The courses were held in all of John plexus and has involved pupils Parents and teachers of the various complexes of the primary school of Didactic "GA De Cosmi, the duration of each course was 30 hours, while parents have the course was completed in 60 hours.
The project implementation of the NOP for the students included a series of actions aimed to expand and integrate the course of teaching and education with active modes of learning and methodologies workshop.
Laboratories provides the most direct, engaging and best suited to promote the expression of the creative potential of students, which was used for the teaching laboratory, offering students avenues of work that would enable them to learn by doing.
These workshops have enabled life to students with a great unique theatrical event that involved teachers, pupils and parents.
This experience for the students was also crucial for growth, mutual respect, active participation, control over emotions, cooperation and interpersonal collaboration.
For parents it is certainly, again, a positive experience both in skills and in terms of socialization.
were mainly used the following methods:
Teaching Cooperative Learning workshop
Lectures
Problem solving
Peer education (peer education)
Methodology individual
Management of the group of participants in the project
was chosen for the large group the lectures, while in the conduct of laboratory activities the students worked in small groups.
Each group was composed of students with diverse skills to foster not only learning but also to allow socialization and, where possible, consolidate the existing friendly relationship between the boys.
The course was well organized, the proposed work have found a high level of customer satisfaction and have been adapted to the capabilities and interests of pupils. The planned targets were met fully by the majority.
The objective / action B1:
"innovative measures for the promotion of key skills, particularly technical and scientific disciplines, mathematics, mother tongue, foreign languages, civics skills (legal, environment, etc.)." "Learning new ways of teaching" aimed at teachers of the Didactic "GA De Cosmi" were activated two training courses lasting 30 hours each.
The retraining of teachers is an important element of quality of the education service, it is designed to provide teachers with the cultural and scientific experimentation and innovation to support teaching. The teaching profession is now call to deal with what is happening in other areas of social and cultural life in advanced societies: its role is gradually losing the activities associated with the transmission of knowledge (function now assumed by the variety and availability of different media) and is becoming increasingly sophisticated functions design and preparation of teaching environments and interactions for the process of teaching-learning
L 'lens, which covered the activities of professional development for teachers, is based on the methods and instruments are consistent with the implementation of the Plan and in particular study:
- software presentation, as they require use of the Italian language through means of communication that takes account of the contemporary use through modern presentation software, other complementary codes. The teacher must acquire the ability to use multiple codes harmoniously to enhance its educational intervention.
- of a photo-editing software as the teacher, in the culture of our age which sees the irrepressible presence of images in all communicative contexts, should be able to know how to "treat" your digital photos for your intentions educational
- of the Internet to find online all information and all materials that may be useful to enrich and facilitate the learning of pupils.
Overall it underlines the efficiency of all the actors involved at various levels and with different functions throughout the PON.
Crucial in this regard has been the role played by the Project Operative Group (consisting of the Headmaster, DSGA, Facilitator / Animator, Contact lens evaluation and tutors), who initiated and managed the entire implementation phase , making choices for the success of functional training.
The success of this initiative was, in fact, encouraged by the synergic action of human resources, who were able to optimize time, cost and intervention strategies. Effective and timely collaboration has proved to be non-teaching staff to ensure the functioning of the course.
The dissemination and publication of the entire plan has been done through information and awareness activities (call for selection, posters, brochures, posters, final event, ...) enrollment and on the website of the Institute and also through bodies, local information.
In conclusion I believe that the project has been training and educational opportunity for students, and that the success of it, is also the result of the climate of peace and cooperation in which they have interacted with the tutors, lecturers and experts.
It 's the second time that our Institute has developed a similar experience and, given the success, will hopefully be continuing a long journey that the school should do to open up more and more to Europe.
