Technology-Supported Educational Innovations in Finland and Hong Kong: A Tale of Two Systems
2005
The paper presents a comparison of case studies about innovative ICT-supported pedagogical practices in two educational systems, namely Finland and Hong Kong. The two systems were selected for this in-depth comparison for three main reasons. First, Finland and Hong Kong performed well in several international comparative studies of educational achievement. Second, the case studies collected via the SITES Module 2 indicated rather different profiles between Finnish and Hong Kong schools in terms of ICT infrastructure and pedagogical practices. Third, further analysis of the case studies data indicated differences in emergent pedagogical characteristics between the cases collected in Asia and…
Jurisdiction in cases of divorce, legal separation or marriage annulment
2021
The subject of coordination is fundamental for the functioning of jurisdictional rules of the Regulation n.2016/1103 on matrimonial property regimes and Regulation n.2016/1104 on the property consequences of registered partnerships. Both Property Regimes Regulations have the purpose of gathering litigation before the courts of one Member State and have the related procedures managed by the courts of the same Member State. Recital 34 of Regulation No. 2016/1103 specifies that matters of matrimonial property regime related to proceedings pending before the court of a member state hearing an application for divorce, legal separation or marriage annulment should be dealt with by the courts of t…
Leksiskā pieeja lietišķās angļu valodas sarakstes prasmju pilveidei augstskolā
2021
Šabloniskās valodas lietojums lietišķajā komunikācijā palīdz ziņu padarīt īsāku un skaidrāku, kas ir svarīgi, lai panāktu veiksmīgas biznesa attiecības un sasniegtu komunikatīvos mērķus. Mērķis bija izpētīt, cik efektīvi būtu piemērot leksisko pieeju mācot vēstuļu rakstīšanu lietišķās angļu valodas kontekstā. Pielietotā pētniecības metode bija gadījuma izpēte. Datu iegušanas metodes bija aptaujas un testi. Pētījuma dalībnieki bija trīsdesmit pilna laika bakalaura līmeņa studenti, kas apguva programmu vienā no universitātēm Latvijā. Visiem dalībniekiem angļu valoda bija svešvaloda. Secinājumi norādīja, ka leksiskā pieeja kā metodoloģiskā stratēģija pozitīvi ietekmēja šabloniskās valodas liet…
Kitchen chemistry course for chemistry education students: influences on chemistry teaching and teacher education – a multiple case study
2019
AbstractThis study introduces the Kitchen Chemistry (KC) course and its influences on chemistry education as a whole. KC is considered to be a life-relevant learning environment that engages learners in science through the pursuit of personally relevant and meaningful goals. KC, as a form of interdisciplinary learning, aims to develop boundary-crossing skills and to support the development of pupils’ scientific thinking. The purpose of this research was to determine how KC as a context-based teaching approach applies to chemistry education and what it offers to chemistry teaching and teacher education. We found that KC gave lower secondary school pupils the opportunity to understand the che…
Trade Unions and Lobbying: Fighting Private Interests While Defending the Public Interest?
2020
Although framing theory has been extensively studied in strategic communication comparatively, little is known about how trade unions, as a specific type of organization, use framing strategies to achieve their organizational goals. Trade unions frequently aim to present themselves as cause groups, campaigning for broader societal benefits and values. A key communicative challenge for them is to argue that the interest of their members equates to the public interest. How do trade unions communicatively construct links between union interests and the public interest? How is this strategy reconciled with the more conflict-oriented framing found in much traditional union discourse? This study …
Donne autrici o vittime di reato? Un’indagine sull’efficacia delle misure alternative nei percorsi di recupero delle detenute nel contesto agrigentino
2015
Nel senso comune la pena detentiva e considerata un elemento inevitabile della so¬cieta contemporanea. Essa continua ad essere percepita nell’immaginario collettivo come uno strumento di segregazione per coloro che sono riconosciuti colpevoli di particolari reati. I principi classici della prontezza, proporzionalita, infallibilita e dolcezza della pena non si identificano oggi esclusivamente con un edificio – la prigione – ma, sempre piu di frequente, con strumenti alternativi e piu efficaci per il recupero e la risocializzazione del soggetto. Proprio in questi decenni in cui l’intreccio fra poverta, penalita ed esclusione sociale diviene sempre piu evidente, l’afflizione a cui il singolo e…
A blow-up result for a nonlinear wave equation on manifolds: the critical case
2021
We consider a inhomogeneous semilinear wave equation on a noncompact complete Riemannian manifold (Formula presented.) of dimension (Formula presented.), without boundary. The reaction exhibits the combined effects of a critical term and of a forcing term. Using a rescaled test function argument together with appropriate estimates, we show that the equation admits no global solution. Moreover, in the special case when (Formula presented.), our result improves the existing literature. Namely, our main result is valid without assuming that the initial values are compactly supported.
Predicting response to interpersonal counselling (IPC) from case formulation : a systematic comparison between recovered and unchanged depressive cas…
2019
We sought to explore how the process between the counsellor and patient for arriving at a case formulation may predict the outcome of manualized interpersonal counselling (IPC) for depression in primary care. Qualitative content analysis and applied conversation analysis (CA) were used to achieve depth in the understanding of case formulation process among five patients who recovered and five who were unchanged according to quantitative post-treatment change rates derived from Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation– Outcome Measure (CORE-OM). Interaction in the case formulations for the recovered group was generally characterized by a joint construction effort between the counsellor and th…
An Analysis of a Single Case of Comorbidity between Learning Disability and Borderline Intellectual Functioning
2012
Abstract In this study we explored a case of comorbidity between DSA and Borderline Intellectual Functioning. The girl was fourteen years old, ninth grade of school in Palermo, with significant learning difficulties. Two interviews were conducted, one with parents and one with teachers, to investigate the history of the girl's learning. In the pre-test phase the following cognitive areas were investigated: Q.I. (Level of Intelligence), decoding ability, reading comprehension and writing skills. Motivational-emotional profile was also evaluated: school motivation, self-handicapping strategies, self esteem and school anxiety. To assess these cognitive areas we used: Reading Comprehension Test…
