LA DIDATTICA DELL'ITALIANO AD APPRENDENTI STATUNITENSI. PROGETTARE UN SILLABO

Abstract

La tesi di ricerca traccia un quadro dell’insegnamento dell’italiano agli studenti undergraduate statunitensi. Attraverso l’analisi della tradizione di studio e insegnamento delle lingue straniere negli Stati Uniti, si conosce il retroterra formativo di provenienza di questi studenti e, mediante la riflessione sui contenuti dei documenti ufficiali della didattica delle lingue, si individuano gli obiettivi della glottodidattica statunitense per l’educazione linguistica e culturale dei propri cittadini. Si affronta poi il tema dello study abroad mediante l’analisi di: dati sulle scelte degli studenti, programmi universitari statunitensi presenti in Italia, studi americani circa l’importanza delle percezioni degli studenti durante il processo di apprendimento. L’indagine condotta presso le classi di un Istituto americano di Milano, permette di delineare un profilo dello studente statunitense e di capire le sue aspettative sul corso e sul docente di lingua. Alla luce di tutte le osservazioni precedenti, si procede con la discussione della natura del sillabo in ambito statunitense e italiano, e si conclude con la progettazione di un sillabo adatto alle esigenze degli studenti statunitensi: la scelta di un sillabo interculturale rappresenta l’incontro delle tradizioni glottodidattiche, statunitense ed europea, e permette allo studente di sviluppare quelle competenze richieste dal mondo globalizzato del ventunesimo secolo.

The research explores didactic aspects of teaching the Italian language to American undergraduate students. In considering the tradition of foreign language education and the contents of the official existing frameworks for the teaching of languages in the United States, the research underlines the diverse educational backgrounds of American foreign language students who come to Italy in a study abroad program. The study abroad experience is discussed through data on students’ motivation to choose a study abroad program, and students’ perceptions about their language learning process while they’re in a foreign context. The survey conducted among Italian language students of an American Institute in Milan demonstrates the different academic and linguistic reality students encounter when they come to study in Italy, and their expectations on the course and on the teacher. The dissertation moves on the analysis of the format of the foreign language syllabus and discuss the differences between the American syllabus and the Italian syllabi: designing a culture-based syllabus is the key to improve students’ intercultural competence, in line with the purposes of the United States and European foreign language education program.
