The expansion of the education in design in Italy. A comparison with the European frame

In a framework where Architecture Schools are seeing sharp declines in Italy due to reduced numbers of new enrolments and a general crisis of vocation and opportunities, there is a parallel phenomenon of growth in the number of institutions and training offers in the field of design; the proliferation of design schools is a phenomenon recognizable not only on the Italian landscape, but also in the whole panorama of the new international training “market.” This contribution examines on what foundational theoretical and practical bases the most advanced training models in the field of design

The Synergy between Innovative Didactics and the Third Mission to Integrate the Three University Missions

The article focuses on the relationship between Innovative Didactics and the Third Mission, two central missions offered by universities in recent years.

This paper presents the first results of an exploratory research involving university teachers trained to carry out innovative didactics in five mega-universities in Italy. It is the first phase of a wider project focused on developing a virtuous circuit across the three university missions.

Identikit del cattivo maestro. Retorica e fisiognomica nella lettera 52 di Seneca
