Case study
Validation with one Chinese PhD student (C1 CEFR level) of Linguistics and Italian language.
The material was understandable, the instructions on how to draw the activity were well explained, especially the step-by-step activity part, in addition there was also a case study on Chinese secondary school students. To read a real specific case, even if of different ages from what was in the instructions, makes easier to understand what needs to be done.
The resource was motivating, interesting, and more useful than a normal study, something new facilitates concentration; however, it also depends on the topic chosen whether or not it is of interest. In the case produced (lesson on "The mountain"), it could be less interesting for younger people (and also too difficult), and should consequently be adapted. I thought of the Erasmus students from Unibo who like to travel to the mountains and are young adults, so they have to prepare the trip, study the itinerary, imagine the destination and create a connection with the landscape. However, the topic itself is transversal if adapted to age.
The given material was complete, the activity explained step by step was very useful.
The texts of the resources seemed clear and correct to me, maybe there were errors, but I didn't see them.
Student's personal comment: in my opinion, this activity can only be done once, because it requires a lot of time to be prepared for the teacher, but also for the student. To sum up, it was an interesting activity, because it was innovative for me.
