Employability & Competences
The book is the final report of the researches, discussions, conversations around and about the Project PRIN Employability & Competences which took place on March 9th-‐11th, 2017 within an International Conference at the University of Florence. It was the final event of the project PRIN2012LATR9N which aims were: «to design innovative programs for higher education, to promote personalized and learner-centered teaching and learning, to build on job competencies, to value talents to create new work opportunities, to support young adults during their employment emergency, as a response to socio economic crisis and as a citizenship action». The research activities concerned the main phases of the students’ academic life: career guidance upon entry, personalized teaching, career calling, professional vocation, profession building activities such as internships and work related experiences, and lastly job placement.
Psycho-pedagogical research in a Double-degree programme
In this volume we have collected the contributions of many colleagues from the teaching board of Double Degree Joint Master’s Programme in Pedagogy and Educational Sciences and Training of Sapienza University of Rome and two prestigious universities of the Russian Federation: Moscow Federal University for Psychology and Pedagogy (MSUPE) and North-Caucasus Federal University (NCFU) at Stavropol. The present anthology is meant to review the positions and studies that individual teachers from the different universities involved presented in recent years, during online courses, in the lecturing, in the meetings and to discuss their possible opportunities. The volume puts forward this programme, to spread its structure, the theoretical assumptions and the various positions. The contributions are meant to testify a keen interest in internationalization that Sapienza is carrying out. The contributions collected give the reader a chance to share a common interest in the promising approach implied by the Historical-cultural trend in Psychology and Pedagogy of the Vygotsky’s thought, which seems a must in psycho-pedagogical reflections, and in organizing and evaluating school activities.
Inclusive Education
Starting in the 1970s, the Italian government has passed a set of legislative provisions known as integrazione scolastica. Separate special education classes were abolished and all students were admitted into mainstream schools, regardless of any disability, impairment, or any other personal characteristic or social circumstance. The Italian model seems to be an ideal context for the development of inclusive education when compared to other realities in Europe and in the world, where, in some cases, special schools and/or classes are still the only available options for students with disabilities or impairments. Does such perception correspond to reality? This book aims to critically analyse and discuss the Italian model of inclusive education from international and intercultural perspectives, as a way to address a crucial theme for educators, school administrators, policymakers, citizens and parents.

Scienze dell'educazione e inclusione sociale
L’inclusione sociale è sempre più presente tra i primi posti delle agende politiche nazionali e internazionali di questi ultimi anni. Ci si interroga sempre più sulle tematiche dello svantaggio e della povertà culturale, che sono alla base delle disuguaglianze educative e sociali. Le scienze dell'educazione sono chiamate a fornire il massimo contributo di ricerca e di intervento nell’ottica delle politiche di coesione dell’Unione Europea, proprio perché i diversi sistemi di istruzione, le politiche educative e gli interventi volti a ridurre le disuguaglianze sociali non sono ancora riusciti negli anni a ridurre i divari, le marginalizzazioni, le esclusioni, i livelli di dispersion...
Interculturality in Institutions
This book provides qualitative analyses of intercultural sense making in a variety of institutional contexts. It relies on the assumption that in an increasingly culturally diverse world, individuals often enter contexts that have communal, historically determined and stable sets of values, norms and expected identities, with little cultural compass to find their bearings in them. The book goes beyond interpreting differences in people’s ethnic or linguistic roots and discusses instead people’s interpretive efforts to navigate different sociocultural situations. The contributors examine such situations in educational, organizational, medical and community settings and look at how participants with different levels of sociocultural competences (such as, migrant patients, migrant adult learners, children) try to cope with institutional constraints and expectations, how they understand symbols, practices and identities in institutional contexts, and how their creative adjustments come to light. This book provides insights from the fields of psychology, education, anthropology and linguistics, and is for a wide readership interested in cultural meaning-making.

La scuola delle relazioni e della responsabilità
In questo volume si presentano alcune piste di ricerca-formazione che Sapienza, Università di Roma, ha sviluppato in questi anni nel liceo Morgagni di Roma, e che rientrano nel piano di monitoraggio del Progetto SRR (La Scuola delle Relazioni e della Responsabilità). Il progetto della scuola ha riguardato una sezione, la G, che ha attuato e sta attuando da alcuni anni specifici principi di valutazione formativa: la proposta didattica consiste nel fornire durante il quadrimestre valutazioni descrittive, formative, orientative per migliorare gli apprendimenti e per giungere, solo a fine quadrimestre, ad attribuire voti. Una scommessa didattica e pedagogica che ha investito i diversi consigli...
Narrazione e educazione
Presentare una riflessione corale sull’intreccio tra narrazione e educazione richiede cautela per diversi motivi: perché, naturalmente, si rende necessario tener conto di ogni voce; perché la natura della relazione è complessa e perché, infine, è implicito il richiamo a una dimensione epistemologica di grande rilievo. La narrazione, così come l’educazione, hanno un valore gnoseologico e presentano una impronta conoscitiva molto profonda, marcata e immediatamente visibile. Il senso della relazione complessa tra narrazione e educazione, tra racconto ed esperienza e tra esperienza e crescita individuale e collettiva è restituito da varie angolazioni nei contributi raccolti nel volume. Come un poliedro dalle tante facce, questo rapporto può assumere sensi diversi a seconda del contesto, delle interpretazioni, del quadro di riferimento nel quale si sceglie di collocarlo.
