Assessing and Sharing (technology-based) Educational Experiences

In this paper we present the "Learning4All" (L4ALL) project, which has the aim of developing knowledge about how technology and pedagogy influence the quality of educational experiences. Our approach is empirical rather than theoretical: instead of scavenging literature, we collect credible evidence from Italian teachers on the job who create innovation in schools using technology. The concrete result of the project will be an online repository of hundreds of experiences, carried out in classes of all levels of schooling, where technology was skillfully combined with pedagogical solutions to generate substantial educational benefits. A specific focus is on inclusion, i.e. detecting how diverse needs (for underperforming or over performing pupils) were considered. This paper describes the project approach, the investigation tools developed so far and how they were used.
