Literature as a representation of changes in urban landscapes after 1945 (on Polish, Czech and Slovak examples)
2018
The paper focuses on changes of urban and cultural landscapes after 1945 under the communist regime in a way that they were presented in Polish, Czech and Slovak literature published after 1989 (when a climate for talking about politically uncomfortable topics has changed). The main subject of the author‟s interest is how surrounding landscape influences people‟s behaviour demonstrated in literary pieces. The destruction caused during the WWII in Polish (former German) towns like Gdańsk, Szczecin or Wrocław and decision of contemporary authorities not to restore anything for many decades forced citizens to live in increasingly decaying surroundings. In Czechoslovakia, due to expulsion of Ge…
El enfermo de cáncer: una aproximación a su representación social O paciente de câncer: uma aproximação a suas representações sociais The cancer pati…

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo el análisis de la representación social del cáncer y de los enfermos oncológicos en la población española. Para ello se entrevistaron a 200 sujetos elegidos mediante muestreo al azar. El método utilizado fue la realización de entrevistas estructuradas que contenían asociaciones libres de palabras ante términos estimulo y preguntas semicerradas. Las respuestas obtenidas son analizadas a partir de análisis descriptivos y análisis de contenido. Los resultados nos indican que existe una representación social del cáncer y del enfermo oncológico y que parte de ella sufre variaciones en función de la pertenencia a determinadas categorías o grupos sociales. Es…
From detail to project: House Caiozzo-Facciola
2021
The analysis and understanding, through drawing, of Casa Cajozzo-Facciolà, designed by Pasquale Culotta and Giuseppe Leone, in 1979, on a cliff in Contrada Ogliastrillo in Cefalù, followed a pro- cess that is unlike the traditional process. From the consideration that the detail is thought of as a portion of a whole, which allows, through a close examination, to re-read the global system from which it was provisionally extracted, we proceeded with the analysis of the expected construction system, the balloon frame, and thanks to a close examination of the construction details of which there were sketches with explanatory notes, the proportions, spaces, volumes, surface treatment of the over…
Regimi dietetici, regimi di senso. Diete dimagranti a confronto
2015
La dietetica non ha, come si può pensare, una dimensione strettamente individuale, soggettiva, legata al corpo del singolo e all’esercizio di regole alimentari. Essa è infatti al tempo stesso una pratica individuale e collettiva, corporea e sociale, che sconfina facilmente addirittura nella politica.
Will drawing be used to study and teach architecture in the next century?
2022
In this millennium, the use of digital tools for representation (and survey, but the subject will not be discussed here) has rapidly and deeply modified the study and the design of architecture. The rapid evolution of this mutation prompts the following question: will drawing be the language of the architect in the next century?
Forte Avalos: tra memoria e oblio, un disegno per ricordare
2020
In 16th century Sicily, in order to deal with the incursions of the Turks and Barbary, the Spanish viceroy government put in place the construction of some maritime forts in order to defend the coasts of the island. Among these, in the port city of Augusta, Avalos fort was built around 1570, a small modern fortification characterized by the particular semicircular floor plan, capable of having a wide radius of action. Various and extensive studies have been conducted on the events and historical representations of the fort also in relation to the fortified maritime system of the Sicilian coasts. However, these studies have not always been related to the actual state of the property, which, …
Using schematic representation of resource systems to examine how first year engineering students use resources in their studies of mathematics
2018
International audience; Very little research has been done on how students use resources when studying mathematics. My project aim to examine this both quantitatively and qualitatively. The qualitative data collection includes hierarchical focus interviews and schematic representation of resource system, with the intent to impose as little terminology as possible on the students.
Transferencia inter-dominios en resolución de problemas : una propuesta instruccional basada en el proceso de «traducción algebraica»
2009
Understanding a science and math word problem means constructing mental representations at different levels of abstraction. Secondary students have dificulties solving algebraic word problems due to the transition from the concrete representation to the mathematic representation. In order to facilitate the «algebraic translation» of the problems, we adapt a «rule to put a problem into equations» by Puig (1998) and insert it in an experimental methodology devoted to improving the inter-domain transfer in science. Results show the power of the instructional methodology to overcome most of the students’ dificulties, no matters their average academic performance.

Union representation and prevention of occupational risks during the crisis: impact and limits
2019
La investigación que presentamos estudia el impacto de la intervención sindical en materia de salud laboral, en lo que se refiere tanto a la gestión preventiva y creación de una cultura participativa como en los procesos de vigilancia y control de las condiciones de trabajo. A tal efecto, se han consultado las principales encuestas nacionales e internacionales sobre gestión de riesgos laborales en las empresas, analizando los datos más relevantes en base a modelos de regresión logística y lineal, lo que ha permitido constatar que la representación sindical de los trabajadores en la empresa (generalista y especializada) correlaciona positivamente con el desarrollo de las principales dimensio…
