Distance learning of university tutoring. Brief analysis of an experience
2022
The paper focuses on peer training in the period of the pandemic in which even university tutoring took place remotely.

Peer tutoring is proposed as a strategic educational device to improve the quality of learning processes. In addition, peer support can activate social, emotional, and methodological skills that are fundamental for students' academic career. After a brief examination of the distance peer-tutoring, the analysis of a tutoring experience carried out at the University of Palermo is pres…

Using recorded audio feedback in multi-cultural higher e-education : How do academics experience? A thematic network analysis
2020
The aim of our study is to shed light on how academics experience using recorded audio feedback (RAF) as a feedback method in multi-cultural higher e-Education context. We adopted a qualitative content analysis approach, applying thematic network analysis to the data received from three academics (a case study). This approach proposes graphical networks as an aid for analyzing and synthesizing qualitative data into basic, organizing and global themes. The thematic network analysis produced two global, six organizing and 48 basic themes. The two global themes were named “Speaking style” and “Culture neutrality/sensitivity”. Based on our analysis, academics can, by using RAF in multi-cultural…
Incorporating teacher-student dialogue into digital course material : Usage patterns and first experiences
2020
This work-in-progress research investigates teacher-student communication via Learning Management Systems (LMS) in highly populated courses. An LMS called TIM (The Interactive Material) includes a specific commenting technology that attempts to make teacher-student dialog effortless. The research goal is to explore students’ willingness to use the technology and identify patterns of usage. To these ends, a survey with both Likert and open-ended questions was issued to CS1 and CS2 students. A favorable student evaluation was observed while several critical viewpoints that inform technology development were revealed. We noticed that besides appreciating the possibility of making comments, man…

Lo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della competenza comunicativa degli studenti universitari. Un esperimento Brain-Based in Dad
2021
Il contributo presenta l’utilizzo di un approccio di tipo Brainbased allo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della correlata competenza linguistico-comunicativa, che ha permesso la sperimentazione di una batteria di attività di Brain Gym (Dennison & Dennison, 2008) nel contesto didattico universitario durante il periodo di Didattica a Distanza (DAD) imposta dalla pandemia da Covid-19. La DAD ha comportato una drastica limitazione di alcuni elementi considerati fondanti per lo sviluppo delle competenze linguistiche, espressive e comunicative quali la corporeità, il controllo visuo-acustico, i tempi d’attenzione, la gestualità, il contatto. Nella sua fase iniziale, la ricerca condot…
