The First Web Application to Implement the Home-To-School Mobility Plan Powered By The first web application to implement the Home-To-School Mobility Plan Powered by MOVESION S.r.l. Via Ruggero Bonghi, 11b 00184 Rome (RM) - ITALY T +39 06 622 736 06 E [email protected] W movesion.com CONTEXT The school Mobility of the students and of those who drive them to school represents one of the major problems relating to traffic con- gestion and urban mobility: traffic nearby schools, the parents who double park and too little safety related to high-school students mobility, who ride their moped every morning to get to school. Today we need to find alternative, more sustainable and bet- ter-organized solutions in order to avoid all that. SOLUTION The Home-To-School Mobility Plan Through a careful study of the causes generating this problem, we can solve it by using the Home-To-School Mobility Plan, which provides a detailed analysis of the mobility habits of the students, teachers and parents. TOOL MobilitySchool MobilitySchool is a software developed by Movesion to imple- ment the Home-To-School Mobility Plan. By filling in a briefquestionnaire , available also on smartphones and tablets, MobilitySchool provides a detailed picture of mo- bility habits of students, teachers and parents: their departure point, their destination, where they park, the pollution level, their needs and their ability to switch to other and more sus- tainable mobility solutions. HOW IT WORKS The procedure It sends a brief questionnaire, to fill in online, to all users. It produces a report with the results of the survey, also in Excel format, containing more than 60 mobility indicators. It plans intervention scenarios by using a simulation model integrated in the software. It automatically calculates the emissions for six different kinds of pollutants and shows geographically the results. BENEFITS The features Complete: it analyses the various aspects of school mobility (car parks, school buses, public transport, subsidies, carpooling, cycling mobility, etc.) Flexible: it can be customized according to specific needs and features of the surrounding environment. It is possible to inter- act with the questionnaire, the maps and much more. Easy: it performs one-month work in a few seconds, saving school resources and time. Smart: it suggests the most successful interventions for the problems of your school. PLANNING Suggestions Besides analysing the problem, it is also essential to understand how to solve it through adequate intervention measures. MobilitySchool can do it, thanks to its integrated computational tools. A powerful algorithm, developed and optimized during the years thanks to studies and researches in the field of schools’ mobility, gives, at the end of the investigation, a list of interven- tions that are applicable in the examined reality, sorting them depending on the effectiveness forecasted in the specific case. APP Use Appedibus With MobilitySchool, there is also an App to: Plan the routes. Organize the turns of the voluntary parents. Geolocate the children on their way to and back from school. Send alerts and news to parents who are at home. The values MobilitySchool is an efficient tool to find and solve all mobili- ty-related problems and it has been created to actively involve headmasters, teachers, students and parents in this process. One of the soundest and most interesting aspects of Mobili- tySchool is the message for younger generations: making the world more sustainable is possible by making easy choices. Becoming aware of this idea since childhood is a huge invest- ment for the future, both for children and for our community. Our customers “A.

By feminization, this dissertation refers both to the gradual assumption of the majority of elementary teaching positions by women and to a transformation in the nature of the position itself. Through an examination of educational periodicals, school records, government inquests, and accounts by teachers and pedagogical theorists, it argues that rather than the unintended consequence of economic constraints or shifting labor patterns, feminization was fundamentally connected to larger processes of centralization and modernization in the Italian school system. Following an introductory chapter outlining the major national, religious, and gender debates of ii the Unification era, the second chapter of the dissertation argues that the figure of the female elementary teacher became embroiled in the contest between local and national interests, furthering the drive toward centralization.

  • The Sonzogno Affair (1875) and the Print Networks in Liberal Italy1
    Making News: the Sonzogno Affair (1875) and the Print Networks in Liberal Italy1 Silvia Valisa “non sappiamo, se un giorno la storia e la cronaca ricorderanno il fatto della morte di Raffaele Sonzogno, e di chi lo uccise.”2 On September 20, 1870, Milanese patriot Raffaele Sonzogno walked through the Breccia di Porta Pia into Rome. That day, the troops of the Kingdom of Italy had succeeded in breaching the walls of the city, and Italy at last recovered its long-dreamed-of capital. According to Risorgimento lore, as he walked on the rubble Sonzogno was not holding a rifle, or a flag, like the other patriots: he was carrying rather a small printing workshop.3 With it, the following day he proceeded to publish La capitale, the first Rome-based national newspaper. “Of medium height [...] and shortsighted,” as author Roberto Mazzucco describes him in a historical novel inspired by his fate, Raffaele was an outspoken voice of the Italian democrats and one of the heirs to the Sonzogno printing dynasty.4 It is the irony of Raffaele’s destiny that, although he died many years before his influential brother Edoardo, who developed the most important publishing trust in nineteenth–century Italy, we know so much more about Raffaele’s private and public life than we will ever know about Edoardo. This is because only five years after the foundation of La capitale, on the evening of Saturday February 6, 1875, Raffaele Sonzogno was attacked and murdered at the headquarters of his newspaper, located in Via Cesarini 77. The homicide, first investigated as a random act then as a crime related to matters of adultery, soon turned out to be also professionally motivated, and related to Sonzogno’s public friendships, enmities, and to some of the most important political debates of its time.

Bennett, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ________________________________________ Michael Carter, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ________________________________________ William L. Portier, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ________________________________________ F. Russell Hittinger, Ph.D. Outside Faculty Reader ii ABSTRACT THE ANALOGIA COMMUNITATIS: LEO XIII AND THE MODERN QUEST FOR FRATERNITY Name: Heron, Jason Andrew University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Kelly Johnson This dissertation examines the social magisterium of Pope Leo XIII as it is developed in the aftermath of the French Revolution and during the nationalizing process of the liberal Italian state. The thesis of the dissertation is that Leo XIII provides Catholic social teaching with a proper vision of human relationship as a mode of analogical participation in the Lord’s goodness. In his own historical context, Leo’s analogical vision of social relations is developed in tension with the nation-state’s proposal of political citizenship as the social relation that relativizes every other relation – most especially one’s ecclesial relation. In our own context, Leo’s analogical vision of social relations stands in tension with the late-modern proposal of consumerism as the social reality that relativizes every other relation – including one’s matrimonial, familial, social, and ecclesial relations.

    Notes Introduction 1. A. Niceforo, L’Italia barbara contemporanea (Studi ed appunti) (Sandron, Milan-Palermo, 1898), p. 247. 2. The sentence is quoted in G. Bocca, L’inferno. Profondo sud, male oscuro (Milan, Mondadori, 1992), p. 28. 3. The texts I have chiefly in mind in writing this introduction are: M. L. Sal- vadori, “L’interpretazione razzistica della inferiorità meridionale,” in Il mito del buongoverno. La questione meridionale da Cavour a Gramsci (Turin, Ein- audi, 1963), pp. 184–205; M. W.

Galasso, “Lo stereotipo del napoletano e le sue variazioni regionali,” in L’altra Europa. Per un’antropologia storica del Mezzogiorno d’Italia (Milan, Mondadori, 1982), pp. 143–190; V. Teti, La razza maledetta. Origini del pregiudizio antimerid- ionale (Rome, Manifestolibri, 1993). More detailed references to these works are made at appropriate points below. 4. Perhaps because of this, the concept of regionalism has a muddled history in the peninsula. For some interesting reflections on the idea of the region in Italian history, see: L.

  • The Day They Shut Down the Oratory School
    The Day They Shut Down the Oratory School Michael Ribotta, SOB On June 30, 1879, after numerous attempts to stave off the inevitable, Don Bosco was finally compelled to shut down his oratory school in Valdocco. As a consequence more than 300 boys began an unexpected and prolonged vacation. But for Don Bosco it was anything but a restful respite. For him the "Until we have wiped out the clergy's influence in the education of youth, Italy can have no hopes of achieving any kind of moral regeneration or restoration." Ruggiero Bonghi, Italy's Minister of Public Instruction, 1875 school's closure was the beginning of an ordeal that would last almost eighteen months. What he had struggled so long to achieve and so hard to consolidate­ his cherished oratory school-was now on the verge of extinction.
