Friendly Facts: program to help children explore the complexities of friendship
For children with ASD, making and keeping friends is often not a simple process. These children need to be intentionally taught in developmentally appropriate, respectful and supportive environments how to be a friend and how to make and keep friends. This presentation focuses on children ages 7-11, a period when friendships become increasingly complex and a lack of peer acceptance is all the more obvious and challenging. Through a variety of educational activities that appeal to different learning styles, children are scaffolded in their learning about making and keeping friends

Creative ways to promote cognitive thinking
Children with ASD often experience negative self-talk. The starting point of stopping such negative dialogues inside your head is to be aware of it, challenge it, and replace it with helpful thinking. The objective of this session is to portray Cool Comics as a vehicle that assists children in recognising negative self talk. By working through the comic scenarios, children develop an awareness of negative self-talk and practice replacing it with more positive self-talk
I diritti degli stranieri al tempo del “decreto sicurezza” e le “ombre” della giustizia costituzionale. Osservazioni a margine della sentenza n. 194/2019
Il saggio si propone di indagare se la Corte costituzionale nella sent. n. 194/2019, non consentendo il vaglio di ammissibilità di cinque ricorsi regionali che impugnavano alcune disposizioni del decreto legge n. 113/2018, abbia alimentato la presenza di “zone d’ombra” e “zone franche” nella tutela giurisdizionale dei diritti. Al fine di rispondere a tale interrogativo, in primo luogo, vengono esaminati i profili maggiormente criticati dalla dottrina del cosiddetto Decreto sicurezza poiché potenzialmente lesivi di diritti degli stranieri costituzionalmente garantiti, ma non giudicati nel merito dalla Corte. In secondo luogo, tenendo in considerazione il caso di specie, sono sviluppate alcune riflessioni inerenti ai limiti del giudizio in via principale quando vengono sollevate questioni che attengono ai diritti fondamentali e, quindi, si riferiscono soprattutto a parametri extra- competenziali. A questo riguardo, il contributo approfondisce, in particolare, la posizione di svantaggio delle Regioni rispetto allo Stato e accenna alle alternative avanzate dagli studiosi per un superamento di simili malfunzionamenti della giustizia costituzionale italiana
On federated single sign-on in e-government interoperability frameworks
We consider the problem of handling digital identities within serviceoriented architecture (SOA) architectures. We explore federated, single signon (SSO) solutions based on identity managers and service providers. After an overview of the different standards and protocols, we introduce a middlewarebased architecture to simplify the integration of legacy systems within such platforms. Our solution is based on a middleware module that decouples the legacy system from the identity-management modules.We consider both standard point-to-point service architectures, and complex government interoperability frameworks, and report experiments to show that our solution provides clear advantages both in terms of effectiveness and performance
Sicurezza e frontiere. Le politiche migratorie nell’emergenza europea e italiana
L’intento del contributo è esplorare l’impatto delle accresciute istanze securitarie derivanti da situazioni emergenziali sulla disciplina delle frontiere, con particolare riferimento alle ripercussioni sui diritti dei migranti e dei richiedenti asilo. A tal fine, la questione sarà analizzata in considerazione della “crisi migratoria europea” e, soprattutto, dell’emergenza pandemica da Covid-19, prestando maggiore attenzione all’esperienza dell’Italia
