Course title: Education in preprimary and primary school

Course program:
General Pedagogy concerns the theoretical and practical training in the general education of the future teacher in kindergarten and primary school. The General Pedagogy is a basic discipline in the curriculum of teacher education and is preliminary to any other discipline. For this reason, its study is considered crucial for acquiring the necessary scientific language to understand the epistemological articulation, historical, methodological and introduces the pedagogical knowledge in the context of international development of science education and the definition of the pedagogical theory. The discipline forms to the analysis and understanding of the educational process with critical reflection on the elements that characterize the educational action taking into account the centrality of the person, who is the origin and end of the speech on education. The consideration of the anthropological background which is rooted in the school of the future teacher requires an open mind formation and a professional competence constantly updated. Teachers should be able to respond to the contemporary challenges which make problematic the issue of child development. The study of pedagogy relies on the production of meaning and educating considers relevant contributions of authors and schools of thought that mark the path of transformations that are partially consolidated, such as historical one, and partly on the move, as the becoming of the same education of teacher. The dynamic interaction between possessed knowledge and acquired knowledge allows you to enter the heart of the educational problems and address them with the necessary knowledge. The route leads to the definition of the profile of the teacher in Italy and in Europe, through the knowledge of the formative history outlined by educators and pedagogues who generated scientific theories and scientifically relevant practices starting from their school experience. The connective tissue of the different phases of teaching considers the balance between theory, practice, and development, which is the definition of a triple identity: subject, object, knowledge context. The identity of the human person, the subject who knows; the disciplinary identity, an object of knowledge; the identity context of the result of the active interaction between subject and object. From an ethical point of view, a specific point concerns the humanistic perspective of values that educate generations who live in school their first experience of educating the community and whole responsibility.

Type of delivery of the course

Methodology The methodology followed is called the 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 as 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 interactions that are 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. Teaching methods - In the presence and distance teaching and learning - Interactive teaching and learning - On line documents - Internet communication - Scientific research - E-mail: sandra.chistolini@uniroma3.it - Form an online platform In the event of an extension of the COVID-19 health emergency, all provisions governing the way in which teaching activities and student assessment are carried out will be implemented. In particular, the following modes will apply distance and in-person.
