Course title: Intercultural pedagogy and education for identity citizenship

Course programme:
Intercultural and Citizenship Pedagogy is one of the fundamental course in the curriculum for students who become teacher of Primary School. The discipline aims at forming the knowledge and competences related to intercultural and citizenship education in consideration of the international migration and the recent introduction of “Constitution and Citizenship” as new compulsory subject in the national curriculum. The knowledge of the Italian Constitution leads the students to the identification of the political and socio-cultural values and understanding the meaning of the resources and strategies for the active citizenship education in the multicultural society and multi-faith context. Special attention concerns the migration of children in the Third Millennium. The research in school educates new teachers for the social inclusion with action against cultural prejudices, racism and social discrimination. The concepts of peace, tolerance, solidarity and responsibility as inclusive citizenship open to challenge in the face of persistent migration that increasingly involves refugee children, unaccompanied at risk of dropping out.

Type of delivery of the course

Methodology The methodology followed is called M.I.T.E. acronym for Multiple Interaction Team Education and is based on the interaction of more people, skills, situations, processes, contexts. Hence the use of multiple words. The process of knowledge and learning refers to the participation of active people who, voluntarily and intentionally, start moving, almost interacting with pedagogical knowledge, and organize their training in that context and with the means that are always indicated, specified and clarified. Hence the meaning of interaction. The interactive process starts when we understand what to do, how to do it, how to do it, so to produce teaching and learning. Being willing to work together and knowing how to coordinate with others is a fundamental prerequisite. Hence the value of the word team. The ultimate goal is to learn by knowing, experimenting, doing, and promoting a new, knowledge-oriented education. Hence the reference to the word education. It starts with goals and processes known to generate new knowledge with the practice of innovation experienced in school life situations of educational contexts. In M.I.T.E. the emphasis is on the dynamics of multiple interaction that is the basis of the epistemic creation by the group. Students, along with teachers, take the responsibility of identifying problems to deepen, produce their provisional solutions, or theories, and improve them with common research and constructive use of authoritative sources and dialogue in the perspective of production / creation / building of new knowledge. With this methodology, the centrality of the students' ideas is assigned. The teacher learns by teaching, that is, he proposes the paths and experiences them together with the students.
