Modelli narrativi e dimensioni temporali
No full textIl presente saggio riporta le conclusioni di una ricerca finalizzata all’avvio delle prove di validazione di un test sui modelli narrativi; tale test è stato elaborato da M. Piccinno nel 2005 con lo scopo di individuare la modalità narrativa attraverso la quale il soggetto racconta a sé stesso e agli altri la propria storia di vita. Lo scopo della presente ricerca è quello di proseguire nelle procedure di validazione dei costrutti e degli item del test
di Piccinno, attraverso un percorso di analisi
focalizzato su tre diverse procedure di verifica.
La prima di esse consiste nell’analisi fattoriale
condotta sui risultati prodotti dal test
in esame su un gruppo di 500 adolescenti. La
seconda operazione consiste nel sottoporre
al test di Cronbach i risultati ricavati dall’analisi
fattoriale. Infine, si procederà a calcolare
gli indici di correlazione tra i punteggi relativi
agli item del test in esame e i punteggi
dello “Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory”

Descrivere, narrare, interpretare. La didattica per la persona
No full textScomparsa il 9 set 2021, ad 84 anni di età, la prof. Sira Serenella Macchietti lascia una cospicua produzione scientifica (più di 600 articoli e 19 monografie) e la testimonianza di un instancabile impegno nel sociale a vantaggio delle bambine, dei bambini e delle istituzioni educative per l’infanzia, perché l’educazione è un fatto coessenziale alla vita umana, come Ella diceva.
Per onorarne la memoria, l’Università di Foggia, memore del lascito scientifico, etico e sociale di Sira Serenella Macchietti, ha chiamato a raccolta un gruppo di studiosi cui si devono i saggi qui raccolti, alcuni dei quali presentati anche nel corso di un seminario tenutosi nel giugno scorso.
Il volume nasce perciò con il concorso di una pluralità di Autori: Angori S., Arsena A., Bobbio A., Bochicchio F., D’Amante M.F., Del Gottardo E., di Corcia S., di Furia M., Doronzo F., Finestrone F., Grange Sergi T., Guarini P.

An IoT Model for Coping with Trade-offs in Designing Smart Environments
No full textThe Internet of Things (IoT) world is composed by a huge number of different so called “smart devices” and every year new and different models are released on the mass market. Most of those devices are intended to be used by professional people or by companies. Thanks to the constant growth of the “smart objects”, end users and people with low or no-knowledge of the IT-world get in touch with these pieces of technology. Those people are expected to use the smart devices “out of the box” and in a very simple and easy way so, the human-device interaction needs to be as easiest as possible. Despite of this need, end users are commonly faced with thousand of different technological standards which are hard to evaluate without a solid IT background. Thus, the comparison to understand which IoT device performs better in a particular situation become complicated. In this paper we propose a comparison of two different IoT solutions using an IoT model. The model assesses the different technical specifications of the devices and then extracts a “score” for each technological aspect. The end user can use the score to better understand the points of strength and the weaknesses of the devices. Copyright © 2018 for the individual papers by the papers' authors
From identity in progress to in-between spaces. The role of spatial design in refiguring the landscape of the diffuse urban realities of postmodernity.
No full textTo act in terms of design on our diffusely developed urbanised realities is something that today needs not a little thought and consideration, starting with a few big questions: who is the man who inhabits these realities? Which society supports them? What type of town or city occupies/characterises them? What are the features of the spaces and environments that define them?
The first challenge for designers of the third millennium could be understanding the real meaning of man, the so-called post-industrial society, the city, and its environments.
The second concrete challenge is to try and respond with the agile tools of design to the densely packed questions posed by the demand and the many opportunities that follow them
Proceedings of the CHItaly 2015 Doctoral Consortium (DC@CHItaly 2015)
No full textPreface:
This volume collects the papers presented at the CHItaly 2015 Doctoral Consortium, held in Rome (Italy) on September 28th, 2015. The CHItaly conference is a biannual event organized by the SIGCHI Italian Chapter. After the successful first edition in 2013, it hosted for the second time a Doctoral Consortium with the aim of supporting PhD students to present and share ideas about their research and gather feedback from senior experts. A good number of contributions was received, mainly from Italian PhD students but also from abroad. After a careful review process, we finally selected 7 papers for presentation at the doctoral consortium. The selection was based on the maturity of the described research and its potential impact, and on quality of writing and presentation. The accepted papers span a good variety of themes, showing the vitality of the Italian CHI community and its capability to attract contributions from abroad. During the event, PhD students were provided with a friendly and lively atmosphere for presenting their research ideas and exchanging experiences with other students. They also received useful suggestions from senior researchers for the completion of their dissertation. We are immensely grateful to the panel of experts attending the event, and to the reviewers of the papers, namely Federico Cabitza, Francesco Colace, Daniela Fogli, Stephen Kimani, Andrea Marrella, Stavros Vassos, Andrea Vitaletti, who provided careful reviews and supportive feedbacks on the students’ current research and guidance on future directions. Wealso deeply thank the PhD students, for contributing and enthusiastically presenting their research, and the CHItaly 2015 Conference Chairs for giving us the possibility of organizing the Doctoral Consortium
The Economic Structure of Maritime Trade Calling at the Port of Genoa Through the Analysis of General Average Data (Sixteenth–Seventeenth Centuries)
No full textThis essay will discuss the preliminary results emerging from data extrap-olated from General Average (GA) procedures in Genoa, between the last decade of the sixteenth century and the 1640s. The wealth of data provided by GA procedures compensates for some of the gaps in quanti-tative data which have held back research on the local maritime economy. Methodologically, this essay further develops the insights of Giuseppe Felloni’s work on GA’s potential for economic analysis.1 The rich docu-mentation produced during GA procedures, from the original report (testimoniale) to the final apportioning of costs (calculus), provides details for typology of vessel, provenance, route, flag and cargo. This data sheds new light on Mediterranean maritime trade during a fundamental period of structural change, characterized by the emergence of new protagonists and the creation of new equilibria
