Questionnaires and simulations to assess daylighting in Italian university classrooms for IEQ and energy issues

2021

Abstract Results from the DAYKE-Italy project are presented. An investigation on daylighting in eight classrooms in five Italian universities was carried out through a combined approach: an ad-hoc survey administered to students to investigate how they perceive daylight in classroom, and numerical simulations (DIVA + ALFA) to calculate a set of objective metrics (daylight, circadian, and energy-related). A sample of 542 questionnaires was collected through two sessions and the subjective judgments were correlated to objective metrics. Results from descriptive and statistical analyses showed: (i) the correlation was significant for all daylight metrics: among them, average daylight factor an…

Moral beings and becomings : children's moral practices in classroom peer interaction

2016

This study investigates children’s social and moral practices as they appear in everyday classroom peer interaction. Its focus is on the relations between children’s interaction and moral understandings in situ. Juxtaposing the most archetypal ways of addressing and investigating morality in mainstream educational psychology, this study approaches morality is as it handled and man- aged as part of everyday intersubjective interaction. Ethnomethodological approaches alongside with sociocultural views of thinking are employed as theoretical and analytical frameworks to delineate how children as moral agents use language and other semiotic resources to accomplish their local organization of mo…

Feedback bei internationalen Videokonferenzen in der Lehrendenbildung

2023

The article deals with interactional processes in video conferences that took place as part of an international training and further education event for DaF-teachers. The focus is on showing how the teachers request feedback from each other in relation to the topics to be discussed and in what form they receive it. Furthermore, the role of moderation should also be examined. The aim of the study is to reveal interaction patterns that characterize the behavior of teachers in the context of digital education in order to promote a professional feedback culture when dealing with lesson observation.

Flipped Classroom: Aprendizaje Personalizado en la Universidad

2020

The project considers the Flipped Classroom methodology as a strategy that help to personalize learning. Firstly, higher education context will be considered. Then, the instructor’s role at University will be presented. Qualitative methodology was chosen as a method and in depth interviews were undertaken. Results shows that effective learning is connected to the ability the instructor has to motivate his/her students, to how much is he/she able to create a good environment for learning, to his/her ability to guide students towards their future jobs. El proyecto pretende presentar la metodología de la Flipped Classroom como estrategia metodológica personalizada. En su estructuración, este t…

La flipped classroom a scuola: uno studio di caso.

2016

Questo lavoro è inserito all’interno del progetto di ricerca di interesse nazionale (PrIN, 2010/2011) “Il successo della formazione, l’inclusione e la coesione sociale: strategie innovative, modelli di ICt e di valutazione” (coordinatore scientifico nazionale è il professor Gaetano domenici). Il contributo vuole rappresentare uno studio di caso sull'utilizzo della flipped classroom con studenti dai 14 ai 18 anni. Il modello della flipped classroom porta a profondi cambiamenti nella prassi didattica invertendo i momenti classici dell’attività educativa, quello della presentazione delle informazioni in classe e quello dell’acquisizione dei contenuti a casa. attraverso il lavoro di ricerca si …

FLIPPING THE ESL CLASSROOM.STRATEGIES FOR COMMUNICATION AND INCLUSION

2015

One of the most interesting and recent teaching approach that is attracting insistently both academic and teaching environments, is the Flipped Classroom, or Inverted Classroom. The class, where there is a turning over of the activities with the purpose of making both lessons and individual study more interesting and productive is “flipped”. This approach is fundamentally based on three issues: 1) a conscious use of technologies for learning/teaching purposes, 2) a revision of learning times, 3) the importance of the educational relationship. The flipped is also an answer to the teacher's aim to solve problems related to the learning process, that means, to create the best condition through…

Investigating the affordances of a flipped mathematics classroom from an activity theoretical perspective

2020

Abstract Flipped Classroom as a pedagogical framework has gained popularity at secondary and tertiary levels of mathematics education, but there is a lack of research based on a solid theoretical foundation. This article considers the flipped mathematics classroom from the perspective of affordances and cultural–historical activity theory. The empirical background is based on semi-structured interview data from eight first-year computer-engineering students following 1 year of flipped classroom teaching. The thematic analysis of the data indicates that the flipped format offers a range of affordances at various levels of the activity system. This article advances research on affordances for…

Assessing the effectiveness of GraphoLearn combined with classroom instruction on phonics : a randomised control trial

2023

Proficiency in reading is a gateway for learning. However, the literacy rate in India stands at only 73% today. Many children studying in English-medium public schools often face a learning disadvantage through the schooling years since they struggle in learning to read in English which manifests into a struggle with reading to learn in later years. This disadvantage is more pronounced in children living in poverty. Thus, consistent efforts towards building foundational literacy skills of these children when developmentally appropriate is important to overcome the learning crisis. The aim of this study was to determine whether GraphoLearn, a computer assisted learning tool, combined with Gr…
