Parent and Teacher Ratings of Behavioral Executive Functioning for Students With Dyslexia.
2020
Research exploring behavioral ratings of executive functioning (EF) for children and adolescents with dyslexia is scarce, which limits researchers, clinicians, educators, and parents from understanding and best supporting these students at home and/or school. Using the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, Second Edition (BRIEF-2) rating scale to measure participants’ EF behaviors in home and school settings, a primary objective of this study was to examine the EF of Spanish children and adolescents with dyslexia ( n = 78) and to compare their EF with typically developing (TD) peers ( n = 82). The study also sought to examine agreements and disagreements among teacher and parent…
Preparing students to participate to the didactic activities of university teacher
2016
«Student Voice» è un movimento pedagogico nato negli anni Novanta nei Paesi di lingua inglese (Stati Uniti, Canada, Inghilterra e Australia): esso sostiene la partecipazione attiva e responsabile degli studenti che frequentano la scuola e l’università nella didattica dei docenti, nella ricerca universitaria e nelle politiche educative e culturali che li riguardano. Nella ricerca sperimentale qui presentata, si è voluta prestare attenzione alla partecipazione degli studenti universitari (n. 33) alle attività didattiche di un docente di pedagogia sperimentale. Si è scelto di adottare due metodi d’intervento: la scrittura espressiva, come metodo di analisi del futuro prefigurato nelle aspettat…
Particle Physics in High School: A Diagnose Study
2016
Abstract The science learning process improves when the contents are connected to students' lives. Particle physics has had a great impact in our society in the last years and has changed the theoretical picture about matter fundamental dynamics. Thus, we think that academic contents about matter components and interactions should be updated. With this study we aim to characterize the level of knowledge of high school students about this topic. We built a test with questions about classical atomic models, particle physics, recent discoveries, social implications and students opinions about it. Contrary to our first suspicion, students' answers show a high variability. They have new physics …
The Perception of Not-for-Profit Organisations on Risks in Partnership with Czech, Sicilian and Castilian-Leonese Schools
2022
Non-proft sector and schools have different trajectories in the sphere of education and yet they both direct to the same goal – well-being of their target groups. What would happen if they joined their interests and transformed it into some kind of cooperation? Is it already happening and if so, how? This chapter focuses on the everyday reality of partnership between non-proft non-governmental organizations and schools, particularly in the area of inclusion of foreign language (FL) students in three European geographical areas – the Czech Republic, Castilla y León Autonomous Community of Spain, and Sicily in Italy. The three-year project aimed to map the extent of such cooperation and allow…
Starptautisko studentu pielāgošanās augstākās izglītības iestādei izaicinājumi
2021
Starptautisko studentu uzņemšana Latvijas Universitātē pēdējās desmitgadēs ir ievērojami paplašinājusies. Šajā pētījumā tika pētīta starptautisko studentu pieredze akadēmiskajā un sociokulturālajā vidē. Kvalitatīvās intervijas rezultāti atklāja, ka ārvalstu studenti risina akadēmiskās problēmas, sociālo izolāciju, kā arī finansiālās problēmas un pielāgošanos kultūrai. Akadēmiskās problēmas ietvēra saziņu ar universitates mācībspēkiem, kursa biedriem un citu personālu. Studenti regulāri saskārās ar sociālo izolāciju, iesaistoties dažādās grupas aktivitātēs. Kultūras ziņā studentiem bija jāsaskaras ar dažādiem domāšanas un darbības veidiem Baltijas valstī (Latvijā). Lai pārvarētu izaicinājumu…

2020
Pēdējos gados izglītības iestādēs pieaug to skolēnu ar garīgās attīstības traucējumiem skaits, kuriem ir dažādi runas un valodas traucējumi. atsevišķos gadījumos runas vispār nav. lai sekmētu skolēnu ar GAT runas un valodas attīstību, mācību darbībā nepieciešams iekļaut sensomotoros vingrinājumus. sensomotoro vingrinājumu izmantošana mācību stundu laikā un logopēdijas nodarbībās, sākumskolas skolēniem ar vidēji smagiem garīgās attīstības traucējumiem sekmētu runas un valodas attīstību. Darba mērķis ir pamatojoties uz zinātniskās literatūras atziņām un praktisko darba pieredzi veikt pētījumu, lai noskaidrotu, kā sensomotoro vingrinājumu izmantošana sākumskolas skolēniem ar GAT sekmē runas un…
How does the journal impact factor affect the CV of PhD students?
2014
In his editorial “Dear DORA”, Howy Jacobs commented on the recent San Francisco Declaration of Research Assessment (DORA) to address the misuse of the journal impact factor (IF) and discussed alternatives. DORA stipulates that the IF must not be used as a surrogate measure of the quality of individual research articles, or to assess an individual scientist's contributions in hiring, promotion and funding decisions. DORA and many other commentators, such as Howy Jacobs, therefore advocate the use of additional, alternative metrics and other measures to make a more fair and realistic judgment about the quality of a scientist's or …
Enseñanza mutua en línea: una investigación piloto realizada con los estudiantes universitarios
2023
In academic year 2020-2021, a pilot research was carried out on distance peer teaching, which was hypothesized as effective tool to reduce some of the negative effects that distance teaching, imposed by the Coronavirus pandemic, caused among students enrolled in the first year of the three-year degree course in Educational Sciences at the University of Palermo during the academic year 2019-2020. Nineteen students attending the second year of this course, after having participated in a specific training activity (15 h), from March to June 2021 helped 35 fellow students to advance their careers by catching up as many first-year exams as possible through distance support. In July 2021, the gro…

A qualitative study of perioperative nursing students' experiences of interprofessional simulation-based learning.
2020
Aim: To explore perioperative nursing students' experiences of interprofessional simulation-based learning to gain a deeper understanding of how this educational tool can be used to support students' learning and enable them to achieve the intended learning outcomes. Background: Despite extensive research, it remains unclear what and how participants learn from interprofessional simulation-based learning. There is a need to specify how interprofessional simulation-based learning should be organised to support and promote learning processes, especially for postgraduate learners. In particular, there seems to be little evidence in the existing literature in the field of educating perioperativ…
