Scuola secondaria di I grado P. Mattarella, part of Istituto Comprensivo 3 in Modena, Italy, is at the forefront of integrating digital technology into the learning environment. With a student population of 285 across 12 classes, the school is housed in a modern, flexible building designed to support a variety of educational activities and extracurricular events. The school’s innovative approach to space design, combined with a structured digital curriculum, allows for the use of one-to-one digital devices, including Chromebooks for all secondary school students. This digital strategy is complemented by specialised learning environments such as robotics, art, and music labs, which foster interdisciplinary learning.
The school’s forward-thinking digital curriculum, called Digimeter, is a key component of its mission to engage students in multidisciplinary learning. This curriculum includes advanced modules in areas like artificial intelligence, developed in collaboration with external partners. By blending digital tools with traditional subjects, Scuola Mattarella aims to create an immersive learning environment where students actively engage in exploring technology while developing critical digital skills. The school’s continuous efforts to refine its digital strategies through collaboration with teachers, external experts, and the local community make it a model for digital education in Italy.
