Il Summarizing Test U: uno strumento per lo sviluppo dei talenti all’Università
2019
La rielaborazione sintetica dei testi è riconosciuta come uno dei processi principali ai fini della comprensione della lettura, tuttavia nella letteratura scientifica italiana non sono diffusi strumenti atti a valutare l’esercizio di questa competenza, né a supportare il suo sviluppo e il suo miglioramento negli studenti universitari. Per poter ipotizzare un modello didattico in cui sia possibile, per ogni studente universitario, controllare la propria attività cognitiva, ovvero il proprio potenziale intellettivo in sviluppo e in espansione creativa, in un modo diverso da come lo usa, è necessario utilizzare strumenti di autovalutazione iniziale che permettano l’individuazione precoce e la …
Individual differences for self-regulating task-oriented reading activities.
2010
The goal of this study is to analyze the self-regulation processes present in task-oriented reading activities. In the 1st experiment, we examined the following self-regulation processes in the context of answering questions about an available text: (a) monitoring the comprehension of the question, (b) self-regulating the search process, and (c) monitoring the decision to search. Skilled and less skilled comprehenders from 7th and 8th grades read 2 texts and answered 16 questions while all their actions were recorded on a computer. We hypothesized that skilled comprehenders would differ from less skilled comprehenders on the 1st 2 processes on the basis of their general comprehension skills…
Lasīšanas Detektīvi Skolēnu Lasītprasmes (Lasītpratības) Pilnveidei Angļu valodas stundās 7.klasē
2020
Diplomdarba autores pieredze liecina, ka salīdzinoši neliels pētījumu skaits Latvijā veikts saistībā ar skolēnu lasītpratības mērījumiem svešvalodā. No otras puses, līdzīgi pētījumi ik gadu tiek veikti un ir zināmi kā starptautiskie lasītprasmes novērtēšanas pētījumi (PIRLS), kur tiek noteiktas lasīšanas spējas sākumskolas skolēniem. Taču oficiālu datu par kopējo lasītprasmes līmeni pusaudžiem, lasot svešvalodā, ir nepietiekami. Tā kā svešvalodas apguve ir saistīta ar dzimtās valodas izpratni, tiek uzsvērta metakognitīvā pieeja un kā viena no metakognitīvām stratēģijām minēti ir lasīšanas detektīvi. To fokuss ir kognitīvās stratēģijas, kas parādās skolēnam sastopoties ar izaicinošu tekstu. …
Comprehension control of English texts with Secondary Compulsory Education students, with English as a second language
2017
Este trabajo gira en torno a la investigación del Control de la Comprensión en estudiantes de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y Bachillerato. El objetivo del trabajo es averiguar el nivel de Control de la Comprensión de los alumnos, ver si hay una mejora a través de los cursos, y observar si los alumnos de último curso, Segundo de Bachillerato, tienen un Control de Comprensión suficiente para enfrentarse a el nivel académico universitario. Como metodología, se utilizó un test de autoevaluación y dos textos por cada clase al que se le insertaron cuatro errores que había que detectar. Como resultado, se pudo comparar la percepción del alumno de su propio control de la comprensión, y el verda…
El control de la comprensión de textos científicos en inglés como lengua extranjera, en estudiantes universitarios españoles no bilingües : evaluació…
2013
'Esta tesis presenta un estudio sobre el uso de estrategias metacognitivas y su impacto en la comprensión lectora en inglés como LE de estudiantes universitarios españoles. Se analiza dónde se encuentran las deficiencias, en su caso, y cómo pueden ser superadas mediante intervenciones didácticas apropiadas. Los estudios empíricos realizados se agrupan en tres grandes bloques. El primer bloque está dedicado a la caracterización de los estudiantes universitarios en lo que respecta a su competencia lectora en inglés. Un primer estudio evalúa el dominio lingüístico en inglés y las principales dificultades que presentan estos estudiantes para poder comunicar y comprender ideas básicas en esta le…
Impact of text availability and question format on reading comprehension processes
2017
Abstract We conducted two experiments to analyze how text availability and question format affect readers’ processes and performance on measures of expository text reading comprehension. Junior high school students read expository texts and answered both multiple choice and open-ended questions on a computer that recorded reading times and readers’ actions with Read&Answer software. The results showed that readers reread prior text segments during initial reading of the text more often when they knew that the text would be unavailable when answering questions than when they knew that the text would be available. In addition, readers made more search decisions in the text- available conditio…
Tablets for all? Testing the screen inferiority effect with upper primary school students
2021
Abstract Educational institutions across the world are increasingly integrating tablets in the classroom, under the assumption that tablets improve students' learning. However, little research has specifically focused on the effects of tablets on reading comprehension of primary school children. Based on previous research with undergraduate students, we tested the hypothesis that primary school students will get more distracted, and subsequently comprehend less, when reading expository texts on tablets, as opposed to paper, particularly when they read under time pressure. In addition, from the lens of the comprehension levels hypothesis, we also analyzed the extent to which higher text comp…
Formative feedback to transfer self-regulation of task-oriented reading strategies
2016
The study includes two experiments to analyse the effects of automatic formative feedback designed to promote the transfer of self-regulation of strategic decisions in task-oriented reading e.g. answering questions from an available text. Secondary-school students read and answered multiple-choice comprehension questions from two texts having them available while receiving consistent feedback about their performance and strategic decisions. Then, they read a different text and answered questions also with the text available, but receiving no feedback. In Experiment 1, we tested two feedback procedures that differed in task conditions and the feedback information associated to these conditio…
Il ruolo della comprensione del testo nel processo di matematizzazione e modellizzazione
2017
In questo articolo vengono analizzate le risposte fornite a un interessante item relativo alla Prova standardizzata di matematica somministrata nel maggio 2015 a tutti gli allievi di quinta elementare del Canton Ticino. A partire dai risultati statistici emersi da un campione di 508 protocolli selezionati, viene presentata un’analisi qualitativa effettuata su un campione più ristretto di 174 studenti di prima media, allo scopo di rintracciare le cause delle difficoltà emerse nella risoluzione. Da questa analisi si rileva come le risposte sbagliate di diversi studenti siano legate a difficoltà nella comprensione del testo dell’item, in particolare a difficoltà di interpretazione linguistica.…
Inferential processes in readers with Down syndrome
2013
The aim of this work is to know if the source of the difficulty in making inferences, readers with Down syndrome, is in access to prior knowledge or constructing ideas from purely textual knowledge (based on Saldaña and Frith, 2002 for autism). Involved a sample of 20 students with Down syndrome and mild mental retardation (mean IQ = 60) and a control group of 20 children without cognitive deficits. They were matched as to their extent read metal age via Prueba de Evaluación del Retraso Lector (average 8 years). We created two experimental situations: a) subjects had to generate inferences based on physical knowledge, b) social inferences about knowledge. The ability to check and reaction t…
