La Didattica Laboratoriale per la Costruzione di Competenza Matematica:una proposta sperimentale

From Kindergarten to High School many teachers are studying and exchanging experiences on the construction of common educational paths that lead to expand learning skills and acquire competence. The use of a lab context teaching environment provides that element of innovation in math teaching that goes in this direction Focusing on the active students’ protagonism, avoiding providing them with closed protocols and already pre-packaged rules, allows forcing the linearity and rigidity of which today math teaching is still predominantly characterized. How to help students learn how to make decisions, choose personal research paths, act consciously, collect and process data according to their own interpretation - evaluation and then discuss it with others, in terms of active listening? In this article, we try to answer this question by presenting a case study that involved teachers and students of nursery and primary school, in a lab teaching environment that allows developing and evaluating a conscious acquisition of even and odd number concepts.
