UNA DIDATTICA IMMERSIVA PER MIGRANTI E PER TUTTI
2022
L’articolo descrive il modello didattico di ItaStra ponendone in rilievo i caratteri fondamentali, incentrati sul ruolo attivo dell’apprendente in quanto soggetto artefice di cittadinanza democratica e sulla considerazione specifica delle dinamiche di repertorio. I contenuti del modello si sviluppano su quattro direttrici teorico-settoriali analiticamente descritte. Esse chiamano in causa la variazione linguistica interna ed esterna al soggetto apprendente, le (neo)compentenze, la multidisciplinarità, i contesti di apprendimento. I contenuti del modello sono il frutto delle esperienze sul campo e delle rielaborazioni teoriche maturate in quindici anni di attività sul fronte della didattica…
Palermo 2000–2020: Sicilian in Old and New Migrations
2022
This article will focus on the comparison between language attitudes and the status and functions of local dialect into migrant communities over the last twenty years. The first research started in the first years on the third Millennium and is being conducted (using narrative interview) within hundred young and adult migrants born in Palermo or residents in the city for years. In D’Agostino ( 2004, 2006, 2010), I suggested that very often the dialect was seen by migrants as a bridge thrown by the host society to favour their insertion, like “we code” shared by foreigners and natives who live in the same spaces within the city. It is been several years that the older migration has integrate…
Towards a multilingual database of sound effects
One of the most significant linguistic and technical challenges applied to subtitling for the deaf and hard of hearing persons (SDH) is the linguistic description of sound encapsulated within the space of subtitles. This subtitle typology is crucial to hearing impaired audiences, since its main purpose is to improve the level of comprehension and appreciation of the plot, character development and, in general, of the nuances of audiovisual products. The scope of this study is to investigate the possibilities and the applications of a multilingual database of sound effects. Such database will combine the most recent technologies in Respeaking, viewed as “the production of subtitles by means …
The bilingualism wars: Is the bilingual advantage out of (executive) control?
2019
espanolUno de los temas actuales mas controvertidos en psicologia cognitiva y neurociencia cognitiva es si el bilinguismo tiene un efecto sobre el control ejecutivo de las representaciones no verbales. En su vida diaria, los bilingues tienen que alternar entre dos (o mas) idiomas que compiten por su seleccion, por lo que han de seleccionar, monitorizar e inhibir (es decir, emplear componentes de la funcion ejecutiva) con mas frecuencia que los monolingues. Por lo tanto, no seria sorprendente que estas habilidades empleadas para seleccionar/monitorear los procesos linguisticos en bilingues tambien ayudaran al procesamiento de representaciones no linguisticas. Aunque la "ventaja bilingue" en …

Second Language Interference during First Language Processing by Arabic-English Bilinguals.
2017
The research investigated whether a bilinguals’ second language (L2) is activated during a task involving only the first language (L1). We tested the hypothesis that the amount of L2 interference can vary across settings, with less interference occurring in testing locations where L2 is rarely used. In Experiment 1, we compared language processing for 50 Arabic–English bilinguals tested in Saudi Arabia and 49 Arabic–English tested in the United States. In the task, participants viewed a picture and judged whether a phoneme presented over headphones was part of the L1 picture name. The results showed no effect of testing location on processing. For both groups of bilinguals, we observed L2 i…

Contesting language policy for asylum seekers in the Northern periphery: the story of Tailor F
2020
AbstractThis article is about navigating asylum, employment and language policy in a new country as an asylum seeker. Through the story of one individual, we show that profound inequalities are exacerbated when forced migrants are limited in their choice of language they might study or use. The individual is Tailor F, an Iraqi man seeking asylum, and the country is Finland, officially bilingual, with a majority language (Finnish) and a minority language (Swedish). Finland’s official bilingualism does not extend evenly to language education provided for asylum seekers, who are taught Finnish regardless of the region where they are placed. Upon arrival, Tailor F was housed in a reception cent…
