Quando nella primavera del 2020 la pandemia da Covid-19 ha raggiunto il territorio italiano, il comitato scientifico del Campionato Nazionale delle Lingue ha deciso di interrompere immediatamente la manifestazione, giunta ormai alle fasi semifinali, e di rivedere completamente l’organizzazione dell’undicesima edizione, prevista per l’Anno Scolastico e Accademico 2020/21. Con l’intenzione di “mettere in pausa la competizione e in scena le competenze,” il Centro Linguistico d’Ateneo dell’Università di Urbino ha dunque deciso di non sospendere l’efficace canale di comunicazione avviato con gli istituti di istruzione secondaria e di sviluppare e promuovere la realizzazione di un progetto didattico che potesse risultare stimolante e utile per il pubblico scolastico che, in questi ultimi anni e oggi più di sempre, è costantemente alla ricerca di risorse online di qualità e di alto profilo. Come vedremo in questo saggio, porre attenzione all’analisi del contesto, lavorare in sinergia con il territorio, adottare in tempi rapidi azioni di sistema in grado di affrontare la sfida della formazione a distanza e progettare interventi mirati sono divenute priorità del CLA di Urbino che in quest’ottica ha sviluppato il Percorso per le Competenze Trasversali e l’Orientamento “Dream Big, Fly High: the English Language as a Bridge to Your Dream Job,” progetto CLIL racchiuso in nove moduli. Scopo del percorso è stato quello di aiutare gli studenti a comprendere che la lingua inglese non è altro che un tool, uno strumento, e che basta decidere di sfruttarlo al meglio, senza ansia da prestazione, per fare un grande passo in avanti verso il raggiungimento dei propri obiettivi con ottimismo, entusiasmo e sviluppando una consapevolezza che renda più forti., Iperstoria, No. 21 (2023): ICT Affordances and Higher Education: From Face-to-Face to Online Classroom-Based Activities

Nel saggio cercheremo di capire come i Disturbi Specifici di Apprendimento possano rendere complesso il processo di apprendimento e insegnamento di una lingua straniera, sia a livello di istruzione secondaria, sia a livello di formazione universitaria. Sebbene la normativa negli ultimi anni abbia fatto passi da gigante nei confronti degli studenti DSA riuscendo a favorire una didattica che possa definirsi sempre di più inclusiva, ancora oggi molto è da fare - particolarmente a livello universitario - per far sì che i ragazzi e le ragazze con questo tipo di disturbo di natura neurobiologica possano efficacemente seguire un corso di studi in lingue e culture straniere. Attraverso la realizzazione di percorsi individualizzati e personalizzati, l’Università di Urbino presenta un modello operativo innovativo e integrato in cui la gestione dei tempi, i materiali, la didattica e la valutazione riescono a valorizzare le differenze e le caratteristiche di ciascuno e a consentire un proficuo apprendimento linguistico., Linguæ & - Journal of Modern Languages and Cultures, V. 21 N. 1 (2022)

The aim of the present work was to collect information at the slaughterhouse on the relationship between carcass composition (lean meat content assessed according to the EUROP classification grid) and the quality of the raw thighs. Quality was assessed based on indicators included in the product specifications for Parma ham: trimmed weight, thickness of the fat layer (measured vertically at the head of the femur -best end-), presence of fat at the “coronet” (visually assessed), iodine number, linoleic acid content (C18:2). The research included 11 slaughter plants. In each plant, 10 slaughtering batches and about 20 raw thighs per batch were selected. All pigs assessed had a carcass weighing more than 110 kg, in agreement with the definition of heavy pig. Overall, 2126 raw thighs were evaluated. At least 25% of the selected raw thighs in each batch derived from a carcass classified as E in the EUROP grid (F-o-M classification). Out of them 32.6% were classified as E, 35.5% as U, 24.7% as R and 7.1% as O. In 6 slaughtering plants, from each slaughtering batch we collected 10 samples of subcutaneous fat (including both inner and outer fat layer), of which 5 from raw thighs belonging to the E class and 5 from raw thighs belonging to the other classes (U, R, O). In order to assess if the fat from the raw thighs classified as E is more frequently non-compliant (iodine number > 70; C18:2 > 15%) with Parma ham production rules than U-R-O thighs, iodine number analysis was carried out on the subcutaneous fat samples, while the gas chromatography analysis of fatty acid composition is presently in progress. Trimmed weight, fat thickness and iodine value were analyzed with one-way ANOVA using the EUROP grid (E vs URO) as the main effect As expected, despite the similar (P>0.48) weight of the trimmed thighs (14.525 kg for E vs. 14,486 kg for URO thighs) the thickness of the fat layer was lower (P

PURPOSE We aimed to assess the association between features of epicardial adipose tissue and demographic, morphometric and clinical data, in a large population of symptomatic patients with clinical indication to cardiac computed tomography (CT) angiography. METHODS Epicardial fat volume (EFV) and adipose CT density of 1379 patients undergoing cardiac CT angiography (918 men, 66.6%; age range, 18–93 years; median age, 64 years) were semi-automatically quantified. Clinical variables were compared between diabetic and nondiabetic patients to assess potential differences in EFV and adipose CT density. Multiple regression models were calculated to find the clinical variables with a significant association with EFV and adipose CT density. RESULTS The median EFV in diabetic patients (112.87 mL) was higher compared with nondiabetic patients (82.62 mL; P < 0.001). The explanatory model of the multivariable analysis showed the strongest associations between EFV and BMI (β=0.442) and age (β=0.365). Significant yet minor association was found with sex (β=0.203), arterial hypertension (β=0.072), active smoking (β=0.068), diabetes (β=0.068), hypercholesterolemia (β=0.046) and cardiac height (β=0.118). The mean density of epicardial adipose tissue was associated with BMI (β=0.384), age (β=0.105), smoking (β=0.088), and diabetes (β=0.085). CONCLUSION In a large population of symptomatic patients, EFV is higher in diabetic patients compared with nondiabetic patients. Clinical variables are associated with quantitative features of epicardial fat.
