The integration of cognitive and non-cognitive skills into the curriculum4

Berta Martini, Francesca Casadei

Following the enactment of Law No. 22 of 19 February 2025, which officially introduces the development of non-cognitive and transversal skills in the curricula of educational institutions, there is an urgent need to reflect on how these skills can be promoted in schools without making them the subject of additional teaching. The Article addresses the issue from a curricular perspective and puts forward the hypothesis that cognitive, non-cognitive and transversal skills can be more easily integrated if open curricular architectures are built, structured on a network model.
