Dal liceo all’università: una ricerca-intervento per la costruzione del progetto di vita professionale degli studenti
2019
Si è conclusa nel mese di maggio del 2019 la prima parte di una ricerca-intervento ispirata alla teoria del pensiero narrativo, ai principi dell’educational counseling e della didattica orientativa. Durante l’anno scolastico 2018-2019, 93 studenti (50 femmine e 43 maschi) del quarto anno di cinque licei di Palermo hanno partecipato a un’iniziativa sperimentale in cui scuola e università hanno collaborato con un duplice scopo: ridurre negli studenti il gap rilevato tra le conoscenze in uscita dal liceo e quelle richieste all’inizio dei corsi universitari e potenziare in loro la capacità di formulare il proprio progetto di vita professionale. È stata sperimentata l’azione congiunta di tre tip…
Kształcenie umiejętności pisania w edukacji polonistycznej w XXI wieku - od sprawności do kreatywności
2021
W artykule postawiona została teza, iż ze względu na wzrost rangi umiejętności pisania we współczesnym świecie konieczna wydaje się potrzeba dydaktycznej refleksji nad uczeniem pisania w L1, tym bardziej że koncepcje kształcenia tej kompetencji powstały jeszcze w XX wieku, w zgoła odmiennej rzeczywistości kulturowo-komunikacyjnej, i trwają w edukacji polonistycznej do dziś. Rozważania prowadzą w stronę rozpoznania problemów, z którymi należałoby się zmierzyć i zagadnień, które należałoby rozważyć, by nadać pisaniu adekwatną rangę edukacyjną w stosunku do rangi kulturowo- komunikacyjnej i w rezultacie wziąć większą odpowiedzialności za osiągane efekty kształcenia. Dydaktyka i praktyka uczeni…
Norms and Ideologies of Academic Writing on an International Master’s Programme in Finland
2019
This ethnographically-oriented study followed the experiences of six (later four) students on an international master’s programme in Finland. Programmes such as this combine culturally, linguistically and often academically diverse students, using English as a lingua franca for course completion and evaluation, rather than the official language of the institution. My aim was to explore the norms and ideologies of English academic writing on the programme, or, in other words, what counts as ‘good’ writing for participants in this increasingly common context of English use for academic purposes. Over three years, I collected a range of data, including students’ texts, instructions for and fee…

The aim of the project is to compile a pilot electronic dictionary of 16th–17th century Latvian where all…
La escritura femenina española del siglo XVI y los paradigmas usados por Beatriz Bernal en Cristalián de España
2009
Las escritoras del siglo XVI, al buscar un espacio propio de creación, solían apegarse a un paradigma establecido por sus contrapartes masculinos. Al hacerlo, utilizaban distintos mecanismos. Por su parte, Beatriz Bernal no se apartó del modelo y utilizó varias herramientas al escribir su libro de caballerías, Cristalián de España. En el artículo se analiza la obra de Beatriz Bernal a partir de distintos conceptos y herramientas de análisis como la polifonía en Bajtin, la deconstrucción del cuerpo femenino como modelo de creación, siguiendo los conceptos de Derrida y Ricouer, y, por último la concepción de autora- lectora- escritora que se debe a María Carmen Marín.
Writing business research article abstracts: A genre approach
2012
A great deal has been published about oral and written genres in business (e.g., letters, research articles, oral presentations, etc.), and less attention has been paid to business research article abstracts as a written genre, as many experts would argue. This research intends to raise rhetorical awareness about the role of abstracts in today’s academic world. To this effect, the abstracts of two official publications of the Association of Business Communication, Journal of Business Communication and Business Communication Quarterly, have been analyzed and compared in terms of structure and content according to models published in the specialized literature. The results show an irregular a…

The outcomes of national literacy programs on basic reading skills in familiar language among Zambian early graders
2016
In Zambia the Ministry of General Education implemented two national literacy programs in order to improve low levels of reading; the Primary Reading Program (PRP) implemented from 1999 to 2014 and the Primary Literacy Program (PLP) piloted in some schools in 2014 before being scaled up. This research examines the acquisition of basic reading skills among learners in familiar languages at the end of grade 2 in the two national literacy programs. I examined assessment results separately for each program and compared the two with each other. Outcomes were observed on the basis of the Early Grade Reading assessment test battery given to random samples of children (n=393) in 40 schools from 4 d…
Illness Narrative and Self-Help Culture – Self-Help Writing on Age-Related Infertility
2014
Both self-help books and illness narratives are motivated by an impulse to overcome a crisis and, simultaneously, to help others who suffer from similar conditions. In doing so, authors of self-help and illness narratives move in between polar opposites: they have both individual and collective motives, they have a desire to overcome uncertainty and achieve control and they negotiate the authority of experience versus the authority of expertise. This paper has two objectives: (1) It describes the intersections of illness life writing and self-help culture and traces the thematic, cultural and historical similarities. (2) It analyzes a selection of four autobiographical, U.S.-American self-h…
