GENERAL TEACHING WITH LABORATORYModule GENERAL TEACHING
Academic Year 2024/2025 - Teacher: PAOLINA MULE'Expected Learning Outcomes
The course aims to achieve knowledge of the conceptual nuclei relating to the epistemological status of the discipline, offering food for thought on theoretical models and practices regarding active and cooperative as well as innovative teaching. The laboratory will allow us to plan an interdisciplinary UDA but also to prepare training projects and educational interventions aimed at managing and interpreting the complex educational-didactic reality.
Knowledge and understanding. Students know the theoretical-epistemological status of teaching as a complex science and its dimension in correlation with other sciences, in particular with those of education; they are able to understand the key concepts relating to teaching knowledge on the basis of the dialectical interaction between research and action and the mutual connections between the planning moment, the teaching event and the evaluation moment; to understand the different configurations of teaching (laboratory, metacognitive, modular, for research, for projects, for skills, etc.); to know the tools of educational planning framed in a critical key: the paths, the modules, the learning units and the main aspects of planning and evaluation in the educational field.
Applied knowledge and understanding. Students are able to process the knowledge acquired to prepare training projects and educational interventions aimed at managing and interpreting the complex educational-didactic reality; they are capable of setting up processes and paths, making use of effective planning and evaluation tools in the training field; I am able to use mediators and planning and evaluation tools in general teaching.
Autonomy of judgement. Students are able to independently evaluate the various methodological-didactic options for the individualization of paths and to indicate suitable training proposals, making coherent choices regarding contents, tools, spaces, times, materials. Communication skills. Students are able to explain the contents learned and argue a thesis correctly using the concepts of the pedagogical language; they are able to present and discuss project documents and describe how an educational experience is planned.
Learning ability. Attending lessons constitutes a moment of discussion, comparison and important teaching support. However, students will have to progressively become independent from the teacher, acquiring the ability to deepen their knowledge and develop it in a personal way with originality. students will be guided to reflect on their learning and self-evaluate their path to monitor, regulate and direct the learning process to develop skills in school planning and evaluation theoretical-epistemological status of teaching as a complex science and its dimension in correlation with other sciences, in particular with those of education; they are able to understand the key concepts relating to teaching knowledge on the basis of the dialectical interaction between research and action and the mutual connections between the planning moment, the teaching event and the evaluation moment; to understand the different configurations of teaching (laboratory, metacognitive, modular, for research, for projects, for skills, etc.); to know the tools of educational planning framed in a critical key: the paths, the modules, the learning units and the main aspects of planning and evaluation in the educational field.

Course Structure
The lessons will be carried out through a "mixed" methodology of a frontal and laboratory nature in the classroom through the active and collaborative participation of the students.
Required Prerequisites
Know the basic elements that characterize general teaching in relation to its specific object of investigation and the methodologies underlying it, also in relation to one's own professional experience.
Attendance of Lessons
The lessons are optional but strongly recommended, as they are characterized by the active participation of male and female students. Attending lessons allows you to progressively acquire mastery of the contents, to discuss topics and problems with colleagues and the teacher, and to constantly check your own learning levels. The frontal lessons will alternate with moments of group and individual work.

Learning Assessment
Learning Assessment Procedures
The assessment of learning, aimed at ascertaining the acquisition of disciplinary contents and their operational application, will be carried out in written form through the administration of structured and free items (questions). The written test must be completed within a pre-established time. Attending students will have the opportunity to carry out ongoing tests, in laboratory mode.
