EXPERIMENTAL EDUCATION: MODELS AND PROCEDURES FOR ADULT EDUCATION 12 CREDITS LM 57
(objectives)
Starting from the empirical approach that characterises research in education, the course will teach students to:
- learn and understand lifelong learning procedures through the study of research on adult education;
- apply qualitative and quantitative research projects aiming at studying adult education;
- make autonomous judgements on the interpretation of the research results;
- be able to explain the results of research to specialists and non-specialists;
- study and learn in an autonomous way models and procedures for adult education.

(objectives)
The adult literacy laboratory is intended to enable students to deepen existing examples, tools analysis-methodologies-the elements necessary to the understanding of educational-pedagogical work characteristics to play with adult learners. The course also aims, through individual and small groups work, to develop students’ skills related to the design, formulation and revision of open-ended questions and formulated answers literacy assessment in adulthood. In particular, the laboratory aims to develop students ' knowledge and skills associated with the following contents:
Knowledge and understanding - getting to know the most relevant international comparative surveys on adult skills assessment; - identifying theoretical and methodological foundations of international comparative surveys on adult learning with specific reference to the literacy and to the definitions provided in the framework of investigations;
Applying knowledge and understanding - the preparation and administration of the questions (types of stimulus and response, administering paper and pencil and computer based, review mode, encoding open-ends); - understanding the results of the major international comparative surveys on adult skills assessment, with particular reference to the OECD survey PIAAC;
Learning skills - identifying the diachronic perspectives in the analysis of the data available on a worldwide scale in relation to the skills of the adult population (OECD, UNESCO, World Bank data collections and surveys); - identifying similarities or differences between IALS, ALL and PIAAC international surveys;
Making judgements - analyzing the the relationship between functional literacy and ICT at the national level: critical analysis of the impact of technology on literacy and how informal and non-formal learning in adulthood.

"Experimental Education. Models and procedures for adult education" is a course for the students of "SEAFC" master's degree and is composed of a basic course (36 hours of lessons, 6 ECTS), a laboratory (18 hours of lesson, 3 ECTS) and a seminar (18 hours of lesson, 3 ECTS). The course main objective is to teach students the theoretical and procedural aspects of research in adult education. Through the analysis of research in adult education, the course will focus on the historical and theoretical bases of experimental education from the origin until now; on the procedures for defining the research field, the methods and the data collecting tools, the data analysis and interpretation, the procedures for a critical revision of the hypotheses. The laboratory and the seminar are integral parts of the course. The first will focus on international research on adult literacy; the latter will be devoted to reading and commenting on a classical text on education. The whole course (lessons + laboratory + seminar) is worth 12 ECTS.
