Content

  • Description and analysis of the fundamental axes of analysis of the practice of psychosocial intervention: theoretical, epistemological, methodological, technological and relational.
  • Presentation of specific cases of professional practice by teachers, taking into account actors, the definition of social problems, intervention methodologies, and evaluation systems.
  • Presentation, by the students, of their intervention projects linked to external placements.
  • Analysis of professional activity based on the theoretical and methodological models implemented in the different placements undertaken by the students.

Methodology

The teaching methodology is based on the analysis of cases, based on the following axes:

  • Theoretical
  • Epistemological
  • Methodological
  • Technological
  • Relational

The analysis of cases will be carried out by the teachers (3 sessions) and by the students (4 sessions).

In the case of the analyses carried out by students, they will have to be based on their experiences on the master’s degree placements. Students who, for exceptional reasons, have not carried out their placement should consult the Module 5c coordinator regarding this.

Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
