Sicily: a geological laboratory
2018
“Geologists at risk of extinction”: this is the opening sentence of an article of March 29, 2016 of “Il Sole 24ORE”, (1) that fits well the difficult situation that this professional category is experiencing in recent years. It has been witnessed, in fact, a strong reduction in the educational offer in both the school and university system, with the number of Departments in Earth Sciences dropped from 29 to 8, accompanied by a progressive reduction in enrollment and graduates, from 1140 in 2002 to 586 in 2008 (2). Numbers that make you think, especially if contextualized to the Italian territory, widely characterized by the hydrogeological, seismic and volcanological risk, in whose preventi…
Perceived teaching efficacy and coeducational vs. single-sex grouping in physical education teachers
2021
In many countries, sex equality is an essential aim of physical education (PE) curricula, while the PE grouping practices are widely hetero-normative. As far as there is a discrepancy between the curricula and practice, equality will not fully take place. This study examined the associations between PE teachers’ perceived teaching efficacy (student engagement, instruction, class management) and preferences for single-sex (i.e. juridical sex) vs. coeducational grouping in PE. The analysis, based on a cross-sectional online survey of 175 Finnish PE teachers, showed that higher perceived class management was associated with the stronger preferences for single-sex PE. Associations of teacher’s …
Students' physical activity and school-related social factors
2017
The school-based promotion of physical activity (PA) is a great opportunity to reach the majority of school-aged children. Aside from many physical health benefits, participation in physical activities can foster social well-being and interaction. The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in PA and school-related social factors, as well as their associations in school-aged children in schools which participated in the Finnish Schools on the Move programme and its pilot phase in 2010–2012. Furthermore, school-based actions for PA promotion and staff experiences in the pilot schools were investigated. The data were collected as part of the follow-up of the national Finnish Schools …

La collaborazione scuola-università nella formazione dei futuri maestri. Una ricerca svolta presso il corso di laurea magistrale in Scienze della For…
2017
La collaborazione tra la scuola e l'università nella formazione iniziale degli insegnanti di scuola primaria e dell'infanzia si esplica principalmente attraverso il tirocinio e i laboratori, dove si creano anche delle occasioni propizie per impostare e svolgere insieme delle ricerche in campo didattico. Un'attività di ricerca, promossa autonomamente dall'università, dovrebbe affiancare la sua azione formativa per verificarne periodicamente l'efficacia, ogni volta che vengono introdotte delle innovazioni significative. In questo breve intervento, si riportano i primi risultati della quarta ricerca svolta negli ultimi dodici anni sull'efficacia formativa del corso di studi in Scienze della Fo…
Inclusion at the time of school-work alternance: new challenges and perspectives for connection between school, formation and world of job
2019
The historical moment that we are experiencing is characterized by several technological changes as well as by demographic ones. So, the world of work is even more flexible and in continuous evolution. It follows that it’s increasingly present the need to promote an authentic knowledge that can combine theory and practice, knowledges and abilities with the aim to develop competences. So, school becomes the educative agency that has to combine formative needs of individual with competences required by the job market, with the purpose of offering equal opportunities to all its students; this is the perspective offered by Capability Approach, whose declination in a scholastic context can allow…
"Write in English on your notebook" : analysis of creative writing exercises in a Finnish EFL workbook
2016
Vaikka luovalla kirjoittamisella on tutkittu olevan paljon etuja vieraan ja toisen kielen oppimisessa, Perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelman perusteet (2004) ei tarjoa täsmällisiä ohjeita luovan kirjoittamisen opetukseen englannin kielen oppiaineessa. Täten luovan kirjoittamisen tehtävien suunnittelu on opettajien ja oppimateriaalien valmistajien vastuulla. Oppikirjat ovat edelleen hyvin laajasti käytettyjä oppimateriaaleja, joten niiden tutkiminen tarjoaa tietoa myös opetuksesta yleensä. Tutkielman päämääränä on selvittää luovan kirjoittamisen tehtävien esiintymistä yhdessä suomalaisessa englannin kielen tehtäväkirjassa. Tätä tutkittiin kahden tutkimuskysymyksen avulla, joista ensimmäinen kosk…
Praca domowa ucznia - konieczność versus zbędność
2019
Praca domowa ucznia stanowi integralną część procesu dydaktyczno-wychowawczego. Dopiero w połączeniu z pracą domową lekcja szkolna tworzy pełną jednostkę procesu nauczania. Pogląd na rolę i wartość domowej pracy ucznia ulegał na przestrzeni dziejów nauczania szkolnego licznym zmianom. Aktualnie kwestia prac domowych jest szeroko dyskutowana, zarówno przez rodziców, jak i nauczycieli. Niektóre szkoły całkowicie z nich rezygnują, a inne ich bronią jako ważnego narzędzia edukacyjnego. Celem artykułu jest wyeksponowanie elementów potwierdzających konieczność pozostawienia prac domowych jako obowiązujących w procesie kształcenia oraz wskazanie czynników negujących potrzebę dalszego ich istnienia.
