Learning Objectives
Themes
The national training course The Experience of Literature: from the Middle Ages to Contemporary Times and "Back Again", born from the collaboration between the University of Urbino Carlo Bo and the University of Macerata and under the patronage of SIFR Scuola, is structured into six online afternoon sessions. It offers an interdisciplinary pathway to deepen and enhance the skills needed to design teaching modules and pathways for literature education.
Dedicated to middle and high school teachers currently in service, the course features seminar-style meetings strongly oriented towards debate. These sessions focus on six distinct interpretations of the concept of "experience," bringing together experts in medieval Romance literatures, contemporary literature, geography, art, and music to engage in dialogue.
