Insegnanti, comunità scolastica e pandemia: conseguenze e poste in gioco

Abstract

Interrogating historical memories proves to be meaningful both for analyzing their stratification and for studying them in their creating process. Following this perspective, indagating how ways of lives were affected by Covid-19 epidemy let us discover which outcomes are determined by a traumatic event and how possible criticities can be treated. Such an assumption must be considered in approaching how school was influenced by epidemy and lockdown: these events, indeed, nourished social, economic and cultural inequalities already developed thut last decades. This paper aims at analysing teachers’ pedagogical resilience and attitudes as recorded by interview realized for the project “Vita ed educazione ai tempi del covid-19” led by the University of Florence. Teachers (almost of all, the youngest and the precarious ones) felt abandoned by the State in facing epidemy; this awareness let them enforce the emotive and relational dimension.
