Interaction and use of technologies in teaching and learning processes
2020
El nuevo escenario de la sociedad del conocimiento y los desafíos de aprendizaje que debe enfrentar la educación en este milenio han sido determinados por la transformación del mundo en las esferas económicas, políticas y culturales. En este artículo analizamos los procesos de interacción que se producen en los contextos educativos cuando las tecnologías son una oportunidad para lograr cambios profundos que contribuyan a mejorar los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje desde nuevos planteamientos pedagógicos y curriculares. Todo ello conlleva una reorganización de los centros educativos, la formación y actualización del profesorado y la colaboración de las familias. Los docentes tienen ante sí…
"Nice, refreshing, excellent that [it] is our corporate language" : a case study on self-efficacy and EFL in a Nordic online trading bank
2017
Englannin kielen merkitys suomalaisessa yhteiskunnassa on kasvanut viime vuosikymmenten aikana nopealla tahdilla. Se näkyy monella eri osa-alueella: niin kulttuurissa, politiikassa kuin työmarkkinoilla. Nykyään englannin kielen osaaminen on edellytys työntekijälle. Moni suomalainen yritys toimii kansainvälisellä tasolla, mikä tarkoittaa, että englannin kielen käyttö on monelle jokapäiväistä. Kielen rooli voi jopa olla suurempi kuin suomen kielen. Kommunikointi ulkomailla sijaitsevien työntekijöiden ja toimistojen välillä, samoin kuin asiakaspalvelu, käydään usein englanniksi. Tämän vuoksi on syytä tutkia, millä tavoin englannin kielen rooli ilmenee yritystasolla ja kuinka työntekijät kokeva…
Coordinated Interpersonal Behaviour in Collective Dance Improvisation: The Aesthetics of Kinaesthetic Togetherness
2018
International audience; Collective dance improvisation (e.g., traditional and social dancing, contact improvisation) is a participatory, relational and embodied art form which eschews standard concepts in aesthetics. We present our ongoing research into the mechanisms underlying the lived experience of "togetherness" associated with such practices. Togetherness in collective dance improvisation is kinaesthetic (based on movement and its perception), and so can be simultaneously addressed from the perspective of the performers and the spectators, and be measured. We utilise these multiple levels of description: the first-person, phenomenological level of personal experiences, the third-perso…
Lo spazio collettivo nei contesti spontanei dell'abitare. La rigenerazione urbana e sociale di Bogotà e Medellììn
Assumendo l’inscindibilità della diade architettura-necessità, la ricerca volge il suo interesse nei confronti della dimensione collettiva dell’abitare, orientandosi specialmente verso quei contesti urbani e sociali emblematici laddove, alle trasformazioni indotte dall’evolversi della vita stessa, si sovrappongono problematiche incrinanti la possibilità di un vivere felice. In tali contesti più urgenti e bisognosi, l’architettura è concepita quale risposta concreta all’imprescindibile bisogno di abitare, e si rivela uno strumento capace di migliorare la qualità di vita della collettività, garantendo il bene comune ed incrementando il capitale sociale. Gli spazi collettivi, ritenuti la rispo…

UNSUSTAINABLE LIVING. Recovery and reintegration of degraded environments
2012
Building abusiveness contributed to the progressive worsening of urban conditions and environmental crisis, generating a soil uncontrolled consumption, territory’s exploiting, bigger pollution indexes, besides the absence of building quality, levelling of languages and life models, alteration of recognising and territory belonging values, urban and extra urban landscape levelling. Building abusiveness is clearly a territorial emergency which needs technical owning to formulate sudden and effective intervention strategies. The fight against building abusiveness is still today a challenge for both environment and territory. The present volume investigates the issue of environmental decay dete…
A uniform quantificational logic for algebraic notions ofcontext
2002
A quantificational framework of formal reasoning is proposed, which emphasises the pattern of entering and exiting context. Contexts are modelled by an algebraic structure which reflects the order and manner in which context is entered into and exited from. The equations of the algebra partitions context terms into equivalence classes. A formal semantics is defined, containing models that map equivalence classes of certain context terms to sets of first order structures. The corresponding Hilbert system incorporates the algebraic equations as axioms asserted in context. In this way a uniform logic for arbitrary algebras of context is obtained. Soundness and completeness are proved. In semig…
Redefining habits and linking habits with other implicit processes
2019
In their commentaries on Hagger (2019), Gardner, Rebar, and Lally (2019) and Phillips (2019) provide welcome debate on the conceptualization and operation of habits in physical activity. In this response, I extend their comments by (i) calling for a redefining of habits to encompass contemporary views of habit, and (ii) suggesting that descriptions of physical activity habits should make reference to their relations with other implicit constructs that reflect automatic processes. Specifically, I contend that extant definitions of habits for complex behaviors like physical activity should move away from definitions of unitary responses to specific cues or contexts, and, focus on ‘macro’ expr…
Scultura ellenistica e paesaggio urbano: i casi di Tindari e Solunto
2019
The archaeological evidence provides us with significant clues about the role of the sculptural display in the urban space during the Hellenistic period. The paper focuses on two study cases from Tindari and Solunto respectively. Thanks to the investigation of overlooked archival documents and historiography, it has been possible to single out the monumental contexts of the sculptures. It is now quite certain that the two marble Nikai from Tyndaris come from the mid-19th century excavation at the theatre, perhaps from the paraskenia of the huge late Hellenistic scene building. The second part deals with the so-called Zeus of Solunto, its extant pieces and the puzzling remains of the sacred …
