Insegnare “in cravatta e ciabatte”. Problemi, riflessioni e proposte intorno alla didattica online
Abstract
For months the discussion on schools and universities has concerned technical and organizational issues, yet nowadays the freedom of teaching is such only if educators are aware of the existence of various distance learning formats. Last May, Marco Soresina (Milan), Marcello Ravveduto (Salerno) and Albertina Vittoria (Sassari) talked about their respective didactic experiences during the lockdown, expressing opposite opinions on the lessons to be learned for the future. Beyond the social importance of distance learning, reflections emerge on the meaning of the teacher’s activity, on the conception of the lesson as a discursive process that calls into play both teacher and learner, and on the underestimation of some aspects — social isolation, copyright etc. — which should instead be brought to the fore in the debate.
