To reduce early school leaving and promote inclusion at the start of the project, some needs to be met were identified, which saw 33 teachers as direct participants of the project, but students as final beneficiaries: a) carry out didactic-methodological training aimed at acquiring effective strategies and good practices to encourage students to develop an effective study method. Particular attention was paid to personal, social and learning skills, i.e. the ability to reflect on oneself, to manage time and information effectively, to work constructively with others, to cope with uncertainty and complexity; b) acquire methodologies in personalized and active teaching, aimed at students with special educational needs (students with SEN, with inadequate skills in the Italian language, with socio-emotional problems), to allow them to integrate into the class/school context by developing skills training and socialization programs that can also be spent at the end of the school and educational pathway; c) dealing with international realities to satisfy, through comparison with other EU countries, that need to identify the strengths and weaknesses of one's actions.
In the 2019 Self-Assessment Report (RAV) and in the Improvement Plan (PDM) 2019/22, Istituto di Istruzione Superiore "Malignani" of Udine had highlighted two critical issues in which a greater need for action was felt: 1) FIGHT AGAINST SCHOOL DROPPING and 2) INCLUSION. In this sense, the analysis of the report of the Function "Electronic Register" for the 2018/19 school year highlighted how a high number of students, in the first two-year of school, reported failure at various levels: students attending the first class (19.5% not admitted; 30.2% admitted with suspended judgment); students attending the second class (5.3% not admitted; 20.9% admitted with suspended judgement). The "WIN-WIN" project was, therefore, specifically oriented to address these two urgent priorities: the main objective was to encourage - in a more dynamic, stimulating and innovative EU and international dimension - flexible and personalized teaching methodologies and strengthening to welcome, motivate and strengthen the weakest targets of the school community.
