La competittività di una destinazione turistica
2013
Measuring destination competitiveness and identifying its determinants are strategic goals for pol-icy makers and tourism stakeholders. In order to do so, the availability of valid and reliable moni-toring tools is requested. In this context quantitative measurement tools, such as composite indi-cators, able to account for complexity and providing easily interpretable measures, represent a useful option. Nowadays composite indicators are commonly used for these aims but some criticism is suggested on how this happens. In this paper we provide some definitions of destination competitiveness and focus on related measurement approaches. In particular, supply-side competitiveness is distinguish…
Analisi comparata di tematismi e sotto categorie di analisi per i principali indicatori statistici nel turismo
2021
According to scientific literature, there is a gap in the statistical analysis of tourism due to missing data or poorly structured statistical information production services. This information, which can be classified as public goods, is currently managed by the public sector and national statistical systems. This article aims to deepen, in the literature, the main dimensions for the analysis of tourism divided into themes and subcategories. Through the use of the analysis methodology with the Leximancer software, content analysis was carried out on 202 scientific articles extracted from international literature through a selection of keywords of over 700 terms. The study returns to the the…
Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range
2021
Qvenild T, Fjeld E, Fjellheim A, Hammar J, Hesthagen T and Lakka H-K. 2021. Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range. Fauna norvegica 41: 50–88. The Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus has a circumpolar distribution and the Scandes (Fennoscandian Mountains) marks its southernmost limit in Europe. Within this area, 391 natural and 88 regulated lakes with L. arcticus have been identified, of which 87% are above the treeline. The lakes hosting L. arcticus decrease in altitude from south to north, which results from its temperature preferences. The majority of the locations are at a lower lake air t…

Water and Energy Saving in Urban Water Systems: The ALADIN Project
2016
The ALADIN project was aimed at contributing to environmental and energy sustainability of the urban water system by means of a decision support tool able to allow an evaluation of the energy impact related to each different macro-sectors of urban water cycle highlighting the main energy flows and to assess the system energy balance and identify the possible energy-efficient solutions. Moreover the tool suggests the most efficient actions in reducing water losses. In the present paper the main features of the developed tool are presented. (C) 2016 The Authors.

Validating of a hetero- and self-evaluation tool for teaching organization
2021
Il contributo presenta uno strumento di etero-auto-valutazione della capacità di organizzazione dell’insegnamento in classe, che è stato usato per misurare negli insegnanti in formazione le abilità di previsione e sviluppo di un intervento didattico, di regolazione e riflessione sulla pratica. Osservare e decidere, pensare che cosa, perché e come insegnare, progettare e valutare in modo autentico, sono operazioni complesse e determinanti per creare l’humus organizzativo e metodologico che caratterizza lo sviluppo professionale dell’insegnante, anche riguardo alle competenze comunicative e riflessive (Perrenoud, 2012; Conole, 2014; Panke, 2019). La rating scale, con le azioni da osservare, è…
Funzionalità di uno strumento di osservazione per progettare interventi educativi
2023
Il contributo presenta una guida di osservazione costruita secondo l’International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF, 2001; 2007), per la conferma o modifica del Profilo di Funzionamento degli alunni di scuola primaria in situazione di disabilità e per la formulazione del relativo Piano Educativo Individualizzato (PEI) da parte degli insegnanti. La guida per l’insegnante è stata preparata partendo da alcuni recenti strumenti di osservazione. È stata effettuata una prima validazione dello strumento su un campione di insegnanti di scuola primaria (n=611); i risultati delle analisi mostrano una buona validità di costrutto rispetto ai domini di contenuto dell’ICF e ai re…
Relationship between family educational styles and social value of education: reflections of a study
2018
The goal of this study is to analyze the relationship between the social value that the families give to education of their sons and daughters, and the family educational styles. For this, we apply 4103 questionnaires of evaluation of Family Educational Styles (EEF) of Bisquert (2017). We used 5 context variables of the same questionnaire because of their conceptual relationship with the evaluation dimensions of Subjective Social Value of Education (VSESubjective) of Jornet, Perales and Sánchez Delgado (2011). The association was estimated by crosstab procedure, and Pearson’s chi-square coefficient. The results reveal the significant association in two of the four dimensions of VSESubjectiv…
Audit Measurement of Crisis Communication Preparedness across Different Branches of Government : Sharing Experiences Gained in Finland
2018
An audit measurement of crisis communication preparedness was conducted for 67 organizations, mainly on the national level, in Finland. This unique project was one of the ways to implement new crisis communication regulations getting into force a year earlier. Its purpose was to strengthen central government communication in incidents and emergencies. The audit consisted of a digital survey in the participating organizations and a reflection meeting on the level of each of the 14 branches involved. The indicators were customized taking the crisis communication scorecard, developed in an international project, as a basis. In addition, several meetings were arranged to facilitate related inte…
