Challenging behaviour in school – special education teachers’ perceptions

2016

This article explores the challenges that special education teachers encounter during their daily work in Finnish schools. The main focus is in those challenges which cause worry among teachers, especially aggressive behavior in class rooms and school area. This article scrutinizes the reasons and consequences of a problem from the perspective of special education teachers. The research shows, how problems are mainly caused by delays in assessments, treatments and rehabilitation for pupils with mental or behavioral disorders. The analysis shows how on teachers’ opinion, challenging situations, which induce great worry occur when pupil has a need for psychiatric treatment but had not receive…

Professional agency in the stream of change: Understanding educational change and teachers' professional identities

2015

The qualitative meta-study reported here investigated Finnish vocational teachers' professional agency amid an educational reform. Differences were found in teachers' agency regarding their work, their involvement with the reform, and their professional identity. The manifestations of agency could remain stable or could change over time, and agency drew on various resources (e.g. teacher identity and the organizational management culture). The theoretical conclusions encompass professional agency as multidimensional, largely individually varied, temporally imbued, and both socially and individually resourced. Based on the findings, an agency-centered approach is proposed as a means of under…

Check in–check out intervention for supporting pupils’ behaviour: effectiveness and feasibility in Finnish schools

2018

Check In–Check Out (CICO) is a support programme for students with externalising problem behaviours. This study implemented in Finland is one of the first reports on the application of CICO in the European context. An experimental, multiple-baseline, single-case design is used to examine the effects of the CICO intervention on the problem behaviour and appropriate behaviour of three general education primary school pupils. The similarity of the observation data and the information provided in daily report card (DRC) are investigated to gauge the validity of the DRC assessments. The fidelity and social validity of the intervention are also analysed. CICO reduced problem behaviour in all pupi…

A Multivariate Approach to Study the Bacterial Diversity Associated to the Wooden Shelves Used for Aging Traditional Sicilian Cheeses.

2022

The present study was carried to correlate the microbial diversity of the biofilms developed on the wooden boards used for aging traditional Sicilian cheeses with cheese typology. To this end, the microbial diversity of the shelves in contact with the cheeses PDO Pecorino Siciliano, PDO Piacentinu Ennese, and TAP Caciocavallo Palermitano, during ripening, was evaluated by a multivariate statistical approach. The shelf biofilms of this study were previously analyzed for their microbial composition, but no correlation between biodiversity and cheese type was investigated. Canonical discriminant analysis confirmed a cheese typology effect on the microbial loads of the wooden shelves investigat…

I complessi scultorei dell'abside della chiesa del Gesù a Casa Professa (1703-1721)

Il contributo descrive e analizza i complessi scultorei presenti nell'abside della chiesa del Gesù nella Casa Professa di Palermo, nell'intervallo di anni compreso tra il 1703 e il 1721, ad opera del pittore Antonino Grano e dello scultore Giacomo Serpotta, due degli artisti più affermati e apprezzati del tempo. L'opera in questione, nel suo complesso, può essere considerata come il punto di convergenza e di ulteriore sviluppo delle ricerche e delle esperienze che i due artisti stavano in quegli anni percorrendo.

Neighborhood characteristics and violence behind closed doors: The spatial overlap of child maltreatment and intimate partner violence

2018

In this study, we analyze first whether there is a common spatial distribution of child maltreatment (CM) and intimate partner violence (IPV), and second, whether the risks of CM and IPV are influenced by the same neighborhood characteristics, and if these risks spatially overlap. To this end we used geocoded data of CM referrals (N = 588) and IPV incidents (N = 1450) in the city of Valencia (Spain). As neighborhood proxies, we used 552 census block groups. Neighborhood characteristics analyzed at the aggregated level (census block groups) were: Neighborhood concentrated disadvantage (neighborhood economic status, neighborhood education level, and policing activity), immigrant concentration…

Walking Children Through a Minefield: How Professionals Experience Exploring Adverse Childhood Experiences

2017

Understanding the challenges of professionals in addressing child adversity is key to improving the detection, protection, and care of exposed children. We aimed to synthesize findings from qualitative studies of professionals’ lived experience of addressing child adversity. Through a systematic search, we identified eight qualitative studies and synthesized them using metaethnography. We generated three themes, “feeling inadequate,” “fear of making it worse,” and “facing evil,” and one overarching metaphor, “walking children through a minefield.” The professionals felt that they lacked the means necessary to explore child adversity, that they were apprehensive of worsening the child’s situ…

École : l'inégalité des parcours

1997

International audience; Depuis trente ans, l'accès aux études s'est généralisé : les deux tiers d'une classe d'âge sont bacheliers et accèdent aux études supérieures. Pourtant, les parcours scolaires traduisent encore fortement les différences sociales par le jeu des orientations, par le choix des options et par la valeur du diplôme obtenu.
