Den Virtuelle Matematikkskolen - Ungdomstrinnet : En studie av hvilke pedagogiske konsekvenser bruk av nettressursen DVM-U kan føre med seg
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 Many lower secondary school students struggle with mathematics and with motivation in the subject. To improve student achievement and motivation in mathematics, The Norwegian Centre for ICT in Education and The Norwegian Centre for Mathematics Education have developed an online learning resource that contains mathematical examples, exercises and games, called The Virtual School of Mathematics – Lower Secondary (DVM-U). The Norwegian Centre for ICT in Education suggest that DVM-U can be used in preparation of a topic, or as something students can work with if they do not benefit on a satisfactory level from the classroom teaching…
The features of the ethics of humor: A proposal from contemporary authors
2013
Destaco algunas de las aportaciones de autores contemporáneos que han abordado el tema del humor desde un punto de vista ético, principalmente: Ronald de Sousa, Joseph Boskin, John Morreall, Simon Critchley y Vittorio Hösle. Partiendo de su pensamiento, defiendo que la «ética del humor» tiene, al menos, las siguientes características: nos ayuda a reconocer los valores éticos en los que realmente creemos, detecta el humor éticamente incorrecto que mantiene estereotipos, fomenta el desarrollo de virtudes, critica los vicios de la sociedad contribuyendo a construir una sociedad más ética, y justifica con razones adecuadas la risa que trata de mejorar éticamente a la sociedad. I emphasize some …
Sport Ethics: The substantialist proposal of Lumpkin, Stoll and Beller, from ethical proceduralism
2013
En este artículo presento de forma crítica la propuesta de ética del deporte como «bolsa de virtudes» que elaboran tres autores estadounidenses que son Lumpkin, Stoll y Beller. Dicha propuesta debe entenderse como una manifestación de sustancialismo neoaristotélico en deporte, con una clara influencia de MacIntyre. Mi objetivo es mostrar cómo dicho sustancialismo no es suficiente para una propuesta ética del deporte, por lo que abogo por incorporar algunos de los presupuestos del procedimentalismo ético aplicado al deporte. In this article the author presents critically the proposed sports ethics as «bag of virtues» that Americans made three authors are Lumpkin, Stoll and Beller. This propo…
Amaya, A., Michelon, C. (eds.) (2020), The faces of virtue in law. Routledge
2022
The book, edited by Amalia Amaya and Claudio Michelon, brings together the most significant voices of the Aretaic theory to operate an interesting reconstruction of new topics in the field of philosophy of law which are typically overlooked by traditional legal theory. This approach allows the exploration of new interpretative lines that may suggest further developments for the theory of virtue. Reading this book could therefore be a valid and interesting tool for all those who study the legal decision-making process from a philosophical perspective, but also for all jurists who deal, in a broader sense, with the legal practice.
Are Virtues Shaped by National Cultures or Religions?
2012
The present paper examines the relative influence of religion and nation on conceptions of virtues. In a first study, conducted in the Netherlands, 926 respondents of different profession, age, sex, and religious background rank ordered a list of 15 virtues. A comparison of Dutch Muslims and non-Muslims showed a remarkably high resemblance in their ratings of virtues. Only faith was rated as being much more important by Muslims than by non-Muslims. In the second study, the influence of national cultures was examined. Adults (N = 795) from two culturally relatively similar countries, Germany and the Netherlands, and from Spain rated the same list of virtues. Crossnational differences between…
Approche communicationnelle et organisationnelle des enjeux du Community Management
2014
This paper describes a research program within Information and Communication Sciences (ISC). This program is based on the understanding of online socialization processes. Particularely, it is focused on rationalization issues for communities forms and rules online. Since the end of the years 2000, this rationalization for online communities is also known as Community Management. We formulate the hypothesis that community management policies spread to whole human activities on the web 2.0, and that community management policies rule the new knowledge mediations.
Układ częściowy obejmujący wierzytelności zabezpieczone rzeczowo a zawieszenie egzekucji z mocy prawa
2018
Niniejsze opracowanie odnosi się do problematyki wpływu otwarcia przyspieszonego postępowania układowego z układem częściowym na postępowanie egzekucyjne dotyczące wierzytelności zabezpieczonej rzeczowo na składnikach majątku dłużnika. Zaprezentowany zostanie pogląd prawny, i jego uzasadnienie, według którego, w przypadku gdy wierzytelność zabezpieczona rzeczowo na majątku dłużnika zostaje objęta układem częściowym wówczas egzekucja co do niej ulega bezwzględnemu zawieszeniu z mocy samego prawa (ipso iure)
Three three-letter words in three recent novels in three different languages: God, sex and joy
2017
In this article, the authors propose to analyse the ways in which religion and sexuality are related to one another in three recent novels: (1) Fransi Phillips�s Die donker god (2007), (2) Inga �olude�s Santa Biblia (2013) and (3) Michel Houellebecq�s Soumission [English translation: Submission] (2015). In each case, the novels are briefly placed within their respective literary cultures (Afrikaans, Latvian and French) in order to offer a contextually sensitive analysis. After each of the novels has been discussed related to the three related topoi of God, sex and joy, some comparative remarks are offered in conclusion.Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: In this contrib…
