Abstract

L'importanza di sviluppare competenze di data literacy nelle scuole secondarie è stata sempre più riconosciuta nel corso degli anni. Al fine di sviluppare le competenze di data literacy tra insegnanti e studenti della scuola secondaria, è necessario analizzare i curricula attuali, attuare progetti di data literacy a scuola e focalizzarsi sui risultati dell'apprendimento. Individuare le principali sfide che insegnanti e studenti devono affrontare in questo processo assume un ruolo di primaria importanza. Questo documento presenta i risultati di ricerca dello studio pilota condotto nell'ambito dei progetti Data Literate e Dalfys - due progetti finanziati dall'UE che mirano a promuovere la diffusione delle competenze di data literacy nel contesto della scuola secondaria. I risultati mostrano un notevole interesse degli insegnanti e degli studenti a sviluppare competenze di alfabetizzazione dei dati, ma l'introduzione dell'alfabetizzazione dei dati nei curricoli tradizionali richiede risorse adeguate. Dovrebbero essere promosse soluzioni temporanee, come l'introduzione della data literacy in specifiche materie di studio, per colmare tempestivamente il gap esistente nello sviluppo di queste competenze.
