Abstract

During phase 2 of the COVID emergency, Rai and the Ministry of Education signed an agreement called #lascuolanonsiferma. The purpose of this study is to deepen and analyze “Diario di casa”, a program that aimed to inform the children of the school and their families about the coronavirus emergency. “Home diary” is an educational program for children, but also for adults. The analysis was conducted on 7 episodes of the program using Voicethread to comment, in an interactive way, each episode following a shared observation grid that also highlighted the psycho-pedagogical aspects.
