The research entitled "The Comparison of Factors Affecting the Success of State Higher Education Institutions in Thailand" aimed at 1) studying the confidence, leadership, and success factors of the state higher education institutions in Thailand; 2) finding the correlation coefficient between the confidence and leadership factors and the success of the state higher education institutions in Thailand; and 3) comparing the success factors of the state higher education institutions in Thailand in different categories of personal information, which were gender, age, status, education level, work experiences, and the university where the teachers worked. The sample group included 1,100 university teachers. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the general data of the respondents. The hypotheses were tested and analyzed using the t-test and one-way ANOVA analysis. The obtained data were then complexly compared using the Sheffé method and further calculated with the Pearson Correlation to find their correlation coefficient values. Such statistical analyses were completely performed on the SPSS program. The research findings were shown below: 1. The university teachers agreed with the confidence, leadership, and success factors of the state higher education institutions in Thailand at the high level. 2. Leadership and confidence also had a positive correlation with the success of the state higher education institutions in Thailand. 3. The comparative results of the success of the state higher education institutions when considering the personal information, including gender, age, education level, work experiences, academic positions, and monthly income, were not different, except in the category of the university where the teachers worked, the finding suggested a significant difference at the 0.05 probability level. ; การวิจัยเรื่อง "การเปรียบเทียบปัจจัยที่มีผลต่อความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทย" มีวัตถุประสงค์เพื่อศึกษา 1) ปัจจัยความเชื่อมั่น ภาวะผู้นำและความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทย 2) ความสัมพันธ์ของปัจจัยความเชื่อมั่น ภาวะผู้นำที่มี ต่อความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทย และ 3) เปรียบเทียบปัจจัยความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทย จำแนกตามปัจจัยส่วนบุคคล ได้แก่ เพศ อายุ สถานภาพ ระดับการศึกษา ประสบการณ์การทำงาน และมหาวิทยาลัยที่สังกัดของคณาจารย์ โดยมีกลุ่มตัวอย่างเป็นคณาจารย์ทั้งหมด จำนวน 1,100 ตัวอย่าง วิเคราะห์ข้อมูลทั่วไปของผู้ตอบแบบสอบถามด้วยสถิติบรรยายทดสอบสมมุติฐานโดยใช้ t-test และวิเคราะห์ความแปรปรวนทางเดียว (One-Way ANOVA) ทำการเปรียบเทียบเชิงซ้อน ด้วยวิธีSheffé และทดสอบความสัมพันธ์ด้วยค่าสัมประสิทธิ์สหสัมพันธ์เพียร์สัน(Pearson Correlation)โดยใช้โปรแกรมspss ผลการวิจัยสรุปได้ดังนี้ 1. คณาจารย์มีความคิดเห็นด้านภาวะผู้นำ ความเชื่อมั่น และความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทยอยู่ในระดับมาก 2. ภาวะผู้นำและความเชื่อมั่นมีความสัมพันธ์เชิงบวกกับความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐในประเทศไทย 3. ผลการเปรียบเทียบความสำเร็จของสถาบันอุดมศึกษาของรัฐด้านเพศ อายุ ระดับการศึกษา ประสบการณ์การทำงาน ตำแหน่งทางวิชาการ รายได้ต่อเดือน พบว่า ไม่แตกต่างกัน ยกเว้นด้านมหาวิทยาลัยที่สังกัดของคณาจารย์ พบว่า มีความแตกต่างกันอย่างมีนัยสำคัญทางสถิติที่ระดับ 0.05
The empirical analysis of the effects of government policies on the incentives of economic agents is the leitmotif of the present thesis, with two distinct fields of application. While the first essay mostly contributes to the empirical banking literature, with a focus on the link between implicit guarantees for bank debt and political connections in Europe, the second one contributes to the field of education economics and is devoted to an analysis of the effects of bibliometric-based hiring and promotion schemes in Italian public universities on scholars' productivity. The two essays also share some methodological affinities. First, the two projects exploit two different identification strategies that have the common ambition of isolating and estimating a causal effect of public policies on the outcomes of interest. Second, the two works are characterized by the use of two original datasets, that have been obtained merging multiple sources of data, some of them pre-existing and others that have been hand-collected. Finally, the two essays share the novelty of the research questions they aim to answer, which are relatively unexplored by the existing literature.
Negli ultimi venti anni la formazione dei docenti di lingua inglese è stata messa alla prova dai nuovi scenari derivanti da fattori quali: il crescente numero di classi multilingui e multiculturali, la diffusa esposizione alle varietà dell'inglese tramite i prodotti multimediali, l'uso emergente dell'inglese come lingua franca (ELF) nella comunicazione interculturale, così come il nuovo riconosciuto ruolo degli insegnanti e dei formatori non-nativi in contesti istituzionali. Questioni di identità, standard, livelli di competenza, comunicazione interculturale e rilevanza linguistica sia per gli apprendenti sia per i docenti, richiedono un orientamento paradigmatico e una seria riconsiderazione del curricolo di inglese, della formazione dei docenti di lingua, delle politiche linguistiche così come della ricerca e delle pratiche didattiche. Nuovi modi di formulare esempi, modelli, e azioni in termini di obiettivi educativi e di attività di consapevolezza linguistica richiedono un'analisi più attenta dei dati linguistici al fine di sollecitare la riflessione dei docenti, svelare e provocare le convinzioni esistenti sulla lingua e sulla competenza linguistico-comunicativa. Questo capitolo illustra come due gruppi di docenti italiani di inglese partecipanti a due corsi di formazione condotti da un formatore non nativo, sono stati introdotti ad ELF tramite l'esposizione, l'analisi e l'uso di campioni linguistici e con attività di consapevolezza linguistica e di noticing. English language teacher education has been challenged in the last two decades by new scenarios deriving from factors such as: the growing number of multilingual and multicultural classrooms, the widespread exposure through multimedia to varieties of Englishes, the emerging use of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) in intercultural communication as well as the acknowledged new role of non-native teachers and teacher-trainers in institutional contexts. Issues of identity, standards, proficiency levels, intercultural communication and language relevance for both learners and teachers demand for a paradigmatic orientation and for a serious reconsideration of the English curriculum, of language teacher education, of language policies as well as of research and practice. New ways in devising patterns, models and actions in terms of educational aims and of language awareness activities require a closer investigation of language data in order to elicit teachers' reflection, unveil and challenge existing beliefs about language and about language communicative competence. This contribution illustrates how two groups of Italian English language teachers respectively participating in pre- and in-service teacher education courses led by a non-native teacher trainer have been introduced to ELF through exposure, analysis and use of ELF language samples via language awareness and noticing activities.
This paper aims to reflect on the relationship between global and interculturaleducation. According to the "Global Education Charter" of the EuropeanCouncil, Global Education can be defined as the possibility/ability toeducate people to participate during their lives actively and responsibly inbuilding a global future in peace, in realizing an intercultural dialogue, insupporting education to beauty, and to the protection and preservation ofthe environment and of all living species. It means that Global Education isboth a theoretic perspective wider than "simple" intercultural education,and more directly connected with a global sensibility and with a deeperknowledge of planetary problems like migrations, wars, famine, structuralviolence, climatic change, ecologic disasters, human rights. It also implies atrue interdisciplinary approach which is really able to connect educationtheories to anthropological, sociological, political and epistemologicalmodels. ; Questo scritto intende riflettere sui rapporti tra la Global Education e lapedagogia interculturale. Partendo dalla "Global Education Charter" elaboratadal Consiglio Europeo, la Global Education può essere definite come lacapacità di educare le persone nel corso della loro vita a partecipare attivamentee responsabilmente alla costruzione di un futuro planetario all'insegnadella pace, del dialogo interculturale, dell'educazione al bello, dellatutela e della salvaguardia dell'ambiente e di tutte le specie viventi. Daquesto punto di vista è necessario sviluppare una sensibilità e unaconoscenza verso tematiche di ordine planetario – le migrazioni, le guerre,la fame, la povertà, la violenza strutturale, i disastri ambientali, il cambiamentoclimatico, i diritti umani, la democrazia – utilizzando una prospettivainterdisciplinare, capace di evidenziare fattori cruciali nella teorizzazionedella pedagogia: antropologico-formativi, socio-politici, epistemologico-culturali.
L'importanza del saper progettare si coniuga con la proposta di una centratura sui territori, nell'ambito dei quali i soggetti destinatari non sono più da considerarsi meri recettori di interventi progettati a monte, ma protagonisti attivi degli stessi. L'educatore, in siffatto frangente, assume un ruolo eminentemente politico e adotta l'idea-guida dell'animazione socio-culturale, così da connettere il piano della progettualità con quello della progettazione vera e propria. Si offrono, infine, delle analisi inerenti ai contenuti core della classe delle lauree L-19, individuati, a livello nazionale, attraverso il progetto di ricerca Teco-D Pedagogia; delle piste di ricerca e delle linee di contaminazione attuativa fra i teorici e i pratici; alcune proposte contenutistiche relative al percorso di formazione degli educatori di nido e socio-pedagogici in ordine al tema ineludibile, e talora trascurato, della progettazione educativa. ; The importance of knowing how to design is constantly and inevitably experienced in the concreteness of the territories. In the social field, the recipients are no longer to be considered mere receptors of interventions planned upstream, but active protagonists. In this situation, the educator assumes an eminently political role and adopts the socio-cultural animation framework, connecting individual projectuality and community planning. Finally, the article presents an analysis of the core contents of the degrees class L-19, identified, at the national level, through the research project Teco-D Pedagogia; some research paths and lines of contamination and implementation between researchers and professionals; various content proposals related to the training path of kindergarten and socio-pedagogical educators in order to the unavoidable, and sometimes neglected, theme of educational planning.
This paper aims to present some of the intermediate results of a PhD research on "Teaching Citizenship and the Italian Constitution in a Community of Democratic Practice" which is taking place at the University of Tourin (Department of Educational Sciences). The research has been structured as a research-training, that is a way for the in-service teachers' training, according to the Decree n. 797/2016. It has been carried out with three groups of upper secondary education teachers in a Piemonte area. It has produced a useful scheme for programming for citizenship skills, a reflection on the importance of the relational climate among teachers and on the features of the school environment that are required to be a Community of democratic Practice.
In order to answer the call of Agenda 2030 (UN, 2015), higher education must assist in giving form to a new society in which democracy is cultivated in both the minds and practices of our society. A democratic education is the answer to the challenges of contemporary society, which is characterized by indifference and an unwillingness to engage for the common good. Educational practices are often aligned to this trend so that they are planned with the aim of developing competences useful for individual success and the economic improvement of society. It is necessary to envision a new design for higher education that promotes in people the disposition to engage in the construction of a society where everyone has an equal opportunity to live a good and fulfilling life. Useful for this purpose can be a rediscovery of the classical position of Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle that present virtue and ethics as a theoretical framework for education. This framework can be used as a foundation upon which to renew academic practices by planning and designing experiences able to translate theory into actions. Service learning is an interesting model that would allow for this and would guide practices that support a democratic education informed by virtue and ethics. If useful for redirecting higher education, service learning is particularly suitable for educating teachers, the practitioners who have a great responsibility for transforming society through education. In this paper, after developing the appropriate theoretical framework, we present, as an example of service learning, the Community Research Service Learning experience carried out at the University of Verona in the Primary Teacher Education master's degree program.
