Francesco Arcidiacono – författare

The present volume proposes different international scientific contributions coming from professionals and researchers interested in teaching, learning and social interactions within a range of various educational settings. These scientific investigations, as well as professional experiences as teachers, are interconnected because they are built around the connections between teachers, students and parents. The chapters offer a plurality of methodologies and approaches dealing with different educational aspects related to adults’ and children’s involvement in various cultures. The contributions propose a set of analyses of the relationships between school and family in risk situations and within different dialogical frames. The chapters assume specific perspectives in considering the family-school interactions and incorporate analytical reflections connected to specific situations, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the question of inclusive education. The volume intends to foster a new comprehension of the dynamics involving school actors and families. Each contribution looks at the interconnections between teachers, students and parents, in order to highlight the centrality of the role of social actors within various educational settings in which the processes of teaching and learning are developed. In this sense, schools and families are presented as communities continuously engaged in interpersonal relationships, and soliciting various processes of appropriation of cultural, semiotic, professional, and emotional resources. The volume proposes approaches that are useful to better understand how teachers, students and parents can contribute, in different and complementary ways, to build meaningful frameworks for the processes of teaching and learning.

How can pupils and students learn to interact with others? How can they interact with others to learn? How do teachers organize the various forms of interaction in a discursive dynamic within their classrooms? The different ways in which social and cultural psychology views explore school have consolidated a new image of learning processes. However, social interactions in the classroom need to be constantly re-examined and rethought. Tothis end, the contributions of this book exploit, innovates and study the multiple interactions in theclassroom and the conditions that can favor teaching and learning processes. By linking psychology, educational sciences and learning models, this book contributes to the study of the interconnected processes of individual and social development in compulsory and higher education.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of empirical studies based on various approaches devoted to examining the interpersonal argumentative processes involved in different contexts. It also identifies context-dependent similarities and differences in the ways in which argumentative interactions are managed by individuals in a range of educational and professional settings.How can some forms of negotiation, change and debate result from engaging in interpersonal processes during argumentation? How do interpersonal dimensions affect the interdependencies between argumentative exchanges and construction of knowledge and skills? The book clarifies these open questions by providing a discussion of theoretical and empirical issues at the forefront of research, in order to provide a view of how interpersonal argumentation in educational and professional contexts is actually questioned and investigated.It offers readers an opportunity to discover the crucial importance of an in-depth understanding of the role and functions played by the interpersonal dynamics within argumentative interactions occurring in a wide range of educational and professional contexts.
