Nell’ambito del progetto PLS – Piano Lauree Scientifiche, Maurizio Zani, responsabile del laboratorio di sperimentazione didattica ST2 del Politecnico di Milano, ha organizzato un incontro formativo dal mtitolo
„In-formazione”
rivolto ai docenti delle materie scientifiche delle scuole secondarie di II grado.
L’incontro si svolgerà giovedì 21/11/2019 alle ore 15:00 presso l’Auditorium del Politecnico di Milano,vin Via Pascoli 53 (Casa dello studente);
di seguito il programma dell’incontro e relativi relatori
La Scuola Academy propone a tutti i docenti Scuola Secondaria un webinar gratuito che esaminerà alcune tipologie di strategie didattiche, dalla più tradizionale lezione frontale alle forme più innovative d’insegnamento (come il microlearning), valutandone i livelli di efficacia sulla base delle evidenze scientifiche.
Formatrice e Tutor: Maddalena Albano, docente esperta di Didattica digitale.
Come può un docente validare le proprie strategie didattiche e scegliere quelle che possono conseguire risultati migliori? La prospettiva offerta dall’educazione basata su evidenze scientifiche (Evidence Based Education) può aiutare i professionisti della formazione a documentarsi sull’efficacia delle diverse strategie didattiche.
Il webinar affronta la complessa questione dei rapporti tra didattica innovativa e didattica efficace, comparando alcune tipologie di strategie didattiche, dalla più tradizionale lezione frontale alle forme più innovative d’insegnamento come il microlearning, valutandone i livelli di efficacia sulla base delle evidenze scientifiche.
Formatrice: Maddalena Albano, dirigente scolastica, formatrice, già docente di scuola secondaria di secondo grado, esperta di Didattica Digitale.
Come funziona:
Il formatore propone una relazione supportata da slides e da una chat in cui i partecipanti possono porre domande in diretta. Dopo aver effettuato l’iscrizione il corsista riceverà conferma all’indirizzo e-mail fornito in fase di registrazione. Il giorno prima del webinar, invece, riceverà via e-mail il link e le credenziali di accesso per collegarsi e partecipare.
N.B. La Scuola Academy invierà via mail l’attestato di partecipazione ai docenti che avranno seguito l’evento “live” (data e orario previsti dal programma).
The findings of our latest survey show that the school environment is generally not suitable for 21st-century education. Teachers wish to have a flexible space in the school for varied learning approaches to facilitate innovation, and they believe that there are simple, low-cost steps that can be taken to improve the learning environment.
Thinking about the learning environment in your school or a school you know of, is it fit for purpose? Does it support innovative teaching and learning? How could it be different?
I risultati a mio parere piùsignificativi:
Il 60% dei docenti intervistati segnala„ più integrazione della tecnologia a supporto dell’apprendimento“ come cambiamento più desiderato
il 68% chiede invece uno spazio flessibile nella scuola aperto a diversi approcci di apprendimento
Which three changes to the learning environment would you most like to see?
Asked about which three changes to the learning environment they would like to see in their schools, respondents most frequently cited a flexible space in the school for varied learning approaches (68%). Almost as many (60%) express a desire for more integration of technology to support learning. Other desired changes include more open spaces to support teacher collaboration (39%), more variety of furniture (e.g. large cushions, adjustable desks) (39%), attractive surroundings (e.g. works of art, posters, plants, displays of students’ work) (34%), adaptation to improve access for students with special needs or disabilities (21%) and improved lighting or sound insulation (17%). A minority of respondents indicated that they would like to have better air quality and permission to change the furniture layout (11% and 10%).
Conclusioni
The survey reveals that two thirds of respondents think that their school does not have an environment conducive to 21st-century education.
The classroom seems to be the main space used for teaching and learning, and a black- or whiteboard together with a projector seems to be the equipment available in the majority of the classrooms. Most classrooms are set up for 21-30 students and the most common seating layout is pairs of desks in rows. Participants tend to disagree that changes to learning environments distract students or create stress to teachers. Respondents believe that innovation in teaching and learning is facilitated by the school’s learning environment – the school design encourages teachers to apply new ideas, collaborate and experiment, as well as supports the use of technologies.
Most respondents believe that it is possible to change the learning environment in their school and that there are simple, low-cost steps to do so. However, 8 out of 10 respondents agree that ministries and regional/local authorities are not supporting schools enough in creating an optimal environment for modern teaching and learning.
Many participants would like their schools to have a flexible space for varied learning approaches and they would like to integrate technology in the learning process to support learning. They also highlight the need for teacher collaboration, so it is not surprising that they would like to have more open spaces to support it.
