Expressive writing and guidance interview as educational tecniques for building high school students’ professional life Project.
2018
Professional guidance is an inescapable duty of the teachers who are already engaged at school teaching curricular disciplines. The students, at the end of the high school, need a teacher-tutor who knows them well and how to use valid tools to assist them in the construction of their professional life project. Without being specialists in professional guidance, teachers can learn to use the “SeCo” methodology (“Expressive Writing and Guidance Interview”) to accompany their students in the delicate process that leads them to choose a specific training-professional option. In this article, after mentioning the theories of “personal growth through writing about oneself” built by Pennebaker and…
Refamilisation in the broadband society – the effects of ICTs on family solidarity in Finland
2021
In this article we explore the effects that new information and communication technologies (ICTs) have on family relations in Finland. The idea of ‘new connectivities’ works as a starting point for the study directing attention to ICT-mediated forms of being together with distant family members. The research data consists of 22 student reports encompassing a total of 133 informants from extended Finnish families. Extended group interview (EGI) technique was developed and used for data collection in order to grasp the underlying social practices and values behind the use of ICTs in extended families.

Orientare alla scelta post-diploma con la metodologia “SeCo”
2018
I tentativi di collegare coerentemente le esperienze formative vissute, le competenze possedute nel presente e le aspettative formativo-professionali attestano negli studenti liceali di 17-18 anni la presenza di un bisogno fondamentale di orientamento. Essi non possono recuperare il senso unitario del loro itinerario formativo-professionale se non decidono liberamente di progettarlo. Il progetto di vita professionale dà ai giovani la direzione di senso in cui rendersi protagonisti consapevoli delle loro scelte. La «scrittura espressiva» proposta in senso prospettico, ovvero volta alla descrizione di alcuni aspetti della propria personalità e delle aspettative professionali riguardanti possi…

Practices in research, surveillance and control of neglected tropical diseases by One Health approaches: A survey targeting scientists from French-sp…
2021
One health (OH) approaches have increasingly been used in the last decade in the fight against zoonotic neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). However, descriptions of such collaborations between the human, animal and environmental health sectors are still limited for French-speaking tropical countries. The objective of the current survey was to explore the diversity of OH experiences applied to research, surveillance and control of NTDs by scientists from French-speaking countries, and discuss their constraints and benefits. Six zoonotic NTDs were targeted: echinococcoses, trypanosomiases, leishmaniases, rabies, Taenia solium cysticercosis and leptospiroses. Invitations to fill in an online q…
A Systematic Way of Structuring Real-World Multiobjective Optimization Problems
2023
In recent decades, the benefits of applying multiobjective optimization (MOO) methods in real-world applications have rapidly increased. The MOO literature mostly focuses on problem-solving, typically assuming the problem has already been correctly formulated. The necessity of verifying the MOO problem and the potential impacts of having an incorrect problem formulation on the optimization results are not emphasized enough in the literature. However, verification is crucial since the optimization results will not be meaningful without an accurate problem formulation, not to mention the resources spent in the optimization process being wasted. In this paper, we focus on the MOO problem struc…
