Procedures for learning management in methodological support

Methodological work in the Cuban context constitutes for managers and teachers a space for innovation par excellence. The procedures proposed in this book are an innovative expression in the permanent search for a way of working by the management structures, and have been created in the research generated by the Research and Development Project for the Professionalization of Teachers in Learning Management in the Santiaguero Context (PRODOGESANTIAGO). In the book, an important place is occupied by the defense of the idea that methodological work is a component of the process of permanent teacher training, which, together with academic and post-graduation improvement, make up a system of influences for the professionalization of teachers. It emphasizes on the relations between managers and teachers to argue the work of management as an activity essentially for the training of those involved in the pedagogical process. Within the framework of educational reforms in Cuba, it is argued that changes in curricula, textbooks and subject programs must be accompanied by a new conception and preparation of teachers and managers.
