Author

Abstract

Studies have shown that educational robotics (ER) may impact student learning, especially in relation to STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) areas. In the STEM framework, particularly for younger children, the "E" and the "T" are considered to be missing letters, because few studies have concentrated on teaching and evaluating technology and engineering through ER activities. This study aimed to develop and test the efficacy of an ER protocol to teach robotics in a sample of 389 students, hypothesizing that girls would be as successful as boys. A Robotics Questionnaire assessing the basics of robotics was developed for this study. A Wilcoxon nonparametric test was performed in order to evaluate improvements (p < 0.05). A Mann-Whitney nonparametric test was performed in order to test the presence of gender differences (p < 0.05). Data indicated significant improvements for all the age ranges considered. No gender differences were found. In order to evaluate the efficacy of a didactic intervention utilizing ER, it is important to assess the impact on children's technological and engineering (robotics, in particular) knowledge.

Abstract

Nell’ambito della « battaglia culturale », verificatasi nell’area germanica nella seconda metà dell’Ottocento, è di grande importanza il ruolo giocato della Santa Sede. A tal proposito risulta imprescindibile l’analisi dell’azione svolta dei principali organi della politica internazionale vaticana a sostegno delle gerarchie cattoliche locali. Emerge, in questo contesto, la funzione svolta dai segretari di Stato e dai membri della Congregazione degli Affari Ecclesiastici Straordinari. Nel Palazzo Apostolico vengono, infatti, affrontate le principali questioni del Kulturkampf. A quest’attività prende parte un numero considerevole di porporati tra i quali spicca Ludovico Jacobini, non solo per il suo ruolo di segretario di Stato, ma anche per la conoscenza diretta del cancelliere Bismarck, che risulta decisiva per la soluzione del conflitto.

Abstract

Les cardinaux sont connus du grand public comme des figures prestigieuses des Églises et des sociétés locales. Ils suscitent aussi l’intérêt des médias internationaux par leur rôle, majeur mais toujours mystérieux, dans l’élection du pape. Pourtant, la nature de leur charge et la réalité de leurs fonctions demeurent largement dans l’ombre. Les membres du Sacré Collège composent une élite qui ne ressemble à aucune autre : aristocratique au sens du choix des « meilleurs », et cependant non héréditaire, à fort ancrage local mais aussi très internationalisée, placée à partir des Lumières et de la Révolution face au défi de s’adapter à la modernité. Cet ouvrage est centré sur les aspects spécifiquement romains de l’activité multiforme des « porporati ». Ceux-ci sont saisis à la fois en tant que corps constitué, sede plena (consistoire) et sede vacante (conclave), qu’individuellement, comme responsables de dicastères de la Curie, acteurs majeurs de la diplomatie vaticane, mais aussi protecteurs de congrégations religieuses, dignitaires de la Cour pontificale et détenteurs d’un « titre » cardinalice symbolisant leur ancrage dans la Ville. Les vingt-cinq contributions réunies dans ce volume, accompagnées d’une bibliographie et de plusieurs index, sont le fruit d’un programme de recherches interdisciplinaires qui a rassemblé une équipe internationale d’historiens et d’historiens du droit, et qui a été conduit par l’École française de Rome, l’Institut catholique de Paris et l’Université Paris-Sud.

8. Pio XII e il mancato riconoscimento dello Stato indipendente di Croazia da parte della Santa Sede.

Author

VALENTE, MASSIMILIANO

Abstract

During the Second World War, the Holy See was faced with the complex situation in the Balkans resulting from the occupation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1941 by the German armed forces, supported by Italians, Hungarians and Bulgarians. The birth of the independent state of Croatia posed the problem of the country's recognition by the papal diplomatic bodies and so did the visit to the Vatican of President Ante PavelicÂ' and the sovereign-designate, Aimon of Savoy Aosta. Both issues were debated in the Secretariat of State and a solution was found based on case studies written by Msgr. Armando Lombardi, with references to the precedents and theories of international law at the time. Pius XII therefore opted to send an Apostolic Visitor to Zagreb, the Benedictine abbot Giuseppe Ramiro Marcone, entrusted with an on-site religious mission. PavelicÂ', on the other hand, tried, in vain, to accredit to the Vatican his unofficial representatives - first Nikola RušinovicÂ' and later Prince Erwin Lobkowicz - who were only admitted to the Apostolic Palace for the purpose of providing information on the religious situation in the Croatian State.

Abstract

Pietro Gasparri (1852–1934) was a famous jurist, a valued university professor and an able papal diplomat. He headed the Secretary of State and the Roman Curia from November 1914 to January 1930, during a crucial period in the history of Europe and of the Papacy. This book – the outcome of research seminars on “The international policy of the Holy See” held in Rome between 2013 and 2016 in collaboration with the Università europea di Roma and the Institut catholique de Paris – gathers the contributions of an international group of historians and archivists, seniors and PhD students. It focuses on Gasparri in his role as Secretary of State: a central figure of the government of the Church in the twentieth century, Pietro Gasparri (1852–1934) fu un insigne giurista, un apprezzato docente universitario e un abile diplomatico pontificio. Diresse la Segreteria di Stato e la Curia romana dal novembre 1914 al gennaio 1930, cioè in un periodo cruciale della storia europea e del papato. Il volume – frutto dei seminari di studio sulla “Politica internazionale della Santa Sede” tenuti fra il 2013 e il 2016 e organizzati in collaborazione tra l’Università europea di Roma e l’Institut catholique de Paris – presenta i contributi di un gruppo internazionale di storici e archivisti, senior e dottorandi, incentrati su Gasparri nel suo ruolo di segretario di Stato, quale figura centrale del governo della Chiesa cattolica del Novecento.
