Formazione degli insegnanti, Innovazione didattica, Analisi quanti-qualitativa, Sviluppo professionale continuo degli insegnantiAbstract
Il contributo presenta una ricerca valutativa finalizzata a valutare un’attività di formazione sull’innovazione didattica che ha coinvolto insegnanti di scuola secondaria di primo e secondo grado. Il focus del contributo è la valutazione in itinere degli incontri condotti per condividere un ciclo di apprendimento-insegnamento basato su una sfida intellettuale posta agli studenti. Vengono considerati i risultati delle analisi quantitative e qualitative relativi alla valutazione delle reazioni degli insegnanti nei confronti delle modalità di conduzione e dei contenuti degli incontri, così come in termini generali e complessivi. I risultati consentono di concludere che le reazioni sono state decisamente positive e avvalorano, in linea con la letteratura sulle caratteristiche di efficacia dello sviluppo professionale continuo degli insegnanti, le scelte formative effettuate. Pur nel quadro di un bilancio positivo, gli insegnanti hanno tuttavia evidenziato alcune criticità intrinseche ed estrinseche all’attività di formazione, che permettono di definire ciò che si può migliorare in futuro.
