Engaging with mathematics in the kindergarten. Orchestrating a fairy tale through questioning and use of tools
2013
ABSTRACTThe aim of this study is to analyse how a kindergarten teacher orchestrated a mathematical activity involving a fairy tale. Taking a sociocultural perspective on learning and development, naturally occurring talk-in-interaction has been analysed in order to scrutinise the subtleties of the orchestration. The fairy tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears was used both as context for the activity, but also as a means through which mathematical concepts were engaged with. The analysis shows that the orchestration bears characteristics of questioning and use of tools such as voice, facial expressions, and concrete materials. The orchestration is also characterised by sincere planning in adv…
Música [religiosa] moderna en Corea del Norte / Modern North Korean [Religious] Music
2017
Music is a field where North Korea has been for decades engaging in consistent though not extensive international exchanges. Music is there a major national art form, on which a considerable amount of national resourcesis devoted, and the quality of musical education is high. Its practical uses are almost solely devoted to maintaining the legitimacy of the state and its leading dynasty up to a level where the distinction between nationalism and religion visibly evaporates. The musical establishment is hierarchically organized. At the top are court orchestras, such as the former Unhasu Orchestra, or the currently favoured Moranbong Band, whose style and repertoire is closely controlled by th…

Biografia del compositore e direttore d'orchestra Carlo Pedrotti (1817-1893)
Il direttore d'orchestra nel sistema produttivo del teatro d'opera italiano di fine Ottocento. Un caso eloquente: Emilio Usiglio a Firenze nel 1892
2014
Attraverso l'analisi dei sistemi che regolarono l'organizzazione di una stagione operistica a Firenze nel 1892, l'articolo riflette sulla progressiva affermazione del direttore d'orchestra come figura centrale della macchina produttiva.
"queste opere eminentemente sinfoniche e spettacolose": Giacomo Meyerbeer’s influence on Italian Opera orchestras
2008
Si prende in esame l'influsso del compositore Giacomo Meyerbeer sull'opera italiana e, in conseguenza, sulle orchestre dei teatri d'opera italiani. La prima parte guarda in generale alla recezione della sua musica in Italia e descrive il suo impatto sul sistema produttivo; la seconda parte discute attraverso specifici esempi l'influenza della sua musica sulla trasformazione delle orchestre dei teatri d'opera durante l'Ottocento. This study analyses Giacomo Meyerbeer's influence on Italian Opera and, consequently, on Italian orchestras. The first part looks at Meyerbeer's reception in Italy and describes his impact on the system of opera production there; the second part discusses the subseq…

Designing Playful Inquiry-Based Mathematical Learning Activities for Kindergarten
2018
This study addresses issues related to the process of designing mathematical activities for kindergarten based on the constructs of playful learning and inquiry. The mathematical activities were designed for 5-year-old children in a Norwegian kindergarten setting. In order to address this design process, we focus at issues of mediating design principles and ideas to kindergarten teachers, who are the ones to orchestrate and implement the mathematical activities with children. The study is situated within a design research methodology in which observations, written and personal communication have been used as sources of data. Our analysis shows that the kindergarten teacher closely followed …
Kindergarten teachers’ orchestration of mathematical activities afforded by technology: agency and mediation
2016
This paper focuses on kindergarten teachers’ interactions with young children during mathematical learning activities involving the use of digital tools. We aim to characterise the teachers’ roles and actions in these activities and extend considerations of teachers’ orchestrations current in the research literature with regard to agency and mediation. Our analysis of teacher-children-digital tool interaction reveals that the kindergarten teachers took three roles in their work with young children, which we call Assistant, Mediator and Teacher roles. These roles were used interchangeably and purposefully by the kindergarten teachers. With regard to agency and mediation, we argue that agency…
UWSIO: Towards automatic orchestration for the deployment of 5G monitoring services from bare metal
2018
The next generation mobile networks 5G are currently being intensively developed and standardized globally, with commercial prototyping 5G connections already emerging. At the 5G system level, one of the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) defining 5G is substantially reduced service creation time for 5G network operators and/or service providers to increase the system efficiency and thus reduce operational costs. In this work, we focus on realize this challenging KPI in terms of speedy creation of monitoring services for 5G operators from scratch (no operating system pre-installed). A new 5G infrastructure orchestrator UWSIO is proposed to achieve fully automated deployment of 5G monitoring …
