Planning Competences In “new” High Schools: DidaSco Research Project

The present work shows the results of the first research & training project stage called I nuovi Licei alla prova delle competenze. Guida alla progettazione nel biennio (Assessing competence in New Licei. Planning two-year courses) in which 21 Licei (High Schools) in Apulia have been involved. The project aimed at designing a shared educational model among teachers for the first two-year courses. The project's main aim tried to overcome traditional, disciplinary and knowledge-centred teaching in favour of competence-based teaching in which every discipline contributes to the creation of multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary education by means of a methodology designed by a group of teachers.
