L’ADULTO COME SPECCHIO. MODALITÀ COMUNICATIVE E APPRENDIMENTO

2021

Numerose ricerche sull’infanzia condotte a partire dal secolo scorso, hanno mostrato come i bambini, fin dai primi mesi di vita, siano attivi e propositivi nella interazione con gli altri esseri umani. In una prospettiva educativa, di promozione dei processi di apprendimento e di sostegno alla costruzione di una immagine di sé positiva e fiduciosa nelle proprie potenzialità, sono di grande importanza le modalità comunicative e relazionali degli adulti significativi. A tali modalità farò riferimento nel mio contributo, soffermandomi sul rispecchiamento verbale e non verbale, nelle sue diverse forme, approfondendone le ragioni teoriche e metodologiche e riflettendo su come possa attuarsi una …

Playful Hands-on Crafting for Personal Growth and Communal Well-being

2017

Crafts education in Finland has recently been exposed to considerable challenges, on both the theoretical and practical levels. The emphasis is shifting to personal expression and communal arts and crafts practices are being adapted to solidify social and cultural participation. Learning research shows us how inner motivation and multilevel objectives in comfortable learning environments induce stable and generalizable learning results. In addition, collaborative ways of working make data processing more open and turn learning into a shared effort. On the other hand, playful learning and dramatic methods offer productive ways of examining life situations in an active and empathetic way. Whe…

Exploring the material mediation of dialogic space : A qualitative analysis of professional learning in initial teacher education based on reflective…

2019

This study addresses the crucial relationship between theory and practice as a key feature of professional learning in initial teacher education. The context for the study is an EU-funded intensive programme drawing on different dimensions of insideness and outsideness and artsbased pedagogies in response to the diversity of education today. The data for the study comes from self-selected pages from preservice teacher participants’ reflective sketchbooks. As a methodological approach that unifies the sensuous and cognitive this study suggests that reflective sketchbooks document the dialogic encounters of students whilst also providing a material space that can itself become a form of dialo…

Using Kaleidoscopic Pedagogy to Foster Critically Reflective Learning About Management and Leadership

2019

This chapter focuses on an Arts-Based Intervention (ABI) into an Introductory course of Management and Leadership offered to students considering key concepts and frames of thinking in the field for the first time. First, we introduce Kaleidoscopic Pedagogy and conceptually frame our ABI in relation to the mode of learning that it allows for together with the drive for equality that it is concerned with. We then introduce the context of the ABI, describe the course and its background and the course facilitators together with information about the participants. Emphasis is placed on the way the course was framed to bring a sense of present-day management reality through our use of art-based …

An overview of qualitative comparative analysis: A bibliometric analysis

2017

Abstract This study is organized in two parts. We conduct a general analysis of the use of qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), and a bibliometric study of the use of QCA to analyze the specificities of the research publications that apply this methodology. Our results show the differences in quantitative terms of the three variants of this methodology: fsQCA, csQCA, and mvQCA.

The Țigani Community Adaptability to Changes in Rural Romania and the COVID-19 Impact

2021

Romanian rural villages are struggling to survive present times when youngsters leave for a better life in the city while elders work the land like a hundred years ago. Our paper integrates human environments research with public health preparedness, presenting the Țigani (Gypsy/Roma) ethnic group from rural Romania as an example to the world. The future security of mankind will require a new understanding of the human place in its environment. That will lead to a new society, not the most powerful or intelligent, but the one that is more adaptable to changes, with sensitive and interconnected community members. Therefore, the Țigani ethnic group that fought for its rights and flourished de…

Transmission processes of indigenous Pedi music

2017

There has been unsatisfactory integration of traditional music into education, despite the fact that the Ministry of Education advocates its use, stating that education should ‘preserve South Africa’s cultural practice; develop an appreciation for the practice of one’s culture; and develop a sense of respect for other people’s culture’. South Africa is in need of a music education philosophy that is culturally embedded, cognisant of the societal context in which it is to function, and informed by South African ideas and philosophy of life. This study entails sourcing the Ethnomusicological and Anthropological focus in musicology for purposes of providing a better understanding on music and …

Universal Patterns in Color-Emotion Associations Are Further Shaped by Linguistic and Geographic Proximity

2020

Many of us “see red,” “feel blue,” or “turn green with envy.” Are such color-emotion associations fundamental to our shared cognitive architecture, or are they cultural creations learned through our languages and traditions? To answer these questions, we tested emotional associations of colors in 4,598 participants from 30 nations speaking 22 native languages. Participants associated 20 emotion concepts with 12 color terms. Pattern-similarity analyses revealed universal color-emotion associations (average similarity coefficient r = .88). However, local differences were also apparent. A machine-learning algorithm revealed that nation predicted color-emotion associations above and beyond tho…
