Abstract
This paper starting from the consideration that the University is not immune to the social changes that we are experiencing and that has to deal with the new training requests made by young students, and a hitherto unknown public university education. These new instances come from adults who require different forms of access to knowledge, diversified and flexible time, manner and place. The University of Ferrara is reflecting on the issues and problems raised so; in particular the University Estense is considering how to continue to effectively research and experimentation developed through a dedicated center since 1997, in the context of innovation in teaching. In this research, from reflections on the modification of the social framework, has begun a reflection on MOOC and OER as an opportunity given, especially to adults, to explore, adapt and increase their knowledge in a “life long learning “.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
