Education in Mexico, Central America and the Latin Caribbean examines the development and practice of education in Mexico, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama. The chapters, written by local experts, provide an overview of the structure, aims and purposes of education in each of these ten countries with very different socio-economic backgrounds.
 The authors present curriculum standards, pedagogy, evaluation, accountability and delivery, discussing both how the formal systems are structured and how they actually function. The volume explores the origins of proposed reforms and their implementation, emphasising the distinctiveness of each country and attempting to locate new practices that could lead to better education.

Street art

STREET ART  Street art in Mexico always represents something of Mexican culture, in the image can be seen represented an Alebrije. This ones was created in 1936 by a cardboard man named Pedro Linares López, at 30 years of age. His inspiration came after getting sick and falling into a deep sleep, where he saw these creatures for the first time. During his illness, it is said that Pedro dreamed of a forest full of trees, rocks and animals, being very peaceful. Suddenly, those elements began to transform into strange creatures, like donkeys with wings, roosters with bull horns, lions with dog heads, and so on. And all those fantastic animals shouted a word in unison and every time stronger: alebrijes. If you want to read more about this story click here.

Mas luego mis hormigas me negarán su abrazo y han de huir de mis pobres y trabajados dedos cual se olvida en la arena un gélido bagazo; y tu boca, que es cifra de eróticos denuedos, tu boca, que es mi rúbrica, mi manjar y mi adorno, tu boca, en que la lengua vibra asomada al mundo ...

Reflecting on Basic Art Education in Aguascalientes, Mexico. Implications for Higher Education

Reflecting on Basic Art Education in Aguascalientes, Mexico. Implications for Higher Education The basic art education in Aguascalientes, Mexico, faces a significant number of challenges that must be overcome and problems that must be addressed. Among other challenges, the public education system must train a high number of teachers who lack professional qualifications. The system also has to promote the training of its whole teaching staff and satisfy the demand for sufficient pedagogical materials. Thus, the author proposes that higher education must actively get involved with basic education by implementing remedial programs for unqualified teachers. It also must propose continuous education programs to foster a better preparation of the teaching staff and develop research projects that generate knowledge to promote more comprehensive and better-quality art education. The contributions made to the improvement of art education will impact on more sensitive, creative and harmonio...
