Argumentation and proving in multicultural classes: a linguistic-cultural approach with Chinese students
2009
The paper explores, through different theoretical/experimental investigations, a particular complex field of study such as the analysis of the teaching/learning phases in a multicultural setting in class. Through a linguistic-cultural approach it is a further close examination on the didactic thematic related to a possible comparison between East and West and particularly between Chinese mathematical thought and Italian thought, in some particular aspects related to the phase of argumentation and proving. To carry out the research, we chose to investigate, in a qualitative and quantitative way, the behaviour of Chinese and Italian students of different ages (13-15 years old) attending the S…

Syntactic complexity in Finnish-background EFL learners’ writing at CEFR levels A1–B2
2022
Eurooppalaisen viitekehyksen (EVK) merkitys kielikoulutukselle on lisännyt tutkimusta sen taitotasojen kielellisistä piirteistä; tarkempi tieto näistä piirteistä auttaisi EVK:n soveltamista opetusmateriaalien, kurssien ja arviointin laatimiseen. Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin eroavatko EVK:n tasot toisistaan syntaksin kompleksisuuden perusteella. Suomalaiset 14- ja 17-vuotiaat englannin oppijat (N=379) kirjoittivat kolme kirjoitelmaa, jotka arvioitiin EVK:n taitotasoille. Arviointiaineisto tutkittiin monitahoisella Rasch-analyysillä ja tekstien piirteet selvitettiin automaattisilla analyysiohjelmilla. Tuloksien perusteella alimpia EVK-tasoja (A1–A2) erotti selvimmin toisistaan lauseiden ja T-yk…
Il linguaggio mafioso. Scritto, parlato, non detto
2017

Il punto di partenza è quello che potrebbe essere definito il paradosso del linguaggio mafioso: in che modo un'organizzazione che ha fatto del silenzio la sua cifra identitaria è riuscita a costrui…
WRITTEN REFLECTION AS A “MOVEMENT” IN A QUALITY SERVICE-LEARNING PROCESS
2023
Nowadays, Service Learning (SL) is considered as a form of experiential education. This perspective is based on the recognition and enhancement of experience as an ordering criterion of teaching and learning methods. In these terms, learning offers students the opportunity to experience a deeper understanding of personal competences. Thus, the central element of the SL is the link between personal and interpersonal development with cognitive development and the curricular path. Investing in authentic conditions of subjectivity and consequently promoting the production of significant knowledge towards research parameters encompass the possibility of collaborating and interacting with a plura…

Ricerca educativa in ambienti multiculturali con allievi cinesi: la lingua scritta come ponte per un avvio informale al pensiero algebrico-relazionale
2017
Il contributo, evidenziando l’attuale proble- matica didattica relativa alla multiculturalità nel panorama scolastico nazionale, discute alcuni aspetti chiave della cultura cinese, uti- li ad interpretare il perché di particolari competenze algebriche, evidenziate negli allievi di area confuciana dagli insegnanti di tutti i gradi scolastici, coerenti con le valuta- zioni internazionali PISA e TIMMS. Con questo scopo, il lavoro propone nello specifico una riflessione epistemologica del rapporto tra lingua scritta cinese e avvia- mento informale al pensiero algebrico-rela- zionale e discute i dati sperimentali (di tipo implicativo) di una ricerca-azione condotta in classi di Scuola Primaria c…

2016
This paper focusing on the complex situation of the Italian multiculturalism and trying to reply to why Asian children mathematically outperform students from other countries, discusses from the epistemological point of view, Chinese children’s skills before to start their formal education in Italian educational school context.

In particular many researchers showed that the structure of the Chinese language provides in children a head start in basic math skills, for example to discover, since preschool activities, a pre-alg…
DAL «JOBS ACT» AL «DECRETO DIGNITÀ»: OSSERVAZIONI CRITICHE SULLA PROROGA DEL CONTRATTO A TERMINE
2019
The article analyses the extension of the term in the fixed-term contract in the framework of Legislative Decree n. 81/2015, both before and after the changes enacted by the l. n. 96/2018 (so-called Decreto Dignità, Dignity Decree). It lacks a specific rule concerning the form that the extension’s agreement has to have. Therefore, the author outlines the reasons why the written is required for the validity of such a deal. Moreover, this, especially in the cases where the term’s extension does not require a justification. That conclusion comes from a systematic interpretation of the rules established by the articles 21 ff., of the Legislative Decree no. 81/2015. Consequently, because the wri…
Non solo Platone. Il primato dell'oralità nel retore Alcidamante
2020
Il saggio è dedicato all’orazione Sugli autori dei discorsi scritti o sui sofisti, attribuita al retore Alcidamante, discepolo di Gorgia e attivo in Atene tra il 410 e il 365 a.C. Argomento dell’orazione è il serrato confronto tra due differenti modalità oratorie, l’autoschediazein (“parlare a braccio”) — cui Alcidamente accorda una netta superiorità — e il "gegrammena legein (“pronunciare discorsi scritti”). L’interesse di questo testo (databile con buona approssimazione intorno al 390 a. C) consiste essenzialmente nel rappresentare un punto di vista specificamente retorico sulla questione delle differenze tra scritto e parlato. Nonostante alcune significative convergenze con il ben più ce…
