The teaching illustrates the basic elements of planning for children from 0 to 3 years old and defines macro and micro-design formats. With a view to promoting and qualifying educational continuity in the zerosei integrated system and developing the vertical curriculum, the following are presented: some strategic devices (peer tutoring, shared reading, reality tasks); some quality and participatory research practices (Research-Action and Research-Training); the dynamics of the working group, the methods of coordination and the exercise of educational leadership.

Programme
The course “Instructional design and evaluation processes” is carried out with interactive teaching methods and takes into account the connection that exists between the educational planning and the interventions carried out over time. The teaching explores some issues useful for defining the educational system between 0-6 years old. The key topics of the course are useful to design quality educational experiences, the curriculum, the educational relationship (adult-child, peer to peer and peer to adult), the space-time environment, the game. The course includes tools to identify information, design, documents and narrate the educational experience: concept maps, the observation grids, the questionnaire, the logbook, the observation and exploration of the space.The teaching illustrates the basic elements of planning for children from 0 to 3 years old and defines macro and micro-design formats.

Non-attending students are required to carry out the same program as for attending students, including the study of any materials posted on the Department platform www.formonline.roma3. The final assessment will take into account the student's ability to: Know models, tools and techniques for the observation of children in socio-cultural and educational contexts; Know the strategies and techniques relating to the conception, design, systematic observation and evaluation of educational interventions, recognising their theoretical assumptions and intervention logics, consistent with the needs of children in different contexts; identify the methods for monitoring and self-evaluating the effectiveness of an educational action, also with reference to practical training or professional experience; explore the issue of the educator's competences; be aware of the most important legislative indications concerning the integrated zero-six system. The way in which the student is able to argue logically, to reflect on the arguments presented and to generate autonomous and original thoughts will be the subject of the final assessment.
