Nasce HUB! Il nuovo ambiente interattivo e integrato per la didattica digitale: uno spazio in cui le risorse
digitali espandono e arricchiscono l’offerta del libro di testo.
HUB è progettato per facilitare la creazione di percorsi didattici originali e favorire innovative modalità di
apprendimento, permettendo inoltre ai docenti di gestire la classe e di monitorarne i progressi.
HUB Scuola è il centro di questo sistema: la piattaforma per lo studio e l’insegnamento che permette
di condividere oggetti digitali e aggregare contenuti multimediali disponibili in rete. Moltissime risorse e
tanti strumenti, tutti in un unico luogo: video, audio, mediagallery, mappe concettuali, verifiche interattive
e autocorrettive e un efficace motore semantico; un archivio virtuale completo e condivisibile, oltre a
contenuti interdisciplinari certificati. Tutti gli strumenti sono studiati per favorire una didattica inclusiva e
costruire percorsi disciplinari personalizzati.
Dalla piattaforma si accede al Libro Digitale: lo spazio pratico e intuitivo che stimola le dinamiche di
apprendimento, favorisce l’inclusione oltre a potenziare i risultati individuali.
I Contenuti Digitali Integrativi permettono anche di impostare percorsi didattici per favorire la didattica
capovolta con la metodologia della flipped classroom.

PER INIZIARE | PERCHÉ LA FLIPPED CLASSROOM?
Perché la Flipped
Classroom?
2007 Due professori di chimica in una scuola superiore nordameri-
cana si trovarono ad affrontare disagi che ogni insegnante La Woodland Park High School
ben conosce: subivano la difficoltà di non riuscire a esaurire di Woodland Park, Colorado.
le spiegazioni teoriche in modo adeguato a causa delle assenze
ripetute degli studenti e non riuscivano a portare a compi-
mento con profitto la parte esercitativa perché i concetti erano
spesso complessi e gli studenti, inevitabilmente, mostravano
velocità diverse nell’apprendere e nell’applicare quei concetti.
Con la semplicità e la concretezza di chi nella scuola vive
davvero, si affidarono a un semplice stratagemma: chiedere
agli studenti di arrivare in classe avendo già avuto un primo
contatto con l’argomento da affrontare. Tecnologia impiegata:
registrare le lezioni in classe, montarle e pubblicarle online.
Budget a disposizione: 50 dollari.
Nasceva così la Flipped Classroom.
2012 Divenne ufficiale con la pubblicazione sempre a cura di Jona-

than Bergmann e Aaron Sams, i due professori della nostra
storia, del primo “manuale”: Flip your Classroom: Reach Every
Student in Every Class Every Day (oggi disponibile in italiano).
Nel 2014, sulla spinta della concretezza che anima
il duo, il libro veniva arricchito da un Workbook.
2014 L’esperienza si è poi diffusa tra i colleghi insegnanti, giungendo

a creare un vero e proprio network, il Flipped Learning Network
(visitabile al sito: www.flippedlearning.org).
Proprio su questa piattaforma, il 12 marzo 2014, è stata notifi-
cata la definizione ufficiale di “Apprendimento capovolto”, qui
nella traduzione di Sergio Vastarella: L’apprendimento capovolto
è un approccio pedagogico in cui l’istruzione diretta si sposta dallo
spazio di apprendimento di gruppo allo spazio di apprendimento
individuale, e il risultante spazio di gruppo è trasformato in un
ambiente d’apprendimento dinamico, interattivo, dove l’educatore
guida gli studenti mentre loro applicano i concetti e s’impegnano
creativamente nella materia.
Qualcosa di più, insomma, che “guardare dei video a casa”...
E questo inevitabile spostamento, praticato dagli stessi padri

della Flipped, dalla tecnologia alla solidità didattica e alla rifles-
sione epistemologica, libera questa innovazione dalle accuse
di essere uno sciocco espediente e la riconnette a due dei
momenti più lucidi del Sapere pedagogico novecentesco: Maria
Montessori e Benjamin Bloom.

Da quanto detto fin qui, non possono destare sorpresa l’inte-

della Flipped Classroom. Si può solo aggiungere quanto segue.
Questo modello rappresenta in definitiva una soluzione effi-
cace e sostenibile per affrontare le due emergenze educative che
la Scuola italiana sta incontrando.

libera” non è altro che conseguenza dell’aver
affidato al lavoro a casa la trasmissione delle
nozioni di base.

Il ruolo
LE PERSONE | IL RUOLO DEL DOCENTE
del docente
In prima istanza, l’insegnante è un facilitatore che,
grazie alla propria capacità empatica, sa costruire rapporti
interpersonali “utili” e creare contesti di collaborazione
che favoriscono lo sviluppo armonico della persona
e un apprendimento sereno.
Il lavoro dell’insegnante prevede tradizionalmente un processo

incentrato su conoscenza e comprensione, obiettivi cognitivi
necessari ma che potrebbero non essere sufficienti per ogni
esigenza di apprendimento.
Il metodo basato sulla lezione frontale vincola la partecipazione
degli studenti durante le spiegazioni alle dinamiche del grup- Alcuni studenti possono rima-

per funzioni di sorveglianza e valutazione, quando sarebbe più
proficuo impiegarlo per motivare e responsabilizzare gli alunni.
Partendo dall’intuizione che il momento più delicato del percorso

didattico non sia quello dell’accesso ai contenuti bensì quello della loro
applicazione e rielaborazione, l’insegnamento capovolto può rappre-
sentare un’occasione per ridefinire il ruolo del docente, valorizzandone
le doti relazionali.

LE PERSONE | IL RUOLO DEL DOCENTE
Il docente si avvicina a un più profondo ruolo di educatore,
che “tira fuori” da ogni studente le sue potenzialità più che

Nella classe capovolta l’assimilazione dei contenuti
è individuale e la loro rielaborazione avviene all’interno
del gruppo, dove può essere efficacemente coordinata dalla

le possibilità offerte dal lavorare in gruppo e con la guida

Applicare i concetti appresi a problemi concreti, da risolvere attraverso

la cooperazione con il gruppo dei pari, è un ottimo modo per sviluppare
competenze operative e per esercitare lo spirito di iniziativa, la capacità
di comunicare, l’attitudine alla creatività.

più efficienti della lezione frontale.
In questo modo la scuola mette a frutto la familiarità degli
studenti di oggi con la tecnologia e con le modalità di relazione
ai contenuti che questa incoraggia. Multimedialità, simultaneità,
interdisciplinarità, interattività.
È importante tuttavia che il focus didattico sia sempre mante-

nuto, e che in altri termini “rovesciare la lezione” non si
traduca in un pretesto per evitare i compiti a casa: per questo
è opportuno che il docente comunichi sempre chiaramente
allo studente qual è il suo ruolo, tenendosi pronto a modificare
la rotta in base ai segnali che riceve in ritorno.

La decisione di applicare il modello flipped ad alcune unità
di apprendimento comporta una riprogrammazione delle
unità stesse: la prospettiva “capovolta” non implica infatti
soltanto una sostituzione automatica, ma una più profonda
ristrutturazione delle attività.

Episodi di
Apprendimento Situato
Mentre la Flipped Classroom non è di fatto che una tecnica,
gli Episodi di Apprendimento Situato (EAS) recuperano
ricchezza teorica e complessità pedagogica, al contempo
delineando un approccio alla didattica digitale che tenga
insieme innovazione tecnologica e centralità dell’insegnante.
In linea con la didattica capovolta, anche il concetto

di EAS, teorizzato da Pier Cesare Rivoltella, prevede
una struttura tripartita:

Come spiega lo stesso Rivoltella:

Siamo in un frangente storico in cui, probabilmente, si è esaurita la spinta,
perfettamente controbilanciata, del formalismo istruzionale da una parte
e del costruttivismo democratico dall’altra. Il primo ha sempre risposto al
mandato di riproduzione culturale che la società ha fin dalla sua invenzione
assegnato alla scuola […] ma ha ben presto finito per mostrare la corda: rigi-
dità dei programmi, centralità della lezione frontale, incapacità di catturare
l’attenzione dell’alunno, scarsa profondità degli apprendimenti, sono alcuni
dei limiti che a più riprese tanto la teoria che la pratica di scuola ne hanno
evidenziato. D’altra parte, il costruttivismo democratico, se ha scardinato la
centralità del libro e del maestro favorendo la collaborazione, la condivisione
delle risorse, la costruzione partecipata della conoscenza, ha finito a sua
volta per cadere in una serie di equivoci: la relativizzazione dell’importanza
del contenuto, la convinzione che sia sufficiente “fare cose” in classe perché

tica sta indicando vie intermedie praticabili tra questi estremi, che siano in
grado di mantenere la significatività dell’intervento dell’insegnante e allo
stesso tempo di favorire l’apprendimento attivo dello studente […]. Ma cosa
si richiede all’insegnante perché sia possibile approfittare in classe delle
opportunità offerte dalle nuove tecnologie e dai media digitali?
Ci limitiamo a tre indicazioni:

la tentazione la punteggiatura il cambiamento
dell’arrocco
Nel gioco degli scacchi l’arrocco è la mossa con cui si prova a proteggere
il re scambiandolo di posto con la torre. L’insegnante spesso fa altrettanto
1 nei confronti delle tecnologie. Sentendosi sotto attacco, percependo
che l’accettazione della sfida del nuovo gli comporterebbe troppa fatica,
si mette sulla difensiva. […]
10

Ora, nella situazione canonica dell’insegnamento tradizionalmente inteso,
l’insegnante punteggia la comunicazione didattica comprendendo la diffi-
2 coltà dei ragazzi ad apprendere o a sviluppare curiosità e interesse per
l’acquisizione del dato culturale come una loro specifica mancanza: ma il
problema potrebbero essere le pratiche dell’insegnante. […]
Il cambiamento non si produce miracolosamente, magari grazie al “techno-

logical push”, alla “spinta” che proviene dall’introduzione della tecnologia.
[…] In definitiva, lo sforzo che all’insegnante si richiede è uno sforzo di

nari nei nuovi alfabeti della cultura. Si tratta di un compito che da sempre
qualifica il lavoro del docente: occorre non smettere di svolgerlo proprio nel
momento in cui ce ne sarebbe maggior bisogno.

Il lavoro
I CONTENUTI | IL LAVORO IN CLASSE
in classe
La terza fase della lezione capovolta, dopo il riscaldamento
e il lavoro a casa dello studente, si sviluppa in classe.
È il momento in cui il lavoro personale confluisce
nel gruppo e acquista un senso più stabile attraverso
il confronto e l’applicazione concreta di quanto assimilato.
Il lavoro in classe si può introdurre in diverse modalità:

16

Restituzione
Il passaggio preliminare sarà testare la reale comprensione
dei contenuti attraverso una verifica dello studio individuale.
Un riepilogo che riesamini i punti principali degli argomenti
trattati servirà al docente per soffermarsi sugli aspetti
equivocati o che ritiene più complessi; nella stessa fase
risponderà a tutte le domande dei ragazzi.
La restituzione del lavoro a casa si può realizzare in diversi modi:
Domande mirate

le recenti acquisizioni. possono per esempio seguire
alcune domande di approfondi-
mento puntuale.
Spiegazione sintetica
Si può chiedere a uno degli studenti di spiegare sinteticamente

ai propri compagni, in un tempo prestabilito, i contenuti della
videolezione.
Scrittura di un breve paragrafo
Tutti gli alunni possono essere sollecitati a scrivere un breve

paragrafo per definire l’argomento del video: confrontando
gli elaborati emergeranno diversi punti di vista sui contenuti
e differenti modi di recepirli.
Mappa concettuale e Mappa mentale
Attraverso una ricapitolazione collettiva la classe può essere

stimolata a organizzare le informazioni apprese. p. 13
Presentazione
Dividendo gli studenti in piccoli gruppi, l’insegnante può chie-

dere di inserire i contenuti studiati in una breve presentazione
(attraverso PowerPoint o strumenti analoghi): ogni gruppo
sceglierà poi un portavoce incaricato di esporre la presenta-
zione all’intera classe.
17

Attivazione
Si potrà quindi attivare lo studio svolto a casa chiamando
gli studenti a svolgere delle attività collaborative, su cui
saranno alla fine valutati: li si stimolerà contestualmente
a far proprio il metodo dell’apprendimento cooperativo.
La classe viene suddivisa in piccoli gruppi, che possono essere

omogenei o eterogenei a seconda degli obiettivi didattici. Per livello, caratteristiche perso-
nali e attitudini relazionali.
Compiti più impegnativi per esempio possono essere assegnati
a un gruppo formato in base alla buona padronanza dell’unità
di studio; mentre gruppi misti faranno emergere interazioni di
tipo tutor-allievo tra studenti con diverso rendimento, favo-
rendo, per competenze diverse, il progresso di entrambi.
Si descrive poi a ogni gruppo l’attività richiesta, cercando di

definire in dettaglio sia il risultato atteso sia i ruoli di ciascun
componente: per rendere le dinamiche di gruppo efficaci ai
fini dell’apprendimento è per esempio utile indicare il respon-
sabile; chi è incaricato di coordinare la partecipazione di tutti;
chi di far emergere i punti di debolezza del lavoro; chi invece di
programmarne il flusso.
La prospettiva dell’apprendimento cooperativo mira a:

Rubriche
LA VALUTAZIONE | RUBRICHE DI VALUTAZIONE
di valutazione
Le rubriche di valutazione sono tabelle sinottiche
che descrivono una serie di variabili: servono a esplicitare
le dimensioni delle competenze su cui si vuole lavorare
e a guidare l’analisi dei risultati raggiunti.
La preventiva definizione dei criteri di giudizio consente

all’insegnante di focalizzare l’osservazione sugli aspetti rile-
vanti e fornisce agli studenti delle indicazioni trasparenti sulle
evidenze che verranno considerate.
Qui di seguito si propongono tre modelli di rubriche

di valutazione:
Il primo è generale e si riferisce al metodo

dell’apprendimento cooperativo.
Il secondo è appropriato se il compito assegnato

è un’attività di scrittura.
Il terzo è adatto ad un’attività di ricerca

guidata in rete.
Si possono naturalmente studiare delle rubriche di valutazione

per altri scopi specifici.
Come ad esempio:
l’elaborazione strumento di cui recentemente

in forma visuale comprenderanno sia la chiarezza
della parte testuale sia la cura
dell’aspetto grafico).

in classe come la proprietà di linguaggio,
la padronanza dei contenuti,
la capacità di catturare e mantenere

una bacheca
Organizzare visivamente i contenuti è una strategia
estremamente utile sia per lo studio e la memorizzazione
sia per l’analisi e la rielaborazione dei concetti
in prospettiva collaborativa.
Alcuni programmi molto intuitivi, che l’insegnante può

suggerire agli studenti oppure utilizzare direttamente in classe,
permettono di creare delle bacheche virtuali in cui i materiali
testuali possono essere arricchiti da immagini, audio, video,
collegamenti.

Come realizzare
GLI STRUMENTI | COME REALIZZARE UN SITO
un sito
Dato che l’insegnamento capovolto prevede la consultazione
autonoma e asincrona del materiale didattico da parte degli
studenti, è fondamentale stabilire in modo chiaro e univoco un
luogo accessibile a tutti in qualunque momento dove archiviare,
aggiornare e integrare le risorse necessarie per lo studio.
Una possibile soluzione è quella di realizzare un proprio sito Ambiente di deposito: per
depositare i contenuti assegnati

Creare un sito è diventata un’operazione alla portata di tutti,

Gli strumenti digitali si dimostrano estremamente
funzionali alla diffusione dei materiali da parte
dell’insegnante: in modo veloce, gratuito, ecologico
e pressoché illimitato è possibile condividere online
i documenti più vari.
Non solo: nella classe capovolta anche gli studenti realizzano

elaborati di diverso tipo, che attraverso i servizi
di archiviazione virtuale possono essere messi in comune,
lavorati e valutati collettivamente.

LESSON PLAN | FLIPPED LESSON 4 IL FUTURO
Flipped lesson plan -
4 Il futuro
Subject Area: English
CEFR Level: A2-B1
Unit Topic: Il futuro
Objective: using future tenses (present continuous, be going
to, will) in everyday situations; practising basic language for
phone calls, making and reacting to invitations.
Time Estimate
Preparation (class): : 20 minutes
Home: 30 minutes
Class: 1 period
Brief Description of Activity

At home, students will watch a video which introduces the target grammar
structures, do a comprehension exercise, complete a mind map and fill in a
learning diary. Then in class, in pairs, they will check understanding (two
exercises) and use the target structures in a speaking activity. Finally, in
pairs, they will role play a phone call to make and react to invitations.

Cognitive Objectives
Several elements of Bloom’s taxonomy are touched upon with this lesson.
Students will be:
1. Evaluating
The learning diary will give students an opportunity to evaluate their
learning process.
2. Analysing
In pairs, students will analyse different communicative situations in order to
use the target structures correctly.
3. Applying
Students will need to apply the target structures both in exercises and in a
role-played phone call.
4. Understanding
Completing a mind map after watching the video will lead to greater student
understanding.
5. Remembering
Doing comprehension exercises while watching/reading and interacting
in class in an authentic situation will help students remember the target
structures and language.
Materials Needed
›› Internet access and HUB Young to watch video
›› Student worksheet 1 (at home)
›› Student worksheet 2 (in class)
›› Role cards
›› Learning diary questions (see p. 35)
›› Evaluation grid (see p. 36)
In class
The previous day

1. Briefly describe the activity and explain their home assignment. Tell
students that they will watch video Be going to e present continuous at
home. Recommend following the instructions closely and repeating the
expressions until they are confident.
2. Hand out photocopies of worksheet 1, learning diary and evaluation grid
or direct students to online learning platform.
3. Read the five learning diary questions (see p. 35). Share and explain
evaluation criteria (see p. 36).
34
33_42_Flipped.indd 34 03/02/17 16:05

At home
Students watch video Be going to e present continuous at home at twice. After

their first viewing, they do a T/F comprehension exercise and watch the
video again to check their answers. Then they complete the mind map and
answer the learning diary questions in their notebooks.
Learning diary
What new grammar structures and vocabulary did I learn?
What did I learn to do?
What problems did I have?
Is what I learnt interesting or useful? Why?
How can I use what I learnt in real life?
The learning diary may offer an excellent opportunity to introduce the

Cornell note taking system as shown in the template below.
In class
Review (whole class)

Check for student understanding through observation, discussion of mind
map and questions (learning diary).
Activation (pair work)

Put students into pairs and hand out photocopies of worksheet 2. Move
around the classroom to monitor pair work. While students are doing exer-
cises 1-2, check for student understanding. You may wish to refer weaker
pairs to the grammar notes on page 167 of the textbook New Get Inside
Language.
In exercise 3 students ask and answer some basic questions about their fixed
plans, intentions and predictions about their future. Monitor pair work,
encourage participation and help with difficult vocabulary.
You may want to use the follow-up questions in exercise 3 for a whole class
activity.
35
33_42_Flipped.indd 35 03/02/17 16:05

Consolidation
• When students have completed worksheet 2, hand out the role cards
for the role play activity. If you can, put pairs of chairs back to back so
that students can’t see their partners’ faces or gestures. If you can’t, ask
students to stand back to back. Go over the basic language for phone calls
printed on the role cards and help students with difficult
vocabulary during preparation time (3 minutes). While students are role
playing, monitor and note mistakes or interesting language for discussion
afterwards.
• Set page 168 as homework for weaker students and page 169 for more
confident students.
Debriefing and self-evaluation

Students’ effort should be recognised and praised in order to build
confidence and a sense of achievement regarding a particular topic.
Students/Groups can use the grid provided for self-evaluation and discuss
it with the teacher.
Evaluation
You may use the evaluation grid provided to grade individual or group
performances. The grid offers a maximum score of 20 points and takes
into consideration the following elements: cooperation, cognitive skills,
communicative skills. The grid can be adapted and the score can be allocated
according to the part you wish to prioritise.
