Service Learning: una ricerca all’Università
2022
La letteratura scientifica, principalmente statunitense, considera il Service Learning (SL) una pratica educativa ad alto impatto (High Impact Practice o HIP) (Brownell, Swaner, 2010; Kuh, 2008), un approccio educativo per migliorare l’apprendimento degli studenti (Chupp, Joseph, 2010). Le recenti direttive ministeriali (MIUR, 2016) hanno aperto una strada per favorire la pratica e la riflessione all’interno delle Università italiane, facendo leva sul potenziale di sviluppo in termini di competenze metodologiche, professionali e sociali. In questa visione, il Service Learning rappresenta il punto di intersezione tra teoria e pratica, tra ricerca e sperimentazione, tra apprendimento come sv…
Autoefficacia e resilienza del docente universitario
2023
In the field of university teaching, many research highlights that the role of the university teacher acquires a different connotation than the traditional model, assuming today the function of guide, accompanist, facilitator and mentor (Kim, Khera & German, 2014; Sultan, 2018). The research aims to provide theoretical references on the quality of teaching in universities and teacher training, to improve it, in a research report agile stimulating interpretation of results, useful within a TLC (Teaching and Learning Center). Taking about the recent results of the reference literature, we want to verify if the effectiveness of innovative teaching interventions (Flipped and Service Learnin…
Nessuno resta indietro: un progetto di service learning
2022
La chiusura delle scuole ha provocato un incremento significativo della povertà educativa ha sollecitato l’opportunità di progettare interventi integrati di service learning per favorire il recupero e il potenziamento dei minori in difficoltà. 869 studenti del Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Scienze della Formazione Primaria dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo, sono stati coinvolti nella progettazione e nella realizzazione di percorsi didattici mirati, rivolti agli alunni “fragili” di 33 scuole palermitane. Complessivamente sono state erogate 60.000 ore in DAD di attività di recupero e di potenziamento dell’apprendimento di alunni della scuola primaria di Palermo. Le attività didattiche sf…

Sex differences in OF1 mice's learning of the Hebb-Williams Maze
2017
El Laberinto Hebb-Williams es una prueba utilizada para evaluar el aprendizaje espacial en animales. Aunque la capacidad espacial es una función cognitiva considerada sexodimórfica, donde los machos muestran una ventaja frente a las hembras, los resultados de los pocos estudios que evalúen diferencias de sexo en esta prueba no son concluyentes. Por ello, en este estudio nos propusimos comprobar si los ratones OF1 machos ejecutaban mejor que las hembras las tareas del Laberinto Hebb-Williams, y si esa ventaja era independiente de la dificultad del laberinto. Se utilizó la versión reducida para ratones, la cual consta de 5 laberintos, 3 considerados fáciles y 2 difíciles. Los resultados en ge…
Shakespeare, Art and Artifice: An Interview with Stuart Sillars
2019
Ahead of the publication of his forthcoming book, Shakespeare Seen: Image, Performance and Society (Cambridge, 2018), Stuart Sillars sat down for an interview with Perry McPartland. The discussion revisited a number of topics that Sillars has explored in his various publications on Shakespeare, including Shakespeare’s aesthetic strategies of transformation, the relationship his work takes to the visual, and the uses to which Shakespeare puts aesthetic artifice. The interview was conducted in two parts over a very nearly adequate Skype connection in the summer of 2018.
Design guidelines for flexible and scalable SLPs
2020
The project “European Short Learning Programmes” (E-SLP) aims at developing networked Short Learning Programmes, which answer societal needs and provide flexibility to learners. Within the project SLPs are understood as short-term academic programs situated between singular learning units and more extensive academic programs. They offer academic training for selected topics that are of high relevance to certain target groups or introduce new skills that are highly relevant for primarily lifelong/adult learners in employment (D.2.1 E-SLP). A Short Learning Programme (SLP) is an educational programme with a sequenced set of components (units, modules or other learning building blocks). It is …
Report on collaborative SLPs and related mobility
2020
This report (D6.2) outlines the work carried in Work Package (WP) 6 of this project E-SLP, where 5 actual SLP pilots were designed, implemented and delivered to students. This report builds on the cooperation model described in D6.1, and the work done in WP2 "Concept and role of SLPs in European HE” and WP3 “Institutional policies for SLP’s”. Furthermore D.6.2 describes the methodology used to design each pilot, detailing its target group, study level, contents and programme characteristics. The lessons learned from these pilots will be detailed in D.6.3 “Models and guidelines for the collaborative development and delivery of SLPs and related mobility”, which add the experience level to rep…
Report on models and guidelines for the collaborative design, development and delivery of SLPs
2021
This document refers to deliverable 6.3 on the development of models and guidelines for the collaborative development and delivery of short learning programs and related mobility. Originally started with an introductory document, based on experience and expertise with joint Erasmus Mundus programmes, the Networked Curriculum Project (NETCU) and the work on the EADTU Mobility Matrix, this document builds further on the experience of the pilots in the ESLP project (WP6) and from other work packages, referring in particular to the comprehensive SLP design guidelines that have been developed (WP4). nonPeerReviewed
Emulation of Sun-Induced Fluorescence from Radiance Data Recorded by the HyPlant Airborne Imaging Spectrometer
2021
The retrieval of sun-induced fluorescence (SIF) from hyperspectral radiance data grew to maturity with research activities around the FLuorescence EXplorer satellite mission FLEX, yet full-spectrum estimation methods such as the spectral fitting method (SFM) are computationally expensive. To bypass this computational load, this work aims to approximate the SFM-based SIF retrieval by means of statistical learning, i.e., emulation. While emulators emerged as fast surrogate models of simulators, the accuracy-speedup trade-offs are still to be analyzed when the emulation concept is applied to experimental data. We evaluated the possibility of approximating the SFM-like SIF output directly based…
