    Limited research has explored the delivery of sustainable design in higher education globally. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to investigate educational practices on the topic. Through an online survey, we investigated numerous aspects of units of study exposing topics related to sustainable design with a focus on contents, teaching methods and educational objectives. The survey was accessed by almost 400 educators in the field of sustainable design. The data show that a variety of teaching methods are used, with a critical role played by project-based learning in addition to traditional lectures. Most respondents rated all investigated intended learning outcomes as relevant or very relevant. In terms of contents and methods treated by the respondents, product eco-design and design for X are the most frequently taught methods. Educational approaches and teaching objectives are poorly affected by the discipline of the degree in which units of study are taught. In terms of contents, design degrees include approaches to sustainable design at the spatio-social level more frequently than engineering degrees do.The participation of the co-author Aurora Berni is funded by the European Social Fund Plus, Project code ESF2_f3_0005, CUP: B56F24000100001, Research projects on strategic topics for South Tyrolean economy executed by research assistants (AR)

    El objetivo de Fruta del día es el aprovechamiento didáctico de la poesía contemporánea de temática grecolatina en el aula de Cultura Clásica. Partiendo de una selección de poemas de la autora Aurora Luque, se propondrá una serie de ejercicios con los que se trabajarán diferentes contenidos curriculares de la asignatura. Se dará una especial importancia a la escritura creativa y a sus beneficios en el aprendizaje. Esta propuesta va destinada a los alumnos del segundo curso de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, pero susceptible de adaptación para la asignatura homónima en el cuarto curso de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria. Tras la delimitación del marco teórico, se desarrollará la composición del proyecto, que culminará en el cuaderno de trabajo que se propone.The aim of this project is to present a didactic proposal based in the use of contemporary poetry inspired by Greek and Roman themes in Classical Culture’s classroom.

    Methods of Desire: Language, Morality, and Affect in Neoliberal Indonesia.

    Since the Asian financial crisis of the late 1990s, Indonesia has undergone a radical program of administrative decentralization and neoliberal reforms. In Methods of Desire, author Aurora Donzelli explores these changes through an innovative perspective—one that locates the production of neoliberalism in novel patterns of language use and new styles of affect display. Building on almost two decades of fieldwork, Donzelli describes how the growing influence of transnational lending agencies is transforming the ways in which people desire and voice their expectations, intentions, and entitlements within the emergent participatory democracy and restructuring of Indonesia’s political economy. She argues that a largely overlooked aspect of the Era Reformasi concerns the transition from a moral regime centered on the expectation that desires should remain hidden to a new emphasis on the public expression of individuals’ aspirations. The book examines how the large-scale institutional transformations that followed the collapse of the Suharto regime have impacted people’s lives and imaginations in the relatively remote and primarily rural Toraja highlands of Sulawesi. A novel concept of the individual as a bundle of audible and measurable desires has emerged, one that contrasts with the deep-rooted reticence toward the expression of personal preferences. The spreading of foreign discursive genres such as customer satisfaction surveys, training sessions, electoral mission statements, and fundraising auctions, and the diffusion of new textual artifacts such as checklists, flowcharts, and workflow diagrams are producing forms of citizenship, political participation, and moral agency that contrast with the longstanding epistemologies of secrecy typical of local styles of knowledge and power. Donzelli’s long-term ethnographic study examines how these foreign protocols are being received, absorbed, and readapted in a peripheral community of the Indonesian archipelago. Combining a telescopic perspective on our contemporary moment with a microscopic analysis of conversational practices, the author argues that the managerial forms of political rationality and the entrepreneurial morality underwriting neoliberal apparatuses proliferate through the working of small cogs, that is, acts of speech. By examining these concrete communicative exchanges, she sheds light on both the coherence and inconsistency underlying the worldwide diffusion of market logic to all domains of life
