Les drogodependències, una visió actualitzada

2013

Public opinion is not worried about drug dependence and other addictive disorders anymore. The changes in consumption patterns and the lack of visible situations related to drugs consumption have removed this problem from the top of the media’s agenda; however, we are able to establish that this is not a settled problem from the past, but quite the opposite. Despite all the prevention campaigns launched so far, the drugs consumption phenomenon prevails as well as the increase of the number of admissions in detoxification clinics for drug addicts. Therefore, it would be necessary to make a review of the history of drug dependence in order to find the key of the causes thereof nowadays, putti…

L'ensenyament del català a la ràdio durant el tardofranquisme : 'cursos de catalán' (1969) de Ràdio Barcelona

2018

En el context dels intents de recuperació de l'ensenyament del català que van succeir-se durant la dècada dels seixanta, el 1969 Ràdio Barcelona va posar en antena el programa Cursos de catalán, ideat i escrit pel poeta, gramàtic i editor Miquel Arimany, al qual posaven veu ell mateix i els locutors Isidre Sola, Enriqueta Teixidó i Xavier Ubach, dirigits per Armand Blanch. El programa, que es va estroncar a la trenta-tresena emissió, tenia com a objectiu fonamental l'extensió del coneixement del català entre el col·lectiu immigrant, condició imprescindible per a eixamplar-ne l'ús. El present article analitza les característiques del curs: l'alternança de castellà i català com a llengües veh…

Trends in the prevalence of asthma and allergic rhinitis in Italy between 1991 and 2010

2012

The prevalence of asthma increased worldwide until the 1990s, but since then there has been no clear temporal pattern. The present study aimed to assess time trends in the prevalence of current asthma, asthma-like symptoms and allergic rhinitis in Italian adults from 1990 to 2010. The same screening questionnaire was administered by mail or phone to random samples of the general population (age 20-44 yrs) in Italy, in the frame of three multicentre studies: the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) (1991-1993; n=6,031); the Italian Study on Asthma in Young Adults (ISAYA) (1998-2000; n=18,873); and the Gene Environment Interactions in Respiratory Diseases (GEIRD) study (2007-2…

Introduction. The aesthetics of migration: Reversals of marginality and the socio-political translation turn

2018

Translation has imposed itself with determination as a condition for intercultural and linguistic exchanges among human beings living in distant parts of the globe for millennia. Not only has it contributed to the understanding of sociocultural structures, political systems, and technological and digital processes, but it has also encouraged our knowledge of the world – strengthening our awareness of marginalities, liminalities and otherness, and, certainly, widening our interlinguistic and intercultural, as well as translinguistic and transcultural horizons. This volume ranges across disciplines and subjects in translation studies, critical migration and border studies, the visual and perf…

Epistemic and didactic values of the demonstrative process in different cultures: a case study in Geometry with Chinese and Italian students

2011

This paper presents same key findings of the research project conducted by G.R.I.M. of Palermo on the approaches to justification and proof in Geometry by investigating how Chinese and Italian teachers and students taught particular geometrical topics refereed to different epistemic and didactic values related to own culture. It was found that Chinese teachers and students emphasized justification of the proof by a stressed visual verification based on some metarules linked with the structure of their own written language and defined as historical Chinese modus operandi in the Jiuzhang Suanshu. The Italians paid close attention to mathematical proof by a hypoxemic deductive system defined on the Euclide’ Elements. The geometrical problem discussed on the paper was defined and presented as “one problem multiple solution problems” and “one problem multiple changes”. Important aspect of the case study discussed in the paper focus on the mediation of knowledge between Chinese and Italian students involved in multicultural class. According to us these kind of activities can establish possibilities for the students to confront their self with different cultural social and educational prospective of knowledge discovering the power of mathematics as tool of negotiation in multicultural class?Settore MAT/04 - Matematiche Complementari

Cutting edge : using the media to enrich the teaching of oral skills

2011

Vaikka suullisen kielitaidon opetus on saanut huomiota osakseen, jää se usein muiden kielitaidon osa-alueiden varjoon. Oppikirjoissa olevat suulliset harjoitukset eivät aina motivoi oppilaita luontevaan keskusteluun, josta syystä heille on tärkeää tarjota mahdollisuuksia käydä mielekkäitä, ajatuksia herättäviä keskusteluja. Teknologian käyttö luokkahuoneessa on myös pinnalla oleva puheenaihe, jonka hyödyntämiseen ei opettajille kuitenkaan ole tarjottu tarpeeksi käytännön välineitä. Tämän oppimateriaalin pyrkimyksenä on kuroa kiinni kuilua, joka voidaan nähdä koulun ja oppilaiden jokapäiväisen elämän välillä. Tarkoituksena on nykyaikaistaa suullisen kielitaidon opettamista sekä luoda luokkah…

Citizen Participation and Political Communication in a Digital World.

2015

International audience; The arrival of the participatory web 2.0 has been hailed by many as a media revolution, bringing with it new tools and possibilities for direct political action. Through specialised online platforms, mainstream social media or blogs, citizens in many countries are increasingly seeking to have their voices heard online, whether it is to lobby, to support or to complain about their elected representatives. Politicians, too, are adopting "new media" in specific ways, though they are often criticised for failing to seize the full potential of online tools to enter into dialogue with their electorates. Bringing together perspectives from around the world, this volume exam…
