«NON È COI GESTI»: L’EDUCAZIONE ALLA LETTO-SCRITTURA PER I SORDOMUTI NEI SILLABARI DELL’OTTOCENTO

Nell’articolo vengono analizzati i principali sillabari destinati all’educazione dei sordomuti nel periodo postunitario: nella prima parte si presentano i dati relativi ai sussidi utilizzati negli Istituti italiani secondo l’inchiesta statistica realizzata nel 1880, in vista del Congresso di Milano; si esamina poi più nel dettaglio il sillabario più adottato, quello di Giovanni Nicolussi, mettendo in relazione la Guida pel maestro con gli Atti del Congresso di Siena del 1873, portando in evidenza in particolare il contrasto tra alcune posizioni di Nicolussi e di Giulio Tarra; in conclusione, si presenta una breve panoramica di altri sillabari destinati all’insegnamento dei sordomuti e di metodi nati per l’istruzione dei sordomuti estesi a quella degli udenti.   “Not with signs”: primers for the education of the deaf and dumb in the 19th century This article illustrates the most important primers for the education of the deaf and dumb during the post-unitarian period: the first part presents data regarding the textbooks used in Italian Institutes according to the statistical survey carried out in 1880 for the Congress of Milan; afterwards, the primer by Giovanni Nicolussi is examined in-depth, and the Guida pel maestro is compared with the Congress Proceedings of Siena (1873), highlighting some contrasts between Nicolussi and Giulio Tarra; finally, there is an overview of other primers for the education of deaf-mutes as well as methods developed for the education of deaf-mutes extended to other students

«Gli auttori dal cui fonte il ruscelletto di questa mia grammatica si derriva»

Cet article examine l’exemplification dans les grammaires du vulgaire italien du XVIe siècle, avec une attention particulière portée à la dimension éducative. Fortunio, avec les Regole, inaugure la tradition de la grammaire italienne qui fonde la norme sur l’autorité des « trois couronnes » ; dans le Compendio, dédié à un jeune homme qui doit apprendre la langue, Flaminio limite considérablement les exemples; parmi les abrégés et les grammaires inspirées par les Prose de Bembo, on peut distinguer de simples « riduzioni a metodo » d’œuvres moins dépendantes du modèle, fondées sur le principe que les auteurs doivent être lus avec discernement; dans la grammaire de Giambullari se trouvent aussi des exempla ficta ; le canon s’étendra au milieu du siècle. C’est sur la base des exemples littéraires que les grammairiens fondent leurs règles ; dans une perspective d’enseignement, les exemples des auteurs constituent un moyen d’apprentissage et représentent un modèle concret pour l’écriture.This article is a discussion of examples in Italian vernacular grammars in the 16th century, with a particular focus on their educational perspective. The tradition of the Italian grammar whose rules were based on the authority of the “Three Crowns” originated in Fortunio’s Regole; in the Compendio, which was dedicated to a young man who must learn the language, Flaminio cuts down on examples; among the compendia and the grammars inspired by the Prose of Bembo, some are simple “riduzioni a metodo”, others are works more independent of their model, based on the principle that authors should be read “con giudicio”(with discernment); in Giambullari’s grammar we can also find exempla ficta; the canon would widen in the second half of the century. Grammarians based their rules on literary examples and, from teaching perspective, authors’ examples both constitute a means of learning and offer concrete models of writing

«UN GUAZZABUGLIO DI COSE DIVERSE». LA CLASSIFICAZIONE DEI COMPLEMENTI NELLE GRAMMATICHE POSTUNITARIE

L’articolo intende avviare uno studio sulla categoria di complemento nelle grammatiche scolastiche postunitarie. Sono state innanzitutto ripercorse le annotazioni relative all’analisi della frase semplice contenute nei programmi scolastici e nei documenti ministeriali della seconda metà dell’Ottocento, che concordano nel condannare il ricorso a definizioni e classificazioni troppo rigide e mnemoniche, ma che sono spesso disattese; la seconda parte analizza più nel dettaglio la grammatica di Luigi Morandi e Giulio Cappuccini (1894), che consente anche di confrontare le due edizioni pensate per i diversi ordini di scuola.   «A bunch of different things». The classification of objects in post-Unitarian grammar books The purpose of the article is to study the category of objects in scholastic Italian grammars from the post-Unitarian period. Initial focus is on the analysis of simple sentences contained in school programs and in ministerial papers from the second half of the 19th century, which agree in condemning the use of overly rigid, mnemonic definitions and taxonomies, but which were often disregarded. The second part centers on the grammar book by Luigi Morandi and Giulio Cappuccini (1894), including comparison between the two editions published for primary and secondary schools

Real-time smart multisensing wearable platform for monitoring sweat biomarkers during exercise

Sweat secreted by the human eccrine sweat glands can provide valuable biomarker information during exercise in hot and humid conditions. Real-time noninvasive biomarker recordings are therefore useful for evaluating the physiological conditions of an athlete such as their hydration status during endurance exercise. In this work, we describe a platform that in- cludes different sweat biomonitoring prototypes of cost-effective, smart wearable devices for continuous biomonitoring of sweat during exercise. One prototype is based on conformable and disposable soft sensing patches with an integrated multi-sensor array requiring the integration of different sensors and printed sensors with their corresponding functionalization protocols on the same substrate. The second is based on silicon based sensors and paper microfluidics. Both platforms integrate a multi-sensor array for measuring sodium, potassium, and pH in sweat. We show preliminary results obtained from the multi-sensor prototypes placed on two athletes during exercise. We also show that the machine learning algorithms can predict the percentage of body weight loss during exercise from biomarkers such as heart rate and sweat sodium concentration collected over multiple subjects

Multisensing wearables for real-time monitoring of sweat electrolyte biomarkers during exercise and analysis on their correlation with core body temperature

Sweat secreted by the human eccrine sweat glands can provide valuable biomarker information during exercise. Real-time non-invasive biomarker recordings are therefore useful for evaluating the physiological conditions of an athlete such as their hydration status during endurance exercise. This work describes a wearable sweat biomonitoring patch incorporating printed electrochemical sensors into a plastic microfluidic sweat collector and data analysis that shows the real-time recorded sweat biomarkers can be used to predict a physiological biomarker. The system was placed on subjects carrying out an hour-long exercise session and results were compared to a wearable system using potentiometric robust silicon-based sensors and to commercially available HORIBA-LAQUAtwin devices. Both prototypes were applied to the real-time monitoring of sweat during cycling sessions and showed stable readings for around an hour. Analysis of the sweat biomarkers collected from the printed patch prototype shows that their real-time measurements correlate well (correlation coefficient ≥0.65 ) with other physiological biomarkers such as heart rate and regional sweat rate collected in the same session. We show for the first time, that the real-time sweat sodium and potassium concentration biomarker measurements from the printed sensors can be used to predict the core body temperature with root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.02 °C which is 71% lower compared to the use of only the physiological biomarkers. These results show that these wearable patch technologies are promising for real-time portable sweat monitoring analytical platforms, especially for athletes performing endurance exercise
