Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Forty-three years ago the Italian parliament passed a law (law 517 of 1977) that would have boasted Italy for the role of leading country in the area of inclusion. With that choice, Italy accepted to open up to diversity, to embrace it, to work with and for it, questioning the pedagogical community on what were the best practices to face this educational and social challenge. A choice that today bears fruit, in a context where diversity is normal (Canevaro, 2007, Ianes, 2006). A choice that we must defend in the name of all children and their right to education. The present book develops within this framework and is characterized by the desire to give voice to another nuance of diversity, often mistakenly considered as “good difference” and as such, not in need of targeted interventions: the Giftedness.”
Download or read book Alunni con BES Bisogni Educativi Speciali written by Dario Ianes and published by Edizioni Erickson. This book was released on 2013 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guarda il video di presentazione dell'opera (Libro + Software gestionale per i PDP e i PAI) Il 27.12.2012 è stata emanata la Direttiva Ministeriale “Strumenti d’intervento per alunni con Bisogni Educativi Speciali e organizzazione territoriale per l’inclusione scolastica”. In essa sono contenute alcune indicazioni e strategie precise che sono proprie della scuola italiana in ottica inclusiva, volte a consentire a tutti gli alunni, qualsiasi siano le loro difficoltà, il pieno accesso all’apprendimento. L’attenzione viene quindi estesa ai Bisogni Educativi Speciali nella loro totalità, andando oltre la certificazione di disabilità, per abbracciare il campo dei Disturbi Specifici dell’Apprendimento, lo svantaggio sociale e culturale, le difficoltà linguistiche per gli alunni stranieri, ecc. La direttiva sancisce quindi il diritto per tutti gli alunni che presentano queste tipologie di difficoltà/svantaggio di avere accesso a una didattica individualizzata e personalizzata. Le strategie, le indicazioni operative, l’impostazione delle attività di lavoro, i criteri di valutazione degli apprendimenti e i criteri minimi attesi trovano definizione all’interno del PDP – Piano Didattico Personalizzato dell’alunno. Questa nuova pubblicazione proposta da Erickson ha lo scopo di accompagnare i Dirigenti scolastici, gli insegnanti e i gruppi di lavoro interni alla scuola nella strutturazione di un percorso realmente inclusivo per il proprio contesto scolastico. Nel libro vengono quindi proposti, attraverso i contributi dei massimi esperti di didattica inclusiva: – suggerimenti utili per impostare percorsi educativo-didattici realmente inclusivi e volti a promuovere il pieno apprendimento di tutti gli alunni; – riflessioni di carattere teorico; – numerosi spunti di lavoro (anche inerenti la rilevazione dei BES e gli aspetti più strettamente legati alla valutazione e alle competenze in uscita); – proposte specifiche per alunni con Bisogni Educativi Speciali. Il nucleo centrale del testo è la stesura del PDP (Piano Didattico Personalizzato), che parte innanzi tutto da una visione di «classe inclusiva» per spostarsi solo successivamente sul singolo alunno, avendo sempre come cornice di riferimento la necessità di collocarsi all’interno di un ben preciso Piano Annuale per l’Inclusività. Il CD-ROM allegato contiene un software gestionale finalizzato a facilitare e velocizzare le attività gestionali di insegnanti e dirigenti, tramite preziose funzioni quali l'importazione, il salvataggio e il trasferimento dei dati mediante chiavetta USB. Il software è strutturato in due aree: 1. Creazione e gestione dei Piani Didattici Personalizzati degli alunni con BES L'area dedicata al Gruppo di Lavoro per l'Handicap Operativo (GLHO) o al Consiglio di classe per la scuola primaria, accedendo alla quale è possibile: - effettuare la valutazione dell'alunno (facoltativa) sulla base dell'approccio ICF-CY; - procedere alla stesura del PDP; - esportare le informazione immesse, realizzando così un documento sottoscrivibile dagli insegnanti, dal Dirigente e dalla famiglia. 2. Creazione/Gestione Piano Annuale per l'inclusività L'area che fornisce al GLI (Gruppo di Lavoro per l'Inclusione) le istruzioni per la redazione del Piano Annuale per l'Inclusività (PAI). Accedendo a questa sezione è possibile: - organizzare in maniera semplice ed efficace tutte le proposte per la programmazione inclusiva di classe avanzate dai GLHO che hanno utilizzato il software; - formalizzare la richiesta di risorse che il GLI deve presentare al Collegio docenti e all'Ufficio Scolastico Regionale. Requisiti di sistema per il CD allegato: - Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7 - Processore 1GHz o superiore, min. 1 GB di RAM Guarda il video di Dario Ianes Verso la didattica inclusiva: i Bisogni Educativi Speciali su base ICF-OMS
Download or read book Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy written by Susan M. Knell and published by Jason Aronson, Incorporated. This book was released on 1995-10-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive-Behavioral Play Therapy (CBPT) incorporates cognitive and behavioral interventions within a play therapy paradigm. It provides a theoretical framework based on cognitive-behavioral principles and integrates these in a developmentally sensitive way. Thus, play as well as verbal and nonverbal approaches are used in resolving problems. CBPT differs from nondirective play therapy, which avoids any direct discussion of the child's difficulties. A specific problem-solving approach is utilized, which helps the child develop more adaptive thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral therapies are based on the premise that cognitions determine how people feel and act, and that faulty cognitions can contribute to psychological disturbance. Cognitive-behavioral therapies focus on identifying maladaptive thoughts, understanding the assumptions behind the thoughts, and learning to correct or counter the irrational ideas that interfere with healthy functioning. Since their development approximately twenty-five years ago, such therapies have traditionally been used with adults and only more recently with adolescents and children. It has commonly been thought that preschool-age and school-age children are too young to understand or correct distortions in their thinking. However, the recent development of CBPT reveals that cognitive strategies can be used effectively with young children if treatments are adapted in order to be developmentally sensitive and attuned to the child's needs. For example, while the methods of cognitive therapy can be communicated to adults directly, these may need to be conveyed to children indirectly, through play activities. In particular, puppets and stuffed animals can be very helpful in modeling the use of cognitive strategies such as countering irrational beliefs and making positive self-statements. CBPT is structured and goal oriented and intervention is directive in nature.

Download or read book Il concetto di Bisogni Educativi Speciali BES e caratterizzazione dei disturbi specifici dell apprendimento DSA written by Serena Caracausi and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il presente lavoro affronta il concetto di Bisogni Educativi Speciali (BES) e Disturbi Specifici dell'Apprendimento (DSA). L'integrazione scolastica degli alunni con disabilità costituisce un punto di forza del nostro sistema educativo. La scuola italiana, infatti, vuole essere una comunità accogliente nella quale tutti gli alunni, a prescindere dalle loro diversità funzionali, possano realizzare esperienze di crescita individuale e sociale. La piena inclusione degli alunni con disabilità è un obiettivo che la scuola dell'autonomia persegue attraverso una intensa e articolata progettualità, valorizzando le professionalità interne e le risorse offerte dal territorio. Ogni alunno, con continuità o per determinati periodi, può manifestare Bisogni Educativi Speciali: o per motivi fisici, biologici, fisiologici o anche per motivi psicologici, sociali, rispetto ai quali è necessario che le scuole offrano adeguata e personalizzata risposta. In ogni classe ci sono alunni che presentano una richiesta di speciale attenzione per una varietà di ragioni: svantaggio sociale e culturale, disturbi specifici di apprendimento e/o disturbi evolutivi specifici, difficoltà derivanti dalla non conoscenza della cultura e della lingua italiana perché appartenenti a culture diverse. Nel variegato panorama delle nostre scuole la complessità delle classi diviene sempre più evidente. Quest'area dello svantaggio scolastico, che ricomprende problematiche diverse, viene indicata come area dei Bisogni Educativi Speciali. I Disturbi Specifici di Apprendimento invece interessano alcune specifiche abilità dell'apprendimento scolastico, in un contesto di funzionamento intellettivo adeguato all'età anagrafica. Sono coinvolte in tali disturbi: l'abilità di lettura, di scrittura, di fare calcoli. Sulla base dell'abilità interessata dal disturbo, i DSA assumono una denominazione specifica: dislessia (lettura), disgrafia e disortografia (scrittura), discalculia (calcolo). La Legge 8 ottobre 2010, no 170 riconosce la dislessia, la disgrafia, la disortografia e la discalculia quali disturbi specifici di apprendimento, denominati "DSA". Posto nelle condizioni di attenuare e/o compensare il disturbo, infatti, il discente può raggiungere gli obiettivi di apprendimento previsti.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a decade ago the concept of "design experiments" was introduced because of the belief that many of questions could not be adequately addressed by laboratory-based experiments. Since then, design-based research as a term has grown in popularity and significance. The core manuscripts of this special issue respond to the questions: What constitutes design-based research? Why is it important? What are the methods to carry it out? At the end of this issue, two strong commentaries situate this work and challenge the community with new questions and issues that must be answered if design-based research is going to help advance work in ways that others judge as worthwhile and significant.

Download or read book The Art Science of Learning Design written by Marcelo Maina and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an era defined by a wealth of open and readily available information, and the accelerated evolution of social, mobile and creative technologies. The provision of knowledge, once a primary role of educators, is now devolved to an immense web of free and readily accessible sources. Consequently, educators need to redefine their role not just “from sage on the stage to guide on the side” but, as more and more voices insist, as “designers for learning”. The call for such a repositioning of educators is heard from leaders in the field of technology-enhanced learning (TEL) and resonates well with the growing culture of design-based research in Education. However, it is still struggling to find a foothold in educational practice. We contend that the root causes of this discrepancy are the lack of articulation of design practices and methods, along with a shortage of tools and representations to support such practices, a lack of a culture of teacher-as-designer among practitioners, and insufficient theoretical development. The Art and Science of Learning Design (ASLD) explores the frameworks, methods, and tools available for teachers, technologists and researchers interested in designing for learning Learning Design theories arising from findings of research are explored, drawing upon research and practitioner experiences. It then surveys current trends in the practices, methods, and methodologies of Learning Design. Highlighting the translation of theory into practice, this book showcases some of the latest tools that support the learning design process itself.
