There has been a forced innovation towards learning environments which was characterized by intensive use of technology determined by the pandemic crisis. As a result, improving advanced training has become a crucial concern in higher education. For this reason, university professors’ training and professionalization on the pedagogic, didactic and assessment areas imply a relevant action with potential impact on the university system. This research mainly focuses on the role of teachers’ metacognitive competence with particular attention to the use of technologies, educational evidence-informed strategies and innovative assessment methods. To this end, a questionnaire with three sections had been administered to 119 newly recruited university professors: TPACK, Didactic and evaluation strategies and MAI. Data analysis allowed to identify some useful factors to design faculty development initiatives for newly recruited professors and for improving the quality of university teaching.
La spinta all’innovazione verso ambienti di apprendimento caratterizzati da un uso intensivo della tecnologia, determinata dalla crisi pandemica, costituisce una questione strategica per lo sviluppo dell’alta formazione. In questa direzione, la formazione e professionalizzazione del docente universitario sul versante pedagogico-didattico-valutativo rappresenta un’azione rilevante con potenziale impatto sul sistema universitario nel suo complesso. Il focus specifico del presente contributo riguarda il ruolo della competenza metacognitiva del docente con particolare attenzione all’utilizzo delle tecnologie, delle strategie didattiche evidence-informed e di modalità innovative di valutazione. Lo strumento scelto, somministrato a 119 docenti universitari neo assunti, è articolato in tre sezioni: TPACK, Strategie didattiche e valutative e MAI. L’analisi dei dati ha permesso di indagare alcuni fattori utili alla programmazione di iniziative di faculty development specificatamente dedicate ai docenti neo assunti, finalizzate al miglioramento della qualità della didattica universitaria.

Abstract
There has been a forced innovation towards learning environments which was characterized by intensive use of technology determined by the pandemic crisis. As a result, improving advanced training has become a crucial concern in higher education. For this reason, university professors’ training and professionalization on the pedagogic, didactic and assessment areas imply a relevant action with potential impact on the university system. This research mainly focuses on the role of teachers’ metacognitive competence with particular attention to the use of technologies, educational evidence-informed strategies and innovative assessment methods. To this end, a questionnaire with three sections had been administered to 119 newly recruited university professors: TPACK, Didactic and evaluation strategies and MAI. Data analysis allowed to identify some useful factors to design faculty development initiatives for newly recruited professors and for improving the quality of university teaching.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
