Topic and Contents of the Book Series: The recent Ministery Decree (DM 616 of 10/8/2017) on the initial training and access system to the roles of secondary school teachers highlights the importance of providing future teachers of the ability to combine theory and practice, in order to keep up with the rapid renewal of methods that is a characteristic of the current school setting. More specifically, the Decree refers to a transitional and definitive regime in the organization of this course of study. The long and detailed opinion of the CUN, on which the Decree is largely based, points out that some competencies in the didactics of the various disciplines, essential for the formation of the future teachers, may be presently unavailable at some university sites, so that the universities are invited to use the years of the transitional regime to equip themselves with such skills or to strengthen them.
The editorial series Didaskein wishes, among other things, to provide tools for responding to this request, and for this purpose intends to promote research on issues and problematic nodes of the various disciplinary didactics. In addition to these theoretical reflections, the series also aims to gather materials and proposals already implemented in some school contexts, offering a number of homogeneous and autonomous volumes, divided by discipline, but also, in some cases, open to particular interdisciplinary themes, and open to the comparison with experiences from other countries. In any case, the challenge is to break down the fences dividing school education and university research.
The volumes are primarily intended for those who undertake the training path for access to the roles of primary and secondary school, and to the university teachers who will be engaged in the corresponding courses, but are also conceived as a tool for updating and enriching the professionalism of each teacher.
