The Value of Media in the Acquisition of Master Degree Program: Students’ Assessment
2015
Rapid development of innovative processes characterizes the conditions of the scientific and technical revolution. The understanding about the place and role of the man in the innovative society also changes. Therefore the readiness of the social and individual consciousness to changes in all spheres of life (including education) and the acceptance of the novelties as a value are important. It testifies about a new orientation of education which applies to methods as well as their forms, content and aim. But is the preschool teacher ready to use media in her professional work? Does the acquisition of higher education promote it? The aim of the article is to study the use of the innovative t…
Inclusive Legal Positivism, Legal Interpretation, and Value-Judgments
2009
In this paper I put forward some arguments in defence of inclusive legal positivism. The general thesis that I defend is that inclusive positivism represents a more fruitful and interesting research program than that proposed by exclusive positivism. I introduce two arguments connected with legal interpretation in favour of my thesis. However, my opinion is that inclusive positivism does not sufficiently succeed in estranging itself from the more traditional legal positivist conceptions. This is the case, for instance, with regard to the value-freedom principle, which is commonly accepted by inclusive positivist scholars. In contrast with this approach, I try to show, in the concluding sect…
Do Children Cooperate Conditionally?:Adapting the Strategy Method for First-Graders
2020
We develop a public goods game (PGG) to measure cooperation and conditional cooperation in young children. Our design addresses several obstacles in adapting simultaneous and sequential PGGs to children who are not yet able to read or write, do not possess advanced abilities to calculate payoffs, and only have a very limited attention span. It features the combination of haptic offline explanation, fully standardized audiovisual instructions, computerized choices based on touchscreens, and a suitable incentive scheme. Applying our experimental protocol to 129 German first-graders, we find that already 6-year-olds cooperate conditionally and that the relative frequency of different cooperati…

La transformación del currículo en una sociedad diversa : ¿quién y cómo se decide el currículum?
2018
The purpose of this article is to show how, in the United States, some states and school districts are transforming their curriculum through ethnic studies. Ethnic studies exists as a result of unequal power relations in which historically marginalized groups have not had the power to define how education will serve their own communities. According to its activists, ethnic studies not only teaches about the cultures of diverse groups, but also reconstructs, the curriculum around the counter-narratives perspectives, epistemologies, and visions of groups that have been treated historically as if their experiences and perspectives were of lesser value. The article begins with a theoretical fra…
How Do Students Value the Importance of Twenty-first Century Skills?

Frameworks of twenty-first century skills have attained a central role in school development and curriculum changes all over the world. There is a common understanding of the need for meta-skills such as problem solving, reasoning, collaboration, and self-regulation.

Accordingly, they were asked to value and rank the twenty-first century skills listed in existing frameworks and pick out those they regarded as the most important they had learned.

2014
La programmazione pubblica regionale attraversa un momento di forte criticità interna legata al soggetto attuatore regionale, caratterizzata da una lentissima attuazione dei programmi operativi cofinanziati dalla Commissione Europea. In risposta alle emergenze economiche e sociali, l’amministrazione regionale necessita di strumenti in grado di comunicare efficacemente azioni e risultati che possono positivamente influenzare la vita sociale e civile della comunità regionale. In particolare, gli operatori economici e, in generale, tutti i portatori di interesse, basano i propri atteggiamenti e le proprie scelte sulle aspettative delle dinamiche attese nei settori economici e sociali in cui op…
