Cambiamenti nell'uso dei soggetti clitici veneti: il ruolo del contatto con l'italiano
2018
This chapter discusses the results of a series of data on the syntax of subject clitic pronouns in Venetan dialects. The data were gathered through a crowdsourcing tool (google modules), and more than 700 participants took part in the inquiry. The data collection asked for grammaticality judgements on a series of contexts. The main research question was whether the syntax of subject clitics is changing in the language of the younger generation: this question is particularly important because the distribution of the Venetan varieties througout the Veneto region is changing, due to the increasing influence and presence of Italian, which is the L1 of most of the younger speakers. The results s…
Linear Types for Higher Order Processes with First Class Directed Channels
1995
Abstract We present a small programming language for distributed systems based on message passing processes. In contrast to similar languages, channels are one-to-one connections between a unique sender and a unique receiver process. Process definitions and channels are first class values and the topology of process systems can change dynamically. The operational semantics of the language is defined by means of graph rewriting rules. A static type system based on the notion of linear types ensures that channels are always used as one-to-one connections.
Emerging conceptualisations on professional agency and learning
2017
This chapter provides an evaluative summary of the major contributions from the first section of this book, comprising conceptualisations on professional agency and work-related learning. The evaluation focuses on the differences, similarities, and strengths of the approaches and conceptualisations touched on. The focus is, first of all, on how the core meanings of agency and the agentic perspective are understood. Secondly, the approaches are addressed according to their view of how the contextual aspects of working life relate to agency. Thirdly, attention is given to the practical conclusions deriving from different understandings of agency. The present chapter thus elaborates how these …
Pre-service foreign language teachers' expectations of their studies and teacher profession
2017
Uusia kielenopettajia tutkittaessa on havaittu, että opettajan alkutaival on usein haastavaa, ja monet toimivat näissä tilanteissa tavoilla, jotka eivät ole edullisia opettajien hyvinvoinnille ja ammattitaidolle. Ratkaisuksi ehdotetaan yleensä kielenopettajakoulutuksen kehittämistä. Kielenopettajaksi opiskelevien toimijuutta ja käsityksiä on kuitenkin tutkittu melko vähän. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, mitä kielenopettajaopiskelijat odottavat yliopisto-opinnoiltansa ja millaisia käsityksiä heillä on opettajan professiosta. Näitä käsityksiä vertailtiin kieltenopettajankoulutuksen tavoitteisiin ja periaatteisiin, jotka ovat Suomessa tutkimusperusteisia. Tutkimuksen aineisto k…
A replication study on the intuitiveness of programming language syntax
2023
AbstractIn this article, we present a replication of an empirical experiment that evaluates intuitiveness and comprehensibility of keywords relating to different concepts in programming languages, originally conducted by Stefik and Gellenbeck. Novice programmers face many barriers when learning programming. One of these barriers is syntax, which for many languages is not designed based on empirical evidence. The purpose of the experiment was to provide more empirical evidence on the subject, to find out if the results of the original experiment can be replicated and if conducting the experiment in an environment where English is not the native language affects the results. The results of ou…
FROM THE DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY TO THE INFORMATICS LANGUAGE.
2010
This study is centred in the environment of the research into solutions of the problems of graphic representation, expressing theoretical considerations which allow the carrying out of geometric-descriptive procedures decoded in informatics language, for implementing CAD commands. The solution of these problems requires a reliable command of stereometry and descriptive geometry and it can extend remarkably the level of external geometric competences. The implementation of the means of ICT has brought a higher effectiveness of graphing mapping processes. In the informatics field, the advent of software dedicated to computerized representation has increased the possibilities of investigation …
Traduzione e soggettività. Ancora su Pasolini e il cinema
2021
This paper reconstructs the debate raised by the thesis on cinema proposed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. In particular, two basic notions are addressed: the idea of cinema as a 'written language of reality' and the role of free indirect discourse for the establishment of a 'poetry cinema'. Pasolini is put into dialogue with Gilles Deleuze, Paolo Fabbri and other semiologists.
The role of linguistic and cognitive factors in emotion recognition difficulties in children with ASD, ADHD or DLD
2020
Abstract Background: Many children with neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or developmental language disorder (DLD) have difficulty recognizing and understanding emotions. However, the reasons for these difficulties are currently not well understood. Aims: To compare the emotion recognition skills of children with neurodevelopmental disorders as well as those children’s skills with the skills of their typically developing (TD) age peers. Also, to identify the role of underlying factors in predicting emotion recognition skills. Methods & Procedures: The 6–10‐year‐old children (n = 50) who participated in th…

Nauczanie języka niemieckiego jako języka mniejszości narodowej w przedszkolach województwa opolskiego
2017
Na terenie województwa opolskiego występują mniejszości narodowe i grupy etniczne, dla których organizowane jest kształcenie umożliwiające podtrzymywanie tożsamości narodowej, etnicznej i językowej. Od 1991 r. w szkołach, a od 2001 r. w przedszkolach zauważa się wzrost zainteresowania nauczaniem języka niemieckiego jako języka mniejszości narodowej. W przedszkolach występuje dynamika rozwoju placówek oferujących ten rodzaj edukacji, a także wzrost liczby dzieci korzystających tej oferty.
