Chrystologiczny i pneumahagijny wymiar liturgii słowa we mszy świętej
2017
The subject of this study is one of the central truths of liturgical theology, especially of the theology of the Word of God, which in some aspects were re-discovered by the Second Vatican Council. In the first part, the author addresses the ąuestion of presence of Christ in the Liturgy of the Word, where Hc Himself speaks and sanctifies. In the second part, our attention is focused on the presence of the Holy Spirit in the Liturgy of the Word. The considerations lead to the conclusion that in our teaehing and the practice of prayer the Christological and Pneumatological dimension must always take into account consideration the Trinitarian dimension. Then and only then can one omit the moni…
La comunità educante di fronte alla pandemia: possibili strategie di intervento e nuovi scenari in un’ottica di rete
2022
Quando nel mese di marzo 2020, anche i servizi educativi 0-6 in Italia furono chiusi in base alle misure di sicurezza per pandemia da Covid 19, ci si ritrovò da un giorno all’altro e senza alcuna esperienza pregressa, ad organizzare delle forme di educazione a distanza e di sostegno alle famiglie e ai bambini. Nell’articolo, in particolare, descrivo come si è cercato di far fronte all’emergenza nei nidi e nelle scuole dell’infanzia gestiti dal Comune di Palermo e come l’esperienza del primo lock down abbia permesso di mettere a fuoco alcune strategie di intervento che si sono rivelate una risorsa potenzialmente trasferibile in situazioni di normalità. Sottolineo, inoltre, come la necessità …
The Three Steps of Clustering in the Post-Genomic Era: A Synopsis
2011
Clustering is one of the most well known activities in scientific investigation and the object of research in many disciplines, ranging from Statistics to Computer Science. Following Handl et al., it can be summarized as a three step process: (a) choice of a distance function; (b) choice of a clustering algorithm; (c) choice of a validation method. Although such a purist approach to clustering is hardly seen in many areas of science, genomic data require that level of attention, if inferences made from cluster analysis have to be of some relevance to biomedical research. Unfortunately, the high dimensionality of the data and their noisy nature makes cluster analysis of genomic data particul…
Pauls rectifiable and purely Pauls unrectifiable smooth hypersurfaces
2020
This paper is related to the problem of finding a good notion of rectifiability in sub-Riemannian geometry. In particular, we study which kind of results can be expected for smooth hypersurfaces in Carnot groups. Our main contribution will be a consequence of the following result: there exists a -hypersurface without characteristic points that has uncountably many pairwise non-isomorphic tangent groups on every positive-measure subset. The example is found in a Carnot group of topological dimension 8, it has Hausdorff dimension 12 and so we use on it the Hausdorff measure . As a consequence, we show that any Lipschitz map defined on a subset of a Carnot group of Hausdorff dimension 12, with…
Affective, Social, and Cognitive Outcomes During a 1-Year Wintering in Concordia
2016
International audience; This study investigated time patterns and the relationships between perceived stress, recovery, control, attention lapses, and defense mechanisms (DM) during a 12-month wintering in Concordia polar station with an international crew of 14 volunteers. This ICE (Isolated, Confined, Extreme) environment induced some stress, mainly in the social dimension and showed relationships (a) between DM and both stress and recovery and (b) between recovery and perceived control, highlighting the roles of DM and control in psychological adaptation. These results offer additional insights into the affective, social, and cognitive processes involved in adaptation. The findings sugge…
“Crossing the borders of own culture, stepping on frontiers”: Textbooks and intercultural communication
2021
Artykuł przedstawia wyniki analizy polskich i szwedzkich podręczników w kontekście ich wymiaru międzykulturowego. Podręczniki zostały pod-dane analizie treści przeprowadzonej za pomocą narzędzia stworzonego specjalnie na potrzeby tego badania i dostarczającego zarówno danych jakościowych, jak i ilościowych. Wyniki świadczą o istotnych różnicach między podręcznikami używanymi w obu krajach, wskazując sposoby, w jakie szwedzkie podręczniki promują kwestie związane z perspektywą międzykulturową oraz słabe strony polskiej próby w tym aspekcie. Porównawczy charakter analizy pozwala na refleksję nad rolą podręczników w przekraczaniu granic międzykulturowych, nauczaniu wartości w różnych konteksta…
THE CONCEPT OF COMPETENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF EDUCATION REFORM IN LATVIA
2019
The word competence is a key concept of ongoing education reform in Latvia - the ESF project “Competency approach in the curriculum” (hereafter: Project). The implementation of the idea of competence-based curriculum is related to significant changes in the structure of school and pre-school curriculum, the system of evaluation of learning outcomes, teacher education etc., which are widely clarified and discussed in expert groups and public space. Participating as experts in the development of a Project, the authors of the article find that the Latvian educational space lacks a common understanding of the meaning of the concept competence. Often the pedagogical terminology used by educators…
Teachers and inclusion: an empirical survey on specialist training for support teachers
2019
This paper illustrates the results of an empirical-experimental research conducted as part of the Specialization Course for support activities, held at the University of Palermo in the academic year 2016/17. The survey, concerning the effectiveness of training courses for teachers for the development of active learning, involved 450 teachers and had the main objective of investigating whether there was an actual increase in specific professional skills functional to school inclusion among those who attended the course. Despite leading to different kinds of meaningfulness, the pre/post-test data are evidence of a general positive improvement, highlighting how a student-centred approach has a…
Applying fully tensorial ICA to fMRI data
2016
There are two aspects in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data that make them awkward to analyse with traditional multivariate methods - high order and high dimension. The first of these refers to the tensorial nature of observations as array-valued elements instead of vectors. Although this can be circumvented by vectorizing the array, doing so simultaneously loses all the structural information in the original observations. The second aspect refers to the high dimensionality along each dimension making the concept of dimension reduction a valuable tool in the processing of fMRI data. Different methods of tensor dimension reduction are currently gaining popUlarity in literature…
Ritrovarsi in gruppo e fare ricerca insieme: dall’esperienza artistica ai gruppi di studio
2022
Nel mio intervento approfondisco il tema dei gruppi di studio APID rilevandone l’importanza ai fini della produzione di un sapere condiviso, dell’avvio di nuovi percorsi di ricerca, della “costruzione di comunità”, ma anche dell’azione verso un cambiamento culturale che coinvolga, in generale, la società civile. Parlo quindi della dimensione del gruppo di lavoro e delle sue specificità e funzioni e conduco una riflessione sulla necessità di trovare nuovi approcci epistemologici per la ricerca in ambito artistico ed embodied, insieme a nuove modalità comunicative verso l’esterno. Infine presento i gruppi di studio attualmente esistenti in APID e quelli ipoteticamente da costituire in relazio…
