Title: How develop intercultural curriculum in learning process. Some issues and considerations

Abstract: In both education in general and learning processes in particular, there is an increasing recognition of the need to develop students' intercultural competence. The development of this competence poses a range of theoretical and practical challenges. In thisarticle, it is emphasize the need of developing an intercultural curriculum, considering and discussing steps and dimensions of curriculum. It's introduced an example of description of languages learning within an intercultural orientation and a model for understanding assessment. Consequently, it is introduced and discussed the construct, towards a conceptualisation. Following, it is considered the issues in eliciting intercultural competence in a proposed framework that includes assessment as both performance. The framework is composed by four interrelated processes Conceptualising (What to assess); Eliciting (How to elicit); Judging (How to judge) and Validating (How to justify). In the end, it's emphasized the challenge put by the need of not just looking for easy ways to assess but to expand the repertoire of learning to accommodate a more complex view of processes learning that includes the development of intercultural competence.

Title: Come sviluppare il curriculum interculturale nel processo di apprendimento.Alcuni problemi e considerazioni

Abstract: Sia nell'educazione in general che nei processi di apprendimento in particolare, vi è un crescente riconoscimento della necessità di sviluppare negli studenti la competenza interculturale.Lo sviluppo di una tale competenza pone le basi di una serie di sfide sia teoriche sia pratiche. In questo articolo si sottolinea la necessità di sviluppare un curriculum interculturale, considerando e discutendo gli steps e dimensioni necessari per tale obiettivo. Viene quindi introdotto un esempio di descrizione dell'apprendimento delle lingue con un'orientamento interculturale, nonché le modalità per capire la valutazione come parte finale del processo di implementazione di un siffatto curriculum. Successivamente,si discuttono i costrutti relativi alla costruzione di un curriculum interculturale, puntando alla concettualizzazione. Infine, vengono considerati i fattori coinvolti nella formazione della competenza interculturale, proponendo quindi un framework che includa la valutazione e performance come parti componenti essenziali di un curriculum interculturale, che mira soprattutto ad una formazione per competenze con un focus interculturale. Tale framework si compone di quattro processi interrelati: concettualizzazione(come valutare la competenza interculturale attraverso la descrizione della stessa); Stimolo (come stimolare, considerando le dimensioni prima generate, lo sviluppo della competenza interculturale); Giudizio (come giudicare lo sviluppo dellacompetenza interculturale) e validazione (come validare la competenza interculturale acquisita in diversi contesti sociali di apprendimento).
