PEER-TUTORING AT THE UNIVERSITY. ANALYSIS OF A SINGLE CASE STUDY
2021
The paper focus on the theme of peer learning with reference to the university context. Peer tutoring is an educational strategy that aims to activate mutual support between peers to promote an authentic and co-participated learning experience. In doing this it is necessary that the relationship is positive and that the "power" between the people involved is balanced; in other words, that participation is spontaneous [1]. Orientation and tutoring are now a reality for Italian and international universities [2],[3]. If initially said activity was intended to guide and inform incoming students, later the offer was extended to the entire university career and for heterogeneous needs [4],[5],[6…
Religious Organizations and Local Self-government Units as Entities Cooperating in The Enforcement of Criminal Judgements
2019
Związki wyznaniowe oraz jednostki samorządu terytorialnego to podmioty współdziałające w wykonywaniu kar, środków karnych, kompensacyjnych, zabezpieczających, zapobiegawczych oraz przepadku. Można je również traktować w kategoriach organów społecznej kontroli nad wykonywaniem tych orzeczeń. Współdziałanie takich podmiotów uzyskało rangę dyrektywy ustawowej i służyć ma readaptacji społecznej skazanych i zapobieganiu przestępczości. W przypadku przedstawicieli związków wyznaniowych współdziałanie posiada także charakter wychowawczy i poprawczy. Religious organizations and local self-government units are entities cooperating in the implementation of penalties, penal, compensatory, protective a…

Teacher Talk Patterns in Science Lessons: Use in Teacher Education
2006
This paper presents an innovative and useful methodology to analyze instructional talk. In teacher education, there is a lack of practical methods that the tutor teacher can use to discuss and reflect on student teachers’ lessons. The student teacher cannot remember what actually happened during the lesson, and the feedback and discussions are based on memory and are, therefore, unstructured. The purpose of this explorative and descriptive case study was to characterize the teacher talk used in the process of a teacher’s guidance of secondary school students’ acquisition of knowledge about physics. First, a classification method for classroom talk was developed. Then, using this method, the…
Learning via Summarizing Infographics Assignment in Software Engineering Management e-Course?
2020
This Research-to-Practice, Work in Progress Paper focuses on how learners experience creation of infographics as a summarizing assignment in an advanced level e-course on software engineering management (SEM). We have previously investigated how learners perceive infographics as a repeated reflection assignment during a requirements engineering e-course. To complement this research project, we studied how learners experience the use of infographics as a method for summarizing a whole software engineering management course in e-education setting. The SEM course participants (N=36) found that infographics as a summarizing assignment required complex learning that was altogether deemed highly …
Development of digital health messages for rural populations in Tanzania: Multi- And interdisciplinary approach
2021
Background Health workers have traditionally delivered health promotion and education to rural communities in the Global South in paper leaflet formats or orally. With the rise of digital technologies, health promotion and education can be provided in innovative and more effective formats, which are believed to have a higher impact on disease prevention and treatment. Objective The aim of this tutorial is to illustrate how a multi- and interdisciplinary approach can be applied in the design process of digital health messages for use in the Global South.

Contribution à l'évaluation de l'efficacité des dispositifs de remédiation
1999
International audience; Cet article est tiré de mon travail de thèse préparée et soutenue à l'IREDU - Université de Bourgogne. Ce travail est une réflexion sur un problème crucial d' échec universitaire en premier cycle, notamment en première année. Cette recherche examine l'efficacité dé la filière SPESS " (Semestre de préparation aux études scientifiques supérieures) mise en place pour tenter de parfaire l'insertion universitaire des étudiants faibles. Prenant appui sur les développements théoriques de l'estimation de la jonction de production des acquisitions et du modèle coût-efficacité, la partie empirique se focalise sur les modélisations linéaire et logistique associées respectivemen…
Opinia prawna w sprawie uprawnień informacyjnych oraz rektyfikacyjnych członków związków wyznaniowych w odniesieniu do danych osobowych przetwarzanyc…
2017
W opinii przedstawiono standardy krajowe w zakresie uprawnień informacyjnych i rektyfikacyjnych członków związków wyznaniowych, jakie polski ustawodawca określił w ustawie z dnia 29 sierpnia 1997 r. o ochronie danych osobowych. Następnie przedstawiono reżim prawny w zakresie przetwarzania danych osobowych przez związki wyznaniowe w ramach prowadzonej przez nie działalności statutowej. Zasadniczy trzon przeprowadzonych analiz stanowi odpowiedź na pytanie o zakres uprawnień informacyjnych oraz rektyfikacyjnych w sytuacji braku adekwatnych autonomicznych unormowań prawa wewnętrznego związków wyznaniowych w zakresie ochrony danych osobowych. We wnioskach końcowych autor opinii staje na stanowis…
Adding sensor-free intention-based affective support to an Intelligent Tutoring System
2017
Abstract Emotional factors considerably influence learning and academic performance. In this paper, we validate the hypothesis that learning platforms can adjust their response to have an effect on the learner’s pleasure, arousal and/or dominance, without using a specific emotion detection system during operation. To this end, we have enriched an existing Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) by designing a module that is able to regulate the level of help provided to maximize valence, arousal or autonomy as desired. The design of this module followed a two-stage methodology. In the first stage, the ITS was adapted to collect data from several groups of students in primary education, by providi…
An analysis of English teachers’ self-efficacy in relation to SEN and disability and its implications in a changing SEN policy context
2016
AbstractPolicy and practice in relation to meeting the diverse needs of all children, including those with special educational needs (SEN) and disabilities, is in a state of change in the UK. As a result, there is growing interest in and understanding of the need to focus on factors which impact on teachers’ levels of self-efficacy in meeting the needs of learners with SEN, and the implications of this for further development and training. The research reported in this paper gathered data from teachers at a unique time in the transition of policy and practice in England. Through a quantitative analysis of a questionnaire completed by 213 teachers from a variety of teaching settings, data re…
