I minori stranieri: tra famiglia e scuola in prospettiva pedagogica

The present paper focuses on foreign minors: between family and school in a pedagogical perspective. Themes and problems are presented in four main areas: the foundational framework of interculture in a pedagogical perspective; the family as the main observatory and migration project, characterized by development and education tasks involving all its members, with particular attention to their roles and functions, and the role of family and parenting support services; the processes of education / literacy and socialization / education as practices that affect the school curriculum (in its different orders and degrees), addressing also the issues of language and work as the main means of cultural and social integration and inclusion; the professional figures (in initial training and in-service), with specific reference to the educational care provided by teachers, socio-pedagogical professional educators and pedagogists. The paper adopts the perspective of general and social pedagogy, considering also intercultural factors and Adult Education. Moreover, it incorporates the contributions of educational sciences. In terms of sources, it is based on the studies, research and projects in the field, while, at a methodological level, it stems from an investigative approach centered on the dialogue between theory and praxis. Its aim is to offer possible lines of evolution and unchartered bases for educational planning.
