Per verificare la validità e l’efficacia di un’innovazione metodologica sulla promozione dicompetenza professionale in insegnanti in servizio, è stata realizzata una ricerca-azione, in continuità con un intervento sperimentale relativo all’implementazione dello spaced learning a scuola. Nel presente contributo sono analizzati e discussi gli esiti della ricerca-azione realizzata in cinque scuole primarie di Palermo, da settembre 2023 a giugno 2024. Abbiamo ipotizzato che 104 insegnanti, che progettano, valutano e riflettono sulla pratica dello spaced learning in classe, avrebbero migliorato la consapevolezza critica (designing, problem solving, decision making) e la padronanza nell’uso della nuova metodologia. La rilevazione dei dati ha privilegiato mixed methods: i metodi di ricerca quantitativa mostrano limiti quando si applicano a situazioni educative e didattiche. I risultati mostrano un interessante esercizio delle capacità attese tra gli insegnanti che hanno partecipato rispetto a quelli che non hanno preso parte alla ricerca valutativa. Pur trattandosi di una fase esplorativa, è possibile evidenziare alcuni effetti che la collaborazione con le parti interessate ha prodotto riguardo all’efficacia e all’efficienza del progetto, anche per apportare correttivi all’iniziativa e decidere come riproporla nei prossimi due anni.

Abstract
For checking the validity and effectiveness of a methodological innovation on the promotion of professional competence in in-service teachers, an action-research was carried out, in continuity with an experimental intervention regarding to the implementation of spaced learning at school. In this contribution, the results of the intervention research carried out in five primary schools in Palermo, from September 2023 to June 2024, are analyzed and discussed. We hypothesized that the teachers (n = 104), who plan, evaluate and reflect on the practice of spaced learning in the classroom, would have improved critical awareness (designing, problem solving, decision making) and mastery in the use of the technique. The data collection favored mixed methods; quantitative research methods show limitations when applied to educational and teaching situations. The results show an interesting exercise of the expected skills among teachers who participated compared to those who did not take part in the evaluation research. Although this is an exploratory phase, it is possible to highlight some effects, that the collaboration with the interested parties has produced regarding the effectiveness and efficiency of the project, also to make corrections to the initiative and decide how to propose it again in the next two years.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
