Design, translation and adaptation of a socio-cultural interview with teachers on learning to learn

We addressed the design of an interview focused on the cultural perspective of learning to learn (L2L), developed as part of a project coordinated by the Italian National Institute for Educational Evaluation of Instruction and Training and carried out in six European and Latin American countries (Spain and Italy, Brazil, Ecuador, Mexico and Uruguay). The process of elaboration, translation and adaptation of the instrument is described from a general approach. This was made up of nine thematic nuclei where L2L was outlined from three categories: sense making, coping with the uncertainty and self-confidence. The final version of the interview is considered as a result that challenges the sharing of a multi-local study object according to an intercultural research perspective. The study tries to identify the connotation of L2L according to the culture of belonging in teachers of students of 5, 10, 13 and 15 years. The results are expected to benefit the educational research by providing useful empirical evidence for studies framed in this perspective and contribute to the design of educational policies and teacher training based on the identification of good teaching practices of L2L.
