MONITORAGGIO INDIRE:TREND POSITIVO NONOSTANTE TUTTO.
Nonostante le sempre più limitate risorse (si confrontino I 26,8 milioni del 2012 con i 20,6 milioni del 2013 dei finanziamenti Miur destinati all’alternanza scuola-lavoro) il 43,5% delle scuole superiori ha utilizzato l’alternanza: 2.361 istituti, di cui il 43,4% sono professionali, il 37,3% tecnici, il 13,3% licei, soprattutto scientifici. I 10.279 percorsi hanno coinvolto 210.506 studenti, il 10,7% degli alunni delle superiori, e sono stati realizzati per oltre la metà nei professionali, anche se quelli svolti nei tecnici e nei licei sono in netta crescita: rispettivamente +19,6% e +35,4%. Però è guardando alle 126.003 strutture ospitanti che emerge il dato più interessante: il 43,8% sono imprese, +21,6% in un solo anno. Antonella Zuccaro (lNDIRE), a.s.2013-14
FONDI ERASMUS+
Alternanza scuola-lavoro, le scuole preferiscono finanziarla con i fondi del Miur, che però in un anno sono stati ridotti di 6 milioni. E alcuni istituti hanno già cominciato a usufruire dei fondi Eramus+, il nuovo programma dell’Unione Europea per l’istruzione, la formazione, la gioventù, e lo sport per il periodo 2014-2020.

ATTIVISMO E AZIONE 72 ORE
“I AM A 72H VOLUNTEER”
di Benedetta Bibiani 4A (scientifico)
I was glad to attend the “72 hours Action”. It’s a voluntary activity of social service organised by young people who are mostly university students. This year it was the fifth edition of this project. First, you were asked whether you wanted to participate as a group (from a minimum of 5 people to a maximum of 10 people) or as a single person. I decided to participate as a group so I registered with other BRUNO – FRANCHETTI students. At the moment of registration, we received an email that asked us which category we were interested in, for example “kids”, “migrants and refugees”, “disabled people” and many more. My group chose “protecting the environment.”
Most of the 730 students from the whole of metropolitan city of Venice attended this youth project.
The project started with a launch from Ferretto Square, in the heart of Mestre, my city. We met up with 2 other groups of students. There were 20 of us altogether. At 14.45 our referee told us that we were going to work in Salzano and Robegano for the next 3 days. We got to Salzano (15km away from Mestre) by coach and we were hosted in the boy scouts’ dorm rooms near the church. The deputy mayor gave us a warm welcome to Salzano and explained us the details of our job, which would start the following day. We were to clear the local cemeteries for All Saints’ Day.
On the 30th October we started work at 9am at the Salzano cemetery. We cleaned out the garbage in the moat, we removed grass from the pavement and we trimmed the hedges. In the afternoon we were divided into two groups and given different tasks. In the evening we ate at a pizzeria. The sponsors offered pizza to us.
On the 31st of October we cleaned up in Robegano, the suburbs of Salzano. We picked up 15 big sacks of garden waste in the cemetery. The deputy mayor said that we did a really good job. In the evening we were offered pizza.
On the 1st of November we divided into two groups and removed grass from the pavements. The deputy mayor gave us a piece of homemade cake! She was really active in volunteering. In fact, she helped people in South America and in Africa for months. I also liked the atmosphere she created. She never frowned at us saying how we had to work but she kindly encouraged us and gave us practical help!
In the afternoon the coach took us back to our Venice meeting place (AQUAE EXPO) where the organisation gave a party.
I found it all very organised and efficient, it was a really funny and good experience. Fortunately in 72 days, we will all meet up again for a big party!
It was nice to get together and help out. I am sure I’ll do it again and I met really kind people and citizens. Most of them asked us questions like, “are you a volunteer?” and “how old are you?” and added, “do you want something to drink?”
It was a really good experience that I would like to recommend to all my friends.
