L’influenza di un Corso di Formazione per Insegnanti Volontari di Italiano L2 Sullo Sviluppo di Prassi Pedagogiche Adatte ai Bisogni di Cittadini Migranti. L’analisi di un Caso Studio

Abstract

In this paper we present the characteristics and outcomes of a training course for volunteer teachers of L2 Italian to low educated and/or literate migrants. We will analyse the training needs of the teachers and the school, the characteristics of the training intervention and its effects on the teaching practice of the teachers involved, detected through the administration of questionnaires drawn up to analyse the effectiveness of the different modules of the training intervention. The results indicate that the course under study has triggered some virtuous changes both in teaching practice and in the organization of the school. It is also noted that the obstacle most perceived by the teachers involved is the management of the lack of literacy, a problem that affects about 20% of the students of the school.
