Philosophy as a tool to train thinking skills in the logic of coding, but also as a tool to get students closer to civic education and innovate the didactics of other disciplines, or as a strategy to contrast youngsters’ linguistic impoverishment. But how should we teach it for it to have concrete educational value?

And as far as history is concerned, which are nowadays the opportunities teachers have to teach it in an increasingly active, dynamic and interdisciplinary manner?

These are some of the thinking paths on philosophy and history teaching which Didacta Fair Italy proposes in its fourth edition which is going to take palace entirely online from the next 16 to 19 March.

• 16 March – (1:30 pm – 3 pm) “Philosophy to teach civic education”
• 16 March – (6:30 pm – 8 pm) “PATHS – A Philosophical Approach to Thinking Skills: didactic innovation, teachers’ training, philosophy for all”
• 17 March – (6.30 pm – 8 pm) “Making history with the use of sources: possible transversal paths thanks to the use of the historical, artistic and cultural heritage in a participatory and laboratorial perspective”
• 17 March – (6:30 pm – 8 pm) “Teaching History with digital tools”
• 18 March – (4:30 pm) “Critical Thinking and Philosophy: PATHS approach”
• 18 March – (6:30 pm) “Analytical philosophy: a perspective for approaching coding and making as media educational proposals”
