Assessment of motor skills in prospective support teachers for a barrier-free school Valutazione delle conoscenze motorie nei futuri insegnanti di sostegno per una scuola senza barriere

Starting from an analysis of the perceptual dynamics and the representations that are activated in front of a body with disabilities, and from a necessary crisis of mental schemes that can produce stereotyping, categorization and labeling, the paper reflects on the ways of valorizing the motor skills in an inclusive sense of support teachers in training, traditionally excluded from the learning assessment, starting from the activity carried out during the laboratory of Methods and Didactics of Motor Activities organized within the Specialization Course for support activities of the University of Reggio Calabria Mediterranea in the academic year 2018-2019.
