Guida di orientamento alla scuola superiore con informazioni sui vari tipi di: liceo classico; liceo scientifico; liceo artistico; liceo musicale e coreutico; liceo linguistico; liceo delle scienze umane Torna su 1 ORIENTAMENTO LICEO CLASSICO Il liceo classico prevede lo studio del latino e del greco, ma anche di tante altre materie che ti forniscono una conoscenza ampia. A cosa serve Il liceo classico fornisce una conoscenza culturale ampia sia di tipo umanistico che scientifico. Lo scopo di questa scuola è insegnare ai propri studenti le origini e la storia della civiltà occidentale e del suo pensiero partendo dallo studio della civiltà greca e romana per arrivare ai giorni nostri. Quali materie Le materie affrontate nei cinque anni di studio sono italiano, storia, matematica, fisica, scienze, filosofia, storia dell’arte e lingua e letteratura straniera, ma le due materie che caratterizzano di più questa scuola sono lingua e letteratura latina e greca antica. 2 Cosa insegna I diplomati che escono da questo liceo sono preparati sulla storia della civiltà e del pensiero occidentale, conoscono bene la lingua italiana e sanno comprendere e tradurre testi in greco antico e in latino. Inoltre gli studenti del liceo classico imparano a riflettere in modo critico sulla realtà contemporanea e sanno esprimere il loro pensiero argomentandolo in modo efficace. Quando sceglierlo Scegli il liceo classico se sei interessato a conoscere le origini della civiltà occidentale, se vuoi capire come si è sviluppata la cultura contemporanea e se vuoi crearti una cultura di tipo “universale” che ti faciliterà negli studi universitari. Le prospettive future Il diploma di liceo classico permette di accedere alle facoltà universitarie di tipo umanistico come Storia, Filosofia, Lettere, Giurisprudenza, Scienze della comunicazione, Scienze politiche ecc., ma anche di tipo scientifico come Medicina, Matematica, Fisica, Ingegneria ecc. A coloro che non intendono seguire un corso di studio universitario il diploma di liceo classico permette di partecipare a tutti i concorsi pubblici che non richiedono un diploma di laurea. ECCO LE MATERIE DEL LICEO CLASSICO E LE ORE SETTIMANALI (FONTE MIUR ) Lingua e letteratura italiana : 4 ore a settimana per 5 anni Lingua e cultura latina: 5 ore a settimana nel biennio, 4 ore nel triennio Lingua e cultura greca: 4 ore a settimana nel biennio, 3 ore nel triennio Lingua e cultura straniera : 3 ore a settimana per 5 anni Storia : 3 ore a settimana nel triennio Storia e Geografia: 3 ore a settimana nel biennio Filosofia : 3 ore a settimana nel triennio Matematica : 3 ore a settimana nel biennio (con informatica), 2 nel triennio Fisica : 2 ore a settimana nel triennio Scienze naturali : 2 ore a settimana per 5 anni (biologia, chimica, scienze della Terra) Storia dell’arte: 2 ore a settimana nel triennio Scienze motorie e sportive: 2 ore a settimana per 5 anni Religione cattolica o Attività alternative: 1 ora a settimana per 5 anni 3 Torna su ORIENTAMENTO LICEO LINGUISTICO 4 Torna su A cosa serve Il liceo linguistico propone un percorso di studi che unisce sia le materie umanistiche che scientifiche, ma che si concentra in particolare sull’insegnamento delle lingue e delle letterature straniere. Quali materie In questo liceo si studiano le materie presenti anche negli altri licei: italiano, matematica, storia, geografia, latino, filosofia, scienze, religione e storia dell'arte, ma in più si studiano tre lingue straniere. Dal terzo anno di liceo una materia è insegnata in lingua straniera e a partire dal quarto anno diventano due. Cosa insegna Questa scuola fornisce un'ampia cultura di base, ma insegna soprattutto a scrivere e parlare in tre lingue diverse e a conoscere la letteratura e la cultura di altri popoli. Prospettive future Il diploma di liceo linguistico permette di accedere a qualsiasi corso di studi universitario, ma fornisce un vantaggio soprattutto a chi vuole iscriversi ad una facoltà di lingue. Chi non vuole proseguire gli studi può trovare lavoro nell'ambito del turismo e in altri campi in cui è richiesta la conoscenza delle lingue. Inoltre è possibile accedere a tutti i concorsi in cui non è richiesto un diploma di laurea.

Ci sono diverse tipologie di corso: liceo scientifico tradizionale, quello con opzione “Scienze applicate” e il liceo scientifico con indirizzo sportivo. Le materie Gli studenti che frequentano questo tipo di scuola studiano molta matematica, fisica e scienze naturali (come biologia e chimica). A queste materie si aggiungono: lingua e letteratura italiana, latino, storia dell’arte, una lingua straniera, storia, filosofia, geografia, ginnastica e religione. Chi sceglie di frequentare un liceo scientifico con indirizzo Scienze applicate al posto del latino studierà informatica e affronterà laboratori pratici. 6 Gli indirizzi Esistono due tipologie di indirizzo: Liceo scientifico: presenta un programma che equilibra le materie umanistiche e quelle scientifiche. Liceo scientifico con opzione Scienze applicate: offre un programma più incentrato sulle materie scientifiche e sui laboratori pratici. Cosa insegna I diplomati che escono dal liceo scientifico hanno una preparazione sia di tipo umanistico che scientifico. Conoscono la storia del pensiero umano, le relazioni fra vita quotidiana e scienza, sanno utilizzare bene gli strumenti di calcolo, sono a conoscenza degli sviluppi della tecnologia in ambito scientifico, e conoscono i contenuti delle scienze fisiche e naturali. Quando sceglierlo Puoi scegliere di iscriverti a questo tipo di liceo se vuoi avere una cultura vasta e in particolar modo se ti piace osservare la realtà in modo tecnico e scientifico e ti interessa studiare la matematica e le scienze. Le prospettive future Il liceo scientifico ti dà una preparazione adatta ad affrontare tutti i tipi di corsi di studio universitario. In particolare però ti fornisce una base solida per affrontare le facoltà come Fisica, Matematica, Ingegneria e Medicina. Torna su A chi non ha intenzione di proseguire gli studi questo diploma permetterà di lavorare in laboratori scientifici e di partecipare a tutti i concorsi pubblici nei quali non è richiesto il diploma di laurea.

Education is free and compulsory for all children between the ages of 6 - 16. Education in Italy It is divided into five stages: - Nursery school (scuola dell'infanzia), - Primary school (scuola primaria), - Lower secondary school (scuola secondaria di primo grado), - Upper secondary school (scuola secondaria di secondo grado) - University (università). Italy has both public and private education systems. Curriculum All state schools follow the same National Curriculum. PRIMARY SCHOOL Primary school, is commonly preceded by three years of non-compulsory nursery school . It lasts five years. Until middle school, the educational curriculum is the same for all pupils: although one can attend a private or state-funded school, the subjects studied are the same. The students are given a basic education in Italian, English, Maths, Natural Sciences, History, Geography, Social studies, Physical education and visual and musical arts. Secondary education Secondary education is divided in two stages: - Scuola secondaria di primo grado (Lower secondary school), or Scuola media, which corresponds to the Middle School grades; - Scuola secondaria di secondo grado (Upper secondary school), or Scuola Superiore, which corresponds to the high-school level. Scuola secondaria di primo grado Lower secondary school The Scuola secondaria di primo grado lasts three years (from age 11 to 13), and provides further education on the subjects studied at the scuola primaria, with the addition of Technology and a language other than English (Spanish or French).

  • 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).

  • IB Handbook 2017-18
    The International School of Florence International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) Handbook 2017/18 The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme is a rigorous pre-university course of study, leading to examinations, that meets the needs of the highly motivated and academically-inclined secondary school student. Designed as a comprehensive curriculum that allows its graduates to fulfill requirements of the various national systems of education, the IB is based on the pattern of no single country. It provides students of different linguistic, cultural and educational backgrounds with the intellectual, social and critical perspectives necessary for the adult world that lies ahead of them. The educational philosophy of the International Baccalaureate Organization is found in their mission statement: “The International Baccalaureate Organization aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end the IBO works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.” Head of School: Debra Williams-Gualandi Upper School Principal: Helen Stanton IBDP Coordinator: Jason Blackstone CAS Coordinator: Susan Yiannakis College Counselor: Francis McIvor 2 International Baccalaureate Programme at ISF The IB Diploma is an extremely demanding course both for teachers and students alike. It is designed for students who are hard-working and self-motivated and no amount of teaching can replace these vital ingredients for success. It is expected that students take responsibility for themselves and realize that no one is going to complete work for them.

  • The Future of Classics
    [Expositions 5.2 (2011) 14-17] Expositions (online) ISSN: 1747-5376 Classics in Italy and Great Britain BARBARA GRAZIOSI Durham University My contribution focuses on classical literature, and offers a brief discussion of its readers in Italy and Great Britain. I start, however, with a more general observation about that literature. Homer, the central author of the classical canon, has continuously featured in education for over 2,600 years. Xenophanes observed, in the sixth century BCE, that “from the beginning everyone learnt from Homer” (fr. 10 DK): we can now trace the history of Homeric education from Xenophanes to the schools of Athens (cf. Aristophanes, fr. 233 K–A), the library of Alexandria in Lower Egypt, the first Latin translation by the teacher Livius Andronicus, the scholarly commentaries and notes produced in the monasteries of Byzantium, the (largely disastrous) efforts of Boccaccio and Petrarch to establish the first chair of Greek in Florence, and the school and university programs that have followed since. Homer’s Iliad has been translated into all major languages worldwide: Young1 offers a catalogue of Homeric translations, from the editio princeps to the year 2000. The catalogue, though not quite as complete as he claims, offers a precious starting point for considering the geography as well as the history of Homeric readers. What emerges, of course, is the extraordinary status of the Iliad and the Odyssey as texts that were, and are, relentlessly passed on – not just across generations, but also across linguistic, cultural and political barriers of all kinds. There are at least two perspectives from which to view the extraordinary status of classical literature.
