Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can archaeology be considered a factor of socio-economic development for civil society? This, in short, is the question underlying the first national workshop devoted to Public Archaeology (Archeologia Pubblica in Toscana: un progetto e una proposta, Aula Magna, 12 July 2010), organised by the Chair of Mediaeval Archaeology of the University of Florence with the collaboration of the Universities of Pisa and Siena. The meeting also provided the opportunity to communicate the socio-economic results of a case study of projects that the Tuscan universities have recently successfully developed in this sector, involving local authorities, museums, public and private enterprises in forms of active partnership. Public archaeology is seen as the updating of the original vocation of the discipline to address the contemporary, in terms of economics, governance, communication, identity of the archaeological assets and the respective social communities.

Download or read book DSA e valutazione written by Paola Damiani and published by Edizioni Nuova Cultura. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nella scuola attuale, ogni giorno, insegnanti, studenti e famiglie si trovano di fronte a “vecchi e nuovi” problemi nella gestione di tutte le dinamiche connesse al complesso mondo dei DSA. Il volume intende offrire spunti per una riflessione approfondita su una delle tematiche cruciali e di grande complessità, relativa al rapporto tra DSA e valutazione. In linea generale, DSA e valutazione costituiscono due temi “caldi” e relativamente recenti per la riflessione pedagogica e didattica e per la pratica quotidiana a scuola; attorno ad essi si snodano criticità e opportunità, esclusioni e successi, fatiche e benessere. L’esperienza della valutazione per gli allievi con DSA assume connotazioni differenti a seconda delle tipologie (valutazione diagnostica, scolastica, formativa, selettiva…) e dei contesti, ma, in ogni caso, l’impatto e gli esiti saranno di grande rilevanza per la loro vita. Il testo si rivolge principalmente agli insegnanti, agli educatori, ai dirigenti scolastici, agli studenti (Scienze della Formazione, dell’Educazione, PAS) e ai genitori e rappresenta un’occasione per porsi delle domande e acquisire consapevolezze, provando a leggere i processi relativi ai DSA e alla valutazione attraverso una prospettiva pedagogica, che offra una chiave interpretativa critica, plurale e circolare per l’individuazione e la problematizzazione delle reciproche connessioni e implicazioni. La relazione tra i due oggetti viene tematizzata attraverso l’esplorazione delle differenti situazioni in cui studenti e docenti si trovano a doverla concretamente gestire, quali, ad esempio, la valutazione degli errori nei compiti scolastici, la valutazione e gli esami di Stato, la valutazione funzionale del disturbo, anche attraverso esemplificazioni concrete. Le riflessioni educative e gli stimoli didattici proposti sono validi per tutta la classe e contribuiscono alla costruzione di una cultura della valutazione secondo un’ottica inclusiva ancora deficitaria nella realtà di molte scuole. La finalità ultima del volume consiste nel favorire la capacità degli educatori di mettere in discussione atteggiamenti e pratiche per realizzare tutte le condizioni (personali e ambientali) in grado di favorire lo sviluppo delle capacità di ciascuno. In tal senso, la valutazione a scuola – e non solo – rappresenta un potente fattore contestuale di facilitazione o (purtroppo ancora troppo spesso) di ostacolo all’apprendimento, alla partecipazione e al benessere dei nostri studenti.
Download or read book Language Acquisition Processing and Bilingualism written by Anna Cardinaletti and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together selected papers from the conference “The Romance Turn VII” held in Venice in October 2015, this volume focuses on a broad range of topics at the heart of the current debate on language acquisition, including clitic pronouns, left-dislocations, passives, relative clauses, and wh-questions. It explores these topics within a range of different acquisition settings, such as L1 and L2 acquisition, bilingualism, typical and atypical development. In addition to syntax, the volume covers other modules of grammar, namely, semantics, pragmatics, and phonology, and adds a perspective on language processing to current discussions on the acquisition of Romance languages. This book also includes contributions on atypical language acquisition in cases of deafness and on language intervention based on formal linguistics. It will appeal not only to scholars and students interested in the nature and processes behind first, second and bilingual language acquisition, and impaired language acquisition, but also to language educators and clinicians.

Download or read book Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy written by Susan M. Knell and published by Jason Aronson, Incorporated. This book was released on 1995-10-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive-Behavioral Play Therapy (CBPT) incorporates cognitive and behavioral interventions within a play therapy paradigm. It provides a theoretical framework based on cognitive-behavioral principles and integrates these in a developmentally sensitive way. Thus, play as well as verbal and nonverbal approaches are used in resolving problems. CBPT differs from nondirective play therapy, which avoids any direct discussion of the child's difficulties. A specific problem-solving approach is utilized, which helps the child develop more adaptive thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral therapies are based on the premise that cognitions determine how people feel and act, and that faulty cognitions can contribute to psychological disturbance. Cognitive-behavioral therapies focus on identifying maladaptive thoughts, understanding the assumptions behind the thoughts, and learning to correct or counter the irrational ideas that interfere with healthy functioning. Since their development approximately twenty-five years ago, such therapies have traditionally been used with adults and only more recently with adolescents and children. It has commonly been thought that preschool-age and school-age children are too young to understand or correct distortions in their thinking. However, the recent development of CBPT reveals that cognitive strategies can be used effectively with young children if treatments are adapted in order to be developmentally sensitive and attuned to the child's needs. For example, while the methods of cognitive therapy can be communicated to adults directly, these may need to be conveyed to children indirectly, through play activities. In particular, puppets and stuffed animals can be very helpful in modeling the use of cognitive strategies such as countering irrational beliefs and making positive self-statements. CBPT is structured and goal oriented and intervention is directive in nature.

Download or read book Frailty in Children written by Mario Lima and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the management strategies of complex conditions of frail pediatric patients. The clinical condition of frailty is usually seen as the physiological and multidimensional decline of organ systems related to age: paradoxically, a frailty condition can also occur in children as a disability resulting from various congenital or acquired diseases. The fragile patients are more vulnerable to developing severe clinical events and often need surgical interventions. Moreover, those patients have significant morbidity and lower quality of life. The improvement in managing fragile patients has improved their life expectancy, but in most health care systems, the passage from childhood to adulthood is a critical point for the lack of medical figures able to provide the continuity of care. The book aims to provide guidance for dealing with medical and surgical emergencies and to develop short and long-term treatment strategies, and will provide an analysis of the different and the most innovative techniques. This book will be an unvaluable tool for Pediatric surgeons, Anesthesiologists, Critical Care Physicians, Hospital and family Pediatricians, nurses, Physiotherapists and Psychologists.
Download or read book Financial Calculus written by Martin Baxter and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-19 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rewards and dangers of speculating in the modern financial markets have come to the fore in recent times with the collapse of banks and bankruptcies of public corporations as a direct result of ill-judged investment. At the same time, individuals are paid huge sums to use their mathematical skills to make well-judged investment decisions. Here now is the first rigorous and accessible account of the mathematics behind the pricing, construction and hedging of derivative securities. Key concepts such as martingales, change of measure, and the Heath-Jarrow-Morton model are described with mathematical precision in a style tailored for market practitioners. Starting from discrete-time hedging on binary trees, continuous-time stock models (including Black-Scholes) are developed. Practicalities are stressed, including examples from stock, currency and interest rate markets, all accompanied by graphical illustrations with realistic data. A full glossary of probabilistic and financial terms is provided. This unique book will be an essential purchase for market practitioners, quantitative analysts, and derivatives traders.
