Il presente contributo illustra lo stato dell’arte nei paesi dell’Unione Europea rispetto alle possibilità di intervento attraverso corsi online di libera fruizione (MOOC) per l’inclusione economica e sociale di giovani non inseriti in percorsi educativi, formativi o professionali (NEET). Scopo dell’indagine è individuare e confrontare buone pratiche e modelli didattici finalizzati al contrasto delle vulnerabilità sociali ed economiche dei giovani. La revisione sistematica, condotta su database generalisti e più propriamente educativi, ha rivelato la scarsa relazione in letteratura dei due temi, ciascuno peraltro oggetto di ricerche articolate solo di recente. Il campo d’indagine è quindi aperto ed invita ad una riflessione ulteriore sui possibili sviluppi. L’incontro tra necessità dei NEET e delle aziende, la motivazione durante il percorso, il mantenimento di un equilibrio tra e-learning e presenza, il coinvolgimento di tutor per tutto il percorso, e il rapporto con gli stakeholder restano i problemi principali rilevati nei diversi studi esaminati.

Abstract

This paper shows the state of the art regarding the possibilities of intervention for the economic and social inclusion of young people Not engaged in Employment, Education, or Training (NEET) through Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) in the countries of the European Union, in order to identify and compare good practices and didactic models aimed to contrast the social and economic vulnerabilities of young people. The systematic review, carried out on both generalist and more properly educational databases, has revealed the poor relationship between the two topics in literature, each one moreover only recently made the subject of articulated research. The field of study is therefore open and invites further reflection on its possible developments. Matching NEETs’ needs and business companies’ requirements, students’ motivation during the learning path, keeping balance between e-learning and face-to-face lectures, tutors’ involvement along the course, and relationships with stakeholders remain the main issues identified in the various papers reviewed.
