Universidad y búsqueda de trabajo entre los ex-alumnos que han cursado los ciclos formativos de "Servicios Socioculturales y a la Comunidad"

Education Reform in Spain, started in the 1980s, has brought about deep changes in Regulated Vocational Training (RVT) which affect the range of degrees offered as well as the curricular organization. However, teachers feel that for the majority of students enrolled for Sociocultural and Community Services, RVT is not nowadays an alternative way to university education. The author analyzes the reasons behind the students' view that RVT is no more than a round way toward a college degree.La Reforma Educativa, iniciada en la década de 1980, ha supuesto una gran transformación de la formación profesional reglada (FPR), tanto en lo que se refiere a los títulos que abarca como a la organización curricular. Sin embargo, para la mayoría de los alumnos de Servicios Socioculturales y a la Comunidad, en opinión de los profesores, no constituye una vía alternativa a la Universidad. En el trabajo se analizan las razones que están detrás del hecho de que los jóvenes consideren la FPR como una vía alternativa para incorporarse a los estudios universitarios

Strategies to Personalize and to Depersonalize Donors When Telling about Genetic/Gestational Origins

What strategies do families who resort to "third-party" reproduction use to deal with donor numbers in stories telling their children and the conversations they have with them on this topic? Families use narratives about the origins that tell their children to build a specific representation of donors, using strategies that vary according to the family model and the type of donation. Few studies deal with the images and representations that families build from donors and transmit to their children through stories about their origins. A qualitative investigation was carried out in Spain between 2013 and 2015 on the dissemination of their genetic or gestational origins to children conceived through assisted reproduction with donors. This article studies families in favor of disclosure who were contacted through associations, blogs, online forums, and the "snowball" method. The analysis has revealed a variety of strategies that parents used in stories with their children regarding reproductive donors.What strategies do families who resort to "third-party" reproduction use to deal with donor numbers in stories telling their children and the conversations they have with them on this topic?
