L’innovazione pedagogica e didattica nel sistema formativo italiano tra storia e attualità. Note sulla IV Settimana di Eccellenza dell’Università di Macerata

This contribution aims to present in a synthetic but exhaustive way the IV Week of Excellence’s work. This event, entitled Pedagogical and didactic innovation in the training system, took place from the 10th to the 14th of May 2021 and it was held online. The works were planned as a part of highly qualified educational activities proposed by the Department of Education, Cultural Heritage and Tourism of the University of Macerata under the project «3i4u – Innovation, Internationalisation, Inclusion for the University» (from 2018 to 2022), which is supported by the Italian program for Universities Excellence Departments (Law n. 232/2016, art. 1, codicils 314-338). The event provided a wide range of highly qualified seminars, most of all a national conference with History of Education scholars and researchers of great value from Italy and all over Europe, together with highly specialized workshops for undergraduates, graduated and PhD students. This Week of Excellence was attended by more than 40 speakers and also by about 200 listeners. It was an exceptional training opportunity.
