DADA TEAMS: an innovarive teaching experience

Abstract

Reading the needs of students, in the modern-day reality, requires teacher to intervene with innovative teaching methodologies, able to integrate the two dimensions (analog and digital) of teaching and to promote talents.

With these aims the comprehensive institute “Foscolo-Gabelli” in Foggia, formerly DADA school, signatory of a memorandum of understanding with the University of Foggia has included the DADA Teams in the Three-Year Plan of the Training Offer. They are cooperative working groups, carried out in curricular time. Within the DADA Teams, students are supported in learning by multimedia tools and learn to learn through transversal educational paths, discovering their talents passions and attitudes.

This study aims to document the experimentation contextualizing it in the panorama of research on the interactions between teaching and talent development, where the use of flexible and “open” technologies and learning environments can be a driving force for change.
