The MAZZINI Comprehensive Institute introduced a nEggs for the first cycle oral exam mode (which includes the five -year path of primary school and the three -year first grade secondary school), which transforms the pupil from a simple candidate to the protagonist of his own school and life experience. This novelty, approved by the collegial organs, represents an important step forward towards an idea of school that enhances personal growth and the ability to reflect on itself.
The main innovation consists in the presentation, by each candidate, of ansignificant experience for one’s growth, accompanied by a product or an artifact that witness its importance. Students thus have the opportunity to tell their path in an authentic and original way, becoming narrators of the most important stages of their training. The role of the teachers is fundamental in this process, which combines every pupil as a tutor, offering support and guide in the preparation of the interview. This personalized accompaniment allows students to enhance their experiences, develop a critical thinking and address the exam with greater awareness and safety. The oral interview, so conceived, is not limited to verifying knowledge, but becomes an opportunity to express ideas, passions and aspirations. It is a time when the pupil takes the floor, with the awareness of his potential and opens up to the possibility of sharing aspects of himself that go beyond the simple disciplinary content.
“In this context, the examination is configured as a real path of growth: the pupil learns to reflect on the most significant experiences, to relate knowledge and skills and to present himself in a mature and conscious way. He becomes an educational experience that enhances curiosity, creativity and ability to adapt, stimulating the analysis of himself and the communication of his emotions and objectives. With this proposal, the Mazzini Institute is confirmed as a school that Notions, but accompanies the students towards complete training and prepares them to become active and responsible citizens.
An approach that reflects the desire to promote full development, which includes disciplinary, social and personal skills. With the precious accompaniment of teachers, students learn to communicate effectively, to collaborate and actively participate in the life of the community. The Mazzini Comprehensive Institute confirms its commitment to build a school that really puts the experience and talent of each pupil at the center, recognizing the unique value of each path and providing the tools to face the challenges of the future with enthusiasm and awareness.
