Insegnanti consapevoli e critici dell’azione didattica attraverso l’analisi SWOT
2020
The present contribution aims at collecting the outcomes achieved by 211 subjects, who are going to teach in primary and children’s school, who used the SWOT Analysis as a context investigation tool to plan, implement and evaluate classroom interventions. In particular, this paper analyzes and discusses the effectiveness of a training program for future teachers, attending the 3rd year of university internship, able to strengthen their critical awareness through a functional knowledge of the school environment and of pupils. The pre-experimental research, which covered nine months in the Academic Year 2017-2018, has actually increased the performance of the sample group, consisting of under…
Miron wśród prądów epoki
2017
The book by Marta Barańska, Twórczość Aleksandra Michaux (Mirona) wobec prądów ideowych i artystycznych XIX wieku (The work of Aleksander Michaux (Miron) against the ideological and artistic trends of the nineteenth century, Poznań 2016), is the first monograph of the “cursed poet” of the Positivist era, usually labeled a post-epigenetic epigone. The author revives the view of this work, presenting various lesser-known pieces by Miron (ballads, poems, dramas, prose sketches, publicistic texts) and embedding them in a wide intertextual space. The achivements of this second-grade, long-neglected poet acquire the value of modernity, seen as a collection of motifs, topos and themes, referring t…
How the father-daughter relationship affects the daughter's identity : a socio-psychological analysis of Sandra Cisneros's The House on Mango Street …
2012
Tutkielmassa analysoin isän vaikutusta tyttären identiteettiin Sandra Cisneroksen romaaneissa The House on Mango Street ja Caramelo. Yhdysvaltalainen Cisneros, jonka juuret ovat Meksikossa, kuvaa naisten asemaa Yhdysvaltain meksikolaistaustaisessa kulttuurissa. Aiemmissa Cisneros-tutkimuksissa on usein todettu Cisneroksen isä-kuvausten olevan positiivisempia kuin isät yleensä yhdysvaltalaisten naisten kirjoissa. Ensimmäinen tutkimuskysymyksistäni onkin analysoida mitkä tekijät vaikuttavat siihen, että Cisneroksen kuvaamat isät näyttäisivät olevan positiivempia hahmoja kuin isät yleensä tämän genren kirjallisuudessa. Lisäksi yksi tutkimuskysymyksistä on: mitä voimme päätellä isien merkitystä…

Students' abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts: The role of internet‐specific epistemic justifications
2021
Previous evaluation studies have rarely used authentic online texts and investigated upper secondary school students' use of evaluation criteria and deep reasoning. The associations between internet-specific epistemic justifications for knowing and credibility evaluation of online texts are not yet fully understood among adolescents. This study investigated upper secondary school students' (N = 372) abilities to evaluate self-selected authentic online texts and the role of internet-specific epistemic justifications in students' evaluation performance when solving a health-related information problem. Students selected three texts with Google Custom Search Engine and evaluated their credibil…

In this work, we present a virtual system architecture for training cyber security professionals with hands-on skills. The architecture is based on a VirtualBox virtualization environment. Guest machines are installed on an instance of VirtualBox. The installed environment offers a safe and isolated workbench for experiments. After installation and configuration of the environment, students perform a number of i…
Learner agency within the design of an EAP course
2015
To meet the demands of today’s society and working life, higher education should support the development of learner agency. How the agency of individual learners emerges in university courses and what kind of agency empowers the learners to face new challenges should be considered. In this article, the focus is on learner agency enabled and expressed on a higher education language course. One learner’s experiences of a blended English for Academic Purposes (EAP) course are explored and used to examine the design of the course. The data reveal that the learner’s views of language-use categories and of herself as a language user emerged as central parts of her agency. Although the learner was…
Attending to and fostering argumentation in whole class discussion
2018
Prior studies highlighted the importance of whole class discussion after student activities and have focused, for example, on teacher moves in supporting discussion. We characterize two processes in teacher-students interaction in argumentation discussions: attending to and fostering. These processes describe how student argumentation feeds teacher talk that in turn feeds student argumentation. We analysed video recordings of one whole class 7th grade lesson when students made geometric constructions and engaged in argumentation discussion. We elaborated on four themes in how the teacher talk attended to and fostered student argumentation. We argue that the concepts of attending to and fost…
