THE CONCEPT OF COMPETENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF EDUCATION REFORM IN LATVIA
2019
The word competence is a key concept of ongoing education reform in Latvia - the ESF project “Competency approach in the curriculum” (hereafter: Project). The implementation of the idea of competence-based curriculum is related to significant changes in the structure of school and pre-school curriculum, the system of evaluation of learning outcomes, teacher education etc., which are widely clarified and discussed in expert groups and public space. Participating as experts in the development of a Project, the authors of the article find that the Latvian educational space lacks a common understanding of the meaning of the concept competence. Often the pedagogical terminology used by educators…
Effects of Prior Knowledge on Comprehending Text About Learning Strategies
2021
Good knowledge and skills in using different learning strategies is important for learning with understanding and even more critical during distance learning. Findings indicate that students tend to use and value ineffective learning strategies, thus there is need to educate students. This study aimed to analyze the possibility of using refutation text on learning strategies that students can study independently. The study examined how reported use of learning strategies and preexisting beliefs about the effectiveness of rehearsal and comprehension-oriented strategies relate to the comprehension of text about learning strategies, and how text comprehension is related to later use of strateg…
Il questionario SCIA per la valutazione delle buone prassi nelle comunità per minori: analisi preliminari e proposte per una versione breve.
2014
Le comunità residenziali possono essere considerate come Set(ting)(Giannone et al., 2012; Bruschetta, Giunta, 2009), specialistici contesti di “cura”. La conoscenza dell’organizzazione, strutturale e teorico-clinica, di tali contesti è essenziale per avviare un processo di riflessione, che possa metterne in luce le effettive condizioni di “terapeuticità” (Moos 1980, 2012; Van der Helm, 2009, 2011). Il questionario Standard Comunità Infanzia e Adolescenza – SCIA (Giannone, Guarnaccia, Bruschetta, 2012) elaborato dalla versione italiana del manuale Standard di Servizio per Comunità Terapeutiche per l’Infanzia e l’Adolescenza della Community of Communities (O’Sullivan & Paget, 2009; Vigorelli …
The Color of Avant-Garde: Kenneth Goldsmith’s "The Body of Michael Brown"
2018
In the following paper, I put forth a claim that literary works created according to the rules of conceptualism, seemingly devoid of expression, often reveal that values are inseparable from any textual operations. This is visible in Kenneth Goldsmith’s recent project, “The Body of Michael Brown,” which follows the format of Goldsmith’s previous book—Seven American Deaths and Disasters—a transcription of news reports of American national disasters, such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy or the attacks of 9/11. The text rewrites the autopsy report issued by the St. Louis County Coroner’s Office on the shooting of Michael Brown, an African-American teenager shot and killed by a white po…

AMBIENTE COSTRUITO E SOSTENIBILITÀ – Materiali riciclati e Design for Disassembly tra ricerca e buone pratiche
2020
In the context of environmental emergency of which the construction sector is one of the main causes – since it consumes 40% of the (embodied and operational) energy and produces about a third of the total waste – and due to the ambitious objectives set by the international community and by many countries to reduce the environmental impact of buildings during their whole life cycle, this paper wants to make a contribution to the understanding of the state of the art on cycle-based research activities, sustainable experiments and good practices that the building industry and the academy have implemented in recent years. In particular, it refers to cycle-based theoretical and experimental act…

Adaptation and Measurement Invariance by Gender of the Flourishing Scale in a Colombian Sample
2021
There is increasing interest in the study of flourishing as an indicator of subjective wellbeing. The objective herein was to adapt and study the psychometric properties of Diener’s Flourishing Scale (FS) among the Colombian population. Accordingly, a cross-sectional study was conducted with a non-probability sample of 1255 Colombian adults. The scale’s structure, invariance by gender, and convergent and concurrent validity were studied from a confirmatory perspective using structural equation models. The confirmatory factor analysis showed excellent fit indicators for the one-dimensional structure (CFI = 0.985, RMSEA = 0.039, SRMR = 0.020) as well as for the convergent (CFI = 0.909, RMSEA …
”Siksi, että se tuntuu helposti opettajastakin tylsältä” : communicative methods in English grammar teaching in Finland
2015
Sekä kieliopin opetusta että kommunikatiivista opetusta on tutkittu Suomessakin melko laajalti, mutta näiden kahden kohtaaminen ei toistaiseksi ole päässyt tutkimusten kohteeksi. Kielioppia pidetään usein vaikeana ja jopa tylsänä opetettavana, eikä kommunikatiivisuuden toteuttaminen kielioppitunneilla tunnu välttämättä kovin helpolta. Globalisoituvassa maailmassa kommunikointi vieraalla kielellä on yhä yleisempi ilmiö, minkä vuoksi sen opettaminen lukeutuu kieltenopettajien tärkeimpiin tehtäviin. Tällaisessa asetelmassa kieliopin asema herättää herkästi kysymyksiä. Tutkielman tarkoitus on selvittää, miten englannin kielen kieliopin opetus on kehittynyt Suomessa viimeisten vuosikymmenten aik…
