Difference Between Sony Lens And Carl Zeiss Lens

Gian Antonio Stella: even the great journalists sometimes take corners!

D'estate, si sa, c'è caldo, a volte ci si lascia andare al gozzovoglio e la mente non è lucida come nel resto dell'anno.
Mi piace pensare che Gian Antonio Stella, giornalista di punta del Corriere della Sera, che io stimo moltissimo, si sia lasciato andare a tavola (del resto la sua fisionomia lascia pensare che sia una buona forchetta) prima di scrivere l'articolo intitolato " La fabbrica delle cattedre al Sud con i «furbetti del sostegnino» " (già il titolo non mi sembra azzeccatissimo).
Tutto parte da un "dossier" di Tuttoscola nel quale si sottolinea un "anomalo" aumento degli studenti portatori di Handicap.
Secondo This dossier "In the school year 2009-10 students with disabilities included in state schools of all levels have exceeded 181 000 units (2.3% of the student population), an increase of more than 5000 compared to 'previous year.

shame that would be enough to engage in a search for those that also the nephew of eleven GA star (do not know if it has one) could do to find that within the European Union the percentage of disabled people is evaluated (source EDF, European Disability Forum) between 10 and 15%, then , as well as his grandson can understand, well above that 2.3% of the student population highlighted in the "dossier".

Then (the fault of the white ice?) A digression on the law 104 "in the interests of employees who have disability above a certain limit or have to take responsibility for a disabled relative, said to have precedence in ranking for a place closer to home, "according to Gian (I will call it that) cunningly used by too many: just, but that has to do with the manufacture of chairs?

heats our reading the "hot" dossier "in 1995-96, with a total school population higher than today, students with disabilities were 108 000. In fifteen years they have increased by almost 70%. Teachers support, which in that year were 35 000, have now become more than 90 000.
the percentage of disabled students on the school population have mentioned, this happens because "outrageous" increase support teachers? If
GA Stella had done his job better (which it normally does, but you know ... the summer ...) would have known that until a few years ago (before it was to cut the Gelmini like crazy ) principals were forced to give support to the chairs of the non-specialist teachers would suggest that even those who are not shiny, a lack qualified personnel.

"the law says that for every 100 teachers, 70 support should be stable but this percentage rises to 89% in Campania and Sardinia, and falls to 56% in Lombardy and Veneto, rears up to 91% in Basilicata and falls to 55% in Emilia Romagna. Why so abysmal differences? "
Come on, an effort before pennica will not be that many teachers in the south moved north and then not to die precarious want to go home?

"explains the issues which the post of teacher support is actually a shortcut, especially in these lean times and reduction of staff, to win the chair for life. Suffice it to say that "a teacher of 10 000 places for new entries role in 2010-11, over half (5022) are places of support." Places that after 5 years, once earned the assumption, we can give to "pass the traditional teaching '."
So, dear Gian (now we are in confidence and then I took a frozen whitebait I) the solution to this problem which would it be? Remove the support teacher for disabled children (perhaps only those in the south) or set of rules that prevent those who make the smart (but not for work) to achieve its purpose?
No, our friend reassures us, "Let me be clear: it is good che i ragazzi più sfortunati vengano aiutati."
No, non sono loro il vero obiettivo del Gian:
"Ma come si diventa insegnanti di sostegno? Penserete: chissà quanti studi! No: basta frequentare «un semestre aggiuntivo all'università, per 400 ore totali. E non sempre la preparazione è all'altezza: per gli alunni con disabilità visiva, ad esempio, non è raro imbattersi in docenti di sostegno che non conoscono l'uso del Braille, la scrittura per ciechi»"
Un'altra imbarazzante dimostrazione di ignoranza: Per diventare insegnante di sostegno bisogna essere laureato, abilitato all'insegnamento e fare un corso specifico di 800 ore, oppure essere laureato, abilitato through university (SISSIS) and a specialized course of 400 hours. A journalist takes all of these studies before dirty pages with his (let me) bullshit?
courses support, it is true, do not allow the teaching of braille, but this is not the problem. The real problem is the lack of dear Stella didactic continuity dictated by the precarious course.

Dr. Stella Believe me, I esteem and I still esteem, but this time it really wrong target and measure.
goals because when it is destroying the Italian school she aims to categories of greatest suffering the consequences: teachers precarious and disabled students, and measure because it is true that many things do not go in the Italian school is not "sawing" that are fixed. Some examples? We have the rule for who is to remain stable for at least 5 years in the province it's been a role.
prevented a role in who gets the support to pass the teaching curriculum.
I say from experience that support teachers in the schools of the South are few compared to the needs of disabled students. I know guys "suffering" from Down sidrome with 6 hours of approved support.
The priority must be to help these children to integrate into the Italian school, not save maybe a few million to spend on Gaddafi hostess!

How Do You Stop Colors From Running

Vendola: "Solidarity with precarious seeking withdrawal Law 133"

Bari, 28 August - (Adnkronos) -''I can feel close to Peter, James and Salvo and all those in unions or individually, are fighting to save the future of our youth, our country and our school , asking the government to withdraw the law 133.'' This was stated in a statement the President of the Puglia Region and leader of the Left, Freedom and Ecology ', Nichi Vendola , about the hunger strike by Pietro Di Grus, James Russo and Altadonna Except that for over ten days in Palermo claiming their''right to work and to a dignified life and to protest the cuts inflicted by the Minister Gelmini to public school, with supervision and placet of Tremonti .'' ''Peter, James and Salvo are just three of the 160,000 temporary school in Italy - he continued - that the minister Gelmini decided to make the margins of society ', convinced that the best way to prepare for the future is cutting on public school education and the preparation of new generations. When you decide to stake their lives to protest when you come to consider the possibility ' to use their body to have a voice, it's always dramatic choices, exasperated, put immobility and blindness' of the institutions. Minister Gelmini fact - says Vendola - prefers to look elsewhere, or not responding''.


Vendola Minister''seems to prefer to continue along the path of the occultation dying body of the public school , humiliated and tortured by his counter and cuts of the last financial Tremonti who has seen fit to punish him and stop the salaries and seniority 'of teachers and school staff . More '€ 8 billion of resources excluded from the school and the future of our youth, to allocate fines to the European Union milk quotas to be paid and to cover the debts of the State ''. And the situation''and 'even more' dramatic in southern Italy, where the duo's ax Gelmini-Tremonti and 'made to feel better - the President - since 50% of the cuts are concentrated precisely in the South' s Italy, which were also stolen funds Fas . Once again it seems that Italy has different categories of citizens, based on the latitude in which we live. You can not do accountancy calculations on a public good such as education, you can not make indiscriminate cuts without considering the effects harmful and damage occurring in a crucial sector for development, on the contrary, would require more investment and more attention at a time of economic and social crisis like the one we live .''

Honey Beige By-glidden

reaffirmed the right of exceptions for the support and co-workers PROTESTS school

from the superando.it 08/24/2010


Speak a ministerial circular in late July, and waivers of hours of support, both on those employees necessary school pupils with disabilities. But it will be very necessary, as every year, ensuring that the concrete that is produced on paper

In Circular No. 37/10, which had sent the tables on the staff of law, the Ministry of Education had announced further details about the return of the allocation of hours to "additional" support, restored by 80/10 Judgement of the Constitutional Court.
Well, details are coming in Circular No. 59/10 of 23 July on the adaptation of law to the plan of circumstances. This document initially
reaffirms the obligation of the school administration to respect expenditure ceilings and the cuts imposed by Article 64 of Law 133/08, but also safety standards in the classrooms .
It continues to provide clarifications about the exceptions to the posts per il sostegno, ripristinate dalla Corte Costituzionale con la citata Sentenza 80/10, chiarendo in tal modo la logica della Sentenza stessa: «La ratio della norma - si scrive -, che prevede la possibilità di stabilire ore aggiuntive o posti di sostegno , è, infatti, quella di assicurare una specifica forma di tutela ai disabili in condizione di particolare gravità ; si tratta dunque di un intervento mirato, che trova applicazione una volta esperite tutte le possibilità previste dalla normativa vigente e che, giova precisare, non si estende a tutti i disabili a prescindere dal grado di disabilità, bensì tiene in debita considerazione la specifica tipologia di handicap da cui è affetta [Sic] the person concerned. "

Circular No 59/10 continues pointing out that in proven cases (under Article 35, paragraph 7 of Law 289/02, the Finance Bill for 2003) and reported (in accordance with Articles 9, paragraph 15 and 10, paragraph 5 of the Decree Law 78/10) by the Working Groups composed of the class teachers, family and social workers and health that follow individual students, the Regional School Directors must authorize exceptions.
Then we read: "The SS.LL., in agreement with the Regions, local authorities and other relevant institutional levels, identify how balanced and prudent deployment of professional resources and useful materials per l’integrazione degli alunni disabili, anche attraverso la costituzione di reti di scuole. Le classi delle scuole di ogni ordine e grado, comprese le sezioni di scuola dell’infanzia, che accolgono alunni con disabilità, sono costituite secondo i criteri e i parametri di cui all’art. 5 del Regolamento sul dimensionamento. Si raccomanda la massima attenzione nella costituzione delle classi con alunni disabili, nel senso di limitare, per quanto possibile, in presenza di grave disabilità, la formazione delle stesse con più di 20 alunni ».

E ancora, la Circolare parla poi degli organici dei collaboratori scolastici e prevede la possibilità di deroghe eccezionali , as follows: "The SS.LL., however, may permit contained, motivated, exceptions should the resources allocated to educational institutions do not make possible the orderly operation of school services, in compliance with contractual working time specifically articulated in the presence of multiple complexes schools , or where a situation of particular administrative complexity and to ensure adequate security in the use of laboratories . A similar mode of operation can be adopted in situations of constant difficulties caused by the high presence in some schools, staff inappropriate to the task of the profile for health reasons . In the latter situation the SS.LL. in order to compensate for the reduced supply of the service may consider assign a resource in more than school collaboration in institutions where there are two or three units of personal unsuitability o. [...] All variations of the posts made by SS.LL. must be the subject of specific, reasoned decision, to be issued by August 31 about [our bold, ed] to be transmitted and courteous urgency to the Directorate General for school staff. "

Circular finally ends with the provision of monitoring, "In order to verify the consistenza delle classi autorizzate in ogni singola istituzione scolastica è necessario organizzare negli Uffici scolastici regionali un Osservatorio diretto a monitorare gli esiti delle operazioni disciplinate dalla presente circolare. I predetti Osservatori regionali faranno confluire i dati e riferiranno all’Osservatorio nazionale».

Osservazioni
La Circolare n. 59/10 è assai importante e fornisce alcune garanzie agli alunni con disabilità. Alcune precisazioni appaiono tuttavie opportune, onde evitare conflitti e contenzioso giurisdizionale.

1. A proposito delle "deroghe per il sostegno", la Circolare ripete i termini «particolare gravità», già introdotti dall’articolo 35, paragraph 7 of the Law 289/02 (Budget 2003). In this regard it should be noted that current legislation does not provide an authentic interpretation of the particular period, while article 3, paragraph 3 of Law 104/92 provides a definition of gravity. Therefore, in the absence of a legal definition, no headmaster or Regional can arbitrarily decide if and when a case is particularly serious .
Much more interesting is the invitation to the Directors of Regional School - when approving exemptions to support - to take "the due attention to the specificity of the impairment of individual pupils . The expression is shown from the grounds of Judgement 80/10 of the Constitutional Court, but must be understood properly, ie not in the sense that the Directors Regional School can get to decide whether or not disability specific purposes of the exemption, but sense of Article 10, paragraph 5 of Law Decree 78/10 and that is that - in the presence of learning disabilities and / or sensory - should always be granted the exemption and that only in the case of physical disabilities, rather than of an intervention of educational support, assistance should be autonomy or communication that is the responsibility of local authorities under Article 139 of Legislative Decree 112/98.

2. About number of hours of support notwithstanding , has made clear that it is not necessarily considered to be fulfilled with more than half an hour in the chair support, nor with the longest duration of the entire school day, but - As stated by the State Council Decision No 2231/10 - it must meet "real needs" of the pupil, according to the functional diagnosis and the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) prepared for him dall'apposito Working Group on the basis of agreements between schools, local health authorities and agencies premises as set out in Article 1, paragraph 605, letter "b" of the Law 296/06 (Budget 2007), explicitly stated under Circular No. 59/10.

3. Compared with exceptions for school employees, complete the provisions of the Circular Note Ministerial on 9 June (AOODGPER/5706 Protocol) on the number of such personnel of law, namely that the exceptions for compensation may take place only between institutions.
Of course, if schools are forming a network, this operation is automatic, but if they are not, click the note said. Finally, if these compensations are not possible, take the Circular No. 59/10. About
of students with disabilities, their presence is specified in the Circular, but such qualora in una scuola vi sia un solo collaboratore scolastico inidoneo per motivi di salute, dovrà scattare l'assegnazione di un'unità in più che la Circolare prevede solo nel caso di due o tre di tali situazioni.
Ci permettiamo di far presente che l a deroga dovrebbe scattare pure - specie nelle scuole secondarie - laddove esistessero solo collaboratori maschi o femmine, per il doveroso rispetto al genere degli alunni a salvaguardia del diritto alla riservatezza nell’assistenza igienica , diritto certamente rientrante nell’articolo 2 della Costituzione.

4. Infine, a proposito del monitoraggio, sarebbe opportuno che dell’Osservatorio Regionale facesse parte anche il referente regionale per inclusive education in order to verify or report instances of non compliance in terms of training classes attended by pupils with disabilities (under Article 5, paragraph 2 of Presidential Decree 81/09, which is called the Circular) and of non-compliance with the Guidelines on Inclusive Education, the Ministry issued August 4, 2009. If this is done it will be important that the associations of persons with disabilities and their families keep in touch with these contacts in order to request information or provide - if they are held - in the event of any claims to be promoted at the Administrative Courts region (TAR).
