Teaching Physics Concepts Using Educational Robotics
2019
This paper reports a study included in the national project PROMISE funded by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research. It examines the application of an educational robotics laboratory with secondary school students for learning concept about physics. In the paper we describe the didactic strategies that have been implemented during the activities and we give some qualitative outcomes related to effectiveness of the laboratory. Indeed we observed interesting results in students both in term of learning and of interest and participation. The importance of teacher involvement in this type of intervention will also be discussed.
Traditional studying for examination versus constructivist learning tasks: Do learning outcomes differ?
1998
ABSTRACT Students' learning outcomes on an educational psychology course which involved studying three textbooks were compared between a constructivist class without a final examination and a traditional class concluding with an examination. The constructivist group (n = 16) studied the coursebooks with the help of writing assignments, discussed their assignments in groups and wrote an essay. The control group (n = 23) read the books on their own, attended lectures and took an examination. Learning outcomes were investigated (1) as the students' subjective learning experiences; (2) as changes in the students' learning conceptions; and (3) as measured by a traditional examination in which th…
Teaching and learning business ethics in a multicultural group
2017
Building on a constructivist learning theory and a case teaching method, this article suggests a mixed learning approach for teaching business ethics in a multicultural group. The purpose is to present the objectives and implementation of the mixed learning approach in a case course with a multicultural group. Based on the students' feedback, we also analyse and discuss the effects of the mixed learning approach on students' learning experiences. The article contributes to the growing stream of literature on business ethics teaching in higher education by presenting an approach that allows teachers and students to join in constructive knowledge creation in a multicultural group. In so doing…
Preparing teacher-students for twenty-first-century learning practices (PREP 21) : a framework for enhancing collaborative problem-solving and strate…
2016
With regard to the growing interest in developing teacher education to match the twenty-first-century skills, while many assumptions have been made, there has been less theoretical elaboration and empirical research on this topic. The aim of this article is to present our pedagogical framework for the twenty-first-century learning practices in teacher education. We will first review the current status of policy frameworks for the twenty-first-century learning skills. Based on our previous work and current understanding in the field of learning sciences, we will next elaborate the processes and strategies for collaborative problem-solving skills and strategic learning skills to specify curre…

Patterns of Teachers’ Occupational Well-Being During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Relations to Experiences of Exhaustion, Recovery, and Interactional Style…
2021
This study examined profiles of teachers’ occupational well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were collected from 279 Finnish primary school teachers during the spring of 2020. Four groups of teachers were identified by using Latent Profile Analysis: 1) teachers with mediocre stress and work engagement (34.4%);2) teachers with mediocre stress and lowest work engagement (11.5%);3) teachers with highest stress and work engagement (26.5%);and 4) teachers with lowest stress and highest work engagement (27.6%). The findings indicated that teachers’ occupational well-being was individually constructed, and there was a diversity with ways how negative and positive aspects of occupationa…
ESMO Consensus Guidelines for management of patients with colon and rectal cancer. A personalized approach to clinical decision making
2012
Contains fulltext : 111010pub.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common tumour type in both sexes combined in Western countries. Although screening programmes including the implementation of faecal occult blood test and colonoscopy might be able to reduce mortality by removing precursor lesions and by making diagnosis at an earlier stage, the burden of disease and mortality is still high. Improvement of diagnostic and treatment options increased staging accuracy, functional outcome for early stages as well as survival. Although high quality surgery is still the mainstay of curative treatment, the management of CRC must be a multi-modal approach pe…
La percezione dei docenti di insegnamento-apprendimento nel periodo emergenziale COVID-19: una ricerca nella Scuola Siciliana
2021
La didattica a distanza nel periodo di emergenza COVID-19 ha rappresentato una novità senza precedenti cui docenti e studenti non erano preparati. L’indagine sull'esperienza di 1364 insegnanti siciliani ha consentito di raccogliere informazioni sulle strategie organizzative e didattiche attivate, sulle criticità e sulla valutazione dell'efficacia didattica degli interventi effettuati. Sono state rilevate in modo sistematico le percezioni dei docenti relative all’autoregolazione e in particolare alla pianificazione, alle strategie di gestione delle informazioni, di correzione, e di valutazione. La ricerca nasce dal desiderio di accrescere la consapevolezza dei docenti. Conoscere gli effett…
Aprender a ser docentes con el cine de Miyazaki
2013
El presente artículo plantea la incorporación del cine como argumento válido para la formación del profesorado. Consideramos que el cine incluye suficientes mecanismos para involucrar la educación en artes visuales, la educación en medios, y la educación musical. Entre los directores más relevantes del panorama internacional, proponemos la figura de Hayao Miyazaki. Este creador japonés ha sabido atraer a públicos de todas las edades y culturas a lo largo de su dilatada carrera profesional. La calidad técnica de los trabajos de Miyazaki va acompañada de una serie de valores que resultan muy válidos para incorporar acciones educativas de respeto al medio natural y a las tradiciones culturales…
Radošais mācīšanas/mācīšanās stils angļu valodas pasniegšanā
2015
Šis Bakalaura darbsizmeklē radošuma pielietošanas nozīmi angļu valodas pasniegšanā. Šī darba mērķis ir izzināt radošos valodas mācīšanas paņēmienus un novērot kā tie tiek pielietoti vairākās angļu valodas nodarbībās. Pētījumā tika izmantotas tādas metodes kā teorētiskā un gadījuma izpēte. Lai pierādītu mērķi, tika pielietota metodiskās triangulācijas metode – šī darba autors novēroja trīs trešās klases angļu valodas nodarbības no dažādām skolām, kā vadlīnijas izmantojot paša autora veidotu nodarbību novērtējuma lapu, un, pēc nodarbībām, skolnieki aizpildīja aptaujas lapu, kas sniedza viņiem iespēju izpaust savas domas, grūtības un vēlmes attiecībā uz angļu valodas nodarbībām. Beidzot pētīju…
