Teaching based on active methodologies emphasizes the importance of giving students a leading role in the learning process. With the implementation of the European Higher Education Area, universities have undergone a reform that significantly increased student involvement in the teaching–learning process. The University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) responded to this change by introducing its own educational model: IKD i³. The general objective of this research is to explore the effect of the IKD i³ strategy on the teaching staff of the UPV/EHU. The study aims to identify the active methodologies adopted by the teaching staff and the reasons behind the use (or not) of these methodologies. A total of 403 teachers participated in the study, and their opinions were gathered freely to accurately represent their viewpoints. The results reveal that teaching staff at the UPV/EHU utilize active methodologies, with the most frequent being problem-based learning, cooperative learning, and the case study method. The reasons for incorporating these methodologies vary and include both benefits for students and advantages related to teaching, while the rationale for not using active methodologies is based on the lack of training, time constraints, and having a large number of students. Interestingly, the teachers who expressed these arguments were primarily those who were not familiar with or actively participating in the IKD i³ educational model. We believe that while our findings validate the UPV/EHU’s IKD i³ educational model, they also highlight the importance of universities not only having an educational model but also fostering a culture that encourages the active engagement of teaching staff. This commitment is essential to effectively develop and implement such a model.

The first general women’s strikes to demand gender equality in Spain took place on 8 March 2018 and 2019. Both calls were an amazing success, becoming world references for feminism. This research investigates how the strikes were dealt with through Twitter by a Collective Symbolic Coping (CSC) process. Discourses on Twitter were analysed on both years, 4,384 tweets were selected and their content was analysed by lexical analysis. The results from 2018 indicated the CSC phases of 1) awareness; 2) divergence, where feminist demands and the role of men in the strike were debated; and 3) convergence, where the success of the strike was highlighted. However, in 2019 the feminists on Twitter were forced to cope with a great deal of trolling against them. This trolling was maintained in the awareness and divergence phases, making it difficult to reach a convergent discourse regarding the success of the strike. Moreover, the results also demonstrated that there was no reference hashtag in the strikes. It is concluded that discourse on social networks has become a key factor in feminist social mobilizations and that this feminist digital activism will be critical in the continued dissemination of the claims for gender equality in Spain.

El presente artículo propone unas orientaciones para incorporar el Feminismo y las “masculinidades alternativas” en la acción socioeducativa, llevada a cabo por educadores y educadoras sociales en sus diferentes ámbitos de trabajo. A partir de una revisión teórica sobre el concepto de masculinidades alternativas y su importancia para la transformación de las sociedades, este enfoque de género pone al hombre como principal protagonista, en el camino hacia la igualdad. A través de estas líneas reflexivas plantearemos cómo y de qué manera, el modelo de masculinidad hegemónica construido desde el patriarcado crea una diferencia desigualitaria en función del sexo, posicionando a la mujer en una situación de desventaja permanente y ejerciendo consecuencias negativas también para muchos hombres. Ante esto, enfocaremos las masculinidades alternativas como cuestionadoras de ese modelo, ya que su enfoque crítico, y por lo tanto sus propuestas, son indispensables en toda acción encaminada a la transformación social.

This theoretical article addresses the question of the commitment of international educational policy to an inclusive and equitable quality education for all people as a fundamental right. The implemented methodology was a review of publications from international organizations and scientific articles from different reference databases, such as Latindex, Erih and Dialnet, between the years 2010-2020. The selected articles and reports have been categorized by different topics that provided understanding to the field of inclusive education, which has allowed the analysis and the results that are presented hereunder. Firstly, the beginnings and development of Inclusive Education are described, collecting the main milestones related to education as a right and placing special emphasis on those milestones of greatest relevance. Subsequently, the different and complementary perspectives regarding inclusive education have been synthetized and analysed, arguing that there are different causes that foster the development of this right. Thus, an attempt is made to delimit the meaning of inclusion, educational inclusion and/or inclusive education, reaching consensus or agreements endorsed by the literature. Conclusions highlight that inclusive education has to be based on equity and the importance of educational policies being committed to this challenge of guaranteeing an inclusive and equitable education for all people.

La lucha por el derecho a la educación y por una educación inclusiva, que considera la diversidad como valor, cuenta con un desarrollo histórico que está avanzando con el paso del tiempo. Este artículo pretende aclarar dicha evolución mostrando la importancia de entender la relación existente entre la mirada que tiene la sociedad hacia la diversidad y la función de la educación y la escuela en el desafío de garantizar una educación inclusiva, equitativa y de calidad para todas las personas, sin ningún tipo de exclusión; por tanto, nos invita a reflexionar sobre el tipo de sociedad, educación y escuela que deseamos. En este proceso de avance hacia una sociedad y una escuela más justas resulta fundamental comprender la dialéctica entre inclusión y exclusión social, asumiendo un compromiso para avanzar hacia la sociedad y la escuela anheladas.

Este trabajo profundiza en el valor que tiene la colaboración docente en la Educación Superior (ES). A partir de una revisión de la literatura científica internacional, se presentan los resultados de un estudio de caso realizado en un Grado de Educación Social. En él, la creación y establecimiento de equipos docentes en cada cuatrimestre durante cuatro años, ha permitido desvelar las potencialidades de este avance hacia una identidad y cultura docente más colaborativa, pero también las dificultades y condiciones necesarias para transitar hacia ese horizonte. Se discuten los resultados obtenidos con otros estudios e investigaciones realizadas y se concluye afirmando el valor que tiene para la formación universitaria trabajar de modo colaborativo y convergente.
