Abstract

La diffusione dei corsi accademici in modalità blended fa emergere da un lato la necessità di esplicitare il significato dell’espressione “didattica mista”, andando anche oltre l’inevitabile sinteticità della definizione proposta dall’ANVUR, e dall’altro l’urgenza di elaborare un adeguato quadro di riferimento (framework) in grado di orientare il complesso processo di valutazione di questa nuova modalità della didattica universitaria. La percezione degli studenti costituisce da sempre uno degli aspetti più importanti da considerare nel momento in cui si decide di valutare la didattica. Scopo del contributo è quello di descrivere il metodo e i risultati di un’indagine condotta su un campione di studenti iscritti ai quattro Corsi di Studio dell’Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia (UNIMORE) erogati in modalità mista (blended).
