Conoscere gli obiettivi dell’Agenda 2030 per un futuro sostenibile Il 2030 è la data che l’ONU ha indicato come traguardo per il raggiungimento dei 17 obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile: la lotta alla povertà, l’eliminazione della fame nel mondo, il contrasto al cambiamento climatico, la parità di genere, l’istruzione di qualità – per citarne solo alcuni.

‘Obiettivi comuni’ significa che essi riguardano tutti i Paesi e tutti gli individui: nessuno ne è escluso, né deve essere lasciato indietro lungo il cammino necessario per portare il mondo sulla strada della sostenibilità.

Nei volumi del Gruppo Editoriale ELi le tematiche legate all’Agenda 2030 vengono affrontate in modo coinvolgente e costruttivo, attraverso testi, attività, video e immagini volti a sensibilizzare la classe a una comprensione più attenta e critica di ciò che succede nel mondo.

L’attenzione alle competenze, cognitive e non cognitive (soft skills), completa il nostro impegno nella formazione di cittadine e cittadini consapevoli e responsabili di uno sviluppo sostenibile.

Il nostro impegno per l’inclusione, le diversità e la parità di genere La parità di genere è il quinto dei diciassette obiettivi dell’Agenda 2030 e mira a ottenere la parità di opportunità tra donne e uomini nello sviluppo economico, l’eliminazione di tutte le forme di violenza nei confronti di donne e ragazze e l’uguaglianza di diritti a tutti i livelli di partecipazione.

Il Gruppo Editoriale ELi in collaborazione con il Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici dell’Università di Macerata ha creato un programma di ricerca costante mirato all’eliminazione degli stereotipi di genere all’interno delle proprie pubblicazioni.

L’obiettivo è di ispirare e ampliare gli scenari delle studentesse e degli studenti, del corpo docente e delle famiglie fornendo esempi aderenti ai valori di giustizia sociale e rispetto delle differenze, favorendo una cultura dell’inclusione.

Ci impegniamo a operare per una sempre più puntuale qualificazione dei libri attraverso: CONTENUTI

attenzione ai contenuti al fine di promuovere una maggiore consapevolezza verso una scenario più equilibrato da un punto di vista sociale e culturale;

IMMAGINI

valutazione iconografica ragionata per sensibilizzare a una cultura di parità attraverso il linguaggio visivo;

LINGUAGGIO utilizzo di un linguaggio testuale inclusivo, puntuale e idoneo a qualificare i generi oltre ogni stereotipo.

An unusual job Warm up 1 Look at the photos and read the title of

the article. Where are the men? What do you think is unusual about their day?

A Typical Day in Space On a typical day in space astronauts have got a lot of different jobs to do.

A work day on the International Space Station isn’t eight hours, it’s twelve hours!

The astronauts get up when it’s morning at Mission Control in Houston, Texas. They haven’t got a bathroom on the Space Station and water is difficult to use because there’s no gravity. The astronauts wash with gel soap and then they put on their clothes. They have breakfast in the ‘kitchen’, then they look at their list of jobs for the day. They talk to Mission Control about any problems they’ve got, and then they start work.

The Space Station is the astronauts’ laboratory.

It’s also their office and their home. In the afternoon they work on experiments with the scientists at Mission Control. They write about their experiments on their computers, they look at data and they clean the Space Station. It’s very important to keep healthy in space too, so the astronauts also exercise for two hours every day. This helps them prepare for space walks. They put on their special spacesuits and helmets and they practise walking in them.

In the evening the astronauts sit down to have dinner and talk about their day. They don’t make dinner, or cook any of their meals, because their food comes in packets. It’s not delicious but it is healthy.

They go to bed when it’s night in Houston, but they haven’t got beds, they sleep in special chairs!

(1947-2016) Born David Robert Jones in Brixton, South London, during his career Bowie produces 27 studio albums and hundreds of singles. He also stars in films, theatre shows, and is the voice behind Lord Royal Highness in TV’s Spongebob Squarepants.

Innovative, creative and iconic, Bowie constantly changes his musical style, appearance and identity. Famous alter-egos include: astronaut, Major Tom; alien, Ziggy Stardust; and the aristocratic Thin White Duke.

A master of self-promotion, he presents Black Star, his final album, on his 69th birthday. Two days later he dies. ‘Look up here: I’m in heaven’, say the lyrics of the song ‘Lazarus’ on that album.

Where is Major Tom? What can Major Tom see?

What can he do to resolve his problem?

Space Oddity is Bowie’s first chart hit in

1969, the year astronauts land on the moon.

Critics see the song’s character, Major Tom, who loses contact with Earth, as a metaphor for Bowie’s own isolation and loss of control.

Whatever its true meaning, the song becomes the background to the 1969 Apollo 11 Moon Landing on TV.
