Funzione riflessiva e sostenibilità organizzativa: Verso un modello di comprensione e trasformazione del disegno istituzionale nelle organizzazioni s…
2018
Il lavoro presenta la “funzione riflessiva” come modello concettuale attraverso il quale concepire il benessere/malessere lavorativo in termini di epifenomeno di specifiche modalità di funzionamento e comportamento del sistema organizzativo. La “funzione riflessiva” delle organizzazioni non attiene alla competenza razionale di pensiero, non è solo un fatto individuale ma, soprattutto, non può ritenersi un assunto normale e consueto di funzionamento organizzativo; è, piuttosto, una rilevante eccezione che va pazientemente costruita e monitorata ogni giorno, a tutti i livelli dell’organizzazione, da quello direzionale a quello manageriale, fino ai ruoli operativi. The work introduces the "ref…
The authenticity of ‘authentic’ assessment some faculty perceptions
2017
The attempt to embed Authenticity within the learning process in higher education has been a driving principle within many pedagogical approaches to Higher Education developed over the past three decades. The desire to allow students to learn in a manner that closely resembles the way in which expertise is developed outside the academic environment is a central element of problem-based, inquiry-based and projectbased learning. Exploring the implications of authenticity for student achievement and the ways in which this should be assessed has led to innovative teaching methods and ways of evaluating student performance. Unfortunately, authenticity, and authentic assessment in particular, are…
Innovative Methodology to Improve the Quality of Electronic Engineering Formation Through Teaching Industrial Computer Engineering
2004
An innovative educational methodology adapted to the requirements of a new era with new societal and industrial challenges for electronic engineers is proposed in this paper. This active methodology, known as the Educational Innovation Project (EIP), is being studied in the Electronic Engineering (EE) degree of the Higher Technical School of Design Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain. The main objective of the EIP methodology is to improve the process of teaching and learning in order to increase student success. To accomplish this objective, the EIP method addresses various issues. From an organizational viewpoint, different structural aspects of the EE d…
An evaluation study on the embedding of reflective practice in the further education programme KigaDance for nursery teachers
2020
This article deals with the connection between theory and practice in the context of a further education programme (FEP) (KigaDance) for nursery teachers based on contemporary dance education. The ...
First report of grapevine fleck virus in vineyards of Bosnia and Herzegovina
2020
Grapevine is one of the most important fruit crops in Bosnia and Herzegovina with an annual production of around 40 thousand tons in 2018 (FAOSTAT, http://www.fao.org/ faostat/en/#data/QC). Production of grapevine in the country is mainly concentrated in vineyards in the Lištica and Mostar regions of Herzegovina with the two predominant autochthonous cultivars ‘Žilavka’ and ‘Blatina’. Grapevine fleck virus (GFkV) from the genus Maculavirus in the family Tymoviridae is a phloem limited virus with a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome (Dreher et al. 2012). GFkV is associated with fleck disease of Vitis spp. In order to investigate the current status of GFkV in Bosnia and Herzegovina, 80…
A Review on Multi-GNSS for Earth Observation and Emerging Applications
2022
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has drawn the attention of scientists and users all over the world for its wide-ranging Earth observations and applications. Since the end of May 2022, more than 130 satellites are available for fully global operational satellite navigation systems, such as BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), Galileo, GLONASS and GPS, which have been widely used in positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), e.g., precise orbit determination and location-based services. Recently, the refracted, reflected, and scattered signals from GNSS can remotely sense the Earth’s surface and atmosphere with potential applications in environmental remote sensing. In this pap…
Horizon: Resilience – Design of a Serious Game for Ecological Momentary Intervention for Depression
2021
Depression is the world’s most prevalent mental disorder and the primary source of disability adjusted life years (DALY). While traditional face-to-face therapies have been shown to be effective, alternative delivery methods, e.g. internet-based therapies, have been investigated to overcome barriers to access, such as lack of availability of therapists and infrastructure. This article presents the design of a mobile serious game as a novel psychological momentary ecological intervention for depressive symptoms. We discuss how selected principles and techniques of common psychological frameworks used to tackle depression, namely Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (including Behavioral Activation) …
Scale-up and viscosity effects on gas–liquid mass transfer rates in unbaffled stirred tanks
2018
Abstract The interest in the process industry on unbaffled stirred tanks has greatly expanded in the last years because they may bring about significant advantages in a number of applications, including biochemical, food and pharmaceutical processes where the presence of baffles is undesirable for several reasons. Despite their application potential, unbaffled vessels still lack fundamental information, due to the fact that only recently their capabilities have started being dug out. The lack of information on scale up effects is possibly the main reason hindering practical applications. In this work the influence of vessel size and liquid viscosity on the mass transfer performance in unbaf…
Holding the Road: Away from Edmund Wilson and Mary McCarthy, by Reuel K. Wilson
2020
A sad reflection of the current state of American publishing is that Reuel Wilson had to publish privately the autobiography under review. And yet no book could be further away from a vanity public...
Lipid chaperones and associated diseases: a group of chaperonopathies defining a new nosological entity with implications for medical research and pr…
2020
AbstractFatty acid–binding proteins (FABPs) are lipid chaperones assisting in the trafficking of long-chain fatty acids with functions in various cell compartments, including oxidation, signaling, gene-transcription regulation, and storage. The various known FABP isoforms display distinctive tissue distribution, but some are active in more than one tissue. Quantitative and/or qualitative changes of FABPs are associated with pathological conditions. Increased circulating levels of FABPs are biomarkers of disorders such as obesity, insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Deregulated expression and malfunction of FABPs can result from genetic alterations or posttranslational mo…
