Ambienti digitali per lo sviluppo delle competenze trasversali nella didattica universitaria

International studies shows that in the universitary teaching is becoming increasingly widespread use of digital environments that integrated traditional teaching. In this paper we consider the contribution that can be offered by online environments to develop in students a positive and proactive dimension to the academic curriculum, so as to reduce the drop-out, encourage greater regularity in the academic career, develop transversal competences and promote the orientation. In particular we observe the activities online in academic year 2013/14 done by the students of General Didactic, a course of study established at the Department of Educational Sciences of the University of Roma Tre. These activities include the realization of two online laboratory: completion of the QSA (Questionnaire for Learning Strategies); participation in a cooperative online learning practice. In both experiences we analyzed the procedures and outcomes.
