Theoretical and Practical Approaches to Non-Formal Education
In this collection of work, the contributing authors tackle the topic of non-formal education from a variety of disciplines, such as computer science, psychology, education, science education, literacy, music, art, and social studies by sharing original perspectives, and proposing novel educational approaches. The book chapters present insights into designing and carrying out non-formal education activities, operational management strategies related to non-formal education, activating and creating the well-being of participants in non-formal education activities, and implementing active learning. The current volume appeals to a wide audience, including teachers, parents, students, and education specialists, as well as researchers and community members working with youth and children. Moreover, this volume appeals to an international audience, as the contributing authors are from various countries, including the USA, Indonesia, Italy, Romania, and Spain. The interdisciplinary and global perspective presented in the current volume makes it not only valuable for the educational field, but unique, compared to similar publications in the field.
Linguistic and Translation Studies in Scientific Communication
This volume offers a collection of papers which seek to provide further insights into the way scientific and technical knowledge is communicated (i.e., written, transmitted, and translated) nowadays, not only in the academic sphere but also in society as a whole. Language in science has traditionally been valued for prioritising objective, propositional content; however, interpersonal and pragmatic dimensions as well as translation perspectives are worth exploring in order to better understand the mechanisms of specialised communication. Accordingly, the contributions in this volume cover topics of special interest to scholars and researchers in the fields of linguistics and translation, such as the popularisation and transmission of scientific knowledge via ICTs; terminology and corpus-based studies in scientific discourse; genres and discourse in scientific and technical communication; the history and evolution of scientific language; and translation of scientific texts.

Understanding Media, Today. McLuhan in the Era of Convergence Culture
Renewing Middle School Facilities
This book draws on important original transdisciplinary research to address a wide range of issues relating to the remodeling of existing schools for pre-teenagers to fit them to various novel teaching models (e.g. collaborative learning, ICT integration, and out-of-classroom working) and to create effective educational environments for the future. The strong relationship between people’s wellbeing, physical environment and student learning in schools has already been extensively studied in international research. At the same time, a number of different scenarios of possible innovations are now emerging, and these require conscious choices in terms of designing both the ways and the places...
eReaders ed eBooks nelle università
La diffusione degli strumenti portatili per la lettura digitale, eReaders a inchiostro elettronico e Tablet, si sta propagando in modo esponenziale. Anche la lettura su SmartPhone sta diventando un’abitudine ampiamente generalizzata. Inoltre, le generazioni più giovani, ma anche gli studenti universitari, sono utenti assidui del web e delle tecnologie digitali e hanno maturato una familiarità specifica con questa tipologia di contenuti. Questo testo presenta pertanto i risultati di una ricerca quantitativa volta ad esplorare le dichiarazioni di utilizzo, gli atteggiamenti e le opinioni di studenti, professori, bibliotecari e personale amministrativo relativamente agli strumenti di lettura digitale e ai contenuti digitali. Esso offre inoltre una panoramica esaustiva dello stadio evolutivo dell'editoria digitale accademica italiana e internazionale, offrendo spunti interpretativi che aiutino a delineare le prospettive future.
