Objective

The aim is to promote the recovery of local traditions and historical memory, linked to the automotive industry and manufacturing culture of the Alto Milanese..

The project aims at the effective integration between the industrial/production dimension and the school world, in order to experiment in particular "good practices", as well as to build and refine effective training models for professional integration, which allow students to :

  • to orientate oneself with respect to the choice of professional areas of different types through direct experience;
  • discover and consolidate the knowledge of local and territorial professional vocations

The replicability is configured as one of the cornerstones of the design experience, through the systematic collection and rationalization of "products", as well as the "processes" of construction of the project.

Result

The students were engaged in classroom and internship teaching activities; the class operated in the SENSITIVITY dimension, working in a cooperative mode on the theme of Italian car museums linked to prestigious car manufacturers, so as to be able to more fully evaluate the museum reality of FRATELLI COZZI.

In this direction, Museo FRATELLI COZZI has promoted a series of interventions ad hoc The course was held in the classroom and at its own premises, so as to give concrete form to formative experiences of profound value; moreover, it started an internship activity that involved some students of the class in question.

Before starting the school-to-work alternation at the Fratelli Cozzi Museum I expected a useful but not stimulating experience, I thought I would simply have to do the "assigned tasks", understand what the world of work was like but still be outside those who would be my colleagues, I expected to have no responsibilities and to have to do the most basic things.

The experience at the Fratelli Cozzi Museum was really useful to get to know the world of work; from the first day everything was different from what I expected, instead of dealing with accounting I was immediately entrusted with activities more related to marketing and during these 3 weeks I took care of creating the instagram account, writing articles for websites, helping during an event and after learning to use WordPress also edit articles of the official website of the Museum.
After the first few days I received a lot of trust from my colleagues so I was able to personally edit the website and Facebook account, I was also given responsibilities such as the creation of a Power Point presentation that would be shown during an event, I was also involved in a "long term" project so even after the end of the work experience I was asked if possible to participate in events and help in the creation of merchandising by doing market research and surveys.

Commentary by the Museum Director

The pupils worked hard on every task they were given, were bright, curious and always helpful.

They were able to have different experiences with different degrees of autonomy.

Polite, respectful, friendly and full of initiative, they were for a fortnight an invaluable support both in practical activities and in the more planning and creative part. The collaboration with the children will continue in the coming months with the management of the Museum's Instagram page.
