The experience of knowledge in everyday accounting: a study of Finnish accounting managers
1995
The paper offers an ethnomethodological-phenomenological description of the everyday cost accountant's life-world in Finnish companies. This empirical study is based on qualitative research interviews which provide rich data on this phenomenon and offer a starting-point for interpretation. As a result of interpretation a picture emerges of how the everyday accountant seems to acquire the experience of knowledge. ‘The experience of knowledge’ is used to refer to ethnomethodological-phenomenological perspective which means that the constitution of practical accounting knowledge is seen as an accomplishment which is based on an individual sense-making process. This process and its elements are…
When the neighborhood educates: situated learning and collaborative artistic creation as a tool in the musical formation of the future teacher
2020
RESUMEN: Este estudio describe y analiza una acción artístico-pedagógica en el ámbito de la formación inicial de docentes y desarrollada en un barrio desfavorecido de Palma de Mallorca, España. Participaron 65 estudiantes del Grado de Maestro de Educación Primaria en la asignatura de Música y 3 músicos expertos, responsables de diseñar e implementar la acción. A través de una metodología cualitativa de tipo descriptivo-interpretativo, los resultados muestran: 1) algunas características que determinaron el diseño de la acción como son el aprendizaje situado, la colaboración, la creatividad y el compromiso con la realidad social del barrio; y 2) aspectos emergentes a partir de las valoracione…
A Pedagogy of ht Subalterns: Gramsci and the Groups 'on the margins of history'
2017
In the 1980s, a group of South Asian scholars pioneered Subaltern Studies drawing on one of Gramsci’s most famous and used categories: the subaltern. This chapter attempts a philological analysis of Gramsci’s work to show how the use of this term has been at times incorrect, in part because of the lack, until recently, of complete translations of Gramsci’s writings. Subaltern Studies’ interpretation has arguably oriented Gramsci’s notion of the subaltern to the ethical and political needs of an emancipatory project. This does not completely undermine the fruitfulness of a scholarship capable of using a concept which had been previously neglected in defining marginal individuals without bind…
Myths of Primitiveness: A Barthean Interpretation of Rhetorical Devices in Early Jazz Criticism
2013
Ever since jazz began to make an impact in white aesthetic culture in the late 1910s and 1920s, critics, regardless of whether they celebrated or condemned the music, enmeshed their discourse with images of exoticism, noble savageness, and racial brutishness. As Jazz Studies emerged as an academic discipline, scholars have shown increasing interest in exposing these images in order to illustrate the pervading racist sentiment inscribed within white perception of the jazz idiom and also to establish the connections between jazz and the modernist obsession with primitivism. The aim of this paper is to contribute further study to the intricacies of primitivism through a close examination of th…
La legge n. 219 del 2017 e la disciplina del fine-vita tra principi costituzionali e problemi aperti. Spunti di riflessione
2019
The law no. 219 of 2017 intervened, after an almost thirty-year debate, to introduce a discipline, though still incomplete, of the end of life. It is the first legislative intervention expressed in a matter on which, until recently, there were doubts that the State could intervene. The legislation is constructed by general clauses, which incorporate the jurisprudential right, guaranteeing that the person has possibility for autonomous decisions on how to live the terminal phases of a pathological state that approaches to death. However, it cannot be assumed that it is only a recognition of the already living right, since, in art. 1, the definition of the axiological framework of reference c…
Advances in endoscopic imaging of colorectal neoplasia.
2010
Colon cancer screening is arguably the most important activity performed by gastroenterologists. Recent decreases in rates of death from colorectal cancer indicate that screening methods such as colonoscopy have a positive impact. There is still room for improvement, however, particularly in prevention of right-sided colon cancer. Practice issues, such as making colonoscopy more comfortable, safer, and less costly, are keys to continued success in cancer prevention. Colonoscopy techniques, technologies, and quality control measures have advanced to improve detection, classification, and removal of early neoplasias. In particular, slow, careful inspection of the colon by gastroenterologists …
U.I.R.D.A. – Unbuilt Italian Rationalism Digital Archive
2018
For twenty years, the architecture of Italian rationalism through the digital modelling has been investigated. Very often, the production of a model and the consequent representation of tridimensional views, in many case studies, as outcome of the research on architecture have been considered. Actually, the digital model, intended as a critical tool, has to be conceived as a ‘starting point' for graphic analysis of architecture and not as the outcome. Indeed, it is associated to other graphics, sometimes not ‘deducted' from the model, useful for the understanding/translation of architecture. The construction of the model is not the construction of a simple image, operation, which is often c…
Image og the Teacher in Schools Websites – Representative of the School
2015
Article consists of three parts - theoretical, empirical research and recommendations for improvement the school website photo galleries. Publication analyses ideas (Weber&Mitchell, Ķestere, Kaļķe, Fischer&Kiefer, Veide) that reveal importance of the teacher's image in the representation of the school, significance of the picture and selfpromotion in the school context. The empirical study consider teacher’s image in 17 Latvian school website photo galleries and surveys 102 primary school student’s parents to find out their views on the school website photo galleries impact on the selection of the school for their children. Analysis of the theoretical literature and interpre…
Backcalculation of airport pavement moduli and thickness using the Lévy Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm
2016
Interpretation of NDTdata is crucial in any Airport Pavement Management System (APMS), in order to implement strategies to maintain airport pavementssince they allow to estimate their remaining life and related maintenance needs and activities. In this paper, the AntColony Optimization algorithmwasused for backcalculation of pavement moduli from surface deflection data. The algorithm’s performances are illustrated and improvement in prediction quality is demonstrated both in terms of goodness of fitness and computational effort. Moreover, it is proved that the proposed algorithm is also able to predict layer thicknesses, taking into account their variation too.
In the Mood: Place and Tools in the Music Industry with a Focus on Entrepreneurship
2016
In this book a phenomenological approach is often used to explore how objects are sensitised: the analyses explore what is happening interobjectively. Humanitarian aid, political portraits, and bequeathed objects are examples of such sensitising in the previous chapters. Chapter 9 adds an analysis of place and dwells on affective atmospheres. The point of departure is a Norwegian black metal musician. While being part of a subgenre of heavy metal music associated with being macho, aggressive, grotesque, and even satanic, this musician has a striking tendency to constantly involve nature – meadows, trees, streams, and a watermill from his homestead – in his music and performances. Building o…
