Le competenze nello spazio globale dell'educazione. Discorsi, modelli e misure
No full textNell'articolo, sulla base di un ampio quadro di letteratura interdisciplinare, intendiamo
discutere di come, negli ultimi decenni, il concetto di competenza sia andato emergendo nel campo educativo.
In prima battuta, vogliamo proporre una ricostruzione del viaggio delle competenze nei vari
contesti e discipline. In secondo luogo, presentiamo alcuni modelli di competenze che stanno emergendo sia
a livello internazionale che nazionale. Inoltre si discute su come le competenze siano state assunte come parametri
di misurazione all'interno delle Grandi Surveys a livello internazionale. Infine, vengono proposte alcune considerazioni critiche sull'argomento.The paper, based on a broad framework of interdisciplinary literature, we intend
to discuss how, in the last decades, the concept of competence emerges in the educational field.
First of all we aim to propose a reconstruction of “the journey” of competences in the various
contest, discipline and in many different debates. Secondly we introduce some models of
competences that are emerging both at the international and at national level. Moreover we
discuss how the competences are assumed as measurement parameters within the Large
Surveys at international level. Finally, some critical considerations on the topic are proposed
From Bench to Bed, Back and Beyond: The Four Bs of Biomedical Research
No full textAbstract: Contemporary biomedicine is characterized by the ever-closer connection between clinical practice and research. Laboratories become nodes of articulated networks, making it no longer possible to consider them as single entities. In light of these changes, a wide range of actors – researchers, scientific instruments, data-bases, experts in bio-informatics and bio-statistics, pharmaceutical companies, clinicians, drugs, patients, cells, ethical and regulatory issues – are involved. In this Introduction, we address why these processes represent a relevant challenge for social sciences as well

L’autonomia dopo l’Autonomia nella scuola. Premesse, esiti e prospettive di una policy intermittente
No full textIl paper propone una panoramica delle Politiche di Autonomia Scolastica in Italia dal suo esordio ad oggi. L'analisi mette a confronto le premesse e le promesse dell'Autonomia collegandole ai nuovi fenomeni apparsi recentemente nel mondo della scuola. Nella trattazione viene inoltre effettuato un confronto tra Autonomia e rendimento degli studenti. L'analisi è condotta da una prospettiva multidisciplinare combinando approcci che vanno dall'analisi delle politiche educative alla sociologia dell'educazione.The paper proposes an overview of School Autonomy Policy in Italy from its debut to today. The analysis compares the premises and promises of Autonomy by linking it to new phenomena that recently appeared in the world of school. A comparison is made between Autonomy and students’ performance. The analysis is conducted from a multidisciplinary perspective by combining approaches that range from educational policies to the sociology of education
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
