“…Gli studenti interni ed esterni registrati visualizzano lo stesso materiale di quelli di Stanford. Il corso vuole assomigliare a un ciclo di lezioni in aula 96 , con i contenuti forniti attraverso video online, divisi in sessioni di 8-10 minuti. La valutazione avviene attraverso quiz incorporati nella LMS.…”

La cosiddetta ‘rivoluzione digitale’ e le trasformazioni economiche e sociali degli ultimi decenni hanno coinvolto anche la formazione universitaria, imponendo un adeguamento di alcuni aspetti della didattica tradizionale in presenza, ma anche l’avvio di vari progetti di didattica online. Un aspetto recente di questo processo, avviato da istituzioni universitarie nordamericane, come ad esempio Stanford, Harvard e Massachusetts Institute of Technology, è rappresentato dall’offerta a livello mondiale dei Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), che non hanno limiti nel numero dei partecipanti e non prevedono l’iscrizione vincolante e onerosa. Lo studio esamina, utilizzando la letteratura internazionale sull’argomento, le origini e l’evoluzione di questo nuovo sistema di fare didattica universitaria.

“…Consistent with the needs emerging from the research undertaken on the C-ORAL corpora, L-AcT went beyond this opposition and adopted a rich set of new information units known as the Information Pattern Theory (CRESTI, 1994;MONEGLIA;CRESTI, 2006;MONEGLIA, 2010;PANUNZI;RASO, 2011).…”

Resumo: Este tem por objetivo apresentar uma descrição preliminar da unidade informacional de Parentético (PAR), baseada no corpus C-ORAL-BRASIL (RASO; MELLO, 2012), representativo da fala informal da variedade mineira do português brasileiro, e embasada na Language into Act Theory (L-AcT; CRESTI, 2000). Foram pesquisadas as principais características prosódicas (duração, frequência fundamental, intensidade) e morfossintáticas (núcleos sintáticos, preenchedores mais frequentes), bem como características funcionais (metanarrativos, metalinguísticos e modais) e distribucionais (posição dentro do enunciado) desta específica unidade informacional. Nossos resultados sugerem que exista uma distinção funcional entre PAR curto vs. longo. Além disso, a unidade informacional de PAR parece, por vezes, carregar força ilocucionária.Palavras-chave: Fala espontânea. Parentético. Português brasileiro. C-ORAL-BRASIL.Abstract: This paper aims at presenting a preliminary description of the informational unit of Parenthesis (PAR), based on the corpus C-ORAL-BRASIL (RASO; MELLO, 2012), representative of the informal speech of the Minas Gerais’s variety of Brazilian Portuguese, and underpinned on the Language into Act Theory (L-AcT; CRESTI, 2000). The main prosodic (length, fundamental frequency and intensity) and morphosyntactic (head types and most frequent fillers) characteristics, as well as functional (metanarrative, metalinguistic, and modal) and distributional (position within the utterance) characteristics were surveyed for this specific information unit. Our results suggest that a distinction between short and long PAR exist. Also, the information unit of PAR seems at times to carry illocutionary force.Keywords: Spontaneous speech. Parenthesis. Brazilian Portuguese. C-ORAL-BRASIL.

“…Further corroboration of this claim is found in a study carried out by the IMAGACT project (cf. Moneglia & Panunzi, 2010, and footnote 16), which compared the frequency of verbs with and without the component manner , in their terminology verbi di attività and verbi generali respectively, in a corpus of spoken Italian of about 1.3 million words. The scholars found that the ‘general’ verbs, those without the manner component, were about twice as frequent regarding types and almost three times as frequent regarding tokens.…”

“…The project IMAGACT, based at three Tuscan Universities, has produced a large-scale cross-linguistic ontology of action with the identification of more than 1,000 high-frequency action concepts and the definition of correspondences between verbs and actions in Italian, English, Chinese, and two varieties of Spanish. Cf., e.g., Moneglia and Panunzi (2010), Moneglia, Gagliardi, Gregori, Panunzi, Paladini, and Williams (2012), Moneglia, Monachini, Calabrese, Panunzi, Frontini, Gagliardi & Russo (2012), and the project’s web site: <>.…”

This paper presents the so-called Endo- and Exocentric Verb Typology advanced by the Danish research group TYPOlex. The typology is partly based on Talmy’s lexicalization patterns for motion verbs with some elaboration and refinement of the manner–path distinction, and it is generalized to comprise Germanic and Romance verbs (and nouns) as a whole. The Danish findings point to a relatively high lexical precision and concreteness in Germanic verbs (and Romance nouns) and a relatively high lexical abstractness and genericity in Romance verbs (and Germanic nouns). Furthermore, the paper investigates Talmy’s two semantic components ground and figure and argues that they are far more generalized in Romance (secondary) lexicalization patterns – parasynthetic derivation – than normally assumed.
