Pratiche di didattica interculturale: sinergia e integrazione di approcci qualitativi e quantitativi
2021
Durante il percorso di ricerca, che presentiamo come esempio di integrazione tra metodi quantitativi e qualitativi, abbiamo supportato 79 insegnanti (docenti tutor) nella progettazione di azioni di miglioramento rivolte a studenti stranieri ma, soprattutto, ai loro insegnanti (114 docenti di 33 scuole siciliane), mediante azioni di coaching mirate ad una diffusione di pratiche di didattica interculturale efficaci e innovative. Siamo partiti dal presupposto che non è possibile ipotizzare solo procedure di ricerca che semplifichino tale complessità (procedure presenti nelle ricerche di tipo quantitativo), e rendano difficile l’individuazione di diversi piani di lettura delle situazioni educat…
Competence and Understanding in the Governance Chain
2015
Education is of fundamental value for a society; to raise and foster a new generation of citizens in a global and local multicultural context. It is therefore crucial to identify the competences that are needed for multiple actors in the school governance chain, with the aim of achieving this mission in different contexts over time.
Lilibeo al tempo di Cicerone
2021
The volume that sees the light today is the fruit of the Study Day on "Lilibeo at the time of Cicero" held in Marsala, in the conference room of the Museo Lilibeo, on 3 May 2019 thanks to the joint effort of the Museum and the Culture and Society Department of the University of Palermo. In the short term, important changes in the council organizational structure, they led to the establishment of the Archaeological Park of Lilibeo including in a unitary structure the Lilibeo Regional Archaeological Museum, the archaeological area of Capo Boeo, which represents the main nucleus, and other state-owned archaeological areas of the urban fabric of Marsala.
Between Multiculturalism and Nationalism - A Discursive Construction of Britishness in the Spectator in the Wake of the London Bombings
2008
Between Multiculturalism and Nationalism - A Discursive Construction of Britishness in the Spectator in the Wake of the London Bombings In his interdisciplinary work Ideology (1998), Teun A. van Dijk proposes to study ideology as a cognitive, social and linguistic enterprise. Such an integrative approach is assumed to model interfaces between social structure and cognition through discourse. The notion of ideology it presupposes may be described as shared social representations (group self-schemata), which become a group's defining attributes, and govern its ideological expression in discourse. It seems that this approach can be productively applied to a study of ideological relations in th…
A third space: discursive realizations of immigrant identity
2015
The relationship between additional language use and identity has long been of interest to scholars studying immigration and multilingualism. While oral language is frequently examined as a site for the negotiation of identity, written texts can also be studied for information about how language learners position themselves within their receiving culture. This study looks at the relationship between pronoun choice and identity in additional language academic writing by first generation immigrants in Norway, arguing that language learners signal solidarity with certain subject positions through their use of pronouns. Examining English-language texts discussing themes related to language pres…
Ocnos : revista de estudios sobre lectura
2009
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen, palabras clave en español e ingles Se plantea el siguiente interrogante, ¿cuáles deben ser, en la sociedad del s. XXI , los objetivos de la educación literaria? El camino de la renovación debe venir por la recuperación de su valor instructivo. La capacidad cognoscitiva para interpretar la realidad y la construcción sociocultural parece uno de los ejes. No obstante, cabe subrayar el placer que provoca la lectura como base para la adquisición de la competencia literaria. Asimismo, otro aspecto fundamental es el corpus de textos que deben utilizarse. Este debe ser, en todos los sentidos, multicultural, esto es, textos clásicos, universale…
La interculturalitat a la literatura infantil i juvenil catalana
2016
Resum: Aquest article analitza la presència de la interculturalitat en la literatura infantil i juvenil (LIJ) escrita en català en els anys 2002-2006, un període d’especial augment de la immigració i també dels debats sobre l’educació intercultural a casa nostra. L’estudi, fet a partir d’un corpus de 95 llibres triats a través de l’encreuament de diversos factors de selecció (premis literaris, llistes de recomanació i ressenyes positives), permet acostar-nos al tema de la diversitat cultural expressada des d’una perspectiva àmplia. Com a conclusió, però, considerem que la LIJ catalana del període estudiat no dóna compte d’aquesta diversitat cultural. Ni la ja existent, ni la creada per les …
The Multicultural Personality Questionnaire (SF-40): Adaptation and Validation of the Spanish Version.
2021
The coexistence of diverse cultures in our society indicates the need to examine the factors related to the success of multicultural interactions. The study aims were to examine the psychometric characteristics of the Spanish version of the Multicultural Personality Questionnaire short form (MPQ-SF40), in a convenience sample of 392 university students. Then, the effect of sex and age was assessed, and finally, the levels and percentiles of multicultural personality were measured. The scale’s validity was assessed with exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA and CFA). Reliability was evaluated with Cronbach’s alpha, composite reliability (CR), and average variance extracted (AVE).…
La poesía como lección de historia, Matei Vişniec, «En la mesa con Marx» («La masă cu Marx»)La poesía como lección de historia, Matei Vişniec, «En la…
2017
After a brief presentation describing the main traits of the literary Romanian exile, this article aims to reveal some aspects of Matei Vişniec’s poetical originality, a Romanian francophone writer who defines himself as a «lucky exiled man». The poem we’ve chosen, «At the table with Marx» («La masă cu Marx»), involves the main line of the book with the same title that was published in Romania in 2011. His explicitly political regard relates him to another text that circulated as an anti-communist manifesto during the previous years of the communist dictature fall: the well-known poem entitled «The sailing ship» («Corabia»). A parable of complicity and colective guiltiness, «At the table wi…
Ricerca educativa in ambienti multiculturali con allievi cinesi: la lingua scritta come ponte per un avvio informale al pensiero algebrico-relazionale
2017
Il contributo, evidenziando l’attuale proble- matica didattica relativa alla multiculturalità nel panorama scolastico nazionale, discute alcuni aspetti chiave della cultura cinese, uti- li ad interpretare il perché di particolari competenze algebriche, evidenziate negli allievi di area confuciana dagli insegnanti di tutti i gradi scolastici, coerenti con le valuta- zioni internazionali PISA e TIMMS. Con questo scopo, il lavoro propone nello specifico una riflessione epistemologica del rapporto tra lingua scritta cinese e avvia- mento informale al pensiero algebrico-rela- zionale e discute i dati sperimentali (di tipo implicativo) di una ricerca-azione condotta in classi di Scuola Primaria c…
