The Art-Based Methods in Developing Transversal Competence
2019
This article describes a project called “The art based methods in developing transversal competence” funded by The Finnish National Board of Education. The article is based on the hermeneutic phenomenological approach in action research. The project developed learning environments as well as project-based learning with emphasis on the art-based methods and transversal competence approach to learning. The aim was to develop unique and communal well-being in learning. The project offered tools to strengthen teachers’ professional skills to use expressive, art-based methods in different curriculum-based projects. The professional in-service training project included five contact days in six we…
Un témoignage sensible, la parole du chrétien selon le pape François
2016
International audience; Si le pape François montre un intérêt soutenu pour les médias afin d’informer le plus largement de l’actualité de l’Église catholique, il s’en remet à d’autres modalités pour transmettre la Parole. Le chrétien annonce le message à travers sa manière d’être chrétien ; c’est tout le sens de la notion de « témoignage » dans l’acte de dire la Parole. À partir d’un corpus de textes pontificaux du pape François, l’intention de cette réflexion est de questionner cette manière chrétienne d’être au monde, plus précisément dans l’espace public, et d’être à l’autre en explorant conjointement deux voies : (i) le soubassement sensible d’une pratique énonciative faite de comportem…
Valutare le soft skills all'università
2017
È stato effettuato uno studio di caso ispirato ai principi pedagogici della prospettiva Student Voice. Venticinque studenti universitari hanno partecipato, tra il mese di novembre 2015 e il mese di febbraio 2016, a due attività formative: tre sessioni di scrittura espressiva e quattro colloqui individuali di peer-tutoring. Si è voluto verificare se lo svolgimento di queste attività facilitasse lo sviluppo di tre soft skills che favoriscono la partecipazione degli studenti alle pratiche didattiche dei docenti e il loro successo accademico: la capacità di gestire l’ansia da esame, il senso di autoefficacia e l’immagine del «sé» attuale. La valutazione iniziale delle competenze prese in esame …
Study of vocalists' use of emotions in performance preparation
2015
Musicians and educators understand the importance of expressivity in vocal performance. Despite the acceptance of expressivity as a crucial element in musical performance, educators have reported addressing it only cursorily or not addressing it at all when preparing for a performance. For these reasons, this research has focused on techniques used by trained musicians when preparing a performance, to be adapted and applied for use by teachers with their large vocal ensembles. Participants in this study were enrolled in vocal / operatic performance programs at universities in the United States, Ireland, Finland, and Hong Kong. Their progress was tracked throughout the semester by three ques…
«Telemaco»: una ricerca sperimentale in prospettiva Student Voice
2017
La ricerca «Telemaco» è stata svolta per promuovere una partecipazione attiva e responsabile degli studenti universitari alla didattica universitaria. A tal fine, si è ritenuto opportuno preparare tale partecipazione mediante l’applicazione di due metodi d’intervento con cui migliorare il loro senso di autoefficacia, la loro capacità di gestire l’ansia da prestazione e l’immagine del loro «sé» attuale: la scrittura espressiva e il tutoraggio tra pari. I risultati dimostrano l’efficacia di questi due metodi sulle tre competenze prese in esame. Valorizzare la voce scritta e orale degli studenti forma in loro una visione più democratica dell’insegnamento universitario, attiva processi virtuosi…
Communicating voice emphasis in harpsichord performance
2009
We investigated the means used by harpsichordists to communicate voice-specific melodic emphasis. Twelve harpsichordists were asked to perform a short Baroque polyphonic piece by Frescobaldi (1583-1643) on a harpsichord equipped with a MIDI console. Three conditions were tested, each requiring performers to emphasize a particular voice in the piece (soprano, alto, tenor). Four parameters were analyzed: velocity, note onset asynchrony, timing deviations, and articulation. Mean onset asynchronies were much larger than those observed in organ or piano performance, averaging more than 100 ms between outer voices. However, asynchronies did not vary significantly between conditions, suggesting th…
