INCLUSIVE LANGUAGE EDUCATION - 139036-M1

The course aims to offer an overview of concepts, references, and approaches for managing the plurilingual and multicultural classroom, with the aim of enabling students to:

• deconstruct stereotypes and prejudices related to linguistic issues;
• recognize and counter phenomena of linguistic exclusion, both at school and in society;
• design and implement teaching strategies for linguistic inclusion in the classroom and at school.

The objectives include the acquisition of:

• disciplinary knowledge concerning the national linguistic heritage, within the historical evolution of the various cultural multiplicities that characterize the territory and the formation of the class group;
• skills in language manipulation, with implications for teaching practice specific to early childhood and primary schools, functional to the progression of learning and to the pace and modes proper to each pupil, including in cases of specific learning disorders (SLD) or disabilities;
• the ability to select and propose teaching materials suited to each pupil's starting linguistic condition and to its evolution from an inclusive and relational perspective, as well as a tool for the development of thought and of the aesthetic-expressive dimensions of the person.
