Framework
This initiative capitalises on the results generated in the TRIS project, a joint undertaking with the Ministry of Education and Fondazione TIM. It comprises both classroom piloting and teacher training activities devoted to the deployment of hybrid learning environments, with a view to supporting inclusive learning for those such as homebound students who have difficulty in regularly attending school. In the first year, an experimental hybrid classroom will be activated in a lower secondary school class whose members include a homebound learner.
Objectives
The overarching aim of the project is to test and refine a model for hybrid classes devoted to the inclusion of homebound learners. This forms part of the broad endeavour to promote the use of digitally-enhanced learning environments to foster life skills, especially where social relations are concerned.
Major Activities
- Monitor the use made of digital technologies within the hybrid classroom
- Gauge related learning needs by means on an online questionnaire
- Produce distance training modules addressing emerging training needs
- Monitor the transfer of know-how among the teacher cohort involved
- Evaluate efficacy and critical aspects that could impact on transferability
