Abstract

This paper presents the project and implementation of a Digital Storytelling Lab in two secondary-school classes with students (11-13 years old) with significant special educational needs.
Heterogeneously grouped, students were trained to use DS as a cooperative learning digital environment, aimed at social inclusion and acquisition of citizenship key-competencies.
Thanks to an environment that allowed them to experience problem solving, creativity, discussion, analysis and interpretation, students were able to appreciate the importance of experienced knowledge, to develop social skills and to take up both individual and group responsibility.
