This article examines the theoretical implications associated with the study of the phenomenon of early school leaving amongst foreign-born students. Its aim to provide an overview of a theoretical framework able to describe and capture the different factors involved in this complex problem. This paper begins with a description of the phenomenon of early school leaving amongst foreign-born students, while the second part the article outlines the theoretical framework underlying the study of school dropout, according to a systemic and bioecological perspective of development. Here, different dimensions are analyzed, referring in particular to the ecological model as proposed by Bronfenbrenner (1995): time, interactional, personal, social and cultural dimensions are discussed. Drawing on a systemic, multifactorial, analytical approach, this reflection deepens the understanding of how different factors influence the academic pathways of foreign-born students, causing irregularity in the course of their studies and raising the risk of leaving school early.

Teachers’s attitudes towards disability and inclusion may affect the promotion of an inclusive perspective and the implementation of inclusive practices and strategies in order to promote a culture of diversity. This paper presents an explorative and descriptive study that aims to investigate teachers’ attitudes towards the representation of disability within school textbooks and instructional materials. This study found that teachers would favor a wider representation of disability in instructional materials. However, despite being aware of the limits of representation within the school textbook, teachers continue to primarily rely on it as a source of materials and rarely adapt it to make it more inclusive. The study also found that teachers are aware of socio-cultural and contextual limitations that prevent a more inclusive approach to representation in school materials.

Assessing family care work is an extremely complex task, full of risks (because it concerns people’s life). It requires sensitivity, great self-awareness and awareness of one's own prejudices and of one’s own idea of family. In order to make an assessment professionals must have a curious attitude, capable of constantly seeking connections between interacting subjects, and these subjects include the observer him/herself, his/her thoughts and epistemology. This paper presents the reflections emerging from a high level inservice training course aimed at care and education professionals, based on narrative and reflective methodologies.

Focus group technique is often described as a subaltern procedure for collecting and analysing data, underestimating the FG great value; today this method has such a big scientific reputation that it is widely applied in different social research areas such as marketing, education, communication. This theoretical study aims at deeply analyze the matter about the right number of participants for a focus group; this methodological consideration can provide useful elements in order to balance risks and benefits when planning qualitative research in social context. In addition to the numerosity matter there are some elements to carefully consider for an effective focus group research: the sensitivity of themes, the scope of the research, the recording setting, the social category of both participants and researcher, the client.

The article is the outcome of a theoretical reflection on the nature of the interpretative category of ‘intercultural competence’ and on how it can be promoted at school. The author, starting from a revision work of the pedagogical scientific literature related to the concepts of pedagogy and intercultural competence, then review some actions (at educational, curricular and institutional levels) that the Institutes can carry out to favor the full inclusion and the well-being of students as well as all the actors involved in the school system. These actions include: the student mobility and the school internationalization, the establishment of partnerships with organizations and institutions that (at various levels) deal with the intercultural education in the territory, activities emphasizing the multiple perspectives, in general, the enhancement of relationality.
