Creating the Consumer girl : A Study of Consumerism in Seventeen Magazine
2010
Kriittisen diskurssianalyysin perusajatuksen mukaan kieli ei vain heijasta todellisuutta vaan myös rakentaa sitä. Kielenkäytöllä voidaan siis katsoa olevan valtaa ihmisten uskomusten, arvojen ja tietämyksen määrittelyssä. Samanlaista valtaa on myös medialla, jota feministinen mediatutkimus tutkii stereotyyppisiä ja normalisoivia sukupuolikäsityksiä rakentavana sukupuoliteknologiana . Usein median vallankäyttö tapahtuu juuri kielenkäytön kautta. Kun tietyt puhetavat eli diskurssit toistuvat mediassa tarpeeksi usein, muokkaavat ne myös yleisiä mielipiteitä. Hyvä esimerkki sukupuoliteknologiana toimivasta mediasta ovat naistenlehdet, jotka rakentavat rajattua ja usein kulutuskeskeistä kuvaa n…
Health literacy as a learning outcome in schools
2012
PurposeThe aim of this paper is to define health literacy as a learning outcome in schools, and to describe the learning conditions that are relevant for targeting health literacy.Design/methodology/approachThe paper draws on theoretical and empirical educational literature, and also the experiences of the authors.FindingsHealth literacy is defined as consisting of five core components: theoretical knowledge, practical knowledge, critical thinking, self‐awareness, and citizenship. The first three components are rather similar to the commonly‐accepted health literacy concept, but the definition given in this paper expands the concept via two additional – but essential – components. It is emp…
The museum setup in the benedictine dormitory of monreale: The artworks of Santa Maria Del Bosco and the textile artefacts of the Cathedral, Sicily, …
2018
The recent decision to convert the Benedictine Dormitory in Monreale into an exhibition site offers the opportunity to enjoy the whole monumental complex where the wonderful cloister is the core attraction. It is on this site that the Norman Cathedral stands, brightly decorated with golden mosaics. The new exhibition has gathered together the artworks from the ruined abbey of Santa Maria del Bosco in Calatamauro and added them to the artefacts already exhibited at the Diocesan Museum. They include marble gravestones from the 16th-17th century church and those dating to the 18th century; one stone is in polychrome marble of the family of the canons, Candes and Donato; another was used for th…

Exploring early adolescents’ evaluation of academic and commercial online resources related to health
2018
This study assessed the ability of 426 students (ages 12–13) to critically evaluate two types of online locations on health issues: an academic resource and a commercial resource. The results indicated limited evaluation abilities, especially for the commercial resource, and only a small, partial association with prior stance and offline reading ability. Only about half (51.4%) of the students questioned the credibility of the commercial online resource and only about 19% of the students showed an ability to fully recognize commercial bias. Wide variation existed in students’ ability to evaluate online information, as approximately one-fourth of the students performed poorly when evaluating…

An Entropy-Driven Scenario for Future Design Education
2021
In a Domus article published in 1998, John Thackara claimed that design would lead by entropy in the future, and he won- dered how to avoid a similar dystopian scenario. As designers, we are aware of how wicked problems are really hard to face and how complexity has increased in these past decades: trans- disciplinary skills are therefore increasingly required. Further- more, we can only achieve incremental improvements to the situation, because a wicked problem typically has no definitive solution (Rittel, Webber 1973, in Erlhoff, 2008): a new mind- set is therefore required, one that is capable of overcoming our traditional one (Morin, 2015), in order to face and manage the complexity. In…
Fantasmi e trasmigrazioni. Le memorie degli altri in Georges Perec e Richard Mosse
2020
In questo saggio si analizzeranno due opere – Recits d’Ellis Island, di Georges Perec e Robert Bober e Incoming di Richard Mosse – e il loro modo di riflettere sulla Shoah in maniera eccentrica, obliqua attraverso due particolari lenti che guardano alle migrazioni di esseri umani in condizioni di pericolo: quella di phantasmata e quella di “trasmigrazione”, tanto nella sua accezione di migrazione, di passaggio di qualcosa o qualcuno attraverso lo spazio, ma anche attraverso il tempo, quanto nel senso di trascendenza dello spirito o dell’anima da una forma di esistenza corporea a forme di esistenza meno tangibili. All’interno di queste due opere la parola si fa accompagnare dall’immagine fot…
Emergency Response Model as a part of the Smart Society
2021
Centralized hybrid emergency model with predictive emergency response functions is necessary when the purpose is to protect the critical infrastructure (CI). A shared common operational picture among Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR) authorities means that a real-time communication link from the local level to the state-level exists. If a cyberattack would interrupt electricity transmission, telecommunication networks will discontinue operating. Cyberattack becomes physical in the urban and maritime area if an intrusion has not been detected. Hybrid threats require hybrid responses. The purpose of this qualitative research was to find out technological-related fundamental risks …
Tutela e restauro dei monumenti nella Palermo post-unitaria: un esempio tra teoria e pratica
2013
Il testo espone i primi risultati di una linea di ricerca volta a prendere in esame le attività di restauro poste in essere a Palermo a partire dall'unità d'Italia e fino alla II Guerra Mondiale. Tramite una ricerca archivistica svolta all'Archivio Centrale dello Stato di Roma, viene pubblicato ed esaminato criticamente per la prima volta l'inventario ottocentesco dei monumenti nazionali riferito alla città di Palermo. Si propone anche un esempio pratico di restauro attuato in città nei primi tre decenni del Novecento per verificare la pratica effettiva del restauro da parte degli organi di tutela locali e ministeriali.
