FINAL REPORT ON THE ACTIVITIES 'OUT
ANALYSIS SITUATION
The class is composed of 23 students all from the same institution. Some items come from other school and were inserted at the beginning of the current school year. This is a large class, but not unruly, the behavior quite correct and respectful, which has shown a participatory approach and motivated towards the activities curriculum.
CONTENT OF THE PROGRAM
(It is considered appropriate to have read the final program attached)
the content of lessons conducted in accordance with this program has been posted on my blog at the url http://ilprofonline.blogspot.com SCHOOL ON LINE, where You can see it in detail. This content has been made available to students as a reference for individual study.
The curriculum has been appropriately incorporated in a real monographic course on the model of university courses in order to give students an overview of the disciplines combined, unitary, even in the case of cuts or program selection.
Program History has, for a specific choice of a teacher, interdisciplinary nature, modular according to the dictates of the experimental project Pitcher, and is divided into different units of instruction. The course program aims to create an open path to that of the ministerial program, promoting a more complete understanding of the issues to address and the promotion of autonomous computing skills, together with the cognitive and critical abilities of individual students.
The course of history involves the scanning of the main cultural and historical events, issues and themes of the history of the twentieth century, with particular attention to the contexts of the philosophical and literary object. Pupils were presented three types of route: a historical overview of the period, a political-social and economic framework.
In agreement with their colleagues from the Department has sought to give students a tool often overlooked in the study of historical sciences, namely the so-called "windows" on local history and territory, with particular attention to events in the province but also the Middle Campidano especially regarding the aspects and problems of the history of Sardinia.
INTERVENTIONS integrated educational
To ensure greater continuity and integration with the program of the preceding class, the lessons were carried out to recover the fourth class of arguments is not performed. These arguments, listed below are not part of the program of the current school year, being only intended for recovery.
Topics: Unification, Unification of Italy.
GOALS SCORED
In the experimental process Pitcher historical discipline plays a vital supportive role in the matters of address areas. The aim of the course was therefore to provide students with a concise, comprehensive overview of the main areas of human history and thought of the centuries under the program, such as completion and integration of the curriculum took place in the core subject. Depending on the purpose of this course has a modular structure, divided into thematic units a monographs, and interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary, and then open to the participation of teachers from other disciplines. This is to include the extraterritorial dimension of history, devoid of content and inserting it in a monadic epistemological open, multidisciplinary, in which its theoretical constructs may provide an effective basis to the study of the various curricula .. The course of the path is not however, was optimal, as the trial Pitcher, like any educational project, needs an effective text support, which was absent, and a real work of teaching team who for various reasons could not be done. This has made the programs less blended together.
LA SCELTA DEL LIBRO DI TESTO
In accordo coi Colleghi di Dipartimento si è data la preferenza a un testo la cui fruizione potesse rientrare nel programma di comodato d’uso attuato dal nostro Istituto. Il testo in questione, sebbene molto valido, non è decisamente adeguato alle esigenze di un Liceo Sperimentale Brocca, e per questo si sono rese necessarie alcune modifiche alla modalità di utilizzo dei testi in oggetto, per modellarli sulle caratteristiche del Piano Annuale delle Attività da me proposto a inizio anno scolastico.
METODI DI LAVORO UTILIZZATI
Lo strumento per eccellenza della comunicazione nelle discipline umanistiche è la lezione frontale. L’analisi del testo, together with the verbalization of the contents are elements of an effective dialogue imprenscindibili theoretical. Nevertheless the educational requirements have necessitated the use of instruments parallel and no less effective, such as multimedia and summaries to be used as a frame of reference for audits and for individual work. Great importance was given to work on the Internet, on sites like Wikipedia is sought on url in full autonomy by the student. The Minutes of the individual lectures was made available on my blog online school, because every student could see it from home or on your smartphone or iPhone. The material produced in perfect keeping with the wiki philosophy, it is obviously freely downloadable, printable and sharable with others, and has the same value and the same features of the textbook, which is extracted.
VERIFICATION TOOLS USED
The Assessment of the content has been implemented through the written and oral form. The written form by testing different types in order to accustom students to the third round of state exams, the oral by the classic question, and through the direct involvement of the student to classroom activities. Each student has been informed promptly of the outcome of each test and criteria for the assessment of acquired skills highlighted in the Plan of Activities Curriculum introduced in September.
POLICIES IN PLACE
Assessing the content knowledge of the humanities is not easy because they often blend with the social and existential experience of the individual who receives them within himself. Respecting the autonomy of the educational work and the ministerial program, have identified four areas of evaluation:
knowledge of the structural elements of the framework
activation and use of vocabulary specific to the discipline
maturation of autonomous computing skills
capacity interdisciplinary
These elements are complex to measure, but in principle I think indicative the classic grid-mode evaluation scale from 1 to 10: extremely poor or non-assessable (1-2), poor or inadequate (3-4), almost enough or poor (5), sufficient (6), discrete (7), good (8), very good or excellent (9), excellent (10).
In this case the ratings are broken down as follows:
1-2: no knowledge of the contents
3-4: lack of knowledge of the contents
5: insufficient knowledge of the contents
6: 7
sufficient content knowledge: knowledge of safe content
8: proper properties of language, construction of interdisciplinary courses
9-10: autonomous computing skills
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS
This is a very heterogeneous group, class, and sometimes quite lively but successful participation, relevant to the themes presented and ordered in terms of discipline. Pupils have achieved satisfactory results, the program has been successfully completed before mid-May in order to focus more on audits and investigations. Although the new guidelines implemented by the Ministry, the pitcher is still testing very good learning experience: regret, however, point out how difficult - if not impossible - to implement a true experiment Pitcher, both for the lack of textbooks suitable for the 'absence of a phase common project.
