It is no longer the age of good practices and certainties, of well-made projects and great ideologies but it is the age of dynamic, creative and flexible strategies. In the midst of the crisis, we have acquired at least one certainty: No one saves himself alone. Reluctantly we understand that it is not a question of being strong or weak, “winning” or “losing”, but that we exist through this existential fragility that allows us to affirm our belonging to the community. The objective of this theoretical analysis is based on the analysis of the relationship between resilience and collaborative activity based on technologies. This analysis highlights that resilient action is activated thanks to the collaboration between the actors of the exceptional event that through technology redefine environmental boundaries, generating a resilient informal context. Keywords: collaborative activity, post covid paradigm, resilient modalities, theoretical analysis.

The use of information age technology favors pervasive communication exchanges and complex phenomenologies, which affect the production of knowledge and the permanent transformation of personalities and contexts, not always with a view to prosocial empowerment of differences. From the analysis of the liquid socio–psycho–educational frames explored in the research activated at the University of Salerno, the permanent need for a widespread media education emerges, to be rooted in a lifelong learning vision to achieve systemic inclusiveness. This is the basis of the epistemology of the existential design model Flipped Inclusion, promoted and tested at the University of Salerno, whose complex idiomatic phrase constitutes the integrated and complex synthesis of the multi-perspective and multimodal approach pursued by the model. In the exploratory–descriptive–transformative research underway since 2014, through blended learning, complex blended learning and with formal, non-formal and informal contexts, the design–organizational, algorithmic–computational architecture of flipped inclusion is experimented upon. The trend of data since 2014 confirms the educational value of the model, due to the positive impact relating to inclusiveness on personal styles and social contexts, hence the intention to continue research on larger samples.

In the post-modern glocal society, with an economy of continuous training generated by a trans-human technological expansion, we are witnessing an informative consumerism and a capitalism of knowledge that produces a socio-economic co-evolution. The complex idiomatic locution flipped inclusion, introduced in the descriptive-transformative experimental research at the University of Salerno from 2014, crosses, declines, and transposes the concept of inclusion as a social construct in an ecological-systemic perspective and the logic of flipped learning in a systemic learning perspective – learning organization, learning of society, lifelong learning.

Starting from the scenarios of the knowledge economy and the Europe 2020 Strategy, the flipped inclusion model is outlined in a complex blended learning modality, within a built in trajectory that endorses the phenomenal world of virtual and real reality, highlighting the links between relational, learning and economic-cultural innovation processes. In FI, the use of multimedia technologies adopted according to a systemic logic from microto macro group processes, expanding opportunities for access to information and using multiple learning methods and environments, return an offer more articulated and extensive training that generates a synoptic view of the cognitive contents. The whole, influencing the learning, cognitive and attribution styles involved, aims to contribute to the well-being, to the maintaining and progressing humanity itself, with the aim of forming individual profiles capable of promoting communities that embody the inclusive value of differences, thus generating into a smart, sustainable and inclusive global growth engine.

The Significance of Situation Awareness in Education: Being Aware of What We Learn: 10.4018/978-1-4666-9924-3.ch025: Learning today is no longer related to the “classroom” as the physical environment; it is instead an “across spaces” place characterized by the possibility to

The ability to play action videogames – not directly related to phonological or orthographic training – seems to be a teaching tool able to intervene specifically on spatial attention and drastically improve the reading skills of dyslexic children. The MADRIGALE project aims at the design and development of an action game, simultaneously involving both phonological and attention training in order to adapt educational game strategies for special needs. Within the MADRIGALE project, the design of the prototype was presented at the International Conference on Intelligent Networking and Collaborative Systems, while an experimentation about educational effectiveness of the prototype, conducted using ‘Prove MT2’ as a benchmarking tool for measuring accuracy and speed of reading, was published in the International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET). This paper is an extension of the work presented in SIREM – SIEL 2014 Conference, and presents the results of a Game Evaluation Sheet administered to 50 primary school teachers with experience of dyslexic students

In modern society about 10% of children suffer from a neuro-developmental disorder called dyslexia, which implies difficulties in learning to read. According to recent research, playing action videogames can be a valid teaching tool to improve the reading skills of dyslexic children through forms of engagement and interaction. This paper describes the design, implementation, validation and experimentation of an educational action game oriented to promote phonological and visuo-spatial attention training in dyslexic subjects aged between 7 and 9.

This work argues how the cognitive processes involved in the orienteering peculiar activities (map reading, path finding, and spatial thinking) are also involved in the management of intersubjective relationship. In essence, the skills involved in reading maps and in developing strategies for spatial navigation are skills that allow us to see the world from different points of view, abandoning the egocentric perspective. To get out from egocentrism means being able to see the reality from several points of view, however other than our own. In this perspective, the work develops describing orienteering as a sport, and facing a review of scientific literature on the cognitive processes involved in spatial navigation and management of spatial reference systems, in light of the contribution made to this specific field studies from neuroscience. The work thus illustrates the spatial theory of empathy and concludes with a proposal for the spread of orienteering as an effective teaching practice in inclusion-oriented education contexts and as a powerful learning resource for Special Educational Needs.
