Apprendere in contesti multiculturali. Apporti di ricerca per una didattica efficace ed inclusiva
2017
Il presente lavoro prende avvio da considerazioni riguardanti lo sviluppo dell’identità non solo in un’ottica di differenziazione, ma anche di inclusione in un contesto in grado di valorizzare tutti consentendo il raggiungimento di eque opportunità di apprendimento. L’attenzione è rivolta principalmente al ruolo del linguaggio nel fare e comunicare la matematica che nasce dall’esigenza di insegnare questa disciplina a studenti appartenenti a gruppi etnici diversi e con competenze linguistiche eterogenee. Sono dunque indagati nel dettaglio gli aspetti sintattici, lessicali, pragmatici e di notazione simbolica tipici del linguaggio matematico. Il testo si propone di superare la diffusa vision…
School PE through Internet discussion forums
2013
Background: Physical education is a subject that generates strong feelings and emotions, as can be seen in written accounts of PE experiences. It is also important to listen to students' voices in the research context. Nowadays, students can be listened to in a new way – through the Internet. Various discussion forums on the Internet make it possible for people to express themselves through real or imagined messages. It might be easier to express highly sensitive and even intimate thoughts on the Internet. Thus, the Internet might be an interesting open forum for teachers to think about new ways of developing teaching practices that would reduce negative experiences of PE.Purpose: The purpo…
The automatic analysis of classroom talk
2017
The SMART SPEECH Project is a joint venture between three Finnish universities and a Chilean university. The aim is to develop a mobile application that can be used to record classroom talk and enable observations to be made of classroom interactions. We recorded Finnish and Chilean physics teachers’ speech using both a conventional microphone/dictator setup and a microphone/mobile application setup. The recordings were analysed via automatic speech recognition (ASR). The average word error rate achieved for the Finnish teachers’ speech was under 40%. The ASR approach also enabled us to determine the key topics discussed within the Finnish physics lessons under scrutiny. The results here we…
Cuando la historia está presente: Argumentos a favor de la sociología histórica
2019
Sociology and history have maintained a discontinuous relationship and a permanent discussion. Classical sociology is intrinsically historical, but after the first theoretical synthesis the dialogue between both disciplines was extinguished and it has often been necessary to defend the need for the historical view in sociology from the margins of the dominant paradigm. However, as a specialty or subdiscipline, historical sociology has consolidated its own academic space and a strong theoretical, methodological and conceptual body. In Spain this process of institutionalization has not yet success. In this article we expose a few arguments in defense of historical sociology, both theoretical …
The Participation of Families in the Analysis and Transformation of their Reality through a Family Debate about Values and Living Together
2015
Este estudio aborda la socialización en valores y convivencia a partir de una investigación acción que parte de un enfoque participativo y dialéctico y que utiliza el Debate familiar, una herramienta innovadora cuyas finalidades son favorecer la reflexión y el diálogo intrafamiliar e implicar a las familias en el análisis y transformación de su realidad. Esta estrategia estimula el debate e invita a pensar sobre los valores presentes en la familia, recoge información de los diferentes miembros de la unidad familiar y a su vez, sensibiliza sobre los temas tratados. Un total de 492 familias, con al menos un hijo o hija entre 7 y 16 años, participaron en este estudio. Los resultados ponen de r…
Teaching master's degree students to read research literature
2017
The skill to read research literature critically belongs in every university graduate’s toolbox. I have attempted to teach this skill in a master’s degree level course in programming languages over 15 years using, at various times, simulated conferences, voluntary reading exercises, evidence-based practice training, and a flipped classroom with mandatory reading assignments. I discuss my experience and analyze preliminary qualitative data on the use of evidence-based practice and a flipped classroom for this purpose. I present no firm conclusions, but expect that future work (by me or others) will be able to use my experience as a baseline for better teaching of research literature reading.…
Children's exploration of the concepts of home and belonging: Capturing views from five European countries.
2021
Understanding one's sense of belonging is a central part of identity formation and self-awareness; feeling safe somewhere, with specific people is identified as a basic human need. This paper explores the ideas of children from three age groups in five different European as they discussed the concepts of ‘home’ and ‘belonging’. Findings showed that the children's ideas could be organised into six interrelated aspects: Spatiality, Materiality, Multiplicity, Social Relations, Affect, and Dislocation. Whilst there were differences in the ways that the children conceptualised home across the classes, even the youngest children were able to describe their ideas using metaphors and abstract conce…
University Faculty Perception of Cyber-Plagiarism: A Virtual Discussion Group
2021
Resumen Este estudio analiza el ciberplagio académico desde la perspectiva del profesorado del Grado en Traducción e Interpretación de la Universidad Internacional de Valencia. Dado que se trata de una práctica fraudulenta cada vez más extendida en las aulas universitarias, se hace necesario que el cuerpo docente reflexione sobre ella para evitar que se convierta en un recurso estructural por parte del alumnado en este nivel educativo. El estudio apuesta por una metodología cualitativa y, en concreto, el grupo de discusión, el cual se lleva a cabo por videoconferencia gracias a la participación de su claustro (n=16). Como instrumento se diseña un guion de seis preguntas a partir de las cual…

Quantitative method was employed to measure following latent variables: Trustworthiness of a community, website quality, accuracy, r…
