Assessment of Referees in Terms of Building a Positive Climate and Responsiveness to the Health, Emotional, and Social Needs of Rugby Players in Comp…
2021
One of the key elements of effective sports programs that contribute to a child’s sense of joy and satisfaction in participating in sports is contact with an adult who builds a caring climate deliberately and intentionally. Referees play a special role in providing positive experiences for young athletes. The main aim of this study was to assess the quality of referee–player interactions in terms of building a positive climate during the game and the referee’s responsiveness to the health, emotional, social, and cognitive needs of young rugby players aged 6–12 years. The research was conducted among 23 referees refereeing children’s rugby matches in Poland. The structure observation method …
La singulière réussite scolaire des enfants d'enseignants : des pratiques éducatives parentales spécifiques ?
2012
From primary to secondary school, teachers’ children get the best results. However, very little research has looked in to the family processes on which this singular success is built. Based on the demonstration of the link between "achieve the best school performance" and "being a child of whom at least one parent is a teacher", this study aims to establish family factors, in particular parental educational practices, that explain this significant "teacher effect". From econometric analysis of the Panel 95 survey, it transpires that, on the one hand, teachers’ children are the most likely to benefit from the best practices of socialization and support at school and, on the other hand, that …
The singular school succes of teachers' children : any specific educational parental pratices ?

Los Problemas Socio-Ambientales en Geografía: una Lectura Iberoamericana
2018
Instituida como disciplina escolar en el siglo XIX, con el objetivo de promover la identificación de los jóvenes ciudadanos con la patria, la finalidad de la Geografía es más describir un país armonioso que no denunciar los problemas sociales y ambientales. Esta tradición perdura hasta nuestros días, como lo demuestran los programas oficiales de Chile, España y Portugal. Los problemas socioambientales son desvalorizados y reducidos a una información estadística e icónica, que no reconoce los deseos de los ciudadanos. Este discurso está reforzado por la actuación de los organismos internacionales, más interesados en el desempeño de los alumnos en algunas áreas, que se consideran con impacto …
Intercultural Studies in Higher Education. Policy and Practice
2019
International audience; This book explores the study of policies and practices in Higher Education by comparing systems, institutions, programs, innovations, results and cultures. In a rapidly changing global and international marketplace, the growth of higher education has occurred within distinct cultural contexts, meaning that change is reflected within local, regional, national and global perspectives. Using a single data methodology across countries and continents, the editors and contributors explore higher education reforms between global and local dimensions, the expansion of access and democratisation, and relevant aspects in the organisation and management of higher education. In …
Activation of the vocational and personal development (ADVP): an innovative educational orientation methodology.
2015
Progress in orientation educational practices in Italy has led to the emergence of several methods designed to help the development of personal and career aims. The several evaluations, which have been carried out, show that changes are first cognitive and specifically involve professional representations: experimental subjects used more descriptors and different descriptors to represent an occupation which interests them. These changes are also cognitive with participants stating that they have been involved in experiences and in activities, have sought information, etc. These initial results once again raise the question of instruments needing to be developed for such evaluation, that of …
Didattica e differenze di genere in alunni di 8-12 anni
2013
I risultati presentati fanno parte di una più ampia ricerca -tuttora in corso-, che mira ad individuare i metodi, le tecniche e gli strumenti didattici che facilitano il successo scolastico degli uomini e delle donne facendo leva sul loro diverso modo di affrontare lo studio. Le diversità fra maschi e femmine, che appartengono al naturale ordine psico-biologico e si manifestano in modo diverso nel tempo e nei luoghi, incidono in modo diretto non solo sullo sviluppo affettivo e relazionale degli alunni ma anche sul loro modo di apprendere; in questo articolo sono presi in considerazione solo gli aspetti che richiedono una particolare attenzione didattica, per quanto riguarda la fascia d’età …
THE MULTI-CODE LANGUAGE OF THE MIND. A SURVEY ON TEACHERS’ EDUCATIONAL PRACTICES
2021
In planning the educational offer, the educator/teacher must consider the emerging neuroscientific evidence concerning the multi-codic language of the mind and the peculiarity of each evolutionary trajectory. After framing the different multi-codic influences that characterize the formation of brain configurations (two examples are reported: one linked to the cognitive sphere and one linked to motor skills and corporeality), the consequent peculiarity of each student or person in training is underlined. In the second part of the paper, a survey conducted with 440 teachers of the first and second cycle school during the second semester of the A.S. 2020/2021. The survey was conducted through …
Le caratteristiche dell’insegnante Montessori e l’apprendimento per imitazione: un’indagine sulle prassi degli insegnanti
2022
Maria Montessori nel suo percorso verso la delineazione del Metodo che prende il suo nome, enfatizza il ruolo dell’insegnante, la sua opera maieutica e puerocentrica. Il meccanismo della mimesi e l’apprendimento per imitazione rappresentano un caposaldo, oltre che una tra le modalità d’apprendimento più produttive nei primi mesi di vita del bambino. La commistione tra le recenti scoperte sul funzionamento del cervello e i principi guida del Metodo Montessori sono alla base dell’indagine quali-quantitativa svolta con 459 docenti di scuola primaria e scuola dell’infanzia di venti scuole siciliane durante l’A.S. 2020/2021. L’obiettivo dell’indagine è rilevare e misurare le prassi quotidiane de…
Best practices for teaching boys
2015
Boys are the ones in trouble, they say. They are trailing girls in reading and writing, are more likely to get in trouble or be labelled as learning disabled, and are less likely to go to college. Educators, citing emerging brain research, say that the two sexes learn differently and that schools are more geared to girls than to their ants-in-the-pants counterparts. But they are adopting strategies to help boys succeed, from playing multiplication baseball to handing out stress balls and setting up boys-only schools. Nowadays, there is an urgent call for a more significant presence of male teachers in primary schools. Here are the results of an extensive research concerning gender differenc…
