  • Music Education in Italian Schools from the Unification to Today
    Musica Docta. Rivista digitale di Pedagogia e Didattica della musica, pp. 91-103 NICOLA BADOLATO - ANNA SCALFARO Bologna MUSIC EDUCATION IN ITALIAN SCHOOLS FROM THE UNIFICATION TO TODAY This paper reviews the main stages in the history of Music Education in Italian schools from the country’s unification to today, providing a critical, reasoned discussion of some of the key themes in ministerial programmes, from 1860 to today. This reconstruction does not make any claim to provide a definitive systematization of, or even only exhaust, such a vast subject in the limited space of an article. More realistically, it aims at showing how both the technically-oriented idea of teaching that was typical of programmes in the first half of the 20 th century, and the lucid-evasive vision that emerged from the “protest” climate of the 1960s and 1970s, have impeded a serious, effective organization of the epistemological status of the discipline, an issue which remains unresolved as of today. 1. 1860 to 1923 The first set of rules produced in a united Italy was introduced by Legge Casati, passed by Royal Decree of the Kingdom of Sardinia on November 13 th , 1859 (no. 3725) and later extended to the Kingdom of Italy. The scope of school programmes is clearly defined by article 315, which lists first of all «religious teaching, reading, writing, basic arithmetic, the Italian language, and the rudiments of the metric system».1 There are no traces of music culture or music practice in the programmes: although they show a markedly cultural approach – less so in female schools, where teaching is reduced and simplified –, they reduce music education to its technical-performing aspects, thereby confining it exclusively to the academies, musical institutions and conservatories disseminated all over the territory.

  • Liceo Classico Is the Oldest and Most Distinguished Secondary School in the Republic of San Marino
    Liceo Classico is the oldest and most distinguished Secondary School in the Republic of San Marino. It was founded in 1883 and for almost one hundred years, until 1981, it has been the sole secondary school type of the Republic. The humanities course provides students with a wide understanding and a deep knowledge, ensuring a complete, all-round education, an open-minded, critical and flexible view of life. Studying Classics offers numerous rewards, improving analytical skills and logical reasoning – but, most importantly, focusing on the development of literacy levels and communication skills .The objective is to give students a unique insight into how ancient worlds have shaped their own world and through a wide range of evidence, make them aware of their cultural heritage. Thus, students will be able to think critically about their own contemporary world and will be well prepared for future challenges, and what’s more, they will have easy access to an unlimited variety of university studies. Together with a solid tradition in teaching, Liceo Classico is open to all kinds of new experiences. The reasonable number of students enables teachers to follow everyone with great attention and to create a familiar atmosphere in the classroom. It is a demanding course but also suitable for all abilities. In addition to classical studies students are provided a comprehensive education in many other subjects. The curriculum has been lately enriched with the increasing support of English language and scientific subjects such as Mathematics, Science, Information Technology and many extra curricular activities: ♦ A central part of the basic language syllabus includes the preparation for the English Cambridge Language certificates: PET and FCE.

  • Teaching and Learning in General Upper Secondary Education
    Published on Eurydice (https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/national-policies/eurydice) Curriculum, subjects, number of hours Branches of studies According to legislation in force (DPR 89/2010 [1]) , general upper secondary education lasts five years and is delivered by six types of liceo specializing in the following areas: arts (liceo artistico), classical studies (liceo classico), sciences (liceo scientifico), languages (liceo linguistico), music and dance (liceo musicale e coreutico), human sciences (liceo delle scienze umane). The liceo artistico offers the following programmes: figurative arts, architecture and the environment, design, audiovisual and multimedia design, graphics, set design. The first two years are the same for all branches. The liceo scientifico offers an option in applied sciences and the liceo delle scienze umane offers an option in social and economic studies. Competences in compulsory education The first two years of upper secondary education, whether undertaken in a general or vocational school, are compulsory. Thus, in order to ensure equal education to all students, the Ministry has defined the knowledge and competences that all students are expected to have acquired on completion of compulsory education. Knowledge and competences integrate the current upper secondary curricula, specific for each type of school. Knowledge and competences are organised into 4 'cultural areas': languages, mathematics, science/technology and history/social studies. Knowledge and competences are also the basis for building learning pathways aimed at acquiring key competences that can help students in adulthood and for lifelong learning. Key competences are: learning to learn, planning, communicating, collaborating and participating, acting autonomously, problem solving, creating connections and relations, acquiring and interpreting information (DM 139/2007 [2]).

Signs Of Success In Italian Schooling Abstract Italy’s secondary schools—the product of the class-based division of the education system around the time of Italy’s unification in 1861—are divided into three branches: the vocational school, the technical institute, and the lyceum. These three types of schools, their students, and their academic rigor are continuously discursively constructed as qualitatively distinct from one another. In accordance with these distinctions made between them on both a national and local level, students are differently attracted to and socialized to participate in the types of schooling associated with each. This dissertation draws on everyday sociolinguistic practices and emergent language ideologies

  • First Round (UCSC)
    THE POINT ON SEPTEMBER- DECEMBER TEST ILARIA TORZI BOLOGNA 18-01-2021 A BASIC PREMISE 1. IT WAS POSSIBLE TO GIVE THE TEST TO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, NOT UNIVERSITY STUDENTS. 2. IN ITALY THE MAJORITY OF TEACHERS USE THE RULE-TO-TEXT METHOD AND FOCUS ON THE TRANSLATION EXERCISE, IN ORDER TO READ-TRANSLATE THE AUTHORS. A MINORITY USE THE TEXT- TO-RULE METHOD, NOT FOCUSING ON TRANSLATION, BUT DOING EXERCISES MORE SIMILAR TO THOSE WE PROPOSE. A VERY SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENT THE EXPERIMENT IN THE SCHOOLS WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL: MANY TEACHERS SIGNED UP, ESPECIALLY IN THE LOMBARDY REGION BUT NOT ONLY THERE, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE TEACHERS HAVE BEEN TEACHING ONLINE FOR MONTHS AND THIS HAS PENALISED LEARNING. HOWEVER, PRECISELY BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENT TEACHING CONDITIONS, WHICH PENALISE ABOVE ALL THE POSSIBILITY OF TESTING TRANSLATION SKILLS, THE TEST ACHIEVED THE RESULT ALSO IN THE G-FORM FORMAT (A LOT OF ITALIAN SCHOOL USE G SUIT). PRAEAMBULA THE PRAEAMBULA WERE GIVEN: • IN THE SECOND YEAR OF THE CLASSICAL HIGH SCHOOL (“LICEO CLASSICO” IN DECEMBER ABOUT 215 HOURS OF LATIN IN TOTAL: 5 HOURS A WEEK FOR ABOUT 33 WEEKS A YEAR. TO MAKE A COMPARISON WITH UNIVERSITY COURSES: ABOUT ONE THIRD (70-75) DEDICATED TO THE EXPLANATION OF THE RULES) • IN THE SECOND YEAR OF THE SCIENTIFIC HIGH SCHOOL (“LICEO SCIENTIFICO” IN DECEMBER 130 HOURS OF LATIN IN TOTAL. 3 HOURS OF LATIN PER WEEK FOR ABOUT 33 WEEKS A YEAR. APPROXIMATELY ONE THIRD IS DEVOTED TO EXPLAINING THE RULES: 45) • IN THE SECOND YEAR OF THE HUMANITIES HIGH SCHOOL (“LICEO DELLE SCIENZE UMANE” THE SAME TIMETABLE AS THE SCIENTIFIC HIGH SCHOOL).
