Abstract

Il contributo presenta il processo di sviluppo di un'applicazione in grado di produrre artefatti visuali per la progettazione didattica, pensata in base ai principi del Learning Design e del Visual Design.

L'app DEPIT (Designing for Personalisation and Inclusion with Technologies) nasce da un'indagine per far emergere i bisogni dei docenti a livello di progettazione e si sviluppa in forma di generatore di Graphic Organizer condivisi tra docenti e studenti, in grado di reificare e sostenere il processo didattico in termini di organizzazione, orientamento, allineamento, coerenza tra macro e microprogettazione.

La sperimentazione condotta mette in evidenza la trasformatività dell'app prima, durante e dopo l'azione didattica e coinvolge tanto la disposizione all'apprendimento dei discenti, in termini di orientamento e di consapevolezza nei percorsi didattico-disciplinari, quanto la postura del docente, sia a livello di organizzazione e gestione del processo di insegnamento-apprendimento, sia di riflessività in azione e sull'azione.
