuela ), the School of Higher Studies of the magisterium, Divisions of Education, universities, the Higher Council for Scientific Research (San Jose Institute of Calasanz) and the Center for Documentation and Guidance Didactics (CEDODEP), among others. It has investigated the formation of the professional field of the Didactics of Social Sciences in connection with the gradual deployment of rationality técnico-burocrática, characteristic of the developed capitalist states. Among the primary sources used include: methodological papers, textbooks and teaching practices schoolchildren, professional journals, memories of pensioners, personal files, echelons, legal texts, and so on. Etc.. MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS * Discusses some unpublished sources or soon enough now studied as Newsletters Pedagogical of Inspections First Provincial Education Schools or magazines like Spain, Avante, Athens, Luggage, Pedagogical Studies, School Life, etc.. * Consideration is being authoritarian, nationalist and filofascista of much thought teaching Spanish from the years 20 and 30. Since it is being tested on an original interpretation of the reconstitution of the Guild of Education (and the Didactics) in the Franco years, in constant dialogue with the tradition earlier. * To be reconstructed biographies professionals over a hundred players in the "golden age" of teaching Spanish; some fairly unknown so far (Adolfo Maillo Rafael Verdier Conception Alfaya, Jose Maria Azpeurrutia). 8 * This t 316 esis can be considered a contribution from the history of education, the study of social production of culture in the twentieth century Spain.
