The rapid development of technology and the need for Primary School-age children in educational innovation to compete in the modern era provide a paradigm that needs to be studied more deeply on how urgent technology is in Primary School. Based on this, the researchers analyzed the urgency of technology-based education for Primary School in Indonesia. The method in this research is a literature review that examines the importance of the topics discussed and compares the results with findings in other studies on the same issue. Based on the research results, the urgency of technology-based education in Primary School is as follows. (1) The characteristics of Primary School-age children who like exciting things and like varied learning enable technology as a concrete solution, (2) Technology can facilitate educators in giving assignments to students in gathering information from various sources, including from the internet (3) Technology can minimize internal weaknesses, (4) Technology-based education can reach all learning areas anytime and anywhere so that the role of technology in learning in Primary School can facilitate the formation of collaborative relationships and build meaning in easier contexts. Technology-based education for Primary School has three main functions used in learning activities: (1) Technology functions as a tool. In this case, technology is used as a tool for educators to convey learning information in the form of knowledge to students to make it easier for them to understand the material. (2) Technology functions as science. In this case, technology is part of a scientific discipline that students must master. (3) Technology functions as materials and tools for learning (literacy). In this case, technology is interpreted as a learning material and a tool to master a computer-assisted competency. In this case, the position of technology is no different from that of a teacher who functions as a facilitator, motivator, transmitter, and evaluator

I TESTI NEOMEDIALI E LE TECNOLOGIE DELL’INFORMAZIONE E DELLA COMUNICAZIONE NELLA DIDATTICA DELL’ITALIANO. POTENZIALITÀ E SFIDE
Authors: Prada Massimo
Published: December 2023

L'articolo propone alcune riflessioni sull’uso dei testi massmediali e neomediali e, più in generale, delle Tecnologie dell’Informazione e della Comunicazione (TIC) nella didattica dell’italiano, specie come lingua seconda (L2) e lingua straniera (LS) alla luce delle evoluzioni recenti nella struttura e nella diffusione dei media di massa (giornali e riviste, radio, cinema, produzione televisiva e radiofonica...), dei media sociali (Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest...) e delle istanze di intelligenza artificiale accessibili al grande pubblico  (ChatGPT, Bing). Il contenuto è suddiviso in due parti. La prima contiene considerazioni generali – teoriche e di moteodo – in merito alle  attività formative proposte nella seconda; e quest’ultima si sofferma in maniera specifica sulle TIC, sulle possibilità didattiche che offrono, sui testi con cui rendono possibile lavorare, avanzando alcune proposte applicative e offrendo anche qualche indicazione bibliografica per l’approfondimento.

 

Neo-media texts and information and communication technologies in the teaching of italian. Potential and challenges

The article offers some reflections on the use of massmediatic and online texts and, more generally, on the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in teaching Italian, especially as a second language (L2) and as a foreign language (FL) in the light of recent developments in the structure and diffusion of mass media (newspapers and magazines, radio, cinema, television and radio production...), social media (Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest...) and of artificial intelligence instances accessible to the general public (ChatGPT, Bing). The text is divided in two parts: the first contains theoretical and methodological considerations regarding the training activities proposed in the second; and the latter focuses specifically on ICT, on the teaching possibilities they offer, on the texts with which they make it possible to work, putting forward some application proposals and also offering some bibliographical indications for further study.
ANALISI PRAGMATICA DI UN CORPUS TASK-BASED DI PARLATO SPONTANEO E DIALOGHI DIDATTICI
Authors: Castagneto Marina , Ferrari Stefania
Published: December 2023

La letteratura dedicata all’analisi dei manuali didattici ha da tempo evidenziato una serie di lacune nei materiali input in termini di modello conversazionale suggerendo l’impiego di corpora come fonte per la costruzione di risorse didattiche. Con l’intento di contribuire al dibattito sul tema, il presente lavoro discute uno studio pilota mirato a confrontare parlato spontaneo e dialoghi didattici in interazioni task-based orientate al compito Ordinare al tavolo di un ristorante. L’analisi pragmatica dei due tipi di dialogo ha portato all’identificazione della struttura sequenziale di questo tipo di interazione, oltre che al riconoscimento dei ruoli interazionali del cameriere e del cliente nelle diverse fasi della conversazione. Il confronto ha evidenziato inoltre come i dialoghi dei manuali e le interazioni spontanee rappresentino due diversi modelli interazionali: il parlato spontaneo prevede un’agenda nascosta e rappresenta un tipo peculiare di parlato istituzionale; i dialoghi didattici trattano invece il task come una conversazione ordinaria di tipo simmetrico. Questi primi risultati, oltre ad aprire la strada ad ulteriori indagini, offrono una serie di indicazioni operative per la didattica, sia in termini di selezione degli input che di progettazione di attività.

 

A pragmatic analysis of a task-based corpus of spontaneous speech and instructional dialogues

The literature dedicated to the analysis of teaching materials has highlighted a series of limitations in the input materials in terms of conversational model, suggesting the use of corpora as a source for the effective planning of teaching resources. With the aim of contributing to the current debate, the present work discusses a pilot study aimed at comparing spontaneous speech and teaching dialogues in task-based interactions oriented to the task of Ordering at a restaurant table. The pragmatic analysis of the two types of data led to the identification of the sequential structure of the interactions considered, as well as the recognition of waiter and customer interactional roles at different stages of this kind of interaction. The comparison also highlighted how teaching dialogues and spontaneous interactions represent two different interactional models: spontaneous speech involves a hidden agenda and it is structured as a peculiar institutional speech; didactic dialogues instead treat the task as an ordinary symmetrical conversation. These first results pave the way for further investigations and offer a series of practical suggestions for teaching, both in terms of input selection and activities development.
“NON SIAMO QUESTE ESPERTE”. USI VALUTATIVI DEI DEITTICI PROSSIMALI E DISTALI
Authors: Benigni Valentina , Bernasconi Beatrice
Published: December 2023

In questo contributo si indagano alcuni tipi di costruzioni dell’italiano in cui i deittici prossimali e distali, a partire dalle funzioni originarie, hanno sviluppato delle ulteriori funzionalità pragmatico-discorsive. In particolare, i dimostrativi questo e quello all’interno di alcune specifiche configurazioni sintattico-discorsive possono assumere funzione valutativa e intensificare o mitigare gli attributi qualitativi del referente, facendo leva su conoscenze realmente condivise dai parlanti o presupposte come tali. Tramite l’analisi di dati autentici estratti dal webcorpus itTenTen20 e adottando un approccio misto (corpus-driven e corpus-based), ci proponiamo di descrivere i processi inferenziali che permettono all’interlocutore di attivare la lettura valutativa dei deittici in due particolari costruzioni: [quel N lì] e [(N1) non è (che sia) questo N2].

 

“We are not these experts”. Evaluative uses of proximal and distal deictics

In this contribution, we intend to investigate two Italian constructions in which proximal and distal deictics, starting from their original functions, have developed additional discursive-pragmatic functions. In particular, the demonstratives questo ‘this’ and quello ‘that’ within some specific syntactic and discursive configurations can take on evaluative functions. They can intensify or mitigate the qualitative attributes of the referent, drawing on the knowledge shared by the speakers or presupposed as such. Through the analysis of authentic data from the itTenTen20 webcorpus and adopting a mixed approach (both corpus-driven and corpus-based), we aim to describe the inferential processes that enable the interlocutor to activate the evaluative reading of deictics in two specific constructions: [quel N lì] and [(N1) non è (che sia) questo N2].
IMPLICIT REGISTER MARKING IN GERMAN VIA METAPHOR AND METONYMY
Authors: Egg Markus
Published: December 2023

In this article, we examined implicit register marking through metaphor and metonymy. Specifically, we intended to analyse the ways in which metaphor and metonymy are used to mark register properties in selected text types. As an empirical basis for this investigation, we annotated a corpus of six text types that exhibit diversity along a number of important register properties (e.g., persuasivity, literality/orality, or hierarchical vs. equal relations between interlocutors). Our results show a strong dependence of metaphor and metonymy on persuasivity, whereas no such dependence was found with respect to literality and orality. Instead, we found a new register property, viz., length restriction, to be strongly correlated with metonymy. Previous results on a correlation between metonymy and interlocutor equality were also confirmed.

 

La marcatura implicita del registro in tedesco attraverso la metafora e la metonimia

In questo articolo esaminiamo la marcatura implicita del registro attraverso la metafora e la metonimia. In particolare, vogliamo analizzare i modi in cui la metafora e la metonimia vengono utilizzate per marcare le proprietà di registro in alcuni tipi di testo. Come base empirica per questa indagine, abbiamo annotato un corpus di sei tipi di testo che presentano diversità lungo una serie di importanti proprietà di registro (ad esempio, persuasività, letteralità/oralità o relazioni gerarchiche o paritarie tra interlocutori). I nostri risultati mostrano una forte dipendenza della metafora e della metonimia dalla persuasività, mentre non è stata riscontrata una simile dipendenza rispetto alla letteralità e all'oralità. Abbiamo invece riscontrato una nuova proprietà del registro, ossia la restrizione della lunghezza, fortemente correlata alla metonimia. Sono stati confermati anche i risultati precedenti sulla correlazione tra metonimia e uguaglianza degli interlocutori.
PRAGMATIC MARKERS AS CONTEXT BOUNDARIES IN INDONESIAN HUMOROUS TALK SHOWS DISCOURSE
Authors: Rahmanadia Hyunisa
Published: December 2023

In building a successful conversation, speakers are bound to bring proper linguistic devices to keep the hearer’s understanding in processing the appropriate inferences beyond the utterances. This study aims to investigate the function of pragmatic markers in creating context boundaries in the cognitive process (Kecskes & Zang, 2014). Pragmatic markers are believed not only to serve the coherence of the discourse but also to signal the speaker’s cognitive process (Blakemore, 1987:144). In this case, pragmatic markers function to guide the hearers in picking up the interlocutor’s knowledge (Nordenstam, 1992) in creating humor. The corpus data used in this study is collected from manual transcription (with annotation) of 10 chosen humorous talk show videos in Indonesian. The investigation focuses on pragmatic marker lho used in Indonesian humorous discourse which suggests that the conversational humor is creatively created with the high frequency of the communicating speaker’s knowledge to create incongruity to fill the conversation with unexpected or even unrealistic ideas that people never imagine. As a result, pragmatic markers lho play essential roles in guiding the hearer to the intended context so that they can choose the appropriate inferences based on the shared knowledge that leads them to grab the humorous sense of the utterances.

 

Marcatori pragmatici come confini del contesto nel discorso dei talk show umoristici indonesiani

Nella costruzione di una conversazione di successo, i parlanti sono tenuti a mettere in atto dispositivi linguistici adeguati per mantenere la comprensione dell’uditore nell’elaborazione delle inferenze appropriate al di là degli enunciati. Questo studio si propone di indagare la funzione dei marcatori pragmatici nel creare confini contestuali nel processo cognitivo (Kecskes, Zang, 2014). Si ritiene che i marcatori pragmatici non servano solo alla coerenza del discorso, ma anche a segnalare il processo cognitivo del parlante (Blakemore, 1987). In questo caso, i marcatori pragmatici hanno la funzione di guidare gli uditori a cogliere le conoscenze dell’interlocutore (Nordenstam, 1992) nel creare umorismo. I dati del corpus utilizzati in questo studio sono tratti dalla trascrizione manuale (con annotazione) di 10 video di talk show umoristici in indonesiano. L’indagine si concentra sul marcatore pragmatico lho utilizzato nel discorso umoristico indonesiano, che suggerisce che l’umorismo conversazionale è creato in modo creativo con l’alta frequenza delle conoscenze del parlante per creare incongruenza e riempire la conversazione con idee inaspettate o addirittura irrealistiche che le persone non avrebbero mai immaginato. Di conseguenza, i marcatori pragmatici lho svolgono un ruolo essenziale nel guidare l’uditore verso il contesto previsto, in modo che possa scegliere le inferenze appropriate in base alla conoscenza condivisa che lo porta a cogliere il senso umoristico degli enunciati.
PREDICTING IN-HOSPITAL MORTALITY AFTER BLUNT THORACO-ABDOMINAL TRAUMATIC INJURY USING SHOCK INDEX
Authors: SHAIKH SN , ZAHEER F , KHAN H , MAQBOOL N , SHAKEEL B , SHAIKH S
Published: December 2023

Assessing the usefulness of the Shock Index (SI) in isolated blunt torso (thoraco-abdominal) trauma and its effects on resuscitation and predicting mortality is crucial. In this prospective observational study conducted at Ruth K.M. Pfau Civil Hospital, Karachi, individuals aged 16 years or older presenting with isolated thoraco-abdominal trauma were studied. Basic clinical assessments, including the measurement of SI, were carried out, and patients were resuscitated according to protocol. Another set of vitals was taken three hours after resuscitation. Patient progress in the hospital was followed until death or discharge. Both values of SI and DSI were plotted against the patient's outcome. The results showed that values of SI remained elevated even after three hours of resuscitation in the non-survivors group of trauma patients. Furthermore, rates of ICU admissions and surgical interventions were also high among non-survivors. Therefore, this study concludes that SI is an essential factor in predicting mortality in blunt thoraco-abdominal traumatic injuries.

MINISTÉRIO PÚBLICO COMO CLÁUSULA PÉTREA
Authors: Freire Menezes Brenno Augusto
Published: December 2023

A Constituição Federal de 1988, de forma inédita, concedeu ao Ministério Público a condição de instituição permanente e essencial à justiça, o que levou a doutrina a considerar o órgão ministerial como cláusula pétrea implícita, todavia, referida condição, não consegue impedir que o Poder Legislativo apresente Proposta de Emenda Constitucional tendente a enfraquecer ou esvaziar o Parquet. Em razão disso, o presente artigo cogita apresentar apontamentos a respeito da teoria do emendamento constitucional inconstitucional e sua aplicação ao Ministério Público, de modo a reforçar o evidente caráter inconstitucional da PEC tendente a abolir, enfraquecer ou esvaziar o órgão ministerial. Para tanto propõe-se a partir dos dados teóricos obtidos através das pesquisas bibliográfica e documental nacional e internacional realizadas, utilizando-se da metodologia qualitativa e do método hipotético-dedutivo, demonstrar que é inconstitucional a proposta ou a própria emenda constitucional tendente a abolir, enfraquecer ou esvaziar o Ministério Público.

A violação dos direitos de crianças e adolescentes merece atuação imediata com colocação das mesmas em família extensa ou sob tutela do Estado nos Acolhimentos Institucionais. A partir de todo o exposto, o objetivo geral do presente estudo é apresentar a realidade dos acolhimentos institucionais com seus problemas e desafios. O objetivo específico é demonstrar como instrumentos como a audiência pública podem democratizar o enfrentamento dos problemas, inserindo toda a comunidade nas discussões e sanar muitas destas questões. A hipótese é a de que com a participação efetiva e não somente formal da sociedade, os problemas sejam expostos, enfrentados e resolvidos com a atuação de todos. Para isso, foi realizada consulta bibliográfica e documental, além da análise da audiência pública realizada pelo Ministério Público do Ceará. Observa-se a importância da participação social e da rede de proteção na construção de uma política efetiva, considerando a intersetorialidade e transversalidade do tema. Conclui-se pela importância da Audiência Pública no fortalecimento da atuação rede e efetivação dos direitos dos infantes.

A abordagem que o Supremo Tribunal Federal vem dando ao tema do juízo competente para julgar as mais altas autoridades da República não é coerente nem estável. Neste texto, parte-se de uma análise normativa e de casos judiciais apreciados pelo STF e pelo Superior Tribunal de Justiça para, usando o método dedutivo, examinar qual seria o foro competente para julgar os procuradores de Justiça, no quadro de uma federação centralista. A conclusão a que se chega é a de que é uma prerrogativa processual dos procuradores de Justiça serem processados pelo Procurador-Geral da República e julgados pelo STJ, por simetria com os desembargadores estaduais perante os quais oficiam.
ATUAÇÃO DO MINISTÉRIO PÚBLICO NA DISCUSSÃO SOBRE O MOMENTO DA OITIVA DE ADOLESCENTE INFRATOR EM JUÍZO E O ATUAL ENTENDIMENTO DOS TRIBUNAIS SUPERIORES

Published: December 2023

Este artigo propõe-se a tratar sobre a discussão em torno do momento em que adolescentes que cometem atos infracionais devem ser ouvidos em juízo: se na audiência de apresentação ou ao final da oitiva das testemunhas, esse último tal como ocorre no processo penal brasileiro. Para tanto, é necessário enveredar-se primeiramente sobre a análise da natureza jurídica da medida socioeducativa. Em seguida, trata-se sobre o direito da escuta dos adolescentes e de alguns dos princípios norteadores da infância e adolescência: da proteção integral, do interesse superior da criança e do adolescente, do princípio da prioridade absoluta e do princípio do respeito à condição peculiar de pessoa em desenvolvimento. Para demonstrar a atualidade do tema, fez-se a análise dos entendimentos jurisprudenciais anteriores e atuais dos Tribunais Superiores e dos motivos ensejadores da visão adotada pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal – STF, no julgamento do habeas corpus (HC) n. 127.900. Além disso, discorreu-se sobre o projeto de lei, que se encontra em trâmite na Câmara dos Deputados, que cogita revogar a oitiva/apresentação do Ministério Público em apuração de atos infracionais e alterar o interrogatório de adolescentes no processo de apuração de atos infracionais. Por fim, conclui-se qual deve ser a corrente predominante com o intuito de que possam os integrantes do sistema de Justiça, em especial, o membro do Ministério Público, resguardar os direitos dos adolescentes sujeitos ao procedimento para aplicação de medida socioeducativa. Para o desenvolvimento deste artigo, a metodologia adotada foi uma abordagem bibliográfica, associada a uma pesquisa da jurisprudência atual sobre a matéria.
JUSTIÇA PENAL NEGOCIADA
Authors: Almeida Granja Gabriel , Graciano Suxberger Antonio Henrique
Published: December 2023

O artigo tem como objetivo analisar a atual conjuntura da justiça penal negociada, com ênfase à sua conformação no ordenamento brasileiro e provável ampliação, através dos denominados acordos de culpa. A metodologia adotada foi a dedutiva se valendo de revisão bibliográfica e documental, a pesquisa seguiu o tipo jurídico-comparativo, utilizando-se dos mais recentes projetos legislativos acerca do tema. Constatou-se que a expansão da justiça negociada em matéria penal, quando obediente a um procedimento público e formalizado, que minimize a ocorrência de injustiças e estabeleça uma abrangência delimitada, mostra-se não apenas viável, como benéfica para os atores processuais e para sociedade.
Metal Oxide-Based Semiconductor as Photoanode for Photovoltaic Cells
Authors: Singh Lakshmi K.
Published: December 2023

The contributing factors to the overall improvement in photovoltaic efficiency are visible light absorption, enhanced dye absorption, rapid electron transport and minimal carrier recombination. To improve the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) capacity to harvest light focus is mostly placed on the synthesis of photoanode material. Photo anodes made of several metal oxide semiconductors, such as TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, Nb2O5, etc., have been used in DSSCs. The most suitable material for DSSC use is anatase TiO2 with a band gap of 3.2 eV that is chemically stable, non-toxic, and easily accessible. The synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles and their morphological variation are described in detail in the paper. The nanoparticles exhibit a tetragonal crystalline structure with lattice parameters a= 3.74 Å and b= 9.39 Å. The effect of sintering temperature on phase transition and on electrical properties affecting particle size and surface area is investigated and optimized. Characterization techniques including X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are employed to analyze the TiO2 nanoparticles. These techniques provide insights into the morphology and size of the coated TiO2 nanoparticles. The paper reports the effect of sintering temperature on the efficiency of the fabricated DSSCs. Additionally; it reviews recent advancements in TiO2-based nanomaterials, particularly through doping, to further enhance the efficiency of DSSCs. Overall, the study highlights the importance of optimizing the synthesis and properties of TiO2 nanoparticles for improved performance of DSSCs, and it discusses potential strategies for enhancing the efficiency of DSSCs through modifications in TiO2-based nanomaterials.

Persuasion: Theoretic Conceptual Valences
Authors: Tugarev Laura
Published: December 2023

The modern age has subordinated the whole society, imposing a model in which the individual should deliver not only content, but also form. The process of persuasion is applied daily, in everyday institutional and social contexts, etc., with the aim of convincing the other to believe, think and/or act in a certain way, to accept the “form”. The content disseminated in the public space often includes a persuasive valence, that is why is important to know the conceptual and functional aspects of persuasion, in order to be able to elaborate broad and complex analyses of media or advertising discourse. Persuasion is a complex process, through which an individual tries to influence/convince another individual or a group to adopt a certain opinion, behavior or action. The purpose of persuasion is to convince a person or a group of people, in order to change certain perceptions, attitudes, preferences, behaviors regarding a certain product, service, current, person, etc., according to their interests or desires or/and the goals of the sender, that is, the one trying to persuade. In the specialized literature, persuasion is defined as "the art of influencing positively", being used in various spheres such as: advertising, public relations, communication, marketing, politics, etc., applied both in a private setting, in an institutional one or even in the public one.
