Il saper gestire il proprio studio e la capacità di acquisire un metodo di studio efficace sono alla base del raggiungimento del successo formativo di ciascun alunno, in particolare per gli alunni con Bisogni Educativi Speciali. Il ruolo del docente diviene fondamentale per sviluppare metodologie e strumenti atti, da una parte, a valorizzare le potenzialità individuali e, dall’altra, massimizzare le diverse opportunità di apprendimento degli alunni, al fine di costruire ambienti e processi di apprendimento inclusivi. Questo articolo propone uno strumento didattico interattivo, digitale e inclusivo, sperimentato all’interno di una Scuola Secondaria di I grado. Lo studio è stato effettuato monitorando classi campione nell’intero percorso triennale nel periodo 2020-2023, utilizzando una griglia di osservazione compilata dagli insegnanti di sostegno. I risultati mostrano che il box interattivo e digitale è in grado di favorire la gestione dello studio individuale, accrescere l’autonomia, il senso di responsabilità e la competenza di “imparare ad imparare”, oltre che riflettere sull’importanza che i fattori ambientali hanno nel produrre sistemi educativi e scolastici migliori nell’ottica del ben-essere a scuola.

Abstract
Knowing how to manage one's own study and the ability to acquire an effective study method are the basis for achieving educational success for each student, in particular for students with Special Educational Needs. The role of the teacher becomes fundamental in developing methodologies and tools aimed at, on the one hand, enhancing individual potential and, on the other, maximizing the different learning opportunities of pupils, in order to build inclusive learning environments and processes. This article proposes an interactive, digital and inclusive teaching tool, tested within a middle school. The study was carried out by monitoring sample classes over the entire three-year period in the period 2020-2023 and involved the application of quantitative observation method using grids filled by the special needs teachers. The results show that the interactive and digital box is a tool that promotes the management of individual study, increasing autonomy, a sense of responsibility and the competence to "learn to learn”, as well as reflecting on the importance that environmental factors in producing better educational and school systems with a view to well-being at school.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
