ITAL 27.04 The Revolutionary Classroom. Lessons from Great Italian Educators

Great educators continue to speak to us long after they are gone. This course explores the values and lessons of visionary Italian educators. From Maria Montessori’s child-centered approach to Don Milani’s focus on social justice, Gianni Rodari’s imaginative storytelling, and Alberto Manzi’s educational television—we will examine how their ideas reshaped education. Through readings, films, and hands-on projects, we will reflect on their relevance in the classroom and beyond today.
