This article explores the affordances, challenges, and imperfections of researching “post”humanizing creativity, by offering two exemplars, sharing how we walk the talk, so to speak, as well as how we have been rewarded and challenged. This is all within the larger umbrella of exploring how a posthumanizing creative approach can expand pedagogical and methodological possibilities for educators, facilitators, environments, and other actants, and ultimately to see how this can disrupt established cultural and educational practice and research to address the challenges of the Anthropocene.

The article describes the use of BYOD technology (Bring Your Own Device) in educational practice using the Lecture Racing mobile application. This application provides feedback between the teacher and students both in the classroom and during distance learning, contributes to the visualization of educational material and, in general, the informatization of the educational process. The purpose of the study is to conduct a theoretical analysis of the current state and prospects for the development of BYOD technology in Russia and abroad, and to test the benefits of using this technology in educational practice using the specific mobile application. During the study, an analysis of scientific, theoretical and practical literature on BYOD technology was carried out. In the process of experimental work, test tasks were the instrument of measuring knowledge and skills of students. As a result of a theoretical analysis and study of the practical possibilities of using BYOD technology (using the Lecture Racing mobile application as an example), it was found that this technology allows you to visualize information that is displayed in real time on the screen of each student's mobile device, regardless of its location. This technology also allows both the student and the teacher to quickly work with information, provide feedback, receive an independent assessment (since the assessment is set automatically), saves time, and develops the information culture of students.

AbstractThe paper presents and analyses two facets of a controversial educational reality, emphasising the presence of this duality also in the military education. A lot of scholars argue that indoctrination is a reprehensible psycho-pedagogical action, because an indoctrinated person is no longer able to think independently. This is the exact opposite of education and ideals of education, which aim to endow people with rationality, autonomy and cultural openness. Other scholars, even some of those mentioned, admit that education necessarily involves a certain dose of indoctrination of young people, in order to ensure the preservation of the values of communities and organizations. In order to be able to function as a unit and fulfill its missions, the military institutions turn to indoctrination to some extent, proposing and imposing values and desirable ways of behaving on its people. This controversial educational practice must be made aware and kept under control in order to prevent major deviations.

El profesor agropecuario en el ejercicio de su profesión, despliega múltiples acciones de su actividad profesional pedagógica en los diferentes contextos de actuación, lo cual exige de una adecuada actualización científico-técnica en la especialidad que enseña, a partir de su encargo social. Esta investigación responde a la necesidad de contribuir al mejoramiento de uno de los problemas actuales de este subsistema: la superación profesional técnica de los profesores agropecuarios de la Educación Técnica y Profesional. En el estudio exploratorio, se constataron debilidades en el proceso de superación profesional técnica que se desarrolla en los centros politécnicos de Pinar del Río y que repercuten en el tratamiento adecuado de esta problemática. La utilización de los métodos de investigación científica: teóricos, empíricos y estadístico-matemáticos, permitieron elaborar una concepción pedagógica fundamentada desde la Educación Avanzada, la Educación de Posgrado y la pedagogía de la Educación Técnica y Profesional. La misma abarca tres componentes que en su dinámica permiten concebir un proceso en correspondencia con las exigencias del subsistema y la agricultura cubana actual. La valoración por criterio de expertos de la concepción pedagógica, su implementación en la práctica educativa y los progresos constatados en los indicadores evaluados, garantizan la validez científica, teórica y práctica de la propuesta. Palabras Clave: superación profesional técnica, profesor agropecuario, educación técnica y profesional ABSTRACT   The agriculture teacher, in the daily activities of his profession, carries out multiple pedagogical actions in different contexts, which demand an appropriate scientific-technical upgrading in the specialty that he is teaching because of his social compromise.This research responds to the need of contributing to the improvement of one of problems in this sub-system:  the technical professional upgrading of agriculture teachers in Technical and Professional Education.  In the exploratory study, weaknesses were verified in the process of professional upgrading developed at polytechnic schools in Pinar Del Río, and that they affect the adequate treatment of the problem.  The utilization of scientific research methods :  theoretical, empirical, statistical-mathematical, made it possible to build up a pedagogical concept  with foundations in Advanced Education, Graduate Education and pedagogy of Technical and Professional Education.  These cover three components that allow the conception of a process in correspondence with the demands of the subsystem and the current Cuban agriculture.    Assessment, by expert criteria on pedagogical conception, its implementation on educational practice, and proven progress of the assessed indicators, guarantee the scientific, theoretical and practical validation of the proposal.   Keywords: technical professional upgrading, agriculture teacher, technical and professional education     Recibido: septiembre de 2015Aprobado: noviembre de 2015
