Facebook as a Small World: a topological hypothesis

2011

Facebook is becoming a pervasive entity as its social, cultural and media ramifications grow deep and entrenched in our daily life. Its nature of a complex system of interactions, bearing a strong similarity to networks built through individual choices and systems shaped by evolu- tionary pressure, makes it an interesting target for research. Scale-free Small World networks, recently popularized by Barabasi, are a topological class pertaining to both these domains, whose members have resilience to disruption and short intermediate connections between nodes. In this paper we show that the topological structure of a specific subset of Facebook, gathered using data from a self-report online qu…

In this paper we present a study to know the valuation of school mediation as an educational strategy taking into account the views of students in five schools in secondary Valencia, where the formal mediation process has been active for at least two years. It also seeks to identify the strengths and weaknesses identified.To achieve the objectives it has collected information from 593 students through an ad hoc difference between issues that all students must answer questionnaire; questions addressed only the students who have gone to mediation service; and finally issues to respond only the students who have acted as mediators.Through descriptive exploratory study conducted, is highlighted…

Alle Wege Führen Zum Text

2016

The intention of this chapter is to review the development of linguistic research during the twentieth century in Europe and the United States, in order to show that the genesis of text linguistics as a comprehensive theoretical framework was necessary, considering the events from a post-eventum perspective. Firstly, structural linguistics is presented as well as its main exponents; secondly, generative linguistics is discussed; thirdly, the genesis and the development of text linguistics is presented. Concerning the structural linguistics, the key issues investigated by 4 linguists (namely, de Saussure, Benveniste, Hjelmslev and Bloomfield) are summarized. Concerning the generative linguis…

School adjustment in children who stutter: The quality of the student-teacher relationship, peer relationships, and children's academic and behaviora…

2020

Abstract Introduction The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of the student-teacher relationship, peer relationship, emotional and behavioral outcomes and academic performance in school adjustment of children who stutter. Methods The convenience sample consisted of 536 children – 62 affected by stuttering and 474 in the control group – and 36 prevalent teachers from six primary and secondary schools in Northwest Italy. Children were assessed with a sociometric questionnaire. Teacher evaluations were also used to assess their perception of their relationships with the student (Student-Teacher Relationship Scale), children’ behavior (Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire), an…

Discovering the Senses of an Ambiguous Word by Clustering its Local Contexts

2005

As has been shown recently, it is possible to automatically discover the senses of an ambiguous word by statistically analyzing its contextual behavior in a large text corpus. However, this kind of research is still at an early stage. The results need to be improved and there is considerable disagreement on methodological issues. For example, although most researchers use clustering approaches for word sense induction, it is not clear what statistical features the clustering should be based on. Whereas so far most researchers cluster global co-occurrence vectors that reflect the overall behavior of a word in a corpus, in this paper we argue that it is more appropriate to use local context v…

Droghe leggere e criminalità organizzata: una relazione problematica

2022

Il contributo analizza il tema dei rapporti tra trattamento penale delle droghe c.d. “leggere” e contrasto alla criminalità organizzata dedita al narcotraffico, con riguardo all’ordinamento europeo, internazionale e di alcuni Paesi dell’UE (Spagna, Portogallo, Grecia, Germania e Italia). Seguendo un approccio di tipo integrato, all’analisi del dato normativo si affianca la descrizione della fenomenologia dei traffici e la valutazione dei primi effetti che le riforme antiproibizioniste entrate in vigore in alcuni ordinamenti del Nord e del Sud America hanno prodotto sul fronte del mercato illecito. Il fine è di evidenziare i punti di forza e di debolezza dei modelli di depenalizzazione, tene…

Escenarios tecnológicos con dispositivos móviles para la acción educativa. Tendencias y vínculos con la imagen

2021

Presentamos un acercamiento a los escenarios educativos con TIC en la actualidad, en concreto tecnologías portables y modelos pedagógicos de colaboración complementarios a ellas, propios del constructivismo. La capacidad de aprendizaje que estos pueden llegar a suscitar, en cualquier momento y en cualquier lugar, refleja una realidad tangible en nuestra sociedad móvil. Nos referimos a los PLE Entornos Personales de Aprendizaje, BYOD Bring Your Own Device, la Gamificación, Flipped Classroom y la Realidad Aumentada y la Realidad Virtual. Se realiza una revisión de literatura de propuestas pedagógicas destacables, a través de algunos de los principales actores que las abordan en España. En cad…

A Study on the Usage of Smartphone Apps in Fire Scenarios - Comparison between GDACSmobile and SmartRescue Apps

2015

In this paper, we present a thorough overview of the two recently developed applications in the field of emergency management. The applications titled GDACSmobile and SmartRescue are using mobile app and smartphone sensors as the main functionality respectively. Furthermore, we argue the differences and similarities of both applications and highlight their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, a critical scenario for fire emergency in a music festival is designed and the applicability of the features of each application in supporting the emergency management procedure is discussed. It is also argued how the aforementioned applications can support each other during emergencies and what the pote…
