Dynamics of Welfare for Elderly Protection
Full text linkSummary , we set ourselves to offer a technical examination relating on elder interventions and changes that they have had in the history of welfare, through the study of historical reference periods on assistance and wellness, providing an interesting support for this study offered by experiential witness personally experienced providing aid and care for the elderly. Le dinamiche del welfare per la protezione dell’anzianoCi proponiamo di offrire una disamina tecnica relativa agli interventi sull’anziano ed alle evoluzioni che essi hanno avuto durante la storia del welfare, mediante lo studio di epoche storiche di riferimento in materia di assistenza e benessere, fornendo un' interessante sostegno a tale studio offerto dalla testimonianza esperienziale personalmente vissuta prestando aiuto e cura agli anziani.Parole Chiave: Welfare, anziano, benessere, assistenza, solitudine
Alcuni aspetti della discalculia e della dislessia
Full text linkIn this paper some difficulties associated with dyscalculia and dyslexia are examined. Several of these difficulties depend either on mnemo-nic problems or on lateralization defects. Here some suggestions in order to weaken them are propose
Finite Geometries: a tool for better understanding of Euclidean Geometry
No full textAn effective tool to really understand Euclidean geometry is the study of alternative models and their applications. In fact, they allow you to understand the real extent of various axioms that, when viewed from the Euclidean geometry, seem obvious or even unnecessary. The work begins with a review of Hilbert's axiomatic, starting from more general point of view adopted by Albrecht Beutelspacher and Ute Rosenbaum in their book on the fundamentals of general projective geometry (1998), defined by a system of incidence axioms. Le Geometrie Finite: uno strumento per una migliore comprensione della Geometria EuclideaUno strumento efficace per comprendere realmente la geometria euclidea è lo studio di modelli alternativi e delle loro applicazioni. Infatti essi permettono di capire la reale portata di vari assiomi che visti dall’interno della geometria euclidea sembrerebbero scontati o addirittura inutili. Il lavoro parte da una rivisitazione dell’assiomatica di Hilbert a partire dal punto di vista più generale adottato da Albrecht Beutelspacher e Ute Rosenbaum nel loro libro del 1998 sui fondamenti della geometria proiettiva generale, definita attraverso un sistema di assiomi di incidenza.

Il contributo dei giochi matematici all'innovazione didattica
Full text linkThe contribution intends to illustrate the possible role of the mathematics games as stimulus to didactics, in order to make the students interested in non standard “mathematical” situations, with the aim to facilitate the approach through problems to the learning of the subject
The Epistemological Dimensions of Pedagogy
Full text linkPedagogic epistemology, as an autonomous philosophical subject, studies the development of knowledge in general. As subject applied in the domain of education science it has as specific aim the study of pedagogical knowledge, the manner in which the fundamental concepts in the domain of educational theory, training theory, curriculum theory, are built. The main aim of epistemology is to think critically about pedagogy, the research from the domain of education, training and curriculum. The part of pedagogic epistemology – as critic and problematic thinking – is to give to pedagogy that gnosiologic and heuristic aspect which confers to its ontological, methodological and normative step status of science
A magical way for educatıon: visual literacy
Full text link“Visual literacy is education that enhances understanding of the role and function of images in representation and communication, especially in the media.” (Newfield 2011:82). Debes (1969:27) said that; “ Visual Literacy refers to a group of vision-competences a human being can develop by seeing and at the same time having and integrating other sensory experiences.” Education of visual literacy is important for understanding of true meaning of messages in visual elements. Hobbs (2002 cited from Shurtleff 2006:13) claimed, “Epicureans believed that, in fact, the mind cannot think without images.” Samuels and Samuels (1975 cited from Shurtleff 2006:13) also claimed “the archeological record reveals that the first expressions of thougt are visual, not vocal”. In our daily life, visual technology and media literacy has become increasingly popular in our world. We use when we give information, from websites, give PowerPoint presentations, and sketch on Smartboards to get our memories, ideas across. Teenagers, who have come of age in a technological world , they must learn how they can use visual literacy.Teachers should use, in our age, video games, eager consumers of graphic novels, illustrations, photos, diagrams, graphs, symbols, icons and other visual representations
For an interactive reading of the territory and the city spaces, relationships, urban morphology, cultural patterns and forms of economic and political power
No full textIn this paper we emphasize the need for a multidisciplinary approach to support the urban and territorial research; it can contribute to the knowledge of the area and city with the aim of direct transformations and future development. Therefore, we need to acquire sophisticated tools and talk simpler language and insightful in order to respond to the social demand for local knowledge. We have to study a new paradigm to understand social phenomena; the old perspectives of urban sociology, but also planning and analysis of territorial systems, is today replaced by an integrated view in which we do not evaluate and not only analyze the more specific objects of the individual disciplines but a number of variables and components in synergy. Per una lettura interattiva del territorio e della città: spazi, relazioni, morfologia urbana, modelli culturali e forme di potere economico e politicoIn questo lavoro si sottolinea la necessità di un approccio multidisciplinare integrato in grado di supportare la ricerca in campo urbano e territoriale e che possa concorrere alla conoscenza del territorio e della città per orientarne trasformazioni e sviluppo futuro. Si palesa attraverso le molteplici riflessioni la necessità di dover acquisire strumenti sofisticati e parlare, sia pure ciascuno per le proprie competenze, linguaggi più semplici e penetranti al fine di poter rispondere alla domanda sociale di conoscenza del territorio. La verifica quindi di un nuovo paradigma conoscitivo ed interpretativo dei fenomeni sociali si pone con forza, dacché alle vecchie prospettive della sociologia urbana, ma anche dell'urbanistica e dell'analisi dei sistemi territoriali, si va oggi sostituendo una visione integrata, nella quale non si valutano e non si analizzano più soltanto gli oggetti più specifici delle singole discipline ma una serie di variabili e componenti in sinergia.Parole Chiave: Città; territorio; rappresentazione e modelli; relazioni sociali; pratiche e usi del suol
The loxodromic curves in Architecture
No full textIn this paper the authors explain the geometrical properties of the loxodromic curves and show how their properties have been used in many architectural works. For this reason, we will show several examples of architectures in which the bricks, which form these constructions, are arranged along some loxodromic curves. This fact is not surprising since, as we shall see, these lines are identified by a rule that makes it easy their determination during application and useful their use. Le curve Lossodromiche in ArchitetturaIn questa nota si espongono le proprietà geometriche delle curve lossodromiche e si mostra come le loro proprietà siano state utilizzate in moltissime opere architettoniche. Per questo motivo mostreremo diversi esempi di architetture in cui i mattoni, che le compongono, si dispongono lungo delle lossodromiche. Questo fatto non deve meravigliare poiché, come vedremo, queste linee sono individuate da una regola che rende semplice la loro determinazione in fase applicativa ed utile il loro uso.

Tradition and Modernity: Working Culture in the Western Model and Japanese Model, as an Expression of a Cultural Models. A First Reading
Full text linkIn this short article, I'll leave the application of cultural models (in the West and in Japan), which define and construct a new reality (linguistic, cultural, social, work). Through this first reading will redefine better the cultural aspect of both worlds and you will better understand the similarities and differences between the Western model (even for the synthesis made by Adriano Olivetti) and the Japanese model (which is not only a way of producing, but also is a cultural expression)
