The relationship between classroom quality and students' engagement in secondary school
2013
Student engagement has been identified as an influential mediator between classroom interactional quality and adolescent learning outcomes. This study examined the relationship between classroom quality and student behavioural engagement in secondary school classrooms. Three dimensions of classroom quality (emotional, organisational and instructional support) and the dimension of student engagement were observed in nine classrooms using the Classroom Assessment Scoring System. Self-ratings of behavioural engagement were provided by 181 Finnish secondary school students along with their teachers’ ratings of classroom-level student engagement. The results showed, first, that there was variati…

Children with neurodevelopmental disorders often show impairments in sensory processing (SP) and higher functions. The main objective of this study was to compare SP, praxis and social participation (SOC) in four groups of children: ASD Group (n = 21), ADHD Group (n = 21), ASD+ADHD Group (n = 21), and Comparison Group (n = 27). Participants were the parents and teachers of these children who were 5-8 years old (M = 6.32).

Motivare attraverso la flipped classroom
2016
All'interno dell'articolo si sottolinea come la flipped classroom permetta di sfruttare le opportunità offerte dalle ICT e dai linguaggi digitali per supportare nuovi modi di insegnare, apprendere e motivare. Essa consente, da un lato, al docente di svolgere il delicato compito di scegliere accuratamente il materiale multimediale che intende adottare per la classe e, dall'altro, di motivare gli alunni ad apprendere, stimolarli a riflettere ed approcciarsi alle nuove tecnologie con maggiore senso critico, sviluppando capacità di selezione dei dati e delle informazioni in maniera autonoma.
Anecdote-Spin-Instructional-Design
2015
Instructional Design is a wonderful tool in the hands of any Instructor, be a class teacher or a lecturer, or a professor. Having an Instructional design and knowing how to use it will make one an effective instructor (Bandura 1997). The design could be in the form of a method or a paradigm, or any cognitive frame work (Elliot and McGregor 2001; Cury et al., 2006). Each design could have its own logic, for example Clarke, Ayres, and Sweller (2005) used spreadsheet application as instructional design to teach students mathematical concepts and procedures (Ambrose et al., 2010). Here we propose a design namely Anecdote-Spin-Instructional-Design. People of every age, be it young or old or midd…
The effect of individual and classroom moral disengagement on antisocial behaviors in Colombian adolescents: A multilevel model
2022
The present study examined the predictive effect of moral disengagement (within and between classrooms) on antisocial behaviors in Colombian adolescents, as well as the interaction of moral disengagement with classroom composition by age, socioeconomic status (SES), and perceived teacher–student relationship quality. Multilevel modeling was used to identify individual, compositional, and contextual effects on antisocial behaviors. The predictive variables were: (a) classroom mean score (i.e., between-classroom analysis), and (b) student deviation from the classroom mean score (i.e., within-classroom analysis). The sample included 879 students nested in 24 seventh-grade classrooms in three C…

Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11218-011-9153-3 In this ethnographic study conducted in two classrooms in Norway, grade nine (14-year-olds) in lower secondary school and the first year (16-year-olds) of upper secondary school, attention is drawn to how classroom culture is constituted through relationships between students. Through processes of power, dominance, hegemony and marginalisation, classroom culture forms the conditions for a learning environment, and has different opportunities, dilemmas and costs for the students. As classroom culture is negotiated in contextual and r…

2013
I risultati presentati fanno parte di una più ampia ricerca -tuttora in corso-, che mira ad individuare i metodi, le tecniche e gli strumenti didattici che facilitano il successo scolastico degli uomini e delle donne facendo leva sul loro diverso modo di affrontare lo studio. Le diversità fra maschi e femmine, che appartengono al naturale ordine psico-biologico e si manifestano in modo diverso nel tempo e nei luoghi, incidono in modo diretto non solo sullo sviluppo affettivo e relazionale degli alunni ma anche sul loro modo di apprendere; in questo articolo sono presi in considerazione solo gli aspetti che richiedono una particolare attenzione didattica, per quanto riguarda la fascia d’età …
