VALUTAZIONE FORMANTE PER L’ATTIVAZIONE COGNITIVA. SPUNTI PER UN USO EFFICACE DELLE TECNOLOGIE PER APPRENDERE IN CLASSE

Contenuto principale dell'articolo

Abstract

L’introduzione di tecnologie per apprendere in classe (in particolare tablet, dispositivi mobili, personal computer) fornisce interessanti opportunità di apprendimento, ma queste non sono automatiche: docenti e discenti necessitano di imparare come trarne effettivo vantaggio in termini di miglior attivazione cognitiva. Il presente articolo propone una prospettiva che mira a superare la separazione tra didattica e valutazione in favore di una prospettiva integrata: la valutazione formante, ossia una forma di valutazione che è essa stessa momento di apprendimento oltre che di verifica degli apprendimenti acquisiti. Allo scopo di esemplificare il concetto e favorirne l’applicazione in classe l’articolo presenta modelli di progettazione di consegne di valutazione formante e esempi di protocolli per il debriefing e per la rilevazione osservativa delle capacità sviluppate dagli allievi.
