Abstract

Durante il lockdown dovuto alla pandemia di COVID-19, diverse iniziative online sono state organizzate al fine di fornire agli insegnanti e agli educatori le competenze necessarie per affrontare la transizione all'insegnamento a distanza. La partecipazione a questo tipo di iniziative, destinate allo sviluppo professionale, può essere considerata come una strategia di apprendimento tramite auto-regolazione (Self-regulation), grazie alla quale gli utenti hanno la possibilità di ridurre un gap di competenze percepito. In questo lavoro, esploriamo e descriviamo le aspettative e i bisogni di apprendimento percepiti da un gruppo di partecipanti volontari alla serie di webinar riguardante la "Didattica di emergenza da remoto", realizzata dall'European Distance E-learning Network (EDEN). I dati raccolti attraverso un breve questionario, compilato da 607 partecipanti, mostrano che più del 50% degli intervistati ha autovalutato il proprio livello di competenza come alto. I risultati forniscono spunti interessanti circa la progettazione di percorsi di sviluppo professionale online aperti a diversi target di fruitori.
