Agenda 2030 dell’ONU, Obiettivo 4: Implementazione di principi teorici per un’Istruzione di Qualità nel processo di apprendimento/insegnamento

Abstract

This essay focuses on Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 of the UN 2030 Agenda, which aims at a “quality education”, an objective that the recent global pandemic has made even more challenging to achieve. All educational institutions, primarily universities, pursue this objective, setting up well-defined educational plans with clear learning pathways.

Starting from the seemingly controversial principle that “learning is hindered by teaching” (Widdowson, 2019), three relevant pedagogical practices are examined: Recovery, Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and Microlanguages, along with a brief reflection on Translation. The essay then enumerates and analyses key principles and theoretical areas, including the role of Artificial Intelligence.
