Hospital pedagogy. An unfinished business in the university training of education professionals
2019
La pedagogía hospitalaria se desarrolla donde hay alumnado enfermo, velando por el derecho a la educación de los niños y las niñas. Ello implica que la formación en pedagogía hospitalaria no debe estar dirigida únicamente a los docentes hospitalarios, ya que cualquier docente puede, a lo largo de su carrera profesional, atender en sus aulas a niños/as que enfermen. Este artículo tiene como objetivo reflexionar sobre la necesidad de dicha formación, justificándola a partir de una investigación que ha supuesto el análisis e interpretación de diferentes datos, documentos legislativos y planes de estudio. Para ello, se utiliza una metodología cualitativa, haciendo uso del análisis documental co…

Pathways to higher education for first and second generation immigrants in France, Switzerland and Canada: how educational tracks and aspirations mat…
2014
Despite their different histories as countries of immigration, Switzerland, France and Canada all have a sizeable immigrant population, some of which do experience obstacles in their educational and professional careers. However, both access rates of immigrant students as well as institutional routes to higher education vary remarkably between the three countries. On the one hand, France and Switzerland offer both academic and vocational routes to higher education, whereas academic routes prevail in Canada. On the other hand, immigrant students are underrepresented in Swiss and French higher education, while they generally seem to be much more successful in Canada. In this paper we wish to …

L'école des filles : Quelle formation pour quels rôles sociaux ? Nouvelle édition revue et actualisée
2004
04071; Si filles et garçons font des scolarités différentes, n'est-ce pas, in fine parce qu'ils sont différents ? Pourtant, les recherches accumulées sur ces questions depuis trente ans convainquent de ce qu'on fait face, non pas à de simples différences, mais bien à de véritables inégalités. Certes des évolutions prennent place, notamment dans la société, qui se répercutent dans l'école. Il fallait donc actualiser "L'école des filles" paru en 1990, et présenter à la fois un bilan actuel de ces inégalités indissociablement scolaires et sociales, et dessiner les tendances qui augurent des évolutions à venir.

Mapping the relation between University access test and student’s university performance
2018
The access test is the most used tool to evaluate the initial preparation of an italian student before enrolling at the university. Although the necessity to select the most deserving students seem unquestionably reasonable, we have to wonder if it appears to be a good predictor of university performance. In order to answer this question, the university careers of the students enrolled at two Degree Courses at the University of Palermo (academic year 2013/2014) were analysed. The very aim of this paper is to propose a graphical tool, the Student Efficiency Nomogram, that shows the access test scores together with the first-year performance of the student.
