Is School a Better Environment Than Home for Digital Game-Based Learning? The Case of GraphoGame
2015
This study investigated how the use of an online reading game differs in home and school environments. First and second graders (N = 194) participated in an 8-week training during which they used the reading program GraphoGame either at home or at school under the supervision of parents or teachers. Child participants were recommended by parents and teachers recruited from the list of GraphoGame users, and adults decided whether the training took place at home or at school. We measured the frequency and duration of playing, children’s engagement, development of reading skill and reading interest, and adult supportive involvement. The results revealed that children who played GraphoGame at s…
Apprendere come insegnare ai bambini a comporre testi sintetici e chiari
2022
Nella scuola primaria l’itinerario di conquista della capacità di comporre testi chiari, corretti e significativi, è spesso denso di difficoltà che finiscono con il rallentare le diverse acquisizioni dell’alunno; in mancanza di interventi tempestivi le problematiche si riversano negli ordini di scuola successivi. La scrittura è un processo costruttivo e dinamico che vede l’apprendista scrittore impegnato in un compito di risoluzione di problemi, con lo scopo di realizzare un testo che risulti comprensibile, semplice nella struttura e completo nel suo senso. Se adeguatamente stimolato, l’alunno impara a progettare il testo, a pianificare e organizzare le informazioni, a sintetizzare gli argo…
Situazioni didattiche per pensare e ripensare criticamente la conoscenza
2022
Un obiettivo fondamentale da considerare a scuola come all’università è l’esercizio della capacità critica. Le abilità di pensiero critico sono sempre più necessarie per insegnare ai giovani a comprendere, a pensare meglio usando strategie di controllo ed autoanalisi della conoscenza. Il pensiero critico è importante nei contesti sociali e interpersonali in cui devono essere assunte scelte adeguate, autonome e indipendenti. Leggere e scrivere sono strumenti che aiutano gli studenti a ripensare e chiarire, discernere e valutare, interpretare significati in rapido cambiamento. Dopo una breve rassegna di studi, sono approfonditi gli obiettivi e le azioni per potenziare il pensiero critico negl…
Processing limitations in L2 fluency: Analysis of inaccuracies in lexical access
2017
Oral fluency is widely included in second language assessments, but its relationship to language proficiency is not straightforward. In the current study, data gathered in an experimental setting were examined with an exploratory fluency analysis. The aim was to examine the relationship between fluency of lexical access and proficiency in foreign language (L2). Fluency of the lexical access was studied by analysing inaccuracies in one word recognition and one word retrieval task. To see if proficiency had an effect on the number and the type of inaccuracies, lexical access tasks were carried out for 563 Finnish school children from grades 4, 8, and 11 in their L2 (English). Proficiency in L…
Information and communication technologies (econometric approaches about the productivity paradox)
1999
D'un intérêt encore récent pour [analyse économique, la diffusion des Technologies del Information et de la Communication (TIC) dans les économies modernes relance un débat déjà ancien sur les liens entre la croissance, la productivité et l'emploi. De nombreuses études empiriques sur l'impact de ces nouvelles technologies en terme de productivité, notamment de productivité du travail et de productivité totale des facteurs, débouchent sur des résultats ambigus. C 'est ce que l'on appelle aujourd'hui le « paradoxe de productivité ». Le principal objectif du travail présenté ici est de donner une vue d'ensemble, d'une manière non exhaustive et modeste, sur les différentes approches économétriq…

On the distribution of lightning current among interconnected grounding systems in medium voltage grids
2018
This paper presents the results of a first investigation on the effects of lightning stroke on medium voltage installations' grounding systems, interconnected with the metal shields of the Medium Voltage (MV) distribution grid cables or with bare buried copper ropes. The study enables us to evaluate the distribution of the lightning current among interconnected ground electrodes in order to estimate if the interconnection, usually created to reduce ground potential rise during a single-line-to-ground fault, can give place to dangerous situations far from the installation hit by the lightning stroke. Four different case studies of direct lightning stroke are presented and discussed: (1) two …
Neo Open Innovation in the Digital Economy : Harnessing Soft Innovation Resources
2018
Successive increases in R&D that creates new functionality are essential for global competitiveness. However, unexpectedly, as a consequence of the two-faced nature of information and communication technology (ICT), excessive R&D results in a marginal productivity decline leading to a decrease in digital value creation. In order to overcome such a dilemma, global ICT firms have been endeavoring to transform themselves into disruptive business model. Neo open innovation that harnesses soft innovation resources may be a solution to this critical question. On the basis of an empirical analysis focusing on forefront endeavors to this dilemma by global ICT firms, this paper attempted to demonstr…
A systematic literature review of the transition to the circular economy in business organizations: Obstacles, catalysts and ambivalences
2021
There is a need for a transition from unsustainable linear business models to a more sustainable circular approach, called the circular economy. To promote this need, a deeper understanding of which issues hinder organizations’ transition to the circular economy and which ones catalyse it is needed. A systematic literature review was performed on the business implementation of the circular economy and 69 articles covering the topic were found. The review identifies different types of catalyst, obstacles and ambivalent factors influencing circular economy implementation in business. This study contributes to research on circular economy implementation at business organizations by providing u…
