Diventare tutor didattico! (POK)

Offered by Politecnico di Milano,
Diventare tutor didattico! (POK)

Strumenti pratici a supporto del tutor didattico in università. Qual è il compito di un tutor didattico in ambito universitario? Come si dovrebbe impostare il rapporto con gli studenti? Come si progetta un percorso che abbia tutte le potenzialità per supportare al meglio l’apprendimento degli studenti? “Diventare tutor didattico!” è utile per tutti coloro che dovranno svolgere, o stanno svolgendo, un’attività di tutorship e che sono alle prime armi nel mondo della didattica.

Il corso aiuta da una parte ad inquadrare il ruolo di tutor all’interno del contesto universitario e dall’altra fornisce gli strumenti logici e metodologici per progettare e gestire al meglio il percorso di insegnamento.
Per quanto riguarda i tutor che invece hanno già esperienza in ambito didattico, consigliamo il MOOC di POK “Progettare l’Innovazione Didattica” che fornisce gli strumenti di base per una buona progettazione didattica e spunti per impostare e gestire processi di apprendimento efficaci per poi proseguire nell’esplorazione delle frontiere dell’innovazione.

Il MOOC è composto da tre week.
Week 1 – Chi è il tutor?
Week 2 – Come imposto la mia attività di tutor?
Week 3 – Tutor e studenti internazionali
Nella prima week introdurremo il tema del ruolo del tutor all’interno del contesto universitario.
Attraverso una serie di quiz riflessivi ti aiuteremo ad inquadrare al meglio l’attività che andrai a svolgere e ad individuare i riferimenti organizzativi e gerarchici del tuo ateneo. In questa week metteremo in luce anche i vantaggi personali e lo sviluppo di competenze trasversali legati alle attività di tutorship didattica.
Nella seconda week affronteremo, invece, il tema della progettazione del percorso di tutorship, dedicando una riflessione specifica al primo incontro, spesso cruciale per l’impostazione dell’attività.
Scopriremo poi come il segreto di un bravo tutor sia mettere in campo processi di feedback costanti e supportivi. Vedremo quindi come fornire feedback efficaci sia sul piano del processo che delle performance. Proveremo poi a sciogliere alcuni dei dubbi che possono sorgere all’inizio o durante l’attività di tutorship.
Nella terza week approfondiremo, infine, il tema della multiculturalità legato all’attività di tutorship. In particolare vedremo alcune problematiche specifiche che gli studenti internazionali incontrano, e forniremo una serie di indicazioni pratiche su come gestire, all’interno del processo di tutorship, le difficoltà che gli studenti internazionali possono incontrare.

Applying to U.S. Universities (Coursera)

“It depends.” That is what you’ll hear when asking about the U.S. university admission process. With over 4,000 universities in the United States and no standard application system, the U.S. admission process can be confusing for everyone, but especially for students applying from other countries. This course will help international students (non-U.S. citizens) and non-native English speakers navigate the U.S. university admission process by offering practical information about the documents and pieces that make up a U.S. university application. More importantly, admission officers will discuss how they use those pieces to decide who is accepted and who is denied, so that you can understand the process beyond the pieces.
