TABLE AND DEFINITION OF CONTENTS
The course aims to deepen and develop knowledge about the historical development of education and its main models:
- Principles of educational history: objects and methods.
- Education in history: examples of educational practices.
- The subjects of education: childhood and adulthood.
- The main educational models between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
- The places of education: between school and extra-school.
- Adult education: between old and new models.
The course consists of 2 modules:
- Module 1 – Principles of educational history
The objects and methods of historical educational research.

The course aims to enable students to acquire and deepen their knowledge of educational models developed in and for different contexts (family, school, out-of-school, work), stimulating and developing meta-reflective skills. Another educational aim of the course is to offer a series of information on online resources (videos, magazines, library sites, photographic archives, bibliographical repertories, etc.) that can be used, independently, as resources for training and use in the professional field.

In order to respond flexibly to the specific needs of each student, the lecturer reserves the right to recommend alternative or additional readings during the lessons and to students who ask for them.
Access to the final examination is (subject to) the completion of 2 e-activities for the students’ personal development in relation to the topics covered and which will be illustrated and explained by the lecturer.
The assessment of learning will take place through an oral interview on the course contents and the e-activities presented. The grade (min 18, max 30 with possible honours) is determined by the level of performance for each of the following dimensions of the oral interview: mastery of contents, appropriateness of definitions and theoretical references, clarity of argument, command of specialist language.
