Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide the basic elements of the pedagogic discourse, doing an in-depth study of some issues of great relevance. Starting from the results of the latest scientific research and from the challenges and the pitfalls of the twenty-first century education (the crisis of values, orientation and education), during the course we will try to highlight the centrality of education to deal with many current crisis and conflicts. After the analysis of some of the most significant proposals it will be possible to think over aims, methods and educational means that can improve the progress of civilization. In particular, the course will focus on education in a pluralistic society.
The course will be supported by specific exercises, which form an integral part of the examination test
