81792 - Didactics of Italian Literature (LM)

Learning outcomes

At the end of the course the student will be able to know and propose the didactic and academic resources of the Italian Literature, whose disciplinary contents will be valued for text analysis as well as for the literary history and the relationship between literature and society.

Course contents

The Didactics of Italian Literature is not another Italian Literature course but a course to teach Italian Literature in schools and in all places where it is required. From a distance or in presence, our job is to share as broadly as possible a literary tradition unique in the world and in some ways still unexplored.

1 Ego literature in different gender settings. The presence of the body from autobiography to correspondence, from the 16th to the 18th century.

2 Analysis of the text or the rhetorical, argumentative and stylistic strategies implemented between the interpretation of the classics and the hermeneutics of real life.

3 Didactics of Italian literature: from the frontal lesson to DAD. Field experiences from vocational colleges to high schools discussed in collaboration with school colleagues.

Lessons will take place online on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday from 17 to 19, starting from Monday 21 September to Wednesday 14 October 2020 with attendance procedures (Aula Pascoli Via Zamboni 32) from 19 October to the end of the course.

Assessment methods

The test will be carried out by oral question and interview, possibly supplemented by a multimedia teaching demonstration. Precisely the content of the course and the aims of the teaching make the exam the opportunity to highlight, with the skills acquired, the predisposition to the specific teaching of Italian literature.

Example of the evaluation grid:

24-27

Good knowledge of the bibliography and the content of the lessons. Critical language with some inaccuracies and not always congruous to the object, presence of excessive simplifications in the exposure.

18-23

Sometimes uncertain knowledge of the contents of the bibliography and lessons. Critical language in which generalizations and inconsistencies are present. Presence of simplifications partially inadequate to the content of the exhibition.
