Apprendimento del tedesco: nuovi approcci nel training della pronuncia sotto il profilo della learner identity

2019

Utilizzare la propria voce fa parte dell’espressione dell’identità personale. Colui che intraprende lo studio di una lingua straniera si trova talora difronte alla difficoltà di articolare suoni e strutture prosodiche differenti dalla sua lingua nativa e altresì lontani dal proprio vissuto: strani ed estranei. Inoltre pregiudizi ricorrenti possono inibire l’attitudine dell’apprendente nei confronti della lingua che sta imparando. Questo contributo propone nuovi approcci alla lingua tedesca orale, diversi da quelli offerti dai libri di testo in uso nelle scuole italiane. Essi partono dal suono della lingua nella sua interezza e tengono conto di ritmo, struttura sillabica e sforzo articolator…

Towards a sociology of the mobile phone

2005

Use of the mobile phone is an immensely significant social and cultural phenomenon. However, market hype and utopian dreams greatly exaggerate its importance. The fundamental issue for sociology is the process of change. Bound up with contemporary issues of change, the mobile phone is a prime object for sociological attention both at the macro and micro levels of analysis. This article considers the strengths and weaknesses of four methods for studying the sociality of the mobile phone (social demography; political economy; conversation, discourse and text analysis; and ethnography), the different kinds of knowledge they produce, and the interests they represent. Recent ethnographic researc…

How do native speakers of Russian evaluate yes/no questions produced by Finnish L2 learners?

2010

This study analyzes native Russian speakers’ evaluation of seven Russian yes/noquestions each produced by Finnish speakers in two sets of recordings (during a stay in Russia and after it). The Finnish speakers were six female university students of Russian. This research question is interesting because the two typologically unrelated languages differ in the prosody of yes/no-questions. In Russian a yes/no-question is created from a lexically and syntactically corresponding statement by means of intonation, whereas in Finnish the cue for questioning is an interrogative particle – ko/-kö instead of prosody. Hence, native Finnish speakers are likely to have difficulties in pronouncing Russian …

The precursors of double dissociation between reading and spelling in a transparent orthography.

2016

Research and clinical practitioners have mixed views whether reading and spelling difficulties should be combined or seen as separate. This study examined the following: (a) if double dissociation between reading and spelling can be identified in a transparent orthography (Finnish) and (b) the cognitive and noncognitive precursors of this phenomenon. Finnish-speaking children (n = 1963) were assessed on reading fluency and spelling in grades 1, 2, 3, and 4. Dissociation groups in reading and spelling were formed based on stable difficulties in grades 1–4. The groups were compared in kindergarten phonological awareness, rapid automatized naming, letter knowledge, home literacy environment, a…

A cultural comparison of mindfulness and student performance: Evidence from university students in five countries

2021

Societal and cultural norms are important in shaping how individuals live, study, and work. Of particular interest in recent research is the role of mindfulness, defined as the ability to focus on the present moment, and how it can impact cognitive function and productivity. This study examines the relationship between scholastic achievement and mindfulness among university students in China, Finland, Germany, South Africa, and the United States. Comparisons between countries with respect to self-reported measures of mindfulness, test anxiety levels, and phone usage are analyzed. These measures are used to determine whether mindfulness affects student performance in introductory economics c…

Zagrożenie fonoholizmem wśród dzieci we weczesnej fazie dorastania

2019

To niesamowite, jak zmieniła się rzeczywistość i funkcjonowanie żyjących w niej ludzi, odkąd telefon komórkowy pojawił się na świecie. W chwili obecnej wielu nie wyobraża sobie własnej egzystencji bez tego wynalazku. Odnosi się to również do dzieci. Te, ze względu na nieukształtowaną jeszcze do końca strukturę swej osobowości, w największym stopniu narażone są na negatywne konsekwencje korzystania z tego medium. Rozdział zawiera wyniki badań sondażowych przeprowadzonych wśród rodziców dzieci w wieku 12-13 lat, dotyczące ilości czasu, jaki młodzi ludzie poświęcają we wczesnej fazie dorastania różnym aktywnościom związanym z telefonem. Ponadto prezentuje materiał empiryczny związany z kontrol…

SMART SfM: SALINAS ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM

2017

Abstract. In these last years, there has been an increasing use of the Structure from Motion (SfM) techniques applied to Cultural Heritage. The accessibility of SfM software can be especially advantageous to users in non-technical fields or to those with limited resources. Thanks to SfM using, everyone can make with a digital camera a 3D model applied to an object of both Cultural Heritage, and physically Environment, and work arts, etc. One very interesting and useful application can be envisioned into museum collection digitalization. In the last years, a social experiment has been conducted involving young generation to live a social museum using their own camera to take pictures and vid…

3D RECONSTRUCTION-REVERSE ENGINEERING- DIGITAL FABRICATION OF THE EGYPTIAN PALERMO STONE USING BY SMARTPHONE AND LIGHT STRUCTURED SCANNER

2018

Abstract. This paper presents a pipeline that has been developed to acquire a shape with particular features both under the geometric and radiometric aspects. In fact, the challenge was to build a 3D model of the black Stone of Palermo, where the oldest Egyptian history was printed with the use of hieroglyphs. The dark colour of the material and the superficiality of the hieroglyphs' groove have made the acquisition process very complex to the point of having to experiment with a pipeline that allows the structured light scanner not to lose the homologous points in the 3D alignment phase. For the texture reconstruction we used a last generation smartphone.
