Abstract
This paper presents the first step of the Autonomous Region of Sardinia new strategy to reduce early school leaving. The project will develop along a three-year period and school drop-out will be dealt with from various angles. The objectives are to improve students basic skills, to enlarge school offer by introducing Didactic Laboratories by means of the organization of extracurricular activities based on innovative technologies and to offer psychological support to students (lines A, B and C). In this paper we shall concentrate on Line B. The seven laboratories developed for Line B were conceived to take advantage of student’s interest for technology and to increase their motivation to stay at school and reduce school disaffection, building at the same time a bridge between participating schools and the Sardinian economic actors.
